"So, we're hitting a kid's party tonight. What could possibly go wrong?" Molly threw a screwdriver onto the table between them, and it clattered against a stack of blueprint schematics. "Achieving cartoonishly high stakes through bafflingly bad decisions, that's what. I still can't believe you talked me into this, Bill." Bill shoved a massive pile of colorful wrapping paper into a duffel bag, barely making a dent. "Hear me out. Security detail for this place is non-existent. Top-tier, state-of-the-art child containment. The doors are locked, but literally anyone could jimmie them open with a paperclip. And the prize? We're looking at minimum thirty junction boxes of pure, unadulterated birthday booty. We're talking Lego sets, robotic dogs, and Nike sneakers that glow in the dark. We're not in the scrap metal game anymore, Molly. We're in the *kids' party* game." "Those gifts probably cost more than my rent," Molly grumbled, tapping her fingers impatiently on the table. "Exactly! And whose rent is it anyway? This upper-class, trophy-wife brat. Who needs that much attention? Who needs that much *precious cargo* under her sleek little roof? We're doing her a favor. Distributing the wealth, so to speak." "There's a security guard. He's got a clicker and a sinking heart condition." "Miss Gemmings, the kid, only gets one present she actually wants: the 'Sci-Fi Explosion Interactive Trajectory Projector 3000.' Everything else her parents picked out. Plus, they've already blown ten grand on balloon animals and a magician who escaped from a box once." Molly sighed, rubbing her temples. "So we break in, grab everything that isn't plastic tiaras, and get out before the grown-ups notice the magician's switching out their children's toys for empty boxes." "It's a classic swap-out, Molly. Good old-fashioned criminal mischief. Remember the nutcracker switch at that holiday gala? You got rust for that, yes, but think of the hearts you nearly warmed." Molly eyed the collection of toys. "And you're absolutely certain the 'ginormous dragon castle' isn't just a pile of fabric and PVC pipes?" she asked, holding up a suspicious-looking item. "It's literally for conquering, Moll.' Bill grinned. "This is our time, partner. The great children's party caper of the decade. We're the ghosts of presents past, grabbing their swag and vanishing into the night!" "Nothing says 'professional thief' like a good and thorough amalgamation of children's sleepover toys." "Exactly! Now pack your rubber duck, and let's get this done!"
