Lunch Kit

An employee wants to destroy the workplace where he has a job and needs to get out before his explosive device goes off. Different problems keep making him take longer to escape. This story was made before for "Suspense" on June 9, 1949 and for "The Whistler" on October 23, 1944.

Suspense is a state of anxiety or excitement caused by mysteriousness, uncertainty, doubt, or undecidedness. In a narrative work, suspense is the audience's excited anticipation about the plot or conflict, particularly as it affects a character for whom the audience feels sympathy. However, suspense is not exclusive to narratives.
