Read along with the story (this gives away the ending)
- Narrator Detective Bobo had no case. So, naturally, he made one.
- Bobo A sharp detective is always ready, Pim. No case today? Then I shall stay in practice.
- Pim It is a quiet Tuesday, Bobo. There is nothing to practice on.
- Ollie Detectives! Please guard my prize cookie. I won it for Best Hoot. Back soon!
- Bobo Best Hoot! Imagine the mysteries that owl has seen.
- Bobo A detective's mind never rests. Think, think... nibble, nibble.
- Narrator Keep your eye on that cookie. Bobo did not.
- Bobo Pim! The prize cookie — it is GONE! A theft, in our very own office!
- Pim Bobo, I really think—
- Bobo No time to think! Seal the doors. Everyone is a suspect!
- Bobo Time for some big questions! We shall get to the truth. Bring in the suspects!
- Bobo Milo! Where were you at nibble o'clock? And why is your acorn looking at me like that?
- Milo M-me? I only had my acorn. I never touched the cookie!
- Bobo The nervous ones always crack. Why so nervous, Milo?
- Pim Because you are shouting at him, Bobo.
- Bobo Fern! That grin. Only a guilty grin grins like that.
- Narrator Bobo suspected Fern. Bobo always suspects Fern.
- Fern Check the clues, detective — not my face.
- Bobo Then to the clues! A cookie flees to where cookies are made — the kitchen!
- Pim Cookies do not flee, Bobo.
- Bobo Aha! Crumbs! The thief passed through this very kitchen!
- Pim Those are old crumbs, Bobo. From yesterday's lunch.
- Bobo Unless you are ALL in on it! Milo, Fern — a secret cookie ring!
- Milo A ring? I cannot even keep a secret to save my tail!
- Bobo Then turn out your pockets, all of you! No pockets? Even MORE suspicious!
- Fern A calm detective solves more than a loud one, Bobo.
- Pim Enough chasing, Bobo. Back to the office — the answer is closer than you think.
- Pim Let's check the clues, detective. No broken window. No crumbs on the floor.
- Pim But there ARE crumbs — somewhere. So, friends: who do YOU think ate the cookie?
- Pim Bobo. Look at your paws.
- Bobo ...Crumbs. On my own paws. And — one last bite. Oh.
- Narrator The detective had cracked the case. The detective was also the case.
- Bobo It was me. I ate the cookie while I was thinking. I am the thief!
- Bobo Bobo — you are under arrest! ...I want a lawyer. Wait — I AM the lawyer. I say nothing!
- Ollie My cookie? Oh, Bobo. It is only a cookie. We will share the next one.
- Fern Everyone forgets a nibble now and then.
- Pim Case closed, detective. A true inside job.
- Narrator Case closed. An inside job — from inside Bobo.
