Scenes with Greg 84
And this is Patty Larceny, Carmen's sneaky sophomore snitcher.
Her last known whereabouts: Edinburgh, Scotland. Bobby the Dog belonged to a shepherd named John Grey. On market days, Grey and Bobby always stopped for lunch at a tavern across the street from Greyfriars Church. When Grey died in 1858 and was buried in the churchyard, the dog refused to leave his master's grave. For 14 years, Bobby left only once daily to eat at the tavern. When Bobby finally went to doggy heaven, friends built a statue of him near the churchyard. And, it stood there until today when Patty, armed with a heavy duty leash, tempted the terrier with a savory smelling dog biscuit. First, he resisted her advances, but then she collared him and walked him away. Gumshoes, you've got to find out where that...
Carmen, this bronze dog is awfully heavy and he doesn't even know any tricks.
Don't whine, Patty dear. The Gumshoes have sniffed you out. Go to an island nation east of Mozambique.
Hey, I'll stash the loot there.
You won't be the first. Pirates use this island as a base in the 17th and 18th centuries. It's also famous for its chameleons-- lizards who can change color.
If I were a chameleon, I'd go for a nice floral print.
Your color's going to be jail cell gray if you don't get moving. Now, scoot.
(as the Chief, Greg and the gumshoes travel to Denver, Colorado)
Oh, this guy is such a good driver.
GGreg
He knows how to stay on a straight line. That's for sure.
And this is Eartha Brute, Carmen Sandiego's brawny brawling burglaress.
(singing) Eartha Brute HUH!
Her last known whereabouts: Western Pennsylvania. In 1935, department store owner Edgar Kaufmann commissioned architect Frank Lloyd Wright to build a vacation home near a waterfall on Bear Run. Wright surprised Kaufmann with a plan to build a house directly over the waterfall. The building called Falling Water was completed in 1939. One scholar called Falling Water a complete masterpiece of 20th century art. Well, today, that complete masterpiece is completely gone because Eartha barreled up Bear Run, admired the architecture, and bolted with the building, waterfall and all. Gumshoes, it's a fright when...
(while Greg, the Gumshoes, and the Chief travel to Algeria, Greg and the Chief hum "Wait for the Wagon")
GCGreg and the Chief
Wait for the Wagon.
Wait for the Wagon.
Wait for the Wagon,
and we'll all take a ride!
GGreg
The M'zab (Shoeprints are revealed)
GGreg
I just wanna make sure that everybody is really ready for this. Okay? So everybody, repeat after me! It's time...!
AAudience
Carmen Sandiego!
GGreg
I said it's time...!
AAudience
Carmen Sandiego!
AAudience
Carmen Sandiego!
GGreg
Lemme hear you cheer! Let's do this! (to Kavir) C'mon, man!
(the audience cheers)
And this is Top Grunge, Carmen Sandiego's festering farrago of filth.
His last known whereabouts: West Point on New York's Hudson River. The U.S. Military Academy was founded here in 1802. Among its nearly 50,000 graduates, presidents Ulysses S. Grant and Dwight D. Eisenhower. Students are called cadets and after graduation, they become second lieutenants in the U.S. Army. The first graduating class consisted of ten men. Nowadays, more than 900 men and women graduate each year. Or they did until today when Top Grunge rode into formation. Dreaming his dreams of military glory, Grunge hopped on his chopper and heisted the whole academy. Gumshoes, you've got to clean up this...
Greg, you'd better come into my office.
GGreg
Yeah, Chief. I'll be right there. You guys, if you'll excuse me for just a moment. The Chief obviously is a need of me. (enters the office, where the Chief has ping-pong balls on her desk) What's up, Chief?
Uh, Greg, something weird is going on. I can't explain it, but a certain thing happens whenever anybody says Carmen's last name, so from now on, it's just Carmen.
GGreg
Okay. Okay. Don't worry, Chief, I won't say "Carmen Sandiego".
(ping-pong balls fall from the ceiling onto the Chief)
Thanks, Greg. I knew I could count on you.
