Moments later, giving private detective DR STEVE ZEUS barges in looking flustered.

MATTHEW

Goodness, Steve! Is everything okay?

STEVE

I'm afraid not.

MATTHEW

What is it? Don't keep me in suspense...

STEVE

It's ... a thug ... I saw an evil thug rob a bunch of elderly ladies!

MATTHEW

Defenseless elderly ladies?

STEVE

Yes, defenseless elderly ladies!

MATTHEW

STEVE

I agree, but I wouldn't know where to start.

MATTHEW

STEVE

STEVE fans himself and begins to wheeze.

MATTHEW

Focus Steve, focus! Where did it happen?

STEVE

St Michael's Mount, Cornwall! That's right - St Michael's Mount, Cornwall!

MATTHEW springs up and begins to run.
