It's about time he got that heap fixed. It's been sitting up on blocks for months.

He's got new tires and everything. I helped him bring them back from the shop. Big, heavy mothers too; twelve of 'em.

Uttlantis rushes back in

Guys! It's gone!

Your bottle of peppermint oil is missing too?

No. Or maybe, I dunno, I didn't have time to check.

The bus is gone, stolen. Some bastard drove off with my tour bus!

You should notify the authorities.

Darn tootin'. We must not let this theft go without some effort to retrieve our stolen goods.

Do you serve lemonade? If so, I would like to compare it with The Bars to see which I prefer.

Of course. Lemonade is a popular and therefore standard menu item.

I thought they were more of a place to drink alcohol. I wasn't aware that they had a lemonade available that was worth comparing to anything. Here, let me get you a glass of the stuff we have on offer and I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Brings them some of the cafe's homemade lemonade

That should satisfy even the most discerning of palates.

Hmmmmm

I give your lemonade a 100% and the bar's a 10/10

Thank you. We do like to satisfy our guests.

Would you care for anything else?

I've never tried their lemonade.

Thanks, that's mighty white of you.

Nah, thanks I'm good!

*leaves regrets on the table* (my currency)

Hope you accept these!

Alright everyone, hands up, don't move!

*snaps pruning shears in the air*

We are here for an (dramatic pause) INVESTIGATION!

*The monkeys raise their hands... then wave them in the air like they just don't care*

Is this a hold-up? Because we don't have much cash on hand.

Put those things down, we need to keep a low profile; the culprit could be nearby

Don't worry, we just have a few questions

Oh! Sharp!

Do anything you want to the girl, just don't hurt me!

Shocked, the woman at the counter spits out her coffee

You coward.

The police? It's about time you showed up. I called you hours ago. What took you so long?

*Eyes still on the pruning shears*

I don't think these are the cops. They have a 'private contractor' look about them.

We're not the police, we're private investigators, I'm Janis Holmes and this here *gestures to Pretty periwinkles* is my colleague, Peri

Have you seen anything suspicious around here? Has anything been stolen?

I bleed easily. Especially when cut with pruning shears.

Do I still need to keep my hands in the air? I'm losing the feeling in my fingertips.

Hooray?

Um, yes? A private detective and a pot of flowers with pruning shears.

Funny you should ask.
