finest lip gloss. It was in my hand. lssued in the year 1920. - Where'd it come from? - It wasn't me. It was him. Beethoven. - Oh. - (all try to coax him over) (man) Do you want to come home with Uncle Stu? Will somebody please tell me what's going on? Well, Sara, it's all about the history of our fair town. Burkin's mine produced more mercury than the rest of the country. Millions of teeth have been filled because of our little burg right here. The mine was open till about 15 years ago. Then the FDA started spreading those lies. It's a medical urban myth that mercury is poisonous. I use it all the time. I'm fine. But our biggest claim to fame came back in 1926. We made all the papers then. - You know why, Sara? - Why? Come here. I'll show you. The famous Moe and Rita Selig. They were bank robbers. Like Bonnie and Clyde. Well, not exactly. They were more accomplished. They just never got a movie made about them. Rita and Moe, the courteous crooks. They were known as the courteous crooks because they would always say please before they robbed you blind. Then of course there's the red carnation. Moe always pulled it from his lapel and left it behind after a heist. - But they never hurt anyone. - Yeah. They must have robbed... 12 banks before the cops caught up with them. - Guess where, Sara? - Quicksilver. Bingo! That's exactly right. The cops chased them right into Quicksilver Lake, and... they drowned. That was a black day for Rita and Moe. - They found the car. - But they never found the money. Right, Garrett. Not that everybody didn't look for it. So you see why we're all going nuts. Beethoven has done what nobody's been able to do in 80 years. Do you really think Beethoven found Rita and Moe's loot? What else could it be? How many Jackson ten-dollar bills do you think are lying around in the woods? Yeah. Hey, wouldn't it be cool if Beethoven could find some more? Yeah, if he's not afraid of... ghosts. Oh, come on. It's been rumoured that the ghosts of Moe and Rita haunt those woods, protecting their money. - It's true. - Oh, please. I never believed it, but I got to tell you... Something weird happened to me out there a few years ago. I was squirrel-hunting in the woods, and all of a sudden I knew that somebody was following me. Here it was, the middle of the summer, yet this icy wind blew right through me. (Beethoven whines) Even my dog started howling. But there was nobody there. And it's a proven fact that dogs howl when ghosts are around. Dogs also howl at fire engines. We've really enjoyed this little walk through history. But we don't want to take up any more of your valuable time. Come on, kids. - Thanks a lot, Harold. - Bye. - Bye, Mr Herman. - Come back any time. You too, big fella. My door is always open. Hurry, let me out of here. - The ride's over. You survived. - Next time I get the front, OK? It's just as creepy up front. You think it's creepy now, you should have seen it when they brought it in. OK, get a good whiff of this ten-spot and lead me to its brothers and sisters. Go! - (Sara) Why are we going at night? - (Freddy) So no one will see us. - (Garrett) He's going to do it. - He's better than a lottery ticket. Come on, boy. Use your smeller, feller. (growls) - What is it, boy? - (animal cry) (Sara) What's that? - I don't like it, Uncle Freddy. - It's probably just a possum. (animal cry) - Stu? - Freddy? What are you doing out here in the middle of the night? Oh, just... enjoying the walk. With a metal detector? You'd be surprised at what you can find in the woods. Tonight I hit the jackpot. How about this fork? You know, you can never, ever have enough forks. One buck and it's yours. The weird thing is, I have more forks than I need right now. So you have a nice night, OK? Oh, listen. Freddy. - I was never
