Rick Spartan quotes from Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated

Sheriff Stone

What in the name of kettle corn is going on? I thought you said he (Cachinga) was the creature.

Daphne

Sorry we had to trick you, Sheriff, but we needed everyone to believe it was Cachinga (Fred deactivates the trap) so we could set a trap for the person who's really behind this.

(gasps)

Rick Spartan

Marion!

Sheriff Stone

But how did you know that she'd attack? I don't get that!

We knew that if Dr. Spartan found out that the curse was fake he'd want to go back to living a life of adventure in the jungle.

Velma

A life she definitely didn't want.

(annoyed) Fine. I admit it.

Sheriff Stone

Well, you kind of have to. We caught you in the costume. But how--how did you know it was her?

We found this ring at the botanical gardens. A woman's ring. (to Marion) You went to Oxford, too, didn't you?

Yes. (puts the ring on her finger)

Rick Spartan

But, Marion, why did you do it?

Because I love you! Because I hate living in the jungle. It's icky. I decided if I couldn't convince you to give up that life, I'd scare you out of it. I came up with the fake legend of Sklar Gringat. I forged an ancient map to the ruins and put it someplace you'd find it. I knew you wouldn't be able to resist the challenge. You would be so consumed with finding your next great treasure, you wouldn't be thinking of me, as usual. I pretended to break my ankle because I knew you'd send Cachinga for help and go up into the ruins by yourself. And when you did, my plan fell into place. It gave me a chance to sneak around the back of the ruins, which were actually an old abandoned movie set. The Headless Horror costume was the final piece of the puzzle. I had it specially designed and took months of pilates to train my abdominal muscles to the point where I could control the mouth with my abs.

Rick Spartan

But the shrunken head... It talked to me.

I got it at a Halloween store. You can record whatever you want it to say. I'm sorry, darling. I never meant to hurt you. I just wanted us to live a normal life. Which we could have if it weren't for those meddling sycophants. Can you ever forgive me?

Rick Spartan

Sure, I do, baby. I know I'm not the easiest guy to live with. You were just trying to get through to me. Don't worry, we'll work it out. (He and Marion kiss) Sheriff, I don't want to press any charges.

Sheriff Stone

Yeah, I, uh, figured.

Rick Spartan

Take me back to my room?

Anything.

Rick Spartan

Cachinga, come.

(leaves the police car with the spear) Thank you. It's been lovely.

All the food is gone.

Shaggy

It ate, like, everything.

Daphne

What was that thing?

Rick Spartan

That is the Gluten Demon. If we don't stop it, it'll devour the entire food supply and starve us all, until there's nothing, and no one left alive in Crystal Cove.

Now let's see who the Gluten Demon really is. (unmasks the Gluten Demon)

Francilee Jackson!

Velma

Not a big surprise after the work that Cachinga, Daphne, and I did. Francilee's cooking show wasn't taped before a live audience. She made the tape herself, allowing her to work the special effects and adding in the Gluten Demon during editing.

Plus, her stage name is Francilee Jackson, but her birth certificate lists her as Agatha Juniper Schildenheimer.

Daphne

As AJS, she signed those manifests. She rented that secret warehouse.

Velma

And she has a strange food allergy to all things healthy. Which is why she reacted to Cachinga's salad lunch so insanely.

Daphne

The only thing we don't know is why.

Oh, y'all, it's so simple. I needed a big comeback. After my cornbread recipe was revealed to have no corn in it, I was ruined. Ruined! My only chance was to open my own bakery where I could serve up my new breakout dish: The double bacon mayonnaise butter-stuffed pasta surprise with buttered bread sauce! Any cook worth their kosher sea salt knows the legend of the Gluten Demon. I dressed up like that and started destroying every restaurant in town so there'd be no competition when I opened mine. And I would have done it, too, been a huge success again, if it weren't for all y'all bread-hating health fanatics!

That's it, boys. Let's roll her away.

(the bowl rolls away from her) My bowl! My precious bowl! NO! My bowl! It's mine! MINE!

It's ancient maya by the look of it.

Daphne

(reads the bowl) TERCERO LLAVE. It's the third key.
