00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,819
The Case of the Missing Smile by T. Albert

2
00:00:03,819 --> 00:00:17,449
Now this looks like a very interesting case, Detective Peterson said out loud as she reviewed

3
00:00:17,449 --> 00:00:22,309
the huge stack of reports on her desk. I think I will handle this one myself.

4
00:00:25,609 --> 00:00:31,010
After several minutes of searching through the official Tooth Fairy records, she found

5
00:00:31,010 --> 00:00:35,689
what she was looking for, a folder with the name Sally Sue Simmons.

6
00:00:39,289 --> 00:00:44,109
Hmm, Detective Peterson mumbled as she studied the file.

7
00:00:47,810 --> 00:00:54,369
As Detective Peterson read the report, she noted that Sally Sue always smiled.

8
00:00:55,109 --> 00:01:00,229
From the time she got out of bed to the time she went back to bed, she smiled.

9
00:01:00,929 --> 00:01:05,150
In fact, Sally Sue never seemed to stop smiling.

10
00:01:08,659 --> 00:01:13,439
Then, two days ago, Sally Sue stopped smiling.

11
00:01:14,299 --> 00:01:22,040
Why? Detective Peterson wondered. I must find out why and get Sally Sue's smile back, she said to

12
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:31,810
herself. She searched through the file but couldn't find anything that could have caused Sally Sue

13
00:01:31,810 --> 00:01:46,159
to stop smiling all of a sudden. Was she happy at home? The smile-o-meter indicated yes. Was she

14
00:01:46,159 --> 00:01:59,189
happy at school? The smile-o-meter indicated yes. Was she happy with her friends? The smile-o-meter

15
00:01:59,189 --> 00:02:10,699
indicated yes. Everything that Detective Peterson found indicated that Sally Sue was happy and that

16
00:02:10,699 --> 00:02:23,280
she should be smiling. The detective checked with the dentist and everything was fine. The detective

17
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:30,039
checked with Tooth Fairy Central. All of Sally Sue's baby teeth had fallen out, been collected

18
00:02:30,039 --> 00:02:39,180
as scheduled, and replaced with new, extremely pretty, permanent teeth. Detective Peterson

19
00:02:39,180 --> 00:02:44,819
checked everything, but she couldn't find anything that could cause Sally Sue to stop

20
00:02:44,819 --> 00:02:55,789
smiling. There was only one choice left. Detective Peterson had to visit Sally Sue and see what

21
00:02:55,789 --> 00:03:08,840
she could do. That night, Detective Peterson flew down and visited Sally Sue. Making sure that she

22
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:19,750
didn't wake Sally Sue, she sprinkled magical tooth fairy sand into the air. Sally Sue, Detective

23
00:03:19,750 --> 00:03:32,750
Peterson whispered, what happened to your beautiful smile? You look so sad. I lost all my baby teeth,

24
00:03:32,750 --> 00:03:43,240
she whispered. Now the tooth fairy doesn't have any reason to visit me. Oh, I understand. Detective

25
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:50,199
Peterson whispered between smiling lips. The tooth fairy will always be in your heart,

26
00:03:50,620 --> 00:04:00,520
so you can wipe that silly frown off your pretty face. As Detective Peterson flew away from Sally

27
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:07,439
Sue's bedside, she saw the smile return, bigger and brighter than ever before.
