All right, you see what happens when you kids stick your noses where they don't belong? People get cocooned!
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!
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)
EmmanuelCouldn't you kids have waited for break?
Emmanuel
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?
Emmanuel
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)
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?
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?
Emmanuel
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)
You're really getting ripped off.
Emmanuel
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...
Emmanuel
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)
Emmanuel
Never seen it before.
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!!!
