Got it.
Another 100 on... Yep. 500 on Terroway on the fifth. Yeah. About time you guys noticed me. Hey, Carl. The guy at the door has a gun. It's a stick-up. A mask and a gun usually means a stick-up, boys. Don't under your move till I say it's okay. Keep those hands up in the air. I'll accept you. Me? Yeah, you. Take the money on that table, brush it into the sack. Come on, come on, hurry. Better do as he says. You're telling me. Hurry it up. Come on, come on. Must be 10,000 there. Sucker money, huh? You're a sucker if you think you're going to live long enough to spend it. I'll spend it and I'll be back someday for more. Right, come on, you toss that sack over here. Okay. Yeah, I'll catch it. Good boy, you didn't try to throw it in my face.
And listen, boys, don't any of you try to follow me out of here or I'll start using this gun. Tough guy, aren't you? All you mugs think you're tough when you got a gun in your hand. Sorry to disappoint you, boys, but I have a reputation for being a gentleman, not a mug. Maybe I ought to tell you who I am. So you know I mean it when I say the first guy to follow me out of here, the first to stop a slug. Yeah. Give us your name, address, and telephone number. We'll give you a tip on a horse someday. Well, I'm just telling you so you'll know I'll keep my promise about shooting if any of you guys get killed. Hey, I'm Boston Blackie.
And now on to Dick Calmer as Boston Blackie. Enemy to those who make him an enemy. Friend to those who have no friend.
Sit down, Larson. Sit down. Have a peanut.
No, thanks, Ames. I don't like peanuts.
Too bad. You don't know what you're missing. You like chairs, don't you? Most fat men do.
Take one. Well, if I get much fatter, I'll have to take two.
Yeah, you will. Nice to see you, Larson. I need cheering up.
Well, they tell me misery loves company. So I thought I'd come up and be miserable with you. Your horse from get robbed, too? Last night. Took $18,000. You must be doing pretty well. You want to have a peanut? No, thanks. I don't like them.
That's too bad. You don't know what you're missing.
I know I'm missing $18,000. And that's not peanuts, huh? No. Who held you up?
Any idea?
Same fellow who robbed your place.
Oh, Blackie, huh?
Well, he said he was Blackie. But would Boston Blackie really do us stick up?
How does Boston Blackie become involved in the investigation?
Why not?
Oh, he's too smart for a thing like that.
He's not so smart he can find a way to live without eating. He's overboard for charities. A gymnasium he set up for kids must have cost him plenty. And that's only one of the things he's back on.
Let's not worry about Blackie. He always does okay.
He's getting so big for his boots, he thinks he can get away with holding us up because... because we're not licensed operators. He knows we can't squawk to the police, so he thinks he's safe.
Well, you know, that's really what I come up to see you about. Are we gonna let Blackie get away with robbing us?
You kiddin'? I got plans for Blackie. Big plans. I'll take care of him. Really ought to try a peanut. No.
You don't know what you're missing.
To whom do I make out this receipt, Mrs. Martin?
To the Manchester Charities, Blackie. And also write, received from Mrs. Clara Martin.
All right. Mrs. Clara Martin. You're sure our organization wants to spend this much, Mrs. Martin?
Yes. We all voted at the same time we decided you would head the purchasing committee.
