slipjig3Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the ending of every Encyclopedia Brown mystery ever written.
"If you weren't there, Bugs, how did you know it was a blue bicycle?"
Caught red-handed, Bugs Meany returned Jimmy's bicycle.
Yup, that's about it. As![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rafaela pointed out, in the real world, it would go more like: "Caught red-handed, Bugs Meany beat the living crap out of Encyclopedia Brown, then shook him down for his lunch money."
Then there's the matter of fees: fifty cents a day, plus expenses. To the best of my knowledge, there never were any expenses, so I can only imagine him dipping into cheap hookers and Percocet in the back of his garage.