GGreg
I'm sorry. Never again. I promise. I won't say "Carmen Sandi... armpit." Carmen Sandieggsalad. Carmen Sandielephant.
Oh, for goodness sake, Greg! I keep thinking you're about to say "Carmen Sandiego".
(ping-pong balls fall)
GGreg
Uh, uh, Chief, do you think maybe this is maybe a good time for the home viewer contest?
(Greg and the Chief do the contest rules)
GGreg
Great. See ya later. (exits the office, but the Chief stops him)
Uh, Greg. Greg, one more thing.
You-- You know the squeak in my chair.
I wonder if you could just check it out for me.
GGreg
Squeak in a chair? All right. (sits down)
Right there. (to the ceiling) Carmen Sandiego!
(nothing happens)
GGreg
Nope. No squeak that I could find. I gotta get back to work. See ya. (exits the office)
(the Chief sits back down at her desk and the ping-pong balls fall again)
(Greg returns to HQ and looks up at the ceiling to see if ping-pong balls would fall, but they don't until one does when Greg leaves for the Phone Tap)
And this is Wonder Rat, Carmen's wicked whiskered windbag.
Chief His last known whereabouts: the Persian Gulf. The Persian Gulf is an arm of the Arabian Sea. Bordered by oil-rich nations like Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, the Gulf is the key passageway for shipping billions of dollars in oil and natural gas to the world's nations. That's one reason the region has seen its share of war in recent years. But today, the gulf is gone. Wonder Rat burrowed his way to the beach. He figured in his twisted mind that if it was worth worrying over it must be worth stealing. So he drained every drop. Gumshoes, bring an end to his evil caper...
...THE PERSIAN SUBVERSION or THE GRABBING OF THE GULF!
GGreg
Hiya, Chief. Listen, I was expectin' you to call me in.
Well, I couldn't, Greg. My intercom doesn't work, and look, (shows her magnifying glass) my magnifying glass won't magnify. The blotter won't blot. Well, I can't even open my drawers.
GGreg
Chief, listen. Maybe your desk is outta gas. Now, when was the last time you had it filled?
Well, you know, I've been so busy, I haven't even thought about it lately.
GGreg
Look here, this is your problem. It's bone dry, huh? I'll fill it up for you. (taps the left side of her desk to summon the monitor she had previously used for the Photo Recon segment in Season 2)
Oh, thanks. And while you do that, I'll tell the home viewers at home about the contest. (Greg puts a gas pump in the top of the monitor to have her desk filled with gasoline and cleans the "windshield"; during this the contest is announced)
GGreg
Heck of a deal. All right, uh, pull thing there, Chief. (removes the gas pump and the Chief starts her "car" and Greg taps the monitor to descend back down) All right. Safe as always.
(hands Greg his tip) There you go. Keep the change.
GGreg
Thank you. Drive safely.
(turns on her "headlights") You bet.
GGreg
(as the Chief drives off) And don't play your radio too loud. You know what happened last time. (the Chief waves goodbye and so does Greg) See ya. (exits the office with the gas pump)
You'd better take the gulf on the lam.
I am on the lam, Carmen. I've been in 4 countries in the last 8 minutes.
I mean the Lam Sea. That's what the local people used to call it, anyway. The sea is officially part of Russia, so you see its modern Russian name on maps. Head for Sakhalin Island.
Gee, you'll think I'll run into any of my faithful devoted fans, Carmen?
No, they're both in prison, but keep your claws out of the water. The sea is full of crabs.
Hey, crabs love me! I'll get a crustacean ovation! (laughs)
(as the Chief, Greg, and the gumshoes travel to Glasgow, Scotland)
GGreg
I love drivin' this car, Chief.
Well, just don't push the ejector seat like you did the last time.
(Wonder Rat tells Diana to go to North America)
DDiana
We're goin' to North America!
GGreg
(laughs) Do it again!
DGDiana and Greg
(point to the camera) We're goin' to North America!
And this is Vic the Slick, Carmen's pocket-picking pinchmeister.
