(music plays)

A boy pops up wearing cowboy clothes. He has wavy black hair.

A caption reads "Ranger Dalmar."

Then, a girl pops out of a barrel wearing a cowboy hat. She has curly brown hair. She winks an eye.

A caption reads "Ranger Kara."

Now another boy pops out of a saloon wearing ranger clothes. He has short blond hair.

A caption reads "Ranger Drew."

Now a woman with a white dress sits in a bookshop reading.

A caption reads "Miss Bookworth."

Now a woman and two bandits sit inside a room.

A caption reads "The Mayor McNab, Pinky and Giggles."

Now a man dances crazily as he laughs.

A caption reads "Cookie."

A sign in old Western style with a star on top, reads "The reading rangers."

The sign leaves a brand on a wooden wall.

Ranger Kara, Ranger Dalmar, Ranger Drew, and Mayor McNab appear on screen sitting around a campfire at night in the desert.

Ranger Drew says THIS IS THE STORY OF
SCENTLOCK HOLMES,
THE WORLD'S GREATEST
SMELLING DETECTIVE.

Ranger Dalmar says WHY DO WE WANT TO HEAR A
STORY ABOUT A DETECTIVE
WHO SMELLS GOOD?

Ranger Drew says NO, SCENTLOCK HOLMES
IS A DETECTIVE
WHO USES HIS KEEN SENSE
OF SMELL TO SOLVE CRIMES.

Scentlock Holmes appears on screen standing in Docville Inn with a large magnifying glass and a trench coat.

Ranger Drew says HIS NOSE ALWAYS KNOWS.

Ranger Dalmar says WHAT, HIS NOSE
ALWAYS NOSE?
HOW MANY NOSES DOES
THIS GUY HAVE?

Back by the campfire, Ranger Drew says JUST ONE.
NOSE
AND
KNOWS
ARE
HOMOPHONES,
WORDS THAT SOUND THE
SAME BUT HAVE DIFFERENT
MEANINGS AND SPELLINGS.
HOMOPHONES LIKE 'NOSE', THE
THING THAT YOU SMELL WITH,
OR 'KNOWS', THE KNOWLEDGE
THAT YOU HAVE.
THE CASE OF THE
MISSING MUSTARD.

Now Ranger Kara appears on screen with Scentlock Holmes.

Ranger Kara says I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT
HAPPENED TO THAT MUSTARD.
[sniffing]

Scentlock says IT WAS TAKEN BY A
BANDIT WHO'S 5-FOOT-3
AND RODE IN ON AN
ARABIAN STALLION.
AND JUDGING... BY THE
SWEET SMELL OF THE MUD
ON ITS HOOVES, CAME FROM THE
NEARBY TOWN OF TWIN CACTUS.

Ranger Kara says SO WHERE CAN WE FIND
THIS MUSTARD BANDIT?

Scentlock says HE'S SITTING...
RIGHT THERE!

Ranger Kara says AMAZING!

Back by the campfire, Ranger Dalmar says WOW, HIS NOSE
REALLY KNOWS.

Ranger Drew says THAT'S RIGHT.
HE COULD SOLVE
ALMOST ANY MYSTERY
JUST BY SMELLING THE
CLUES AT THE CRIME SCENE.

Back at the Inn, Ranger Kara says MY HAT.
WHO TOOK MY HAT?
[sniffing]

Scentlock appears on screen and says NOBODY.
IT'S ON TOP
OF YOUR HEAD.

Ranger Kara says OH!
HIS NOSE
ALWAYS KNOWS.
HMM.

Back by the campfire, Ranger Drew says WHEN ALL THE BOOKS AT THE
DOCVILLE LIBRARY WENT MISSING
EVERYONE SUSPECTED THE MAYOR.

Mayor McNab says BUT NO ONE COULD
PROVE ANYTHING.

Ranger Drew says THEY ALL KNEW THERE
WAS ONE PERSON
WHO COULD PUT ALL
THE CLUES TOGETHER.
SCENTLOCK HOLMES!
EXCEPT FOR WHEN HE WENT IN
TO INVESTIGATE THE MAYOR...
HE HAD A TERRIBLE COLD.
THE ONLY THING HIS NOSE
KNEW HOW TO DO WAS RUN.
[sneezing]

Now Scentlock stands in the Mayor?s office and Mayor McNab says WHAT'S THE MATTER?
DOES THE DETECTIVE
HAVE THE SNIFFLES?

Scentlock says I WILL HAVE YOU
KNOW, MAYOR McNAB,
THAT MY POWERS OF
DEDUCTION GO WELL BEYOND
MY KEEN SENSE OF SMELL.

Mayor McNab says OH, REALLY?

Scentlock says YES.
JUDGING BY THE PAPER CUTS ON
YOUR FINGERS, I WOULD SAY
YOU'VE BEEN HANDLING A
LOT OF BOOKS LATELY.
ACHOO!

Mayor McNab says WELL, I DO LOVE
TO READ.
[sneezing]

Pinky appears in the office and sneezes.

Scentlock says YES, BUT
HE
IS NOT SNEEZING
FROM A COLD, LIKE I AM.
NO, HE IS SNEEZING
FROM A DUST ALLERGY.
THAT CAN BE BROUGHT ON
BY HANDLING A LARGE
PILE OF OLD BOOKS... LIKE
YOU WOULD FIND IN A LIBRARY.

Pinky says SAY, DETECTIVE, MAYBE I
JUST WENT THERE TO READ.

Scentlock says AHA!
BUT I FINALLY DE...
DEDUCED THAT THIS CHAIR
DOES NOT FIT IN WITH THE
DECOR OF YOUR OFFICE.
WHICH MEANS IT MUST
BE HIDING SOMETHING.

Scentlock reveals the sack of books and says AHA!

Pinky says WHAT?
THAT'S AMAZING!
HIS NOSE ISN'T THE
ONLY THING THAT KNOWS.
HE KNOWS TOO.

Back by the campfire, Ranger Drew says ANOTHER CASE SOLVED BY THE
INCREDIBLE SCENTLOCK HOLMES.
WELL, I GUESS WHEN YOUR
NOSE ALWAYS KNOWS
THE REST OF YOU GETS
TO BE PRETTY GOOD, TOO.
ELEMENTARY, MY DEAR
RANGER DALMAR.
ELEMENTARY.
HEY, DO YOU GUYS
SMELL THAT?

The TVO Kids logo appears on the wooden wall.
