- Jeff recounts how he took in struggling nerd Stu as junior partner, after Jeff rescued a beauty from a kidnapping plus nabbed a car ring single-handed, after bow-tied, all-thumbs Stu botched the car theft investigation. Jeff's princely version of the origin of 77 Sunset Strip is in response to Rex making a rash mistake by asking Jeff how their agency started. As a true detective, Rex needs all the facts to close a case, so he grills Stu for his version of the events.—David Stevens
- After reading in the newspaper about the successful wrap-up of Stuart and Jeff's latest case and remarking what a good team they make, Rex, not knowing the story, asks Jeff how they became partners in the first place. After Jeff relays the story, Rex, knowing that some parts of it were probably exaggerations of the truth, asks Stuart to tell him the story. The basic outline is the same as Jeff's, that they, without knowing it at the time or knowing the other, were both working on the same stolen car case from different angles, Stuart who was hired by Pacific Orient Insurance to investigate, while Jeff, on a request by Kookie who he had just met in a chance encounter, was trying to help Kookie's friend who was unwittingly caught up in the theft syndicate, the thugs having kidnapped the friend's sister as insurance in not going to the police, but Stuart's story has just as many, albeit different exaggerations as Jeff's. Knowing that the real story is some sort of happy medium between the two accounts he has so far heard, Rex turns to Kookie in hopes if discovering the truth, Kookie who may other thoughts on his mind.—Huggo
