Gumshoes, Carmen Sandiego and her troop of traitorous troglodytes have turned up again. This time, they struck in Stockholm, Sweden. Alfred Nobel was a Swede who made his fortune by inventing dynamite and other explosives. However, he was a pacifist and was bothered by the destructiveness of his invention. That's why he gave his money away to people's who work benefited mankind, so began the Nobel Prizes. Each year at Stockholm Concert Hall, the gold medals along with millions of dollars are awarded in the fields of physics, chemistry, medicine or physiology, literature, and economics. The Peace Prize is awarded in a separate ceremony in Oslo, Norway. Well, yesterday, the Peace was shattered when Vic the Slick stole into Stockholm and pilfered the Prizes. Theses medals of merit are hanging around his knavish neck as if they were just junk jewelry. Gumshoes, you must nick Vic the Slick, bring the Nobels back to Stockholm, and then manacle that maniacal mastermind Carmen Sandiego.
Carmen, babe, these prize medals look great on me. Real class.
CCarmen
Vic, you wouldn't know real class if it hit you in the face with a gym sock. Now, listen. Go to a money museum in a federal reserve bank.
CCarmen
It has all kinds of cash on display. Like some of the first coins ever minted, and a block of tea that was once used as currency. It's in a former capital of the Confederate States of America, and hide those medals, or ACME will be on you like that cheap suit.
Hey, I pay top dollar for this suit.
(Vic tells Josh to go to Europe; Josh is surprised to hear it)
You're kidding! What'd-- What did he say?!
JJosh
We're goin' to Europe!
Chief! We're goin' to Europe!
Gumshoes, Carmen Sandiego's pack of pernicious pirates have struck again. This time, they pinched the Peruvian city of Machu Picchu. Hidden high in the Andes Mountains, the Machu Picchu ruins is one of the world's greatest archaeological treasures. Built by the Incas in the 1400s, it is often called The Lost City because it was abandoned and not rediscovered until this century. Why was it abandoned? No one knows. But now, The Lost City of the Incas is really lost. Eartha Brute, driving her customized Brute Haul Truck, four-wheeled up the Andes, packed up the Peruvian city, and drove it away. Your mission, gumshoes: unearth Eartha, return the missing Machu Picchu, and then capture Carmen Sandiego.
Hey, Carmen, those Acme guys are closing in. Where should I stash Michi Pichi?
CCarmen
That's Machu Picchu, Eartha. Take it to a country where everyone celebrates the new year and their birthday on a holiday called Tet.
Yeah, but Moochoo Poochoo is pretty big. Where am I gonna hide it?
CCarmen
Earth to Eartha. It's Machu Picchu. Take it to Hanoi. It's the oldest capital in Southeast Asia. You can hide it in one of the city's 12 beautiful lakes.
EEarth
Are those lakes deep enough to hide Mongo Pongo?
CCarmen
MACHU PICCHU, BRUTEBRAIN, MACHU PICCHU! NOW GET OFF THE PHONE AND GO!
Gumshoes, Carmen Sandiego's cartel of cruel crudballs have committed another crime. This time, they zapped Zimbabwe. In Zimbabwe, this bird is all over. It appears on the currency, flag, and coat of arms. Several ancient sculptures of the bird, carved out of green soapstone, stand in the museum near the ruins of the Shona Karanga city-state. This powerful kingdom flourished between the 13th and 15th centuries AD in the southeastern part of Zimbabwe. Its power faded but remnants remained: an acropolis, a temple with walls as high as 36 feet, and the Stone Birds. But this morning, Wonder Rat, that rodential robber, grabbed one of the bird by the beak and took off with it. He thinks it will make a cool action figure in his rat-mania roadshow. Gumshoes, your mission is to trap that wretched rat, bring Zimbabwe's beloved bird back home, and then bust up Carmen Sandiego's gang for good.
