Listen up, Crimebusters.

Acme needs your help.

In our last clue-filled episode,

Zack and Ivy infiltrated Carmen's top secret

training facility.

Just when they were about to shut her down for good,

she gave them the big slip.

I gave them a brand new ACME chrono-skimmer

piggy-backed onto her ion trail,

heading off after her somewhere in time!

Don't ask me, 'cause I don't know where.

But, hit "enter" and let's go find out what they're up to.

[growl]

[machine whirring]

Geographical location, degrees north,

degrees west.

The year A.D.

A perfect chrono landing.

Ah! Research always pays off.

Security right where I expected.

[rumbling]

Hmm... But I didn't expect this.

Three minutes.

Go!

seconds till the cam-box swings back around.

Retractor.

We get back in the duct, spring the release,

and this box flies right up into our hands.

Then we're gone before the guards hear the first blast

of the alarm.

Not bad for amateurs.

Who are you?

The competition.

Huh!? [alarm beeping]

Freeze! Let's get out of here!

Stop, thieves!

Let me go!

Ahhh!

I'm Carmen Sandiego.

I'm a private detective, and I've been on these crooks'

trail for a month!

Thank goodness I stopped them from getting this, Sergeant.

It's only the most important scientific

achievement of the millennium.

The world owes you a vote of gratitude, Miss Sandiego.

This is to be unveiled at the opening of the

World's Fair, tomorrow.

Who knows what use some ingenious thief might find

for it if they ever got their hands on it.

Yes.

Who knows indeed.

[beep] Whoa!

According to the Chrono-Skimmer,

we're in the year , Ivy!

Well, by the looks of Times Square I'd say it's right,

little bro.

The World's Fair is opening tomorrow in Africa's

Famed Ivory Coast.

Exhibits will show off the finest the world has to

offer in the arenas of-

We interrupt this commercial message to bring you

an important Global News Update.

Tonight at a top secret United Nations Facility in

Central America, one heroic world citizen stopped what

could have been the biggest theft of the nd century.

Ivy, Carmen must be involved.

I'm just glad I could help.

Any good citizen would have done the same, I 'm sure.

She's here!

And she's a heroine!

[gasp]

We've got to call the Chief!

What's happening, Zack?!

Looks like the future Acme uses our communications

frequency for their C-Fiiiiive!

Whoa!

It says this is Acme, but where's the screen,

the keyboard?

Never mind that.

Where's the Chief?

Who dares invoke the name of the great and powerful Chief!

[laughing]

Guess he didn't mellow with age.

Ooh, I just love the new effects membrane they

installed last week.

I can answer anything!

Pick a topic any topic!

Say Dinosaurs.

Did you say Dinosaursl?

Whoa! Chieeeeef!

Holographs give a whole new meaning to the word

interactive, huh?

Kind of like Jurassic Park the Home Game.

Hey!

You're not Acme Agents!

What are you talking about?

It's us, Chief.

Ivy and Zack.

Ivy-Zack-Ivy-Zack-Ivy-Zack, uh Nope.

There's no Ivy Zack team on Acme's active roster.

You're Acme imposters!

Security!

[sirens]

Wait! Chief, you've got to believe us.

We're Acme agents from the th century.

We time traveled here with the Chrono-Skimmer.

Hmmm I have heard rumors that Acme experimented with

time travel once, but the project proved muy dangeroso.

Because Carmen Sandiego stole our technology and used it.

Or is using it to pull off some major crime now

in the future here!

Wait! Wait! I remember.

That persistence that that "won't go away sensibility"

Yes, yes, yes, you were - No, wait!

That was a computer virus I picked up once. Sorry.

Chief, access the Acme personnel files from the th century.

We're there. The cases we solved.

The times we almost nabbed her.

Nope, nuh-uh, negatory, no can do.

My memory banks are cleared out and put in storage every

years.

Do you realize the red tape involved if I were to -

Well, there must be some record of us somewhere!

I'll ask around the water cooler,

but if nobody's heard of you - Youurrre out!

And don't play with the computer!

Yeah. What computer?

Computer: Acme Central Servier on-line!

Cool.

Computer: Cool.

Cool. A one syllable word meaning moderately cold.

Lacking warmth.

Careful what you ask it for, little bro.

