All the roads leading in and out of the city have been eaten. They're cutting us off.
Perhaps as-- as-- a species our time is over. It's evolution, people. We should all submit to the herd. I think I'll see if they're hiring any Sheriffs.
Bronson, although I find your immediate surrender oddly endearing, you're not going anywhere. Kids, there must be a way to stop these things.
I think I have it. It's all the little pieces, all the clues. Especially the fact that Professor Pericles referred to all the skull cattle as male drones. And then there's the sweet cheese.
Shaggy
I think I see where you're going with this, Daph. If Scooby and I can eat all that honey sweet cheese, those things will starve and we'll save the town.
Count me in. I'm ready to eat my way to victory.
That's not what I was thinking. They're like bees. The herd is all male drones. So there must be a queen in the cow hive at Destroido.
Daphne, that's so genius I should have thought of it. They'll be totally protective of their queen. If we could capture the queen cow...
We could use her to lead the herd away from the town.
I don't know. I don't know. I think my plan of letting the herd enslave humanity is pretty darn good.
My fake father mayor dad used to keep a helicopter here at city hall.
I still have it. Quick, it's our only chance.
You did it, kids. You saved the town.
I feel a little sorry for those skull cattle. It's not their fault they're horrible genetically engineered mutations.
Look. (The horrible herd rise in the ocean) Those things are part fish, remember? They can swim.
(The horrible herd swim away from Crystal Cove)
Shaggy
You mean, like, other than release unnatural super predators into the ecosystem?
It's best to just walk away from this one, kids. Just... walk... away.
(Everyone walk away from the horrible herd in the ocean)
(Scooby and Shaggy are searching Nova)
Shaggy
(finds Nova lying on the ground) Scooby-Doo, over there!
(Scooby grabs Nova alive and injured)
She's alive. Come on, we have to get her to the hospital.
(The Zombies Rude Boy and the Ska-tastics arrive and play their hit at the top of City Hall)
ZRZombie Rude Boy
(laughs)
(Martha, Ian and the gang covered their ears except Shaggy and Scooby)
We have to fight this MUSICALLY! We need ultimate POWER CHORD!
(Martha, Ian and the people start dancing unwittingly)
I'm fighting it, but I can't resist their catchy use of Caribbean mento and calypso with American jazz and rhythm and blues!
Shaggy, Scooby, why isn't it affecting you?
I'm a dog. Music is just noise to us.
Shaggy
And, like, you've heard me sing. I'm totally tone deaf.
Shaggy! Scooby! You're our only hope! It's up to you to save the town! It's up to you to save us!
(Fred, Daphne and Velma start dancing. Shaggy and Scooby are shocked)
Shaggy
Like, zoinks!
Shaggy
Like, what do we do, Scoob? Everyone in town is a total ska zombie, and we have to save them! But, like, we don't know anything about music!
We don't, but we know people who do.
SSShaggy and Scooby
(watch the Hex Girls poster) The Hex Girls!
Now, let's see who's really behind the evil ska music. Rude Boy is actually... (unmasks the Zombie Rude Boy)
SSScooby, Shaggy, Velma, Daphne and Fred
Rude Boy?
(Shaggy, Daphne and Velma unmask the three Zombie Ska-tastics)
IHIan Hope
You're alive! But the plane crashed 30 years ago.
Was an elaborate hoax, wasn't it, Mr. Rude Boy?
RBRude Boy
Oi. You blighters got it in for me, right. But yeah, we faked the whole bloomin' thing. All I ever wanted to do was play ska and be super rich and super famous. But apparently, it just wasn't in the tarot cards, maybe the fact that we only had one song had something to do with it. So me and me mates, the Ska-tastics here, we decided we'd fake our own deaths. Then, we could write the perfect song and return to take the music world by storm.
I don't understand, Rude Boy. Why did you wait 30 years to make a comeback?
RBRude Boy
Ah, don't be such a muppet, Martha Quinn. We planned to be only gone one year, but writing the perfect song took bloomin' forever. By the time we'd cracked it, ska wasn't popular anymore. But everyone loves the undead. So, we began dressing as zombie mogs, riding our undead scooters and wearing polycarbonite-lined skull masks to hide our identity.
So, in the end, desperate for success, Rude Boy and the Ska-tastics unleashed a dancing plague on the world using an inharmonic chord with special frequencies designed to induce post-hypnotic suggestion to sell their music.
Just as I thought, but didn't say. Dance them away, Sheriff. We are done here.
(Rude Boy and the Ska-tastics walk dancing into the police car)
Now let's see who this mysterious woman stealer really is.
(Velma unmasks Dandy Highwayman)
Shaggy
Like, seriously? But you're not even British.
LLibrarian
It's simple, really. You spend a life reading about other people's exciting adventures and never, never, never have one of your own. It's awful. (sadly) I'm so lonely.
Jinkies. How did I miss that one?
