faithful sidekick Sparky?

Hopefully something really evil is happening today.

Oh, uh, I can't.

I have to do a thing.

At the place.

What place?

Oh, good question.

Um, at the butcher's.

There's... a new flavor of meat.

Gotta go, bye.

(spy music playing) Oof!

Oops, sorry TD.

Hot dogs, huh?

Are you having a barbecue?

Oh, uh, they're not for me.

Who are they for?

They're in case anyone comes over who likes hot dogs, and my dad wanted hot dogs, and hot dogs are just good to have around for emergencies, and why don't you believe me about the hot dogs?!

Gotta go.

Hmm... She wasn't here at all?

Okay, thanks.

"A new flavor of meat"?

I can't believe you fell for that.

Martha's lying to you because she's in on it.

It's "The Cheating Chum and the Criminal Canine Caper."

Catchy, huh?

Lots of "C's".

No, it must be a misunderstanding.

Martha would never lie to me.

We're lying, and Helen knows it.

We're safe.

I gave her all kinds of different reasons why I had the hot dogs, and then I ran away.

That's exactly what someone does when they're lying.

(panting nervously) I should never have agreed to this.

Martha, listen to me.

You've got to hold it together, at least until next week.

That's the big quiz.

You can't crack on me.

I can't do it, I tell you!

I can't do it!

I have hot dogs.

I can do it.

Hot dogs!

These will taste way better
