About this episode
Who took Ollie the owl's shiny acorns? Join Bobo & Pim, the woodland detective duo, as they hunt for a sneaky acorn thief in this fun animated mystery for kids!
Ollie the owl is SURE his whole shiny acorn collection has been stolen from his windowsill! A trail of dusty little pawprints leads Bobo & Pim from the office to the park — straight to Milo the squirrel, munching a shiny acorn. Is jumpy Milo really the thief? Or do the clues point somewhere nobody expected? Follow the trail from the park to the alley to crack the case… and discover the giggly surprise waiting at the end!

Read along with the story (this gives away the ending)
- Bobo A quiet morning at the agency. Maybe TOO quiet for my liking.
- Pim Quiet is good, Bobo. It means nobody's lost a thing today.
- Ollie Detectives! My shiny acorns — my whole collection — they've been STOLEN!
- Pim Stolen? Take a breath, Ollie. When did you last see them?
- Ollie On my windowsill last night. This morning — gone! Every shiny one!
- Bobo A real case! I'll call it... The Mystery of the Missing Treasure!
- Pim Look — little dusty pawprints, leading out toward the park.
- Ollie Pawprints? Then the thief went THAT way. Oh, follow them, please!
- Bobo There! Milo — holding a shiny acorn! Caught in the act!
- Milo Caught? Doing WHAT? I'm just having my breakfast acorn.
- Ollie That's MY shiny acorn! You took my whole collection!
- Milo This one's from MY tree. Look — I've got a hundred just like it.
- Pim Hmm. Every squirrel has acorns. One shiny nut doesn't make a thief.
- Pim And these pawprints are Milo's everyday path. They don't lead from your window, Ollie.
- Bobo Then the case shrinks! Now it's... The Riddle of the Wrong Pawprints.
- Pim A little note, dropped by the wall. And it's in YOUR writing, Ollie.
- Ollie My writing? Let me see... oh. Oh dear.
- Pim It says: 'Rain tonight — hid the shiny acorns in the OLD oak to keep them dry.'
- Ollie I... I moved them myself last night. And then I forgot. Whoo-oops.
- Bobo So nobody stole anything? The case just... solved itself!
- Ollie Found them! Safe and shiny in the old oak — right where I hid them.
- Ollie I'm so sorry, Milo. I called you a thief, and there was no thief at all.
- Milo It's alright, Ollie. And those pawprints? Just me, passing your window for breakfast.
- Milo A forgetful owl is much nicer than a real robber, anyway.
- Bobo Then I know the name! The Case of the Thief Who Was Never There.
- Pim Best kind of case, Bobo. Nobody did wrong — and everyone's friends.
- Ollie Next time I lose something, I'll check my own note FIRST. Whoo-hoo!
