## Official Episode Description

Have you ever looked at a photograph that really made you laugh? Like, why were your eyes so red and what the hell was on Joey’s head? That’s precisely what Claudia and her friends in the Baby-Sitter’s Club did this week, except instead of red eyes, it was red hands! Because they caught someone stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars red-handed! And instead of wondering what what the hell is on Joey’s head, they’re wondering if head’s will role when the Stoneybrook PD finally catches up to the bank heist bandit. Also, Tanner has a kid now, which is pretty exciting. Sorry about all the Dad Talk™.

## Segments

###  Burn Of The Week

A very good burn
That stings you so right
A knife that doth turn.
It gets in your head
But oh so soon:
It will cause me to call
The burn unit.
—inspired by "The Sick Rose" by William Blake

Both caught a burn on Baroness Orksey, The Scarlet Pimpernel. Jack loved it, Tanner never read it.

Jack: Janine's burn, being condescending.

###  Guessing the Mystery

New song to the tune of Building a Mystery by Sarah McLachlan by Baby Bee Liz

Jack guessed correctly. Tanner guessed incorrectly.

###  Jack and Tanner, Fashion Idiots

Claudia steals things from a man, it may be Tanner.

Tie-dyed silk ties, tuxes, suits.

## Theories

"I'd rather watch bread get stale." Claudia's comment about Janine making a sentient AI.