His last known whereabouts: Patagonia in Southern Argentina. Patagonia's Los Glaciares National Park is home to Moreno Glacier, a 22-mile long, three mile wide sheet of ice up to 200 feet thick. At the front of the glacier, a dramatic cliff rises from the water of Lake Argentina. Huge chunks of ice regularly break off and float away but even so, the glacier is getting bigger with every snowfall. Or it did until today when Vic the Slick hauled it off. He's planning to melt the ice down and make billions on Vic's Patagonian bottled water. Here's your job, gumshoes. Catch Carmen, stop the slick one and undo...
GGreg
We made a mistake, Tahare, the last time you were on this show last season. So we've asked you to come back. So good luck to you. Thanks for comin' back. Ladies and gentlemen, Tahare's here.
They're after you, Vic. Take the glacier to the last African colony to declare independence from Britain. A small landlocked kingdom in southern Africa.
Landlocked? This ice is tough haulin' on land, Carmster.
Hire some help. Pay them with emalangeni. That's the country's currency. King Mswati III is pictured on the bills.
Hey, maybe I could sell the king this burg, huh?
Can you bargain and speak Swati?
Eh, no, but good taste is a universal language.
Then, you're universally illiterate.
(as the Chief, Greg, and the gumshoes travel to Tianjin, China)
Uh, Greg, isn't this where we're supposed to meet the ferry?
And this is Double Trouble, Carmen's diabolical dual of do-badders.
(singing) Double Trouble (Trouble)
Their last known whereabouts: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Next to Rio's Guanabara Bay stands a towering chunk of granite rising 1,300 feet. The Indians who first lived here called the pointy isolated peak, Pot de Sucre, which means pointy isolated peak. Then the Portuguese changed it to Pâo de Açucar, or Sugarloaf. English nanny Henrietta Carstairs was the first European to scale Sugarloaf in 1817. Now hundreds of people a day take a six minute cable car ride to the peak. But no more because today, Double Trouble, engineers of mayhem, rallied through Rio, ripped off the rock, and, well, ran away. Gumshoes, you've got to catch Carmen and rustle up those...
GGreg
Now, I really do think we're gettin' close to catchin' Double Trouble. All we hafta do is contin--
Oh, you think so, do you?!
GGreg
It's my upstairs neighbor, Mrs. Pumpkinclanger. (enters the alley and looks up at Mrs. Pumpkinclanger) Hey, Mrs. P!
"How that red rain hath made the harvest grow", said the poet Lord Byron. He was describing a sight in the center of Belgium, where Napoleon fought his last battle in 1815 and now Double Trouble are a blight on that same sight. Uh, you know, I'm a bit of a poet myself. (shows a book) The stench of crime lies heavy upon us. Like a patient etherised upon a table and alas my downstairs neighbors are a clumsy surgeon and trusted with its cure. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Good-bye. (shuts her window)
GGreg
Good-bye. Thank-- Thank you very much. Thanks a lot. By the way, we have copies of her book in the lobby after the show. Okay?
If you guys don't move, you'll be in a mountain of trouble.
Go to the country once known as Mesopotamia. It was one of the first civilizations on earth.
Well, that was then. What's there now?
The country's capital is a big city on both banks of the Tigris River. It's also the center of industry and transportation. They're reconstructing after the damage from the Gulf War.
We're there, boss! Let's rock the Cradle of civilization!
(as the Chief, Greg, and the gumshoes travel to Ulan Bator, Mongolia)
This thing is sorta drafty, Greg. Can you close the window?
GGreg
No windows, Chief. This is the economy model.
And this is Top Grunge, Carmen Sandiego's marauding mud-faced mechanic.
His last known whereabouts: northern India. The 1,700 mile-long Grand Trunk Road cuts across northern India from Pakistan to Calcutta. The route was probably first used in 1500 BC by invading armies from the north. Its narrow lanes have been in heavy use ever since. Even now it's India's most important road, trucks, buses, passenger cars, ox carts, camel caravans, and herds of cattle, plus yearly floods and muds make it a famously wild ride. Or it was until today when that skanky smelling cyclist Top Grunge rolled the road up and whisked it away. Gumshoes, it's your job to get it back, catch Carmen Sandiego, and stop...
