Weird But True (2016–…): Season 1, Episode 16 - The Case of the Stolen Bike - full transcript
Charlie's bike is gone after he leaves it on his porch. Kirby and he want to learn how to crack the case so they contact a crime scene investigator who introduces them to crime scene tape and a camera, and gel lift kit and footprint kit.
CHARLIE: Hey guys!
Charlie here!
Lot's going on today.
We got a classic
3-45 on our hands.
Petty theft
occurred this morning.
Suspects, few.
Motive, uncertain.
Donut uhhh...
chocolate.
But don't worry about
it because we got our
investigators on the scene.
KIRBY: Found a thumb print!
CHARLIE: Throw it in
with the rest of 'em.
It's time for Weird but True!
(theme music plays).
Dark mysteries.
Weird facts.
One woman hopes to
unravel them all.
KIRBY: It was a chilly day.
Too chilly.
The kind of chill that
would make a popsicle shiver.
When that very un-chill
man barged into my office.
CHARLIE: Detective Kirby?!?!
KIRBY: That's the name.
Who's askin'?
CHARLIE: Kirb, it's Charlie.
KIRBY: What seems to be
the problem, Charles?
CHARLIE: Kirbs, it's horrible!
Ahh I'd just gotten back from
a bike ride with my friend
Patrick.
Ahh...
I'm gonna go get
some ice cream.
PATRICK: Cool.
I'm gonna circle the block.
CHARLIE: Alright.
I ran inside for one minute
and by the time I came back,
my bike was gone!
Nooo!!
It was stolen!
You gotta help me out!
KIRBY: Who's this Patrick kid?
One of Charlie's goons?
Why ice cream?
It's like ten degrees outside.
Like a broken calculator,
this story just didn't add up.
And that's when I realized...
Charles, I don't know
anything about solving crime.
CHARLIE: Really?
Me neither.
KIRBY: Huh.
CHARLIE: I guess that's what
we're doing today, unraveling
the world of...
KIRBY: Forensic Science!
CHARLIE: Forensic Science!
Hey guys, we're
just waiting for...
BOB: Package!
CHARLIE: Perfect.
BOB: Sign here.
KIRBY: Thanks Bob!
CHARLIE: We got
a great mailman.
KIRBY: So, forensics science.
CHARLIE: Forensic science.
Alright real talk guys,
my bike was stolen and I
have absolutely no idea
what happened to it.
KIRBY: Bummer.
CHARLIE: So, we ordered this
book to help us learn how
crimes like this are handled.
Let's check it out.
Sooo...
Let's say your
favorite plant is stolen.
KIRBY: It's gone!
CHARLIE: The first thing
you do is call the police.
(phone rings).
CHARLIE: What's up?
KIRBY: My favorite
plant was stolen.
CHARLIE: We'll be
there in two seconds!
The first person to arrive
at the crime scene is a
police officer.
The officer establishes a
border and makes sure the area
is preserved for evidence.
The next person on
location is a CSI aka
crime scene investigator.
They're the ones that
carefully find and collect
evidence that can be
analyzed for forensic clues:
an artichoke, a small wedge
of cheese,
a large wedge of cheese,
anything that might help
solve the case.
Once they finish
examining the scene they
take their findings to...
our third expert, the
forensic scientist.
They're basically
smart scientists that
use their scientific
knowledge to solve crimes.
Such as analyzing DNA
or testing fingerprints.
He did it!
PATRICK: What!?!?
CHARLIE: Cool, cool.
So forensic scientists are the
ones that are actually working
with the evidence to find clues.
KIRBY: And they can find
clues in the weirdest ways.
CHARLIE: Check it out,
these are all true stories...
KIRBY: What a life,
being a Forensic Scientist.
CHARLIE: Oh it's, it's crazy.
KIRBY: Crazy.
CHARLIE: I tell you about the
guys we uh nabbed last week?
KIRBY: Who?
CHARLIE: The Fried
Chicken Burglar?
So this guy he's
robbing a house, right?
PATRICK: Ohh!
CHARLIE: Gets hungry,
eats some fried chicken,
sips some OJ, and books it.
This guy's hand was so
greasy from the chicken,
he left fingerprints all
over the bottle of OJ.
So we ID'd this guy based
off his greasy fried chicken
fingerprints.
KIRBY: Crazy!
Did I tell you about the
guy we locked up on Tuesday?
The Sticky
Fingered Selfie Snatcher.
So this guy, he steals
a lady's phone, right?
(evil laughter).
Starts taking selfies with
it, like a model or something.
Our boys hack into the phone's
cloud storage and get one of
these selfies.
Posted it around the area...
CHARLIE: Excuse me.
KIRBY: And boom the
guy's turned-in.
CHARLIE: You're under arrest!
PATRICK: No!
KIRBY: His selfies
helped us catch him.
CHARLIE: Did I tell you
about the group we nabbed
on Friday, though?
The Litter Bug Bandit?
So these kids, right?
They're stealing some snacks
from a gas station, like
some hot shot felons.
Ditch the scene
in a getaway car.
Munching on the snacks,
and tossing the wrappers
out the window.
So I got one of our
police dogs, followed
the trail of litter,
and found the crooks.
HEY!
So these guys, their
litter helped us catch 'em.
KIRBY: It's a crazy job.
CHARLIE: Crazy.
PATRICK: More coffee?
CHARLIE: We're good, thanks.
KIRBY: Alright, so we got
a crime scene right now.
Who do we need to call?
CHARLIE: We need a
crime scene investigator.
KIRBY: Exactly, and guys, we
found the perfect lady to call
CHARLIE: Rebecca Hooks,
she's a Crime Scene
Investigator with the Illinois
State Police department.
Giving her a call right now.
(phone rings).
REBECCA: Crime Scene Services.
CHARLIE: My bike
just got stolen!
REBECCA: That's terrible!
CHARLIE: Can you help us out?
REBECCA: I'll be
there in five seconds.
(doorbell rings).
CHARLIE: She's here!
KIRBY: I'll get it!
Sargent Rebecca Hooks, she's
an expert on evidence
gathering and processing.
Rebecca's favorite Weird
but True fact is, that
fingerprints can last up to
40 years on paper!
CHARLIE: Hey
Rebecca, how's it going?
REBECCA: Fine how
are you Charlie?
CHARLIE: I'm really glad
you're here 'cause this is
what you do right?
REBECCA: This is
what I do everyday.
