Sam Shovel: Private Detective

Sam Shovel: Private Detective is a segment in KidzSTUF! which features the titular character, and one of many Bible characters in present text, such as David or even Jesus.

Sam always tries to "get to the bottom" of a mystery, even if the mystery is already solved, but he's just clueless.

Monologue
Usually, Sam will start it off in dim lighting, holding onto a chair, and talking about a Bible "mystery," such as "Where is this kid, Jesus?" or "Who is the next king?"

He will usually have some strange metaphor jokes, such as "Like when I fell down an elevator shaft, I'll get to the bottom of it!" or "I'm beat. Almost as beat as when I worked undercover as a childrens' pinata!"

Interview
Sam then opens the door to see one Bible character with a problem/mystery. Sam will interrogate them, and most of the time, he unintensionally gives them the answer they were looking for; but he himself still does not understand. A running gag is that Sam always mixes up the names of his clients.

Mid-Monologue
Sam then reviews the problem, what the client said, and some Bible knowledge; until he finally thinks he's got the answer.

Ending
Sam goes back to interviewing the client, who is already one step ahead of him. Then, when the client states how he knew the answer, Sam will say that he knew it all along. Sam then goes back into the dim spotlight, and states the Bible mystery is solved, then explains how it was solved (eg. "Jesus was back at the temple, teaching and learning," or "David, the client, IS the future king")
