Eddie and Bebe walk back to Eddie's office, Eddie sniffs the air a bit smelling something horrible. He lifts up his air sniffing his armpit for a second before jerking back with a disgusted look on his face

It has been a few days since he took a shower

I mean can you blame him he's had his mind focus on Roger and the twins so it must of slipped his mind

He hears a yawn and looks down to see Bebe yawning a bit tired

"Look kid why don't ya take a nap or something on the bed, I gotta go take a shower and refreshing up."

"No way I ain't a baby! Beside we got a case to solve naps are for weenies!" Bebe shoos a hand to Eddie stubbornly looking away, Eddie rolls his eyes with a smirk "Well I take naps and I ain't a weenie."

Bebe looks up at him a little skeptical before walking to Eddie's bed hopping up "Well.. okay but just for a little bit wake me up and ten minutes and don't forget!" Bebe gives him a frown laying on his back wiggling under the covers. Eddie chuckles walking to his bathroom.

"Hehe sure thing kid."

..............................................

Some knocking is heard at the door making Bebe peek an eye open annoyed groaning, Eddie yells from inside the bathroom "Bebe can ya get the door?"

"Alright alright I'm coming keep your pants on!!" Bebe barks cranky stomping over to the door opening it to see Jessica Rabbit who widens her eyes seeing the toon boy "oh little boy."

"The names Bebe Mrs. Rabbit." Bebe pouts at her stepping to the side and letting her in the room he sighs a bit rubbing his eyes "Sorry I'm a little cranky I just woke up from a nap." Jessica just chuckles with a smile giving him a soft hat pat lightly ruffing is hair making the toon blush a bit bashfully "Do you know where the Detective is?"

"Yeah, Yo Eddie!! Lady's here to see you!!" Bebe yells out looking at the bathroom he doesn't get a response Bebe yells out annoyed "Eddie!!"

"I'm coming already!" Eddie shouts from the bathroom annoyed, Eddie walks out of the bathroom shirtless putting his tie around his neck looking down at Bebe "Alright what lady is here to see me?"

Bebe points his finger out making Eddie turn around to see Jessica Rabbit holding up a mirror applying her red lipstick on "You've got the wrong idea about me mister Valiant. I'm a pawn in this just like Roger and that sweet little toon girl Can you help me find him? And I know how much this little boy wants to reunite with his sister. Just name your price, and I'll pay it." Jessica leans down pinching Bebe's cheek making him turn bright red with a dopey smile tapping his foot to the side like a dog with hearts popping around him

"Yeah Eddie let the nice lady help." Bebe speaks in a dreamily manner smiling up at Jessica, Eddie frowns grabbing Bebe by his spenders pulling him back behind him.

"I figured as much. You'll pay any price, no doubt about it," said Eddie. "You need the rabbit and to make this scam work and Cece just happened to be thrown in."

"No no no. I love my husband and I would never hurt a child. You've got me all wrong." One curvaceous leg slipped into view from the slit of Jessica's dress. "You don't know how hard it is being a woman looking the way I do."

Eddie and Bebe couldn't help but stare at the beautifully drawn toon woman . "Yeah, well, you don't know how hard it is being a man," he gulped, "looking at a woman looking the way you do."

Jessica thrust out her chest and butt, striking an appealing pose. "I'm not bad. I'm just drawn that way."

"No of course not Mrs Rabbit you're.. totally.. innocent." Bebe drools a bit in a dazed at Jessica

"But weren't you the one we caught playing patty cake for old man Acme?" Eddie raises an eyebrow at Jessica walking over to his desk.

"You didn't catch me Mr. Valiant. You were set up to take those pictures. All of were pawns."

"Whatcha you talking about Mrs. Rabbit?" Bebe puts his hands on his hips squinting an eye at her suspiciously

Jessica placed her hands over her heart. "Maroon wanted to blackmail Acme. I didn't want anything to do with it, but he threatened that if I didn't pose for those patty cake pictures Roger would never work in this town again. I couldn't let that happen." Jessica walks up to Eddie "I'd do anything for my husband Mr. Valiant."