CHARLIE: Awesome so
where do we start?
REBECCA: So we got
a camera kit.
KIRBY: Awesome.
REBECCA: Crime scene tape...
KIRBY: Very cool.
CHARLIE: Ok
REBECCA: These are gel lifts.
We're gonna use these to
collect any footwear we might
find.
Fingerprint kit, and a
fancy footwear light.
CHARLIE: Ready to go?
REBECCA: We're ready.
CHARLIE: Alright this is
where it all happened.
We started biking up here, I
went inside that door, came
out with some ice cream,
I left my bike right here,
and when we came out, gone.
REBECCA: Ok. Stop right there.
I'm gonna have you back up
because you're walking in the
crime scene and we're going to
put up some crime scene
tape to prevent any
further contamination.
CHARLIE: Let's do it!
Alright guys, first step,
you gotta rope off the
crime scene.
You gotta make it a little
bigger than the spot where it
just happened 'cause you never
know where you're
gonna find evidence.
You gotta make sure that
nobody comes in and
contaminates your area.
REBECCA: Ok next step,
we're going inside to
look for evidence,
but we're gonna wanna make
sure that we don't contaminate
the scene.
We wanna wear gloves and
we wanna wear booties.
We don't wanna leave extra
footprints and we don't wanna
leave extra fingerprints.
KIRBY: Ok.
CHARLIE: You guys ready to go?
REBECCA: You're a
little over dressed Charlie.
CHARLIE: What are
you talking about?
This is contamination
management right here.
Nothing on me's
getting in that scene.
REBECCA: It's just a bike
CHARLIE: Take the suit off?
REBECCA: Suit can come off.
CHARLIE: Better?
REBECCA: Much better.
CHARLIE: What's next?
REBECCA: OK we're going to
walk through the crime scene,
we're gonna take notes about
what we see, and we're gonna
look and see if there's
anything that was left behind
that does not belong here.
Well I'm gonna give Kirby the
clipboard and she can start
documenting any observation
that she sees.
While Kirby is recording
some observations we're
gonna take pictures.
KIRBY: Check it out!
Guys I found something!
CHARLIE: Sweet!
REBECCA: Whoa Charlie stop!
Remember what we said
about contamination.
CHARLIE: Yeah.
REBECCA: We gotta think
about the path that the
suspect took to
whatever evidence she found.
She would have taken the path
of least resistance, straight
towards the evidence.
So when we go in we're gonna
wanna stay on the outside
edge of the sidewalk.
Follow me.
KIRBY: So I was walking around
the perimeter of the crime and
I came upon this can.
REBECCA: I think
it's evidence.
We're gonna get some
photographs of it.
KIRBY: Excellent.
(camera shutter).
CHARLIE: Got it.
REBECCA: We're gonna
fingerprint the can now.
We're gonna use plain
black fingerprint powder.
And we're just
gently going to dust it.
And we're starting to see...
CHARLIE: Whoa!
REBECCA: Some
fingerprints develop.
CHARLIE: It just appeared!
KIRBY: Weird but True,
fingerprints are made
out of three things:
sweat, oil, and protein.
KIRBY: What's up next?
REBECCA: Let's look
for some footwear.
CHARLIE: Footwear, that's
CSI talk for footprints.
REBECCA: We're gonna use this
footwear light to look for
some footprints on the sidewalk.
I think I see
something right over here.
And we're gonna use a gel
lift to collect the footwear.
KIRBY: So what is a gel
lift and what does it do?
REBECCA: A gel lift is a
rectangular piece of material
that is really sticky.
And we're going to peel off
this plastic cover that's on
it.
KIRBY: This will help us
collect the footprint.
REBECCA: Exactly
KIRBY: Awesome.
REBECCA: So we're gonna lay
the gel lift down over the
footprint and smooth it out.
And we're gonna slowly peel it
back and see if we have a
footwear print.
CHARLIE: Ooooo.
KIRBY: Nice.
CHARLIE: Very nice.
REBECCA: And you can
see our footprint
KIRBY: Totally!
REBECCA: So we're gonna take
this footwear print, and we're
gonna seal it in a bag,
and we're gonna take it to the
crime lab, but you guys need
to start thinking about
suspects and why someone
would possibly steal your
bike, what their motive is.
And when you think about
that we'll see if they
have an alibi.
CHARLIE: OK suspects,
suspects...
KIRBY: Do you have
any enemies?
Do you owe anyone money?
CHARLIE: I owe Winnie like
five dollars, but I don't
think she can ride a bike.
KIRBY: I think we have to
think about this a bit more.
CHARLIE: I think you're right.
Alright guys we're gonna take
a quick break, but when we get
back we're gonna be ready to
go over some suspects.
We'll see you soon.
KIRBY: Weird but True, like
fingerprints, it's virtually
impossible for two people to
have the same
exact handwriting!
CHARLIE: Hey guys!
KIRBY: Welcome back!
CHARLIE: We've been
doing some thinking.
And we have two major suspects
who might have stolen my bike.
KIRBY: Suspect number one.
Our sister Casey.
CHARLIE: Casey was at the
house while I made myself an
ice cream cone.
She had just come from
outside with the packages.
That puts her near the
scene of the crime!!
KIRBY: Suspect number two,
Charlie's friend Patrick.
CHARLIE: The bike
ride was Patrick's idea.
When we stopped at our house
for ice cream he said he'd do
a loop around the block.
When I got back,
Patrick was gone...
and so was my bike!!
Noooo!!!
KIRBY: We talked to each of
the suspects to see if they
confess.
CHARLIE: I talked to Casey.
Hey Case, did you
take my bike?
CASEY: No.
CHARLIE: Ok thanks. Sorry.
KIRBY: And I
talked to Patrick.
Where's Charlie's bike?
PATRICK: I don't know!
KIRBY: Don't you
play dumb with me!!
PATRICK: I'm not lying!
KIRBY: What are you hiding?!
Yeah, he's not talking.
CHARLIE: Awwww, nuts.
KIRBY: But that's exactly
what a thief would do Charles!
CHARLIE: I guess
you're right Kirb.
We gotta let the
evidence do the talking here.
So what did Rebecca
take from the crime scene?
KIRBY: We got a finger
print and a footprint.
CHARLIE: Cool cool, let's
look into fingerprints a
bit more closely.
Our fingerprints form 3
months before we're even born.
And so many tiny factors
affect fingerprint formation;
like oxygen levels,
blood pressure, and even
the baby's nutrition levels.
