Detective MeGee: Alright,Officer McGraw,Give it to me straight, what are we looking at here?
McGraw: Detective MeGee! We’re glad to see you! We could sure use your expertise on this one. It’s a break-in, but nothing seems to have been stolen. We received a call from the Bear family at around ten thirty this morning. They had gone out for a walk before breakfast and came home to this mess! Broken chairs and porridge all over the place! Apparently, Momma Bear had made the porridge a little too hot, you see, and they were waiting for it to cool down.
Detective MeGee:Okay then, let’s start examining the evidence. . . Have the forensics team been in yet?
McGraw:Yes sir. They found some fingerprints on the bowls and are analyzing them back at the lab as we speak. Hopefully, they will be able to identify the burglar soon.
Detective MeGee: Hmmmm,Ah ha! What’s this? A strand of golden hair. . . this is a very important piece of trace evidence ，McGraw. It tells me the suspect has long golden hair. . . very few men have long golden hair... our criminal could be a woman...
McGraw: A woman? Was she working alone? Did she have an accomplice?
Detective MeGee: An accomplice? No, no .McGraw, she was definitely working alone. See here, there are footprints in the porridge, here on the floor... footprints, tells me that our suspect is small. . . could possibly be a child.
McGraw: A child? Surely not, sir. . .
Detective MeGee: We must follow the clues, McGraw! The evidence doesn’t lie! Now, let’s reconstruct the crime. . . the suspect came in, sat in each chair breaking the smallest one into little pieces. Next, the porridge. she obviously tried to eat it and because it was so hot, she dropped it on the floor. . . . this mess.interesting. These footprints seem to lead upstairs. McGraw, did your officers clear the scene?
McGraw: Well, there was no one down here. . . and maybe we forget to check upstairs.
Goldylocks: Hey! What’s with all the noise? I’m trying to sleep up here!
Detective MeGee: There she is! Get her!

Detective MeGee: McGraw，請(qǐng)你直接說，我們?cè)谶@兒尋找什么?
McGraw：MeGee偵探，很高興看見你。我們一定能用到你的經(jīng)驗(yàn)。這是入室偷竊，但是看起來沒有東西被偷。盡早大概10點(diǎn)半左右我們收到來自Bear家的電話。他們?cè)谠顼埱俺鋈ド⒉?，回家就遇到這種混亂局面。破碎的椅子和粥弄得到處都是。首先，Bear媽媽做的粥有點(diǎn)太熱了，他們正在等粥涼下來。
Detective MeGee: 好吧，我們來看下證據(jù)，檢測(cè)組已經(jīng)到了嗎?
McGraw：是的，他們發(fā)現(xiàn)了腕上的一些指紋，我們手滑的時(shí)候他們正在實(shí)驗(yàn)室分析。他們很有希望鑒定出竊賊。
Detective MeGee: 這是什么?一縷金色的頭發(fā)，這是很重要的追蹤證據(jù)，它表明嫌疑犯有長(zhǎng)的金色頭發(fā)，很少有男人留著長(zhǎng)的金色頭發(fā)，罪犯可能是個(gè)女的。
McGraw：女的?她單獨(dú)作案?她有幫兇嗎?
Detective MeGee: 幫兇?沒有，McGraw。她肯定是單獨(dú)作案，看這兒，看粥上面的腳印，還有地板上的這出，腳印告訴我們嫌疑犯很小，很可能是個(gè)孩子。
McGraw：孩子?肯定不是。
Detective MeGee: 我們必須跟蹤線索。
McGraw：證據(jù)不會(huì)說謊，我們來重新想下犯罪的經(jīng)過，嫌疑犯走進(jìn)來，坐在椅子上將最小的碗打碎了，形成了現(xiàn)在的婚禮局面。這些腳印看起來通道樓上。McGraw，你的部下清理過現(xiàn)場(chǎng)了?
Detective MeGee: 樓下沒有人，也許我們忘記檢查樓上了。
McGraw：嘿，怎么有這么多噪聲?我正在樓上睡覺奧。
Detective MeGee: 她在哪兒，抓住她。