She pressed her melons against Eddie's bare chest. "Anything."

Sweating, Eddie gulped, "What a wife."

Jessica wrapped her arms around his neck. "I'm desperate Eddie. Can't you see how much I need you?"

Eddie let go of the derringer in his pocket. The weight of the small gun pulled down his loose trousers, exposing stained boxers underneath.

"Dabbling in water colors, Eddie?"

They all turn to see Dolores standing in the doorway with her arms on her hips tapping her foot looking quite angry, Bebe looks between them and Dolores smiling sheepishly jabbing a thumb towards the door "Uhhhhhh I think I'm gonna go wait outside."

"That would be a smart idea." Dolores grunts through her teeth not breaking eye contact with Eddie, Jessica picks Bebe up by his armpits holding him out in front of her "Goodbye Bebe and I do hope you find your sister remember to be a good little boy for Mister Valiant." She gives him a big o'l kiss on the cheek making Bebe's body straighten out crossing his eyes slowly turning bright red sticking his tongue out on the side of his mouth. She puts him down on the ground with a smile as the toon boy sways side to side walking away with hearts popping around him with a big red kiss mark on his cheek and a dreamy dazed look with lowered eyelids "ahehe sure thing mrs. Rabbit." He mutters walking out of the room.

The toon woman turns to Eddie, who struggled getting his pants on with nerveless hands. "Goodbye, Eddie. My offer stands firm. Think about it," she said.

Touching lipstick coated lips, Jessica blew a flying kiss in Eddie's direction. The red toon lips fluttered and smacked itself on his cheek with a savory squelch. She headed out the door, hips swaying.

"I can't not believe you Eddie!" Dolores stomps up to Eddie.

"Dolores it's not what it looks like!" Eddie scrambles a bit a bit scared at the scolded woman

"Not what it looks like? I just caught you with your pants down! And in front of child what's wrong with you!!" Dolores peels Jessica kiss off his face throwing it to the ground stomping away out the office "Come on Bebe!" She grabs Bebe's hand leading him out of the building.

"Wait where are we going? We getting another kiss from Ms Jessica?!"

"No!"

"Awww man!"

"Come on, Dolores!" Eddie called after her as she stomps away with Bebe Eddie turns her around. "You don't believe a painted hussy like that could turn my head. She's just trying to get her hands on the rabbit and Cece!"

"That's not all she's trying to get her hands on," Dolores scoffed.

"Now, look, Dolores, listen..." Eddie tried to calm her "I want you to go out and buy a new swimsuit cause you and me are going to Catina I'm on the verge of wrappin' up this case." Eddie tried to smooth talk Dolores to get her out of the bad mood.

"No, you're not, Eddie!" Dolores hissed.

"Why not?" Bebe crosses his arms frowning up at her.

"Because That's what I came to tell you two. I stopped by probate. Maroon's not after Toon Town like you thought. It's Cloverleaf that wants to get their hands on Toon Town. They put in the highest bid. And unless Mr. Acme's will shows up by midnight tonight with an eligible cartoonist, Cloverleaf's gonna own Toon Town."

"What?" Eddie stepped forward, seeing the Cloverleaf building. "At midnight tonight?"

"That's right." Dolores clarified.

"First they buy the red car, then they wanna get their hands on Toon Town. I don't get it!" Eddie raises an eyebrow to himself confused thinking to himself.

Suddenly, inside the bar there was rapid piano music playing. There was also the distinct sound of Roger's laughter. "The heck is that noise?" Bebe cocks an eyebrow.

"Roger!" Eddie grabbed Dolores and Bebe's hands and ran inside the building with them.

What they didn't know was that the man hole they were standing by opened up to reveal the weasels, eavesdropping.

"The rabbit and the girl!" Smarty snickered. "Get the judge."

..............................................

