Five big ones just for lifting a a little blue box? A steal - or so Bernie thought until he got stiffed with a corpse! Bernie should have taken a powder the minute the shifty-eyed,pear-shaped man made his offer. But five grand an hour is nice work if you can get it. Things went smoothly even after the cops showed up. A little bribe here; a handshake there. Until one of the cops stumbled over the body. Faster than you could say "STOP THIEF," Bernie ran - straight into the arms of a deliciously nutty young woman. That's when the caper really got interesting!
