To Catch a Thief, Part 1

Jeff noticed a ring on the floor close to his workstation, but after conferring with Les, he chalked it up as a clumsy accident. However, his suspicions were heighened when he found some scrap jewelry on the floor, leading to he and Les to conclude that an American Jewelry employee is a thief. After a check on the security cameras yielded nothing due to technical problems, Jeff decides to create a sting operation as a way to catch the thief in the act. Also: an unruly customer threatens Les with death, resulting in a call to the Detroit Police Department when security found him too tough to handle. And Seth wonders if they can sell a pair of size 21 sneakers worn by Shaquille O'Neal, which are taking up a lot of space on the sports shelf -- along with some sports jerseys.

Quando alcuni articoli scompaiono dal negozio, Les chiude tutto a chiave nel tentativo di scoprire il ladro. Lo troverà?

Der 60-Zoll-Fernseher könnte Dellen oder Kratzer haben, ein Foto reicht daher nicht aus. Wenn Pawn-Shop-Manager Seth seinem Kunden im „American Jewelry and Loan“ eine Kreditsumme nennen soll, muss er das Gerät zuvor gründlich in Augenschein nehmen. Ansonsten kann er den Betrag nur schätzen – ohne jegliche Garantie. Das klingt vollkommen logisch. Trotzdem reagiert der junge Mann ungehalten und verlangt obendrein, dass man ihm seine Benzinkosten erstattet. Selbstredend bezahlen ihm die Pfandleiher keinen Cent.
