Carmen Sandiego / int_11c754d8	comment	Trail of Bread Crumbs: Julia finds the A.C.M.E. agents that had taken Chase in episode 4 by following the trail of mints that Chase had accidentally spilled all over the parking garage floor after getting knocked out. It worked despite the small number of candies in the roll by the fact that he was taken to a utility room less than fifty feet away.

V.I.L.E. masks its real intentions by not disclosing the actual meaning of its acronym to new cadets (going with the name "Valuable Imports, Lavish Exports"). However once they graduate to full operatives, they are inducted into the organization's real purpose, along with learning its actual name: Villains International League of Evil. Inverted with A.C.M.E., which is the "Agency to Classify and Monitor Evildoers".

Here, V.I.L.E. skips past "possibility" and explicitly engages in attempted murder. But unlike in some other iterations, this Carmen won't stand for it.

Of course, most parents (with rare exceptions) aren't criminal masterminds.

Carmen must later give Zack these lessons in "The Duke of Vermeer Caper" when V.I.L.E. agent Dash Haber arrives early to a meeting and is looking for "The Duchess," an alias Carmen is using, but Zack opens the door and improvises himself as "The Duke." These lessons range from table manners, to art history, and to diction lessons so Zack won't speak with his native Bostonian accent.

Carmen Sandiego / int_1994ba0b	comment	Gone Horribly Right: The way Carmen describes her childhood, one of the top criminal organizations took her in when she was a baby, and raised her with love and a thorough education. It also gave her a sense of compassion, which meant she got a Heel Realization when she saw that her family kills people, and recklessly at that. When she finally enrolled, it gave her an intimate understanding of Bellum’s inventions, Brunt’s fighting techniques, the way Maelstrom’s twisted mind works, and Countess Cleo’s style. While she definitely isn’t able to go toe to toe with the faculty directly yet, her training gives her the ability to identify and target V.I.L.E. locations and schemes.

Carmen Sandiego / int_1c9537cd	comment	The Main Characters Do Everything: Chase insists on catching Carmen single-handedly in the pilot, which is the main reason why he fails. If he'd thought to call ahead to have some other police officers stop and search the train at its next stop instead of personally chasing it all the way to Paris, he might have caught her as well as Gray. Despite the V.I.L.E. Academy producing forty graduates a year, and has for decades, only one episode in the first season has any agent appear other than Carmen's ex-dormmates (who only made up an eighth of their graduating class), her teachers, or the cleaners, all of whom were introduced in the pilot. Season 2 manages to introduce some other V.I.L.E. field operatives as well as show that V.I.L.E. has grunts beyond their elite thief academy graduates as part of a Story Arc involving who will take up Shadowsan's place in the council.. The Cleaners not only function as the janitors at V.I.L.E. Academy, they're involved in every other figurative aspect of "cleaning up" for V.I.L.E., from apparently handling a money laundring operation to extracting captured assets. Which would make more sense if there were more than two Cleaners.

Carmen Sandiego / int_1f6983f7	comment	Ambiguous Situation: Initially no one is sure if Gray after his memory is erased is a potential sleeper agent. Player points out the possibility, since V.I.L.E. released subliminal brainwashing at the Sydney Opera House, where Carmen and a rocket scientist were affected. He says that Gray may be a trap for Carmen since V.I.L.E. knew about their friendship. Carmen doesn't believe it, but she thinks it's best to leave Gray in his new life, since if V.I.L.E. knew they renewed their friendship then he could become a target. In the first season finale, it's unclear if Shadowsan will continue to be a mole for Carmen or if he outed himself by knocking out Coach Brunt. This gets resolved early in season 2.

