A couple of crooks break into a department store at night with the intention of emptying the safe, unaware that there is a night shift operating on the premises - a security guard plus a couple of store assistants, one of whom is David Banner. They also misjudge what's actually involved in cracking the safe and essentially keep the threesome held over night, hoping that the arrival of the manager in the morning will also get them into the safe.
Ultimately a bungled theft attempt, these pair of hopeless villains were never going to get too far. They can't even keep David locked up for too long (natch). An uneven episode, there are some strange ideas (very strange in one case) intermingled with nice ones. The most bizarre sequence comes during Hulk's long stroll through the store, where he discovers some female mannequins, one of which is green and attracts his primordial attention!

This one does feature a great smash-out from an old lift shaft, and overall the pacing and intrigue makes for a moderatly entertaining story. David's colleague , Helen (Anne Lockhart, who later also appeared in the season 5 episode The Phenom), is additionally of significant appeal.
