About
On a supermarket shelf, a particular alarm clock keeps blaring off-hand, upsetting the staff and the customers. Eventually, it's golden frame attracts the attention of a shoplifter, who is almost caught by security because of that feature. After escaping without paying from two other stores, the thief will come face to face with a cop - also wearing a long coat similar to the thief's - and the clock will blurt up again - in the wrong pocket.
