Chase and Julia in “Becoming Carmen Sandiego (Part 1)”

In just the last few weeks, this Carmen Sandiego has managed to rob millions of euros combined from a Swiss bank, a high-end art gallery in Cairo, and a Shanghai amusement park.

Before vanishing without a trace. Headquarters has yet to discern any pattern, except that our perpetrator always wears a scarlet coat and fedora and seems to announce her crimes by making random public appearances beforehand.

Such as the nearby café sighting earlier today. So we must ask ourselves, who in the world is Carmen Sandiego? Why would a thief draw attention to herself by leaving clues and wearing bold colors?

Perhaps stealing's a game to her.

Ha! The game is over! She's in my jurisdiction now, though I question why.

Poitiers is rich with medieval history. Perhaps she is targeting a priceless antique or historic artifact from one of its many churches, or--

[slams down on the brakes] Ms. Argent, you are an agent of Interpol, not a museum guide, so you may stop sharing dull facts about boring things. You've been on the force merely a fortnight, have you not? [Julia notices a shadowy figure in her rearview mirror] You have so much to learn, and since you have been assigned to my department...

Uh, uh...

I, Chase Devinaux, will be you teacher.

Inpsector Devinaux, sir--

Nuh-uh! Sit back, watch, and learn how to catch a thief.

[points behind her] She's right there!

Huh? [looks behind him to see Carmen Sandiego using a grappling hook to scale a building] LE FEMME ROUGE!!!! [slams down on the gas and turns the car around]
