The Unthinkable

Walt Robinson, an electrical engineer out of work for 18 months, takes over the housework, begrudgingly, when his wife, Roxanne, gets a job as an assistant manager of a bank. While playing with his children in a park, Walt meets Phil, an unemployed architect, and together they start planning the heist of the bank where Roxanne works. They pull it off beautifully, except for one minor detail, which soon becomes a major one when the police start their investigation.