Chief ...THE GRAND TRUNK PUNK!
(as the Chief, Greg, and the gumshoes travel to Cape Cod, Massachusetts)
GGreg
Yep, all the comforts of home.
(when Grunge is revealed; in a grungy voice) Top Grunnnnnnnnnnnge!
Movin' on! (sings their fanfare; as Earl is about to leave his podium, when the confetti starts falling)
GGreg
No, wait! (Earl heads back to his podium) Okay, yeah. Good. Okay. Now come here. Oh, we're very serious about our confetti, sir.
And this is Double Trouble, Carmen Sandigo's partying pair of pilfers.
(singing) Double Trouble (Trouble)
Their last known whereabouts: Bombay, India's moviemaking Mecca. Bombay cranks out six to eight hundred films a year, three times as many as Hollywood. That's why some call Bombay Bollywood. R.K. Movie Studio, one of Bombay's biggest, makes films called Masala movies. Fantasies that combine action, romance, comedy, and hit songs. Many people in India are too poor to own a TV, but most can scrape together eight rupees to see a film. Or they could until today when Double Trouble boogied into Bombay and stole the studio, the lights, the camera, the action, they're all gone. Gumshoes, you've got a job to do. Bust those twin twits and stop...
Chief ...THE BOLLYWOOD SHUFFLE!
Boys, those ACME goons are on to us. Where've you been?
Well, now, chill out, Carmen. We took the studio starlets ice skating in West Africa.
Ice? In West Africa? Who do you think you're kidding?
Not you, boss lady. We're at the Hotel Ivoire in Abidjan. Home of West Africa's first ice rink.
Abidjan? That's just 5 degrees north of the Equator.
Yep. Ain't modern refrigeration amazing? Listen, Carmen. We'll shake ACME as soon as we practice our Triple Sow Cow.
(as the Chief, Greg, and the gumshoes travel to El Paso, Texas)
Watch the altitude, Greg. The air gets thinner up high.
GGreg
Don't worry, Chief, this is a pressurized basket.
NPNeil Patrick Harris
Greg?
NNeil
This is your doctor.
NNeil
I got your letter about your little problem.
GGreg
Well, I don't think I want you to talk about that on national--
NNeil
No, No, there's nothing to be ashamed of, Greg. Lots of people drool in their sleep.
NNeil
All I suggest is, uh, sleep in a raincoat or put a spittoon by your bed.
GGreg
Well, I think that's kinda silly.
NNeil
And hey, hey, you're in good company, Greg. Plenty of celebrities drool.
NNeil
Lassie, Mr. Ed, Scooby Doo.
GGreg
Benji? (hangs up the phone) I had no idea what he was talkin' about. All of that was completely made up. What we're waiting for now is a call from Carmen Sandiego. (the phone rings again) There. This must be her. Yes? Thank you for callin'. (hands Folake the phone) It's for you.
FFolake
Hello? (Double Trouble tell Folake to go to North America)
And this is Eartha Brute, Carmen Sandiego's darling of devious deltoid devastation.
(singing) Eartha Brute, huh
Her last known whereabouts: Philadelphia, PA, home of the world-renowned cheesesteak. These tasty fast-ordered delicacies are made by filling a soft hoagie roll with fried strips of thinly sliced beefsteak and topping it with melted cheese. Oh. Oh, that looks good. Personally, I like mine with extra, extra, extra, extra onions. Now, sure you can get them in other towns but take it from me, cheesesteaks taste better when you eat them in Philly, period. Or they did until today when Eartha Brute bibbed up then bopped off with all the cheesesteak in town. Stop her before she eats the whole haul for breakfast, gumshoes, it's your job to solve...
...THE CHEESE STEAK BRUTE QUAKE!
GGreg
For our next clue, we turn to our agent from ACME kindly dear old granny net. Hit it, Nana Rap!
Thanks, sonny. Let's rock the house! (echoes 4 times and rock music plays)
Eartha's styling east with the Philly Steaks
To the biggest city in the smallest state.
In the 1630s, this town was formed,
So religious freedom could be the norm.
The Moshassuck River is where it set.
River number 2 is the Woonasquatucket.
