Synopsis for "Fireman, Burn My Child!"
An arsonist buys a fire truck so that he can extort the residents of a small town to pay him large amounts of cash to put out the fires that he starts. When he lets a little girl burn to death because her father can't pay the fee, the townsfolk have decided they've had enough and form a mob. The arsonist shoots his two goons so he doesn't have to share the loot and high tails it out of town. He gets into an auto accident and is afraid that he's going to burn to death in the car, but an ambulance picks him up. He wonders where it came from as there are no ambulances nearby. The ambulance drives him to a hospital, which shouldn't be there, as there are no local hospitals either. The medical staff perform extensive surgery upon him, and when he comes out of surgery, he is told his bill for the blood, new organs and appendages is one hundred twenty five thousand dollars. He tells them that he had money in the car, but the doctor says any money in the car is burned up. He asks them to give him time to raise the money, but the doctor says they can't afford to work on credit. They take back everything they gave him.
