Unlike the other cases which are murder cases, this case involves looking for a lost dog. The lost dog has been kidnapped by USNay supporters. I love the idea of doing a non-murder case. Glad you like it! Unlike the other cases which have suspects, we will ask five children for clues on where to find the lost dog.

So, here are the details for "Almonds":

The lost dog's name is Noopsy (a parody of Snoopy; I scrambled the letters)

The five kids are:


 * Chandler White (a parody of Charlie Brown)


 * Louis Van Smet (a parody of Linus Van Pelt)


 * Lindsay Van Smet (a parody of Lucy Van Pelt)


 * Marissa "Marshmallow Mary" Rubin (a parody of Peppermint Patty)


 * Stacy White (a parody of Sally Brown)

The crime scenes are:


 * A Picket Fence, which is the five kids' usual hangout place (a parody of the Brick Wall, where the "Peanuts" characters usally hang out)


 * A Picnic Table

I am yet to decide the other crime scenes, however.

There can also be other "Peanuts" references in the case:


 * Some of the characters will yell "Aaugh!" in the dialogues.


 * In Chapter 3, Jack and Amit see a mysterious shadow. Jack says "Amit, is that the great pumpkin?", only to find out that they found the lost dog!


 * At the start of the case, Jack flies a kite, only for it to get stuck in a tree. It is a reference to the Kite-Eating Tree.

I also had a dream where the lost dog licked Jack's face, and he says "Aaugh! I've been kissed by a dog!". I absolutely love it! Wow! Thanks! Your welcome!