Zack and Ivy go from fighting against Carmen to working with her (though she's undergone Adaptational Heroism), and season 2 reveals they were trying to avoid being thieves but had to pay off money from a loanshark with this one job that led them to meeting Carmen. There's also a character called Player, who works with Carmen and is meant to represent the player character. While in the other series, the player contended against Carmen, here Player is an anti-hero white hat hacker who breaks into computer systems. Originally it was to tell people how to boost their protections, now it is to fight a criminal organization but still using illegal means. In the original show Suhara was Carmen’s partner and mentor in A.C.M.E. Here, it's Shadowsan's real name. And of course, A.C.M.E. is the Law Enforcement organization the protagonists are affiliated with, but here, they're an enemy faction.

This estranged him from his brother and means he can't go home even after he risks his life to return the daisho to the museum. Lampshaded by Carmen.

Carmen Sandiego / int_2af6bbeb	comment	Break the Haughty: Season 1 is this for Chase Devineaux, as misfortunes pile up on him, largely due to his own arrogance and tendency to rush in without thinking. It actually turns out good, as it inspires him to show what he can really do, when he spends Season 2 investigating on his own and tracks down V.I.L.E.'s headquarters by himself, only arriving just a little too late. Upon his reinstatement to A.C.M.E. at the beginning of Season 3, he becomes much more competant over the rest of the series. It also helps that the Chief made him take a defensive driving course.

Carmen Sandiego / int_2cb9b1a9	comment	Cool, but Inefficient: A.C.M.E.'s Instant Sedation guns seem like a good way to perform an instant non-lethal takedown on bad guys, but are in practice pretty useless. This is especially shown in "The Stockholm Syndrome Caper." They have very short range, one agent manages to knock herself out because she apparently forgot that gas spreadsnote Which, incidentally, is also a flaw of real-world misting weapons like mace and pepper spray - they can affect the user as well as the target., and even when Zari gets a direct shot right in Carmen's face it doesn't actually take Carmen down straight away, but allows her to escape on her hang glider just before she passes out, and ends up crashing just outside the city limits.

She then devotes herself to bringing them down... while still being a crook herself. V.I.L.E, whatever their ulterior motives, took in an abandoned baby and raised her as their own with a cushy life, a thorough education that made her The Ace, and something close to love. It made Carmen turning on them much harder, because Brunt was a Doting Parent and truly cared about her. That is, if what they told Carmen about rescuing her as a baby was true; even Carmen has been questioning the story for a while. Gray admits that while he was willing to return to V.I.L.E, he was horrified that Carmen was basically brainwashed and forced to accept what he had as a choice.

Carmen Sandiego / int_38d02d44	comment	Batman Gambit: Carmen's heist of The Eye of Vishnu was a trick to get the law authorities to investigate the apartment she robbed, and for them to realize it was a V.I.L.E. hideout with all the stolen artifacts hidden there. Julia makes the connection as Interpol investigates. Mime Bomb performs one in "The Lucky Cat Caper". When detained by Chase and Julia with a stolen stamp in his possession, he covertly slips the stamp into Chase's pocket. No longer having it in his possession, they let him go, but tail him afterwards - which allows Tigress to steal the stamp back later. Both sides pull this off in "The Daisho Caper". Lady Dokuso coats a pair of chopsticks with poison, knowing that Shadowsan will pick them up and use them as weapons. Meanwhile, Carmen tricks Paper Star by having Zack cover a string of paper lanterns with glue, so that they'll stick to her when she tries to use them for origami. Both sides again in a big way in "The Jolly Good Caper". Roundabout plans a heist of England's Crown Jewels from the Tower of London for Carmen to foil, relying on her stealing the jewels first in a two-minute window with the security off, only to turn the security back on halfway through and get her arrested, then she'll be turned over to the Cleaners while he steals the real crown jewels. Turns out Carmen's team expected all of it, had Zack and Ivy drive the paddy wagon, recorded Roundabout's theft and planted the jewels in his office, and lured him out into the open where the authorities would arrest him, crippling V.I.L.E.'s ability to get their prisoners released with his influence.

