“Are you insane?” Molly whispered, clutching her ski mask like it owed her money. “No,” Bill said, adjusting his belt full of glitter glue sticks. “I’m *inspired*.” “You cannot break into a seven-year-old’s birthday party. That’s not a heist. That’s a war crime.” “It’s not breaking in if the invitation says ‘open bar’—for parents.” “That’s not even the same bar! It’s a juice bar! With tiny napkins!” “Which means security is minimal. Kids cry at loud noises. No alarms. No guard dogs. Just clowns and moral decay.” “Bill, we’ll be mobbed by sugar-crazed gremlins with cupcake breath.” “Then we go in during nap time. Tactical snooze window. Ten minutes, tops.” “And the clown?” “We offer him union rates. He becomes an asset.” “A *clown*? Bill, he has a red nose and a tiny car. That’s not an accomplice, that’s a psychological trigger.” “He drives straight to the getaway van.” “Now you want a *getaway clown*?” “Look, the loot is stacked: bikes, tablets, Build-A-Bears with emotional attachments. That’s emotional leverage. We’re not stealing gifts—we’re liberating them.” “From a piñata?” “Especially from a piñata. Think of the candy! Unmonitored, unregistered, unaccounted-for candy!” “You’re deranged.” “And you’re underdressed. Where’s your clown nose?” “I’m not wearing a nose.” “Then you’re not coming.” “Fine. But if I get attacked by a singing cake, I’m divorcing you.” “Deal. Now grab the face paint. Operation Pin the Theft on the Donkey is a go.”
