Tracey-Lee Smyth

Madeline, Pepito and the girls take the famed Orient Express to Istanbul to compete in the International Spelling Bee. When a snake charmer on the train announces that his prize cobra is missing, Madeline and Pepito volunteer to search for the missing serpent (although the other girls refuse). After questioning many suspicious passengers, Madeline discovers that the snake has been stolen by the train's chef, who didn't quite understand one of the passenger's pronunciation when he ordered a delicious "snack".
