00:22An explosive situation has arisen at the Redondo,
00:44a secluded resort where the rich and famous go to be beautified and indulged in total privacy.
00:49Someone there has been planting bombs, and although so far they've done relatively little harm,
00:55and the manager of the resort has fooled people into thinking they're just construction accidents,
01:00I've been charged with finding out what's really going on.
01:04When she heard where I was going, my good friend George Fane insisted I bring along her latest invention,
01:09a handheld bomb-sniffing device.
01:12It's never been tested in the field, but it's designed to detect components commonly used in detonators,
01:17and she's almost positive it will work.
01:19I'm not crazy about the almost part, but it's got to be better than nothing, right?
01:24And as my other good friend Bess Marvin was quick to point out, the thing practically fits in my purse.
01:29So now that I'm pretty much prepared for anything, looks like I'm off to the Redondo.
01:33Welcome to the Redondo. You must be Nancy Drew.
01:40I'm Cassidy Jones. Mr. Bleski is waiting for you in there. You can go right in.
01:45On second thought, why don't you help me get organized around here?
01:50It'll help you get the hang of things.
01:52I can do that, sure.
01:53I can do that, sure.
01:54I know you and!!
01:55When it comes, I can do that.
01:57I think he should keep crossing the building in the graveyard.
01:58I know...
01:59Yeah annoying.
02:00What was that?
02:03I'm reasonable to leave 4 Thames, you have ainterpreted and asking that...
02:05Oh!
02:06Since there is, is mine?
02:07Oh!
02:08I'm desperately digging, but I like to do that...
02:09Your troubled literally doesn't take advantage of rigidity.
02:11Viewers set up
02:18That took us through an awful lot of foliage.
02:22How do we not tend to turn,
02:23Let's go.
02:53Let's go.
03:23Let's go.
03:53There's something in that harmonica.
04:10I wonder what it is.
04:12Let's go.
04:42I wonder who this Hippocrates person is.
04:46That should do it.
04:59Cassidy, do you know who Hippocrates Bell is?
05:16Ah, he would be the original owner of this place.
05:20Of course, back then, the Redondo wasn't a spa.
05:23It was a private mansion.
05:25I hear it was a bit eccentric.
05:29I see.
05:30Well, I finished that list you had for me.
05:33Great job.
05:34Our boss awaits through that door.
05:37No, forget it.
05:41Look, Princess Mia, those are our rates.
05:43If you think they're too high, then frankly, maybe you'd be happier slipping into a nice hot mud bath somewhere else.
05:49Hello?
05:50Thanks for wasting my time, tightwad.
05:53Nancy Drew, good.
05:56You know why you're here, right?
05:58Of course.
05:59You want me to...
06:00Of course.
06:13You want me to investigate the bombings.
06:15Shh.
06:16Do not use that word.
06:18You're here to investigate the construction accidents.
06:22Our guests hear construction, they shrug it off.
06:25They hear that other word, they get upset.
06:28But these people are millionaires who come here to get pampered, not upset.
06:33The good news is, with that hair of yours, those clothes, that makeup, you'll fit right in.
06:37You really think so?
06:39Yeah.
06:40Everybody's going to assume you're the new gopher.
06:42You know, go for this, go for that.
06:43The new general assistant.
06:45Oh.
06:46No, that's good.
06:47That way no one will suspect you're really a detective who's an expert at defusing bombs.
06:51Uh, I'm not sure who told you that, but...
06:54Of course.
06:54That also means you can't go around bothering people.
06:57And, if somebody asks you to do something, you're going to have to do it.
07:01No questions asked.
07:03Sorry to interrupt, Mr. Bleski, but I'm afraid I've got some towels that need folding.
07:09Oh, great.
07:10Another one.
07:12Well, you got here just in time.
07:14Would you like me to...
07:16Would you like me to help fold towels?
07:24Folding towels is a code.
07:27It means someone's found a note saying where a bomb's been hidden and turned it into reception.
07:34Shoot.
07:34Look, I've got to take this call.
07:36Go on back out there.
07:37Cassidy will explain everything and get you started.
07:39Go on.
07:40Go.
07:41Nick Bleski.
07:42See, each bomb has been preceded by a note.
07:48The very first note said that it contained the location of the bomb that was about to go off.
07:53Unfortunately, the rest of that note, and each of the other notes that followed, was in some kind of totally indecipherable code.
