[voice over]
The Case of the Unhappy Camper.

Okay, this is a special...
Maudie move over.

-Then I won't be in shot.
-[Ava] Can you see me?

No, you need to squash up, Ava.

-I can hardly breathe.
-Me neither, I am so excited!

That's not what I meant.

This is a special edition of
The Inbestigators coming to you from...

-The Grade Five camp!
-The Grade Five camp.

Tonight, is the concert
and today we had kayaking...

We should tell them about archery.



And what about the mystery
that needed to be solved?

-[Ava] Of course.
-[Maudie] Absolutely.

-But can we quickly tell them about...
-The cabins!

-Yes! The cabins are so much fun.
-This is ours.

-And Ezra's in a group with...
-I can say who's in my group.

So, there was,

[Ava/Ezra] Kyle, Archie, James.

Sorry, way too excited. Go on.

[Ezra] My cabin group was Kyle,
Archie, James, Diet, Justin and me.

And we had a really cool cabin
with six bunk beds.

[Kyle/Ezra] I bags top bunk!

Yes!

If I had tried to throw
my sleeping bag out the window,

it probably would have
landed on the top bunk.



-As cabin leader, here are my rules.
-[Ezra] Wait!

Who made you cabin leader?

Everyone. We just had a vote.

That's unfair,
I was out here getting my sleeping bag!

Okay, fine.
Hands up who would have voted for Ezra?

-Kyle was being really annoying.
-He really was.

Cabin Rule number one.
No Girls Allowed. Ava, Maudie out.

-No.
-We need to give you your duty roster.

Rule number two. No Duty Roster!

Yeah, whatever.
You, Ezra, James, Justin and Archie,

are on dinner set up with Caitlin,
Maudie and me.

Rule number three, no one goes to sleep.

I wish Kyle's Mum wouldn't give him
so many lollies to eat on the bus.

I had never seen Kyle be so silly.

Being silly is one thing.
Being mean is something very different.

Rule number five. No vomiting.
Archie, that means you!

Kyle, don't be so horrible.

I'm not! Archie chucked up at my place,

and had to go home
half way through a sleepover.

That was ages ago.

But you won't sleep over any more,
because you're scared you'll vomit.

Can I sleep on the top?

-Rule number six. No books.
-Yes books! Put them down!

Ezra, that's not even my rule.

Miss Tan said no phones,
no tablets, no books.

So, at camp next week, no phones.

But Miss,
what if we want to call our parents?

Oh, you'll all survive, Archie, I promise.
And no tablets.

-But what if we want to play a game?
-Yeah, what if we get bored?

You won't have time to get bored,

trust me, and if you're worried,
bring as many books as you like.

Miss Tan literally said
the opposite of 'no books'. Kyle?

[Ezra/Maudie/Ava] Kyle! No! Stop!

[Kookaburra sings]

Guys, I've watched a lot of movies
and this is what happens at camp.

We do pranks and we all go wild!

Kyle was a bit confused about camp.

We needed to set him straight
and when I say we, I mean Ava.

Kyle Klimson, I don't care what you've
seen on TV, because it's not what camp is.

It's not?

You need to apologise to Ezra
for taking his books,

and to Archie for being
so insensitive about sleepovers.

Sorry Archie. Sorry Ezra.
Sorry everyone. Sorry, who else, Ava?

That'll do.

Can I still do some of my pranks?

-As long as you don't hurt anyone.
-Woo!

But you won't have time,
because we have a full day of activities!

Turns out Kyle did have time.

-[cockatoo screeches]
-And that's the sound of a cockatoo.

-[kookaburra calls]
-And that's a kookaburra.

-[squawky screech]
-And that's a... Kyle?

-[Kyle screeches]
-[children giggle]

A lot of time.

Want some sauce with that?

Too much time.

[groaning, grunting]

[Mr McGillick] That's it team!

-[Mr McGillick] Miss Paridies.
-Come on!

[groaning, grunting]

Snake! Snake!

-[children scream]
-[Miss Tan exclaims]

Rubber snake. Kyle!

Kyle's pranks kept going when
our duty group had to set up dinner.

-Where. Is. Kyle?
-[Kyle] I'm right here!

Kyle was under the teachers' table,
while the rest of us were working.

Kyle, could you please come and help us?

Ava, maybe it will be quicker if we
don't fold the napkins into swans.

Quicker maybe. Sadder definitely.
Where are James and Justin?

Has anyone seen my phone?

I think James and Justin
are outside playing. I'll go get them.

[Ava] No Archie, wait!

Archie ran out to get James and Justin,
and we still had 35 swan napkins to fold.

