Rip Haywire by Dan Thompson for February 09, 2017
Transcript:
Narrator: As darkness falls over the recently crome-ridden streets of key bay Harbortown, a fowl wind blows. Man: GAAAAH! Rip Haywire: Your jewelry store was robbed last night by the villain known as the Cobra... what did she take? Man: Nothing! I thought she'd switched a diamond necklace with a fake one... but the diamond expert I showed the necklace to... Mr. August... said it was the genuine article! Which was the most confusing thing that happened to me until a giant chicken started asking me questions! Rip Haywire: Where crime lurks, there is no time for explanations! Bantam out!

Wait, Cobra breaks into a jewelry store. But doesn’t steal anything? Unless… who is ‘Mr. August’?

I think Mr. August must be an accomplice (the old fake jewelry expert ploy).

Bantam Rooster, not a chicken since they are female and lay eggs. They can trace their lineage back to Tyrannosaurs Rex in the Cretaceous Period. One of the top predators to ever exist on land.
