- Did a word that's important to you go missing?

- And now all you can feel, do or think is the opposite of that word?

- Then call us.

I'm Sly.

- And I'm Gabby.

- We're word detectives and we solve... - Word mysteries.

- Together, we run the Wordsville Online Detective Agency.

- We'll find your missing words fast.

- Not to mention briskly.

- And swiftly.

- Yeah, we're really good with words.

- [Group] Wordsville!

[bright music] [sonar beeping] [machine beeps] Hey, Sly.

Something about you is different.

Did you change your hair?

- No.

- Did you move stuff in your office?

- Nope.

- Is that a new plant?

- Nope.

Should I just tell you?

I guess so.

Huh?

I'm usually more clever than this.

- And I know why, my favorite jacket is gone.

This one.

[clicker beeps] - [gasps] The one with your name on it?

That means the word Sly is gone.

Sly is your name, but it's also a word that means someone who is clever, who gets their way by being tricky and secretive.

- Exactly, and you weren't being clever when you couldn't figure out that my jacket was missing.

- I think without the word sly, you're being a little too honest and blunt.

- That's because honest and blunt is the opposite of sly and tricky.

- This is a word mystery, but a word detective has never been the victim of a word mystery before.

- [gasps] I know, but if my name is gone, does that mean I'm gonna disappear?

- Sly, that's not how word mysteries work.

Plus you are not usually very secretive or tricky.

- Not usually, but I was tricky today when I played a game.

- What do you mean?

- I'll do some Slamnation to show you.

Freak out time!

Firefighter Ember and Scientist Cosmo came over to play my favorite game, Whodunit.

First everyone draws a card that tells them if they're the trickster or not.

Then they ask questions to figure out who the trickster really is.

But the trickster can slyly trick everyone into thinking someone else is the trickster.

We played a few rounds and I won them all.

I'm a great trickster.

I went to get more snacks and when I got back with them, everyone was gone, and so was my jacket.

- So you have to be sly and trick people when you play that game?

- Too bad the word sly is gone, so we can't be sly in solving this case.

- Yeah, maybe looking at the scene as a mystery will help.

- This is where we were playing.

[screen beeps] I'll take a screenshot.

[camera shutters] - I'll open the case notes.

[keyboard types] Oops.

Oh no, undo, undo, undo.

[keyboard types] Phew!

I don't usually fumble things this much.

We know what happened.

- My Sly jacket was taken and now we're after the opposite of sly.

- We also know where it happened.

At your Word Detective Office - When I was getting more snacks.

- Well, What kind of snacks?

- Baby Carrots.

I love the crunch, [carrot crunches] mm.

- [Gabby] The suspects are Firefighter Ember and Scientist Cosmo.

- But who did it, how and why?

- [Gabby] Let's take a look at the clues.

- [Sly] That Scientist Cosmo's pen and Firefighter Ember was making notes on that paper.

- Let's call Firefighter Ember.

[application beeping] - Oh, [chuckles] hello, Word Detectives.

- We'd like to ask you some questions.

- And I'd like to ask Sly how he kept winning Whodunit.

- I tricked you by saying Scientist Cosmo only clicked his pen only when he was a trickster.

- That was a trick?

- Yeah, he clicked his pen all the time.

Oh, no, it was supposed to be a secret.

- I'll remember that.

[mischievous music] Oops, that's a straw.

- Sure is, Firefighter Ember, can you tell us what happened?

- You mean other than Sly winning every round?

Scientist Cosmo and I got frustrated and didn't wanna play anymore, so we left when Sly went to get more carrots.

- I see, well then answer me this.

Did you take my jacket?

- Hah!

[screen beeps] - Huh?

I'll call her back.

[application beeping] - So that was weird, right?

I can't tell.

- Me neither, let's see if Scientist Cosmo can help.

[application beeping] - Oh, hello, Gabby.

Sly.

I assume this is about the thing that I don't wanna tell you about that happened at Sly Word Detective Office earlier.

- Probably.

- Well, we were playing Whodunit and Sly tricked Firefighter Ember and me every time.

- I told that Firefighter Ember took notes when she was the trickster, but that was a trick.

- Pretty sly.

- Ah, I just wanted someone else to win one round.

It didn't matter who.

I was so upset, I clicked my clicky pen until it broke.

It usually helps calm me down.

Not today.

- Yikes.

- Yeah, I came back here to relax with a new experiment.

What happens if you don't stop blowing up a balloon?

- Wow, I wonder what will happen.

- Did you see who took my jacket?

Well, I... [gasps] [machine beeps] [mischievous music] - Scientist Cosmo, you're on mute.

- [machine beeps] And then I left with Firefighter Ember.

The end.

[machine beeps] - What?

- What do you think he said when he was on mute?

- Who knows, let's go over the case notes to see if we can solve this.

- [Sly] So we know Firefighter Ember and Scientist Cosmo came to my office to play Whodunit.

- [Gabby] And they each left something behind.

- [Sly] There's Firefighter Ember's notes and Scientist Cosmo's pen.

- [Gabby] They were both frustrated about losing to you - And they both found a way to avoid answering questions about my jacket.

- You know, I feel like the answer is right in front of us.

- They were both frustrated and they both said they left together.

- And they both wanted someone else to win win.

- [gasps] Gabby, we just cracked this.

- If you say so.

[scoffs] I'm so ready to feel clever again.

But let's go reenacting.

[machine beeping] - Now presenting the Word Mystery Animated Reenactor.

The case of the... Oops.

Wrong file.

One sec.

[keyboard types] Aha, got it.

Here we go, the taste of the not so sly.

The trickster is Firefighter Ember.

- [Gabby] I think the trickster is Scientist Cosmo.

- [Sly] You're both wrong.

I'm the trickster.

You both lose again.

[carrot crunches] Ha ha.

Oh, I'm out of snacks.

I'll be right back.

[mischievous music] - [Gabby] I can't believe Sly tricked this again.

- [Sly] I just want someone else to win one round.

It doesn't matter.

- [Gabby] Agreed, If only Sly was less sly.

[mischievous music] - Firefighter Ember and Scientist Cosmo, you took Sly's jacket together.

- I didn't see it happen because I was getting more snacks.

- That's how you did it.

- You both wanted me to be less, oh, what's the word?

Oh, yeah, sly.

- That's why you did it.

- You caught us.

We were both so frustrated that no one else was winning, so we slyly teamed up to make him less sly.

- We were going to play another round once he was less clever, but we kinda forgot like right away.

- I know it's hard to lose, but you have to be a good sport about it.

- You're right.

Sorry we took your jacket, Sly.

We'll bring it back.

- I'm sorry for being a sore winner.

I liked winning so much that I didn't realize you guys weren't having any fun.

- That's okay.

Now I can finally finish my experiment, oops.

Back to square one.

[machine beeping] [pen scribbling] - Ah, that's better.

The word sly is back where it belongs.

- Now who's up for a round of Whodunit online?

Just for fun.

- Well... - Sure.

- Okay.

[machine beeping] [mischievous music] - Sly smirked.

I saw it.

He's gotta be the trickster.

- [Ember And Cosmo] Sly's the trickster!

- Wait, no!

- Ha!

Tricked you.

I'm the trickster.

- She did it!

- Gabby out-slyed Sly.

- Best two out of three?

- You're on!