According to scientists...
KIRBY: Over the entire course
of human existence, there's
virtually no chance that two
humans have ever had the
same fingerprint pattern!
Ever!!
Check out your hands.
You've got different
prints on all your fingers.
Weird but True, even
identical twins don't
have the same prints.
CHARLIE: What makes them so
unique are those patterns
of swirls and ridges,
there are three different
kinds that everybody has
on their fingers, even you.
Let's check 'em out.
The first type of
fingerprint is the loop.
They're fingerprints that
recurve back on themselves,
kind of like this.
65% of all
fingerprints are loops.
The next fingerprint
we have is the whorl.
Whorls are kinda like
tiny little whirlpools.
30% of all
fingerprints are whorls.
The final
fingerprint type is the arch.
Arches are kind of like tiny
little hills and they're super
rare.
Only 5% of all
fingerprints are arches.
So there you go, those
are your three different
kinds of fingerprints.
What do you have Kirb?
KIRBY: I've got two whorls, a
loop, and two more whorls,
what about you Charles?
CHARLIE: I've got a loop, a
whorl, another loop, another
whorl, and another loop.
So it's common knowledge
that everyone has unique
fingerprints.
But did you know that our
palms, toes, and feet are
also unique too?
Weird.
Cool, cool, so fingerprints
are one of the things that
forensic scientists can use to
solve crimes, but
they're not the only thing.
KIRBY: Remember, forensic
scientists are scientists
that use their knowledge
to solve crimes.
What if they're really
knowledgeable about teeth?
Or bugs?
All these people can
still be forensic scientists!
CHARLIE: Here
are some examples.
Forensic Superstar
number 1 Dr. Kemp, Dentist.
In 1954 a man robbed
a grocery store and paused
for a bite of cheese
on the way out.
The police asked the primary
suspect to bite into a piece
of cheese for comparison.
CHARLIE: Bite this cheese.
PATRICK: Okay.
CHARLIE: They took
both cheeses to Dr. Kemp.
Who measured the bites,
and determined that...
KIRBY: Both of these
cheeses were bit...
by the same person!
You're under arrest!
CHARLIE: Proving the suspect
was at the scene of the crime!
Forensic Superstar number 2
Lynn Kimsey, entomologist.
In 2004 Vincent Brothers
was accused of a serious
crime in California.
But he claimed he never
left the state of Ohio!
PATRICK: I haven't
even heard of California!
CHARLIE: Crime Scene
investigators didn't
believe him,
so they took the filter
and radiator from his
car to Lynn Kimsey.
Stuck in the radiator
and filter, she found
a grasshopper,
and a paper wasp, and two
bugs, and determined that...
KIRBY: These bugs
are from the west.
They're not from Ohio!
CHARLIE: Proving
that Vincent was lying!
So he was convicted.
Forensic superstar number 3
Patricia Wiltshire, Botanist.
Police were having
a tough time tying a
suspect to a crime scene.
So they called on
Patricia for help.
Can you help us out?
KIRBY: Sure.
CHARLIE: After looking
extremely close at every
detail of the evidence
she determined that...
KIRBY: The pollen located on
the suspect's shoe only comes
from a special plant located
at the scene of the crime!
CHARLIE: Proving he was there.
These people are incredible!
KIRBY: It's like
anything can be a clue.
CHARLIE: I wonder how
Rebecca's doing with the clues
she got from our crime scene.
(phone rings).
KIRBY: That's gotta be her!
CHARLIE: Rebecca?
REBECCA: Hey Charlie!
We're starting to
process your evidence.
CHARLIE: No way!
REBECCA: You're gonna
wanna come see this.
CHARLIE: Oh my gosh,
we'll be there in
like three minutes!
REBECCA: OK, see
you soon. Bye.
CHARLIE: Our
evidence is ready!
KIRBY: We gotta go to the lab!
CHARLIE: Ok guys, we're
gonna go meet Rebecca
at the forensics lab.
But, we'll see you
there after the break.
Sounds good?
Awesome.
We'll see you soon.
KIRBY: Weird but True,
children's fingerprints
disappear from surfaces
faster than adults' do!
CHARLIE: Hey
guys welcome back!
We just got here, we're at the
Illinois State Police Forensic
Science Center.
KIRBY: Rebecca asked us here
'cause she said she's ready to
process our evidence.
CHARLIE: Let's go find her!
Hey Rebecca!
REBECCA: Hey guys come on in.
CHARLIE: Whoa.
REBECCA: I'm gonna
introduce you to Mike.
CHARLIE: Hey Mike.
REBECCA: He is our latent
fingerprint examiner and
he's gonna be taking a
look at the can for us.
CHARLIE: Awesome.
KIRBY: Excellent.
MIKE: Hey guys
nice to meet you.
CHARLIE: Mike Cox, he's
an expert at examining
evidence for signs of prints
from feet and hands.
His favorite Weird but True
fact is, the first palm print
identification was made in
1917 at the scene of a
stagecoach robbery in Nevada!
MIKE: We're sorry to
hear about your bike.
We'll do what we can to help.
CHARLIE: Thanks.
MIKE: But first let's
get some lab coats on.
CHARLIE: OK.
MIKE: So what do we have?
Looks like we've got a can and
it looks like someone powdered
it for us already
and we can see.
KIRBY: Yeah we found a
big old fingerprint there.
MIKE: There's a couple
extra things that we
can do to the print to
help us visualize a
little bit better.
CHARLIE: That's awesome yeah.
MIKE: So the first thing we're
gonna do is called
Cyanoacrylate Fuming.
CHARLIE: Cyanoacrylate Fuming.
KIRBY: Got it.
CHARLIE: Oh got it.
KIRBY: Boom.
MIKE: That's just a fancy
word for super glue actually.
KIRBY: So what does
the superglue do to
the fingerprint?
MIKE: When it heats up,
Cyanoacrylate releases a
gas that adheres to the
fingerprint residue.
KIRBY: Whoa so it
helps us see it better?
MIKE: It will.
What we do to start the
process is we're gonna put it
into the tank.
Kirby if you wanna put about
ten drops into the plate for
me.
KIRBY: Yup.
1, 2... good?
MIKE: Put it
onto the hotplate.
So we're gonna put it
on about 10, 15 minutes,
put the lid on,
and we'll wait and see
what results we get.
CHARLIE: Weird but True,
forensic scientists, like
Mike,
can find prints on things
that have been under water.
