What is the Brandon Jewel Robbery about?

VHI Host 0:00
How can I help? It's a question I ask my patients every day. It's a question I ask myself. One thing I've learned is that I can help even more when I can easily connect with physios, pediatricians, specialists, nurses, who are all working with me in a healthcare network that takes a wider view of your health. That's VHI, where healthcare connects. So let me rephrase the question. How can we help?

Mary Wesley 1:04
Blackie, you're a creature of habit. We have eaten in this restaurant every Tuesday for weeks, do you know that?
Boston Blackie 1:09
I've got another habit, Mary. I pay the check when we're through eating, like now. Let's go, hon.
Mary Wesley 1:15
I'm ready.
Boston Blackie 1:15
All right, better take you straight home if you want to be there before your cousin arrives.
Mary Wesley 1:19
Oh, well, she'll wait for me, I hope.
Boston Blackie 1:21
Say there's a cab outside. Run out and see if it's vacant, will you?
Mary Wesley 1:24
Right.
Boston Blackie 1:24
I'll pay the check and be right with you.
Mary Wesley 1:25
I think we have that cab, Blackie. The flag on the media top.
Boston Blackie 1:28
Good.
Inspector Faraday 1:28
Your check, sir?
Oh.
Boston Blackie 1:31
Here you are.
Inspector Faraday 1:31
Thank you.
Boston Blackie 1:32
And here's your money.
Inspector Faraday 1:33
Oh, no, the meal is on the house, Mr. Peterkin.
Boston Blackie 1:36
Thanks, but I'm not Mr. Peterkin.
Inspector Faraday 1:37
Ah-ha-ha, but I know better. We're proud to have your patronage, Mr. Peterkin.
Boston Blackie 1:42
I'm not Mr. Peterkin. I'm Boston Blackie, and I'm giving you your money.
Inspector Faraday 1:47
And I'm returning it to you, Mr. Peterkin, please, with the compliments of the house. Look, I tell you, I am... You forced me to tear up the check. There. Now you can't pay a check that does not exist. All right. But believe me, there's been some mistake. Oh, no mistake, I assure you. For you, there shall never be a check, Mr. Peterkin.
Narrator 2:12
Now back to Dick Calmer's Boston Blackie. Enemy to those who make him an enemy. Friend to those who have no friend.
Mary Wesley 2:21
Oh, Blackie, you won't forget to get that watch for my cousin, will you?
Boston Blackie 2:27
Don't worry, Mary. The jewelry store is open till nine tonight. You'll have it this evening.
Mary Wesley 2:31
The one we saw in the window?
Boston Blackie 2:33
Mm-hmm. I think she'll like it, don't you?
Mary Wesley 2:35
Oh, well, if you see one you think she'll like better, get it. You know more about watches than I do.
Inspector Faraday 2:41
An eleventh day of laughing, you miss. Here we are.
Boston Blackie 2:43
Hold the flag, driver. I'm going on. Right.
Mary Wesley 2:46
Uh, don't bother to see me at the door. Blackie, I'll be all right.
Boston Blackie 2:49
You always are. I'll call you later.
Mary Wesley 2:51
Now, you won't forget to get that watch, would you?
Boston Blackie 2:53
Right, Mary, I promise. I'll have a messenger deliver it.
Mary Wesley 2:56
Thanks, darling.
Boston Blackie 2:57
Night.
Night.
Boston Blackie 3:00
51 Sunset Parkway, driver, and step on it.
Inspector Faraday 3:02
You don't have to tell me where you live, Mr. Petekin.
Boston Blackie 3:05
What did you call me?
Inspector Faraday 3:06
Mr. Petekin, Mr. Petekin.
Boston Blackie 3:08
Now, wait a minute.
Inspector Faraday 3:09
And if you think this all is going to cost you anything, you're wrong. Now, look here, for the... I'm here to have you in my cab, so there's no charge. Not for the famous Mr. Peterkin.
Boston Blackie 3:27
Good evening. I'd like to see a watch, please, like the one you have in the window there.
Inspector Faraday 3:31
I think you mean this one, don't you, sir?
Boston Blackie 3:33
Yes, that's it.
Inspector Faraday 3:34
It's a lovely thing.
Boston Blackie 3:35
How much?
Inspector Faraday 3:35
$90, sir, but naturally... Naturally what? Naturally, there'd be no charge for you, Mr. Peterkin.
Boston Blackie 3:42
Now, wait a minute. My name is Boston Blackie.
Inspector Faraday 3:47
You're very modest, Mr. Peterkin, but I happen to know who you are, and I'm proud to give you this watch. I tell you, I am not Mr. Peterkin.
Boston Blackie 3:54
I'm Boston... Now, please, Mr. Peterkin, I meant no offense. Look, this is the third time in the last hour that someone has called me Mr. Peterkin. I am not Mr. Peterkin, and I am not accepting the watch without paying for it. Here. Here's $90.

How does Blackie get involved in the mystery?

Boston Blackie 4:05
But I couldn't take the money from Mr. Peterkin. Maybe you can't take it from Mr. Peterkin, but you can take it from me. And take it from me, you're taking that $90. Here. And do me a favor, will you? Believe my name is Boston Blackie.
