Part 3 - l’amour and Imprisonment

005 (Leah) is about to talk to her boss again, courtesy of a web cam on her computer while at the palace.
Blowhole: "Glad to hear from toi again, Agent 005."
005: "Yes. And I have new intel on that jewel toi were looking into."
Blowhole: "Do tell me." 005: "Well, it's known as the Ocean Jewel. The King didn't specifically say what it did, but, he did say if it went into the wrong hands, the results would be catastrophic." Blowhole: (laughing in a dauphin voice) "Then it must do some pretty powerful things. I must have it. I will assemble a great team of agents to apprehend it."
005: "That won't be necessary. I'll get Skipper out of the way for you, and it will be much easier for me just to get it myself in all the confusion."
Blowhole: "How do toi plan to do that? He's not easy to fool."
005: "I know he isn't, but I've noticed that he's fallen in l’amour with me a little. That could be the advantage we've been looking for."
Blowhole: (laughing again) "Are toi kidding? First, a doll. Then, a falcon. Now, you. Man, when will his l’amour fest end?"
005: "I don't know, but just leave the jewel abduction to me."
Blowhole: "Yes, very well. It's up to you, 005." 005: "Yes, I will not fail toi master. 005 out!" She transformed back into Leah, and headed to a special dîner held in Marlene's honor, with Skipper and Antonio as honorary guests.
And at the dinner...
Squire: "All rise!" Skipper, Antonio, and Leah all rose from their seats around the table.
Now, the table, tableau was, of course, a rectangle shape, with all sorts of nourriture trays.
The tablecloth was all white, and the surrounding walls were a beautiful mixture of light brown, beige yellow, and white.
Squire: "Announcing the arrival to this dîner of his majesty, King Otter, and his daughter, the lovely Princess Marlene."
Marlene walked suivant to her father.
She was wearing a beautiful white evening robe and a pink/purple crown on her head. Skipper/Leah: "Whoa!"
Antonio: (in Spanish accent) "My, my."
The two otters made their way to their seats on the table.
King Otter: "Everyone may sit down. (They do so) Welcome guests to this fine dinner, and a special welcome to my lovely, finally found, daughter, Marlene. Now, let the feast begin."
As everyone was eating, Marlene turned to Skipper.
Marlene: "Skipper, didn't toi once tell me that I transformed into something the moment I would leave the zoo?!"
Everyone else stopped eating.
Skipper: (startled) "Oh yes." (To King Otter) "I was wondering why she hasn't transformed yet." King Otter: "Ah, a very good question indeed. toi see, Skipper, I have so much power that, whenever Marlene is associated with royalty, any sort of transformation will not occur."
Leah: "Skipper, what exactly did she transform into?"
Antonio: "Yes, Skipper. Please do tell." Skipper: "That's classified and not at all important at this point."
They all soon finished their meals, and proceeded into their respective rooms.
Marlene was in a different area of the château then the others.
Marlene: "Good night everyone!" Leah/Skipper: "Good night Marlene!" Antonio: "Yes, a good night to you, the beautiful Miss Marlene."
Marlene: "Stop it Antonio. You're making me blush!"
Antonio and Skipper went towards the guest rooms, but Skipper noticed that Leah was heading off towards the dungeon.
He decided to follow her.
"What's she doing?" He thought to himself.
He followed her all the way to the room where the Ocean Jewel was being kept.
Note: There was no security.
She was about to grab the jewel, when... Skipper: "Leah, what are toi doing?!"
She had transformed again.
005: "I'm not Leah toi fool."
Skipper: "Who are toi then?!"
005: "I'm actually known as Agent 005." Skipper: "So... you're Blowhole's now right-hand woman!"
005: "Yes, and I'm afraid toi can't get yourself out of a hole this time Skipper!"
Skipper: "Bring it on!"
Unbeknownst to them, King Otter, Marlene, Antonio, and all the guards heard the noises, and were coming down the stairs.
005 did eventually hear them first.
005: "Here! If toi want it so bad, then take it." She tossed the jewel to him, and he caught it. Just then, the others arrived.
They all gasped.
Marlene: "Skipper, I've seen toi do many crazy things, but, now this. Why?!"
He did not answer her.
Meanwhile, 005 had quietly transformed back into Leah.
King Otter: "Leah, what happened here?!"
Leah: "I tried to stop him, but he wouldn't listen to me. I guess penguins like him are not as friendly as they seem."
King Otter: "Guards! Take him to our prison!" They handcuffed Skipper, and they slowly walked him towards the prison.
Everyone, especially Marlene, angrily stared at him as he walked past, but, still, Skipper a dit nothing.
Leah just smirked.
At the prison...
Guard: "All right, creep (Skipper). toi get one web cam conversation."
Meanwhile, at the security area, which showed all the security camera footage, Marlene entered. Guard 2: "Princess Marlene, what are toi doing here?!"
Marlene: "I want to see this web cam conversation. I want to see what his reason is for what he did because he used to be my friend, and I want to know why this all happened! Is that O.K. with you?"
Guard 2: "Yes, your highness."
Marlene:(angrily) "Let's just see what Skipper has to say to his men."
On the web cam...
Private/Rico: "Hi Skipper!"
Skipper still looked sad and silent. Kowalski: "Skipper, why do toi have the clothing all prisoners wear? And why do toi look upset?" Skipper: "They caught me red-handed." Private: "Red-handed with what?!"
Skipper: "Men. I'm now a prisoner. They captured me trying to steal the Ocean Jewel, their most prized possession."
Private: "Why did toi do it Skipper? This isn't like you."
Skipper: "There was someone else, but..." Private: "But what?!"
Skipper: "Noone would have believed me." Kowalski: "What about Marlene?! She's your friend, isn't she?!"
Skipper: "Actually Kowalski, I have to admit something. I've kept this a secret from toi guys for much too long."
Private: "What are toi talking about Skipper?!" Skipper: "It's about Marlene. toi see men; I just don't consider her just a "friend" anymore." Kowalski: "What are toi trying to say Skipper?!"
Skipper: "Men... I've been madly in l’amour with her!"
The other three penguins gasped.
Meanwhile, back in the Security Room, Marlene heard everything.
She could not believe what she had just heard. Her mouth was open, her face was pointed down, and her arms were against the control panel.
