The focus of the first six chapters is Fatty spending all his pocket money on disguises: a couple of wigs, several pairs of stick-on eyebrows, false teeth, some makeup, and a cap. Naturally Fatty tries out a disguise on the other Find-Outers, and completely fools them with his "frightful French boy" act.
