Molly spread the birthday invitation across their kitchen table, weighting its corners with overdue bills and a sausage roll. The target was seven, fond of dinosaurs, and apparently supported by relatives with alarming disposable income. Thirty presents, according to Bill’s reconnaissance, which consisted of lurking beside the bakery and pretending to understand fondant. “We enter as clowns,” Molly said. Bill stared at her diagram. The getaway van had eyelashes. “I refuse balloon trousers.” His previous encounter with inflatable clothing had ended with a puncture, a police caution, and an unexplained fear of geese. “Then carry the cake.” Molly tapped the drawing’s treasure pile. Their plan required confidence, two oversized gift bags, and the moral flexibility of supermarket wrapping paper. “And steal every present?” “Even the singing dinosaur.” Bill sighed. He had joined organized crime expecting casinos, diamonds, perhaps a dramatic helicopter. Instead, Saturday’s operation involved juice boxes and a host named Grandma Sheila, whose invitation promised vigorous audience participation. Molly produced two red noses. Outside, their van coughed like an elderly magician. Inside, Bill studied the party schedule and discovered the obstacle neither criminal had anticipated: before anyone received cake, every guest had to perform the chicken dance. Twice. Enthusiastically.
