"Heist" is a noun that means a planned robbery! Here, they're referring to stealing something as part of a competition. It's ironic since they work at a police station, and they have fun by planning a heist to "steal" something. They don't do it illegally, though! Ex: In the movie "Oceans 8," they performed a heist to get diamond necklaces. Ex: She managed to pull off the biggest heist in history. => "pull off" means to successfully do something