Well, I'm droppin' Science, Greggie dear.
Check you later.
I'm outta here!
'Cause I'm the Nana! (echoes) Nana!
GGreg
Nana Rap, ladies and gentlemen! Let's hear it for her please.
Eartha, I'm sending you to Lilongwe, an African capital. But first, get some new clothes.
But, Carmen. I like what I'm wearing. It shows my muscles.
Well, this is a very modest country. Women can't wear shorts or pants. They're against the law.
Oh, sure. And the guys get to wear what they want?
Nope. Long hair that touches the collar is against the law. So are bell bottom trousers.
Gee. Then I guess I gotta go shopping. There just isn't much selection in the size 82 petite, you know.
(as the Chief, Greg, and the gumshoes travel to Stockholm, Sweden)
Greg, do we really need all these wagons?
GGreg
I had to make sure we brought enough snack food along, Chief. Want a pretzel?
GGreg
Nobel Library. (Shoeprints are revealed)
(each time the Cheesesteaks are revealed in the 2nd round)
Heisted hoagies!
Fallen hero!
Phil-a-delphia cheesesteak! (sung to Elton John's Philadelphia Freedom)
Grounded grinder!
Go, Caitlin!
Go, Devon!
The Loot!
And this is Vic the Slick, that clown who spells class with a capital K.
His last known whereabouts: Gdansk, Poland. In 1980, Lech Walęsa led workers at a Gdansk shipyard at a braid strike against Poland's Communist government. They called their union, "Solidarity." The government banned Solidarity but you know what happened. Communism fell in Poland and Lech Walęsa became president. The shipyard in Gdansk is still running, located on one of Poland's busiest ports. Or it was until today when Vic the Slick floated into Gdansk, wielded his welder and heavy-duty tin snips, and then shipped out with the shipyard. Gumshoes, the Polish people are depending on you. Get back the shipyard and close the book on today's caper...
...THE SLICK SHIP RIPOFF!
(as the Chief, Greg, and the gumshoes travel to Zambia)
GGreg
Chief, I love these little cars! Where'd ya get 'em?
Oh, ACME Wet Muffler-Net sent them over.
(each time the Gdansk Shipyard is revealed)
Ship sham!
Yanked yards!
Anchors Aweigh, my boy! (Theme song of the U.S. Navy)
Gdone Gdansk!
And this is Kneemoi. There's a posse on every planet pursuing this perpetrator.
Her last known whereabouts: Mombasa, Kenya's second largest city. The deep calm waters of Mombasa's harbor have attracted shipping for centuries, and shipping means big business. What do Mombasa's corporation count on for communications, calculations, and commerce? Computers, of course. But computers aren't much without their memories and that's what's missing in Mombasa. Today, Kneemoi mamboed into Mombasa, disguised herself as a computer virus, and infected every motherboard, every other board, every chip and disk. The memories gone from every computer in Mombasa. Gumshoes, you've got to become...
...CHIP & DISK'S RESCUE RANGERS!
GGreg
So we'll get started with our very first clue, which come to us from ACME Tonight-Net agent Jay Leno. Jay.
JJay
Hey, gumshoes. Kneemoi is on an island in the Indian Ocean, east of Madagascar. You know who used to live there? Uh, dodo birds. Big headed, waddling, flightless guys that kinda look like huge distorted pigeons. You won't get the scoop on Kneemoi from the dodos though. They've been extinct for about 320 years. So you're gonna have to snag her yourself.
(as the Chief, Greg, and the gumshoes travel to Lagos, Nigeria)
GGreg
Buckle up, Chief. This thing's pretty fast.
I can't buckle up, Greg. I'm digital.
GGreg
Queen's College. (Shoeprints are revealed)
No problemo! (Greg laughs)
GGreg
Federal Palace Hotel. (Shoeprints are revealed)
It's a livin'! (Greg laughs)
And this is Patty Larceny, Carmen Sandiego's sweet and sneaky schoolgirl.
