The suburban house vibrated with the force of thirty screaming children and a hired entertainer whose voice had reached frequencies previously unknown to science. From behind a perfectly manicured hedge, Molly and Bill watched through binoculars. “My god,” Bill whispered. “It’s a fortress. The target is the pile. Ten o’clock, corner of the living room. Looks like at least two dozen wrapped parcels.” “I see it,” Molly said, lowering her own binoculars. “It’s the motherlode. Unattended. A weak underbelly of pure, unadulterated loot.” “The weak underbelly is covered in sticky hands and flying cake crumbs. How do we get in?” Molly tapped her temple. “Professionalism, Bill. We integrate. We pose as entertainers.” “They already have a guy in a dragon suit. He looks dead inside.” “Exactly. We’re an upgrade. We’re the ‘Magic & Mayhem’ duo. We’ll need a rabbit—“ she glanced around, “—and a saw. A big one. For the trick.” “A saw? At a party for a five-year-old named ‘Cayden’?” “It’s called showmanship. While they’re distracted by my perilous sawing in half, you, as my assistant, will create a diversion.” “What kind of diversion?” “You’ll trip. spectacularly. Over the presents. They’ll scatter. You’ll be horribly embarrassed.” “And then?” “And then we bag the scattered loot and flee in the ensuing confusion. Simple. Elegant.” Bill stared at the pulsating windows of the house. “Molly, I feel I must point out the plan has two major flaws. First, we don’t have a rabbit. Second, my mother banned me from wearing fake mustaches after the ‘incident’.” “Details,” Molly dismissed, pulling a floppy top hat from her bag. “Improvisation is the heart of the craft. Now, you need to look helpless and accident-prone. Practice falling.” Bill sighed and executed a truly pathetic, unconvincing stumble. “Like this?” “Perfect,” Molly beamed. “You’re a natural. We’re going to steal so many presents.”
