DaphneHow in the world did a ship get all the way up here?
Maybe this can tell us. It's the ship's manifest. The writing's in Español, but I aced honor's Spanish. I can translate. "I fear I may have doomed us all. After months of filling our hold... "
(In the flashback with narrating conquistador)
CConquistador
...with treasure, we were about to set sail when word was delivered of an even greater prize: a sarcophagus of the purest crystal, filled to the brim with black pearls of immense value. A king's ransom! The men and I were overtaken with a desire to find this great treasure. And after several months of searching, find it we did. What we didn't realize was that the Entity that dwelled inside that crystal sarcophagus had been searching for us as well. In our thirst for power and wealth, we had discovered a terrible evil. It preyed upon our fears, driving us to commit Horrible acts. Finally, in an act of desperation to stop what we had become, I set the ship ashore on the mission coast, in a cove we named after what we would soon bring there: Crystal Cove.
(Flashback interrupted)
Zoinks! Ha ha! Like, that means...
These are the conquistadors that founded our town!
Daphne
The ones that disappeared!
(Flashback continues)
CConquistador
I used the arcanical Disco Planisférico, to map our location, and we buried the evil treasure deep, deep underground. Then, we broke the disk into 6 pieces and went our separate ways. I concealed my piece aboard the ship and artfully protected it by a large number of lethal mechanical devices. I brought the ship here, to the top of this mountain, to stay hidden forever.
(Flashback ends)
It's signed Fernando El Aguirre, captain of the "Santa Lucia" of Spain.
Daphne
Jeepers! You know what this means? The fifth piece of the Planispheric Disk is right here on this ship!
Then let's find it and get out of here before that crazy chick shows up again! Hoo-hoo!
Daphne
Looks like Hebediah Grim won't be judging anybody, now that we know he's really...
(Scooby and Daphne unmasks the 2 Hebediah Grims)
Yeah! We were, like, totally sneaky!
Not so totally, I'm afraid. The odd indentations in Hebediah Grim's footprints turned out to be soccer cleat marks. Gary's chat video was pre-recorded. I hacked your laptop and found the original recordings.
Two missing costumes meant there could be two Hebediah Grims.
Like, worst of all, you guys tried to frame Doogle McGuiness by putting a yearbook on his porch: Ethan's yearbook!
So judge that, you losers. (throws the yearbook hardly) Boo-yah! Who wants to judge me now? Huh? Who? You want to judge me? You? In your face! YEAH!
Velma, you're scaring me.
The real question is, why? Why did you guys do it?
Duh. We wanted to terrify girls and then rescue them so they'd fall for us, just like the knights did in the old west before the dragons went away.
Yeah. Knights terrorize and save damsels to score dates with them all the time.
Huh. I never thought about it that way.
Daphne
But why did you both dress up?
We don't trust each other. Tag-teaming was the only option.
And we would have gotten away with it if any of you mystery, stink losers had lives.
Now, let's see who's really behind all this Terrorwood smoke. (unmasks the Fiend)
Daphne
That doesn't make any sense.
You seemed like the nicest guy.
DDan
It's this place. I can't take it! I've been here since I was born. My family's been caretakers of the Burlington Mansion, and then, the Burlington Library, for generations. I was born here, been here every day of my life, all alone up here on this mountain, tending this darn library! Where it always seemed to be snowing and I could never get warm. Never! I hate the cold. I hate the snow! But the library could never be closed. I never got a vacation, not one. I found out about the Terrorwood when I accidentally burned some. So I decided to use it to scare away anyone and everyone that came here. So eventually, no one would come anymore, and I could close the place forever and go someplace warm. And I would have done it, too, been somewhere warm by now, if it wasn't for you meddling snow-bound brats. (Next scene, outside of Burlington Library, Dan Fluunk is taken into custody by two deputies) I don't mind going to prison. Not one bit! At least I'll finally be someplace warm! (laughs hysterically)
(The gang arrives with Mystery Machine)
Daphne
Cassidy! We heard about the explosion! Are you hurt?
(Cassidy shows her big shotgun)
(The gang gets down behind a big robot soldier, Cassidy shoots it)
Daphne
Cassidy, what's going on?
Start with why there's a World War II-era robot on the ground.
Like, dude, why were you attacked by a robot?
Actually, I've been attacked by 6 robots. It started last week, and it's getting worse. I would have told you sooner, but you all don't trust me.
