Boyhood's End, Part Two
Episode Synopsis:
Part 2 of 2. Acme detective Lee Jordan turns ex-Acme detective--he joins up with Carmen, but eventually goes solo and gets arrested by Zack and Ivy.
Lee Jordan: I've done what no other detective has ever been able to do, and I've done it twice!
Carmen: Great minds have always needed challenges. Picasso, Alexander the Great. What's left if you've caught the greatest thief of all time?
Lee Jordan: I didn't come all this way to arrest you, Carmen! I came to join you!
Carmen: I knew you'd be the one who would see the challenges of planning the world's ultimate thefts.
Lee Jordan: I see more than that, Carmen. A lot more.
Ivy: Hurry, Zack!
Zack: Whoa! Ivy!
Ivy: Hang on, little bro!
Zack: Like I have a choice?
Lee Jordan: Say hello to your newest nemesis, detectives! *laughs* Me!
Ivy: Lee, no!
Carmen: Don't you ever try anything like that again!
Lee Jordan: They were practically in here! I didn't have any choice.
Carmen: There are always choices. When you use your brains and not your brawn.
Ivy: Lee Jordan! I'll get you!
Ivy: Chief! We've got big problems! Carmen showed up and Lee went off on his own and--
Chief: Sheesh! Whatever happened to "hello?" I'm a person too, you know! Kind of. I've got feelings! It's always, "Call the Chief! We've got problems!" Do you ever call just to say hello? Invite me out for a cappucino? A scone? A game of Twister?
Zack: Lee went over to Carmen's team! He joined VILE!
Chief: Wait, wait, wait! I'm breaking up! Someone's in the system! Oh that tickles!
Ivy: I'll see you rot behind bars if it's the last thing I ever do, Lee Jordan!
Carmen: Well then, Ivy, here's a clue to what we'll be doing.
Lee Jordan: These keys are in a coat, detectives. But they won't open a lock.
Zack: Cool! A monkey won't open a lock! Get it, Ive? A monkey?
Ivy: Puh-leeze, Zack.
Lee Jordan: Plan A, prove to Carmen I'm indispensable at--huh?
Carmen: Ready, Lee?
Lee Jordan: Why are we going to steal some 400-year-old book anyway, Carmen?
Carmen: This particular copy of Dante's Divine Comedy is a classic. It was illustrated and handpainted by the artist Bottecelli.
Lee Jordan: Yeah, but 400-year-old coins or jewels would be worth a lot more.
Carmen: The worth is in the craftsmanship. Work with me and you'll learn the same applies to the perfect heist.
Lee Jordan: Yeah, sure. Let's go!
Lee Jordan: Dear Zack and Ivy, wish you were here.
Ivy: I think your library card just expired, Lee!
Lee Jordan: I think you're wrong!
Zack and Ivy: Whoa!
Ivy: Come on!
Lee Jordan: Here's a penny. Buy yourselves a clue, detectives.
Ivy: So, you're just Carmen's errand boy, now. Delivering and covering for her escapes, huh Ace?
Lee Jordan: Hey! I deliver my own clues! And that penny's only one part of it! You'll have to earn the other part if you wanna catch me in the biggest crime of the century! I'll show Carmen I don't need to be tested!
Ivy: Lee! No! [POOR QUALITY]
Ivy: He really boils my pasta! He quits Acme, becomes Carmen's protege, robs the Vatican, oh!
Zack: Yeah, and he makes far too much noise in a library too.
News Reporter: Authorities now report that in the last 48 hours, valuable gems were stolen from the Smithsonian Institution. Plus, in Athens, Greece, the day's ticket sales from the museum turned up missing from the National Archaeological Museum.
Carmen: Lee. I am not training him so that he can work for himself.
Ivy: We've got you now, Lee!
Lee Jordan: It's about time you caught up with me, too bad you can't reel me in, detectives!
Lee Jordan: You're a day late and a dollar short, gumshoes. But you got heart. Here's Part Two of my big clue.
Zack: Huh?
Lee Jordan: Ah ha ha!
Zack: A chocolate mint coin? I hate mint!
Ivy: Hm.
Computer: Access denied. Code invalidated.
Lee Jordan: CARMEN!
Henchman 1: Carmen left orders not to let you in anymore.
Lee Jordan: She can't cut me out!
Henchmen 1 and 2: Whoa!
Henchman 1: Code red, Lee Jordan's on his way up.
Lee Jordan: What do you think you're doing, locking me out? We're partners!
Carmen: Wrong, Lee. We're through. You failed.
Lee Jordan: I failed?! I've proven I can steal anything, anywhere, anytime.
Carmen: By turning your back on my most basic principles.
Lee Jordan: Oh, get off it, Carmen! You're nothing but a thief yourself! And just because you pretend it's all a game doesn't make it any better than what I'm doing! Face it, we're the same, you and me, daring everyone to try and stop us. You see, the only difference is, I'm not as easily satisfied as you. Your rules bore me, Carmen. You want the game to be over? Then it's over. I gave Zack and Ivy two clues to my own master crime, and they won't even come close to catching me! I'm the best in the world! And you're history, Carmen Sandiego!
Carmen: If I'm history, Lee Jordan, then it seems like history is about to be rewritten.
Zack: We've been at this for hours, Ivy.
Ivy: We've cross-checked chocolate and copper, Lincoln and the Swiss Alps...What could Lee be up to?
Zack: Look, Ivy--a hot tip from Carmen?
Ivy: Leave San Francisco and don't go to Denver?
Carmen: You made a big mistake, Lee.
Lee Jordan: And you made an even bigger mistake coming here. Even you couldn't steal the entire US Mint, Carmen.
Carmen: I would never have wanted to.
Ivy: You've got nowhere to go, Lee! The place is surrounded by police.
Lee Jordan: But I've got the one thing you've always wanted, detectives. Do what I say, and she's yours. Fill up with all the bags it'll hold!
Ivy: Zack, the ingots are solid gold. We can weigh him down faster than with the coins.
Zack: If I were Lee, I'd go for the gold ingots. He can get more on board and and they're worth more.
Lee Jordan: Ah, good thinking, Zack. Fill the vehicle with the ingots instead.
Carmen: Yes, very good thinking indeed, Zack.
Zack: Fair exchange, I'd say.
Ivy: Now, let's stop Mr. Wonder Glove!
Zack: Give it up, geekwad!
Ivy: You're busted, loser, and I'm going to love sending you away for good!
Carmen: Bravo, detectives. Just wanted to stay long enough to see you make the world safe for thieves like me again.
Lee Jordan: Well, you win some, you lose some, detectives.
Ivy: Right. Today, a creep like you, Lee.
Zack: Tomorrow, a crook with class, like Carmen Sandiego.
Carmen: A famous writer, F. Scott Fitzgerald, once said, "Show me a hero, and I'll write you a tragedy."
Player: Meaning what, Carmen?
Carmen: The tragedy here, is Lee's lack of maturity kept him from being a great detective or a great thief. See you next crime, Player...if you're up to it.
