Martha QuinnHang on. I've prepared a slideshow on every music group from the last 60 years. (shows the gang with a slide projector) Rude Boy and the Ska-tastics. Poor Rude Boy could never quite ride the fame train the way he wanted, so it's said that he turned to voodoo magic to further his career. He cast love spells on the audience. He cursed other bands. Once, he even cast an enchantment of never-ending pain on a synthesizer. Real crazy stuff. Rude Boy always said he would come back from the grave. And now, it looks like he has.
Doesn't anybody ever stay dead around here?
(The Zombies Rude Boy and the Ska-tastics arrive and play their hit at the top of City Hall)

(Martha, Ian and the gang covered their ears except Shaggy and Scooby)
Martha Quinn
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.
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)
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.
Martha Quinn
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)
