## Transcript

Betty: Yoo Hoo, Over here.

Betty: Where is your mother?

Amelia: I think she'd gone on a, um, surprise vacation.

Betty: Oh dear. She promised to make party treats for my grandson's birthday.

Kate: Mommy makes things, too!

Amelia: They're not as good as Mom's, but I *can* bake cookies, cakes and pies.

Amelia: Don't worry, Betty, **we'll make your treats!**

Amelia: Uncle Sven! It's good to see you.

Sven: Are you serving customers? It seems very unsafe here.

Amelia: Don't worry! Some, um, nice firefighters gave us the all clear.

Sven: It still looks dangerous.

Sven: I have an idea! I can help you rebuild the cafe.

Amelia: That would be great, thank you!

Amelia: Let's start by building a takeaway counter for my new customers.

Amelia: When Mom comes back, everything will be fixed up and the cafe will look amazing!

Sven: We will have to work hard, but I think you are right.

Sven: We should really fix this unsafe flooring.

Amelia: Let's go! All hands on deck!

Sven: Do you really think that my sister is on vacation?

Amelia: Well, her passport and suitcase were gone...

Sven: But she left her cellphone, and did not tell us anything!

Amelia: I know! Ugh, I've been deluding myself.

Amelia: I have an idea! I've seen every episode of 'The Mysteries of Miguel.'

Amelia: I'll take inspiration from Miguel to investigate Mom's disappearance.

Sven: We can rebuild as you investigate!

Amelia: Sorry, Betty, we need you to move so we can build new seats!

Betty: Of course, dearie.

Betty: I must say, it's nice to be back here. It's looking better already.

Kate: It's pretty here now!

Amelia: Your Uncle Sven is a master craftsman!

Sven: I should have helped my sister with the cafe in the past.

Amelia: Well, I'm glad you're helping me now. There's loads to do!

Sven: I will go home to get more materials for us.

Eve: Hey. I'm Eve. I'm a reporter for the **Appleton Times.**

Amelia: Ooh, do you want to write a story about me reopening the cafe?

Amelia: I'm Amelia! This place has been in my family for 150 years, and--

Eve: No - I want the scoop on why Freya **set the fire** and ran away.

Amelia: My Mom is NOT a pyromaniac!

Eve: Sure, and I'm not an ace reporter.

Amelia: The fire was an accident and Mom's on vacation.

Amelia: That's all I'm going to say.

Eve: Suit yourself - but I'll be back! I always get my story.

Kate: Mommy, there's a monster in the garden!

Amelia: Oh, Kate, you're so funny! Come on, let's plant some shrubs...

Kate: BOO!

Yuka: Argh!

Amelia: That's not a monster, it's an old friend!

Amelia: Yuka, are you hiding from me?

Yuka: Yes, because you're not going to like the reason I'm here...

Yuka: I think Eve is right. I think your mom started the fire.

Amelia: She wouldn't do that!

Yuka: I think someone **made** Freya do it, and then she ran away.

Amelia: What?! Who?

Amelia: You're in here - and Uncle Sven? And, um, **my high school ex**?!

Yuka: You can't trust anyone, Amelia.

Betty: Excuse me, dearie, but is my order ready yet?

Amelia: No, but I'll finish it now!

Amelia: We finished your party food, Betty!

Betty: I'll tell everyone your mom's cafe is back open and looks wonderful.

Sven: And I will keep rebuilding it with you.

Amelia: I also need to find Mom AND prove she didn't start the fire!

Amelia: But using Miguel's methods, I'll prove her innocence.

Amelia: For now, I'm gonna let the whole town know we're back in business!
