Concerned, Munk decides to follow his son, as does Freddie's mother, each in secret pursuit. Wearing laughable disguises, they set off to solve the big mystery.
Soon the rest of the family, plus an entire town follows, like a parade of hapless, chipmunk sleuths. Into the dangerous forest, would-be detectives scamper after Freddie.
