The Cool Kids follows a group of friends residing in a retirement community who refuse to let age get in the way of their fun. In season 1 episode 6 titled "TV Heist," the group decides to steal a brand new television from a rival retirement community before their own facility receives one. The four seniors, played by Martin Mull, David Alan Grier, Leslie Jordan, and Vicki Lawrence, plan their heist with the help of an unlikely accomplice played by guest star Patrick Duffy.

The episode begins with the group at their weekly bingo game, when they hear that a new TV is going to be delivered to a neighboring retirement community. The friends are disappointed to learn that their own community will not be receiving one anytime soon due to budget constraints. However, when they hear that the rival community is not yet aware of the TV's arrival, they decide to steal it for themselves.

Their plan involves breaking into the rival community's storage room and taking the television, but things don't go quite as smoothly as they hoped. Along the way, they have to navigate a security guard, an unexpected visit from a choir performing for the rival community, and their own nerves about getting caught. The group even has to hide out in a janitor's closet to avoid detection.

As they work to execute their plan, each character's unique personality shines through. Mull's character, Charlie, is the leader of the group and takes charge of the planning. Grier's character, Hank, is a former ladies' man who uses his charm to distract the guard. Jordan's character, Sid, is the group's resident smart aleck and provides comic relief throughout the episode. Lawrence's character, Margaret, is the feistiest of the group and proves to be the most daring member of the team.

Meanwhile, Duffy's character, Jerry, becomes an unlikely ally for the friends. Jerry is a resident of the rival community and agrees to help the group in their heist after learning a secret about one of the other residents. His participation in the plan proves to be beneficial in unexpected ways.

Ultimately, the group's heist is successful, but not without a few close calls. As they celebrate their victory, they learn that the TV wasn't actually new and that they had gone through all of that trouble for nothing. Still, the friends are happy to have pulled off the heist and enjoyed the excitement that came with it.

Overall, season 1 episode 6 of The Cool Kids delivers plenty of laughs and fun as the seniors channel their inner Ocean's 11 to steal a TV. The show's talented cast shines in this episode, with each character bringing their own unique flavor to the heist. Viewers will enjoy watching the group navigate their shenanigans and prove that age is just a number.
