comment |
Ripley's Bureau of Investigation is a book series written by Kay Wilkins (uncredited on the covers), illustrated by Ailin Chambers, and (apparently most importantly) published by Ripley Publishing to promote Ripley's Believe It or Not to kids. But it still could be considered a good series in its own right. It consists of eight published books. The two latest books, "Danger Underground" and "Haunted Hotel", were unpublished, until ebook versions recently appeared exclusively on the children's reading app, Pickatale. The series was intended to have twelve books in total, but it discontinued, likely due to low sales.On an alternate Earth where Robert Ripley started a private international boarding school for highly talented, genius, or superpowered teenagers on his private island, seven of the best students of Ripley High (or Ripley Academy, it varies between the books and the website) are part of a secret elite team called Ripley's Bureau of Investigation, or the RBI. Run and briefed by their favourite teacher Mr Cain, given high tech gadgets by their science/technology teacher Dr Maxwell, and assisted and co-briefed by their hologram AI RIPLEY. The team is dedicated to traveling the world and investigating sightings of strange creatures and phenomena, to determine the truth and to contribute to the database of discoveries made by the late Robert Ripley and the RBI itself. |

Passing Notes in Class |
| | Ripley's Bureau of Investigation / int_2241cc1e |
comment |
Passing Notes in Class: In "Sub-Zero Survival", Kate was so excited to tell the other agents about a link she found between the clues to find the next artifact, she couldn't wait to tell them after class. So she passed a note to let them know, which the other agents pass on...unfortunately it didn't end well. |

comment |
Laser Cutter: When trapped in a net, Max discovered Dr Maxwell tweaked his laser pointer to be a literal laser, subsequently he used it to burn though the net and escape. Then, he used it to melt the screws of the grate trapping Kate in a flooded shaft, ensuring he could lift the grate off and rescue her. Finally, he used it on a lock of a locked door, which had the culprit's gear on the other side. |

Doing Research |
| | Ripley's Bureau of Investigation / int_26a3246d |
comment |
Doing Research: It's stated they do this before every mission by going through files/reports or asking geography teacher Miss Burrows (who doesn't know about the RBI) about the location of a particular mission, but there is a chapter dedicated to this trope in "Shock Horror". With Li, Zia, and Max going to a newspaper records office to find information about unusual storm that occurred 15 years ago and a missing park ranger. And in "Danger Underground", offscreen essentially, Zia checked out the maps of the Australian town Copper Creek and its old abandoned mine tunnels to find a connection (concerning the cause of the numerous sinkholes and freak heat incidents). Then both she and Kobe researched similar incidents that happened to an American town in the 1960s, to determine the cause in the Australian town, fires in the coal mines underneath Copper Creek. |

Sadist Teacher |
| | Ripley's Bureau of Investigation / int_2a6a8e89 |
comment |
Sadist Teacher: Shaun Willis, the school's artifact studies teacher, goes back and forth between this and Stern Teacher. Most of the students, apart from Kate, find his lectures boring. He's very strict when he conducts his lessons, wanting absolute silence from his students in class. Seems reasonable at first, but he gets angered very easily, ready to shout when he shouldn't. He clearly favours Kate more than the other students, being much kinder to her, and treats Max in the opposite manner. And then there's the fact that he gave Jack detention for being tardy, not at all sympathetic to the reason why Jack was late...because he was taking care of a sick two-headed cow! |

Omniglot: Kate can speak fourteen languages fluently. Justified though, she was born with the ability to pick up the basics of a language by hearing it only once. So technically she can know every language, but she only counts the ones she learnt to speak fluently. A downplayed version applies to all the characters from non-English speaking countries (Li, Zia, Alek, and Kobe) since they definitely know English as well as their native languages. |

Strange Secret Entrance |
| | Ripley's Bureau of Investigation / int_32a4f5d |
comment |
Strange Secret Entrance: The RBI's underground base can be accessed by activating an iris recognition scanner (with the right eye) within the left double eye of the bust of the famous double-pupil man Liu Min. Once activated, the panel which the bust is attached to would swing back as a door, opening up to a spiral staircase that leads down to the base. In "Haunted Hotel", the team finds a hollow wooden panel in the wall that is likely a hidden door. Max figures out how to open it by twisting a wall skull lamp, making the panel slide back. |