The group walked into the bar to see Cece clapping to the song while Roger sang to the bar customers happily like the very toon he was.

"Oh, Roger is my name,
and laughter is my game!
Come on, cowpoke,
it's just a joke!
Don't sit there on your brain!"

Bebe and Eddie growl together angrily that Cece and Roger were out in the open when they were supposed to be hiding! Cece turns to Eddie and Bebe happily waving to them "Oh hi Eddie! Hi bebe!"

"Sis what are you doing?! Did you forget that you were a fugitive for I don't know.. Accessory to Murder!!" Bebe waves his arms angrily yelling at his twin sister who spins around to him in a spinning stool "I know but after we played go fish, and war, slap Jack me and Roger got soooo bored so we wanted to come out here and Roger had the good idea of coming out and entertaining the bar attendants!" Cece throws her head back groaning before smiling bright gesturing to Roger dancing on the bar counter.

"Hoo hoo! Nice shirt. Who's your tailor? Quasimodo? Hoo hoo!" Roger sang to a random spectator.

He pointed at Eddie as he approached the bar. The detective gave the toon a death stare that would have put the rabbit under six feet of dirt.

"My buddy's Eddie V.
A sourpuss you'll see.
But when I'm done
he'll need no gun
cause a joker he will be."

Spinning a man's toupee, Roger surfed across the counter on a plate.

"C, D, F, G, H, I-
I-I-I-I love to raise some pain.
Believe me it's no strain.
It feels so great
to smash a plate
and look there is no pain".

"No pain."

"No pain

"No pain

Dolores screamed as Roger began smashing plates on his head, causing the record to skip.

Beyond pissed, Eddie yanked the rabbit off the counter by his ears and grabbing Cece by the back of her dress, hauling them to the backroom, and flung through the doorway. Roger landed headfirst in a mop bucket and Eddie looks at Cece with an angry red face growling at her making the little toon girl shrink with a sheepish face before dropping her making her land on her butt.

"Hey, who turned out the lights? I can't see a thing! What's going on?" Roger yelled, his head lodged in the bucket. He began prying off the bucket with his huge, clodhopper feet.

The detective shook with rage. "Crazy rabbit!! We're out there risking our necks for you and what are you doing? Singing and dancing!

Bebe caught the bucket throwing it to the ground as Roger managed kicking it off his head. "Yeah you trying to get my baby sister dipped?!"

"But I'm a toon. Toons are supposed to do tricks that make people laugh," Roger pleaded

"Sit down!!" Eddie forced Roger into a chair. Roger looks at Bebe with a soft smile "Don't you every do things or pull jokes to make each other laugh?"

"Yeah but this is different Roger my sister could get hurt and you made it easier for that to happen!" Bebe frowns annoyed putting Cece behind him

"You guys just don't understand, those people needed to laugh," Roger said.

"Yeah!" Cece nods agreeing.

"Yeah," Eddie snapped, "and when they're done laughing their butts off they're gonna call the cops. One loser out there, Angelo, would rat on you two for a nickel!"

Roger bit his fingertips. "No way. They'd never turn us in."

"Why? Because you made them laugh?"

The rabbit stood on the chair till he was level with Eddie. "That's right! A laugh can be a very powerful thing. Why, sometimes in life it's the only weapon we have. Laughter is super important-"

A red light in the corner flashed warningly. They stood silent, still as statues.

"What is it?" Bebe and Cece asked.

The redness of the light reflected off Eddie's horror. "We have company," he murmured.

..............................................

Dolores pushes a red button under the table trying to keep herself cool calm and collected as Judge Doom entered, looking cold and icy as usual.

"I'm looking for a couple of murderers." Doom demanded.

The patrons all looked around and tried to keep quiet, not even mentioning Roger or Cece.

"A rabbit and a girl." Doom continued, walking about the tavern. "A Toon rabbit and a toon girl... About... Yay big..." he clamped his hand over top a short man in the bar, squishing him down to the floor by the broken plates.

