Prequel Series Question

Note: I may be a bit lazy with the locations and may put creative spin on the 1980s and locations (e.g. Secret vaults, lazers)

Here is the fic so far just so that you get the gist:

Chase Devineaux HC

So I rewatched the show and picked up some of Devineaux's movie references. And thus I present you this head canon:

Between the time he was terminated from Interpol and returning to ACME in Season 2, he was really sad. He got so sad that he just watched Netflix (fourth wall break. HA!) and binged every single movie. From Jurassic Park to really crappy movies.

However, he refused to watch documentaries because he has no time for "dull facts and boring things"

[1nconcievable]

HA! I HAVE MADE A START ON THE FIC!

Well, it’s more of a Prologue in the present day... BUT I DIGRESS!

Chapters: 3/? Fandom: Carmen Sandiego (Cartoon 2019) Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Characters: Dexter Wolfe, Lee Jordan, vile Series: Part 1 of Carmen Sandiego: Prequel Summary:

It's a high time for VILE: Capers are always being delivered by the Legendary VILE Faculty Members "The Wolfe" (Dexter Wolfe) and "River" (Lee Jordan), sometimes individually or as a dynamic duo.

Yet a choice or two from our 2 criminals may have dire consequences and the life they want may not be what society thinks they deserve. After all, all criminals go to hell right?

Alright... so I've seen some Dexter Wolfe Fanfic and I thought I might as well add my own. This sorta is a backstory for the 2019 series and my Fan Continuation. Expect very few updates and cringy writing.

NOTE: I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE ORIGINAL 2019 CHARACTERS OR THE NAMES FROM THE ORIGINAL CARMEN SANDIEGO 1990 CARTOON.

Is it just me or does Devineaux enjoy making movie references before he crashes?

Proof:

"You jump I jump"

Devineaux in Duke of Vermeer Caper (Titanic)

"ACME Agents in mirrors are closer than they appear"

Devineaux in The Haunted Bayou Caper (Jurassic Park?)

The Jolly Good Show Caper (A British Retrospective) [Obviously Spoilers for that Episode]

As someone who is half British, has been to London, lived in England for a while, has studied History as part of my GCSEs (or high school if you're in America) and considering its November the 5th as of writing, I felt it was my obligation for me to look back on The Season 3 Episode 5 "The Jolly Good Show" and give my thoughts on it. (Don't worry its just me waffling about an episode and what I think. It's just for the fun of it. ALSO sorry if I got some things wrong)

(DISCLAIMER: I have not been to the Tower of London in person, I just did my own research. I am also not a professional when it comes to all history. So make sure you fact check and let me know in the comments)

So anyway, I tried to do it in order. Here we go:

Zack saying that they're driving on the wrong side of the road is probably not that surprising considering that roughly 30% of the world's countries and 35% of the world's population drive on the left which includes England.

Player describing the Tower of London as a fortress, prison etc is pretty spot on. I highly recommend going there yourself

Carmen saying that St Edwards Crown was used to crown all of the Kings and Queens since 1911 is half wrong. According to Wikipedia (I'M SORRY):

Versions of it have traditionally been used to crown English and British monarchs at their coronations since the 13th century

The original crown was a holy relic kept at Westminster Abbey, Edward the Confessor's burial place, until it was either sold or melted down when Parliament abolished the monarchy in 1649, during the English Civil War.

The crown used today was made for Charles II in 1661 to crown him. It's similar in weight and size to the original but its arches are Baroque.

The reason why Carmen may have said what she said was because the tradition of using St Edwards Crown to crown Kings and Queens was revived by George V in 1911

Player is right to say that there were attempts to steal the crown jewels. The most well known is Colonel Blood's attempt. Funnily enough, the guy got out scot free and still got his pension. https://youtu.be/iRmBE6B8F7I

Player also describing Bondfire night is pretty spot on. The Gunpowder Plot happened in Nov 5 1605 as a result of a group of Catholic men, led by Robert Catesby (not Guy Fawkes), trying to rebel against the Protestant King James 1 because Catholics back then weren't on the best of terms. Unfortunately the plot resulted in stricter laws against Catholics, don't worry the laws don't exist now.

Player "So, he was considered a hero or a villain, depending on who you ask"

Well, I've talked with some people and although we understand that the Gunpowder Plot was done because of the prejudice and oppression of Catholics in 1605 England, we agreed that maybe they should have dealt their anger differently. Maybe a way that doesn't lead them to getting hung, drawn and quartered. Either way, it's a complicated question that's up for you to decide.

Speaking of Catholics, I did go to a Catholic school and they don't celebrate bondfire night. My history teacher did ask if they could do it but bc Guy Fawkes was a Catholic and as Player said... they burn him... Can you see the problem?

And Shadowsan calling Bondfire Night chaos?..... how - dare - you.

The whole "if the ravens leave the tower, the kingdom will fall" is an actual myth that the writers were spot on about. Charles II is thought to have been the first to insist that the ravens of the Tower be protected after he was warned that the crown and the Tower itself would fall if they left. That's why the raven's wings are carefully maintained and there's even a Raven Master.

Carmen saying "That's not the loo" is kinda on point. Normally they would also say "loo" or toilet. Also, Ik this is a cartoon, but I can assure you that the guards would be a little more suspicious if she got into a place she wasn't supposed to.

The entire Zack and Ivy fish and chips thing is on point. Although some places still use newspapers, we normally just use hard paper like newspaper to wrap it. Ivy also saying chips and crisps is also correct, glad she was paying attention.