(ringing of timer).
MIKE: Now in the right light
we'll be able to see it just a
little bit better.
KIRBY: Oh yeah.
CHARLIE: Yeah, no I
see something for sure.
KIRBY: I totally see it.
CHARLIE: There's definitely
some stuff in there.
KIRBY: I think it's a whorl.
CHARLIE: I'm
calling it a whorl too.
We got a whorl thumb print.
MIKE: I would agree.
CHARLIE: The person
who stole my bike has
a whorl thumb print.
KIRBY: So what do we do
with this fingerprint?
MIKE: If we had a suspect we
could compare it to them...
KIRBY: Mhmm.
MIKE: Otherwise we can take
the information and put it
into a database and see if
that person had
committed any previous crimes.
CHARLIE: Ahh.
KIRBY: Cool.
MIKE: And see if they
pop up in the database.
CHARLIE: Alright what's next?
MIKE: All we have to do is
turn the lights off so we can
see it under there.
CHARLIE: Got it. Ohhh.
MIKE: And see what we have.
CHARLIE: That's great,
looks like we got two.
KIRBY: And it's super detailed.
(camera shutter).
CHARLIE: Kirb I can't believe
we're looking at the actual
fingerprint from the person
who stole my bike.
Ok... I... think we got it.
So we should take this back
home and compare with our
suspects right?
MIKE: That's right.
CHARLIE: We also took a
footprint away from the scene.
MIKE: You should be talking to
Bill and Rebecca and they're
in the next room.
CHARLIE: Alright Mike, that's
so much for helping us out.
MIKE: Good luck guys.
KIRBY: Thanks so much.
See you later.
CHARLIE: I'll take
this fingerprint.
MIKE: Nice meeting you.
CHARLIE: See you later.
Bill Demuth, forensic footwear
examiner, he specializes in
finding unique clues in
footprints that can be
used to help solve crimes.
His favorite Weird but True
fact is, positive
identification of a
suspect's shoeprint can be
made with as little as one
random characteristic!
Where do we start?
BILL: Well we'll
start with the gel lift.
The first thing we're gonna do
is we're gonna image this, and
we always wanna make sure we
shoot these with a
scale in the image.
And in order for you to
compare this to an actual shoe
you have to make sure that
it's the same size
as the shoe was.
CHARLIE: Do you see
anything initially?
BILL: It looks like
it marked very well.
So right off the bat you might
be able to tell brand and you
might be able to tell size.
CHARLIE: That's awesome.
KIRBY: Whoa.
BILL: The next step
is we're going to
grab our image.
(camera shutter).
I think we've got it.
CHARLIE: Awesome.
BILL: OK so what we've got on
the screen is the original
image and what I've done is
I've adjusted the
contrast a little bit.
This is the, kind of, clean
version of that gel site.
CHARLIE: That's perfect.
REBECCA: Hey guys
what'd you find out?
CHARLIE: Oh we got an
awesome footprint from Bill.
KIRBY: And some photos
of the fingerprints.
REBECCA: Now you've
got some suspects.
CHARLIE: Mhmm.
REBECCA: So you're gonna take
your fingerprint and your
footprint home and you're
gonna compare those
to your suspects.
CHARLIE: Perfect. Time to
crack the case I guess.
REBECCA: I think so.
CHARLIE: Thank you guys
so much for your help.
KIRBY: Thank you so
much for your help.
CHARLIE: We
really appreciate it.
BILL: Good luck.
CHARLIE: See ya.
KIRBY: See ya later.
Weird but True, perspiration
level is one of the reactions
measured in a lie detector test!
CHARLIE: So we've been going
over our evidence and we just
found the weirdest thing.
KIRBY: So we got a piece of
mail from both our suspects,
Casey and Patrick,
to collect their thumbprint.
CHARLIE: So we can compare
them with the print we got
from the can at the crime scene.
KIRBY: And guys
we got a match.
CHARLIE: But here's the thing.
We found three sets of prints.
One on Casey's
piece of mail, an arch.
Another a little whorl on
Patrick's piece of mail.
And a third that we found on
both their pieces of mail, a
big whorl.
KIRBY: And that's the one that
matches the print on the can
from the crime scene!
CHARLIE: But here's the thing,
whose print could this be?
KIRBY: Oh my gosh!
CHARLIE: What?
KIRBY: I figured it out!
CHARLIE: Who did it?
(doorbell).
KIRBY: Bob!
CHARLIE: Bob?
Our mailman?
KIRBY: Yeah think about it.
Whose print would be on
both pieces of mail?!?
The mailman's! Bob's.
When you got your ice cream
you ran into Casey carrying
boxes of craft supplies.
That Bob had just delivered!
CHARLIE: I...I
don't know Kirb.
I don't really see
the connection here.
Like where does my
bike fit into it?
What about that footprint?
And then where did Patrick go?
KIRBY: Alright,
check this out...
Bob needs to deliver
packages of craft supplies
to our front door.
But your bike is in the way.
He moves it to make
room for his delivery.
And leaves his
can of soda behind.
Along with his footprints!
Patrick comes back from
his loop, sees that your
bike isn't there.
So he suspects you
left to go find him
and he heads back out.
CHARLIE: So my
bike wasn't stolen?
Bob just moved it?
KIRBY: Yup.
CHARLIE: We found it!
I was so worried about you!
KIRBY: Another case solved.
CHARLIE: I thought
I lost you forever.
KIRBY: Charles,
it's just a bike.
CHARLIE: This is amazing, we
learned so much today about
solving crimes.
What else did we learn today,
there were so many Weird but
True things!
KIRBY: Every one of your
fingers has a different print
pattern.
And no two humans have ever
had matching fingerprints.
Palms of hands, feet,
and toes also have
unique print patterns.
CHARLIE: Combining super glue,
heat, and humidity in a fish
tank for 15 minutes can make a
fingerprint stand
out on an object.
Kirb, can you help me
unload these craft supplies?
KIRBY: For sure.
There's so much stuff in here.
It's gone!
CHARLIE: Another crime!!!
KIRBY: Don't worry, I
know exactly what to do.
This is a job for.
Detective Kirby!
It was a dark and stormy night.
In a city filled with secrets.
CHARLIE: Alright guys it looks
like we've got another project
on our hands.
KIRBY: The room was
crafty, too crafty.
CHARLIE: But thanks so
much for stopping by.
KIRBY: Time crawled by like
a maimed sloth in molasses.
