The air inside the stolen ice cream truck hummed vibrato. Molly crouched behind the wheel, her knees knocking against the dashboard display of frozen dairy treats. She tapped a laminated floor plan with a grease-stained finger. The map depicted the party zone in terrifying detail: the piñata zone was marked with three skulls, and the juice box station bore a warning label scrawled in red marker that read SLIP HAZARD: CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP FLAVOR. "Alright, look at this," Molly whispered, her voice muffled by the silicone clown nose sliding over her real one. "We have a three-minute window between the piñata shattering and the inevitable juice box explosion. The parents will be distracted by the camera flash from Uncle Gary. That is our in. We need the loot, Bill." Bill slumped in the passenger seat, his posture resembling a wet rag. He wore a ski mask fashioned from a floral dishtowel. A cupcake sat cradled in his hands, one of which was a proper work glove, the other a rubber chicken duct-taped to his wrist. "What about the clown? I see a clown sketched here with a red face and sad eyes," Bill mumbled, crumbs drifting from his lips onto his camouflage vest, which was actually just green tape over a bedsheet. "The clown is a decoy," Molly hissed, swatting a crumb off the tactical map. "It's a distraction for the security system. We go in through the slide, grab the loot, and exit before the bouncy castle inflates for Round Two. Do you have the suction gloves?" Bill squeezed his appendage. The chicken emitted a wet, mournful honk. "Suction gloves. Got 'em. Also, I brought moral support. For the cause." Molly face-palmed, causing the clown nose to flip up over her forehead. She closed her eyes and inhaled slowly, counting the seconds as the engine gave a violent cough. "Bill! We are stealing high-end toys. We are not robbing a circus tent. Focus. The target is the Gold-Plated Fidget Spinner of Destiny and the drone with the thermal camera. Those are worth more than this truck." "The truck has potential," Bill argued, taking a risky bite that sent frosting speckling across the dishtowel mask. "She likes jazz. I can feel her humming along." "She runs on duct tape and hope, Bill!" Molly leaned in, her eyes manic. "But this job is the retirement trip. Once we score the presents, we liquidate on the dark web. 'Used, slightly opened, stolen by clowns' usually goes for a premium. We'll be rich in Legos." "Does 'slightly opened' count if I taste the frosting on the gift boxes?" "No!" Molly shouted, then lowered her voice as the cooling fan whirred aggressively. "No tasting. We grab, we go, we don't touch the edibles. The risk-to-reward ratio on frosting is terrible. Don't you dare drop it. Now, check your grappling hook." Bill produced a tangled mess of fishing line attached to a plastic spork. "Grappling hook is ready. Also, the spork is for scooping." Molly stared at the spork for a long, painful second. "Fine. Use the spork to unhook the gift bags. If you get caught, I'm telling everyone you did a magic trick that went wrong." "A magic trick?" Bill saluted with the spork, the chicken nodding in salute. "I love magic tricks. Does that involve the rubber chicken? It's a classic routine." "Bill, shut up. Three, two, one... go to glory."