Could everyone please
concentrate on their jobs?

No, could everyone please concentrate
on finding my phone?

I mean, it was right there.

[Mr McGillick] Kyle, what's so funny?

What's that behind your back?

Why do you have a tub of flour?

Because I'm on bread duty.

We had no idea why Kyle had a tub of flour
he was buttering bread not making it.

Kyle was up to something.

And at dinner,
we found out what that something was.

Kyle!

Kitchen, now!

-Mr McGillick took Kyle into the kitchen.
-And it wasn't to make more pappadams.

You put my phone in a tub of rice!

Pranking us was annoying, pranking
the Principal was next level naughty.

I didn't do that!

You were hanging around
the teachers' table, where I left my phone

-with a tub of flour.
-Because I was...

And then I find my phone in a tub of rice!

I was around the teachers' table,
because I was going...

Well if you love
the teachers' table so much,

you can come and sit there right now.

[Ezra] Sitting at the teachers' table,

is like when I go to Uncle Keith
and Aunty June's house,

and they show me all their holiday photos.

I hope it doesn't rain
for abseiling tomorrow.

I'll check the forecast.

And my phone's dead... Kyle!

Kyle had really done it this time.

Your little rice prank
has broken my phone!

Mr McGillick, I swear it wasn't me!
I was going to prank you with...

I don't want to hear
about any more pranks.

You're sitting out of the camp concert.

The Grade Five camp concert
is the event of the year.

Mr McGillick, I cannot allow this!
Kyle is the host of the show!

-Ava do you like cold curry?
-No.

Then I suggest you go and eat
your dinner while it's still hot.

I was so cross,
I couldn't think about food.

Me either.

Why did Kyle have to ruin our concert?
It was such a dumb prank.

Yeah... it was a dumb prank.

That's what I just said.

No, I mean it was a dumb prank,
not a good prank,

not the sort of pranks he's been doing,
to scare people, or make people laugh.

[laughter]

Like that one.

[laughter continues]

We saw why Kyle had
the tub of flour under the teachers table.

He was putting it on their seats,
so, they would have white bottoms!

-[Ezra and Maudie giggle]
-Now, do you see what I mean?

That's a Kyle prank.
It's supposed to make you laugh.

[laughter]

[Maudie] And it's harmless.

Putting Mr McGillick's phone
in a tub of rice is not a Kyle prank.

It's not funny,
and it's actually kind of mean.

-[Ezra grunts]
-Ezra's choking!

[Ezra] Mm!

-I wasn't choking.
-Oh, sorry.

I just remembered something
from Mr Barker's IT club.

Today, we're doing an experiment...
whoops!

-Get it out!
-You ruined your phone!

I better call 1800 rice!

And if my hypothesis is correct,
the rice will fix my phone.

And it worked!

Mr Barker said that rice absorbs
the water inside the phone,

which makes it work again.

Kyle must have got
Mr McGillick's phone wet,

-and then...
-[Maudie] Wait!

Would Kyle know
that rice can fix a wet phone?

[all] No!

We were sure Kyle didn't do the prank.

So, we felt really sorry for him
all throughout dinner.

[Ava] Poor Kyle.

Not even four servings of dessert
have cheered him up.

So, if he didn't take
Mr McGillick's phone, who did?

It was time to stage a re-enactment.

[Ezra]
Kyle was under the teachers' table here.

[Ava] Archie and I were folding napkins.

[Maudie] Ezra and I were at the servery.

[Ezra] Caitlin was setting up the tables.

And Mr McGillick left his phone
right here on the teachers' table.

-Who's the mustard, you or Archie?
-Archie. I'm the tomato sauce.

And don't forget about the teaspoons.

Who are the teaspoons?

Justin and James.

Oh, yeah!

They were outside,
instead of doing their jobs,

so, Archie went to get them.

But then none of them came back,
so, I went to find them all.

James! Justin!

[both] What?!

Come inside and help, and where's...
Archie!

Ava! You gave me a fright!

Sorry, but I need you all to come
inside and help me carry the curries.

Yeah, I'm just washing my hands.

Good. James and Justin,
could you please wash your hands too?

-Oh! I just remembered something.
-You saw who did it?!

No. Dinner's over.
We have to wipe down the tables.

Good. We can tell Kyle
who put the phone in the rice.

I must have missed
something between the pea,

the mustard, the cups and the teaspoons.

Maudie knows who put
Mr McGillick's phone in the rice.

You do? Who? How? When?
Why can't I stop asking questions?

It was Archie.

The mustard did it?

Archie didn't have
the phone when I saw him.

That's because he'd dropped it
in the sink when you startled him.

[Ava] Archie!