CHARLIE: Come by again when
we discover more things
that are Weird but True.
KIRBY: Too true.
CHARLIE: We'll see you soon!

Charlie here!
Lot's going on today.
We got a classic
3-45 on our hands.
Petty theft
occurred this morning.
Suspects, few.
Motive, uncertain.
Donut uhhh...
chocolate.
But don't worry about
it because we got our
investigators on the scene.
KIRBY: Found a thumb print!
CHARLIE: Throw it in
with the rest of 'em.
It's time for Weird but True!
(theme music plays).
Dark mysteries.
Weird facts.
One woman hopes to
unravel them all.
KIRBY: It was a chilly day.
Too chilly.
The kind of chill that
would make a popsicle shiver.
When that very un-chill
man barged into my office.
CHARLIE: Detective Kirby?!?!
KIRBY: That's the name.
Who's askin'?
CHARLIE: Kirb, it's Charlie.
KIRBY: What seems to be
the problem, Charles?
CHARLIE: Kirbs, it's horrible!
Ahh I'd just gotten back from
a bike ride with my friend
Patrick.
Ahh...
I'm gonna go get
some ice cream.
PATRICK: Cool.
I'm gonna circle the block.
CHARLIE: Alright.
I ran inside for one minute
and by the time I came back,
my bike was gone!
Nooo!!
It was stolen!
You gotta help me out!
KIRBY: Who's this Patrick kid?
One of Charlie's goons?
Why ice cream?
It's like ten degrees outside.
Like a broken calculator,
this story just didn't add up.
And that's when I realized...
Charles, I don't know
anything about solving crime.
CHARLIE: Really?
Me neither.
KIRBY: Huh.
CHARLIE: I guess that's what
we're doing today, unraveling
the world of...
KIRBY: Forensic Science!
CHARLIE: Forensic Science!
Hey guys, we're
just waiting for...
BOB: Package!
CHARLIE: Perfect.
BOB: Sign here.
KIRBY: Thanks Bob!
CHARLIE: We got
a great mailman.
KIRBY: So, forensics science.
CHARLIE: Forensic science.
Alright real talk guys,
my bike was stolen and I
have absolutely no idea
what happened to it.
KIRBY: Bummer.
CHARLIE: So, we ordered this
book to help us learn how
crimes like this are handled.
Let's check it out.
Sooo...
Let's say your
favorite plant is stolen.
KIRBY: It's gone!
CHARLIE: The first thing
you do is call the police.
(phone rings).
CHARLIE: What's up?
KIRBY: My favorite
plant was stolen.
CHARLIE: We'll be
there in two seconds!
The first person to arrive
at the crime scene is a
police officer.
The officer establishes a
border and makes sure the area
is preserved for evidence.
The next person on
location is a CSI aka
crime scene investigator.
They're the ones that
carefully find and collect
evidence that can be
analyzed for forensic clues:
an artichoke, a small wedge
of cheese,
a large wedge of cheese,
anything that might help
solve the case.
Once they finish
examining the scene they
take their findings to...
our third expert, the
forensic scientist.
They're basically
smart scientists that
use their scientific
knowledge to solve crimes.
Such as analyzing DNA
or testing fingerprints.
He did it!
PATRICK: What!?!?
CHARLIE: Cool, cool.
So forensic scientists are the
ones that are actually working
with the evidence to find clues.
KIRBY: And they can find
clues in the weirdest ways.
CHARLIE: Check it out,
these are all true stories...
KIRBY: What a life,
being a Forensic Scientist.
CHARLIE: Oh it's, it's crazy.
KIRBY: Crazy.
CHARLIE: I tell you about the
guys we uh nabbed last week?
KIRBY: Who?
CHARLIE: The Fried
Chicken Burglar?
So this guy he's
robbing a house, right?
PATRICK: Ohh!
CHARLIE: Gets hungry,
eats some fried chicken,
sips some OJ, and books it.
This guy's hand was so
greasy from the chicken,
he left fingerprints all
over the bottle of OJ.
So we ID'd this guy based
off his greasy fried chicken
fingerprints.
KIRBY: Crazy!
Did I tell you about the
guy we locked up on Tuesday?
The Sticky
Fingered Selfie Snatcher.
So this guy, he steals
a lady's phone, right?
(evil laughter).
Starts taking selfies with
it, like a model or something.
Our boys hack into the phone's
cloud storage and get one of
these selfies.
Posted it around the area...
CHARLIE: Excuse me.
KIRBY: And boom the
guy's turned-in.
CHARLIE: You're under arrest!
PATRICK: No!
KIRBY: His selfies
helped us catch him.
CHARLIE: Did I tell you
about the group we nabbed
on Friday, though?
The Litter Bug Bandit?
So these kids, right?
They're stealing some snacks
from a gas station, like
some hot shot felons.
Ditch the scene
in a getaway car.
Munching on the snacks,
and tossing the wrappers
out the window.
So I got one of our
police dogs, followed
the trail of litter,
and found the crooks.
HEY!
So these guys, their
litter helped us catch 'em.
KIRBY: It's a crazy job.
CHARLIE: Crazy.
PATRICK: More coffee?
CHARLIE: We're good, thanks.
KIRBY: Alright, so we got
a crime scene right now.
Who do we need to call?
CHARLIE: We need a
crime scene investigator.
KIRBY: Exactly, and guys, we
found the perfect lady to call
CHARLIE: Rebecca Hooks,
she's a Crime Scene
Investigator with the Illinois
State Police department.
Giving her a call right now.
(phone rings).
REBECCA: Crime Scene Services.
CHARLIE: My bike
just got stolen!
REBECCA: That's terrible!
CHARLIE: Can you help us out?
REBECCA: I'll be
there in five seconds.
(doorbell rings).
CHARLIE: She's here!
KIRBY: I'll get it!
Sargent Rebecca Hooks, she's
an expert on evidence
gathering and processing.
Rebecca's favorite Weird
but True fact is, that
fingerprints can last up to
40 years on paper!
CHARLIE: Hey
Rebecca, how's it going?
REBECCA: Fine how
are you Charlie?
CHARLIE: I'm really glad
you're here 'cause this is
what you do right?
REBECCA: This is
what I do everyday.
CHARLIE: Awesome so
where do we start?
REBECCA: So we got
a camera kit.
KIRBY: Awesome.
REBECCA: Crime scene tape...
KIRBY: Very cool.