Shadowsan hoped that at least with the former option that Carmen wouldn't become a thief and throw her life away; he didn't intend for her to defect entirely. Shadowsan faced this dilemma with hindsight. He could either pass Carmen, which would lead her to become a thief, or he could fail her with a rigged exam, and give her another year to pass his class. If he kept failing her, the other teachers would have smelled a rat. And of course, thanks to him goading "Black Sheep" about her failure when she proved she could pick his pockets without a problem and wanted a second chance, she ended up taking the worst course possible for him; to defect and openly turn against V.I.L.E., putting her in even more danger than she was before.

Carmen Sandiego / int_41a3e267	comment	Hidden in Plain Sight: As might be expected of a mime, after stealing the $10 million stamp, Mime Bomb sits out in the open reading an invisible newspaper. This being San Francisco, no one pays him a second glance. V.I.L.E. as a whole is into this ("[They] never operate without a smokescreen"), choosing to use plots that involve deploying their operation or moving stolen goods in a way that would be beneath notice (such as smuggling rare gemstones out of Brazil by using an amphibious parade float in the middle of Carnival). Carmen herself likes to do this, ditching all but maybe one piece of red clothing and redoing her hair when she's not trying to pull a job. However, in a subversion, both Chase Devineaux and A.C.M.E. know her face well enough that she can still be identified even without her red accessories. In season 2 Carmen acquires a long-term base of operations, a factory once owned by Carmen's of San Diego, the clothing outlet that she took her name from. The sign is still up, and the building itself is bright red. Ironically, despite his status as the V.I.L.E. faculty stealth expert, Shadowsan's old-world Japanese garb doesn't let him blend in well with casual citizens, especially tourists so he acquires a set of less conspicuous clothing during season 2.

The agent was a young Shadowsan, but he doesn't know any more about her past than that himself. Her past was finally revealed in the second season finale: her father was Dexter Wolfe, a V.I.L.E. agent and former member of its inner circle who tried to defect, only for his colleagues to send an assassin (Shadowsan) after him. However, they weren't the only ones after him; the same night Shadowsan went to kill Wolfe, Interpol raided his mansion and he was shot dead by a younger Chief (who thought he was about to pull a gun on them). Shadowsan took baby Carmen back to headquarters with him afterwards, and the faculty decided to raise her as one of their own after she shows potential as a thief. The Matroyska dolls were the only thing that could calm her down.

In order: He takes a 2-story plummet into the bonnet of his car, gets insulted by the Chief in favour of Argent when he joins A.C.M.E. (admittedly justified though it was), tortured by Brunt to the point of being comatose, fired by the Chief as he wakes up from said coma, is told to never talk to Argent again even though she is the only friend the show has revealed he has, gets sent back to Interpol by the Chief who has decided to bust him down to "File Clerk" out of sheer pettiness, spends all his time at work doing boring paperwork, continues his investigation into Carmen in his own time at his own expense and figures out exactly where V.I.L.E. Island is only to arrive one week after they destroyed and abandoned it, finds himself stranded on said island for another week, is rescued when he accidentally burns down his shelter; and is finally fired from his File Clerk job from Interpol upon his return for not turning up for a fortnight. Tough times. The length of bare screen alone shown here gives a good idea how much he goes through. Thankfully, things get better for him from Season 3 onwards. To some degree, Dash Haber as well. In all his appearances either Zack or Ivy would make a fool of him, and he proves no match for Carmen.

When she's doing a job, she wears very auspicious red accessories (a wide-brimmed red fedora and a red trenchcoat or a red cocktail dress if she's doing something requiring a modicum of formality), along with having her full head of hair sweeping in the breeze. If she's trying to blend in, she wears unassuming civilian clothes (at most maybe adding one red piece) and has her hair done up differently. However, the people who pursue her (A.C.M.E. and Chase Devineaux) don't let simple changes of clothes deceive them and they can still pick Carmen out regardless of what she's wearing by knowing her face.