Recruit Teenagers with Attitude |
| | Ripley's Bureau of Investigation / int_3e710b5d |
comment |
Recruit Teenagers with Attitude: Justified. They're not just ordinary inexperienced teenagers. They're highly skilled prodigies and experts in their fields of interests, most of them with rare strange abilities that were likely not found in any skilled adults at the time. Plus teenagers would have a good balance of skepticism and open-mindedness that would be suitable for the job of investigating such unbelievable sightings. Whereas most adults would be too skeptical to proceed properly. |

Challenge Seeker: Alek is a very competitive sportsman. He tries to play every sport imaginable for the sheer love of them and the challenge, with the skill to match. There is a reason he's an under-16 Olympic athlete after all. For example, in "Secrets of the Deep", he, Kobe, Jack, and Max have a swimming endurance competition for fun. Jack and Max gave up around a half and hour in, but Alek and Kobe kept going for (what felt like) hours because of their respective abilities. While Kobe kept going because of his enhanced endurance/stamina, Alek continued because of his refusal to lose. |

"Scooby-Doo" Hoax |
| | Ripley's Bureau of Investigation / int_4b9a8e96 |
comment |
"Scooby-Doo" Hoax: What the DUL often does that the RBI has to deal with. The DUL would steal and trick people into collaborating with them to make hoaxes to ruin the database. In "A Scaly Tale", they attempted to mislead the RBI agents to follow a fake lead about a different monster instead of the possible lizard man. In "The Dragon's Triangle", they stole an inventor's giant robot dragon to mess with the RBI. In "Secrets of the Deep", they tricked/hired an underwater sculptor to make a fake underwater city to trick the RBI. This is especially the case in "Haunted Hotel", the most comparable to the trope in question, they tricked an employee of Castle Warden to fake a haunting to trick the RBI and sabotage the hotel's opening. |

Why Did It Have to Be Snakes? |
| | Ripley's Bureau of Investigation / int_5beef860 |
comment |
Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?: Ironically, Jack. He had a bad experience with snakes when he was younger, because snakes are not willing to let Jack communicate with them and calm them down like other animals. It didn't help when he was face-to-face with a Burmese python in "A Scaly Tale", and he had to face his fear for his initial mission in "Danger Underground"...investigate and bring back a three-headed snake. |

Badass Normal: Max seems to be the only agent with no special superpower-like abilities. Everyone else is skilled, knowledgeable, and have strange abilities, whereas he is just skilled and knowledgeable. Nevertheless, he is still their equal and is highly competent as an agent. Alek could be considered as this technically. He wasn't born with super strength, he went through enough training and exercises to become as strong as he is. But he is still no longer normal, so it's debatable. |

No Such Agency: The RBI is not exactly an agency, but it's still supported by something bigger. Only a few contacts, the DUL, and eventually people interviewed for the database know about the RBI. Employees of Ripley's Believe It Or Not outside of the school (Mr Cain and Dr Maxwell are the only teachers who know of course) have heard stories about the RBI, but some of them regarded the stories as not true and thus believing the RBI isn't real. |

Formula-Breaking Episode |
| | Ripley's Bureau of Investigation / int_670db7d7 |
comment |
Formula-Breaking Episode: Usually the formula for a novel in the series is that three agents are briefed at Ripley High and go on a mission. Plus, each book is one mission after another. It was changed just for "Danger Underground" and "Haunted Hotel", both missions in each book happen at the same time, the whole team on different missions. But: "Danger Underground" never even involves Ripley High once. The book begins with Jack, back in his hometown in Australia for the summer, just being informed that Max won't be able to visit because he's going on a mission with Kate and Li, the one that occurs in the next book "Haunted Hotel". Instead of being briefed in the RBI's base, Jack is briefed via his R-Phone's video link by Mr Cain. Because the initial mission is a two-hours drive away from Jack and is simply about a three-headed snake, Mr Cain only sends one agent at first, Alek. But once the escalating heat-related incidents happen, Mr Cain sends over the remaining agents, Zia and Kobe, increasing the number of members of the team to four. While Max, Alek, and Kate went on a mission to Antarctica in "Sub-Zero Survival" (mainly to find the first artifact of Ripley's artifact hunt), Mr Cain sends the remaining agents (Jack, Kobe, Zia, and Li) on a mission to Egypt. The book only focused on the Antarctic mission, the Egyptian mission remained offscreen. But "Danger Underground" and "Haunted Hotel" is the first time the reader gets to know what happens on these simultaneous missions. |