CHARLIE: Ok
REBECCA: These are gel lifts.
We're gonna use these to
collect any footwear we might
find.
Fingerprint kit, and a
fancy footwear light.
CHARLIE: Ready to go?
REBECCA: We're ready.
CHARLIE: Alright this is
where it all happened.
We started biking up here, I
went inside that door, came
out with some ice cream,
I left my bike right here,
and when we came out, gone.
REBECCA: Ok. Stop right there.
I'm gonna have you back up
because you're walking in the
crime scene and we're going to
put up some crime scene
tape to prevent any
further contamination.
CHARLIE: Let's do it!
Alright guys, first step,
you gotta rope off the
crime scene.
You gotta make it a little
bigger than the spot where it
just happened 'cause you never
know where you're
gonna find evidence.
You gotta make sure that
nobody comes in and
contaminates your area.
REBECCA: Ok next step,
we're going inside to
look for evidence,
but we're gonna wanna make
sure that we don't contaminate
the scene.
We wanna wear gloves and
we wanna wear booties.
We don't wanna leave extra
footprints and we don't wanna
leave extra fingerprints.
KIRBY: Ok.
CHARLIE: You guys ready to go?
REBECCA: You're a
little over dressed Charlie.
CHARLIE: What are
you talking about?
This is contamination
management right here.
Nothing on me's
getting in that scene.
REBECCA: It's just a bike
CHARLIE: Take the suit off?
REBECCA: Suit can come off.
CHARLIE: Better?
REBECCA: Much better.
CHARLIE: What's next?
REBECCA: OK we're going to
walk through the crime scene,
we're gonna take notes about
what we see, and we're gonna
look and see if there's
anything that was left behind
that does not belong here.
Well I'm gonna give Kirby the
clipboard and she can start
documenting any observation
that she sees.
While Kirby is recording
some observations we're
gonna take pictures.
KIRBY: Check it out!
Guys I found something!
CHARLIE: Sweet!
REBECCA: Whoa Charlie stop!
Remember what we said
about contamination.
CHARLIE: Yeah.
REBECCA: We gotta think
about the path that the
suspect took to
whatever evidence she found.
She would have taken the path
of least resistance, straight
towards the evidence.
So when we go in we're gonna
wanna stay on the outside
edge of the sidewalk.
Follow me.
KIRBY: So I was walking around
the perimeter of the crime and
I came upon this can.
REBECCA: I think
it's evidence.
We're gonna get some
photographs of it.
KIRBY: Excellent.
(camera shutter).
CHARLIE: Got it.
REBECCA: We're gonna
fingerprint the can now.
We're gonna use plain
black fingerprint powder.
And we're just
gently going to dust it.
And we're starting to see...
CHARLIE: Whoa!
REBECCA: Some
fingerprints develop.
CHARLIE: It just appeared!
KIRBY: Weird but True,
fingerprints are made
out of three things:
sweat, oil, and protein.
KIRBY: What's up next?
REBECCA: Let's look
for some footwear.
CHARLIE: Footwear, that's
CSI talk for footprints.
REBECCA: We're gonna use this
footwear light to look for
some footprints on the sidewalk.
I think I see
something right over here.
And we're gonna use a gel
lift to collect the footwear.
KIRBY: So what is a gel
lift and what does it do?
REBECCA: A gel lift is a
rectangular piece of material
that is really sticky.
And we're going to peel off
this plastic cover that's on
it.
KIRBY: This will help us
collect the footprint.
REBECCA: Exactly
KIRBY: Awesome.
REBECCA: So we're gonna lay
the gel lift down over the
footprint and smooth it out.
And we're gonna slowly peel it
back and see if we have a
footwear print.
CHARLIE: Ooooo.
KIRBY: Nice.
CHARLIE: Very nice.
REBECCA: And you can
see our footprint
KIRBY: Totally!
REBECCA: So we're gonna take
this footwear print, and we're
gonna seal it in a bag,
and we're gonna take it to the
crime lab, but you guys need
to start thinking about
suspects and why someone
would possibly steal your
bike, what their motive is.
And when you think about
that we'll see if they
have an alibi.
CHARLIE: OK suspects,
suspects...
KIRBY: Do you have
any enemies?
Do you owe anyone money?
CHARLIE: I owe Winnie like
five dollars, but I don't
think she can ride a bike.
KIRBY: I think we have to
think about this a bit more.
CHARLIE: I think you're right.
Alright guys we're gonna take
a quick break, but when we get
back we're gonna be ready to
go over some suspects.
We'll see you soon.
KIRBY: Weird but True, like
fingerprints, it's virtually
impossible for two people to
have the same
exact handwriting!
CHARLIE: Hey guys!
KIRBY: Welcome back!
CHARLIE: We've been
doing some thinking.
And we have two major suspects
who might have stolen my bike.
KIRBY: Suspect number one.
Our sister Casey.
CHARLIE: Casey was at the
house while I made myself an
ice cream cone.
She had just come from
outside with the packages.
That puts her near the
scene of the crime!!
KIRBY: Suspect number two,
Charlie's friend Patrick.
CHARLIE: The bike
ride was Patrick's idea.
When we stopped at our house
for ice cream he said he'd do
a loop around the block.
When I got back,
Patrick was gone...
and so was my bike!!
Noooo!!!
KIRBY: We talked to each of
the suspects to see if they
confess.
CHARLIE: I talked to Casey.
Hey Case, did you
take my bike?
CASEY: No.
CHARLIE: Ok thanks. Sorry.
KIRBY: And I
talked to Patrick.
Where's Charlie's bike?
PATRICK: I don't know!
KIRBY: Don't you
play dumb with me!!
PATRICK: I'm not lying!
KIRBY: What are you hiding?!
Yeah, he's not talking.
CHARLIE: Awwww, nuts.
KIRBY: But that's exactly
what a thief would do Charles!
CHARLIE: I guess
you're right Kirb.
We gotta let the
evidence do the talking here.
So what did Rebecca
take from the crime scene?
KIRBY: We got a finger
print and a footprint.
CHARLIE: Cool cool, let's
look into fingerprints a
bit more closely.
Our fingerprints form 3
months before we're even born.
And so many tiny factors
affect fingerprint formation;
like oxygen levels,
blood pressure, and even
the baby's nutrition levels.
According to scientists...
KIRBY: Over the entire course
of human existence, there's
virtually no chance that two
humans have ever had the
same fingerprint pattern!
