Both stop at door. Humpty enters through door/curtain.

Humpty:  Welcome to Breakfastville! Come enjoy Sunny Side Up’s restaurant, The Scrambled Egg!

Egg Girl 1:  Oh boy! Let’s try it!

Girls and Toast Ed go in door, wait, and then come out.

Detective 3: Behind billboard. Fling! Then puts fake cooked egg on top of board. Makes it look like someone flipped it from curtain. Does not show appearance.

Humpty:  Looks up to billboard. What? Sunny should really stop flipping eggs that high! Now I have to get it!

Sheriff: Enters stage right.  What on earth are you doing?

Humpty:  I am going to get that egg up there on the wall. Points to egg.

Sheriff:  Let me tell you a little story. Every soul that climbs that wall disappears!

Girls 1,2,3, Toast Ed:  Shreeeeek!! Humpty looks afraid.

Sheriff:  Every single detective we have can’t solve this terrible crime. All we know is that The Scrambled Egg never runs out of food! It’s a mystery!

Girl 1:  It’s a case!

Girl 2:  It’s a crime!

Girl 3:  It’s a puzzle!

Toast Ed:  It’s pure insanity!

Humpty:  It is an egg salad sandwich! Girls and Sheriff walk away stage left.

Toast Ed:  Look Humpty, they’re just trying to scare you. I would do it. Nudges Humpty toward wall. Humpty climbs up wall and takes egg.

Humpty:  Humpty climbs wall. Yikes! This… this is really high! I don’t know how to… woah! Humpty goes behind billboard.

Toast Ed: Oh hot jelly man! Leaves while talking stage right. Shoot! Shoot! Shoot!

Sheriff (offstage): He did what!?

Girls 1,2,3: Enters stage right. La la la la la! Stop at door.

Girl 3: That is strange. Humpty is usually here to greet us. Toast Ed enters stage left. Looks sad.

Sheriff: Enters stage right. Humpty as well has disappeared.

Girls 1,2,3 cry.

Sheriff:  This looks like a job for the Eggtastics!

Detective 1,2,3 enter stage right.

Detective 1:  We are fantastic! We’re the Eggtastics!

Detective 2: We’ll solve this crime and we will do it just in time!

Detective 3:  We are the detectives of this place and I should say, we have great taste!

Detectives 1,2,3:   Eggtastics!

Sheriff:  Detectives! Humpty has disappeared from the infamous wall!

Detective 1:  I think the sun cooked him while he was on top of the wall!

Detective 2:  Maybe evil sardines ate him up!

Detective 3:  I think a UFO sucked him up and now he is on Mars! The aliens are going to destroy earth with egg guts! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!

Sheriff:  Sigh. I think we should look at our clues.

Detective: We should have a lineup! Ladies, gather all our suspects!

Girls 1,2,3 line up along with Egg Chef.

Detective 1:  Ladies, where were you when Humpty Dumpty vanished?

Girl 2:  Walking home, sir.

Detective 2:  They must be innocent, Sheriff! What were you doing when this case started?

Sheriff:  Walking home as well, sir.

Detective 3:  Innocent! Hmmm….wait a minute, Toast Ed! What about you?

Toast Ed: I think this young fellow might be the one. Points to Egg Chef.

Detective 1:  That is it! He was the closest one to Humpty when he disappeared!

Detective 2:  It was he that flipped the egg trying to lure Humpty Dumpty onto the wall!

Detective 3:  His restaurant has been stealing eggs so he has more food for his restaurant! Arrest him! Points to chef.

Sheriff:  Good work, men! Grabs Egg Chef by the arm.

Chef: Nooooo!

Sheriff:  Mystery solved!

Detective 1: A scheme scrambled!

Detective 2:  Another case closed!

Detective 3: It is a crime ceased!

Girl 1:  It is a riddle answered!

Girl 2: A fiasco blemished!

Toast Ed:  A confusion cracked!

Girl 3:  It is an egg sala-

Altogether:  Humpty Dumpty, the mystery solved!

Detectives leave singing their song. Girls leave saying La la la! Toast Ed leaves singing “Another One Bites the Crust”. Sheriff leaves holding onto Chef.
