Okay, you go in the store then, THERE YOU GO!
Nope. You can see him in the background during the scooter chase.
The scooter is just a part of the chase of the shady guy (thief) through the streets of Counterfeit Island. You go from the Jazz cafe downtown to the docks. There is no way to catch him, but you must avoid the open sewer manholes in the road. There is no way to get the scooter at any other time.
You don't. During the scooter chase, you can see him still floating over the city.
The key card is dropped at the end of the scooter chase. It is used much later in the game.
You receive a package (with a painting inside) when you return to the Museum after the scooter chase, where you recover the Key Card.
once you figure it out he runs away and you have to chase him on a scooter then he drives away on a motor boat
You don't need to. (He is still floating in the scooter chase scene, and the news is still showing his story on Reality TV Island.)
Strangely enough, no. You can still see him floating during the later "scooter chase" scene.
You don't. When the thief escapes after the scooter chase, pick up the Keycard and go back to the museum, where you have a package waiting.
He is last seen floating over the buildings during the scooter chase. His fate is never revealed, at least not on this island.
Nobody knows. He is visible during the scooter chase, and the news story is still popular on Reality TV Island.
Once you have gotten the keycard after the scooter chase you go to the art museum on early poptropica island and this lady will give you a key that goes to the cottage on the countryside.
