Sour Power!

Nancy!” George said. “I think I see something silver on the side!”

“I told you the boys took the sunglasses!” Bess said. “I told you so!”

Bad Newz slid across the stage on their knees as they finished their song.

“Way to go, guys!” Miss Butcher said. “You’re done practicing for the day.”

“Yo, dudes!” Jason declared. “To the monkey bars!”

The boys pounded knuckles. Then they raced toward the playground.

“Follow them!” Nancy said, breaking into a run. But then Miss Butcher called, “Spy Girlz! You’re up next!”

Nancy skidded to a stop.

“We can’t—I mean—not now!” Nancy said. “We have to go to the playground!”

Miss Butcher put her hands on her hips. “The playground?” she asked. “How can you play when you have to practice?”

“It’s not play,” Nancy said. “It’s work.”

Miss Butcher looked confused. But then she said, “Okay. But don’t be long.”

In a flash the girls were at the playground. Jason, David, and Mike were heading toward the monkey bars.

“Jason Hutchings!” Nancy shouted. “You give me those sunglasses right now!”

Nancy expected Jason to keep on running. But he stopped, took off the sunglasses, and tossed them to Nancy.

“Knock yourself out,” Jason said. “There are tons of these around!”

Nancy caught the sunglasses. “What do you mean?” she asked.

“Nancy!” Bess cried. “Look at the playground!”

Nancy’s mouth dropped open. All of the kids on the swings were wearing black sunglasses! The kids on the seesaws were also wearing black sunglasses! So were the kids on the monkey bars!

“Everybody in the park is wearing black sunglasses!” Nancy cried.

“They can’t all be Eric’s!” George said.

Nancy stared at the sunglasses in her hands. They were black just like the missing pair. But instead of a silver S, they had a silver T!

“T . . . for Triple T,” Nancy said slowly. “Now I get it!”

“Get what?” George asked.

“Mrs. Tuttle’s plan!” Nancy said. “When she saw me wearing sunglasses, she wanted to make another Triple T souvenir!”

“So she made Triple T sunglasses,” Bess said. “And gave them to everyone!”

“That explains her plan,” George said. “But what about that ring-shaped stain we found on the stage yesterday?”

“The triplets were drinking from their own water bottles,” Bess reminded her friends.
