Even just a day relaxing at Moustego Bay

RADIO CRACKLES

'Message from President Wensley Dale. Listen up, you three.

'Me want you to take the day off and get out into the Mouseland sun

-Cool!

Me laugh a game of footie on the beach. Me gonna take dese.

-Man, dem football boots is muddy, Rastamouse.

-Ah, me know.

Hee-hee! Come on, guys - let's bounce!

What this newspaper needs is some proper good stories

to balance out all the boring news, eh, Sherlock?

Mm. Me tink some of that news can be really interesting,

but I know what you're saying, Wensley.

-PHONE RINGS

-Oh, excuse me. Greetings.

Oh, me see. Oh, no.

That is dread. Laters.

That was Carmen calling to say

that four wheels have gone missing from Fats' garage,

and me just given the Easy Crew the day off.

-What me going to do?

-Well, I...

-PHONE RINGS

Greetings. Oh, me see.

That no good. Laters.

Me can't believe it.

Now Tipper calling to say

that a chair gone missing from Ron's Barbers!

Wensley, me old boy, do not worry y'self.

Sherlock Homie is here at your service.

-PHONE RINGS

-Greetings.

Oh, no. Oh, dear.

OK. Laters. That's three crimes been reported

and me not even finished me cup of tea yet.

Now Black Whiskers is saying

that a rope been taken from the Jammin' Dodger.

Oh, this is a disaster. Me going to have to call the Easy Crew.

Now, Sherlock, what was you saying?

There is no need to bother the Easy Crew. Let ME investigate.

This mystery solving gonna be a breeze for a mouse like me.

Well, if you're sure, Sherlock. That would be most kind.

Man, this is wicked. One of the best days ever.

Me can't believe we got the whole day off

just to hang out and ting.

-Yo, Carlton.

-Yo, Rastamouse. Wa'gwan?

You fancy a game of footie upon the beach, man?

Me a bit busy right now.

Me friends have all donated some stuff

and me making a surprise for the likkle orphans.

-That's cool, Carlton. Catch you later, then.

-Later, guys.

Me love surprises! Me wonder what he making for them likkle ones.

RADIO CRACKLES Aw, man.

'Rastamouse, come in, come in. Are you reading me?

'Message from President Wensley Dale. Come immediately.

'Me so sorry to ruin your day off but me just had to call on you

'cos tings dem gone from bad to worse

'and now me don't know what to do.

Looks like that day off going to have to wait.

Come on, crew - let's bounce.

Easy Crew, thank goodness you are here

cos there's trouble going down. It's not just one crime reported,

it's not even two - it's three!

Four wheels have gone from Fats' garage,

there are tings missing everywhere!

A rope been thieved from the Jammin' Dodger

and Ron's barbers is missing a chair.

Don't worry yourself - the Easy Crew will investigate.

That's not going to be necessary

cos me friend Sherlock be upon the case.

Him investigate and solve all them crime

and now him bringing the culprit to me place.

Oh, cool. But then why do you need us, Pres?

Well, cos something just not right.

President, me very pleased to report

that after thorough investigations me can safely say

that dese mice are guilty of taking the aforementioned tings!

-Me can't believe this!

-This is ridiculous!

Hold up one minute, Sherlock Homie,

cos me tink we're going to need to see

the evidence that led you to this conclusion

and make you tink that these mice dem guilty.

That is not going to be a problem.

All the evidence is recorded here in me likkle notebook.

-It's elementary, me dear Rastamouse.

-What do you think, Rastamouse?

Wensley Dale, me tink we need to go back and check all the evidence.

-Yo, Carmen.

-Yo, guys. What you doing here?

We hear about the missing wheels.

But me thought Sherlock already investigate?

That's correct - me did. And look - here is the evidence.

This is definitely sand from the likkle orphans' sandpit

so it must have been dem orphans that took those wheels.

Me can't believe dem likkle ones would take something without asking.

-But what about the evidence?