Turns out to be invoked. V.I.L.E. intentionally alters a subjects personality when their memories are wiped to keep them out of situations that would stir up lingering traces of their time with V.I.L.E. After A.C.M.E. attempts to return Gray's memories in season 4, at his own request, his criminal impulses come back with a vengance and he outright tells Carmen that needing to be the "good guys" was never who he was. He gladly rejoins V.I.L.E., although he soon regrets his decision when the heads of V.I.L.E brainwash Carmen so much that she nearly kills Zack!

His hotheadedness and tendency to shoot first and ask questions later got him fired from A.C.M.E. and sent back to Interpol, along with a demotion from inspector to file clerk. This kick in the pants motivates him to step up his game, and he manages to do in one month what A.C.M.E. couldn't do in 20 years, by figuring out the exact location of V.I.L.E.'s headquarters. Unfortunately he doesn't make it to V.I.L.E.

This led to her defection because she snuck out to spite him and his rigged exam. It turns out his intention was to keep her from becoming a thief because he was worried she was throwing her life away. Carmen herself became this when she tagged along with the graduates' mission. It led her to save a man's life because he was an innocent and opened her eyes to what V.I.L.E. really was. In the Duke of Vermeer caper, Carmen and Player outline their plan to retrieve all 34 Vermeer paintings... and then that got derailed when Zack accidentally opens the doors too soon — thinking it was room service — only to meet with Dash Haber, one of Countess Cleo's underlings — and the group has to change it so that Zack appears as a Duke. In the same episode, Chase crashing Countess Cleo's dinner just before Zack puked at eating caviar (he's known to hate fish) is what gives Carmen and Ivy some extra time to swipe the last painting.

Carmen Sandiego / int_6b12fcfb	comment	Season 3 gives us the Bumbling Henchmen Duo Spinkick and Flytrap. Despite being graduates of V.I.L.E. Academy who specifically majored in a course dedicated to teaching them how to hunt and fight Carmen, they're really not very competent, getting easily beaten by Carmen in all of their encounters with her. They even lose to Sonia, a girl much younger than them who is a naturally talented thief but not trained in combat. They're also easily tricked.

He was the one who sabotaged the Janitors' helicopter when Carmen made her getaway, and would have joined Carmen in the boat if he had made it in time. Season 2: Carmen's father was Dexter Wolfe, a V.I.L.E. operative that Shadowsan was ordered to kill after he apparently defected. However, Shadowsan was beaten to the punch by an Interpol agent — specifically, the head of A.C.M.E. And her mother is possibly still alive.

Carmen Sandiego / int_6d7026fa	comment	Punny Name: Aside from Dr. Saira Bellum, this has mostly been avoided, as lampshaded by Gray's initial attempt at a codename "Graham Crackle". Countess Cleo's underling Dash Haber may count as a Stealth Pun, as a haberdasher is a men's tailor. In season 2, he poses as a haberdasher for a fashion show and his weapon is a razor-brimmed hat he can control with a device in his glove, which seems to confirm the intentional pun. The name of one character is Vera Cruz, which could be a subtle pun on the name of the Mexican city Veracruz. Carmen points out that it sounds like an alias. It was, as the real name of Carmen’s mother was Carlotta Valdez. V.I.L.E.'s accountant, Cookie Booker. Her job with V.I.L.E. is to "cook the books".

In "The Opera in the Outback Caper", scientist Janeanne Denam is given a Brown Note hypnotizing which will compel her to launch her defective rocket when she hears "The Habanera" from the opera Carmen. The crew immediately drives out to Heliogen to stop her. It turns out, Janeanne never listens to opera when she's working because she gets too emotional, and was instead listening to a podcast on her earbuds, and would likely not have even heard the song when V.I.L.E. started playing it over the lab's speakers. However, being there leads to Carmen starting the launch sequence herself, due to having also heard the subliminal message. Carmen pickpocketing Devineaux's A.C.M.E. keycard becomes this when Paper Star pickpockets it from her in turn and brings it back to V.I.L.E., making them aware of A.C.M.E.'s existence.

