Just when I thought the worst thing in the world happened, the worst thing in
the worst thing in the world happened.
I just found out that my best friend Griffin
is running the Nigerian scam
And using it to steal money right out of the mouths of stuffed animals.
When I also found out that he's using my name
as his password which is a sure sign of a crush.
And I was out shopping with Hailey, against my will might I add,
when I ran into Diana who hates me for highly mysterious reasons.
Then I got distracted by Flint Shearson who is dating
a former military commander
who happens to teach computers at my school
and is also a very suspicious character.
Which was a big mistake because the next thing I know I was stopped for
shoplifting.
POLICE OFFICER: Did you pay for this?
I didn't even know it was in my backpack.
POLICE OFFICER: I suppose you don't know about this.
Or this.
Or this.
Officer, I can explain. It wasn't me. I was framed.
See that girl over there, Diana Noughton?
She was there a minute ago.
Are these yours?
SHOPKEEPER: Yes.
Thank you.
This is a very serious matter, young lady.
Remember what I said before out the worst thing in the world happening?
This isn't it.
Shoplifting is stealing. But this, this is a serious offence.
**RINGING**
My parents were pretty pissed off and I've been grounded till I'm 27.
But I only got three years for shoplifting. The rest is for a more serious offence.
Apparently when you take your sister shopping
you're supposed to bring her home.
None of that was so bad. But this next part?
POLICE OFFICER: Your son's friend here, Ruby Skye, has evidence showing
that Griffin is involved in a string of email frauds.
You're collecting evidence against me?
No. Well, technically yes. But I didn't think you were guilty
most of the time.
You can't be serious.
We've received a number of complaints from the neighbourhood.
Victims of email fraud.
And young Miss Skye seems to have traced
the scam to your son's email account.
This is a joke.
No, sir. Metro police don't find anything funny
about email fraud.
We're going to have to take your computer.
It's evidence.
I didn't steal anything.
And you could end up in jail.
Don't say another word. I'm going to call my lawyer, David Cohn.
Thanks a lot, Ruby.
Griffin, I'm sorry. I'll get you out of this. I promise.
You! Stay out of it!
**RINGING**
And there it is. The worst thing that could ever happen.
Griffin!

Okay. I was wrong.
This is even worse.
Next time on Ruby Skye P.I.
Several of my animals truly believe in you.
Wow, you just missed another opportunity to shut up.
What she said.
Can you back up and explain this to me?