Ava! You gave me a fright!

-[Maudie] The phone was in the sink but...
-[Exra] Archie,

is in Mr Barker's IT club.
He knew that rice could fix wet phones.

And when he was helping
Ava carry out the curries,

he must have slipped
the phone into the tub of rice.

Archie did this?! Where is he?!

[Ava] Kyle, wait!

No! Archie let Mr McGillick
think that I wrecked his phone,

and got me kicked out of the concert,

and I want to tell him how angry I am!

I know, but you're going the wrong way.
Archie's in the kitchen.

Oh.

Archie was on washing up duty with...

[Ava] Mr McGillick?

Even though Kyle
was really angry with Archie.

He didn't want to just dob and get
him in trouble with Mr McGillick.

Especially because it was a bit his fault.

My fault? How is this my fault?!

Because you were mean to Archie
about being scared of sleepovers,

and he got worried
he was going to get sick.

I think he took the phone to call his Mum.

Kyle felt bad and thought he should say,

that he put Mr McGillick's
phone in the rice after all.

Luckily, he didn't have to.

[Mr McGillick] Kyle.

I owe you an apology.

Someone else explained that they
took my phone and it wasn't you.

And, I'm sorry.

Thanks Archie.

I mean someone else who isn't you,
who could be anyone.

Archie told Mr McGillick all by himself.

I'm sorry Archie, I mean, someone else,
for making you feel scared.

-We're not sure if Archie got in trouble.
-But Mr McGillick was really nice.

And because he told Mr McGillick
about feeling scared,

Archie wasn't worried any more.

Ezra put Mr McGillick's phone back
in the rice and it worked again, and...

Mr McGillick was so happy, he let
us use his phone to file this report.

And, Miss Tan lent us hers too.

But the best part was that Kyle is
allowed to be part of the concert again,

and I'm doing a dance
with Pixie and Amelia,

Ezra and Maudie are doing a puppet show,
and Kyle is being the camp concert host.

[Kyle] Ghost!

Kyle, you're the host, not a ghost.

-You said ghost.
-I said host.

Why would I have cut up this sheet,
if you said host?

Did you cut holes in my sheet?!

[Mr Mc Gilick] Can we all head
to the hall for the concert please?!

Now, where's Kyle?
Has anybody seen our host?

Pretty sure he said ghost.

[upbeat instrumental rock music playing]

[voice over]
The Case of the Triple Inbestigation.

Last week Ezra called
an emergency video conference.

Sorry to wake you everyone,
but this couldn't wait.

I've finally come up with an idea
for our Inbestigators commercial.

-You have?!
-I've got Neil Armstrong to star.

Neil Armstrong the first man on the moon?!

No, Neil Armstrong, my goldfish.

Guys? Guys? I think you've frozen.

We had frozen. In shock.

Ezra had woken us up to pitch this idea?

I already came up with the idea!

We drop out of a helicopter
onto the tallest building in town.

All we need is one point eight million
dollars and the keys to the city.

Or, we need no money
and the key to our office.

We had to admit; Ezra's goldfish was cute.

And cheap.

We agreed to get together
on Sunday to make the ad.

But there was a problem.

Neil's gone!

The goldfish bowl had no goldfish.

I should never have moved
him out of my bedroom.

I was worried about him
being too hot over Summer.

And out here I could control his
water temperature and his oxygenation.

But that was a mistake.
I made him a target.

A target?

For thieves. Neil's been stolen.

Who would want to steal a goldfish?

When did you last see Neil?

Yesterday when I fed him.

Did you notice anything strange?

No.

Would he have any reason to run away?

I'm sorry,
we have to ask the tough questions.

What time did you feed him?

It was before I went to band practice
at Mario's so, maybe four?

Wait! I was here after that!

I'd had a sleepover at Amelia's
across the road, and while I was there,

I noticed that our Inbestigators
recycling bin was still out on the street,

so, Amelia and I ran to put it away.

When we got around the back, we saw
Poppy coming out of the office so we...

Poppy was in here?

Hi Ava, hi Amelia.

Oh, hi Poppy!

I was just doing homework.
And I need to borrow this bucket.

She took our red bucket?

What was in it?

I don't know.

I really hoped it wasn't a goldfish.

It was definitely a goldfish.

She doesn't have one any more,
and now she wants a rabbit,

but my Mum said she's
too little to look after it.

If she wants a rabbit,
why would she steal a fish?

Let's ask her.

Ezra said we need to bring
Poppy in for questioning,

and I had to wait outside
because I was a witness,

and Kyle had to wait outside with me,
so, he wouldn't interrupt.

Let's go over it again.

