ShaggyAnd sausages and orange juice.
PPaula
Don't forget to chew.
Shaggy
Like, thanks, Mom and Dad.
Yeah. Thanks, Mom and Dad.
CColton
Your mother and I are worried about this mystery phase you're going through. We're not saying find new friends. We're…
PPaula
Yes, we are. Find new friends.
Shaggy
You guys have got nothing to worry about, man. Me and Scoob always play it safe. If there's danger…
We run fast, really fast.
Shaggy
And as for our friends, if you guys just gave them a chance, you'd see…
All right, you see what happens when you kids stick your noses where they don't belong? People get cocooned!
Shaggy
Like, man, we found them like that.
(trying to show what she means with her hands) Sheriff, there was a monster…
Quiet. From this point forward this is a crime scene and future tourist attraction - stay out of it. (walks away)
I gotta stay out of it right here. (holds up fist)
Let me talk to him. (walks away)
(dreamily) Don't worry. Fred will make him understand.
(runs back carrying body) Shaggy, start the car!
Shaggy
Like, I thought you were going to talk to him.
He wasn't in a listening mood.
(opens back of the van) So you stole a body? Rockin'. (Fred throws the body in the trunk)
Don't worry. I know just who can help us. (school bell rings)
ERProfessor Emmanuel Raffalo
All right. Who can tell me what photosynthesis is? (they all raised their hands up) And please don't say "plant farts". (they all lowered their hands) (sighs) (door opens and Professor Raffalo sees Fred and Shaggy carrying the body in the classroom)
Professor Raffalo, we need your help. (classmates scream and run out)
Couldn't you kids have waited for break?
Shaggy
Is he…? (gulps)
No, he's alive. But he appears to be in some sort of dehydrated stasis. I don't quite know what that means, but I'm guessing it's temporary.
(sees squirrel food) Mmm, Scooby snacks. (Opens the squirrel cage reaching its food, and the squirrel goes rabid and attacks Scooby)
Do you know what could have done this?
The cocoon material looks organic, but I'll need to do further tests. The sheriff okayed this?
Uh, of course he did. What, do you think we stole a body? That's rich. (laughs as he pushes the gang out the school)
Mm, yeah, Crystal Cove. That was the Rotten Brains with their single, Zombie Housewife Blues. I'm Angel Dynamite. And you're listening to K-Ghoul 101.4 on your AM dial. (Shaggy knocks the door) I was wondering when y'all was gonna show up. He's in the back.
(Angel opens door. Fred is lying down with his head on the record player) Fred? It's us. We're here for you. (sits down next to him. Scooby Doo licks his hair)
It's no use, gang. I was the one who stole the body and Professor Raffalo paid the price. I should have listened to my dad and stayed out of any new mysteries.
We all helped steal the body, Fred.
Shaggy
Well, I actually never took... (Velma elbows him in the ribs) Ow! Okay, fine. Yes, we all took part, Freddie.
Fred Jones, you've never backed away from a mystery in your life.
Man up, Fred. We still have our first clue, the cocoon. I brought a sample... (Scooby is eating the slime from the cocoon) Scooby, what are you doing?
What? It's Ruitmeir's! Yummy! (Starts eating again)
Check it out. If that dog mutates, I'm putting it down. Dig?
Shaggy
Like, hold on, I think I get it. (walks over and tastes the slime)
DFDaphne, Fred, Velma, Angel
Ew!
Shaggy
No, you guys, it's Fruitmeir's. The cocoon is made of the same stuff as Fruitmeir's Dessert.
DFDaphne, Fred, Velma, Angel
What? (They all get up and taste it)
They're right. But if the cocoon is made of Fruitmeir's Dessert...
Shaggy
That means if we capture the monster, we can have our own shop. And we can have an endless supply of Fruitmeir's Dessert. Oh, boy.
No. It means that that Slime Mutant may not be a monster at all. What do we know about Franklin Fruitmeir?
Franklin Fruitmeir. Showed up in town out of nowhere two months ago. Before that, nothing. He's hiring right now for female servers.
Shaggy
If the girls can get jobs at Fruitmeir's, they can snoop around and find out more.
Shaggy
(he and Scooby are dressed as girls). Um, like, uh, this isn't exactly what I had in mind. Why are Scooby Doo and I dressed like girls when Velma and Daphne are girls?
Yeah. My skirts too tight.
Because Velma and I refused. (Shaggy and Scooby glare at them)
Shaggy
Mon-mon-monster! Like, right behind us!
Monster? There's no monster.
SSScooby, Shaggy, Velma and Fred
Daphne? Daphne? Daphne? Daphne? Daphne?
Here. I'm down here. I'm okay, but you better get down here. I think I found something.
Not right now, Daphne. I have to figure out why my trap didn't work.
Why is the town's latest tourist attraction cocooned to the wall?
Dad, Sheriff, hold on. You don't understand. That is not a monster.
Oh, hopping steamed clams, Fred. Then who is it?
SSScooby, Shaggy, Velma and Daphne
Franklin Fruitmeir.
He was trying to rob Crystal Cove bank.
Uhh, that's impossible. Franklin Fruitmeir's the one who called us. (Franklin arrives)
SSScooby, Shaggy, Velma, Daphne and Fred
What?
FFranklin
I was making a clipper ship out of circus balloons when the silent alarm rang at my home. Oh, good gracious! What is that?
Shaggy
But if the monster isn't Franklin Fruitmeir, then, dude, who is it?