Carmen Sandiego / int_8e20979	comment	Wham Episode: Episode 4 reveals Julia and Chase being accepted into A.C.M.E. Episode 6: Grey has his memories erased of being a V.I.L.E. thief and Carmen must part ways with him. Episode 9: Shadowsan reveals his true colors to Carmen, handing her a new V.I.L.E. hard-drive and the Chief of A.C.M.E. finally meets face to face with Carmen Sandiego. Season 2, episode 10, Shadowsan reveals Carmen's past; in that she was the daughter of the former Stealth 101 instructor Dexter Wolfe who was shot —by accident — by the woman would become Chief of A.C.M.E. After Carmen hacks into A.C.M.E.'s database, Chief declares war on Carmen and reinstates Chase into A.C.M.E. to go after her. Season 3, episode 5, Roundabout is captured by the authorities after stealing England's Crown Jewels. Since he was the one responsible for extracting other captured operatives, even though he himself was claimed by the Cleaners, future arrests are more likely to stick. Meanwhile, Chase is starting to realize that Julia was right and the Chief is finally going to get her hands on Crackle. Season 4, episode 6, Carmen and the Chief finally see eye to eye again, following A.C.M.E.'s investigation into Carmen's past and Carmen busting V.I.L.E.'s historic vault of stolen treasures from centuries ago. The bond between Carmen and the Chief seems mended, and Carmen is on her way to finding out the truth about her mother... until the Cleaners ambush her and kidnap her, declaring Carmen "belongs to V.I.L.E. now".

They sadly didn't carry hints to her past, though Carmen tried to investigate them. She ends up leaving them behind when she defects, symbolically abandoning the story of her Mysterious Past to make a better future. Then she re-steals them from a V.I.L.E. hideout, and it's revealed to have been a trap that Gray set (though she was expecting that). The Season 2 finale reveals that they were one of the only things that could calm her down, and Season 4 reveals that her birth mother - still very much alive - held onto the last piece, which Shadowsan used to break Carmen free from V.I.L.E.'s mind control.

When Shadow-san was sent to assassinate him, he balked on realizing that the defector had a child. Cue the Chief showing up with Interpol and shooting Carmen's father, forcing Shadowsan to flee with the baby back to V.I.L.E. island. This led to Carmen being raised by the same people her parents were trying to flee, and Shadow-san trying to make amends for his mistake. Carmen, when she hears the story, refuses to ally with A.C.M.E. and hacks into their system to find out if the story is true.

Carmen Sandiego / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: It's Shadowsan who gives Carmen the warning about no turning back if she becomes a thief. He's the one who helped kickstart Carmen's defection from V.I.L.E. and has his own regrets now for the life he chose and cannot escape from. In the second episode, Carmen's presumed timing isn't right. She had just left the main building making a beeline to the boat. There was no way she had time to make a detour to the chopper to disable it, or when she would have as she was inside at all prior points in the episode. The only answer is someone else helped her and the only other person present already outside is Shadowsan. When Zack and Ivy meet Le Chevre for the first time (from our perspective), Ivy freaks out when Zack mentions Boston Harbor. The flashback episode reveals that they had actually briefly met him there a few months earlier. While he doesn't seem to recognize them, Ivy has every reason to believe he would. The use of the opera Carmen is more than just a pun. The song they use from it, the Habanera aria, is about the dangers before people and not recognizing it, such as the subliminal messaging in the attack and how the theatrical Carmen is like smoke, unattainable and uncatchable, and pursuing her will lead to tragedy, both befitting the cartoon Carmen's skill at evasion and her avoiding Gray to avoid bringing him back into danger in the end. When Player is giving the info-dump about Botswana, he tells them to watch out for "tigers in the grass," and Carmen calls him out on joking, since tigers are native to Asia, not southern Africa. Later, she's ambushed by Tigress in the grass.

