Detective MeGee: Alright, Officer McGraw, Give it to me
straight, what are we looking at here?
McGraw: Detective MeGee! We’re glad to see you! We
could sure use your expertise on this one. It’s a break-in,
but nothing seems to have been stolen. We received a call
from the Bear family at around ten thirty this morning.
They had gone out for a walk before breakfast and came
home to this mess! Broken chairs and porridge all over the
place! Apparently, Momma Bear had made the porridge a
little too hot, you see, and they were waiting for it to cool
down.
Detective MeGee: Okay then, let’s start examining the
evidence. . . . Have the forensics team been in yet?
McGraw: Yes sir. They found some fingerprints on the
bowls and are analyzing them back at the lab as we speak.
Hopefully, they will be able to identify the burglar soon.
Detective MeGee: Hmmmm,Ah ha! What’s this? A strand
of golden hair. . . . . . this is a very important piece of trace
evidence McGraw. It tells me the suspect has long golden
hair. . . . . . . very few men have long golden hair. . . . . . .
our criminal could be a woman. . . . . .
McGraw: A woman? Was she working alone? Did she
have an accomplice?
Detective MeGee: An accomplice? No, no McGraw, she
was definitely working alone. See here, there are footprints
in the porridge, here on the floor. . . . footprints, tells me
that our suspect is small. . . . could possibly be a child.
McGraw: A child? Surely not, sir. . .
Detective MeGee: We must follow the clues, McGraw!
The evidence doesn’t lie! Now, let’s reconstruct the
crime. . . . . . the suspect came in, sat in each chair
breaking the smallest one into little pieces. Next, the
porridge. she obviously tried to eat it and because it was so
hot, she dropped it on the floor. . . . this mess.
interesting. These footprints seem to lead upstairs.
McGraw, did your officers clear the scene?
McGraw: Well, there was no one down here. . . andmaybe
we forget to check upstairs.
Goldylocks: Hey! What’s with all the noise? I’m trying
tosleep up here!
Detective MeGee: There she is! Get her!