With good reason. You lied to us.
I hear you. But I've changed. Ask me anything, and I will tell you the truth.
Daphne
OK. What's the story with you and Mr. E? Why did you help him?
Daphne
(sighs) Wrong answer.
(Another robot rises in the ocean)
Hold on, gang. Check this out. (picks up a small sea thing inside robot arm) Interesting. This is a Lassiter Gringol mollusk.
Looks like a snail. Yecch!
It is a snail, Scooby, a rare sea snail, (a robot soldier sees the gang, preparing to attack) whose picky mollusk diet restricts it to a deep Costa marine trench, located right off Crystal Cove. These robots must have an underwater origin in that trench. (robot soldier arrives in front of the gang) Aaah!
RSRobot soldier
(speaks in German, tries to attack the gang but it's hit by an arrow and hits the wall)
SSkipper
Go back to the deep where you came from, you scurvy tin fish! You rusty scalawags are worse than sea rats! (to the gang) Sorry about that, kids. Free brine and cuttlefish on the house.
Gang, we need to get to that trench.
Daphne
And I know someone who can get us there.
It's over, Miss October Pest. Call off the bots. (turns the chair and sees the corpse) Ugh!
Like, that is worse than robots.
Did that thing... just whisper?
I heard it, too. It sounded like...
Daphne
You think that was her name?
No. Her name was Frau Abigail Glück. She was part of the Benevolent Lodge of Mystery, the mystery-solving gang formed by Burlington in the 1880s. And when I got back from the Burlington Library, someone had pinned a picture of another mystery-solving group on my wall: The Darrow Family.
Daphne
Including us and the original Mystery Incorporated? That makes 4 groups.
My guess-- there's more. Almost as if this has all happened before.
(Pericles and the Kriegstaffebots appear)
Exactly right. Mystery Incorporated.
EEveryone
Professor Pericles?
Ah! Lovely. I see you have met what's left of Frau Glück. I met Frau Glück in Bavaria in the 1930s. She discovered the missionaries possessed the fifth and the sixth pieces of the Planispheric Disk. She built this lab and a host of robots to aid her search for the pieces. I finally found this lab and continued the Frau's work, building a legion of her Kriegstaffebots to retrieve the pieces for me. My holographic masquerade as Frau Glück bought my bots all the time they needed. And I would have gotten away with eliminating Cassidy if it weren't for you meddling kids. Now that I have everything I need, I can dispose of this place and all of you at the same time. (takes the piece of the Planispheric Disk) Farewell, darling kinder. Farewell. (escapes the underwater lab in an escape capsule)
TTub
I wish! Moby's stuck!
TTom
The only way we can leave is if someone stays behind and keeps the doors open with this manual override lever!
Daphne
No!
I'll be right behind you. Trust me, I'm a fast swimmer. (The gang feels a bit shocked) Go! I'll be fine. Go.
(The gang, Tom and Tub enter the submarine, Daphne stays to talk)
Daphne
What we were talking about before, about regret-- you weren't talking about me and Fred. You were talking about you and Mr. E. You loved him once, didn't you?
(last words) What E and I had, we lost a long time ago. Don't make the same mistake I did. Now, go!
(Cassidy keeps the switch that opened the door and the submarine escapes the laboratory destroyed)
Daphne
Do you see her?
TTom
Don't worry. She's here somewhere.
(The seal Scooby appears in the water, calling the gang)
Daphne
Look, gang. He's holding something.
(The seal Scooby shows the broken helmet)
Daphne
Ah! (The gang is sad) Oh no! No, Fred. (cries)
Easy, Daphne. I'm sure she got out. Right, guys?
I guess maybe... we were wrong about Cassidy.
Daphne
Where are we?
It looks like an avocado orchard.
SSShaggy and Scooby
Ooh. Guacamole.
Lithium. Toxic. See what it's doing to the Avocados?
(The gang looks at the tracks and think they see the Scarebear in the dark, George Avocados arrives)
That's Avocados, you delinquent. What are you doing on my land?
Like, dude, this is your land?
My family has farmed avocados on this land for generations. Because you horrid children unmasked my dear father as a diamond thief, my reputation has been besmirched, forcing me to work my fingers to the bone so I can keep myself in the wealthy manner to which I have become accustomed.
Daphne
You know, if you're looking to make some money, I bet you could sell that coat for... (Avocados looks a bit annoyed at her) Hmm.
