We'll stand back to back, Cadbury! First, I'll try to untie your bonds, then you try mine!
Richie and Cadbury try every effort to escape while the ransom note is delivered to Mr. Rich. Richie and Cadbury successfully set themselves free, and the crooks are ready to attack. But since they got defeated, they decide to hunt down the ransom left behind a Route 19 sign, and when they arrive, they were surrounded by the police. Unfortunately, Gloria was nowhere to be found in the hideout, but little does Richie know that Gloria was not kidnapped at all; in fact, she went to a school play where she was the star, and it was her uncle who drove her to the event!
