The Tigress

Episode Synopsis:
A thief named the Tigress has been taking items Carmen had planned on stealing--so Carmen tries to get to the bottom of things.


Carmen: Napoleon's army pieces gone? But who?

Carmen: No one outmanuevers Carmen Sandiego.

Player: Looks like you have some clever competition now, Carmen.
Carmen: Well, a certain philosopher once said, "Competition can make you stronger," Player.
Player: Which philosopher said that?
Carmen: Me.

Zack: Chief, quick! Activate the Shield of Silence!
Chief: Where on earth have you two been?
Ivy: We've got to talk to you in private, Chief!
Chief: Carmen's at it again!
Zack: We know! And we're--
Chief: We were right as raids of recent thefts all involving famous strategists or strategies! First she ran to Iran where she ran off with that 500-year-old chess set! A pretty strategic game, I prefer checkers myself.
Zack: Chief!
Chief: Then she stole the war maps of General William Tecumseh Sherman, whose famous march to the sea helped end the American Civil War!
Ivy: Chief, would you listen to us for a second!
Chief: Then, true to her pattern, last night Carmen breaks into the Army Museum in Paris, France, stealing the files and army pieces of one of the famous strategists of all time, Napoleon Bonaparte!
Zack and Ivy: Chief!!
Chief: We have to put a stop to Carmen's strategic! We've got to--
Ivy: Look, it's Carmen!
Carmen: Sorry to Telnet in unannounced. But I didn't steal Napoleon's files and map pieces last night.
Ivy: Oh? Then who did?
Carmen: It's all over the French newspapers. Someone calling herself the Tigress beat me to them.
Ivy: So maybe you should retire, huh Carmen?
Carmen: Maybe you should have this Tigress character arrested, and if you can't, Ivy, maybe I will.
Zack: How did you steal our Telnet passwords?
Carmen: I'll be monitoring CrimeNet 24 hours a day, Zack. I want to know what you're doing to put this new amateur out of business. Meanwhile, I've left you a real stinker of a clue in Paris for our little game. Au revoir.

Chief: But then the Phantom of the Opera couldn't escape down your socks, now could he?

Carmen: Too late, while Carmen's away, the cat will play, the Tigress.

Ivy: Something wrong, Carmen?
Carmen: Obviously you two haven't stopped the Tigress yet!
Zack: First things first, Carmen. You're Acme's top priority!

Zack: Looks like an apple a day keeps Carmen's henchmen away.
Ivy: Cute Zack...very cute.

Tigress: What's wrong, Carmen? Cat got your tongue? [FILE MISSING]

Tigress: Looks like you missed me.
Carmen: Looks like you missed the point! [FILE MISSING]

Tigress: And it looks like you've met your match! [FILE MISSING]

Carmen: This tiger lives in a place for the birds, especially those dressed formally.

Zack: Nice night for an arrest, Carmen.
Carmen: You had your chance, Zack. This is strictly between me and the Tigress now, and I'm keeping her clue all to myself.
Chief: Whoa! Stop, thief! Somebody! Uh, what are you standing around for? Did she leave a clue?
Ivy: No clue, Chief. And it looks like she's given up on our case!
Zack: All she cares about is a face-off with that Tigress person!
Chief: Oh, so close and yet so what! What are we going to do now?
Ivy: I guess we just let her go do what she's got to do.

Tigress: It's 32 below out there, Carmen. Why don't you come in where we can get acquainted. The victor and the vanquished, eh Carmen?
Carmen: You haven't beaten me yet, Tigress.
Zack: That's where you're wrong.
Carmen: Huh? How did you know I was coming here? I never gave you the Tigress' clue.
Tigress/Ivy: You didn't have to. We made it up.
Carmen: You? You're the Tigress?!
Chief: What's this C-5 journey to the South Pole that just showed up without you telling me? Or I...but you...why...oh...why am I standing here like my IQ has more zeros than the old Japanese airport?
Zack: Chief, we tried to tell you what we were up to but we couldn't!
Ivy: Carmen had access to listen in on our transmissions, remember?
Carmen: Bravo, detectives. I always knew you were good, but you've outdone yourselves this time.
Zack: Well you gave us the idea back when you started stealing items that had to do with strategies and strategists.
Ivy: Luckily we broke all your clues in record time and got to the scenes of the crimes before you.
Zack: Then we put the item in you were after in protective custody.
Ivy: And I made sure you saw the Tigress leaving the scene.
Zack: Hey hey, check it out, Chief. I made these carbon dioxide powered booster boots. Just push this trigger and instant Michael Jordan. Ha ha! Cool, huh?
Carmen: Why the South Pole for our rendezvous, detectives?
Ivy: You always have some escape up your sleeve, Carmen, so we baited you in the middle of the most desolate place on earth--Antarctica!
Zack: Ha ha!
Carmen: *gasps*
Zack: Except we brought a few friends along so you wouldn't get lonely.
Ivy: The perfect strategy has just put you behind bars. [FILE MISSING]

Ivy: Well, little bro, we finally did it! We captured the great Carmen Sandiego!
Zack: Yeah, and with a little help from the Tigress and our greatest strategic plan ever.
Carmen: Congradulations, detectives. But you made one strategic mistake.
Ivy: Oh yeah? And what would that be, Carmen?
Carmen: Never let the enemy know your secrets.

Ivy: "When it comes to the strategy of winning, detectives, a tie or a split decision simply won't do."
Zack: Argh! We had her, Ivy! I can't believe it! We had her, and she got away again! We did everything right, and still she found a way!

Carmen: Look at your globe. Pick a spot. It's always morning somewhere.
