Summary	Durham has a wager with Desmond that he can get rid of his 999,999 pennies. He goes to a penny arcade and is watching a picture when Desmond tries to pick his pocket and take pennies. The police see what he is doing and tells him to give the pennies back or go to jail. Durham comes home with more pennies than he went to the arcade with.
