Swamped with Danger
Lieutenant Mumbly was sure that he apprehended the bank robber, Sally Swampwater, and he notified Chief Shnooker of the arrest. They found out that the swindler has a pet alligator named Ally, who helped her escape.
Mumbly: *mumbles* We've got to catch her.
Shnooker: Yeah, but how? In case you haven't noticed, she has a giant pet alligator.
Mumbly: *mumbles unintelligibly*
Shnooker: You have a plan?
Mumbly: Yup.
He goes to his beat-up car and takes a motor out of the trunk. He then attaches the motor to the back of the car.
Mumbly: *mumbles* I can use my car as a motorboat.
Shnooker: It'll never work.
The dog detective turns on the motor and it works.
Mumbly: *mumbles unintelligibly*
Shnooker: And you think I like to brag?
Mumbly jumps in his new "motorboat" and pursues the thief and the alligator.
Shnooker: Remember, Mumbly, if you don't arrest her-
Mumbly: *mumbles* I'll have to turn in my badge.
Shnooker: Uh, yeah. How did you guess?
The alligator is swimming in the murky river.
Sally Swampwater: This is great, Ally! The detectives will never catch us now.
Ally Gator: *nods*
A motorboat drives past them.
Sally: It's just a tourist or something.
The boat slows down so it is right next to them, and they see the driver.
Mumbly: *laughs*
Sally: You again! I can't seem to get away from you varmint.
They attempt to escape from the detective by swimming at an increased speed, but he continues his pursuit. Suddenly, there is a violent thunderstorm.
Mumbly: *mumbles* We should probably get out of the water.
Sally: Why would I do something stupid like that? You would probably arrest me.
Mumbly: *mumbles* If we don't, we could get zapped by lightning.
Ally Gator: He has a good point.
Sally: Fine, we'll continue the chase from there.
They attempt to head for dry land. However, before Mumbly's boat reaches the shore, the alligator bites the motor off of his boat. It then starts to sink.
Sally: Haha, you'll never get me now!
Mumbly: *growls*
