Plot

A determined thief works his way into a tall building in order to crack a safe. Unbeknownst to him, the safe he is after is home to the Pink Panther. All attempts to crack the safe are thwarted when the slick feline returns the explosive to the thief just before it explodes. Finally, the Pink Panther decides to let the persistent fool have the safe after all, which, of course, is rigged with a massive explosive.[1]

Laugh track

The Pink Panther Show contained a laugh track when the Pink Panther cartoons were broadcast on NBC-TV. Currently, the laugh-tracked version airs on the Spanish language Boomerang.
