[Harry starts oiling his hair, unaware that Matilda has put peroxide in his hair tonic]
Harry: Michael, come into my room!
Michael: [walks in] What?
Harry: My boy, today's the day I take you to the shop. What do you say?
Michael: I don't know. What do you say, Dad?
Harry: I say appearance is nine-tenths of the law. People don't buy a car, they buy me, which is why I personally take such pride in my appearance; well-oiled hair, clean-shaved, a snappy suit... Now run along and get ready for a big day of learning, kid. It's gonna be a big day of learning, too. There's a sucker born every minute. We're gonna take 'em for all they got.
[Cut to the kitchen]
Michael: Give me the cookies.
Zinnia: [hands Michael the cookies] Here.
[Harry walks down to the kitchen, unaware that his hair has just turned an unhealthy platinum blonde]
Harry: Okay, my boy, heir to the throne, today we diddle the customer. [Michael's mouth drops open in shock upon seeing Harry's hair] What's wrong with you? What are you looking at? [to Zinnia] Lovekins, where's my breakfast?
Zinnia: [picks up two bowls of cereal] Here we are, my heartstrings! [turns and sees Harry's hair] AAAIIGHHH! [tosses the cereal in the air] Snickerdoodle, what did you do to your hair?
Harry: [suspiciously] My hair? [walks into the dining room and looks in the mirror] AAAAIIIIGGGHHHH!!!! [faints; Matilda snickers quietly]
[Cut to Harry beginning to pack up his car parts and his wife and their kids help him]
Harry: Give me those things. Where are you going with those? Get in the car. Go on. Get in.
Narrator: Dirty dealings, like buying stolen car parts, never stay secret for long. Especially when the FBI gets involved.
[As Harry packs up his car parts, he looks around, unaware that Agents Bob and Bill are snapping pictures of him from their car]
FBI Agent Bob: [speaks into tape recorder] 9:17, suspect exits domicile.
FBI Agent Bill: I've got 9:18.
FBI Agent Bob: [checks his watch] 9:17 is correct.
[The Wormwood family drives away to Wormwood Motors]
