Host: "Alright, I'll be right over there, you guys take good care, I'll go check to see what she wants, [Chuckles A Bit] I wonder what she'd like to speak about."

Host: "So remember, we're looking for Vic the Slick and trying to get back that Lady with an Ermine, so most importantly, ACME Budnet has just provided all of us with a telephone conversation between Vic and Carmen Sandiego, listen very carefully."

Vic the Slick: (on the telephone) "This painting is taking a couple of hours to keep in my knapsack, Carmen."

Carmen Sandiego: (on the other telephone) "Never mind that, Vic, those ACME agents are gaining up on you, head for a group of Denmark Islands in the South Atlantic."

Vic the Slick: (on the telephone) "But I'm a bit hungry and nervous."

Carmen Sandiego: (on the other telephone) "Well, I think you're in luck, these islands are full of fresh fish and seafood dinner meals."

Vic the Slick: (on the telephone) "Seafood dinner meals? that sounds yummy good and tasty."

Carmen Sandiego: (on the other telephone) "Those Gumshoes are gonna make a dinner meal outta you if you don't hurry up and get going."

End telephone conversation.........

Host: "Alright, Gumshoes, name the island group: is it Caribbean Islands? Christmas Islands? or River Islands?"

[Buzzer Sounds]

Host: "Yes, Owen?"

Gumshoe Number 1: "I pick River Islands."

Host: "How 'bout you, Scarlett?"

Gumshoe Number 2: "I choose River Islands."

Host: "Jackson?"

Gumshoe Number 3: "River Islands."

Host: "River Islands, the answer we're looking for is River Islands. nice job, Gumshoes, [Sounds Of Audience Cheering And Applauding] alright, so that means Owen has 87, Scarlett has 78 and Jackson has 96. nice job, you guys. now unfortunately, it looks like Vic has completely disappeared, which is super easy when he's super sly and sneaky."

Mysterious Man: "Well, he went to a place that's full of Crocodiles, Koalas, echidnas, kangaroos, wombats, tortoises and emus. now get on over there and catch him."

Host: "Alright. thanks a bunch."

Guest Star: "Gumshoes, Vic's in a real big city town, that's all I'm telling you guys."

Host: "Thanks a bunch, (Jack|Guest Star's 1st name)."

Host: "(Gumshoe's 1st name), do you recognize him? that cartoon animated movie character?"

[Buzzer Sounds]

Host: "Yes, (Gumshoe's 1st name)?"

Gumshoe # 1: "I pick New Jersey."

Host: "New Jersey is 'not the answer we're looking for, so we're going down 30, but this isn't over just yet, now, (Gumshoe's 1st name)?"

Gumshoe # 2: "I choose New York City."

Host: "New York City is correct, nice job, [Sounds Of Cheering And Applauding] alright, (Gumshoe's 1st name), how much did you risk?"

Gumshoe # 3: "47 crime bucks."

Host: "47 crime bucks, that means 2 of you guys are going for the next round, congratulations, way to go."

[Audience Cheering And Applauding Again]

Host: "(Gumshoe's 1st name), listen, buddy, you're a real good detective, you did some wonderful things for a trip that's gonna help you on the next case, hey, Chief."

Chief: "We've got the official ACME Crime Net travel kit, and this includes an Atlas for world travelers [More Sounds Of Cheering And Applauding], an official Carmen Sandiego digital watch, a Carmen Sandiego t-shirt, a super national world geographic magazine and this handy universe globe."

Host: "Alright, you guys need to go to the main continent and track down Vic the Slick and bring back the Lady with an Ermine, so you need to go find them and bring them back, Chief, what do you say?"

Chief: "It's time for the ACME photo recon, begin the slideshow, please."
