-larry loomin' large never Intended to pay out $100,000.

-it was a promotional Scam for kgas.

Larry paid off "Bay-sil."

-basil.

-basil with a $500 bribe.

-oh, okay, so larry and basil Were in on this together.

-basil knew the Phrases the whole time.

He just showed up At the clue sights

To make it look like He was a contestant.

-then, why would He use his real name

If he's the one who Signed the permits?

-because he had to show me Valid id to claim the doubloon.

-and they probably Thought that no one

Would ever check the permits.

-big mistake.

-okay, I think I Got this straight.

But garner, who Were the two guys

That you arrested on the pier?

-you mean the guys who Tied us up at the cave?

-yeah, I mean, how Do they tie into this?

-well, they're janitors Down at city hall

Or at least they used to be.

And then they found Out that "Bay-sil"--

-all: basil.

-basil was in Cahoots with larry,

And thought they'd Get in on the action.

-so, now they're All behind bars.

-except larry loomin' large.

-what, he got away?

-his father bailed him out.

Seems it was daddy's doubloon.

Larry borrowed it Without telling him.
