Harry In Your Pocket

Ray Houlihan (Michael Sarrazin) is an amateur pickpocket making various, obviously-inept attempts to steal watches and wallets in Seattle's Union Station. Ray promises to help her get back on the road, but his way of raising funds is to sell his inventory of stolen watches. As a favor, the fence tips Ray off to the presence of a recruiter for a "wire mob" – a traveling professional pickpocketing band – in town. The mob travels from Seattle to Victoria BC to Salt Lake City, becoming progressively more adept in their roles.