Ever!!
Check out your hands.
You've got different
prints on all your fingers.
Weird but True, even
identical twins don't
have the same prints.
CHARLIE: What makes them so
unique are those patterns
of swirls and ridges,
there are three different
kinds that everybody has
on their fingers, even you.
Let's check 'em out.
The first type of
fingerprint is the loop.
They're fingerprints that
recurve back on themselves,
kind of like this.
65% of all
fingerprints are loops.
The next fingerprint
we have is the whorl.
Whorls are kinda like
tiny little whirlpools.
30% of all
fingerprints are whorls.
The final
fingerprint type is the arch.
Arches are kind of like tiny
little hills and they're super
rare.
Only 5% of all
fingerprints are arches.
So there you go, those
are your three different
kinds of fingerprints.
What do you have Kirb?
KIRBY: I've got two whorls, a
loop, and two more whorls,
what about you Charles?
CHARLIE: I've got a loop, a
whorl, another loop, another
whorl, and another loop.
So it's common knowledge
that everyone has unique
fingerprints.
But did you know that our
palms, toes, and feet are
also unique too?
Weird.
Cool, cool, so fingerprints
are one of the things that
forensic scientists can use to
solve crimes, but
they're not the only thing.
KIRBY: Remember, forensic
scientists are scientists
that use their knowledge
to solve crimes.
What if they're really
knowledgeable about teeth?
Or bugs?
All these people can
still be forensic scientists!
CHARLIE: Here
are some examples.
Forensic Superstar
number 1 Dr. Kemp, Dentist.
In 1954 a man robbed
a grocery store and paused
for a bite of cheese
on the way out.
The police asked the primary
suspect to bite into a piece
of cheese for comparison.
CHARLIE: Bite this cheese.
PATRICK: Okay.
CHARLIE: They took
both cheeses to Dr. Kemp.
Who measured the bites,
and determined that...
KIRBY: Both of these
cheeses were bit...
by the same person!
You're under arrest!
CHARLIE: Proving the suspect
was at the scene of the crime!
Forensic Superstar number 2
Lynn Kimsey, entomologist.
In 2004 Vincent Brothers
was accused of a serious
crime in California.
But he claimed he never
left the state of Ohio!
PATRICK: I haven't
even heard of California!
CHARLIE: Crime Scene
investigators didn't
believe him,
so they took the filter
and radiator from his
car to Lynn Kimsey.
Stuck in the radiator
and filter, she found
a grasshopper,
and a paper wasp, and two
bugs, and determined that...
KIRBY: These bugs
are from the west.
They're not from Ohio!
CHARLIE: Proving
that Vincent was lying!
So he was convicted.
Forensic superstar number 3
Patricia Wiltshire, Botanist.
Police were having
a tough time tying a
suspect to a crime scene.
So they called on
Patricia for help.
Can you help us out?
KIRBY: Sure.
CHARLIE: After looking
extremely close at every
detail of the evidence
she determined that...
KIRBY: The pollen located on
the suspect's shoe only comes
from a special plant located
at the scene of the crime!
CHARLIE: Proving he was there.
These people are incredible!
KIRBY: It's like
anything can be a clue.
CHARLIE: I wonder how
Rebecca's doing with the clues
she got from our crime scene.
(phone rings).
KIRBY: That's gotta be her!
CHARLIE: Rebecca?
REBECCA: Hey Charlie!
We're starting to
process your evidence.
CHARLIE: No way!
REBECCA: You're gonna
wanna come see this.
CHARLIE: Oh my gosh,
we'll be there in
like three minutes!
REBECCA: OK, see
you soon. Bye.
CHARLIE: Our
evidence is ready!
KIRBY: We gotta go to the lab!
CHARLIE: Ok guys, we're
gonna go meet Rebecca
at the forensics lab.
But, we'll see you
there after the break.
Sounds good?
Awesome.
We'll see you soon.
KIRBY: Weird but True,
children's fingerprints
disappear from surfaces
faster than adults' do!
CHARLIE: Hey
guys welcome back!
We just got here, we're at the
Illinois State Police Forensic
Science Center.
KIRBY: Rebecca asked us here
'cause she said she's ready to
process our evidence.
CHARLIE: Let's go find her!
Hey Rebecca!
REBECCA: Hey guys come on in.
CHARLIE: Whoa.
REBECCA: I'm gonna
introduce you to Mike.
CHARLIE: Hey Mike.
REBECCA: He is our latent
fingerprint examiner and
he's gonna be taking a
look at the can for us.
CHARLIE: Awesome.
KIRBY: Excellent.
MIKE: Hey guys
nice to meet you.
CHARLIE: Mike Cox, he's
an expert at examining
evidence for signs of prints
from feet and hands.
His favorite Weird but True
fact is, the first palm print
identification was made in
1917 at the scene of a
stagecoach robbery in Nevada!
MIKE: We're sorry to
hear about your bike.
We'll do what we can to help.
CHARLIE: Thanks.
MIKE: But first let's
get some lab coats on.
CHARLIE: OK.
MIKE: So what do we have?
Looks like we've got a can and
it looks like someone powdered
it for us already
and we can see.
KIRBY: Yeah we found a
big old fingerprint there.
MIKE: There's a couple
extra things that we
can do to the print to
help us visualize a
little bit better.
CHARLIE: That's awesome yeah.
MIKE: So the first thing we're
gonna do is called
Cyanoacrylate Fuming.
CHARLIE: Cyanoacrylate Fuming.
KIRBY: Got it.
CHARLIE: Oh got it.
KIRBY: Boom.
MIKE: That's just a fancy
word for super glue actually.
KIRBY: So what does
the superglue do to
the fingerprint?
MIKE: When it heats up,
Cyanoacrylate releases a
gas that adheres to the
fingerprint residue.
KIRBY: Whoa so it
helps us see it better?
MIKE: It will.
What we do to start the
process is we're gonna put it
into the tank.
Kirby if you wanna put about
ten drops into the plate for
me.
KIRBY: Yup.
1, 2... good?
MIKE: Put it
onto the hotplate.
So we're gonna put it
on about 10, 15 minutes,
put the lid on,
and we'll wait and see
what results we get.
CHARLIE: Weird but True,
forensic scientists, like
Mike,
can find prints on things
that have been under water.
(ringing of timer).
MIKE: Now in the right light
we'll be able to see it just a
little bit better.
KIRBY: Oh yeah.
