Episode 4: Framed
It was a dark night in Miracle City and the museum had just displayed the gold and sliver macaw. Which was being guarded by the security guards.
"Taser?" Said the first one.
"Check!" Said the second one.
"Keys?"
"Check!"
"Flashlight!"
"Check!"
"Midnight sandwich?"
"Check! And double check!"
"Good now let's guard."
Suddenly the lights went off.
"Who's there?"
Then at the speed of lighting something ran by, knocked out the guards, and stole the macaw. The next morning the Rivera family was having breakfast.
"Son." Grandpapi said.
"Father." Rodolfo said. "Hey where's Manny?"
"Still in bed."
"Manny! Breakfast!"
"Okay Dad I'm coming!"
Manny got downstairs and sat at the table. Suddenly the door burst open and cops started running in the house.
"Freeze Riveras!" Emiliano shouted.
"What's going on?" Rodolfo said.
"The gold and sliver macaw has been stolen!"
"Okay Papi hand it over."
"Actually it was you Rodolfo!"
"Me?"
"What!" Manny gasped.
"But I've never stolen anything in my life!"
"Then explain these!" Emiliano pulled something out of the evidence bag.
"Underpants with ducks on them?"
"What!? No! Who put these in here?"
"Ha! Ha! Nice shorts!" Manny laughed.
Emiliano growled at Manny and then pulled out something else. It was Rodolfo's bronze boots of truth.
"We found these at the scene of the crime."
"I was framed!"
"Tell it to the judge!" He handcuffed Rodolfo.
"Wait a minute!" Manny said. "My Dad would never commit a crime so he must have been framed!"
"Do you have any proof?"
"No but I will get proof."
"Well until you do he's coming down town." Emiliano along with the other cops made their way to the car with Rodolfo.
"Don't worry Dad I will prove you innocent! This I swear!"
Manny went to the museum to invest agate the crime. But all he found was a broken display case.
"Hey dude." Frida said. "I heard about your dad tuff break."
"My dad's not a theif! And even if he did steal it he would've confessed or put it back."
"I know but as far as my dad and the police are concerned he's guilty."
"Whoever did this must have been a genius. A genius! That's it."
Meanwhile in a secret lab...
"At last my work is almost complete." Dr. Chipolte Jr. Said.
Then El tigre came through the window.
"Freeze Dr. Chameleon!"
"Chipolte! And what are you doing here?"
"I know it was you who stole the gold and sliver macaw!"
"What are you talking about? I don't steal from museums."
"What?"
"That's not my thing!"
"Then where were you last night?" Frida said.
"At the grocery store buying ingredients."
"For what?"
"For my chili pepper guacamole."
"Okay this is awkward." Manny and Frida left the lab. "Bye Dr. Chimpanze!"
"Chipolte!" He shouted. "Chipolte! Chipolte! You swine! How hard is that?"
"Alright well bomb goes that theory." Frida said.
"Let's think who else do we have to work with." Manny said.
"Maybe someone has a vendetta against your dad."
"Vendetta? Frida you're brilliant."
Manny knocked on the door of the flock of fury's hideout. The door was opened by Black Cuervo.
"Hello Manny, are you here for me? Not that I care!"
"Uh no. I'm here to see your mom."
"Mama!" She shouted.
Voultra flew down in front of them.
"Hello El tigre! Come to date my daughter and then leave her for another woman?"
"Um no. Look did you frame my dad?"
"Why would I frame White Pantera?"
"Because you're a little obsessed with him."
"Obsessed! I am not! He is an idiot! No wonder I broke up with him."
"Um he broke up with you."
"As if I could forget!" She screeched. "Anyway I couldn't have done it I was busy last night."
"Doing what?"
"Ummm." Scene flashback to Carmelita's bathroom. "Nothing like an eye mask and herb bath to make you feel like a new woman."
"I was doing my taxes." She lied.
"Okay then goodbye." Manny said.
"Call me!" Cuervo shouted.
"Zoe! Don't! He'll never love you for real they never do!"
"So how did it go?" Frida said.
"Nadda!" Manny sighed.
"Now what?"
"Let's check the security cameras."
They went back to the museum and watched the video.
"Dude it's been three hours and we haven't seen anything." Frida groaned.
Then something fast appeared on the video.
"Frida quick play that back!" Manny said. She rewinded the video. "Pause! Now zoom in."
They zoomed in on the figure then enhanced it.
"Sartana of the Dead!" They gasped.
Quickly they hurried to Satana's lair. "El tigre! Why are you here?"
"Give it up Sartana! We know it was you who stole the macaw and then framed my dad."
"Banditos attack!" She screamed.
Manny scratched the skeletons to dust then took Sartana's guitar and smashed it.
"No! Curse you El tigre!"
Later that afternoon they went to the police and explained everything Emiliano.
"Alright boys let him out! And Rodolfo I'm sorry. It's just that most of the time I'm on top of things." Then he walked into a metal pole. "Who put this here!"
"Thank you Miho now we can return the macaw to the museam." Rodolfo said.
"Hey wait a minute! Where did it go?" Manny said.
"Stop theif!" The police cars were chasing after Puma Loco who had the gold and sliver macaw.
"Grandpapi!" Manny and Rodolfo shouted.