(A small creature falls to the ground, and runs with spider paws to the top of the tree)
Uh, is that normal avocado behavior?
Destroido! They're ruining my crops, and there's nothing I can do about it!
Because, dim young man, Destroido won't even allow me onto their property without a Destroido passport, which only they can issue. Now, get off my land.
Daphne
Now, it's time to see who the Scarebear really is.
(Fred unmasks Scarebear)
EEveryone
Benson Fuhrman?
BBenson
That's right. And Fuhrman isn't my real name. It's Hairmore.
BBenson
Isn't it obvious, man? Hairmore would give me away as the Scarebear and, duh. All I wanted was to expose Destroido for the sick, soul-destroying evil that it is. Destroido ruins lives and pays the victims to keep quiet. Well, this is one victim who won't remain quiet any longer.
Daphne
How are you a victim? You look fine.
BBenson
Do I, pretty scarlet-headed temptress? What if I told you that I am not, in fact, wearing a bear suit, but I'm covered completely in animal hair?
BBenson
It would be covered, too, square-jawed, handsome young hero, if I didn't have to shave every few hours just to maintain my non-hirsute appearance. You see: I purchased a bottle of gentle rain flower body wash for men, a heavenly scent designed to bring the ladies running. What I didn't know was that the company, Musky Farms, is a division of Destroido, and that there's a side effect. When I contacted Destroido about the product turning me into a hairy bear-man, the company acted as if what had happened to me was nothing. They tried to pay me off. Destroido ruined my life. So I was determined to find evidence that their body wash was toxic. I got the job as head of security and created the Scarebear suit out of taxidermied bear parts. I'm particularly proud of the claws which I purchased from a school for gifted children. I discovered that gentle rain flower was originally marketed as a lawn growth fertilizer that was so toxic, it destroyed an entire town. They didn't even change the formula. I was in the process of uploading the incriminating files to my website when you kids broke into my lab. My plan was to finally expose Destroido tonight at their own charity ball. I wanted to show the entire world what they had done. And I would have gotten away with it, too, if it wasn't for you meddling, mutant animal-hating kids.
Gee. I feel kind of bad that we got in the way. Destroido deserves to be exposed.
Unfortunately, since Destroido is its own sovereign nation, I can't arrest anyone.
Daphne
Oh, Sheriff! (hugs Sheriff Stone) You're wonderful!
Like, speaking of explaining, we still don't know who set the bomb.
The Planispheric Disk are ours!
I believe it's time to put all of it together.
(The old gang goes to the lair and find that the pieces are gone, only DVD)
(Ricky plays the DVD on the DVD player)
(Video starts)
If you're watching this, you're probably wondering what's happened to your pieces of the Planispheric Disk. In a word, you've been scammed, conned, bamboozled.
Daphne
That's 3 words, Fred, but I think they get the idea. We did this to you.
And we will be more than happy to tell you how we did it.
It was all an elaborate plan masterminded by your very own Freddie.
We created Krampus by borrowing Charlie the Haunted Robot and dressing him up in clothes we bought off German gypsies who live in Crystal Cove's haunted forest.
As for Krampus moving around, he was being remote controlled by Jason Wyatt, who agreed to help for lenience from the Mayor on his mother's sentence.
Like, Jason also helped create an invisible aerosol that was used to turn hair white and make it grow long for added effect.
We needed to keep you away from the vault. You following us following Krampus was the perfect way to keep you distracted so we could carry out our master plan: Breaking into Mr. E's vault.
Daphne
Freddie planted a bug on Brad Chiles' clothing so that we could get the code to the vault.
And once we had that code...
We could give it to our operative. Someone with intimate knowledge of Mr. E's lair: Hot Dog Water.
(surprised) Hot Dog Water?
I still know how to get in touch with her.
Like, when Velma told Hot Dog Water what we had planned, HDW was in.
And while we stole the real pieces...
You were stealin' fake ones.
Daphne
The real pieces were instead safely hidden with the one person no one would ever suspect: Fred's fake father, the ex-Mayor Jones.
My not-really-my-dad dad may have betrayed us once to get the disk pieces, but when he heard what we were planning, he was more than glad to help us take you down.
And, like, Mary Anne Gleardan also agreed to help us after the current Mayor offered her lenience on her sentence.
She really wants to go back to the 7th grade.