CCarmen
ACME's closing in on you. Bag the bird, then head for the capital of a southern state. It's where the civil rights movement got underway back in 1955. That's when Rosa Parks, an African American refused to give up her seat on a bus to a white man.
Yeah. Yeah, I know the place. Uh, listen. Can I head for that lunch joint with a huge buffet of local homemade food?
CCarmen
You mean the Farmers Market Cafeteria.
Yeah. I'm thinkin' the customers might wanna see my rat-o-mania road show.
CCarmen
The customers might want to see you in jail, rat-face. Keep your tail out of sight.
Gumshoes, Carmen Sandiego's troop of tricky transgressors has struck again. This time, they pilfered a peak between Nepal and Tibet. The Himalayan Mountains are home to nine of the world's ten tallest peaks, and the highest of them all is Mount Everest. Named after British surveyor Sir George Everest, this mountain's 29,028-foot height is the ultimate challenge for climbers. Recorded attempts to reach the top of Mount Everest began in 1921, but it wasn't done until 1953 by Sir Edmund Hillary, an Englishman who was once a beekeeper, and Tenzing Norgay of the Sherpas, a people native to the Himalaya. But now, the sight of this towering peak is a gaping crater. Kneemoi, Carmen's space-trucking troublemaker, has stolen Mount Everest. She says her planet Roddenberry needs a ski resort. Your mission, gumshoes: evict Kneemoi from Everest, return the peak to its place, and then bring Carmen Sandiego to justice.
(after Kneemoi's profile) She's an extra sneaky, extra crafty, extra extraterrestrial.
Okay, Gumshoes. For our next clue, we turn to ACME Celeb Net agent LeVar Burton. LeVar, what's the latest?
LLeVar
Greg, I've tracked some tricky aliens around the galaxy, but no one as slippery as Kneemoi. She has stashed Mt. Everest in a trench. Not a land trench. This one's on the ocean. Located in the North Pacific, it forms one of the deepest parts of any ocean on earth. It's about 7 miles down, so if Kneemoi put Everest on the bottom, its peak would be about a mile and a half below the water's surface. Wow, that's what I call being in over your head. Go get 'em.
'Kay, thanks a lot, LeVar.
CCarmen
Head for a town on the California coast. It was a setting for John Steinbeck's great novel Cannery Row.
Canary Row? He wrote about little birds in cages?
CCarmen
Not canaries. Canneries! Factories where they put fish into cans. Steinbeck wrote about the poor homeless men who worked in them, but the place has changed a lot. The canneries are gone and some of the most expensive real estate on earth is nearby.
Oh. Just one more question.
How did the fish breathe inside those little cans?
(Carmen sighs)
Gumshoes, Carmen Sandiego and her gang of vino vipers have vandalized again. This time, they did the deed on the island of Phuket in Thailand. Around 1785, the governor of Thalang, Phuket's administrative center, died. So the king of Burma thought, "Hey, good time for me to invade." His army tried to take Phuket, but they ran into two obstacles: the governor's widow, Khun Ying Chan and her sister, Kung Ying Muk. The two rallied the townspeople and forced the Burmese army to retreat. Thailand's king was so grateful that he had these two bronze statue of the sisters erected. They guarded Phuket until today when Patty Larceny, that greedy goody-goody, snuck onto the island and grabbed the girls swords and all. Your mission, gumshoes: lock up Larceny, send the statues back to Thailand, and then catch that crazed crime creator Carmen Sandiego.
I just adore these sisters. They're pretty, but they're dangerous. Just like me!
CCarmen
But always remember, dear, they are good guys, and you're a bad guy. Now, listen. Sail off the Río de la Plata to the capital of Uruguay. Hide the Heroines behind the Gaucho statue. It's a bronze monument to these hard riding horsemen.
I know what Gauchos are. They're cowboys.
CCarmen
That's right, Patty, dear. Now, quit showing off and shove off.
