Boston Blackie

[first lines of each episode]

Narrator:
Danger! Excitement! Adventure! Boston Blackie! Enemy of those who make him an enemy; friend of those who have no friends.

[after a dangerous chase, Blackie manages to capture the criminal]

Boston Blackie:
What's the matter with you?

Mary Wesley:
[crying] I'm just glad to see you, you big dope.

Inspector Faraday:
Me too, you big dope.

Boston Blackie:
[to his dog] What about you?

Boston Blackie:
Follow that cab!

[first lines]

Peggy Davis:
What are we stopping for, Nick?

Nick Vincent:
Cigarettes - I'm fresh out.

Peggy Davis:
Need some money?

Nick Vincent:
No. I'm loaded - a whole buck!

[Mary discovers that her "portrait" is actually a drawing of Blackie's dog, Whitey]

Mary Wesley:
You dog, you!

Boston Blackie:
Did you hear that, Whitey? She has us confused.

C.A. Vincent:
What was it you wanted to talk to me about, Nick?

Nick Vincent:
Nothing.

C.A. Vincent:
What about the money you stole?

Boston Blackie:
Say, what's going on here?

Nick Vincent:
He tried to get rough.

Boston Blackie:
But he's your father!

Nick Vincent:
He's my father - big deal.

Boston Blackie:
Plenty big. I think maybe you need a lesson...

[Nick shows Peggy the pistol he just bought]

Nick Vincent:
If some clown hands me 170 bucks without a gun, think what this will get us!

Mary Wesley:
You will call Blackie when you hear from Nick, won't you?

C.A. Vincent:
Of course I will.

[a newspaper headline of the grocery store robbery grabs Vincent's attention]

C.A. Vincent:
Wait a minute, Blackie! I'm afraid I've already heard from Nick.

[last lines]

Mary Wesley:
Well, I see you did your good deed for the day.

Boston Blackie:
Yeah, but I'm afraid the bus company won't think so.

Mary Wesley:
Why?

Boston Blackie:
I forgot to pay my fare.
