Molly tapped the detailed blueprint of the suburban backyard with the tip of her pencil. Bill stared at the drawing helplessly, chewing thoughtfully on a piece of string cheese. "We strike at precisely two fifteen," Molly said, leaning over the map. "The cake cutting?" Bill asked, licking his sticky fingers. "Exactly," she confirmed, tapping the paper. "That is when defensive focus is at its lowest. No one watches the gift table when sugar is being distributed." "What about the target?" "Timmy is turning six. His grandparents are loaded. We are talking Lego death stars, remote-control drones, and maybe even a retro arcade cabinet." "And who is your inside source?" Bill asked, narrowing his eyes. "The juice box distributor. He sees all, Bill." "Brilliant," Bill whispered, shaking his head in awe. "But what about the perimeter security?" "The perimeter is guarded by Mrs. Higgins. She is a hover-parent of the highest order. If she spots adults without a child, we are neutralized." "I have a countermeasure for that," Bill said, pulling open a large cardboard box. "We pose as the entertainment." Molly stared at the box, her face freezing. "Please tell me you did not rent a clown suit." "I did not rent a clown suit." "Bill." "Okay, I rented a clown suit. But it is high-grade polyester, Molly!" "We are not doing the clown routine," Molly said, rubbing her aching temples. "The last time you dressed as a clown, you got stuck in a chimney." "That was a chimney-related design flaw, not a clown issue." Molly ignored his defense and sighed. "No, we stick to the bounce house strategy," she insisted, tapping the plastic castle icon. "Explain the bounce house maneuver again." "We deflate the bounce house at two ten. That sends the entire parent coalition to the rear sector to rescue the trapped children." "Is that safe?" Bill looked genuinely worried. Molly waved a hand dismissively. "They will merely slide down slowly. It is a soft-landing scenario." "And then?" "While they are rescuing young Timmy, I slip through the side gate, bag the loot, and toss it over the wooden fence to you." "And what am I doing at the fence?" "You are the wheelman. Did you acquire the getaway vehicle?" "Yes," Bill said, jingling a shiny set of keys. "A Honda Odyssey in champagne silver. We will blend right into the suburban ecosystem. I even put a stick-figure family sticker on the rear window." "Excellent. What about the guard dog?" "A golden retriever. Extremely friendly. I have packed high-grade peanut butter to compromise his loyalty." "Smooth or chunky?" Molly asked. "Smooth. We are professionals, Molly." "Good. We cannot afford any loose ends." Bill leaned closer, frowning at the tiny drawings. "One question, Molly. What do we do if the birthday boy catches us red-handed?" "We bribe him," she replied calmly. "With what?" "The Legos." "But the Legos are the prize!" Bill cried out, clutching his chest. "A necessary sacrifice to ensure the rest of the haul. Six-year-olds are highly susceptible to bribery. Now, put on your tactical cargo pants. It is showtime." He nodded slowly, reaching for his dark mask.
