Synopsis for "Forbidden!"

A boy's mother and father tell him he must never look in the closet because they have seen his bad future there. He doesn't believe them and the closet sticks in his mind even after he becomes involved in criminal activity. After serving five years in prison he is determined to find out what's in the closet so he breaks into his old home which has since been sold. He steals some money on a dresser, but before he can open the closet door, the new owner surprises him and he flees. The new owner alerts the police and the young man comes back after making sure the owner isn't around. He finally opens the closet door but there's nothing in there except a cop waiting to arrest him for a twenty year prison sentence. At first he thinks his parents lied to him since there was nothing in the closet, but then he wonders if the bad future they saw for him wasn't the policeman waiting to arrest him.
