00:00Mr. Perry was at a company meeting when suddenly all the lights went off due to a blackout.

00:06When they came back on, Mr. Perry's valuable pen was missing.

00:10He asked his colleagues what they were doing in the dark.

00:13John said he was replying to his emails.

00:16Tom claimed he was looking for a flashlight in his bag.

00:19Lisa said she was just sitting still, waiting for the lights.

00:23Mr. Perry quickly figured out who the liar was.

00:26Can you?

00:30It was John.

00:35His claim of replying to emails on his laptop doesn't make sense because the power outage would have affected the Wi-Fi.

00:44Somebody had been ruining the famous paintings at the city museum.

00:48Detective Harris received a tip that the vandal, known for wearing disguises, would strike again tonight.

00:54At the museum, he spotted three individuals acting oddly.

00:58Can you help him identify the person damaging the artworks?

01:10The first person might be holding a paintbrush, but its bristles are clean.

01:15The second person has paint on her shoes, but it's just a designer pattern.

01:19The third person, however, has fresh paint on their gloves.

01:23That's the vandal!

01:27Mrs. Parker lost her precious necklace at the community fair.

01:31She remembers three women bumping into her around the time it disappeared.

01:35Can you figure out who took it?

01:37The first woman has a small envelope-style clutch bag.

01:49It looks too thin to hold anything bulky like a necklace.

01:53The second woman has a full shopping bag, but it's transparent and there's no necklace inside.

01:58The third woman has a scarf tied loosely around her neck, but there's something shiny beneath it.

02:05That's where the necklace must be!

02:08At the town bake sale, a delicious chocolate cake decorated with cherries disappeared.

02:14When the guards checked the security footage, they spotted three bakers who were near the cake last.

02:20Take a look at them all.

02:22Can you tell who swiped the cake?

02:32Baker 1 has frosting on their apron, but it's vanilla, so it can't be him.

02:38Baker 2's apron has cherry-colored smudges on it, but look at his display.

02:43He's selling cherry cupcakes, so those smudges must be the result of that.

02:47Baker 3 has a large, empty cake carrier hidden under his cake display and chocolate fingerprints on the corner of the glass.

02:56That's the cake thief!

02:58The International Detective Agency was searching for Annabelle Lee, a robber who stole $100 million from a bank.

03:07One of the detectives got an anonymous call that she was going to be at the airport.

03:12So, he rushed there and spotted three suspicious-looking ladies.

03:16Can you help him catch the real Annabelle Lee?

03:29Check out the wanted poster of Annabelle Lee here on the alerts board.

03:33She has a beauty mark on her left cheek, but the first lady's beauty mark is on her right cheek, so she can't be her.

03:40And even though the second lady has the same hair color, she has no beauty mark.

03:45So, the real Annabelle Lee is the third lady.

03:48The beauty mark is on the correct cheek.

03:50She just dyed her hair.

03:52It was Lily's first day of internship, and she was going to work at the lab of a famous scientist.

04:00During an experiment, she accidentally pressed a wrong button, which suddenly opened a vortex that transported her to a mystical maze.

04:08There were three paths she could take to escape.

04:11The first path was covered in flames.

04:13The second path had a deep, unending pit.

04:16And the third path was a narrow corridor with swinging axes.

04:20Which one should she choose?

04:29Lily should choose the third path with the swinging axes.

04:32Do you see the small, hidden button on the wall at the entrance of the corridor?

04:37It says, stop axes on it.

04:39By pressing the button, she can deactivate the swinging axes long enough to make her way through the corridor without harm.

04:49Mr. Barnabas was the CEO of a big company.

04:53One day, his employees came to his office to ask for sick leave.

04:57Eliza said she was having stomach issues.

05:00And Richard said his broken arm was giving him a hard time when using his computer.

05:04Mr. Barnabas immediately realized that one of them was lying.

05:10Can you?

05:19It's Richard.

05:20His cell phone is in his right pocket.

05:22He would have to use his broken arm to put it in there.

05:26Mrs. Penny's prized roses in her garden were mysteriously pruned overnight.

05:32She suspected one of her neighbors.

05:34Take a look at them up.

05:36Can you help Miss Penny find out who did it?

05:45The first neighbor might be wearing his gardening gloves, but they're spotless.

05:50So he must have just put them on.

05:52The second neighbor is holding a pair of shears,

05:55but they look so rusty that she couldn't have used them to cut all those roses.

05:59The third neighbor, however, has freshly cut rose stems in their compost bin.

06:05That's our rose pruner.

06:08Jason was working on his laptop at the college library.

06:11He went out to get some snacks, but when he came back, his laptop was gone.

06:16There were three different students with him in the library.

06:19Can you help Jason figure out who took his laptop?

06:21Student 2 here is wearing a big bulky jacket,

06:33even though he's indoors and the weather outside looks warm and sunny from the window.

06:38That's suspicious.

06:39Three campers were sitting around the campfire, enjoying their s'mores.

06:48However, when they realized that there's only one s'more left, they started arguing.

06:53Camp counselor Mr. Harris decided to put an end to their argument by saying,

06:57Whoever can answer my riddle correctly will get this last s'more.

07:02The more of this there is, the less you see.

07:05What is it?

07:14The correct answer is darkness.

07:18Mr. Nelson was the owner of a pet supply store.

07:21One day, one of the luxury gourmet dog treats he was selling in his store got stolen.

07:28The police officer visited the houses of his last three customers,

07:32Maria, Edward, and Arthur.

07:34Can you help the officer figure out who's the treat thief?

07:46Take a look at this pet portrait Maria has on the wall.

07:49She has a cat, so there's no reason she would steal dog treats.

07:54And look at the dog food package Arthur has next to the door.

07:58On the package, it says,

07:59Strict diet food for allergic dogs.

08:02That can only mean his dog couldn't eat the gourmet treats anyway.

08:07Then, it must be Edward who stole them.

08:13Every day, Mrs. Johnson visited the park to feed the birds.

08:17One day, she spotted a young mother and her sweet baby playing.

08:21She couldn't help but wonder who the father of the baby was,

08:24but she didn't want to ask the mother about it since she thought it would be rude.

08:28She noticed three men who were all at the park at the same time.

08:32Can you help her figure out who Elisa's husband is?

08:35Take a look at the second guy.

08:45His eyes are green just like the baby, so he must be the father.

08:51Blair, Chuck, and Serena were all flying to their holiday destination on a private jet.

08:57However, during their plane ride,

08:58one of the engines failed and all the passengers had to evacuate.

09:02Who is least likely to land safely?

09:12Both Blair and Chuck have parachutes in their backpacks.

09:16See the pins here?

09:18But look at Serena's bag.

09:19It doesn't have a parachute pin.

09:21Barney was scuba diving with his friend, Amy.

09:26When they finally reached the coral reefs,

09:28Barney noticed that this was actually a dream.

09:32Can you spot the three oddities which made him think so?

09:43Firstly, take a look at Amy's scuba tank.

09:45It's not a tank.

09:47It's a big plastic bottle.

09:48She can't be diving with that.

09:50Secondly, do you see the SOS writing on the sand?

09:54It's not possible to write anything underwater.

09:57And lastly, check out this cute dolphin.

10:00It doesn't have any fins.

10:03That's it for today.
