[man] And now I will show you our village's most treasured possession.
- The golden icon. - [all gasping] Wow!
- [all] Cool! - [Nancy] Aren't they sweet?
- [Scooter] What's an icon? - A picture or representation, Scooter,
- usually religious in origin. - [Charlie] It must be extremely valuable.
Oh, the icon is priceless. It has been here since our village was founded.
If it's worth that kind of loot, you're begging for a heist.
Heist? Uh, my English is not too good.
Your English is fine, Mr. Mayor.
It's my son's that needs correcting.
[Flip] What I said was it'd be easy for a crook to steal that icon.
- [Scooter] Yeah, easy. - Ah! I see now what you mean.
But the icon is quite safe. No one in this town would dream of touching it.
And besides, there's always a guard at the door.
The gypsies are here. Mr. Mayor, the gypsies are here.
- [Nancy] Wow! Real gypsies. - Please excuse me, Mr. Chan.
I must meet their leader in my office.
- Hey, a dancing bear! - [music plays]
- [Flip] Look at that! - [Scooter] Yeah, look at that!
- What an act! - Wow! I wish I could dance like that.
Look, tumblers! Boy, that's neat!
I think it's time we went back to the hotel.

- [knocking] - You may continue practicing.
I will answer the door.
The mayor's compliments, kind sir.
And he desperately needs your help.
- May I take you to him? - Of course.
- Tell me what's wrong. - [man] Yes, sir.
The golden icon has been stolen!
Wham, bam, the mayor's in a jam!
My gypsies did not steal your icon.
All right then, Aleyko. Who did?
We do not know. But why is it gypsies are blamed whenever anything is missing?
Why not? It is well known that stealing is a way of life with you people.
Be careful, little man.
To accuse a man of a crime simply because he is a gypsy,
or anything else, is something I cannot stand for.
- He has been warned. - Enough, Kalo.
[Scooter] Aleyko must be the gypsies' leader.
Would you call him a gypsy godfather?
Will you be quiet and listen!
For the last time, I tell you we did not steal your icon.
And for the last time, I tell you, if our icon is not returned by tomorrow,
you and your people will be thrown in jail until it is!
[all muttering]
Who else would have stolen the icon?
It had to be Aleyko and his gang.
And pursuing him will undoubtedly lead us to its present location.
Here he comes.
Let's go!
[Henry] Of course it's the guard! Stanley, he's the only one that could have done it.
But he said he was watching the gypsies.
You expect anyone who'd steal an icon to tell the truth?
Gee, I never thought of it that way.
There he goes.
[Stanley] Get that icon stealer, Henry!
Right!
- What are you supposed to be? - I am a gypsy, can't you tell?
♪ La, la, la, dee, dee ♪
- [humming] - Will you get out of that stupid disguise!
[Stanley humming]
OK, gang. We'll just cruise the area.
- They'll think we're tourists. - Good idea, chief.
- What do you think, Chu Chu? - [barks]
Do you think they'd keep the icon here in the camp?
That's my hunch. So keep your eyes peeled.
Aleyko's still on the same trail. Pick him up, Alan.
Roger, Annie. I got him! He's heading your way, Suzie.
OK, Alan. I see him. Get ready, Tom.
Tom? Tom, where are you?
- You all right, Tom? - Anne, this is fascinating!
I've just discovered a colony of Hymenoptera.
- Of what-era? - Ants.
Listen, you kook! We're supposed to be on a case.
Not a picnic. I think he should be there by now.
Tom!
He almost stepped on me.
That'll teach you to keep your mind on business.
- [Stanley] You think he knows we're following him? - [Henry] No.
But we better switch to something inconspicuous to make sure.
[Stanley] Right. Chan Plan Seven, coming up!
[buzzing]
[over PA] Vote for Harley Q. Pedwin for town council.
Vote for Harley Q. Pedwin...
- That's inconspicuous? - Don't you get it?
- Nobody would ever figure us for detectives. - And in your case,
they'd be right, you dumb-dumb!
[buzzing]
[Henry] That's inconspicuous.
Well, sure, but it doesn't show any imagination.
Just keep your eye on the guard.
[Flip] "Madame Menya foretells the future.
Crystal ball readings. Tarot cards.
