bank are you sure you're all right of

course that's the Air Force training you

crush your plane you climb right into

another one and take off

old jet stream as good as new nerves of

Steel eyes like a hawk

I just closed the door

one thing a pilot's got to have great

peripheral vision

tricky door

good

yes

what

oh no oh no

oh bad news Chief good and bad my wife's

still unconscious oh what's the good

news

that was it but what is the bad news

well all the employees were out front

somebody robbed the bank

that's true

let you walk a little Feister

not and dragged this dog I can't

but I told you Sergeant we can't give

you a description of the robbers the

bank was empty at the time all my

employees were out front cheering and

waving Penance and

of course I have security guards but

they were out in front too carrying

balloons

I know they're supposed to carry g*ns

nothing

just a moment Margaret I'm talking to

the police good I want the it's

arrested at once this

is

what

Crazy Horse

pulling while the rest of the family

waited in the getaway truck I rescued

him just in time

I'll call you back Sean

Melbourne aren't you going to tell the

police about the attempted kidnapping

Margaret stop worrying about the dog the

bank's been Rod you simply can't put

things into perspective can you you

can't separate the important from the

unimported

oh laughs I'm so glad you're here

perhaps you can restore order out of

chaos somebody better did you know your

employees were all out in the street and

your bank was robbed yes I know that

pretty sloppy way to run a bank hear

that Melbourne Lance has been here less

than an hour and already he's put his

finger on your trouble you run a sloppy

Bang

did you give the police a description of

the Roberts no I can't I don't have one

if you're an Air Force you'd be

court-martial you hear that if you were

in the Air Force you'd be called

Marshall but I'm pretty disappointed in

the entire operation here

you hear that Melbourne Lance is

disappointed I heard him I heard I don't

mind telling you I'm uptight about this

whole setup I think I'll take the

company playing up for a spin and unwind

what company plane

do you mean to tell me that this bag

doesn't have a plane no

well how embarrassing what does a bank

need a fine for an executive Jack could

give this institution some class oh it

desperately needs car slab I could

probably pick you up a nice little jet

for half a million

not for me yeah you heard what lad said

that's how he unwinds he takes a plane

for a spin well I've got a cheaper idea

you can take a dog for a walk

I know it's hard for you Earthbound

people to understand

Melbourne via I hope you've learned

something from this meeting with Lance I

think I have I'm a city home now and

meet with the Caterers about tonight's

party what party

homecoming party for our hero oh yeah
