Molly leaned over the blueprint of the municipal community center, her brow furrowed beneath a sequined beret. We strike at twelve hundred hours, she whispered. Bill adjusted his ill-fitting ninja mask, which kept sliding down to obscure his nose. Are you sure about this, Molly? It feels wrong. It is a fortress of deceit, Bill. Do not let the pastel balloons fool you. It is a five-year-old’s birthday party, Molly. And it is sitting on a goldmine of artisanal juice boxes, imported bouncy-castle helium, and three hundred units of un-redeemed Chuck E. Cheese tickets. Those belong to toddlers, Molly. Acquisitions do not discriminate by age, Bill. Now, focus. The perimeter is guarded by a feral horde of sugar-addicted cherubs. They are armed with juice cannons and zero impulse control. How do we bypass the birthday boy? Sir Reginald Pipsqueak the Third? We use the ultimate distraction. A rogue piñata filled with gluten-free artisanal trail mix. Brutal. But it just might work. What about the parents? Stationed near the mimosa bowl, hopelessly trapped in a conversation about sleep regressions. They are non-threats. Our target is the Great Mountain of Wrapped Cardboard in the corner. The loot. The loot. I want the remote-controlled monster truck, the laser tag set, and whatever the aunt from Ohio bought that rattles suspiciously like imported Swiss chocolate. And the security system? A terrifying beast known only as Uncle Gary, who fancies himself an amateur magician. He will be performing card tricks in the conservatory. We have a three-minute window while he attempts to pull a live pigeon from his armpit. I still think we should have stuck to robbing banks. Banks don’t scream when you steal their favorite plushies. Banks don’t have bouncy castles, Bill. Where is your sense of adventure? My sense of adventure was left in the getaway van, alongside my dignity. Check your ninja mask, we are moving in. Lead the way. But if I get hit by a Nerf dart, I am demanding danger pay. There is no danger pay, only glory, and possibly a slice of funfetti cake if we work quickly. Funfetti changes things. I knew you were a professional at heart. Remember, take the big boxes first. Leave the coloring books for the amateurs.