Her last known whereabouts: Chicago, Illinois. You might think American theater starts and ends at Broadway, but there are professional theaters all over the country. Chicago's Goodman Theater is one of the best. That's why actors like Brian Dennehy and Kathleen Turner perform there alongside the Goodman's resident company. The Goodman has presented live drama, comedy, and musicals since 1925. Or it did until today when Patty Larceny showed up armed with an autographed book and a bouquet. She took center stage and rocked the place to tears, then she mopped it off and vanished into thin air. Gumshoes, you've got to close this case...
...BADWOMAN STEALS GOODMAN!
GGreg
Come on, you guys! Come on! The Eggman!
Come on. Answer. ACME's closing in!
(on answering machine) Hi. This is Patty. I can't come to the phone right now. Leave a message and if I can fit you into my busy schedule, I'll get back to you. (machine beeps)
Guess who, twinkletoes? If you don't scram, I'll be leaving messages with your warden. Take the theatre to a capital on the Danube River. The nightlife there has been buzzing since the fall of Communism. Restaurants, cafes, and theatres are all crowded with people. There's even a Pah shopping street nicknamed the Fifth Avenue of eastern Europe. And one more thing, I really hate answering machines. (machine beeps and Carmen hangs up the phone)
(the Chief sings "The Wheels on the Bus" as she, Greg, and the gumshoes travel to Wuhan, China)
And the wheels on the bus go round and round. Round and round. Round and round. Around--
GGreg
Chief. Chief. Chief, I've always hated that song.
(each time the Goodman Theatre is revealed)
Thievin' theatre!
Pilfered persinium!
Another openin'! (a la Ethel Merman)
Stage handled!
And this is Kneemoi, Carmen Sandiego's spaced out space fund.
Her last known whereabouts: Borneo, the world's third largest island. All societies have their own art forms and Borneo's Kayan, Kenyah, and Iban peoples are no exception. They practice the art of tattooing for generations. That's right, tattoos are not something your older sister thought up to scare your mom. They date back thousands of years to hundreds of different cultures. Not all of Borneo's people wear tattoos, but those who do take pride in their skin art. Or they did until today when Kneemoi skinned the tattoos away without a trace. She thinks they'd make great road maps on her home planet Roddenberry. Gumshoes, you've got to nail Kneemoi, catch Carmen, and stop...
Kneemoi, take the tattoos to another rainforest in an African country on the equator. Many people there believe in magic.
Ah, yes. Even we aliens admired his basketball prowess.
Not Magic Johnson. Magic. You know, people turning into animals, that sort of thing. Lots of citizens follow a religion called Bwiti. It combines some Catholic rituals brought by French settlers with the magical belief of the original people.
Go to Libreville on the Atlantic coast until the pressure's off.
Okay, boss. Remember, keep your sleeves bon shiny.
GGreg
(as he, the Chief, and the gumshoes prepare for departure to the Mississippi River) Okay, guys, uh, remember, it's time for us now to go the Mississippi River. We're gonna try to find Kneemoi and the tattoos. You guys all ready to go?
Uh, Greg? I got some information for us.
Time for us to get a move on!
GGreg
Okay. We're goin' (shakes the screen as he holds it upside-down) Something is definitely the matter with this. Okay.
EErin
Want me to take your hat?
GGreg
If you would take the hat please, and if you go out this way. I'll be-- You guys have a shoetree 'cause I forgot to pack mine. I wanna just make sure. I could borrow yours then? Great. (while traveling) Carmen can't outrun us while we're in this, Chief.
Yeah, but she'll probably see us coming.
Oh, another planet, another prison cell. Maybe I could spend my sentence getting to know Carmen better. Look for her in Europe.
And this is Wonder Rat, that self-glorifying snout-faced nibbler who works for Camren Sandiego.
His last known whereabouts: the Australian Airwaves. Times are tough for Australian television. Recently, all three of the country's commercial TV networks declared bankruptcy, but one network is doing well: ABC, the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. It's a government funded public network. Once regarded as a stodgy producer of science and news programs, ABC has become a crowd-pleaser. Or it had until today when Wonder Rat, with the help of his hired hopping hooligans, purloined the programming from ABC. While his ruse reconnoitered, the rat remained. Gumshoes, you got to catch Carmen, rope the rat, and solve today's case...