You might get it.

Give us up-to-the-minute news info on citizen

Carmen Sandiego.

And k*ll the special effects mode before it kills us.

Computer: World Citizen and heroine,

Carmen Sandiego, arrived tonight at the Hotel

Millennium in Moscow, Russia.

It's ironic. To become the greatest thief in the future,

I'll have to wipe out my past.

Computer, on.

There's work to be done.

It's all just minor news bites, Ive.

Server, access old news clips of Carmen Sandiego

stored in the Library of Congress in Washington D.C.

Pay dirt!

[beeping]

What's happening?

Oh no! She's deleting her past so no one can trace her!

Chief!

Chief, hurry!

You saw it, didn't you Chief?

It, that, you know, that could have been anything!

I don't know.

Ah, but I did find this.

Time for an Acme garage sale!

Huh?

Our Detectives of the Decade Award!

That proves we existed!

Now, we need to know what was in that top secret box

Carmen had her hands on in Central America.

Chief?

Not so fast.

That's top secret! Whoa! I can't tell you that.

This only proves that A Zack and Ivy once existed.

Not that you two are Zack and Ivy.

Let's forget him, Zack.

Carmen's in Russia and we've got to figure out what she's

up to, with or without Acme's help.

Now, that's what I call spunk, moxie, guts.

You know, you two might make a couple of good gumshoes.

But you're gonna have to start at the bottom.

Huh!?

Like on a real unimportant case?

Uhm. Right.

Like one that everyone thinks isn't really a case at all?

Yeah.

Like proving Carmen Sandiego is a zero, not a hero?

We'll take it.

Yeah, but wait -

Crank up the C-Five and get us to

the Hotel Millennium in Moscow.

That, uh, wasn't what I had in mind.

We're gonna prove we're the best operatives Acme ever had!

I hope I don't live to regret this.

Chief: Against my better judgement,

you two are off to Russia, the largest country in the world.

At over six and a half million square miles

it spans both the continents of Europe and Asia.

The place is big enough for you to get into lots of trouble.

So don't!

And check this out, blade warriors.

Russia has the largest continuous coastline

in the world.

Hockey anyone?

A big part of these coastal waters are frozen for many

months of the year.

Bad for shipping. Good for - Whoaaa slippiiiing!

Ooh! [crash]

Ivy: Ooh, Tchaikovsky! I love his music, Chief!

That's the Overture.

♪ [ Overture] Chief: Yup.

One of those most famous composers of the th

century was Russian born and bred.

And though he probably never wore a tutu,

Tchaikovsky did write musical scores for the

ballets Swan Lake, Sleeping Beauty and everybody's

Christmas favorite, The Nutcracker.

Yo Pete, buddy, Pete, easy!

[crash]

Whoaaa!

Whooooa!

A hundred years, Ivy!

You'd think Acme could have fixed the C-Five landing

mechanism in a hundred years!

[speaking Russian]

[speaking Russian]

Wah!

We better stay out of trouble or the Chief'll never

believe we are who we say!

[siren] Huh? -What?

Uh-oh! -Let's go!!

[speaking Russian]

Huh?!

Incoming!!

Chief:

Chief:

[sirens]

Look out!

That's Carmen's hotel.

Come on!

[speaking Russian]

[speaking Russian]

This way, little bro!

[sirens continue]

[speaking Russian]

[siren]

[gasp]

Whew!

That was close!

Come on, we're not in the clear yet.

This is Carmen's hotel.

We've got to find which room.

[speaking Russian]

That's it!

I'l hit the door and go in high.

You go low and cuff her.

Then Chrono-Skim us home!

Ready?

Go!

Hiyaaaa!

Yah!

Ivy!!!

Nooooo!

Carmen!

[grunts]

It was just a dummy.

Whoaaa! -Whoa!

Ivy!

[speaking Russian]

Arrested?! Arrested?!

I think I speak for all the Players on-line when I say

that with a little effort, you two could probably

discredit Acme worldwide!

Chief, I swear, there was a dummy in her room.

The real Ivy and Zack, whoever they were,

were Detectives of the Decade!

They would never have screwed up like this!

Yeesh! He sure blew a gasket.

Yeah.

But I think it was more at you than it was at me.