-Hold up, guys.

Let's go and check out wa'gwan at Ron's Barbers

before jumping to any conclusions.

-Yo, guys.

-You still missing a chair, Tipper?

That's right, but me thought Sherlock already investigated.

That's right. Rastamouse, see for yourself.

Me in absolutely no doubt

that those crumbs are from one of Bandulu's cheese pies

which means that that chair must have been taken by Bandulu.

Ha-ha! You can't argue with the facts now, can you?

Dem sure look like Bandulu's cheese pie crumbs.

And dem smell like it too.

But it's important that we not jump to any conclusions. Come on, guys.

Let's head to the Jammin' Dodger

and find out more about that missing rope. Laters, Tipper.

-Yo, Black Whiskers.

-Yo, guys.

-Me heard one of your rope been thieved.

That's right, but me thought Sherlock already investigated.

That is correct and me found this extremely important evidence

which led me to identify the culprit -

mud, and this clue just goes to prove

that it was definitely Mikey Angelo who stole that rope

cos him always covered in mud.

-SCRATCHY:

-But that's because him a gardener, not a thief.

Me sorry, but it all here in me notebook.

-Me Sherlock, and me surer than sure.

-Hmm.

Me tink we need to head back to the mansion and fast.

come on, Crew, Sherlock - let's split.

-Yo, Carlton - wa'gwan?

-Me trying to find dem likkle ones.

Me have the surprise me make for them on the back of me truck,

but no-one's answering the door.

Dat's cos dem all at the mansion.

Come with us. We're on our way there now.

-Oh, cool.

-Let's split, guys.

Thank goodness you're here.

Me really hoping that you found some extra clues

that's going to clear this all up.

Not exactly, President.

We did check all of the evidence,

but me tink it's important that we talk to all the suspects too.

But that evidence surely goes to prove

-these are the mice that done wrong.

-THEY GASP

Sherlock, hold up one minute and let me tink this through

cos me tink all dem clues we saw, dem were left by the Easy Crew.

-THEY GASP

-Wa'gwan, Rastamouse?

Me totally confused.

Well, the pie crumbs at Ron's Barbers

were from the pie that Zoomer ate and the sand at Fats' garage

was from Scratchy's ball that Carmen inflate.

The mud by the Jammin' Dodger, the last clue that you see,

that come off me football boots. Me sure that was left by me.

-So that means that you guys thieve all of those things.

-What?!

No, no, Sherlock. We just stopped and had a chat at all those places

on the way to the beach. The Easy Crew not into thieving tings,

but me think Carlton may be able to help us find out exactly wa'gwan.

Ain't that right, Carlton?

Me been making this go-kart for the likkle orphans as a surprise

and Ron, Fats and Little Patch said me could take dem tings -

the wheels, the chair and the rope.

But they must have forgotten to tell Tipper, Carmen and Black Whiskers.

So that's why they reported dem ting missing.

So no crimes have actually been committed at all?

Oh, thank goodness.

Oh, me so sorry that me got it wrong and falsely accused all of you.

Me was only trying to help out Wensley

cos him panic and him no know what to do.

You no worry yourself, Sherlock. Me know you meant well

and was trying to help out your friend, Wensley.

And anyway, me have an idea how you can make a bad ting good.

So, Sherlock, me read your notebook and me think your writing is dread.

I tink you shouldn't be a detective -

you should write about one instead.

Me tink you have a special talent so listen to what me say.

You're going to put that lively imagination to good use

and write a story for the newspaper each and every day.

Oh, yes. That plan here sound proper, Rastamouse.

Oh, me proper love that detective story

that Sherlock writing for the newspaper.

You know what I'm saying - it very exciting and ting.

Me can't wait to read what happens next.

-RADIO CRACKLES

-'Easy Crew, come in, come in.

'Listen up, you three. Rastamouse, come in, come in.

'and Sherlock's story? Dem extra crucial.'

Thanks. Me love that irie, man.
