“Winston’s gone!” howled Mrs. Braeburn. “We’ve looked everywhere! He’s nowhere to be found in our suite. Our precious dog has been stolen!”

Mr. Braeburn ran up and down the hallway with the red velvet cushion in one hand and a sausage in the other. He hoped to lure the dog back.

After a while, he stopped, turned to the hotel manager, and started to threaten him: “If Winston isn’t back here within the hour, you’ll be sorry!”

The hotel manager mopped sweat from his forehead, bowed down, and began to grovel. He promised that they would search the hotel from top to bottom. Rita, Pierre, the hotel manager, Bert, Jerry, and Maya all ran off in different directions. They searched every broom closet and guest room from the basement to the attic. But there was no sign of Winston.

An hour later, the hotel staff gathered outside the Braeburns’ suite again.

The hotel manager, Ronnie Hazelwood, adjusted his bandage. He took a deep breath before knocking.

Mr. Braeburn flung open the door.

“Well . . . we have, er . . . um . . . haven’t . . . ,” mumbled the manager.

“You haven’t found our dog!” roared Mr. Braeburn. “Disgraceful! We demand compensation for Winston. Our poor little dog has, no doubt, disappeared for good. We will leave the hotel first thing tomorrow morning, and you should be thankful we aren’t going to the police! The hotel can pay for the room.”

Mrs. Braeburn tottered over. She leaned dramatically against the doorway and held her hand to her forehead.

“Naturally,” groaned the manager.

Mr. Braeburn slammed the door with a bang.
