2	* [[spoiler: ''Series/GortimerGibbonsLifeOnNormalStreet'''s "The Mystery of the Marlow Mansion": [[WickedCultured Raymond Bloodstone]] is a [[MasterActor renowned and extremely skilled actor]] and thief existing within the novels of famous mystery author Polly Marlow. When Gortimer Gibbons plays the role of the character, and a thunderstorm [[LostInCharacter traps in Gortimer his role]], Raymond would study his host's body and life in order to masterfully impersonate him, convince Gortimer's friends that he was unaffected by the storm, and temporarily shut down the electricity to the place to steal a golden owl from under everyone's noses, without drawing suspicion. Taking advantage of Gortimer's beloved status, Raymond would subtly use some of the accusations and the suspects' mannerisms and lines to try and incriminate them, and nearly gets away with his theft even after the others are proven innocent. When exposed, he expresses how his theft was due to wanting to be recognized for his acting skills, and gracefully accepts Ranger and Mel's praise for his masterful impersonation, taking a bow.]]