I mean, is it just me, or do you keep getting the feeling

he really sorta likes me for some reason and I--

Zack? -Yeah?

Stuff a sock in it.

Zack: Okay let's try putting the pieces together one more time.

Ivy: I say Carmen arrived in the future and accidentally

became a heroine when she interrupted those crooks in

that high tech facility stealing whatever it was

they were stealing.

And let's suppose she still wants whatever it was they

were stealing.

Then where did she go last night?

Did she pull a heist somewhere here in Moscow

that will help her get whatever was in that silver box?

I sure wish we could access the Player for help.

Hey, Ivy, it's the height of the information age, right?

So?

So, information please.

Ivy: Zack, this is great.

Look at all the free on-line info!

Zack: Information please, on City Crime News.

Uh, list all robberies that took place here in

Moscow last night.

Hmm an electronic bank job, an on-line department store

warehouse, a street corner stick up.

Wait! The Moscow World Museum?

Ivy: Stolen: one antique panther-man costume from a

display on the We Tribe, of Africa's Ivory Coast.

Zack, why do I get the feeling this kind of thing

is right up Carmen's alley?

Chief: Hello. Long distance calling.

Will you accept the charges.

Sorry to break in on your call,

but I thought it was time for a party line!

Because the Acme archives requisition I put in, paid off.

[blows noisemaker]

Whoa! -This is incredible!

Check me out, Ive! -You almost got it!

You look silly.

Yes! Zack and Ivy, large and in charge again!

Chief, now can you tell us what was in that silver box

Carmen's after?

Shh! It's top secret!

Activating the Shield of Silence.

Awesome.

Okay, listen up.

That silver box contained the world's most powerful

electromagnet.

But Chief, what does she want with it,

and what does it have to do with the African panther-man

costume she stole last night?

Chief: Yes, Acme Home Agents,

while Zack and Ivy remain behind the Shield of

Silence, see if you can figure out Where On Earth

is Carmen Sandiego, based on what you already know

about the case.

She's after the world's most powerful electromagnet.

She just stole this panther-man costume.

And if you've been watching closely there's an earlier

clue that should help you deduce what Carmen

could be up to next.

The world owes you a vote of gratitude, Miss Sandiego.

This is to be unveiled at the opening of the World's

Fair, tomorrow.

Zack:

Zack:

Zack, we're supposed to figure out what--

Wait! I've got it! Zack, I've got it!

Carmen wants the electromagnet, right?

Right.

And she stole this panther-man costume.

Which belongs to the We tribe of Africa's Ivory Coast.

So, Africa's Ivory Coast is the same country we heard

mentioned in that news brief back in Times Square.

Back in Times Square-- Wait!

The World's Fair is about to open there today!

Ivy, what do you want to bet that's where they'll unveil

that top secret electromagnet to the world!?

And what do you want to bet Carmen'll be up to

something, using that panther-man costume?

Yes, we have a winner!

Carmen Sandiego is being given the honor of unveiling

the electromagnet today at the opening of the World's Fair.

Did the players at home get this right?

Well, gosh dude, great, you're swell,

I love you more than my own face.

Here's a glowing testimonial write when you get work,

okay, enough of that!

Chief, C-Five us to the Ivory Coast,

on the double!

[speaking Dutch]

[speaking French]

Not again!

How does Carmen stand this!? [sirens]

And now, ladies and gentlemen,

I'd like to present our intrepid Woman of the Year

Carmen Sandiego!

[crowd cheers]

I was glad to stop these thieves from getting their

hands on this miraculous device.

Ivy: Keep your hands off it, Carmen!

She's no heroine, she's the biggest thief in the world!

For a couple of time travelers your timing stinks, detectives.

But I'm sure you good folks won't mind if I take this

for a souvenir.

[blast]

[speaking French]

Where is she?

She can't have gotten very far!

Panther-men!

Just like the costume Carmen stole in Moscow!

She's got to be there!

[speaking French]

About time they got the message.

[speaking French]

They're going to bust us on sight, Ivy.

Look over there!

That could be her.

I bet that's where she stashed her time machine.

We've got to stop her!

Quick, Zack! The Chrono-Skimmer.

Pick up her ion trail!

[speaking French]

Oh not again!

She got away with it, she's off in time!

Yeah, and we're doing time!

Wah!
