Considering this is Joss, I wouldn't be surprised if it was just for the lolz.
That's what worries me too. I'm thinking of that scene in "The Prom" where we find out why Andrew's brother wants to kill everyone at the prom - a 2-second flash to him asking a girl to be his date and being turned down - which is a great gag if it's a minor character or something that's not essential to character development. What worries me about the bank robbing is that it'll either get the "2-second-gag" treatment, or the opposite, that it becomes a major plot line since once you start explaining it, it really needs explaining... which is sad, considering how utterly silly it looks.
