Hoodwinked Page #3

You're looking at three-to-five

in an old shoe with no windows!

So start singing!

- Your face looks familiar.

- l get around the forest.

What do you for a living, Mr. Wolf?

l'm a shepherd. Hey!

You might as well confess.

l told them everything!

Oould you keep her

away from me, please?

l remember you.

Three years ago on the Stiltskin case.

You were snooping around

for a lead on his real name.

l was close too.

l was gonna go with ''Greg.''

Greg Stiltskin.

Wait a minute, Flippers!

You saying this guy's a cop?

Worse. He's a reporter.

- A what?

- And l've got the real story.

[bicycle bell rings]

[Wolf] l'm an investigativejournalist.

You've probably read my column

Facts and Fairy Tales.

[typewriter typing, dings]

l spent the last six months undercover

investigating

the so-called ''Goody Bandit.''

As more recipes go missing,

the trail has gotten hotter.

- [all] Huh?

- [laughing]

And l'm talking hot coffee, hot coffee,

all over my neck. Very, very painful.

People think a health board examiner

doesn't lead a dangerous life,

but l will tell you, my furry friend,

food is dangerous.

That's why Kenny told me

to come and take a look.

- Who?

- Your boss, Kenny.

- You mean Earl?

- That's what Earl said.

He said, uh, ''Kenny, come down here,''

and so, here l am.

l'm surprised your dessert counter

hasn't been hit,

with all the thievery going around.

- What did you say your name was?

- Shaw. Rick Shaw. l'm in from Japan.

Well, Kenny, l'm gonna

give you a clean bill of health.

But l'm gonna need the names

of all your suppliers.

- You'll have to talk to Earl.

- [pager beeping]

Well, that's Earl right now.

Probably called the FDA.

You keep that thing groomed.

And watch out for hot coffee. Painful.

No desserts. Waste of time.

[bike bell rings]

[Wolf] The little delivery girl

in the red hood.

Always on the go.

More goodies pass through her hands

than anyone's in the whole forest.

She seemed happy...

...a little too happy, perhaps.

Oh! Oreepy.

l was starting to have my suspicions.

Question:

Who does she move the goodies for?

Where do they come from?

Where are they going?

And why the hood?

Aaah!

- Twitchy, you scared me.

- Hey, boss, l beeped you. Get my beep?

- Oalm down.

- l got up early. Got the gear.

l was watching the girl

like you told me to.

- Yeah. Did you see where she went?

- Past porcupines and the bird's tree,

guy with the beard, now she's

up the creek! She sings everywhere!

l'm way ahead of you.

We gotta find out who she's working for.

- You got the camera?

- The 220x and photograb with autofocus!

- Oolor or black and white?

- Doesn't matter.

- l brought a flash!

- Put that away!

- lt's covert. No flash.

- Undercover, got it.

Nobody sees, nobody knows.

Olick-click. Hee-hee.

You ever thought

about decaffeinated coffee?

l don't drink coffee!

Hmm...

Excuse me. Pardon me. Pardon.

[Wolf] l decided to get the word on the

street from one of my top informants.

- How's it going, Woolworth?

- Man, what are you doing here?

The shepherd comes by and sees me

talking to you, l'm gonna get the crook.

Yeah? There's a bigger crook

on the loose that l'm concerned about.

- What ya hear about the Goody Bandit?

- What do l know?

- Hiya, Twitchy.

- [bleating]

- The little girl in the red hood.

- Don't know, never heard of her.

Little Red? Processing...

Yeah, yeah, it's coming back to me now.

Sweet gal. Not like that Bo Peep.

Brat put in an invisible fence.

l tasted my own fillings for a week!

Focus! The girl in the hood.

You get around the mountain.

Who does she work for?

How should l know?

l ain't that curious.

Family business. Ain't you

ever heard of Granny Puckett?

- Puckett?

- Her grandma.

The Granny Puckett?

You pulling the wool over my eyes?

Ha-ha. Hilarious. Oome up

with that yourself? That's funny.

- You're looking pretty tasty.

- Why you gotta be like that?

All l know is that the old lady

lives up high in the hills.

- Not a lot of visitors.

- Except the little girl.

She's been known to take

the cable car up the mountain.

Oable car?

Those sheep made me hungry.

After this, we're grabbing a bite.

Sounds good. Sounds good.

[over receiver] Baa.

[frog croaking]

[Spanish music]

[male 1] l don't know what to do.

Should l call her?

- Am l supposed to play it cool?

- [male 2] Keeping her options open.

Seeing other people.

You should do the same.

[male 1] Shh. Up there.

Do you mind?

Ooh. Sorry.

[static, radio signals]

[Boingo] Hey, you deliver up this far?

[static]

[Red] The Muffin Man...

Granny's recipes...

...an evil plan.

...shut down everyone in the forest...

l knew it.

She's working for the old lady. Twitchy.

[chattering]

[Red] Aaah!

- [camera shutter clicking]

- [Red grunting]

[Red] Aaah!

Ooh! Uhh!

Uhh! Ooh! Ugh!

Ouch!

[sputtering]

[gasps]

- [growling]

- Ohh!

[growling]

Ahh!

Ohh!

- [gasps]

- 'Afternoon.

Hello.

So you're the little girl

in the red hood.

That's quite a bit of falling

you did just now.

[coughing]

[Wolf] Gravity's working.

What are you doing

in the big, bad forest?

You taking goodies

to someone in particular?

[Red] Um... Granny.

[Wolf] You don't have anything else

in that basket?

- You ask a lot of questions, mister.

- Well, l'm a curious guy.

- Let me have a look.

- [Red] l'd rather you didn't.

- [yelling]

- [screaming]

l mean, ''please.'' Oome back here!

- What are you doing?

- Sorry, l was winding.

Oome on! We're gonna lose her!

Red! Red Riding Hood!

We'll never catch her.

Taxi!

[door slams]

[music plays on radio]

Whoa! That was her.

We passed her. Right here's fine.

[tires screech]

Suspect is approaching on foot,

stolen recipes in basket.

l'm about to catch her red-handed.

- [gasps]

- Hand over the basket!

- Aaah!

- Hyahh!

So you really took a beating...

- ...from a little girl?

- Hey!

- Hai-yah!

- Ooh!

Get back here, you little brat!

[panting]

# One, two, buckle to you

Ready or not, here l come

# Don't you run away

# A-B-C, l can read

And the sign up ahead said

# Son, you're the 1-2-3-4

Knock on the door

# Open up, gotta run away ##

OK. Not cool. Ahhh!

You can't hold

onto those recipes forever!

l'll get you,

and your little Granny too!

Well, that's fishy.

What? They're evil. l'll prove it!

[panting]

[coughing]

- So can we eat?

- Sure. You hungry for failure?

Maybe a side of unemployment?

'Oause that's what's for lunch.

- What do we do?

- We go right to the source.

We gotta get to Granny's before the kid.

- [Boingo] ls it a surprise?

- Excuse me?

You're going over to Granny's house

to surprise Red. ls it her birthday,

or what is it? ls there a shindig?

'Oause l'm great at parties.

- Watch me pull myself out of a hat!

- Yeah.

Big surprise party.

You know how to get there?

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

ln fact, l know a shortcut.

You hear that? He knows a shortcut.

Over the woods and through the river...

No, you don't want to go
