Episode 1: The Telegram

CaptainWacky walked quickly down a cobblestone path, he looked behind him but could not see if he was still being followed. It had started innocently enough, working in Queen Victoria's private library, he had been tasked him with compiling a master list of dancers. CaptainWacky had no issue with such individuals, but knew it better to question her Majesty. He liked lists, one reason he went along with it, his search had brought him to Tobar Mhoire and that is where the trouble began. He was sure but could not prove that he was being followed, and some of his possessions had gone missing in the room above the tavern he was staying at. CaptainWacky had done one sensible thing before leaving, he sent a telegram to some old friends. He just hoped they got it before it was too late.

London:

Cassie and Dr Dave sat in a tavern in a modest part of London. They had come for a meeting of The Detectives council, but found it boring and full mostly of amatures and playboys. While Cassie had added some dong drawings to her collection, it had been mostly a wasted trip.

"We should have known this would be a waste of time." noted Detective Dr Dave, taking a sip from his tankerd of ale.

"Yes, especially since the invitation had come from that playboy Duke Forthworth." replied Cassie.

A street urchin walked up to their table "Excuse me guv, might you be Detective Dr Dave?" he asked.

"Perhaps." Detective Dr Dave replied, always hesitant to answer any question from a child.

"I have a telegram from a CaptainWacky, he must be a ship captain!" said the street urchin

"Something like that." he replied, taking the note and handing the boy a half sovereign. He immedity read the note and told Cassie it's contents.

"Sounds like he's in some trouble." said Cassie

"Indeed." replied Detective Dr Dave

"We should go help him." said Cassie

"Indeed." replied Detective Dr Dave

Episode 2: Park Bench

CaptainWacky ran down an alley way, he hoped this would work out, but he didn't quite know where he was going. He was sure he was being followed and as he rounded the corner he saw a man on a park bench,

"Loktar!" shouted CaptainWacky

"Get on!" replied Loktar

"How did you know...how did..." said CaptainWacky

"I didn't, the bench has mysterious ways!" replied Loktar

...

Cassie and Detective Dr Dave sat in a first class compartment on a train that would take them into Scotland. They began reviewing what they knew about CaptainWacky. They were never quite sure how he had gotten to be a Captain, but knew he had worked at a london paper rating local royal celebrities. He was most recently employed at Queen Victoria's private library.

"He was quite excited" noted Detective Dr Dave

"Yes, his latest letter had the word excited 57 times, a record I believe." replied Cassie

"Indeed" said Detective Dr Dave

"Could his current situation be related to his work there?" asked Cassie

"It's possible. I will dispatch a telegram when we reach Scotland." said Detective Dr Dave

"Didn't he get some flack when he worked at that paper?" asked Cassie

"Yes, he have some poor ratings to some royals. I think in one he used the phrase 'silly looking tosspot" replied Detective Dr Dave

"We should look into that." said Cassie

"Indeed, this could be about nearly anything." replied Detective Dr Dave, who went to looking out the window as he contemplated the case.

Episode 3: Cassie get your knife (EU version titled "Untitled") Part 1.

Cassie and Dr Dave got off the train in Tobar Mhoire, it was a mid sized town who's chief export was fancy fishes and cute match box models.

"Where did CaptainWacky say he was staying?" asked Cassie

"A hotel called 'The hot Mongoose'" replied Detective Dr Dave

Cassie looked at a map that was on the wall that listed local hotels and dining establishments.

"It looks like it's a block off the main road" stated Cassie.

"Then let us be off." replied CaptainWacky

The pair arrived at the hotel. While it was not the best hotel in town, it was not a dump like the pair expected by the name (Mongooses being dirty and shifty creatures), none the less the hotel seemed to be in a bit of dissaray.

Detective Dr Dave walked up to the front desk and asked the clerk "We're looking for CaptainWacky's room".

"He's not here anymore, didn't even pay hus bill!" replied the Clerk.

"When did he leave, good sir?" asked Detective Dr Dave

"Not long ago, after he wreacked the room!" said the clerk in an exacerbated tone

"We should go look." Detective Dr Dave as he turned to Cassie

"Agreed. CaptainWacky would never wreck a hotel room." said Cassie

"Certainly not after Amsterdam." noted Detective Dr Dave