Gumshoes, Carmen Sandiego's failance of felonious flimflammers has struck again. This time, They've pinched a plane in Vietnam. Ho Chi Minh City, still widely known by its former name Saigon, is home to Vietnam's Military Museum. The museum is a tribute to victory after a long history of occupation. This Southeast Asian country outlasted four major military powers: China, Japan, France, and the U.S.A., finally unifying in 1976 when the last Americans left. One of the Military Museum's proudest showpieces is a captured F-5 Freedom Fighter Jet, complete with a loaded 20-millimeter nose gun. Well, the gun is gone, guys, and so is the plane. It's attached to Robocrook. Carmen's mechanical marauder crept into the cockpit, revved the engines, and took off. Your mission, gumshoes: deplane Robocrook, return the jet to Ho Chi Minh City, and then capture Carmen Sandiego.
Chief, what's with the fruit here?
Greg, is this one of your practical jokes?
No, Chief! No way! You made me promise, no more practical jokes after that disaster with the hair dryer and the 9 ferrets.
Ooh! Then it must be Carmen Sandiego who's behind this! (laughs like a maniac) Well! If this is the way she wants it, I'm going to fight fire with fire!
CCarmen
Robo, those ACME agents are closing in. Head for an African capital located on a large river called the Zaire.
Affirmative. It's in a country that's also called Zaire. Was the river named after the country?
CCarmen
No, it's the other way around. Zaire is the Portuguese version of a Kikongo word that means large river.
So, the country called Large River is on a large river that's called Large River? That is very logical. What is the meaning of Kikongo?
CCarmen
It's one of the national languages spoken in Zaire, but the official language is French because it was once a Belgian colony.
Orders received. I'm on my way.
(each time the Freedom Fighter Jet is revealed in the 2nd round)
Filched Fighter!
$10 headsets!
Off we go into the wild blue yonder! ("The U.S. Air Force")
Leavin' on a Jet Plane! (John Denver song)
Be all that you can be! (Army jingle)
(Robo is revealed, to Greg's surprise)
WHOA!!! WHOA!!! Oh, my goodness!
(singing) Robocrook! YOU'VE WON!! (sings their fanfare)
(Ricky goes to the chain, when the confetti is ready to fall)
(races to Ricky, pushing him back to his podium) Wait! Wait! (laughs) Go back and... some of this! (Ricky finishes getting confetti) There you go. Now come over here. (he and Ricky walk up to the chain)
This is Lynne Thigpen speaking for Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? and remember: We're on the case like fleas on Lassie, with better ratings than Degrassi.
Gumshoes, Carmen Sandiego's gang of goons have glommed again. This time, it happened in our nation's capital, Washington, D.C. The Supreme Court is the highest level of the judicial branch of government for the United States. It has final say in matters of constitutional law. The court includes a Chief Justice and eight Associate Justices. They're appointed by the president, confirmed by the Senate, and served until they decide to retire. Now since they don't run for office, they can make decisions without worrying about what voters might think. But yesterday, in an attempt to impress her social studies teacher, Patty Larceny swiped the court, Justices and all. This brazen bib for brownie points must not go unpunished. Your mission: put Patty in the pin, save the Supremes, and then catch Carmen Sandiego.
It's now time for our second clue. So, listen very closely. This one comes in now-- We turn to a gal who is presently choreographing Madonna's next world tour. Nana Rap, whatcha got for us?
Word to the gumshoes, Gregmeister. Let's rock the house! (rock music plays)
Alex Haley was the man, listen to what I say.
Trace an ancestor here named Corsican face.
Check out a map. A nation side a nation.
'Cause with Senegal, it forms a confederation.
They got beautiful beaches. Tourists soak up the rays.
And if you like wrestling, it's a national craze.
So, west African coast is where you'll pick up the trail.
Now, go bust Patty. Lock her up in jail!
You got the Nana! Nana-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Nana-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Ah-Nana. Ooh...
Nana Rap, ladies and gentlemen!
CCarmen
Convene that court and move out fast. Head for a nation where King Hammurabi once ruled.
