could he? This is one of the humor-oriented episodes, as the wacky music will reveal. His boss Stark apparently agreed(presumably after his Mark II came to a safe landing), so now he has to convince Morrisey(Hartman, who does well with the comedic material, physical and verbal alike), and then it's a wash! Because. He's sure he has it now, however: having the best safe-cracker see if he can open the most recent box, in front of a crowd including policemen and reporters. most of them are about space travel, which, to be fair, was on everybody's mind at the time. Harrison(played enthusiastically by Webber) Fell(someone really should help him back up), an ad exec, has not had a good idea for a campaign for months(personally, I think it's because all his time is spent thinking up more or less fitting metaphors for seemingly every situation he's in that relates to his job being done successfully. All the principal character names remained the same, but in keeping with the filmmakers' country of origin, the prize offered by the Holdwell Company was twenty five thousand British pounds, which approximates America's fifty grand. If the security guard bump wasn't made so obvious, this would have been a more satisfying episode, because once it happens, the viewer's antenna goes up as if to say, what gives? This story seemed awful familiar to me, so I went back and checked my prior reviews to find that it was only about six months ago that I watched the story titled 'Operation Safecrack' as part of the Eighties British anthology series 'Tales of the Unexpected'. With all those witnesses present to see if Sammy can crack the '801 Burglar Proof' box, it never occurred to anyone that a master safecracker might also have a secondary sideline as a pickpocket. There's a pretty significant 'tell' in the story when Morrissey (Paul Hartman) bumps the security guard holding the fifty-thousand-dollar challenge envelope about to be locked in the Holdwell Safe Company's newest and most impregnable offering. I did predict the outcome during one scene but it still worked well and it sure is worth seeing. And, while the safe cracker isn't able to crack the safe, he is successful! What does this mean? See the show. When the event takes place, there are a lot of folks from the press there to witness the three hour challenge. If he can open it, he can have the $50,000 locked inside of it. Their new safe is supposedly impossible to crack.and they'll arrange to have the world's best safe cracker try his hand at it (Paul Hartman). The episode begins with a couple of executives (Robert Webber and Whit Bissell) for a safe company talking about a publicity stunt one of them has created. However, in his younger years he and his wife did a dandy stage dancing act and he made a variety of episodes of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" which were quite aning his boring acting seemed to be because he was given a dull character. Paul Hartman was a very boring actor.or, at least when he was on the later seasons of "The Andy Griffith Show" as well as "Mayberry RFD".
