Boston Blackie

I don't know.

I can't guarantee anything.

I don't know.

No, maybe you'd better look.

Well, if you'll remember, uh, last time I looked, we found a body up there.

Special feature of the Great Gems exhibit at the famous Godet Jewelers will be the incomparable Star of the Nile emerald.

One of the most precious gems in the world.

So precious that George Stevens, vice president of Godet, is personally bringing this star to Chicago from Chicago to New York.

I don't get the joke, Chief.

Sure you don't, because you don't know that Boston Blackie is on the same train with George Stevens.

Chief, I don't get it.

Well, if I know my boss in Blackie, and to my great sorrow I do, he won't be able to resist a little gadget worth a cool 200 grand.

I still don't see what's funny.

Besides, Blackie hasn't gone after sparklers in a long time.

I know that, but I also know one thing that sparkles that's right up Blackie's alley.

Yeah, what's that?

Dames.

Sure, Chief, but the star of the Nile ain't a dame.

Yeah, but Helen Carew is.

Helen Carew?