-Why were you in the office?
-I was doing my homework.

Sure, you were.
Why couldn't you do it in the house?

It was too noisy.

Dad was vacuuming,
and Mum was blow drying her hair.

[Ava] Ooh, Ezra, that's true, because

-while Amelia and I were...
-[Ezra] Ava! Be quiet!

You can interrogate with manners, Ezra!

We know about all the red bucket, Poppy.
We have a witness.

Ezra, are you saying anything now?

Admit it, Poppy,
Neil was in the red bucket!

Who's Neil?

My goldfish!

Oh, you mean Sparkles.

Sparkles?!

Mum said I can't have a rabbit,
so, when I'm with your fish,

I pretend he's mine,
and his name is Sparkles.

Ha! I knew it!

[Ava gasps] So Poppy has the goldfish?

Where is he?

Where's who?

Sparkles, I mean Neil.

There. Wait!
What did you do with Sparkles?!

Poppy doesn't have the goldfish.

But when you were in here Poppy,
you definitely saw Sparkles?

Neil!

The goldfish, in the bowl.

Yes.
I remember because I sang him a song.

♪ Sparkles, Sparkles little fish ♪

♪ How I wish you weren't a fish ♪

♪ But a rabbit instead ♪

You need to work on the ending.

Poppy... one last thing...
what's on your fingers?

Paint... I was...
finger painting yesterday.

For my homework.

She gets finger painting for homework?
Why can't I be in Grade three?

-Ezra agreed to let Poppy go...
-[popcorn pops]

...but he wasn't happy about it.

If she doesn't know anything,
why was she acting so guilty?

[Kyle] And what was in the red bucket?

Guys, why are you still outside?

Oh, yeah.

This must have been what
Poppy was finger painting.

Oh! That is adorable!

How did she make the
paw prints with her fingers?

Imagine that on pyjamas.

Who put one of our evidence
bags in the recycling bin.

And why is it wet?

Oh, I must have accidentally,
when Amelia and I came in.

Uh oh.

Uh oh, what oh?

I just remembered.
Neil was definitely in his goldfish bowl.

I felt terrible that I had let Ezra
interrogate Poppy for nothing.

But Maudie said,

Maybe not for nothing.
How do you know Neil was in his bowl?

Because I noticed that
our desk was all messy,

and we'd left
our forensic testing kit out.

Alright, I'm sorry!

I always presume that I'm
the one who made the mess.

So, I went to tidy it up,
and that's when Amelia said,

-Oh, you poor little thing.
-[Ava] Who?

Neil Armstrong.
I feel sorry for him in that bowl.

Do you think he wishes
he could have a bigger swim?

No, he doesn't, because he lives in a
perfectly proportioned bowl for his size.

What he wishes is to star
in a commercial this morning.

Where are you going?

To Amelia's!
She has a fish pond at her house,

I bet Neil is swimming in there right now.

Ezra! Amelia and I left together!
She didn't have a goldfish!

Poor Ezra. He really missed Neil.

Cheer up buddy. There's plenty
more fish in the... pet store.

Ava, how did you know Ezra's Mum
was blow drying her hair?

Oh, because we talked about it in here.

[door opens]

Oh, hi Sarah!

Oh, Ava, Amelia,
I didn't think anyone was in here.

Sarah! Your hair looks a-may-zing!

Thank you. I just blow dried it.

How do you get it so bouncy?

-Well, I tip my head upside down...
-I love it!

So, you've only got one earring!

[Ezra] Wait!

Are we talking about the ruby earrings
my Dad just gave my Mum for her birthday?

Why did she only have one?

I took it out.

Don't tell Ezra's Dad, but it was um,
hurting a bit, so...

Anyway, I'll leave you to it.

-Your mum walked out...
-And snuck the goldfish with her.

-No.
-Then why was she

acting so weird,
and in such a hurry to leave?

Because her ear was hurting.

Which is why I had to go make
her my remedy for sore earlobes.

So, it's half a cup of warm water,

a teaspoon of salt,
but I think the secret is lavender oil.

The vacuum cleaner was still going.
Your Dad is very thorough.

He listens to podcasts while he vacuums.
He calls it his me time.

So,
Amelia was still in here all that time?

Yes. Where are you going?

To get Ezra's mum.
She obviously took the goldfish.

No, she didn't! Did she?

So, Sarah.
Do you mind if I call you Sarah?

You always call me Sarah.

Mm.
Do you know what I've never called you?

-[bangs the table]
-A thief. Until now.

What? Look kids, I'm sorry,
I don't have time for this,

I want to make spanakopita for lunch.

Ha! Spanakopita... very convenient.

