It had been raining cats and dogs by the time Ray had been placed under arrest in the patrol van from Scotland Yard. Although Ray and the dogs had been done protesting against the police, Spixington had a word or two to say to the inspectors as he, too, boarded their arrest vehicle.
Spixington: I'm innocent, I tell you! Innocent!
Then, Spixington started crying up a monsoon of tears from within the Scotland Yard arrest vehicle as the Blue Spix macaw just sat in there with everyone he knew and loved. Assistant Inspector Seville then spoke up about the problem with having tried and failed miserably to separate Ray from his animal companions to her partner from Scotland Yard, Inspector Thorne.
Assistant Inspector Mariah Seville: Couldn't tear them apart, sir.
As he held up a newspaper over his head for cover from the outside rain they were within, Inspector Thorne just spoke sternly yet jokingly to his partner about their newest arrest.
Inspector Thomas Thorne: Oh, never mind. Just goes to show an animal will love anyone.
Upon having heard what the inspector thought of animals, however, both Carlisle and Harriette started to offer an argument against such a claim, even if what they had to say about it fell upon ears that were deaf to their voices.
Carlisle: Oh, I very much beg to differ from that claim, Inspector Thorne.
Harriette also offered her own opinion about who the inspector should have suspected as a dognapper.
Harriette: Indeed, sir. Contrary to what you seem to think of animals, there actually are some people out there that we would never wanna even tolerate, never mind love. Everyone has something they like and something or someone they don't.
Carlisle spoke up further in his own tongue about what Harriette wished she could have told the inspector.
Carlisle: Right, Harriette. We may come with sharp teeth and claws, but we're people, too, ya know.
Harriette then brought up an even more fascinating fact about herself, Carlisle and all of their fellow animals that the team of inspectors should have considered before their arrest of Ray.
Harriette: And just because we can't talk to them, doesn't mean humans don't have to listen to us.
That was around when Cruella made the scene back to Inspector Thorne, though not for the reason he thought that she had.
Cruella 'Ella' DeVil/Estella von Hellman: Inspector Thorne!
As Miss DeVil distracted him, the so-called 'masterful' inspector from Scotland Yard failed miserably to notice a dark-skinned, yet meek figure walking to the side of his arrest patrol vehicle, re-stealing the dalmatian puppies from out of the back seat. Inspector Thorne was never going to notice that the dalmatians he reclaimed from whom he suspected a dognapper were missing once again until he made it back to the station.
Cruella 'Ella' DeVil/Estella von Hellman (continued): Oh, Inspector, thank you.
Of course, Inspector Thorne welcomed the idea of sharing an umbrella with Cruella, though only for the sake of actually being under an umbrella, at all.
Cruella 'Ella' DeVil/Estella von Hellman (continued): You and your men do such a wonderful job of protecting the weak and the innocent.
As Cruella continued to distract Inspector Thorne with the invitation of sharing her umbrella with her, the dark-skinned, yet meek figure held Miss DeVil's car door open while holding the box of dalmatian puppies from his hands. He continued to hold onto it as he still needed support for his injured right hand. Of course, Inspector Thorne, being nowhere even close to as smart as he had always thought himself to be, had no idea that Miss DeVil's compliments were just a ruse to keep him away from his own arrest vehicle just long enough for her Jamaican valet, Jermaine, to have re-stolen the dalmatian puppies she had Ray take the fall for her having stolen, herself.
Inspector Thomas Thorne: Oh, thank you very much.
That was all before the inspector continued speaking with Cruella to lightly humor the devil woman.
Inspector Thomas Thorne (continued): And I must say, Miss DeVil, that you're the most remarkable case of rehabilitation I've seen in all my years on the force from within Scotland Yard, herself.
Of course, Cruella simply had to sell her ruse to the secretly gullible inspector even further than she had been selling it to the man.
Cruella 'Ella' DeVil/Estella von Hellman: Thank you so much. Ta-ta.
As Inspector Thorne readied himself for getting out from under Cruella's umbrella and back into the pouring rain once again, he bid her his farewell, too.
Inspector Thomas Thorne: Cheerio, Miss DeVil.
Cruella just chuckled as Inspector Thorne and Assistant Inspector Seville headed off in their arrest vehicle with their warranted suspect, Raymond Millerson, in tow from within the criminal compartment. Then, Cruella called her Jamaican valet, Jermaine, back over to her side to check with him that the job was done. As soon as the meek-ish Jamaican nodded his head, Cruella finally saw fit to let out her true laugh, her most evil cackle, as the team of inspectors drove off in their patrol car into the pouring rain back to Scotland Yard.