"Look, there's no rabbit or girl here," Dolores lied, coolly. "So don't harass my costumers."

"I didn't come here to harass, I came here to reward," Doom clarified. He then took a man with a pool cue by the sleeve and wiped the blackboard for French Dip and wrote on the board with chalk, scraping it which rattled everyone's ears for Rabbit and girl Dip for $5,000.

Cece gasps a bit silently hugging Rogers waist with tears in her eyes shaking scared "Roger I'm scared I don't wanna get dipped." Roger looks at the toon girl with sympathy hugging her close to his chest "Don't worry Cece that ain't gonna happen.. R-Right Eddie?"

Eddie looks at Roger who looks at him worried looking down at the lightly sobbing five year toon girl hugging him "Yeah don't worry kid I ain't gonna let that happen." Eddie whispers to her assuring nodding looking out the peep hole

Angelo whistled at that. "Hey, I've seen a rabbit and kid..."

Cece, Bebe, and Roger silently gasps looking at each other scared

"Where?" Doom asked the sloppy man, coming toward him. "Where!?"

"They're right here in the bar." Angelo replied. He then took out his arm over a stool with a cheeky smile. "Well, say hello... Harvey and Tootie."

The men then all started to laugh at the imaginary accused murderers while Doom just stared at them coldly. Doom looked at them with a frightening grin to silence them. Suddenly, there was a record still skipping. Eddie had stopped the song, but the record was still going.

Doom held the record, glancing at the title. "'Merry-Go-Round, Broke Down'. Quite a loony selection for a group of drunken reprobates..."

Doom grabbed the record back and sniffed it, He then grinned at his minions, throwing the record. "He's HERE!"

Stupid had his mouth wide open and the record landed into his mouth, making the other weasels laugh at him. Even Smarty couldn't help himself.

"STOP THAT LAUGHING!" Doom demanded, shoving Smarty against a table. "Have you forgotten what happened last time? If you don't stop laughing, you're gonna end up DEAD, just like your idiot, hyena cousins!"

"Say, boss," Smarty settled himself. "You want we shoud 'disresemble' the place?"

"No, Sergeant," Doom replied. "Disassembling the place won't be necessary. The rabbit or boy are going to come right to me."

Doom went to the bar table and started tapping Shave and a Haircut. "No Toon can resist the old Shave and a Haircut trick." Doom explained, then continued tapping.

Eddie rolls his eyes at the sound of it "I don't know who's toonier you or Doom." He turns around to see Roger twitched nervously as he fought for control over the tempting tempo that was Shave and a Haircut.

Cece twitch an eye wiggling a bit like a noodle "B-Bebe I feel k-kinda f-funny." Twisting her body like a noodle trying to keep it in putting her hands over her mouth. Bebe grunts his teeth wrapping his arms over his head trying to block out the sound of the tapping wiggling like a snake looking at Eddie a bit freaked out and desperate "Yeah m-me too! U-Uh Eddie a little h-help." Eddie turns around to see the twins twitching like Roger trying to hold it in.

Of course they were

They were toons just like Roger so of course it would affect them too.

"Guys! Guys no! Roger, Bebe, Cece don't do it no!" Eddie yelled

"Shave and a haircut." Doom taps his staff against the wall. Unfortunately, that Roger broke through the wall happily holding Bebe and Cece in the air as they all sing together out loud. "TWO BITS!"

Bebe and Cece get wide eyed before frowning with deadpan looks on their face slumping forward speaking in unison "Dang it!"

Doom then grabbed Roger by the throat and Cece by the back of her shirt.

"Hey Judge, what should we do with the wall flowers?" Smarty asked, holding a knife for Eddie and Bebe.

"We'll see to them later," Doom said, tightening his grip around Roger's neck. "Right now, I feel like dispensing some justice. Bring me some Dip."

Suddenly the Dip was brought in and opened ready to kill off Roger and Cece who lets out a frightening scream with tears in her eyes terrified.

