Upon the death of his uncle, "Pop" O'Leary receives news that he has inherited all of his uncle's property including factories and shipyards in New Zealand, and with his new found wealth, he treats people in Suicide Slum to luxuries, racking up a slew of unpaid bills. Then it happens: a few criminals tell him that they sent the letter, he is poor and he owes all that money, but they will "help out" if Pops helps them rob the gashouse he is guarding.
