Back at Baker Street, Mrs. Judson had finished sewing up Rosa's red-purple dress when she heard the door open from outside the kitchen. She left the kitchen and saw Basil, Dawson, and Rosa come into the room. All three of them, wet and dirty from the muddy puddle Toby splashed in.

Basil: (dryly) I wish Toby hadn't jumped into that puddle on the way home.

Mrs. Judson: Good heavens! What happened to you all?

But Basil ignored her, shoved his wet, muddy, brown trench coat in her arms and stormed into the back room to get a bath ready. The door was slammed shut loudly. Mrs. Judson looked at Dawson and Rosa, concerned. Rosa followed Basil into the back room where two large bath tubs were kept. Basil was filling up one tub with hot water.

Rosa: Basil, what's gotten into you? You should be happy that you recovered the mace.

Basil: (angrily) I was, but it's your fault Doran got away!

Rosa: My fault?

Basil: You gave us away when I could've gotten more information on Doran's scheme! You call yourself an intelligent and well-behaved girl, yet you were stupid enough to accompany me and Dawson to the East End and give us away! I told you that you should've stayed here where it's safe! You promised you wouldn't get in my way!

Rosa: I didn't get in your way! I didn't' do anything wrong! All I did was tell Dawson-

Basil: (yells) Just leave Dawson out of this! His life was threatened because of you! You dare to call him a loveable moose when he's my friend! Ugh! Why must women like you be so stubborn when you call men arrogant?! It makes me wonder why I'm wasting my time with you by finding some silly painting of a woman who's about to become our next queen when I don't have the evidence that we found! But the sooner I find that portrait, the sooner we'll be out of each other's hair!

And with that, he slammed the door in Rosa's face. Rosa just stood there for a moment, and then frowned.

Rosa: Alright! The sooner you find it, the sooner I leave you for good!

She ran past Dawson and Mrs. Judson (they both heard everything), up the stairs, and into her room. She dropped down on the bed and sobbed. Dawson followed her and knocked on her door.

Dawson: Miss Spellcove, is everything alright?

Rosa: Go away!

Dawson: What happened between you and Basil?

Rosa: I said go away!

Dawson sorrowfully went back downstairs. Mrs. Judson gave a look like asking 'is she ok?' Dawson shook his head, then he headed for back room where Basil was.

Dawson: Leave him to me, Mrs. Judson.

When Dawson disappeared behind the door, Mrs. Judson went upstairs and knocked on Rosa's door.

Mrs. Judson: Miss Spellcove, I finished sewing up your dress if you want it. I'm cooking dinner right now, and you can come down when you're up to it.

As soon as Mrs. Judson went back downstairs, Rosa opened the door a bit. She picked up her old, red-purple dress, and closed the door. She examined it closely. The torn shreds had been tenderly sewn together. Then she found that little gold bell, that once belonged to her father, still under the bed. She picked it up and held it close.

Rosa: You had every right to hate that man, papa, after what he done to our family. And to think I started to like him.

So, when the parlor was empty, Rosa crept down the stairs. She was now wearing her red-purple dress, her small red-purple hat with the fake flowers, and her hair was half up in a red-purple bow. She carried her purse, which contained her dagger and the gold bell. Rosa crept to the door, but stepped on a creaky loose floorboard. She stopped suddenly and looked back, thinking someone might have heard her. But nobody came out. Rosa continued to tip toe up the small steps and to the front door. She opened it and slipped out.

Suddenly, the door to the back room was opened, and Basil and Dawson walked out, wearing bathrobes. Basil wore a purple bathrobe and Dawson wore a blue bathrobe. Rosa quickly shut the door before Basil and Dawson could notice it was open slightly, and she fled into the night.

Basil: Mrs. Judson! We're ready for dinner!

Dawson: Basil, don't you think you were a bit harsh on Miss Rosa?

Basil: What makes you think I was harsh on the girl? She had no right to come with us to the East End.

Dawson: (upset) Now why would you say that, Basil?! It wasn't her fault we were discovered!

Basil: Of course it was! She gave us away-

Dawson: (yells) Because of me!

Basil: What?

Dawson: If there's someone to blame, it's me. I was distracted by a very lovely lady at the bar. Rosa saw me and scolded me for doing so.

Basil: Are you kidding me, old man?! You should've kept your mind occupied in our work!

Dawson: And furthermore, she saved my life from that dreaded ruffian! You could've at least thanked her for that instead of scolding her!

Basil opened his mouth to say something, but his jaw dropped when he now understood what Dawson was telling him.

Dawson: Perhaps now you could at least apologize to her for taking it out on her.

Basil: (sighs) Your right. I'll go talk to her.

He went upstairs to Rosa's room and knocked on the door.

Basil: Miss Spellcove? I know you're in there. Please open the door and let me in. I want to apologize for my rough behavior towards you.

But there was no answer. It was very quiet. Basil knocked again. No answer, not even a sound.

Basil: Miss Spellcove? Can you hear me?

He opened the door and walked in. Basil gasped with surprise that the young girl was not there. He rushed back downstairs to where Dawson and Mrs. Judson were talking.

Basil: Dawson! Mrs. Judson! She's gone!

Dawson: What?

Mrs. Judson: But we saw her go upstairs!

Dawson: Maybe she's in another room.

Basil: I doubt that, old man. We must find her!

Mrs. Judson: But what about dinner?