Carmen Sandiego / int_acf33d00	type	Nice Job Fixing It, Villain
Carmen Sandiego / int_acf33d00	comment	Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: V.I.L.E. giving Carmen a decent childhood and education while raising her led to her developing a sense of compassion that put her at odds with her family's murderous intents. One of Carmen's teachers at V.I.L.E. named Shadowsan ensures her failure on an Unwinnable by Design pickpocketing test while applauding a more unscrupulous classmate's methods because he doesn't approve of Carmen's special treatment by the other teachers. This spurs Carmen towards trying to prove herself by sneaking on an actual caper of her newly graduated class's and realizing the lengths to which V.I.L.E. was willing to go to acquire items, thus prompting her Heel–Face Turn. If the teacher had just tested her normally, Carmen would still be "Black Sheep" and in V.I.L.E.'s pocket for a little longer. Subverted when it’s revealed he did this on purpose because he didn’t want her to become a thief. Gray firing on an innocent man, and refusing to listen when she saves the man's life and calls him out for it, led to Carmen's disillusionment and eventual defection. It also ended their friendship when she saw what he really was. The fact that V.I.L.E. chose to shelter Carmen from their more brutal nature left her completely shocked and disillusioned with her beloved family, if they had not gone to such lengths to hide their unscrupulousness, she might’ve remained under their thumb and not become their greatest enemy. Coach Brunt tells Carmen the truth that Shadow-san found her when he was sent to murder her father in the hopes of driving the two of them apart, and it seems to work for a bit... but when she does talk to him about it and hears his side of the story, it just brings the two even closer. Had V.I.L.E. not promoted the brainwashed Carmen to faculty, she wouldn't have been able to lead law enforcement to their headquarters after being freed of mind control since only faculty would have that exclusive knowledge. Tigress lampshades how bad the decision was, much to the annoyance of the female leaders of V.I.L.E.

Carmen Sandiego / int_afc6df04	comment	What You Are in the Dark: After she was busting for sneaking out with the graduates and finding out that V.I.L.E. encourages reckless murder, Carmen was given a slap on the wrist: she had her stolen phone confiscated, had the teachers constantly watching and psych-evaluating her, and received a giant hug from a worrying Coach Brunt. Carmen could have easily trained to become a thief anyway and ignore her morals, remained the V.I.L.E. equivalent of a Mafia Princess and never leave the island, or even try to become an Internal Reformist as upward as that journey would be. Instead, she bid her time, re-stole the phone, and made her escape an open defection against V.I.L.E. Freedom wasn't enough, and stealing wasn't enough. She was going to take down V.I.L.E. from the outside for lying to her all her life and killing people. "The Boston Tea Party Caper" has Zack and Ivy stuffing themselves with the counterfeit money that La Chevre and El Topo are about to get away with. It's enough to pay back their loan and fix up their car. Instead, they decide to recreate the Boston Tea Party and dump the money into the water although they do try to stuff some money under their shirts until Carmen reminds them that they'll be caught by the police.

Moose is Dumb Muscle who can't stop blabbing all their plans to everyone around him and ends up defeating himself by accident. Otter Man thinks of himself as an Evil Genius but that's really just in comparison to Moose; his actual intellect seems to be just average. They're not even beaten by Carmen, but instead by Ivy, who they thought was Carmen, and who bumbles her way through the entire encounter but still easily defeats them. Of course, they lose quite a few sympathy points by participating in one of the most evil crimes of the series - attempting to sell nuclear launch codes to a rogue nation. Season 3 gives us the Bumbling Henchmen Duo Spinkick and Flytrap. Despite being graduates of V.I.L.E. Academy who specifically majored in a course dedicated to teaching them how to hunt and fight Carmen, they're really not very competent, getting easily beaten by Carmen in all of their encounters with her. They even lose to Sonia, a girl much younger than them who is a naturally talented thief but not trained in combat. They're also easily tricked.

