The Instant Millionaires
Description
Because more space is needed in the warehouse, three employees are told to send out for an auction, a trunk unclaimed for 20 years. As they start to move it, the trunk falls open, spilling out books and $3 million in cash. Each takes $1 million and sets out to do what he’s always dreamed of doing. The only trouble is a hood knows about the trunk and the money. He believes he has more right to the cash than any of them.
Moral qualms notwithstanding, three warehouse labourers decide to share a huge stash of three million dollars that find by accident. But it fails to bring them contentment. What's more, the real felon owner might be coming after them any time!
Despite having second thoughts about right and wrong, three warehouse workers choose to split a massive pile of three million dollars they stumble upon by chance. However, the money doesn't make them happy. Even worse, the actual criminal who owns it could hunt them down at any moment!
CBS Radio Mystery Theater is a radio drama series created by Himan Brown that was broadcast on CBS Radio Network affiliates from 1974 to 1982, and later in the early 2000s was repeated by the NPR satellite feed. In New York City it was not aired by the then all-news WCBS but by its originating station, WOR, which produced and announced it as simply Radio Mystery Theater.
