Host: "So remember, we're looking for Top Grunge and trying to get back that Sitar, so most importantly, ACME Budnet has just provided all of us with a telephone conversation between Top Grunge and Carmen Sandiego, listen very carefully."
Top Grunge: (on the telephone) "This Sitar is very noisy, Carmen."
Carmen Sandiego: (on the other telephone) "Never mind that right now, those ACME agents are gaining up on you, head for a group of Denmark Islands in the South Atlantic."
Top Grunge: (on the telephone) "Well, I'm a bit hungry."
Carmen Sandiego: (on the other telephone) "Well, I think you're in luck, these North Atlantic islands are full of fresh fish and seafood dinners."
Top Grunge: (on the telephone) "Seafood dinners? that sounds real good and tasty."
Carmen Sandiego: (on the other telephone) "Those Gumshoes are gonna make a dinner meal outta you if you don't hurry up and get going."

Sean Barry and Scott: Top Grunge, in jail
Host: "Nice job, alright, we're gonna talk about your next journey quest in just 1 little bit, you tracked Top Grunge all the way here, we've got something very good for you, hey, Chief."
===Back in the Chief's office===
Chief: "When you get on the road and you say the right words: </nowiki>The fastest way to find it is to use a magnifying glass like this 1, and oh, congratulations, Gumshoes."
===Back to the Host and Gumshoe # 3===
Host: "Alright, now (Gumshoe's 1st name), you don't know where you're gonna go yet, but you got the loot, the warrant and the crook, so now you got a pen and some note paper, and you can just write down the name of the place."
Gumshoe # 3 begins writing down the name of the place he's gonna go.
Host: "Alright, nice job, now all we need to do is figure out where Carmen Sandiego is right now, and furthermore, [Telephone Ringing] you get another telephone call, and I'm gonna pick up the telephone here and-"
Host: (on the telephone) "Hello? yes, he's right here."

Chief: "(Host's 1st Name), let's go to the map."
===Back to the Host and Gumshoe # 3 on the map===
Host: "So, (Gumshoe's 1st name), you know what this is all about, don't you?"
Gumshoe # 3: "Yes, of course I do."
Host: "It's about the end game where you need to identify 8 different South American countries in 99 2nds with the marker, when you're absolutely right, you'll hear this sound, [Fire Truck Siren Wailing] and if you're wrong, you'll hear this sound [Failure Buzzer Sounds], now, come on, (Gumshoe's 1st name), we're gonna do this for 99 2nds on the clock, you've got all of your good friends to cheer you on, good luck, on your mark, get ready, get set, go."
Gumshoe # 3 begins moving around the entire map.