And, also, very delicious.
Can I have some too?

Of course.

Mum, what were you doing
in here yesterday afternoon?

I wasn't in here yesterday afternoon.

[Ava gasps]

[Ava] That is so not true!

-Why is Ava outside?
-She's a witness.

A very loud witness.

Oh! You mean when Ava
was in here with Amelia?

[Ava] That's exactly when we mean!

What have you got to hide Sarah?!

I may have got a bit carried away.

Sorry, Ava! I forgot because
I was distracted when I saw you.

I did something terrible.

You took Neil?

-What?
-You stole my goldfish!

Of course I didn't steal your goldfish!
No, I...

Lost your ruby earring.

Yes.

[Ava] I was like,

excuse me, but what is happening?

You lost the earring Dad gave you?

Maudie, how... Did you find it?

-No.
-Wait, so Sarah,

- you didn't have a sore earlobe?
-No.

I'm sorry Ava,
I was looking for my earring.

-Which you thought you dropped in here?
-Not really.

I was sure I had it when I was
drying my hair in my bedroom,

but I've searched everywhere!

Poor Sarah.

We'd started with one lost thing,
and now we had two.

And we had no idea where to find them.

I think I know where to find them.

We had no idea. Maudie had lots of ideas.

So, Ezra fed his goldfish Neil,

at four o'clock...

just before he went to Mario's
house for band practice.

Meanwhile, in the house,

Sarah was blow-drying her hair,
Ezra's Dad was vacuuming,

and Poppy was waiting for Ezra to leave,
so, she could come over to the office.

-Right! To do her homework.
-Not to do her homework.

To play with our forensic testing kit.

She wasn't finger painting,
she was finger printing.

Paint would have washed off last night.

But. ink from our
fingerprinting set wouldn't have!

Exactly. Poppy came in,

sat at the desk, and played with
our detective stuff and her toys.

-That's why everything was left out!
-It wasn't me!

How did you know she had toys?

Well, she must have at least one,
does she have a toy dog?

-Michelle.
-Michelle.

-[Maudie] She took Michelle's paw prints.
-[Ava] Oh, my goodness!

The sheet you found in the bin!

That's right, she was doing this when she
heard you and Amelia bringing in the bin.

She threw the paper in the recycling,

but then must have seen that
Michelle's paws were covered in ink,

so, she panicked, and grabbed
our red bucket from the kitchen,

and shoved the puppy inside it.

So, you wouldn't see her inky paws.

-She is in so much trouble.
-Ezra! What happened next, Maudie?

You and Amelia came in here,

at the exact same time Sarah
noticed her earring was missing.

She looked everywhere,
but she couldn't find it,

because I think...

Ezra's Dad had vacuumed it up.

He vacuumed my earring?

I'm not sure, but that would make sense.

Yes! Dad would've been too involved
in his me time podcast to notice.

Daniel! Please don't tell me you've
emptied the vacuum cleaner!

I really hoped she'd find that earring.

I really hope we'll find my fish!
Maudie, what happened to Neil?

Well.
Nobody left the office with a goldfish.

But Ava left Amelia,

in the office next to a goldfish.

Amelia was worried that Neil
didn't have enough space. So...

Maudie walked over to the bathroom.

If someone wanted to give a goldfish
a big swim, they might put him in...

-The toilet!
-Neil!

[Kyle] I mean, the bath.

Amelia must have put Neil
in one of our evidence bags.

That's why it was wet!

And while Ava was making
Sarah her earlobe remedy,

she let Neil acclimatize
to the bath water.

-I can't believe she did this to him!
-[Ava] Amelia, how could you?!

Ezra's been worried sick!

Amelia says she's really sorry,
she meant to tell me but she forgot.

You thought you were doing Neil a favour,
but his tank is perfectly...

-Proportioned.
-Proportioned.

-And oxygenated.
-And oxygenated.

Also,
plastic bags do not go in the recycling.

Ezra was so happy to have Neil back.

And,
he wasn't the only person who was happy.

-[door opens]
-Maudie, you were right!

The ruby earring
was in the vacuum cleaner!

How can I thank you?!

Some spanakopita would be nice.

On it. Oh, and uh,
Poppy has something to say.

-You found Sparkles!
-Not that.

I'm sorry I used your detective things
when you weren't here.

That's okay, Poppy.
Also, that puppy paw print is divine.

Maudie, that was unbelievable.

Maudie had solved
the mystery of the red bucket,

the mystery of the lost earring,
and the mystery of the missing goldfish.

We tried to tell her that she was
literally the most amazing person we know,

but she said,

Guys, we don't have time for that!
We need to make an ad.
