Adventures in Wonderland1992

Mad Hatter:
[Re-enacting the scene of the crime] And then I slipped... and fell against the pedestal.

[His hat falls off revealing the missing crown. Everyone gasps]

Mad Hatter:
It's alright. I'm fine!

Red Queen:
Hatter! My crown!

Mad Hatter:
Yes, I know you want your crown! But don't worry, Your Majesty, with me on the case the crown-snatcher won't be able to keep this dastardly deed under his hat forever!

Red Queen:
I mean, just give me my crown!

[Takes it from his head. He gasps at the realization]

Mad Hatter:
It was under my hat the whole time?

March Hare:
Boy, I sure hope this doesn't get into the private eye newsletter!

Mad Hatter:
Your Majesty, I had no idea the crown fell on my head. You believe me, don't you?

Red Queen:
What's not to believe?

Alice:
Right. It's not that you and the Hare are bad detectives. You were just looking for crowns in all the wrong places.
