Is there a name for the trope/device for when a team comes together on their way to a heist/takedown/job?
The scene usually starts with a shot of the leader of the team shown from the front, walking in slow-motion. Along the way, the rest of the team appears from around corners or through doors and joins the leader. The scene ends when the team reaches their destination. Sometimes the leader will say something like "Showtime!" or a catchphrase or something. It establishes that the characters are ready to pull off a heist or other major plan. And they're often dressed in costumes different from their regular attire.
I've seen this in several TV shows and movies, but the one that most often comes to mind is from s07e15 of ST:DS 9 "Badda-bing, Badda-bang". There's a photo on this page: http://memory-alpha.wikia.com/wiki/Badda-Bing,_Badda-Bang_(episode)
