Q & Q

- Season 2

(1976)

While most of Runkum is attending a meeting concerning the impending Runkum- Rünicheim centennial celebrations, Henriette van Kampen alerts the police that the house next door is being robbed. Later that night a police officer is shot and Wilbur overhears a criminal conversation over a crossed telephone-line.

On the first day of his new paper route, Wilbur encounters a brawny Belgian who is very interested in the previous night's commotion in Runkum. Ingmar Quant is too ill to begin pre-production on Ada Blom's play about Robur van Runkum.

Juultje almost becomes involved in a shootout in the woods, leading Q & Q to go search for a bullet in the trees. Martha is disappointed when I.Q. chooses Aristides mother to play the lead in the play he's directing instead of her.

Opa offers his help and advise to librarian and amateur writer Ada Blom. Aristides asks Akie Swaan, who's father is investigating the art theft, for information.

Wilbur recalls hearing a clock chime at the wrong hour during the fateful telephone call. The name that was mentioned, Gerard, belongs to the mysterious Belgian who is being shadowed by a Chinaman in a large Fedora.

Akkie proposes that she and the two Q's take a look in the burgled villa, using her father's keys to get in. I.Q. asks Martha to be his production assistant.

The four Chinamen leave a message for Kokkerneel at the library. Q & Q are caught snooping on the Fok brothers. Ada enjoys spying on her landlady for Opa, aka uncle Reinier.

I.Q. orders his son Wilbur to stop investigating. Aristides' mother Lenonie witnesses Kokkerneel fighting off the four Chinamen on the street.

Eduard de Gaal receives a telegram calling him away to Africa. Aristides suspects the Fok brothers are behind this. When the two Q's search the library with Akkie and Opa, Akkie makes a startling discovery behind some dusty books.

Opa Reinier decides to keep watch in the library on his own and witnesses a confrontation between Kokkerneel and the family Fok.

Opa Reinier is missing but thanks to Akkie, at least one member of the police force is willing to listen. The brothers Fok are headed for farmer Zwartje's barn and both the police and the young investigators are in pursuit.
