At the Lee Heights Community Center, the Lee Heights Girl Scouts were having their arts n crafts fundraiser. Leah, Tania, Paige, and Kaylin were part of the troop. Estrella and Rylie were the only ones who weren't in the scout troop because Estrella might do too much of them at once and Rylie would eat all the profits.
Just then a woman with short hair and fishing apparel came in. "That's the legendary Quinn Quincey," Leah whispered.
"Poyo (Quinn Quincey?)?" Kirby asked.
"She's famous because she had excellent fishing skills, and she now runs a bait shop in Harrisburg," Tania explained.
By a macaroni table, they met Chief Hess' daughter, Kristi, and Kaylin's youngest sister, Lelannee, who was also Kristi's best friend. "Look what I made," Kristi said as she showed a picture of a puffer fish out of macaroni.
"That's very creative of you, Kristi," Chief Hess replied.
"I was thinking of our trip to Hawaii last year, Daddy," Kristi explained, "where you and Mom went snorkeling while I was at the kids' club."
"Den Sister McBruce!" a black girl shouted. "Someone has stolen the fundraiser money!"
"Fayth the Tattletale," Kaylin growled. "She's always blabbing things out."
They walked up to the charity box to see if Fayth was telling the truth, and she was. All of the hard earned money was stolen. "Nobody panic!" Leah shouted. "The Kirby Klue Queens will get to the bottom of this!"
Tania looked at the charity box to see some sewing needles.

Outside, they decided to find some clues on how did the thief get in. That was when Swinger started to sniff for something, and he found a trail of cookie crumbs. Leah, Kaylin, and Estrella thought it was Mintapalooza cookies, but Paige didn't think so. "Everyone knows that Mintapalooza is the most popular girl scout cookie of them all," she recalled. "Good for vegetarians, too."
Rylie believed her. "This is Smorock and Roll" she replied as she sniffed the cookie crumbs. "Someone must really love campfire food."
They followed the trail to an old camping trailer at the back of the community center. Just then, 2 thuggish men came in and locked the door. "It's a trap!" Leah shouted.
The 2 thugs came in and tossed some stink bombs that smelled like rotten fish. This knocked out the girls and Kirby. Luckily, Swinger was the only one to escape by going through the window.
"Let the monkey go," said one thug. "We don't want to blow cover by poaching them."
Swinger decided to go look for help.

Later, the Klue Queens were tied up and blindfolded by the thugs while Kirby was tied by the hands and feet. "What's going on here?" Leah demanded.
"Don't worry," said a thug. "The boss will deal with you later."
They closed the door when a voice shouted, "You have the right to remain silent!"
"Daddy," the girl said, "what did Mommy say abowt taking powice duty to an eweven?"
"Kristi?" Leah asked.
"It's okay, we're here," Chief Hess explained. "Plus I found your cellphones by the table. Apparently, those thugs don't want kids to waste their weekly allowances."
"That was smart thinking from you, Chief Hess," another familiar voice called.
"Lelannee?" Kaylin asked as she removed her blindfold. She saw the 2 friends and the police chief.
"Nice work, Lelannee and Kristi," Leah smiled as she removed hers. "I can't believe that those creeps tied and blindfolded us up."
Then Tania started to notice something as she removed her blindfold. "This isn't just any blindfold," she said. "It's a Girl Scout neckerchief."
They looked around to see that there was a hotel's bathroom. "Let's get out of here before we smell like toilet," Tania said as they left.

Outside the bathroom, they realize they were in a hotel room. By the bed, they saw a scout vest, and not just any vest - it had a lot of fishing patches and a badge for selling 100 Smorock 'n Roll cookies in 1 day.
"This is Quinn's badge!" Leah exclaimed.
"I can't believe that Quinn Quincy would do this to us," Tania snarled.
"Alright," Rylie growled at the thugs. "Where's Quinn Quincey?"
Rylie decided to pelt them with Smorock 'n Roll cookies from the drawers. The other girls joined in. "Okay, okay!" shouted one thug. "She's at the Mayor's Office, trying to convince the mayor to promote her business."
"Pelted by the boss's favorite cookie," Leah smiled. "Clever, Rylie."

Later, they arrived at the Mayor's office, where they saw Quinn with a fake charity paper. They needed to stop Quinn fast. Leah tossed some Girl Scout cookies to Kirby, and he turned into Stone Kirby. He rushed up to the paper and smashed it.
"I heard of paper covers rock," Mayor Hess recalled, "but this is ironic."
"That's because her charity funding doesn't exist," Kaylin stated. "It's a ruse to use up Lititz Heights' profits."
"What?!" the mayor shouted.
"Ignore those girls with that giant gumball," lied Quinn. "They're just jealous 'cause they don't know the values of overfishing."
"Actually," Rylie said, "I fished with my dad and brother all the time, and this is fake."
"And the one thing that's real," Paige continued, "is that you stole the charity money."
"We saw a couple of sewing needles by the fundraiser box," Tania explained. "There was a trail of Smorock 'n Roll cookies. Out of all the scouts, Quinn enjoys them the most."
"Not to mention the blindfolds we had on were Girl Scout neckerchiefs," Rylie sneered.
"Let's not forget her fishing skills," Kaylin replied. "How else would her thugs knock us out with that old fish smell?"
"Finally," Estrella said, "there was the Girl Scout vest. Who'd have thought that a legendary scout would turn against us?"
"I needed the money to keep promoting my bait shop," Quinn explained. "So perhaps it was the fundraiser money from the Girl Scout fundraiser. I shouldn't have hired those thugs from the nightclub next to my shop."
"No more badges for you, Quinn," Leah scolded as the officers took Quinn away.

Later, Quinn and her thugs were being pelted by more Smorock 'N Roll cookies. "Since she wants to keep her title as best fisher in the scouts," Leah explained, "figure that her favorite snack being turned on would be the perfect punishment."
"And looks like Grandma is enjoying it too," Chief Hess said to Kristi. "She was a Girl Scout in her early days too."
"Okay, people," Mayor Hess called out. "I earned badges in politics and dodgeball, and here's how you do it." She tossed a cookie, which landed on Quinn's head. "That's for stealing the money!" shouted the mayor.
Paige came in with some great news. "I had a talk with the den mother, and we have received your Mystery Solving Badge."
The girls cheered.
The End