Sure, Carmen. That was part of ancient Mesopotamia. It's where they created writing, and... and the wheel, and the 60-minute hour, and...
CCarmen
And unfortunately for us, Patty, they created one of the first systems of law. Its main principle was the strong shall not injure the weak. Ha! Can you imagine?
Gee, Carmen, how did you ever learn so much about the law?
CCarmen
I make it a point to know my enemies.
Scott (sings to the tune of The Supremes' "Stop! In the Name of Love" as the Supreme Court is revealed in the 2nd round): Stop! In the name of law!
NOTE: Tahare Campbell was eliminated from that episode, but only due to a geographical error, he returned in the Season 3 episode The Glacier Erasure
CCarmen
Rat, that Yeti is drawing too much attention. Head for the Atlantic Coast of the United States. Hide out in Grover's Mill, a small town east of Princeton.
Aw, don't send me to the states, Carmen.
CCarmen
You'll like it. The place is famous for a big media hoax. It happened on Halloween Eve in 1938. People were listening to their radios when they heard a report that space creatures were invading near Grover's Mill.
Gee, I didn't know Kneemoi hung out in the Garden State.
CCarmen
It wasn't Kneemoi. It was a radio drama, but lots of people thought it was true and panicked.
Geez, if I could get that kind of attention, just think. Newspapers, magazines, CNN--
CCarmen
FBI, criminal court, jail.
Yeah. Yeah. I'll stay outta sight.
Tahare, we're gonna start with you. You have 75 crime bucks. How much did you risk?
TTahare
(reveals his wager) I risked 50.
50 crime bucks. What'd ya say?
TTahare
(reveals his answer) I said the Aegean Sea.
Sorry. It is not the Aegean Sea.
(sings to the tune of "Puff the Magic Dragon") Puff the Magic Yeti!
The is Lynne Thigpen speaking for "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego" and remember, stealing never grants your wishes. You end up washing jailhouse dishes. (Due to a factual error in this game, Tahare Campbell has been invited to play a new game in our next season.)
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.
CCarmen
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.
CCarmen
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.
CCarmen
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.
He knows how to stay on a straight line. That's for sure.
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!
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.
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.
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)
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.
(turns on her "headlights") You bet.
(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)
CCarmen
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.
CCarmen
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?
CCarmen
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)
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!
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...
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.
CCarmen
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.
CCarmen
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?
CCarmen
Can you bargain and speak Swati?
Eh, no, but good taste is a universal language.
CCarmen
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...
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?!
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)
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?
CCarmen
If you guys don't move, you'll be in a mountain of trouble.
CCarmen
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?
CCarmen
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?
No windows, Chief. This is the economy model.
And this is Patty Larceny, Carmen Sandiego's heinous, brainous teenage terror.
Her last known whereabouts: Washington, D.C. The Hope Diamond may be the world's most famous jewel. Named for the English family who owned it from 1830 until 1901, the flawless blue stone weighs 45.5 karats. Huh, that's big. Superstition says that anyone who touches the Hope Diamond will die, and to that I say, "Of course they will, because everybody dies eventually!" Well, anyway... in 1958, the Hope's last owner donated it to the Smithsonian, where it's been on display ever since. Until today, that is, when pernicious Patty, with teenage dreams of glamor in her brainy head, sidled into the Smithsonian, heisted the Hope, and sashayed away with it. Who says dreams can't come true? We do! Gumshoes, you've got to grab that girl and catch Carmen, and stop...
CCarmen
...THE HOPE ELOPEMENT!
I used to be a sweet innocent schoolgirl. Now I'm a sweet guilty schoolgirl and it's all Carmen's fault! Go look for her in South America.
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!
CCarmen
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.
CCarmen
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.
CCarmen
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.
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.
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.
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.
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!
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!
Nana Rap, ladies and gentlemen! Let's hear it for her please.
CCarmen
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.
CCarmen
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?
CCarmen
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?
I had to make sure we brought enough snack food along, Chief. Want a pretzel?
