(After winning a Rainbow Badge from Erika, Mew and her friends find themselves in a new city.)
(The city is very big, and the buildings are very tall.)
(Mew looks around as she says.)
Mew: "Gee, it feels like all these buildings are closing in on us!"
Misty: "Yeah, and they're all so tall, you can't even see the sky!"
(Misty says.)
Mew: "Where are we, Brock?"
(Mew asks, turning to Brock.)
(Seeing the map, Brock answers.)
Brock: "A, HopHopHop Town?"
Mew and Misty: "HopHopHop?"
(The girls say, confused.)
Pikachu and Eevee: "Chu"/Vee?" (Town?)
(Pikachu and Eevee say, confused.)
The woman: "Laura!"
(A voice calls out.)
(Mew turns to see a woman running towards them.)
The woman: "Laura!"
(The woman happily says and gives Mew a hug.)
(The woman happily says.)
Laura's mother: Where have you been, Laura? Mother's been so worried!
(Struggling to get some air, Mew says.)
Mew: "Excuse me, but my name is Mew!"
Misty: "And my name is Misty, ma'am,"
(Misty says, with a smile.)
(But Brock grabs her by her shoulders.)
Brock: "She wasn't talking to you, Misty."
Misty: "I guess not,"
(Misty replies, and Brock pulls her aside.)
(The woman looks at Mew and quickly lets her go and apologizes.)
Laura's mother: "Oh! I'm so sorry! But you look just like my Laura."
(Mew and the others become confused.)
(Misty asks.)
Misty: "What happened to him?"
(Soon, the group sits down on stone seats to hear the mother's story.)
Laura's mother: "I'm so upset because my daughter, Laura, just disappeared. She's been gone for three days! I can't find her anywhere."
(The mother says.)
Brock: "And you haven't heard from her?"
(Brock asks.)
Laura's mother: "Not a word,"
(The mother says.)
Mew: "Could she have gone off to become a Pokemon trainer?"
(Mew asks.)
Laura's mother: "She did like Pokemon, of course, but she never mentioned anything about becoming a trainer,"
(The mother says.)
Misty: "Don't you think she'll probably just come home soon?"
(Misty asks.)
(The mother shakes her head and says.)
Laura's mother: "My daughter isn't the only child who's disappeared recently."
(The group becomes shocked.)
Brock: "She's not?"
(Brock asks.)
(The mother turns her head to see multiple posters on the wall.)
Laura's mother: "See those posters?"
Mew: "Posters?"
(Mew asks, looking at them.)
Laura's mother: "Those are pictures of all the children that have disappeared."
(The mother says.)
Misty: "That many?!"
(Misty asks, shocked.)
Mew: "This must be a pretty dangerous town."
(Mew says, concerned.)
Misty: "My picture's gonna be on posters, when I'm a big, famous star,"
(Misty says with a smile.)
(But notices her friends aren't taking her seriously.)
Misty: "Excuse me!"
Mew: "Uh, maybe we should think about the missing children and not about you being a lead actress,"
(Mew says.)
(Suddenly, they hear a familiar voice.)
???: "They certainly were nice children. All of them."
(The group looks to see Officer Jenny on her motorbike.)
(She looks at the poster and says.)
Officer Jenny: "Disappearing one by one like that. I just can't understand it."
(She walks off the bike with another poster and looks around.)
Officer Jenny: "Let's see, where should I hang this one."
(Mew rushes over with Misty and Brock to see officer Jenny.)
(Mew asks.)
Mew: "Excuse me! Are you the cousin or second cousin of the Jenny of Maiden's Peak?"
Officer Jenny: "Actually, I'm her cousin's cousin,"
(Jenny answers.)
Mew: "It figures,"
(Mew replies.)
(Dazed over Jenny, Brock.)
Brock: "This one's the most beautiful one yet."
Misty: "They're all exactly alike,"
(Misty mutters.)
(Brock walks to Jenny and takes her hands.)
Brock: "It must be terrible searching for all those lost children. I would be very happy to help you in your search."
Officer Jenny: "What?!"
(Jenny says, confused.)
Brock: "We can both work together hand in hand,"
(Brock says, asking her out.)
(Jenny takes her hand away and sternly says.)
Officer Jenny: "Just don't get in the way."
(Mew looks to notice the worried expression the mother has on her face.)
Mew: "Gee. She reminds me of, Adriana, and my papa,"
(Mew says.)
(Mew remembers seeing them last time at Porta Vista.)
Mew: "They must be worried,"
(Mew says.)
(Pikachu hops on Mew's hat and Eevee on Mew's shoulder.)
Pikachu: "Pikachu," (Very.)
(Pikachu says.)
Mew: "You think so, too, huh?"
(Mew replies.)
Eevee: "Eevee." (Sure do.)
(Eevee says.)
Mew: "In any case. We need to help find the missing children,"
(Mew says.)
Pikachu and Eevee: "Pika!/Eev! (And how!)
(Both Pokemon cheers.)
(Soon enough, Mew and her friends decide to tag along with Officer Jenny to help her find the missing children.)
Officer Jenny: All of the missing children disappeared exactly three days ago,"
(Jenny says.)
Mew: "Three days ago?"
(Mew asks.)
Brock: "Besides that, do the missing children have anything else in common?"
(Brock asks.)
Officer Jenny: "They don't have a thing in common,"
(Jenny answers, and the kids feel like they're at a dead end.)
(But Jenny then says.)
Officer Jenny: "But I think other kids may know something about it."
(Soon the group arrives at the Pokemon Center.)
Brock: "I see. So we'll ask the kids in the Pokemon Center if they know anything,"
(Brock says.)
Mew: "Great idea. They might give us an idea on what happened to them,"
(Mew says.)
(The group enters the Pokemon Center and asks around.)
(Jenny holds a photo to two kids and asks.)
Officer Jenny: "Have you seen this little boy before?"
first boy: "I haven't,"
(The first boy answers.)
(Then the second boy says.)
second boy: "Yeah. I play with him all the time."
Officer Jenny: "When was the last time you saw him?"
(Jenny asks.)
second boy: "I don't know,"
(The second boy answers.)
(Then Brock comes up to them with a serious tone.)
Brock: "You two had better answer all these questions truthfully."
young boy: "Okay,"
(The young boy nervously replies.)
Brock: "Now tell this beautiful young lady everything you know,"
(Brock sternly says.)
(The boys look at Brock with confused looks.)
Brock: "You do think she's beautiful, don't ya? Come on. What do you say?"
(Brock says with a smile.)
(Annoyed, Jenny says.)
Officer Jenny: "NOW you're getting in the way!"
(Meanwhile, Mew, Misty, Pikachu, and Eevee are at the front desk to ask Nurse Joy.)
(Mew asks.)
Mew: "I bet you're related to the Joy in Maiden's Peak, aren't you?"
Nurse Joy: "Well, you'd win that bet,"
(Joy answers.)
(Misty holds out a missing child photo.)
Misty: "We're here about the missing children."
(Seeing the picture, Joy says.)
Nurse Joy: "Oh, those kids who disappeared all of a sudden. I saw it on the news."
Mew: "Please, is there anything you can tell us about these children?"
(Mew asks.)
Nurse Joy: "I'd like to help you, but right now, I'm afraid I've got my hands full with our own mystery,"
(Nurse Joy says.)
Misty: "What do you mean? What's the matter?"
(Misty asks.)
Nurse Joy: "All of the Pokemon here at the center are behaving very strangely,"
(Nurse Joy says.)
Mew: "What do you mean by strange?"
(Mew asks.)
Nurse Joy: "I'll show you,"
(Joy says.)
