"So, the plan is smash the piñata, but leave the candy, take the gifts, and vanish like the tooth fairy in a recession." "Bill, we're not smashing the piñata. The piñata is a decoy." "I thought the piñata was guard duty." "No, the guard duty is Mrs. Henderson with a Bluetooth headset and a vendetta." "She hates clowns." "Exactly. So I dress as a clown." "You dress as your worst nightmare?" "I wear a frown and steal the crown." "No crowns. We're here for presents, Bill." "I brought a sack. It says 'Laundry' on the side." "Perfect. Nobody suspects laundry at a birthday party." "Exactly. I blend in with the chaos of screaming children and balloons that smell like regret." "What's the entry point?" "The bouncy castle. I enter inflated." "You can't fit in a bouncy castle with a laundry sack of Legos." "It's conceptual entry." "So it's mental trespassing." "Yes, but with gloves." "Did you bring gloves?" "I brought oven mitts. They match my theme." "Your theme is what?" "Sad magician who forgot the trick is theft." "Bill, listen. The presents are under the table with the mermaid tablecloth." "Mermaids don't have tables. They have shells." "The point is camouflage." "Got it. I pretend I'm shell-shocked." "No. You pretend you're the uncle who brought balloons." "I am the uncle. The balloons are my alibi." "Then where are the balloons?" "In my head." "So you're entering with mental balloons and mental entry?" "Correct. But the sack is real. And very heavy with imaginary presents." "Bill, I need you focused. The gifts are wrapped in dinosaurs and unicorns." "So we steal dinosaurs and unicorns." "We steal whatever's wrapped. Even if it's socks." "Socks? At a party?" "Grandmas wrap socks. It's a trap." "So we steal socks too." "Yes. We are comprehensive thieves." "Do we need a code word?" "Code word is 'Sprinkles.'" "If I say sprinkles, do I run?" "No, you freeze like you're admiring the cake." "The cake is a distraction?" "The cake is a lie. Nobody eats it until after the presents." "So we strike during present-opening?" "No! We strike before present-opening. We take them unopened." "That's heartless." "Bill, heartless is not leaving a thank-you card." "Should I write one?" "From the ghosts of party past." "Will the parents chase us?" "Parents chase everything. That's why we wear black." "I'm wearing yellow. It's cheerful deception." "You'll glow like a warning light." "I'm the warning. I'm the yellow sign that says 'Caution: Stealing Joy.'" "Bill, are you sure about this?" "I'm sure about the sack. I'm unsure about the mermaid tablecloth." "If it sparkles, avoid it." "Sparkles are dangerous?" "Sparkles are evidence." "So I avoid sparkles, avoid the cake, avoid Mrs. Henderson, and steal socks." "And dinosaurs." "And unicorns." "And mental balloons." "Yes. But mostly the sack." "Then let's go be the worst guests they've ever invited."
