Description: In this 1956 episode of Climax, which he remade as a feature film in 1957, Red Skelton is Rusty Morgan, a clueless counterman at a greasy spoon who has been going steady with cashier Edith Enders for five years. Each time they're about to marry, Rusty manages to blow all their money on some bone-headed investment, and now he pours their entire $1,500 savings into uranium stock from the White Eagle Mines. Learning that the stock is phony, the newly-fired Rusty thinks he can make good by collecting a $10,000 reward, but the clever crooks con him into believing they're with the FBI, and leave Rusty holding the bag. Unfortunately for them, Rusty has stashed $20,000 of their ill-gotten gains in his safe deposit box, so they must break him out of prison to get it, with the authorities helping him along in order to find the real crooks.
