EZRA THE CRIME FIGHTING FLY
Ezra the Crime Fighting Fly!
Ezra the Crime Fighting Fly!
[What a mess! What happened here Lieutenant?]
[We're not sure Commissioner. We received a dispatch call about a disturbance outside the Ladybird Bar and got here as fast as we could, but we were too late. We found Ricky the Roach here…squashed on the pavement!]
[Ew! Any witnesses?]
[It's all very confusing Sir. Al the Ant says it was Tommy the Termite. Tommy the Termite says it was Wally the Wasp. Wally the Wasp says it was Buddy the Bee. Buddy the Bee says it was Carlos the Cricket. And Carlos the Cricket says it was Mack the Mosquito]
[I know someone who can get to the bottom of this Lieutenant. Call Ezra the Crime Fighting Fly!]
[Thanks for getting here so quickly Ezra]
[Bzzzz]
[Here's the body. We think Mack the Mosquito did it]
[Bzzzz! BZZZZ!]
[What did he say?]
[He said it's not Mack the Mosquito. He said there's a silver trail leading away from the body and down towards the highway]
[Sammy the Slug!]
[Quick Ezra, he's escaping!]
[Ezra's got him!]
[OK Sammy the Slug, you have the right to remain slimy. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law]
[Ezra, how can we thank you? You've taken yet another dangerous criminal off the streets and back gardens of this town]
[Bzzzz! Bzzzz!]
[He said no problem Commissioner, any time. But right now he says he's got to, uh…]
[He's got to what?]
[He's gotta fly]