"No! Let go of my sister!! NO!!" Bebe rushes over to Doom but Smarty and Pyscho hold him back as Bebe desperately tries to reach for her.

"I'll be getting to in a minute my boy but first your sister and the rabbit must pay for their crimes." Doom gives Bebe a smirk looking at Roger and Cece "You would dip a child? You're a monster!" Dolores yells at Doom angrily as some of the guys in the bar chime in in outrage but Doom quickly shuts them up "I would my own grandmother if that meant the streets would be safer for people now shut your mouths all of you!! Or I'll have you all under arrest!!"

"Does the condemned have anything to say before his sentence is carried out?" Doom offered any last words to the Roger and Cece

"Why, yeah, I-" Roger tried to answer, but gagged as he was strangled again to go inside the dreaded Dip "Heey that's not fair! You're doing that on purpose!-"Cece points a finger at Doom before getting choked a bit by her shirt collar gagging. Bebe growls angrily but then get a light bulb over his head flashing with an idea but not before he grabs it and hits Smarty over the head with it making yell holding his head in pain while Smarty pointed and laughed at him.

Bebe runs over to Eddie tugging his pant leg "Hey Eddie remember when Roger drank that nasty alcohol in mister Maroons office?"

Eddie eyes wide seeing where he was going with this as the two go over to Dolores "Good idea kid Dolores, Bourbon, and make it a double."

"Fine time for a drink, Eddie," Dolores said, sarcastically. "Maybe Bebe would like a bowl of pretzels to go with it!"

"Just pour the drink, Dolores." Eddie said, Bebe gestures Dolores to come down to him she bends down leaning her ear in as the toon boy whispers in her ear, her eyes widen now understanding Dolores poured the drink as told.

"Hey, Judge!" Eddie called to Doom. "Don't a dyin' rabbit deserve a last request?"

"Yeah! Nose plugs would be nice!" Roger cried as he was paused from being dipped. "Yeah and a strawberry shortcake and birthday cake ice cream for me please!" Cece holds up a finger with a scared Bebe smacks his hand in his face

His sister was about to get dipped and she was thinking about food!

"I think you want a drink." Eddie said, lifting the glass of Bourbon. "How 'bout it, Judge, huh?"

"Well, why not?" Doom shrugged and place Roger right side up. "I don't mind prolonging the execution."

"Happy Trails!" Eddie handed the glass.

"No thanks, Eddie, I'm tryin' to cut down." Roger declined.

"Drink the drink!"

"But I don't want the drink!"

"He doesn't want the drink!" Doom added.

"He does!" Eddie argued.

"I don't!" Roger protested.

"You do!"

"I don't!"

"You do!"

"I don't!"

"You don't." Bebe stepped forward with a smirk pointing to Roger

"I do!" Roger argued with him.

"You don't!"

"I do!"

"You don't!"

"Listen!" Roger swiped the glass. "When I say 'I do', that means 'I do'!" he then gulped down the drink and started to have one of his infamous spasms.

Eddie, Bebe, and Cece instantly ducked down as Dolores stayed up, waiting to see what was going to happen. Eddie then grabbed her and pulled her down with them. Eddie then started to beat up the weasels while Roger was having his fit and pushing Doom back with the bar men. Roger finished and nearly plummeted into the Dip, but Eddie grabbed him. Bebe and Cece quickly putting on medical gloves pushed the Dip tank down, splashing it in their way and ran out with Eddie.

"See ya Judge Doofus!!" Bebe calls out blowing a raspberry at the judge before running with the others out of the bar.

..............................................

"Come on, guys, let's get outta here!" Roger cried, taking the lead.

The group made it outside and were thinking of a getaway. They found the Toon Patrol car and decided to go away in it. Eddie took the driver's seat while Bebe and Cece were squished in the middle and Roger sat in the passenger seat.

"What're you waitin' for?" Roger asked, seeing Eddie wasn't driving.

