Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Emil und die Detektive is a German children's book by Erich Kästner, who also wrote Lottie and Lisa, the book that inspired The Parent Trap.Twelve-year-old Emil, son of a poor single mother, is sent to Berlin for the first time in his life, to bring 140 marks (about a month's income of his mother; it's seven pounds in some versions) to his grandma, for financial support. But when he falls asleep on the train, a man who calls himself Grundeis steals the money from him. Fortunately he meets Gustav with the signal horn, who's the leader of a children's gang and willing to help him catch the guy.The novel received a sequel, Emil and the Three Twins. It's been adapted for film, television and the stage, and some well-known creators have worked on the various movie versions; Billy Wilder wrote the screenplay for the 1931 film, while Disney produced an adaptation in 1964.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

"Could Have Avoided This!" Plot | |
| Emil and the Detectives / int_44989f6f | comment |
"Could Have Avoided This!" Plot: Near the end of the book, when Emil is being interviewed by reporters, one of them wonders aloud why Emil didn't just go to the police to report the theft of his money. Much earlier prior to this, too, when Emil first meets Gustav, the latter points out a policeman that Emil could make a report to right then and there. However, the reason Emil never goes that route is because of the Felony Misdemeanor he'd committed earlier. | |
