And this is Wonder Rat, Carmen's wicked whiskered windbag.
(singing) Wonder Rat
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...
(singing) Woo-woo-ooo-oo
...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.
Thank you. Drive safely.
(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)
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)
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)
What'd he say?
We're goin' to North America!
(laughs) Do it again!
(point to the camera) We're goin' to North America!
