"The Green Terror"
Why did you disobey the rules? You know the rules. Every bank in the city received a copy of them after that first robbery with the fear-ray machine. You were under strict orders not to admit any depositor to the bank who carried a suitcase, a box, or a parcel of any kind larger than six inches square. Why did you break that rule?
