Watch The DuPont Show of the Week online: Episode 3 Hold-Up!

This episode presents a farcical story of a plot to stage a million-dollar robbery of Historyland. Fate and their inadequacy conspire to snare the plans of Charles Hamilton, an accountant, and Max von Ritter, a safecracker, to rob Historyland, an amusement park. They plan to time the robbery with a Jesse James-type bank holdup which is staged daily in the park and to escape in the confusion between the real and fake robberies. They enlist the help of Rudy Schrieber, a dynamite expert who is virtually deaf, and Harry Fenn, an ice cream vendor who is more interested in picking pockets. They successfully pull off their scheme, but when they open up the bags, they find only passes to the park.
