SYNOPSIS 

 
Uncle Martin is justly proud of his Earth Nephew when as a r 
result of an article Tim writes, their landlady gives a recently 
paroled little pickpocket a job as a handy man. He is also proud of 
Andy Fuller, the light-fingered one, who after innumerable losing 
bouts with the law is determined to go straight. However, going 
straight is quite a challenge for someone whose sole talent lies in 
appropriating other people's property. Trying to help the inept Andy, 
Uncle Martin increases the pickpocket's problems a hundredfold when he 
accidentally exposes him to a dose of Martian magnetism. This causes 
him, unwittingly and unknowingly, to attract every valuable in sight 
that isn't nailed down. When Andy finally attracts an expensive pearl 
necklace, right under the nose of Detective Brennan, and is about to 
give himself up as a self-confessed thief who is so crooked that his 
fingers work against the better instincts of his brain -- Uncle Martin 
goes into action. He maneuvers a perfect solution, which results in 
the Police Department hiring Andy to do the one thing he is best 
suited for: picking pockets. Tim admiringly admits that only a Solomon 
could come up with a solution like this... a Solomon... or his 
favorite Martian Uncle!