Big Brother Instinct: Alek. He is older than at least four of the other agents and is the tallest/strongest, he is protective of his teammates and has saved them multiple times thanks to his skills and athleticism. Such as saving Max and Zia from a giant robot dragon with back flips, saving Li from a shark, and saving Kate from falling down a crevasse by diving down after her then free-climbing its sheer sides. He almost dived into a boiling hot lake to retrieve a replacement boat (to save Jack, a young civilian girl, and her dog from being stuck in the lake), until Jack reminded him that if the lake managed to melt the paint off the bottom of the boat, then it could hurt or kill him. He tries to keep an eye on agents he feels could end up in danger easily. |

comment |
Involuntary Group Split: As the agents crawled through the pirate tunnels, falling jail bar gates cut them off from the tunnels' entrance behind them (their original way out) and then splitting up the team. They do try to get back together through side passages, but Li was tricked to follow lights she thought were Kate and Max's head-torches, and Max headed in many wrong direction when trying to go back the way he came. |

Left Hanging: Since the series discontinued before its end, a number of plot threads have been left unsolved. Such as the clue hunt for the next artifact after the crystal skull, the implication that there's a DUL mole in Ripley High, the reason why the DUL want to sabotage the RBI, and the reason behind Zia's abilities and silver streak. |

Free-Range Children: Teenagers traveling around the world alone to big cities like London and Tokyo, and dangerous wildernesses like Antarctica. Somewhat justified, they seem highly trained, skilled, and intelligent enough to handle locations like that on their own, and the teachers outside of the RBI don't actually know. Teachers believe the cover story for all the missions, that the three chosen RBI agents went on a field trip. |

Leeroy Jenkins: One of Max's flaws is his recklessness. Most notably in "Wings of Fear". Instead of using his wingsuit properly, he nosedived and then opened up his suit to get to the flying creature much quicker...which caused the extra material to rip, and Max himself to fall until the 'creature' saved him. |

comment |
Summation Gathering: Kate does so around in the last chapter of "Haunted Hotel", gathering the hotel employees in the gift shop to determine who is behind it. She narrowed it down to Allan, the replacement night manager. He had to explain after failing to make a run for it. He used holograms, make-up and costumes which matched the walls, and a switchboard to fake a haunting, because he was paid (three times more than his usual fee as a camouflage artist and entertainer) to do so by DUL and he needed the money for his family. He was going to quit after the original night manager fell down the stairs, but DUL weren't going to pay him unless he gets the agents to believe the hotel is haunted and leave. |

Taking the Bullet |
| | Ripley's Bureau of Investigation / int_9ce6492a |
comment |
Taking the Bullet: In "A Scaly Tale", when Zia realised the metal poles in their tent could conduct the lightning from the thunderstorm over their heads and kill them, she rushed outside to conduct a lightning strike herself. She did this because she had read RIPLEY's files about people who could absorb lightning and assumed her electromagnetic abilities would let to do the same, thereby saving her friends. Otherwise, the lightning would've struck the tent and killed Kobe and Jack, while she would've remained alive because of her powers. But this was only a guess, it could've killed her if she was wrong. She knew that and was still willing to save her friends rather than herself. |

Cool House: The school/mansion. Even when no one knows about the RBI's base underneath the school, the school is still a cool mansion filled with Robert Ripley's collection. Like a room exclusively for shrunken heads. Castle Warden in "Haunted Hotel" also counts as it doubles as one of Robert Ripley's museums, mentioned to have things like an animatronic T-Rex. Even outside of the museum section, there's interesting curios, like a painting made out of ants, a fortune teller machine, and wall skull lamps. |