- Phrenology." - What's "phrenelon..." "phregel..."
- That last word! - Phrenology.
I think it means reading the bumps on your head.
Correct, dear child.
No doubt, you wish a reading of your skull.
Come in, come in. Madame Menya sees all,
knows all, tells all.
Ah! This bump should tell us many things.
Yeah, I got that yesterday when I tripped over a chair.
Yes. Well, it is called the careless bump.
And it tells us you are a little careless.
- [all] Wow! - [Chu Chu whimpers]
- Now, this bump here... - I got that the day before yesterday.
- I walked into a lamp. - Of course.
This is known as the clumsy bump.
It shows you are very clumsy.
Boy, how does she do it?
I don't know, but I got an idea.
Maybe that crystal ball can tell us where the icon is.
Here is a beautiful bump.
- Where did you get it? - I think that one came with my head.
Excellent. This bump tells us that some enchanted evening
you will meet a stranger across a crowded room.
I hope we didn't lose Aleyko.
[Anne] Could you go a little faster, please? We're in a hurry.
Thank you.
- I'm beat. - Same here.
We can't quit now. Aleyko may be heading for the icon.
Look, a natural source of instant energy.
- [buzzing] - Look, it's honey!
Hey, that'll pick us up!
- Won't the bees get mad? - My zoological studies
have taught me the proper way to extract honey from a hive.
But first, we must examine it more closely.
- Be careful, Tom! - [buzzing]
[Tom] This shouldn't be too difficult.
- [buzzing] - Ow!
[Anne] Run!
[Alan] Faster!
Ouch!
[bubbling]
The guard's turning, Henry! Don't lose him!
- Don't worry! - Boy, is he in for a surprise when he...
Oh, boy! What do we do now?
Alan put in a new emergency plan X.
- Let's see if it works. - [clattering]
Get us out of this!
Plan X! Wait till I get that Alan!
Oh, boy! That's a relief!
Hey! Look where the guard is going!
[Stanley] Clock factory! What's he doing there?
[Henry] Let's follow him and find out!
The disgrace will be too much. I shall have to leave this town.
- But this is your home. - [mayor] The icon was my responsibility.
In fact, I built this shrine with my own hands!
- That is interesting. - I cannot stay. I shall have to leave here.
That is all, young mistress. You may cross my palm with silver.
- Uh, Madame Menya? - Yes, dear boy.
[Flip] Can that crystal ball tell me something?
[Menya] Anything. Whatever you wish to know,
the crystal ball will divulge. Speak your question.
Well, uh, you see, we...
We're tourists and we heard about a missing icon.
- Can you tell us where it is? - So!
The missing icon. You wish to know where it is.
- If it's not too much trouble. - Very well.
I shall ask the crystal ball.
Falala-caree, falala-caran,
where has the missing icon gone?
[whimpering]
Who speaks of the icon?
[all] Huh?!
[moaning]
[all] Yikes!
[moaning]
You and your honey! We may lose Aleyko for good!
Save your breath.
[all] Yikes!
Keep going!
[croaking]
All clear. He's gone.
One more minute and I'd have needed gills.
I suggest we leave this area immediately, if not sooner.
- [ticking] - [Stanley] Spooky place, huh, Henry?
Keep it down! Sh! Good spot for the guard to meet his accomplice.
- What time is it? - What?
I said, what time is it?
- [cuckoo clock sounding] - [clocks chiming]
It's six o'clock.
- [cuckoos] - Who asked you?
I think he's right. Come on, bird brain.
Well, there's nobody here.
This is just the warehouse part. Let's keep going.
I got a feeling the place is deserted.
Henry, I ever tell you the joke about the clock that didn't have a face?
- Ten times. - Oh.
- I wasn't talking to you. - Who were you talking to?
- This fella back here. - This... that fella?
[stammering] Back here!
- [both yelling] - Run, Henry!
- Anybody see that ghost? - Uh-uh.
- I think we lost him. - I hope.
Well, let's get going.
We gotta case the rest of this place.
- Do we have to? - Sure we have to,
if you're gonna find that icon, right, Scooter?
- Right, chief. - Well... Ouch!
That'll give Madame Menya another bump to read next time.
[snickering]
That creepy guy is still looking for us.
