The Beagle Boys think they have easy pickings because homes are easier than ever to break into. Unlocked windows, no burglar alarms, etc. However, the reason for the overall laxity in security is that citizens are no longer keeping their money and valuables at home. The Beagles flip the script, going straight and marketing their own brand of burglar alarms - because who would know more about burglar alarms than crooks. When their alarms get no takers, they plan to break into homes - and take nothing - just to drum up a market for their alarms. Will they become successful alarm entrepreneurs?
