When we last left the trio, they went to the waterfront where during their time at the Rat Trap, Kairi found a trap door leading her, Basil and Dawson into the sewers. Hearing Fidget's singing they creep behind. Fidget with lantern in hand made his way into the pipe. The trio immediately climbs up

"It's pitch black in here."

"Great Scott. I can't see a thing."

"Shh." Basil shushed them "Stick together and follow along." they proceeded climbing until Dawson strayed off "No, no, no, not that way. Dawson look out for your-"

Dawson walked right into a sealed cap "Oww! Confound it!"

"Basil, are you sure you know where we're going?" Kairi asked

"But of course."

After navigating through some twist and turns they came to the drain grate. Basil lifts it up to discover a gigantic barrel in a wine cellar set up as a hideout. It was indeed what he always wanted to find

"Ah-ha! We found it my companions! Ratigan's secret lair!"

Basil climbs out and holds the grate open for Kairi and Dawson to come out.

"And it's filthier than I imagined" Basil commented as they slowly creep over to the entrance.

"Guys the bottle" Kairi pointed out a green wine bottle which contained Olivia apparently asleep as she curled up with her back to them

They carefully sneak over to the bottle. Basil jumps on the neck of the bottle and begins to pull at the cork

"Olivia" Dawson whispers as he tapped on the glass

"We came to rescue you. Where's your father?" Kairi asked

It turns out that it was Fidget in Olivia's clothing as he turned around with a sinister smile and makes a kissy face

"Surprise!"

Basil drops to the ground as a large banner that reads 'Welcome Basil' unfurls form the ceiling. All of Ratigan's thugs come out clapping and cheering mockingly at the trio as balloons and confetti are released. At the doorway is the criminal mastermind himself applauding

"Bravo! Bravo! A marvelous performance." he chuckled as he pulled out his pocket watch "Though frankly, I expected you fifteen minutes earlier. Trouble with the chemistry set old boy?" he asked mockingly

All the while Basil was glaring at his archenemy with hatred and had stiffened at the insult. "Ratigan…no one can have a higher opinion of you than I have" he spoke in an almost friendly tone before erasing it "And I think you're a slimy contemptible sewer rat!"

Ratigan maintains his smile as he shuts his pocket watch and puts it away "By the way, Basil, I just love your disguise." he chuckled as he rips off Basil's mustache causing the latter slight pain and his cohorts to laugh as he inspected the hat "Really one would hardly recognize you. The greatest…." he nudges Basil and starts to laugh and lean over him "detective in all Mousedom!"

Kairi was glaring angrily at Ratigan as he insulted the detective. She could see that Basil was seething

"Ratigan, so help me…I'll see you behind bars yet!"

"You fool! Isn't it clear to you?" he lifts Basil by the collar demonstrating his strength "The superior mind has triumphed!" he dropped Basil as he smiled "I've won!"

Ratigan laughs evilly as Fidget and the rest of his thugs join in jeering the detective. Kairi was indeed at her boiling point of anger

"Don't listen to them Basil! It's not over! Right?" she got no response "Basil? Basil! Basil, what's wrong with you?" she shook the detective who said nothing. He simply slumped as he felt his spirit broken. Kairi sadly stared at him; Dawson is also concerned but does not know what to do. Basil hung his head as Ratigan celebrates in glee

Moments later, the trio was tied to a mousetrap as the thugs set up the trap. Ratigan looks over them with a smile

"You don't know what a delightful dilemma it was trying to decide on the most appropriate method for your demise. Oh I had so many ingenious ideas I didn't know which to choose. So, I decided….to use them all."

He gave a grand gesture revealing all the traps combined to make one huge death trap: a gun, crossbow, axe and an anvil. All of them were aimed directly at the mousetrap.

"Marvelous isn't it? Oh ho…But here, let me show you how it works. Picture this: first a tune I've recorded especially for you." Fidget bowed to the record player and sets it as Ratigan explains "As the song plays the cord tightens, and when the song ends, the metal ball is released. Rolling along its merry way until…" Ratigan demonstrated the effects of the first three weapons "Snap! Boom! Twang! Thunk!" he paused "Splat!" which would be the end result as expected when an anvil drops on anyone.

Dawson winces while Kairi stares in horror. Ratigan moves his hat in a form of salute "And so ends the short, undistinguished career of Basil of Baker Street."

All the while Basil was in a catatonic state as a result of his mockery

"You're despicable!" Kairi yelled

"Yes" Ratigan chuckled at the 'compliment' before turning to Fidget now dressed in a British guard uniform "Everything's ready Fidget?"

"All set boss."
Ratigan goes over to a large white box with a pink ribbon and peeks inside "Oh this is wicked! So delightfully wicked!" he chuckled wickedly as his thugs dressed in British Guards uniforms as well move the package

Ratigan walks over to Hiram Flaversham, Olivia's father and toymaker who is bound up by ropes. Close by is Olivia currently safe in the green bottle "Mr. Flaversham, let me congratulate you on a superb piece of craftsmanship." he knocks at the glass "See what you can do with the proper motivation" he cackled as he pinches Flaversham's cheek before he is taken away

The thugs climb onto Felicia, Ratigan's pet cat.

"You all know the plan."

"Right Professor" they spoke and saluted as they departed

"It was my fond hope to stay and witness your final scene but you were fifteen minutes late. And I do have an important engagement at…Buckingham Palace."

Dawson eyed Ratigan suspiciously as Kairi contemplated on everything so far

"Now you will remember to smile for the camera, won't you?" he pointed to a camera set up and ready to shoot "Hmm? Say cheese."

"You fiend!" Dawson remarked

Ratigan starts the record "Sorry chubby. You and the little lady should have chosen your friends more carefully."

The record begins to play

Ratigan: Goodbye so soon and isn't this a crime. We know by now that time knows how to fly. We go our separete ways. With time so short I'll say so long and go soon Goodbye

A dirigible flies by operated by Fidget. The mysterious package is attached by a rope and Ratigan climbs on taking off

"Adieu, auf wiedershen, arrivederci, farewell" he waves at them and chuckles "Bye bye, Basil"

Ratigan: You followed me, I followed you. We were like each other's shadows for a while. Now as you see this game is through so although it hurts I'll try to smile as I say...

The record plays on slowly tightening the cable as Olivia tries her hardest to break out of her prison

"Oh no"

"What is it Kairi?"

"Is tonight of any significance Dawson?"

Dawson thought carefully then he remembered "Oh yes it is the Eve of our good Queen's Diamond Jubilee."

"It all makes sense now. The purposes of robbery and kidnapping, the location they're now heading to it all adds up to one thing"

Dawson started to realize the whole picture and looked scared "You mean?"

"Yes Dawson. The Queen is in danger and unless we get out of here, the Kingdom is doomed."