Shout-Out: Kate's uncle is a history and part-time archeologist and their last name is JONES. Might be an extremely subtle attempt at making the two franchises be part of the same universe. Or probably just a reference. Mr Cain could be a shout-out to actor Dean Cain, host of the third incarnation of the Ripley's Believe It or Not television series. Jack's surname, Stevens, is more than likely a shout-out to Steve Irwin since he probably inspired Jack's character. |

Normally when Mr Cain sends a 'Museum Club' text message to summon agents for a mission briefing, he would add a dad joke/pun related to the mission. He didn't in the text message for the mission in "Haunted Hotel". Due to the importance and seriousness of the mission (employees of the upcoming Ripley hotel being endangered by hauntings), the text message is just 'Urgent - come at once!'. Even in the briefing, the usual five minutes of mingling time are cut short and the briefing immediately starts, with Mr Cain being all business. |

Mayor Pain: Type Two, concerning Mayor Reynolds in "Danger Underground". He downplayed all the news about the sink holes, monoxide poisoning, and fiery disasters, and viewed them as unrelated to each other. Even when the agents told him about the cause of the incidents, the underground coal mines being on fire, he dismissed them as overreacting kids because he was certain the coal mines have been emptied. He only got the town Copper Creek to evacuate once the sink holes started destroying the town centre, a little too late. He showed he was more ignorant than wicked when he almost sacrificed himself saving Zia and a little girl, he leapt off the team's Quad Buggy as it was soaring over a widening crevasse to ensure his weight doesn't cause the vehicle (with Zia driving and the little girl inside) to not reach the safe side. Almost, as in Alek and Kobe pulled him up before he could fall all the way down. He realised he was wrong after going through the town's destruction and apologises. |

The Bore: What Mr Willis is like when teaching to everyone but Kate. In "Haunted Hotel", when Kate and Max were crawling in the pirate tunnels, Max was getting bored because Kate went on and on about how the tunnels were made. Max was also annoyed that Kate managed to make something related to pirates sound boring. |

Info Dump: In-universe regarded as one in "Danger Underground", Kate lectured Jack (through a video link on an R-Phone) about mythological examples of multiheaded snakes as a way to help him. Jack doesn't find the infodump useful at all, but doesn't tell her, only politely thanking her. |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business |
| | Ripley's Bureau of Investigation / int_e83f211c |
comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: In the beginning of "Haunted Hotel", Max was glum because he had to wait a while to visit Jack in Australia, so much so that when the perfect opportunity came to prank Mr Clarkson (pulling a thread on his jumpsuit to ensure they're torn and fall down to his ankles), Max doesn't bother. Li and Kate were stunned by his out-of-character behaviour, even Kate was hoping he would take the opportunity to cheer himself up. Normally when Mr Cain sends a 'Museum Club' text message to summon agents for a mission briefing, he would add a dad joke/pun related to the mission. He didn't in the text message for the mission in "Haunted Hotel". Due to the importance and seriousness of the mission (employees of the upcoming Ripley hotel being endangered by hauntings), the text message is just 'Urgent - come at once!'. Even in the briefing, the usual five minutes of mingling time are cut short and the briefing immediately starts, with Mr Cain being all business. |

Speaks Fluent Animal: Downplayed. This is Jack's main ability, but it's not portrayed in a typical 'he can hear English out of animals and vice versa' way. He can easily interpret animal noises, make similar animal noises and sing-song whispers to soothe animals, establish very basic communication with animals, and has a strong mutual bond with them. |

Thrown Down a Well |
| | Ripley's Bureau of Investigation / int_fb027f60 |
comment |
Thrown Down a Well: In "Haunted Hotel", after crawling through the pirate tunnels and being washed away, Kate accidentally gets trapped in a flooding underground shaft. The current was too strong to go back through the tunnel and the way out was ten meters above her, covered by a metal grate (intentionally screwed down recently). So the only way she could make it out was by waiting for the water level to rise, to reach the grate. If she doesn't drown first. |
