I and my brothers Chris and Dan were leaving the Willowbrook Mall in Wayne, NJ when we realized that one of three display cases along the wall had a broken lock. We walked past it and talked about how funny it would be if we set up a "Clear Blue" display in there. We stopped walking.

Chris then went back and checked to see if it would open...it did. We decided to get a CD from my trunk and set up a display. Mind you: Chris and I have also had spontaneous, unannounced, 20-minutes staring contests in the mall before, so this stood to top that experience.

            As we walked out the door and toward my car, we noticed three security guards rushing on foot to the scene of an incident at the far end of the parking lot. This would be just the distraction we needed. We drove back to the entrance and Chris went in. He set up the display and was back in the car in no time. Just as the door closed with him in it, we pulled away. The security guards came back just then.