We've gotta do something. I have a plan which may succeed.
- It's working! - Now, if he'll just go for the handkerchief.
[yelling]
[yelling]
That should hold him for a while.
Let's get out of here.
I didn't think the joke was that bad!
Don't talk, run!
We're not doing this right, Henry.
You mean there's a wrong way to be chased?
Let's figure it out. Why are we running in the first place?
'Cause if we don't, we'll be clobbered in the second place.
That's what I mean. Whoever's chasing us,
why don't we chase him for a while?
Just how do you figure on doing that?
I'll show you. Let's hide in there.
[babbling]
Boy, you really scared him, dumb-dumb.
How'd you know it was me?
- No sing of Aleyko. - He has to be in that building.
- Why? - It's the only one in sight.
- Where else could he go? - I suggest we try it.
- We have no other alternative. - [Anne] Let's go.
We'll go in the back way. You and Alan go in the front so he can't get away.
Hold it down!
- I can't see a thing! - Just hang on to me.
My night vision is perfect.
I'd better take over before your perfect vision
gets us clobbered.
- It's a restaurant. - It's empty!
I guess we were wrong. Aleyko must have gone someplace else.
[man] It is not enough. I want more.
- That's Aleyko. - But that is all I have.
- There is no more. - We're just in time.
- He's selling the icon. - Let's apprehend the criminal!
No sale, Aleyko! There's not gonna be any more.
- You've had it. - I know I have had it.
But there must be one more taco in the kitchen. Or an enchilada.
- Taco? - Enchilada?
I have been waiting months for this. I cannot stand gypsy food!
- Oh, boy! - [Aleyko] But please, you must not tell anyone.
They would not let me be the gypsy leader if they found out.
Don't worry, Aleyko. We wouldn't want our pop to find out about this either.
- Got any more brilliant ideas? - Yeah.
Let's move it into high gear!
Phew! We sure fooled him that time, hey, Henry? [laughs]
[choking] You dummy! You made me swallow the clock!
Don't worry, Henry. There are a lot more. They'll never miss it.
- What now, chief? - Well, I think we should...
- Chu Chu! Where's Chu Chu? - He was here a minute ago.
There he is! He's taking dancing lessons!
[barking]
I wish he'd quite fooling around and tend to business.
- We gotta find that icon. - We've been looking for hours.
- Can't we leave now? - No way.
- We've got a crime to solve. - Yeah, we got a crime to solve.
- We're tired. - And I'm hungry.
You wanna be a detective? You gotta put up with that kind of stuff.
Till we find that icon, nothing's gonna make us move.
- Right, Scooter? - Right, chief. Nothing's gonna make us move.
- [moaning] - [all] Yikes!
Move!
Why don't we take a break for a while, Henry?
Because I wanna find that guard before he gets rid of the icon.
- Well... - [buzzing]
I think you're a little fast, Henry.
One of these days...
[man] I should get more than that. I deserve it!
- It's him. It's the guard. - Well, what are we waiting for?
- You'll get what you deserve. - Better believe it.
Why, it's our American visitors.
- You bet it is. - See? Even they think I deserve more money
as a night watchman.
- Night watchman? - Here?
Yes. With the icon gone, there is no need for a guard.
And I need a job.
- We need something too. - Yeah. [laughs]
A couple of new heads.
[Charlie] Don't bother, Mr. Mayor.
- It is you, Chan. - I'm afraid you
won't be allowed to take the icon when you leave.
- How did you know? - The wall was too clean.
There was no mark where the icon had been.
That, plus your having built this building,
- told the story. - I guess that wraps up another caper. Right, Scooter?
Right, chief. Suppose they'll ever learn not to fool with us Chans?
[Flip] It's that day again, Pop.
- [chuckles] What day is that? - Boy.
For a world-famous detective, you sure forget easy when allowance time comes around.
Perhaps I was merely testing your memories.
- We won't forget. - Very well.
All line up, except Henry, Nancy and Chu Chu.
- Hey, Pop! - [barks]
It seems that Nancy owes Madame Menya a fee
for reading the bumps on her head.
- Oh, boy. - And Henry owes for a clock he swallowed.
Stanley ought to pay for half of that.
But what does Chu Chu owe you for?
One dancing lesson from a gypsy bear.