"There's no damn key!" Eddie hissed.

"Hey, you weasels, let me outta here, will ya? I gotta make a livin'!" a voice shouted from the back.

"Is that Benny the Cab?" Cece fangirled out loud.

Roger opened the small window. "Benny, is that you?"

"No, it's Eleanor Roosevelt!" the voice said, sarcastically. "Come on Roger, get me outta here!"

Roger slipped in through the window with the others still in the Toon Patrol car. Roger's love letter slipped out and Eddie grabbed it and stuffed it in his pocket.

"We gotta ride, open the doors!" Roger told the human

Eddie, Cece and Bebe climbed out of the car and saw Benny the Cab come right out of the doors.

"Ah, that's better!" Benny sighed. "I can't believe they locked me up for drivin' on a sidewalk!"

"Come on, guys, get in!" Roger called to them.

"It was just a couple of miles..." Benny continued, shrugging his tires.

"Wow you're really Benny the cab can I get your autograph!" Cece squeals dancing in place pulling out her notebook holding up a pen "Aww sure kid anything for a fan!" Benny gives her a friendly smile griping the pen with the tire signing his name. Eddie quickly grabs Cece putting her in the backseat with her brother.

"I'll drive." Eddie said, getting behind the wheel.

"But I wanna drive!" Roger whined.

"Can I drive!" Bebe raises his hand

"No! You're too young to drive!" Eddie yells at him

"No, I'll drive, I'm the cab!" Benny told them, then started driving down the streets with them. "Outta my way pencil neck! How about this weather, huh? It never rains!"

"And how about those Brooklyn Dodgers?" Benny continued to chat. "Are they bums or what?"

There were sirens, and everyone turned to see the weasels on their tail.

"Benny, Eddie, Bebe, Cece, we got company!" Roger cried.

"Would you look at those two?" Benny pointed to two cars in front of them and cut in. "Excuse me ladies! Now that's what I call a couple of road hogs!"

The twins moved side to side in the backseats while Roger looked panicked with the weasels and their guns to take them down.

"Benny, look out for the red car!" Roger cried as a trolley came to pass.

Benny swerved and missed it, turning back on the road and driving again. The Toon Patrol did the same and went right after them. Suddenly, a couple of officers came as they were seeming to speed.

"Benny, there's cops right behind us!" Roger cried.

"Not for long, Roger!" Benny assured, driving backwards into an alley. "Now they're right in front of us!"

"Eddie, we're goin' backwards, turn us around!" Roger yelled out. "Gimme the wheel! Gimme the wheel!"

Benny spun all around and zipped down the alley to leave the cops in the dust.

"The cops are still on our tail!" Roger pointed out.

"I KNOW the cops are on our tail!" Eddie snapped back. "Whatya think I am, bl-" he then screamed with the others as the Toon Patrol van rode up.

"PULL THE LEVER!" Benny yelled.

"Which one? Which one?" the group looked at the various different buttons.

Suddenly a sign came up, pointing to a lever reading: This Lever, Stupid.

Eddie pulled the lever, making Benny spring up with them and the wheels still on the ground, only extended. The Toon Patrol and cops looked shocked, then crashed into each other as the group escaped.

"I'm gettin' too old for this!" Benny yelled.

Cece moaned, then groaned and cupped her mouth turning green in the face "Oh I don't feel so good!"

"Hey, kid, no messin' up my paint job!" Benny warned how she looked like she was getting carsick. He then noticed a bridge before them. "Hey Roger, whatya call the middle of a song?"

"Gee, I dunno," Roger scratched his head, then clung onto Eddie as he saw the bridge coming up. "A BRIDGE!"

Benny made it over the bridge and lowered his wheels back to normal, laughing. "Well fella, where can I drop ya?"

"Somewhere we can hide." Roger answered.

"I got just the place," Benny smiled driving them to the safe spot. "And incidentally, if you should ever need a ride, just stick out your thumb! Hey! Share the road, will ya, lady?