WRWilliam Ragsdale
(hears the sound of a stampede) Remember the ACME Triangle of Excellence, Gumshoes: (forms the Triangle with his hands) Vigilance, Dedication, Courage!
Here's a list of places Carmen may have traveled.
GGreg
Chief, what are you doin'? You are completely off. That is not the right thing. It's not time for that!
Well-- Well, you're right Greg. I was just going by this schedule.
GGreg
Well, then, your schedule is wrong, Chief. I'm sorry. (lightning flashes a second time) Excuse me! We-- We already had the Lightning Round! Listen, guys. We're havin' some kinda scheduling problem. I'm sorry. Lemme go try to work this out. I'll be right back.
(the rest of the office sketch is the same as in "Unfair Exchange")
I think ACME's ready to spring a trap on you.
Geez, I'd better stop... (sniffs) ...sniffin' around here, then.
Take the network to a Spanish town on the Mediterranean Sea. It's where artist Pablo Picasso was born. You can hole up in the Gibralfaro, an ancient Moorish castle.
Gee, that's great! A TV network, a castle? Hoo-hoo! I'm travelin' in style! I wanna be as famous as Michael Jackson. Hee.
You're gonna be as busted as Michael Milton if you don't move your tail.
There's mustard on your sleeve.
GGreg
No kidding. (rubs his sleeve) Oh, gee. Sorry about that. I'll take care of that later on. Okay, thanks, Chief.
(as the Chief, Greg, and the gumshoes travel to Indianapolis, Indiana)
Greg, didn't I tell you to get this road flattened?
GGreg
Sorry, Chief. I've been busy trainin' Gumshoes.
GGreg
(before the Jailtime Challenge) You guys were tied at the end of the last round. We flipped a coin. Antonio, you won that toin coss. Toin coss? That cossed toin. You won. (laughter) You're gonna go first. Go ahead.
(each time Shoeprints are revealed) Near Scott's house!
1 mile from Scott's house!
(on his own) 1 mile from my house!
(each time the Australian Broadcasting Corporation is revealed)
Netted network!
Pilfered primetime!
Aussie lossie!
Plunder down under!
No show!
Don't touch that dial!
Go, Antonio!
(when Antonio wins the 2nd round) Wonder Rat! TOUCHÉ!
And this is Robocrook, Carmen Sandiego's silvery cylinder of slyness.
His last known whereabouts: Kazakhstan. The Baikonur Cosmodrome is the huge complex where Soviet rockets were built and launched. Yuri Gagarin, the first man in space, blasted off from Baikonur in 1961. Over time, the cosmodrome sent up over 800 rockets. The countries of the former U.S.S.R. want to continue their space program, but they're searching for a partner to share the program's expense. That search was interrupted today when Robocrook boosted Baikonur and blasted off. Gumshoes, you got to capture Carmen, recoup the cosmodrome, and derail that...
...RUDE ROBOT'S RECKLESS, RIDICULOUS ROCKET RIPOFF!
GGreg
(about the Clue-Fish) I gotta get rid of the fish here. (to the audience) You guys want me to... You want me to save it, or d'you want me to fry it?
AAudience
(chant) FRY IT! FRY IT! FRY IT! FRY IT!
GGreg
Oh, no-no-no, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, Hey! Hey! Hey! He's my buddy! I'm gonna save him! C'mon! (he throws the fish into the water) Sorry about that, audience!
Go to an ocean community off Africa's northwest coast. It's made up of 13 islands.
Which one is my destination?
Try Gomera. The locals sometimes speak a whistle language called Silbo. You know how to speak Silbo, don't you?
Sure. Just put your lips together, and blow.
Gomera was the last place Columbus visited before leaving for the New World. Legend says he was delayed because he fell in love.
You humans are hopelessly romantic.
At least we don't rust when it rains.
(as the Chief, Greg, and the gumshoes travel to Brasília, Brazil)
Boy, this is the way to travel, eh, Greg?
GGreg
You said, Chief. Hey, pass the complimentary mixed nuts, huh?
