Charlotte sat down at the computer and began working on hacking into the Met's security system. The team watched as she typed away, her fingers moving quickly over the keyboard. It took about two hours, but finally, Charlotte let out a triumphant laugh. "Jesus, about time," she exclaimed. "No wonder you had issues with that, Nine," she said, turning to face the team.

They all crowded around her, peering at the screen. "Wow," Constance said, impressed. "That's amazing."

"It's even better than we thought," Debbie added, smiling.

Constance grinned. "This calls for a celebration," she said.

Tammy rolled her eyes. "You think everything calls for a celebration as long as it involves alcohol," she scolded.

The team laughed and Tammy shook her head. "Sometimes I feel like I'm living with a bunch of kids instead of adults," she said.

Debbie just smiled at her, fondness in her eyes. She had always liked Tammy and since Tammy was divorced, Debbie hoped that maybe they could reconnect on a romantic level, not just professionally.

Lou noticed Debbie's expression and was happy for her friend. It hadn't been easy for Debbie when she and Tammy grew apart and went their separate ways.

Constance brought out some shots and they all had fun, watching a silly TV show that Rose liked to watch. During the show, Charlotte leaned over to whisper to Lou.

"What's going on between Debbie and Tammy?" she asked, nodding towards the two women who were looking at each other like lovesick puppies.

Lou smiled. "It's a long story," she said. "But they have history."

Charlotte raised an eyebrow. "Really?" she said, intrigued.

Lou nodded. "We can talk about it later," she said.

After the TV show ended, they all got back to work, planning the next steps of their heist.
