Labyrinth, Part Three: When in Rome

Episode Synopsis:
Part 3 of 3. Carmen heads to ancient Rome to steal the Coliseum, while Zack and Ivy are to fight each other for stealing a toga and stola.


Chief: Don't look now, my little jailbirds. But you're breaking out of Africa, latching onto Carmen's ion trail, and heading straight for the highest mountain range in all of Europe!
Ivy: But what year, Chief? What year?

Zack: Chief!
Ivy: Am I glad to see you!
Chief: Where in time have you two been? You never call, you never write, dinner got cold, then it decomposed.

Carmen: You'll want a ringside seat for my next theft, detectives. Carpa diem!

Definition of carpa diem: Seize the day.

Hannibal: You'll use your magic to return my elephants or face the vengeance of Hannibal's wrath!
Zack: Okay, okay! You're not the only one ticked off to Carmen Sandiego!

Ivy: And I feel like Dorothy in Munchkinland.
Zack: Looks like most people around this time didn't run much taller than five feet. Get used to a lot of stares.

Ivy: Thanks, uh...
Lucius: Lucius. Glad to help. Everyone knows old Cheese Wheel Breath is nothing but a bully.
Zack: Thanks Lucius. Catch you around, huh?

Ivy: We're going to the games. We're going to the games. Zack, we ARE the games! And at the Coliseum they play to the death, remember?!

Ivy: Carmen's bringing something in on the elephants!
Zack: But if she wants to show she's the greatest thief of all time, you can bet she'll make her move tomorrow when she's got a full house here in the Coliseum.
Ivy: Yeah. And we'll be a little too busy fighting for our lives to be able to stop her!

Ivy: Would you at least make it look like you're really trying?
Zack: I am really trying!

Zack: Ha ha, caught ya nappin!
Ivy: Hey!
Zack: Chase me, Ivy.
Ivy: What?
Zack: Just like when we were little kids. We'll give them a show!
Roman: By Juno, this girl thrashes on men with her bare hands!
Zack: Hey! You know Mom would never let you get away with that!
Ivy: Whoa! Ungh! And I would've told Dad whenever you did that!

Zack: Ivy!
Ivy: Zack, I got a silver necklace! Quick, repair the Chronoskimmer! I don't know how long I can keep this up before I get a thumbs down from Marcus Aurelius.
Zack: You mean Marcus Not-relius.
Ivy: What?
Zack: Carmen's impersonating him, Ivy! She used the stolen bust to make a latex mask!

Carmen: Now for a show these Romans will never forget.

Carmen: No! Not my time machine!

Zack: Barely enough power for her to get home, Ivy. And she won't be taking anything with her!
Carmen: I'm afraid I can only save you so many times in my disguise as Marcus Aurelius.
Zack: Get her!
Carmen: This game, you lose.
Zack: No!

Zack: For a second there I thought Carmen had lost it.
Ivy: Come on, little bro, that's not Carmen's style. The only thing Carmen lost was her shot at being the greatest thief of all time.

Ivy: We must've just missed her.
Zack: Next time I swear Carmen won't slip through our grasp like this, Chief.
Chief: Don't be so hard on yourselves, gumshoes. You saved the Coliseum for future generations, and returned the stolen items to keep the past, present, and future on track. Hey, if you were any better, you'd be...well...me! And I--AHH! And what is that?!
Ivy: Oh, Carmen's idea of a joke, Chief.
Chief: A joke?! You go get her, detectives! You bring her in! I don't care what it takes! Use all the Acme personnel and equipment! Use a credit card! You bring Carmen Sandiego in! I don't care what it takes! Use all of Acme's personnel and equipment!

Player: You tried to steal from the past, present, and future, Carmen. But it was all a waste of time.
Carmen: The only waste of time is when you have nothing to show for it.
Player: What've you got? Everything was all returned.
Carmen: You can take away the stolen items, Player, but no one can take away my experience. Not even you.