CHARLIE: Yeah, no I
see something for sure.
KIRBY: I totally see it.
CHARLIE: There's definitely
some stuff in there.
KIRBY: I think it's a whorl.
CHARLIE: I'm
calling it a whorl too.
We got a whorl thumb print.
MIKE: I would agree.
CHARLIE: The person
who stole my bike has
a whorl thumb print.
KIRBY: So what do we do
with this fingerprint?
MIKE: If we had a suspect we
could compare it to them...
KIRBY: Mhmm.
MIKE: Otherwise we can take
the information and put it
into a database and see if
that person had
committed any previous crimes.
CHARLIE: Ahh.
KIRBY: Cool.
MIKE: And see if they
pop up in the database.
CHARLIE: Alright what's next?
MIKE: All we have to do is
turn the lights off so we can
see it under there.
CHARLIE: Got it. Ohhh.
MIKE: And see what we have.
CHARLIE: That's great,
looks like we got two.
KIRBY: And it's super detailed.
(camera shutter).
CHARLIE: Kirb I can't believe
we're looking at the actual
fingerprint from the person
who stole my bike.
Ok... I... think we got it.
So we should take this back
home and compare with our
suspects right?
MIKE: That's right.
CHARLIE: We also took a
footprint away from the scene.
MIKE: You should be talking to
Bill and Rebecca and they're
in the next room.
CHARLIE: Alright Mike, that's
so much for helping us out.
MIKE: Good luck guys.
KIRBY: Thanks so much.
See you later.
CHARLIE: I'll take
this fingerprint.
MIKE: Nice meeting you.
CHARLIE: See you later.
Bill Demuth, forensic footwear
examiner, he specializes in
finding unique clues in
footprints that can be
used to help solve crimes.
His favorite Weird but True
fact is, positive
identification of a
suspect's shoeprint can be
made with as little as one
random characteristic!
Where do we start?
BILL: Well we'll
start with the gel lift.
The first thing we're gonna do
is we're gonna image this, and
we always wanna make sure we
shoot these with a
scale in the image.
And in order for you to
compare this to an actual shoe
you have to make sure that
it's the same size
as the shoe was.
CHARLIE: Do you see
anything initially?
BILL: It looks like
it marked very well.
So right off the bat you might
be able to tell brand and you
might be able to tell size.
CHARLIE: That's awesome.
KIRBY: Whoa.
BILL: The next step
is we're going to
grab our image.
(camera shutter).
I think we've got it.
CHARLIE: Awesome.
BILL: OK so what we've got on
the screen is the original
image and what I've done is
I've adjusted the
contrast a little bit.
This is the, kind of, clean
version of that gel site.
CHARLIE: That's perfect.
REBECCA: Hey guys
what'd you find out?
CHARLIE: Oh we got an
awesome footprint from Bill.
KIRBY: And some photos
of the fingerprints.
REBECCA: Now you've
got some suspects.
CHARLIE: Mhmm.
REBECCA: So you're gonna take
your fingerprint and your
footprint home and you're
gonna compare those
to your suspects.
CHARLIE: Perfect. Time to
crack the case I guess.
REBECCA: I think so.
CHARLIE: Thank you guys
so much for your help.
KIRBY: Thank you so
much for your help.
CHARLIE: We
really appreciate it.
BILL: Good luck.
CHARLIE: See ya.
KIRBY: See ya later.
Weird but True, perspiration
level is one of the reactions
measured in a lie detector test!
CHARLIE: So we've been going
over our evidence and we just
found the weirdest thing.
KIRBY: So we got a piece of
mail from both our suspects,
Casey and Patrick,
to collect their thumbprint.
CHARLIE: So we can compare
them with the print we got
from the can at the crime scene.
KIRBY: And guys
we got a match.
CHARLIE: But here's the thing.
We found three sets of prints.
One on Casey's
piece of mail, an arch.
Another a little whorl on
Patrick's piece of mail.
And a third that we found on
both their pieces of mail, a
big whorl.
KIRBY: And that's the one that
matches the print on the can
from the crime scene!
CHARLIE: But here's the thing,
whose print could this be?
KIRBY: Oh my gosh!
CHARLIE: What?
KIRBY: I figured it out!
CHARLIE: Who did it?
(doorbell).
KIRBY: Bob!
CHARLIE: Bob?
Our mailman?
KIRBY: Yeah think about it.
Whose print would be on
both pieces of mail?!?
The mailman's! Bob's.
When you got your ice cream
you ran into Casey carrying
boxes of craft supplies.
That Bob had just delivered!
CHARLIE: I...I
don't know Kirb.
I don't really see
the connection here.
Like where does my
bike fit into it?
What about that footprint?
And then where did Patrick go?
KIRBY: Alright,
check this out...
Bob needs to deliver
packages of craft supplies
to our front door.
But your bike is in the way.
He moves it to make
room for his delivery.
And leaves his
can of soda behind.
Along with his footprints!
Patrick comes back from
his loop, sees that your
bike isn't there.
So he suspects you
left to go find him
and he heads back out.
CHARLIE: So my
bike wasn't stolen?
Bob just moved it?
KIRBY: Yup.
CHARLIE: We found it!
I was so worried about you!
KIRBY: Another case solved.
CHARLIE: I thought
I lost you forever.
KIRBY: Charles,
it's just a bike.
CHARLIE: This is amazing, we
learned so much today about
solving crimes.
What else did we learn today,
there were so many Weird but
True things!
KIRBY: Every one of your
fingers has a different print
pattern.
And no two humans have ever
had matching fingerprints.
Palms of hands, feet,
and toes also have
unique print patterns.
CHARLIE: Combining super glue,
heat, and humidity in a fish
tank for 15 minutes can make a
fingerprint stand
out on an object.
Kirb, can you help me
unload these craft supplies?
KIRBY: For sure.
There's so much stuff in here.
It's gone!
CHARLIE: Another crime!!!
KIRBY: Don't worry, I
know exactly what to do.
This is a job for.
Detective Kirby!
It was a dark and stormy night.
In a city filled with secrets.
CHARLIE: Alright guys it looks
like we've got another project
on our hands.
KIRBY: The room was
crafty, too crafty.
CHARLIE: But thanks so
much for stopping by.
KIRBY: Time crawled by like
a maimed sloth in molasses.
CHARLIE: Come by again when
we discover more things
that are Weird but True.
KIRBY: Too true.
CHARLIE: We'll see you soon!
