17. The Seven Year Wretch

While waiting in line for his unemployment check, George Appleby (Red) meets Archie Moore, also out of work. A man sells him a trained Bear, which he puts in a take-on-all-comers boxing show in a carnival. Moore shows up to challenge the bear. Red's silent spot pantomime involves a Holmesian detective chasing a hooded bad guy around a spooky house-type set.
