When Laverne and Shirley assume they've been passed over for a customary raise, Laverne writes and sends a strongly worded letter to their boss, Mr. Hildebrand, against Shirley's frantic advice. Soon after, the girls learn that they haven't been passed over for the raise at all; they've actually given a *larger* raise than is customary. They also learn that Hildebrand hasn't read the letter. To save their raises and their jobs, the girls decide it's time to pull an over-night heist, breaking into the Mr. Hildebrand's office after hours to retrieve it. They fashion an elaborate plan with the help of the boys (dressed up in incredible tree costumes), Carmine, Frank and Edna. Will they succeed? Or will they find themselves on the unemployment line?

On pod, we take the tangential approach, talk about the physical stunts on display, and discuss how this 2-parter fits into the greater genre of capers in movie history.