Basil: You'll have to put it on hold, Mrs. Judson! We have to find Rosa Spellcove before harm comes to her!

Basil had sent a message for Higgins and the Irregulars to come to Baker Street. Within moments, the Baker Street Irregulars burst in through the door. They stumbled and tumbled their way into the house and piled on top of each other. But they quickly sat up again and stood in a line like a military army, facing Basil and Dawson.

Higgins: We got your message. What do you want us to do for you, guvnor?

Basil: Before I tell you Higgins, you must remember that in future, they can report to you as you to me. I cannot have the house invaded this way.

Higgins: (shrugs his shoulders) Oye, sir.

Harry noticed Mike trying to sneak a silver candlestick in his pocket, and he slapped his hand, forcing Mike to put the candlestick back.

Basil: Now, I want to find Miss Rosa Spellcove.

Clark: Isn't she the lady we gave directions to come here?

Dawson: You all know her?

Daniel: Yep! This morning, we met her on the street. She was looking for Baker Street.

Billy: We gave her a tour of the city while taking her here.

Dawson: That's very good of you boys.

Harry: I thought she was very pretty.

Higgins: You said you wanted us to find her?

Basil: She left us, due to an argument I had with her. I need everyone's help in finding her before something bad happens to her.

Higgins: Right, sir? But where do you want us to look?

Basil: Anywhere and everywhere! Now come! Let us go!

The boys ran out of the house, with Basil and Dawson behind. Toby had been standing outside the fence and watched as the boys ran down the street to search for Rosa. Basil had Toby sniff the envelope Rosa had used to write to Basil. Toby lowered his head, letting Basil and Dawson climb onto his head, and he bolted off with the Irregulars to search for Rosa.

Higgins: Somewhere in the heart of London

Some dumb, humdrum, slum of London

Somewhere there's a beautiful girl

Billy: A needle in a haystack

Daniel: A diamond in the dustbin

Harry: Some lay in a cold gray sky

Higgins: And somehow we shall find her

Clark: Find her

Mike: Find her

Billy/Daniel/Harry: Find her, by and by

Basil: Where in heaven's name in this city, in this gritty down gazelle

In the grip of Doran, has he come to drag her down to the underworld

It's not easy to protect her, for I like for too well

Where in London do I find this intelligent and beautiful girl

BSI: Somewhere somehow, I shall find her

By a statue, by a river

By a fountain, or per chance

At a wedding, at a funeral

At a party, at a glance

In a carriage, in a taxi

In a temple, in a trance

Somewhere somehow, I shall find her

Billy stopped to eat some freshly cooked cheese a merchant was selling, but Higgins didn't want him to stop for a lunch break, so he grabbed Billy by the collar and dragged him back into the search party.

Dawson: By a bus seat, by an oak tree

By a millhouse, by a stream

In a dungeon, in a castle

In a moment, in a dream

Basil: I have no way of predicting when or where we're meant to meet

On a Monday or a Tuesday

On a corner of a street

Dawson: But there is one that is certain

That the moment will be sweet

Basil/Dawson/BSI: Somewhere somehow, I shall find her

I repeat, and when I find her

This I know, I shall never, never ever let her go

Chorus: I shall find her

Somewhere somehow

I shall find her

Meanwhile, Rosa was all alone somewhere on the streets, without any place to go to.

Rosa: Find me, I won't let him

I can't let him get to me

He won't find me, I will lose him, and lose him for a week

I know he doesn't care about me, that pip squeak

He must not achieve

As I run away for home

He thinks this is a game of hide and seek

She runs further on through the streets. Meanwhile, Basil, Dawson, Toby, and the Irregulars are still searching for Rosa, concerned and worried of what might happen to her.

Basil: Will I find her in a minute

Dawson: Will I find her in an hour, in a moment filled with sunshine or a rainy April shower

Higgins: In the tea leaves in my teacup, in the petals of a flower

Basil: Somewhere somehow, I shall find her

Give me power

Chorus: In a huddle, in a doorway

In a damp hole, in a storm by a far side

Roasting chestnuts where it's closing where it's warm

By a manor, by a beauty

By her sweetness, by her side

Basil: By her dress, by her perfume

Dawson: By the color of her eyes

Chorus: By a moment, what a victory

What a triumph, what a prize

Somewhere, somehow

Find her, find her

Somewhere, somehow

Find her, find her

Somewhere, somehow

Find her, find her

I shall find her, find her

I shall never let her go

Higgins: Mr. Basil! I think Toby's got the scent!

Toby let out a howl when he got Rosa's scent.

Basil/Chorus: And when I find her

This I know

I shall never, never, ever let her go

Somewhere on the streets of London, Rosa was lost, cold, and lonely. She didn't know where to go or didn't know where to find her home.

Rosa: I wish I had a map. I don't know where to go or how I'm going to get home. The sooner I get home, the sooner I can get rid of that pest of a sleuth! And when I'm rid of him I...I…I don't know what I'll do if Basil's gone.

For the first time, Rosa was beginning to question her motives to avenge to her father, Professor Ratigan. She loved her father dearly, but she was beginning to develop feelings for Basil. Like the first time she saw him, she thought he was handsome. And when they touched noses back at the East End. She reached into her purse and took out the gold bell.

Rosa: Oh papa, what did you do to make Basil hate you and why everyone in London hates our family?

Suddenly, a dark figure snuck up behind her. Before she could turn around, the man knocked her down with a club.