Zack feeding fish to the ravens is not allowed. sniff sniff... He really is a criminal through and through. I'm so proud. (JK! It's a joke. Don't feed the ravens!)

The Troll says "London Bridge is falling down my fair lady". This was to communicate the death of the Queen to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and key personnel, setting Operation London Bridge in motion. So theoretically, does The Troll and VILE want Carmen (the Queen) dead? Jeez, why did I go that dark?

Fun fact: 1968 and 1971 the bridge's facing stone was dismantled and shipped across the Atlantic Ocean to the U.S. state of Arizona.

When The Troll says that Red Rat is ready for takeaway - there is a takeaway box (like take out in America) next to him... and it's even Chinese. Not gonna lie, I'd go for the Indian takeaway instead.

When Carmen gets "arrested", the police uniforms that some of them wear are based on The Bermuda Police Service and to be honest in November, the Metropolitan Police would be wearing yellow jackets. Seriously, how are these people not freezing!?! If this was real life, at least the police would search Carmen's coat and let her wear it if it's that cold!

When Roundabout steals the Crown Jewels (wow... never thought I'd say that), he doesn't wear gloves. This isn't a British thing but generally, why would he do this without gloves? Like, if you're being a professional criminal, you would know not to leave fingerprints anywhere. Honestly it feels like Carmen is the only one who follows this logic!

Funny that Roundabout (an Englishman) gives the jewels to Le Chevre (Frenchman). Sorry, there is a joke that England and France have been rivals for centuries and it still exists in rugby and football (or soccer). SORRY AGAIN!

Throughout the episode they refer the iconic bell tower as "Big Ben". In actuality the name of the tower is Elizabeth Tower and Big Ben is used as a name for the largest bell in the tower. Ironically, the Big Ben bell might be where Shadowsan picks up his weapon.

When Zari drives Devineaux, the seating inside the car is correct for British Standards of driving.

When Roundabout is about to stab Shadowsan, he says "Mind The Gap". I've used the Underground and the saying is commonly used as a visual and audio warning that you hear all the time.

When Roundabout says "you git", it's pretty mild to what most actually use. If it's casual we would use the b or c word (I'll give you a hint. The b rhymes with mastered and the c one rhymes with Brunt.) but I can't say it because I don't want any younger ones using it yet. ;)

Carmen :"Sorry mate"

Look, it's a cartoon... but that... that hurt my soul. THAT IS FAR FROM A CONVINCING ACCENT! British can tell from a mile away!

You could've said "Sorry, love" or "Sorry, you alright?"

AHAHSHegJHSGFFB.... Apologies.

Towards the end of the episode, Team Red are standing at Westminster Bridge.

The "God Save the Queen" in the credits is obviously outdated but it was fun to listen to.

My opinion:

Most British terms are used correctly.

Most of the facts are accurate according to what I looked up

Everyone involved needs to get thick jackets for November weather, especially in the evening.

Police uniforms for some are incorrect but some are right.

WORK ON YOUR ACCENT TEAM RED!

Back to accents, I feel like most of the British cast had the Queens accent like what most media portays. It would have been nice to see other accents like cockney, scouse etc.

I thought it was a good episode and the scene of Carmen getting arrested gave me chills.

Anyway, that's what I thought. Thanks for reading.

REMEMBER REMEMBER THE 5TH OF NOVEMBER!

Carmen Sandiego Incorrect Quotes

Zack: Ah shit, I forgot. Ivy: Forgot what? Zack: How do you expect me to answer that? ----- Ivy: Can you be serious for five minutes? Zack: My record is four, but I think I can do it. ------ Player: I did it! I memorized everything in the book! I'm gonna ace this test! Zack: Ok, Player, I'll give you one more question before you go. What ended in 1918? Player: 1917. Zack: …You're ready. ------ Player: What's the scariest horror movie you've ever watched? Carmen: IT. Ivy: Annabelle. Shadowsan: Paranormal Activity. Zack: High School Musical. All throughout high school I was scared that everyone was gonna randomly get up and start singing and dancing, and I would be the only one who doesn't know the words. ------ Julia: Isn’t it a bit dangerous? Devineaux: Agent Argent, please. We’ve been in a lot of unexpected predicaments before and we always escape unhurt. Julia:... Devineaux: Okay, we sometimes escape unhurt. Julia: … Devineaux: Alright, we escaped unhurt once… Then we hurt ourselves on the way home.

Hate me all you want but I like to write fanfic. I gotta get my creative juices flowing somehow. Especially for Carmen Sandiego

[Controversial] Pineapple on Pizza is amazing!

Did you know that humans are the only species on this planet to have chins?

I guess you could say that VILE attempts for villainy go a bit "vile" don't they.

(WHAT? The show has too many puns to begin with! I tried to resist!)

Dexter Wolfe head canons

This fan base seems to be dead but hey:

Dexter Wolfe used to be the youngest to ever become VILE Faculty - he was 24. This title would be taken by his daughter at the age of 20 or 22

He inherited the Faculty seat from his parent.

He met Valdez on a Bank Heist, she was a bank teller. Wolfe basically had flirted so well that Valdez wanted to talk to him again.

Wolfe did have a crush and tried to flirt with his partner in crime (Codename: River) Lee Jordan.

When Carmen was born, he debated whether to let her train to be a thief to keep the tradition of his criminal bloodline. Him and Valdez had an argument and it pretty much decided that Wolfe wants his daughter to choose who she wants to be. He’ll tell her he’s a thief eventually. Then he died.

What if Interpol only found out that Wolfe was in Argentina because someone else snitched on him? Not VILE though.