I guess I secretly hoped you guys might not try to steal the pieces from us. But I guess I always knew you would. Which leaves me with only one thing left to say: Real mom, real dad, don't expect me home for dinner. Ever.
And we're taking Nova with us, too. You don't deserve her.
(Video ends)
(The old gang is shocked)
Daphne
Oh. Let's see what it looks like: The whole Planispheric Disk.
(The gang reassembles the pieces of the Planispheric Disk)
(The disk is shining)
We have the whole thing. That leaves only one question.
(The next scene depicts the crystal coffin with eyes glowing beneath Crystal Cove)
CCCrystal coffin's voice
Nibiru. (laughs)
Now, let's see who this ghostly monk really is. (unmasks Serra's face)
EEveryone
George Avocados? (The crowd is surprised)
That's Avoc--ah. Oh, forget it. That's right. It is me.
Yes! Finally! I knew you'd be the villain eventually.
All right, you got me. And I suppose you're wondering, after so many prior misdirects, why now.
Daphne
Actually, no. Not really. We kind of always knew you were evil.
Hmmph! Okay, fine. Then my tale should not surprise. It all began after I failed in politics. I had no choice but to go into the family business: Farming avocados. Everything was going so well until you mystery brats blew up my crops. I then tried my hand at fortune telling. But when that endeavor failed... I fell back on the Avocados legacy of stealing other people's things. I located the Avocados diamond, stolen by my father. Turns out, it actually was disguised as a door knob, not on a door in Crystal Cove, but on a door at the Burlington Library. When I found out it was among the artifacts sent here for the production. I took a job as a janitor. I needed everyone to stay clear of the basement to give me time to look. I hid the body of Friar Serra in a closet and assumed his identity. Knowing this town's gullibility, I knew a ghost story would give me room to hunt. And I would have succeeded, TOO, if it weren't for Vincent van Ghoul.
So the brown residue that was left behind...
That's right. Guacamole! Now, I want my diamond! (tries to grab the diamond staff but Daphne grabbed it)
Daphne
Let me see something. This crystal is the diamond!
But, like, hold on. If you were the friar, how did you appear at the rehearsals?
I didn't. I assumed that was you meddling kids trying to trick me into revealing myself.
Don't get too close. They still might have some alien brain-stealing items ready to deploy.
That might be true if they were really aliens, but they are, in fact, (unmasks the Grey, Nordic Alien and Reptoid) Traveler O'Flaherty, Sheela O'Flaherty and Connor O'Flaherty.
Ah, usually, we all recognize the villain and shout out his name in unison.
Daphne
Yeah, Velm. Mind cluing us in?
I know all the criminals in Crystal Cove, and these jerks aren't ringing a bell.
Like, you had a wanted poster for them on your wall.
Oh, please. Nobody ever pays attention to those. What is this, the old west?
TOTraveler O'Flaherty
Were that it were, boyo. Then perhaps we could've earned an honest living. When I was a wee lad, we couldn't even afford peat for our fire. So I had to lift it. It turned out I was a right good thief, but then I discovered there were things I could steal other than coal, and wouldn't you know it, my kids had an aptitude for the family business as well. We started getting a reputation for our business, and there were our faces splashed all over the universe. Aye. 'Twas then we got the idea for the costumes because who'd ever say they saw an outer space creature stealing a flat-screen television set? I found out about the Blakes purchasing the Pangaea. Seemed like it was right up our alley, and we'd have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for you frittering snappers. (after a short silence) Meddling kids!
But I know what I saw: the aliens, the cornfield, my nose chip!
Actually, Sheriff, during your hypnotic regression, Shaggy and Scooby smelled something on your breath.
SSShaggy and Scooby
Bad clams.
The clams induced a hallucination that made everything seem real.
Daphne
What about the lights on the road?
A weather balloon that got loose from the army.
And the Mystery Machine fritzing out?
Too many people turning on their air conditioners at the same time created an electromagnetic pulse that shut the Mystery Machine's engine down.
Daphne
The crop circle?
A farmer writing "I love you", to his wife for their anniversary.
Daphne
Aw, we must've been standing in the "O" of "love".
Daphne
It was the "O" of "love", Fred.
So I wasn't repeatedly abducted and experimented on by aliens?
Doesn't seem so, Sheriff.
Then I'm no longer a victim. And you, O'Flaherty family, are under arrest for THIEVERY AND IMPERSONATION OF INVADERS FROM OUTER SPACE, AND you're going away for a long, long time.
