At Philadelphia Mutual Savings Bank, a group of men led by Agent Mitchell Loeb break in and use a machine to make the bank vault wall possible to move through. Several men pass through the wall and steal a safe deposit box numbered 610. One of the men is unable to make it back through however before the wall solidifies again, and he is left stuck inside the wall; Loeb shoots him in the head to prevent him from talking, and they leave.
