Detective MeGee: Alright,Officer McGraw,Give it to me straight, what are we looking at here?
McGraw: Detective MeGee! We’re glad to see you! We could sure use your expertise on this one. It’s a break-in, but nothing seems to have been stolen. We received a call from the Bear family at around ten thirty this morning. They had gone out for a walk before breakfast and came home to this mess! Broken chairs and porridge all over the place! Apparently, Momma Bear had made the porridge a little too hot, you see, and they were waiting for it to cool down.
Detective MeGee:Okay then, let’s start examining the evidence. . . Have the forensics team been in yet?
McGraw:Yes sir. They found some fingerprints on the bowls and are analyzing them back at the lab as we speak. Hopefully, they will be able to identify the burglar soon.
Detective MeGee: Hmmmm,Ah ha! What’s this? A strand of golden hair. . . this is a very important piece of trace evidence ，McGraw. It tells me the suspect has long golden hair. . . very few men have long golden hair... our criminal could be a woman...
McGraw: A woman? Was she working alone? Did she have an accomplice?
Detective MeGee: An accomplice? No, no .McGraw, she was definitely working alone. See here, there are footprints in the porridge, here on the floor... footprints, tells me that our suspect is small. . . could possibly be a child.
McGraw: A child? Surely not, sir. . .
Detective MeGee: We must follow the clues, McGraw! The evidence doesn’t lie! Now, let’s reconstruct the crime. . . the suspect came in, sat in each chair breaking the smallest one into little pieces. Next, the porridge. she obviously tried to eat it and because it was so hot, she dropped it on the floor. . . . this mess.interesting. These footprints seem to lead upstairs. McGraw, did your officers clear the scene?
McGraw: Well, there was no one down here. . . and maybe we forget to check upstairs.
Goldylocks: Hey! What’s with all the noise? I’m trying to sleep up here!
Detective MeGee: There she is! Get her!
Give it to me straight 直截了当地，如实告诉。

Detective MeGee: McGraw，请你直接说，我们在这儿寻找什么？
McGraw：MeGee侦探，很高兴看见你。我们一定能用到你的经验。这是入室偷窃，但是看起来没有东西被偷。尽早大概10点半左右我们收到来自Bear家的电话。他们在早饭前出去散步，回家就遇到这种混乱局面。破碎的椅子和粥弄得到处都是。首先，Bear妈妈做的粥有点太热了，他们正在等粥凉下来。
Detective MeGee: 好吧，我们来看下证据，检测组已经到了吗？
McGraw：是的，他们发现了腕上的一些指纹，我们手滑的时候他们正在实验室分析。他们很有希望鉴定出窃贼。
Detective MeGee: 这是什么？一缕金色的头发，这是很重要的追踪证据，它表明嫌疑犯有长的金色头发，很少有男人留着长的金色头发，罪犯可能是个女的。
McGraw：女的？她单独作案？她有帮凶吗？
Detective MeGee: 帮凶?没有，McGraw。她肯定是单独作案，看这儿，看粥上面的脚印，还有地板上的这出，脚印告诉我们嫌疑犯很小，很可能是个孩子。
McGraw：孩子？肯定不是。
Detective MeGee: 我们必须跟踪线索。
McGraw：证据不会说谎，我们来重新想下犯罪的经过，嫌疑犯走进来，坐在椅子上将最小的碗打碎了，形成了现在的婚礼局面。这些脚印看起来通道楼上。McGraw，你的部下清理过现场了？
Detective MeGee: 楼下没有人，也许我们忘记检查楼上了。
McGraw：嘿，怎么有这么多噪声？我正在楼上睡觉奥。
Detective MeGee: 她在哪儿，抓住她。