(Scooby unmasks The Slime Mutant)
SSScooby, Shaggy, Velma, Daphne and Fred
Professor Emmanuel Raffalo?
That's right. I was trying to scare people away from the sewers while I dug my way into the bank and got rich.
But you've got a job as a teacher. Why do you need more money?
(Emmanuel doesn't answer)
Shaggy
You're really getting ripped off.
I discovered that the Crystal Cove caves were connected to the sewer by accident while collecting mold spores for my class. Once I realized the cave led right under the bank, I put my plan into motion. Fruitmeier's gave me secret access to the sewer, so I decided to frame balloon boy for the crime by using his disgusting dessert. I staged my own disappearance to throw doubt on any hint of my involvement. Oh, it was foolproof, genius. That is, until you... you...
Meddling! Yes, meddling kids and your blasted dog ruined everything.
Wait. (shows the locket) What about this locket we found where you were digging? (Mayor Jones is angrier and shocked when he saw the locket)
Alright. Well, guess we owe you kids thanks. You did save the bank. Although you also lost the town a serious revenue stream. Stream of revenue!!!
I just don't get it. If this locket didn't belong to Professor Raffalo, then who? (The telephone rings, Shaggy pressed the button)
Shaggy
Like, K-Ghoul 101.4, what can we scare up for you, daddy-o?
Shaggy
Like, uh-uh-- Like, who... who is this?
You can call me Mr. E. You should never have brought that locket out of the cave. You don't know what you've uncovered.
Uncovered? Uncovered what?
A truth that should have remained hidden the truth behind the curse of Crystal Cove. The real mystery has just begun.
(sighs) I am so bored. We haven't had a good mystery in I don't know when.
Fred, I think I've read every magazine in your house. What's that?
Traps Illustrated? Freddie!
I, uh, I read it for the articles. In fact, it's where I got the idea for this little beauty.
Who do you expect to trap outside your front door?
DGDelivery Guy
I got a package for, uh, Fred Jones.
Shaggy
Like, um, I think it's a box.
(Fred and Daphne glare at him annoyed)
(Fred opens the box)
(picks up a card inside) It's from Mr. E! (reads) Saved this for a rainy day. Enjoy.
Mr. E gives me the creeps. (Fred starts to open the box) Fred, careful. That could be a bomb! (Fred pulls out a purse) Ooh, strike that. Cute purse! (reaches for it, but Velma takes it)
Check it out! 100% pure gator. Made in Gatorsburg!
But that's impossible! Gatorsburg hasn't manufactured Gator products in decades!
Not since the gator mines dried up!
(into phone) Hey, Mom. We're stuck in Gatorsburg.
(into phone) The van broke down.
(into phone) Think you could come and get us?
DMrs. Dinkley
Oh, I wish I could, but tonight's race night! You know me and horses! Venus is in it's third retro grade which means I'm betting on Sick Little Monkey to show.
Malevolent mushroom caps, Fred. I've already got the recliner in the reclined position. There's no going back from that.
BMrs. Blake
Oh, sweetie, it's dark out. I can't go out in the dark. (Fred, Daphne, and Velma hang up)
Shaggy
(calls and gets the answering machine) Oh, wait. Duh. It's still life night.
(slyly) I guess we're here for the whole night.
(The police car arrives)
Time to find out who these greedy gators really are. (unmasks the Creeping Creatures)
Shaggy
Greta Gator?
GGrady
After we ran out of gators, everybody moved OUT of Gatorsburg. But not us.
So with no alligators left, you decided to make imitation gator products and pass them off as real.
But you couldn't have anyone snooping around Gatorsburg. So you created the Creeping Creatures to scare people away.
Then you could run your gator ring without anyone knowing who you were or what you were up to.
Shaggy
Like, that is one ridiculous plan.
GGunther
And you know what? We would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you meddling juveniles and your unauthorized investigation of our synthetic gator accessories.
You're telling me this gator stuff is fake? I paid a fortune for this track suit!
(sighs) Man, I gotta get out of this suit. This fake gator doesn't breathe. It's starting to smell a little... funky. Arrest them... [pauses] even though I have absolutely NO JURISDICTION HERE!! (drives away)
Wait, Sheriff. can you give us a ride? The Mystery Machine isn't...
(The engine of Mistery Machine is revving)
Shaggy
Zoinks! Like, there's no engine in the Mystery Machine. It's haunted.
(Fred opens the hood, there's a letter of Mr. E)
(opens the letter and reads) "Hope you had a good time in Gatorsburg. But be warned, there are more mysteries to come. This is only one piece of the puzzle".
Puzzle? What's that supposed to mean?
Shaggy
Like, I've got a bad feeling we're gonna find out. (The lightning thunderstorms appears loudly in the sky, Shaggy grabs Scooby whimpers)
(flirtatiously) You know, Shag, I have plenty of food back at my place.
Shaggy
Um, like, thanks Velma, but Scooby Doo has had his tongue tattooed with a map of every single pizza joint in town. As you can see, we got it covered.
And so you're saying this ghost truck disappeared like a, uh... ghost truck.
Yep, that's pretty much it.
Well, looks like you kids might have stumbled onto a new tourist attraction.
Shaggy
Tourist attraction? Like, man, it nearly dumped us in the cove!
Besides, we're not even sure it was a ghost!
I'm sorry, but didn't you say there was no driver? That's textbook ghost truck, case closed!
