A used car salesman takes as a trade-in a car that transports him to another planet where he becomes stranded without gas among hostile alien creatures.; A pickpocket creates a wax hand so that he can set it in his coat while his real hand does his dirty deeds. When he picks the wrong tough guy target, the guy feels his wallet being lifted and tells the thief he doesn't have time to find a cop but he is going to punish him by mashing his hand. The thief shifts his real hand inside his coat so that the wax hand takes the beating. When he's standing next to a cop on train, the resentful wax hand pulls the cop's gun and points it at the cop's partner who shoots the thief dead.; A miner trapped by a cave-in, figuring rescue impossible, confesses to his buddies that he's a murderer but then they are rescued nonetheless.; Werewolves on the moon led by a tyrant plot to conquer Earth so they send a scout that, if slain, will cause them to cancel their invasion plans. The creature is doglike enough in appearance to be found and taken in by a little girl who showers love upon him so he returns to his spaceship and pulls the self-destruct lever before heading back to his new home.
