The police is a subcategory of Theets in Princess Peach: Showtime!, where they appear as NPCs in three stages. They are notable for being one of few subcategories to appear across multiple stage types, namely the types of Dashing Thief Peach (The Perfect Infiltration) and Detective Peach (The Case of the Missing Mural and The Case of the Rainy-Day Plot).
They wear dark blue uniforms with a type of custodian helmet.
The Perfect Infiltration[edit]
One police officer has closed off a street near the start of the stage, while a second police officer was taken by surprise by the Hikō Patrols from the Sour Thieves robbing the bank, and his efforts to make up for his blunder ends up held back by the Keibiin Robos blocking off the Sour Thieves' base of operations.
The Case of the Missing Mural[edit]
Two police officers are enforcing a lockdown on the local museum where no one except high-ranking law enforcers are allowed to go in, and no one at all are allowed to go out.
By the time Detective Peach and Junior Detective have left the detective office and are heading to the museum, an additional three officers have lined up to block the road between the museum and the left road that Peach initially arrived from.
Upon Peach and Junior Detective being allowed inside, there are seven officers guarding the rooms inside the museum, though the officers focus on preventing anything from getting past them instead of making active efforts to solve the case on their own.
One of the two Criminals of the Sour Gang used a Mask of Disguise to make himself appear as one of the police officers, after taking his clothes and stuffing him inside one of the King's Sarcophaguses.
The Case of the Rainy-Day Plot[edit]
After Peach and Junior Detective have concluded that the Sour Gang had planned a bomb attack on the Clock Tower later that night, Junior Detective warns the city police squad about the plans, who back him and Peach on their way up the tower.
Having helped to apprehend and arrest various Criminals, the police then makes a notable blunder where they take a Criminal's suspicious denial entirely literally, not realizing the Criminal was lying to them when he said it was not in the top floor's bell, leaving it up to Peach, Junior Detective and Stella to make it up the last stairs before reaching the clock tower's bell.