Carmen Sandiego / int_e63fa5f9	comment	Red/Green Contrast: Used extensively throughout the show; red is used to represent Carmen and her allies, while green is used to represent V.I.L.E. This even extends to how certain scenes are tinted; scenes where V.I.L.E. has the upper hand or when things are just generally going badly for Carmen are tinted green, while scenes where Carmen has the upper hand or is just doing well in general are tinted red. In fact, this also serves as subtle foreshadowing towards the big twist at the end of season 1: rewatching the episodes with the color symbolism in mind means you'll pay more attention to the fact that several of Shadowsan's scenes are tinted red. It's also significant that in the Season 4 scenes where Chase meets with Julia in her college office, Julia is wearing a red shirt, putting her firmly on Carmen's side while Chase, who is still on the fence but beginning to believe Julia was right about Carmen, is wearing a shirt with a red stripe along the sleeves and shoulders.

He wants to steal a gold doubloon of great cultural significance just so he can melt it down and make himself a pair of cufflinks that would make Countess Cleo green with envy.

Carmen Sandiego / int_f0084ee5	comment	Impossible Theft: A notable aversion. Considering her origins, it would almost be expected for Carmen to try and steal impossibly large monuments. Instead, all the thefts are plausible, if extreme. The most elaborate theft is all 34 works of Verneer.

Carmen Sandiego / int_f08aac64	comment	Thou Shall Not Kill: The reason why Carmen decides to turn against V.I.L.E. She witnessed Gray attempting to murder an innocent man in order to Leave No Witnesses. And near the end of season 4, this is also the reason why Gray gets himself captured and tells A.C.M.E. about Carmen's brainwashing and everything they need to find her, stop her, and restore her to herself—because after seeing her nearly kill Zack, he realizes how far she has been changed from her true self against her will, after he had insisted he never wanted to see her hurt again.

Using only a corkboard, some red yarn, and a few files from Interpol he manages to deduce the location of V.I.L.E.'s headquarters over the course of a month, which is something that A.C.M.E. with all of their technology and manpower couldn't do in 20 years.

This is shown with Shadowsan's brother, who doesn't automatically forgive his younger brother for abandoning him for a life of crime even after he returns the swords.

Specifically, by choosing to leave Tigress stuck in the trap and lying to Julia at the charity gala. If you do the latter on the good ending route and the former on the Golden Ending path, Carmen will suffer no consequences for her actions.

Carmen Sandiego / int_f9f2c33	type	Running Gag
Carmen Sandiego / int_f9f2c33	comment	Running Gag: There are a few minor ones, like how every time V.I.L.E. is mentioned to have made a food product the flavor is compared to the company name, or how the show loves to show off Zack and Ivy's Southie accents with common phrases that are known to exaggerate it. Starting in Season 2, Zack is repeatedly referred to as a Duke, based on his disguise from "The Vermeer Caper". Ivy is similarly referred to as a rocket scientist, thanks to the events of "The Opera in the Outback Caper". "Protect the face" comes up repeatedly when Carmen is fighting her former classmates. It's Coach Brunt's first rule of self-defense, and Carmen's go-to maneuver is either attacking the face or threatening to as a distraction. And Shadowsan even gets to use it back on Brunt, taunting her that she didn't do this, when nearly defeating her in combat in "The VILE History Caper". Chase simply cannot drive a car without some disaster happening to it.

Each one takes a different level of intimacy and love towards their ward with Coach Brunt pampering and spoiling the young girl to Shadowsan's standoffish behavior. The rest are somewhere in between. It is a genuinely happy relationship, which makes Carmen's recognition of how evil they could be and her betraying them all the more shocking to, as she puts it, the only family she's ever known.

There's also the graduates Le Chèvre and El Topo, a duo that never goes on missions without each other (barring "The Chasing Paper Caper" where only La Chèvre appears) that respectively strike high and low. Season 2 features The Mechanic and The Driver both of whom work together to steal a super car in the episode "The Need For Speed Caper". Otter Man and Moose Boy, another pair of operatives who appear to have worked with each other for some time. Season 3 gives us two more graduates, Spinkick and Flytrap. They specifically majored in a class dedicated to teaching them how to catch Carmen Sandiego, and they always fight together.
