You little snitch.

The booty's in the booty.

Thanks, mate! The boss is gonna be so happy with us.

You're toast.

So you're from Up Top?

I used to work in a laboratory Up Top.

Yeah. Big shampoo job.

I was dark grey when we started.

Still, it cleared up me dandruff.

The World Cup has become the most popular sporting event in the world.

Are you there, boss? We're back.

I've got it, boss.

The ruby. I found it.

Technically, Spike, it was Millicent that found it.

Actually, the name's Roddy.

In exchange for my assistance, I was hoping you might...

You might help me out of the pickle I'm in.

Hello, Rita.

Hello, handsome.

And who is this? Is your new boyfriend a waiter?

- Boyfriend?! - Waiter?!

The prize returns to me.

Did you imagine that I'd let you steal it from me?

What?! Thatjewel belongs to my father, and you know it!

Your father? A good-for-nothing scavenger, just like his daughter!

Excuse me. Actually,

I'm the one that found your ruby.

So... you...

Perhaps you'd repay the favor and help me get home.

Help me!

Dispose of them.

No, no, no, please! I just want to get home to Kensington!

Kensington? The Royal Borough?

Up Top?

Yes. Up Top.

Huzzah! A man of quality!

Finally, somebody gets it.

Come, let me show you my private collection.

I know you'll find it diverting.

My shrine to beauty.

Works of high art crafted in tribute to our beloved Royal Family.

Victoria's bust, wrought in porcelain.

Classy!

Quite lifelike, wouldn't you say?

It's as if she were here.

Smooth to the touch.

Easy, tiger.

But come! Let us restore the heart

and highlight of my collection...

...this ruby. Fallen from the very brow of ancient kings.

A true crown jewel!

Well, what do you think?

He's a madman! Run away!

Pardon me. My fly's undone.

Well, your ruby certainly is a biggie.

Indeed.

How did it ever find me, here in the underbelly of the world?

In this dark, low place.

Yes. I'd love to see more of your collection. It's very amusing, but I...

"Amusing"?

Didrt you say I'd find it amusing?

I said you'd find it diverting, not amusing!

When I said "amusing" I really meant it in the sense

of the ancient Greek muse, the goddess of inspiration.

Muse.

Smashing.

Heaven help me!

Ice him! Ice them both!

Let's see if there's anything good in the fridge.

Former enemies, one and all.

A catalogue of thieves, double-crossers and do-gooders.

Prepare to meet your maker, your ice maker.

Makes me laugh every time, that one.

Shut that door.

Liquid Nitrogen! That will freeze us instantly!

There's a paper clip in my back pocket. See if you can get it.
