-- He’s so homely --

-- he has to be smart.

TIMMYI still can’t believe the butler did it.

DADWhat butler? --

-- The movie was about a giant green lizard that destroyed Pough-keepsie.

MOMYou wandered into the wrong theatre again, dear.

COSMOI wandered into the wrong theatre, too. --

-- There was hot oil and popping sounds.

WANDAYou wandered into the popcorn machine, Cosmo.

COSMOOoh, that explains the imitation butter avoring in my pants. --

-- I call it butt butter.

TIMMYHey --

-- what happened to our house?

EXT - TURNER FRONT DOOR, NIGHT.

The nameplate swings back & forth.

The whole house is gone!

The nameplate falls to the ground.

(DAD GASPS)

DADWe've been robbed! --

-- They took everything! --

-- Our furniture, TV... --

-- even the walls!

MOMIf we had a butler --

-- I’d blame him.

Sparky walks in wearing a back brace.

TIMMYSparky, why didn’t you stop the burglar?

SPARKYI didn't see a burglar. --

-- I was too busy helping the mover with the ski mask load all of your stuff --

-- into his unmarked van.

TIMMYThat was the burglar!

SPARKYOhhhhhhhhh!

Sorry, Timmy. --

-- I thought we were moving somewhere better than this dump. --

-- This place doesn’t even have walls!

DINKELBERGHey, Turners, --

-- I saw you were robbed, --

-- so I took the liberty of replacing all your worldly possessions. --

TIMMYI’m glad the house is back to normal.

-- And it’s a good thing --

-- Mr. Dinkelberg got exact replicas of all my old stuff. --

-- We can --

-- forget the burglary ever happened.

DADOooooooohohoh Timmy, --

-- We can --

-- never forget this burglary ever happened!

-- To catch the burglar --

-- I’m starting a neighborhood watch.

DADDarn it! --

-- He took my watch! --

-- This guy is more cunning than I thought.

TIMMYDad, you don’t wear a watch.

DADGood detective work, son. --

-- I could use you on my team.

TIMMYDad, you’re not a detective.

DADI might as well be. --

-- I've seen every Sherlock Homely movie ever made. --

-- Well, except the one we just came back from. --

-- Anyway, --

FOP293Sc058Tumbleweed

DADThat’s because the burglar --

-- stole their sense of justice!

CROCKERHello, --

-- I’m here --

-- to join your neighborhood watch program.

TIMMYWere you robbed too, Mr. Crocker?

CROCKERNo, --

-- I’m here cuz I wanna chew the burglar out --

-- for not taking Mother. --

-- I left her on the porch with a note that said --

--'Please steal me' --

-- but no dice. --

--He did however --

-- take my dice.

DADWell, --

-- I’m gonna pull out --

FOP348Sc174suitcasewithdollarsign

-- Let’s see...

181sc092sherlockwpipe

As detectives, --

-- we’ll need a name that will strike fear --

-- into every criminal out there. --

-- We’ll call ourselves --

-- the --

-- Dimmsdale Undercover Crime Killer Squad.

TIMMYSo we’re... --

-- the Ducks?

DADOf course we are. --

-- Nothing puts more fear into the heart of thieves --

-- than duck hats. --

-- I stole them from Dinkelberg, so technically --

-- I'm our rst suspect.

DADFrom now on, you will call me by my code name: --

-- Major Mallard.

DADYour code name --

-- is --

-- Lucy Goosey.

TIMMY Oh come on!

DADAnd your code name --

-- is --

-- Mr. Quackers.

CROCKERCould I be named The Falcon? --

-- It’s a cool name --

-- and it might get me a date.

DADFalcons have nothing to do with crime. --

-- Everyone knows ducks are nature’s crime-ghters. --

-- They y South for the Winter --

-- To bust perps! --

DADNow to catch a burglar in the act, --

-- we’ll have to set up a stakeout.

EXT - STAKEOUT STEAKHOUSE, NIGHT.

DADI love steak outs! --

-- Especially with creamed corn. --

170sc077steakonplate

-- I love creamed corn, Timmy.

TIMMYI don't think a stakeout means going out for steak.

CROCKERI worked at a steakhouse once, --

-- just to steal the knives. --

-- That --

-- reminds --

-- me, --

-- I have to leave soon --

(CROCKER CUTS STEAK)

-- to put mother out for the burglar with a note that says, --

-- 'Great for pulling your plow.' --

TIMMYDad, --

-- that I don't really pay attention.

EXT - THE NEW HOUSE ON THE BLOCK, NIGHT

TIMMYThis is the only house left for the burglar to rob, Dad. --