08:00However, I'm sure you, detective that you are, will be able to decipher it, determine where the bomb is, and defuse it before it goes off with no problem.
08:11Well, I can sure try, but...
08:13Fortunately, the bombs aren't lethal.
08:15Truly annoying, yes, but truly dangerous, no.
08:19Apparently, our mad bomber just wants to torment us.
08:24Here's a map so you can find your way around the spa.
08:26And here's the note.
08:38Decipher it, and you'll be on your way.
08:56Decipher it, and you'll be on your way.
09:26Decipher it, and you'll be on your way.
09:56Decipher it, and you'll be on your way.
11:32Vines.
11:33Wonder what that means.
11:35Maybe I should look at the resort map.
11:37Yes, that must be the room where the next bomb is planted.
11:50I hear someone.
12:01Who's there?
12:03Mr. Mingles, is that you?
12:05Speak.
12:06Uh, no.
12:07I'm Nancy, the new...
12:11I'm the new general assistant.
12:21And you are...
12:22Just call me Mrs. Montague.
12:25Now quickly, scratch the left side of my nose before I go absolutely insane.
12:31Hurry.
12:38Ah, wonderful.
12:40Now get me a cup of lime sherbet.
12:42Two scoops with a sprinkling of citron zest and one cinnamon stick.
12:46And a spoon, of course.
12:47Silver, not plastic.
12:49And don't plan on going anywhere for a while.
12:51As you can see, you're going to be the one operating the spoon.
12:54Actually, I kind of need to do something else right now.
12:57Do something else?
12:59Really?
13:00Like what?
13:01Get fired like the last alleged assistant Bleski sicked on me?
13:05Keep this up and that can easily be arranged.
13:07Lame sherbet, did you say?
13:09On second thought, forget the sherbet.
13:12I'm chilled enough as it is.
13:14The hot water for this bath doesn't seem to be working.
13:16Find out why and fix it.
13:18Before my gloriously flawless skin becomes a hideous landscape of...
13:23Goosebumps.
13:27This bath has become unacceptably tepid.
13:38You simply must turn up the heat.
13:57Ah, the mud is warm again.
14:09Much better.
14:11Before I got in the tub, I noticed that a plant over there was dying.
14:14Please do something about it.
14:16The poor thing's struggle to live is draining the energy from this room in a most unpleasant way.
14:21Ah, you've revived the plant.
14:29I can tell.
14:30I can feel the energy returning to the room already.
14:34Please, check the latest Tinseltown tabler and give me the gist of Lydia Lynn's column.
14:38That woman is so deliciously catty.
14:42Hmm.
14:47Lydia's column suggests that Jasmine Ivy came to the Redondo for a little plastic surgery.
14:52I suspect it as much myself.
14:55Not that there's anything wrong with a judicious touch-up now and then.
14:58Brew me a cup of my special anti-aging tea and brew it correctly or you'll soon...
15:03Aha!
15:16Tea making instructions.
15:27...
15:31...
15:31Let's go.
16:01Done with the tea?
16:24Very good.
16:27Okay, she's asleep.
16:29Time to look for that bomb.
16:31Here we go.
17:01Here we go.
17:03This looks promising.
17:04Here we go.
17:06Here we go.
17:08Here we go.
17:09Here we go.
17:11Here we go.
17:13Here we go.
17:14Here we go.
17:15Here we go.
17:17Here we go.
17:18Here we go.
17:19Here we go.
17:21Here't we go.
17:27Here we go.
17:29Here we go.
17:31Here we go.
17:33So, I'm going to go ahead and do it.
18:03It looks like some green goo is dripping in the air.
18:33I guess that explains the sticky situation the Mad Bomber's note referred to.
18:43Mr. Mingles, are you there?
18:46Mr. Mingles, I insist you drop whatever it is you're doing and answer me. Speak.
18:52Um, there's nobody here but me, Mrs. Montague.
18:55Well then, don't just stand there. Find Mr. Mingles. Look in the salon. He's hopelessly attracted to the smell of hair.
19:02He likes the smell of hair?
19:05Just make sure he doesn't have any in his mouth before you grab him or he might swallow it.
19:09Uh, is Mr. Mingles by any chance?
19:20Is Mr. Mingles a dog?
19:22Of course he's a dog, you ninny. An award-winning, impossibly adorable Pomeranian.
