| Synopsis | Apollo and Muley break into a museum and are confronted by a guard, so Apollo grabbed a scepter out of a case to use as a club.

Sure enough, it does and both die. The wand next brings bad luck to a cab driver and racketeer Dippy Dugan, who is killed when he wishes for bullets to go around him. Steel Sterling retrieves the wand and returns it to the museum. |