LLibrarian
I never really had any friends growing up. All I had were my books. For years I stayed in my room and read about incredible adventures, other people's adventures. Then, I got an idea, I was going to become the Dandy Highwayman. I was going to be the king of adventures and adored by women everywhere. I studied how to do an English accent. I incorporated a motorcycle helmet into my costume's hat and practiced my motorcycle skills for hours and hours. Then, I discovered something unimaginable: the key to a woman's total admiration and devotion. All you have to do is pay attention to them when they're talking. CRAZY, isn't it? It wasn't until I started to moderate the book club that I learned how to listen. From there, I actually became interested in what women have to say. Before long, I was fully engaged in their desires and feelings. I was living in the dream. And I would have gotten away with it, if it weren't for you meddling romance killers.
I'm not buying it for a second. You put some kind of voodoo MAGIC SPELL on them, you did.
LLibrarian
Never. I just listened, that's all. Except when the going got tough. I had a little help. (uncovers the earplugs) These earplugs were the only magic I used.
I knew it! I knew there was some kind of trick involved. Listening to women? Who ever heard of such a thing?!
(Mayor Nettles and Daphne arrive)
Jeepers! The librarian? I kind of feel bad for him. You know, he never really abducted the wives. They said they went with him willingly because he was mysteriously charming and--
We know, we know. The whole listening and paying attention thing. We get it already. Whatever.
(Sheriff Stone and deputy take the Librarian into custody)
Sorry to bother you so early, kids. But the neighbors have been calling in constantly with reports of unearthly moaning, inhuman howling, blood curling screams...
Shaggy
In other words, same old same old.
You can count on us, Mayor Nettles.
We'll see if there's anything mysterious going on here.
Come on, come on, let's go! Let's get this over with.
After we're finished here, we need to relocate the Planispheric Disk.
Shaggy
Good idea, Scoob. Yeah, you and I will re-hide the disc while you guys check out the scary house.
You're out of luck, Shaggy. Remember? Fred hid the Disk last time. And he's the only one who knows where it is.
Oy, can we hurry? Please?
Okay, let's get started. But first, well gang, it looks like we got another...
Mystery on our hands! Oh, Fred, we're such soul mates. We're finishing each other's sentences.
SVShaggy, Velma and Scooby
Split up and look for clues?
(The gang splits)
Shaggy
Like, I guess that means we're all soul mates, haha.
(In the present version of Crystal Cove)
EFEvil Fred
Everybody out.
Shaggy
Like, this is more like it. (chuckles) The F-F-Fearatorium Food Emporium makes me, like, f-f-famished.
EFEvil Fred
(grabs Shaggy and Scooby hardly) What's wrong with you two? You're like bottomless pits. We're not here to indulge your munchies. We're here for that Planispheric Disk.
Freddie, you're the one who hid it here. I don't understand why you don't know where it is.
EFEvil Fred
Oh, you don't understand? Intellect isn't your strong suit, huh? What about you? Got any smarts in there behind those eye goggles?
(In the present version of Crystal Cove)
EFEvil Fred
It's got to be here somewhere. Keep searching.
Shaggy
What's the score?
EFEvil Fred
The score, Norbert, is that we're gonna find that disk tonight.
Shaggy
I meant the score to the baseball game. That you're listening to. On that thingymabob.
EFEvil Fred
Heh. I knew that.
It's not Norbert. It's Norville. And nobody calls him that. It's always Shaggy.
EFEvil Fred
I suggest less nitpicking and more searching. (talks through headphone) Wait. What? It's not here. Get back in the van.
(Scooby thinks Fred is crazy)
(In the present version of Crystal Cove)
EFEvil Fred
I don't know. Look in all the desks, I guess. I'll check out the superintendent's office. (leaves the gang)
Gang, something is definitely wrong here. (writes the blackboard with chalk) I mean, is it me or is Fred acting even stranger than usual?
SSScooby, Shaggy and Daphne
It's not you.
Maybe if we can retrace our steps, we'll see a pattern. (writing) F-F-Fearatorium Food Emporium. Arcane-A-Rama Movieplex. Kennel of the horrible hounds. Education board of Crystal Cove. (marks the first and second 4 letters from top to bottom)
Shaggy
And who sent the message?
My guess? The real Fred. Wherever he is, he's probably in life-threatening peril.
And in the clutches of some hideous creature.
(In the present version of Crystal Cove)
EFEvil Fred
Aha! Now that's more like it.
Shaggy
Should I just keep driving around in circles, Mr. Fred? Oh, sir? (drives the Mystery Machine in a circle)
EFEvil Fred
No, the old abandoned factory, hippie. And floor it.
(In Steelco Industries, the gang and Evil Fred arrived)
EFEvil Fred
Fan out. Search every inch of this place until we find that disk.
Shaggy
Well, like, if you remember hiding it here, like, dude, where is it?
EFEvil Fred
Well, the exact location slipped my mind. (leaves the gang to search the Planispheric Disk alone)
We can't let that fake Fred get his hands on the Planispheric Disk.
Shaggy
Like, we do what the real Fred would do. We trap him.
Agreed. But it's got to be before he gets his hands on...
EFEvil Fred
The Planispheric Disk. I found it! I found it!
Now that you've got it, what are you going to do with it? Fake Fred.
EFEvil Fred
Ahh, well done. You finally figured out I'm an imposter. So what? I'm taking the Planispheric Disk, and who's going to stop me? You? You?
NO! (arrives) Me. I mean you. Me. I mean me. You me. I-- Aw, heck. You get the idea. (starts fighting Evil Fred)
