Fred Jones

Guys, guys, guys. The Mystery Machine needs a whole new... Needs a whole new everything, and I'm never gonna get that smell out.

Fred Jones

What would a creep like that want with Scooby and Shaggy?

Fred Jones

Congratulations, you two. You just saved the world.

Fred Jones
[runs in front of Brian / Blue Falcon]

Leave Shaggy Alone!

Fred Jones
[argues to Brian / Blue Falcon]

Because of you, Scooby-Doo has a first-class ticket to the dogpocalypse!

Fred Jones

You shall be avenged. For the Mystery Machine!

Fred Jones

Sorry, gang. Never mess with another man's vehicle.

Fred Jones

Shaggy, Scooby-Doo is in grave danger, and Dastardly is on his way here right now, and he won't stop until he gets him. (Shaggy: Dastardly? Then we can't let that happen.) Exactly! Now, take me to Scooby-Doo.

All right, everybody. I would like to pose to you all the question of questions. What's next for Mystery Inc.?

Ooh, I totally have the answer. Lunch.

No, Shaggy, I think what Fred means is that...

I was also gonna say lunch.

Fred

Guys, guys, guys. The Mystery Machine needs a whole new... Needs a whole new everything, and I'm never gonna get that smell out.

I told you I needed a walk.

It's time to turn Mystery Inc. into a real business.

Shaggy

What do you mean? Like, carry a briefcase, and wear a tie, and pay taxes?

Wait, have you not been paying your taxes?

I handle our accounting.

Look, we're ready to take on bigger cases, scarier villains, and creepier mysteries, but that takes money. Fortunately, we found a possible investor.

[comes in the diner and sits down with them]

Oh, whoopee, a diner. I'll have a napkin and some hand sanitizer.

Shaggy

Whoa, man! It's Simon Cowell. [pulls out his phone and plays Shallow by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper]

Shaggy and Scooby
[singing]

In the shallow In the shallow

Shaggy
[continues singing]

I'm off the deep end watch as I dive in...

Uh, congratulations, gentlemen. You are terrible.

Fred

How does he do that? See, he's mean, but he makes it fun.

We appreciate your interest in Mystery Inc., Mr. Cowell.

Every successful group requires hard work and determination. Identifying potential is what I do, and you have got it. Fred, you're the tank. The muscle.

Fred

Cool.

Daphne is the people person. The empath.

Aw.

And Velma's got the smarts and technical savvy.

Thanks.

But you two aren't even listening. You're eating a clownishly oversized sandwich.

Shaggy

Like, sorry, man. You lost us at, "Hard work and determination."

But you got us back at "sandwich."

Look, a group can only be as strong as its weakest links. Bottom line, I can't invest with these two involved.

But, Mr. Cowell, Shaggy and Scooby are our best friends.

Shaggy

Yeah, and like, what's more valuable than friendship?

Literally, anything. You can't count on friendship. People change. And when you get into real trouble, friendship won't save the day.

Shaggy

Like, we don't need this, Scoob. Let's bounce.

Yeah, we know when we're not wanted. [he and Shaggy leave the diner]

No. Ugh. Wait.

Fred

Come on, guys.

He didn't mean it.

[comes back for the fries]

No fries for you. Hmm! [leaves]

Judy
[Meanwhile, Fred, Velma, and Daphne talk to Judy Takamoto in the Takamoto Bowl.]

Well, uh, the robots attacked these weird kids, a talking dog and a gangly dude that had this habit of using the word "like" at the start of every sentence. Almost as if he was some middle-aged man's idea of how a teenage hippie talks.

Oh, that's Scoob and Shaggy all right.

Fred

So, what happened?

Judy

I don’t know. They seemed pretty bummed out. I guess their friends dumped them in a cold-hearted way or something. And then this blue light came down from the sky and beamed them up.

Fred

Whoa, whoa, whoa, Shaggy and Scooby were taken?

Judy

Yeah… I have to assume that if they were with their friends, they wouldn’t have been kidnapped.

[hyperventilating]

I can't... I can't breathe.

Judy

Whoever those friends are must be carrying a ton of guilt on their shoulders right about now.

Okay, can you skip the emotional punishment and describe the robots, please?

Judy

Yeah, sure. They look like what’s in this box. [gets out a box with the broken robot inside.]

Fred, Daphne, and Velma
[in unison]

Whoa!

[Outside, the trio were in the Mystery Machine, examining the robot.] [offscreen]

Guys, this thing is increíble. [inside; while examining the robot] It’s fully autonomous and capable of modifying its external appearance. I’d like to shake the hand of whoever created this. [Fred and Daphne stare at her in shock.] And then, you know, throw that hand in prison for trying to kill our friends. Right? Am I right?

[notices something]

Ew.. Is that a hair?

[Velma notices a strand of hair on the robot’s claw. She uses some tweezers to pluck it out like a guitar string.]

Maybe this can lead us to our culprit.

Fred
[disgusted]

What are you doing? You're touching it with bare fingers.

Grow up, Fred. [as she puts it in a machine] Do you know how many stray hairs the average human eats every day without knowing it?

Fred

If it's more than zero, I don't wanna know. [shudders]

It's more. Much, much more. [As she puts the hair in the machine, it scans the hair strand until binary code in a receipt comes out.] Huh. Trace amounts of mustache oil, twelve-year-old scotch...

Ugh… is the bad guy my dad?

There are also some microscopic soil particles. Composition is a mix of arsenic, selenium, and… Coppertone SPF 50.

Fred

Anything over 30 is a waste.

I’ll see if the combination of these elements matches the geographical location. [types in the computer] And… bingo! [She finds the location in a junkyard called Dastardly Demolition.] Dastardly Demolition. County records. Last known owner is… [Dastardly’s pic and info appear] Dick Dastardly.

Fred

What would a creep like that want with Scooby and Shaggy?

Hmm… let’s see what the police department database has to say. [finds the info] Ooh! Quite a rep sheet. It looks like he’s wanted for the theft of archeological artifacts from a dig in Peru. [She clicks on a video of Dastardly stealing a first skull of Cerberus.]

Dastardly [on footage]

Tatty bye! [evilly laughs]

That looks like a giant dog skull.

Weird.

It gets weirder. He also stole the genealogical records of a dozen dogs from the Global Kennel Club. And apparently, he’s been stealing Netflix by using his mother’s account.

[gasps]

That is not fair for the rest of us to have to pay for Netflix!

Fred

You have to pay for Netflix?!

This will not stand. Let’s go get that Dastardly dude.

Fred
[Elsewhere, on the Mystery Machine...]

Velma, what do you get?

I built a sequencing program to cross-match the biographical data that Dastardly stole from the canine registry against Scooby-Doo.

Fred

Good thing I’m the tank because I could not do any of that.

Any leads?

All the dogs, and Scooby, seem to be related.

Jeepers.

If I take Dastardly's work and follow the trail... [She scrolls from a pic of Scooby through a long line of descendants until she finds an ancient drawing of...] Whoa! Scooby-Doo is the last descendant of Peritas?!

Who’s Peritas?

He was Alexander the Great's dog.

[On the robot, unaware of it spying on them while broken...]

Okay, so, Scooby is related to some ancient dog.

Fred

So, what does that mean?

I have no idea.

Guys! This is the most important mystery ever.

Fred

Yeah. This isn’t about some guy in a rubber mask.

It’s about one of us.

Fred, how much longer to Dastardly Demolition?

Fred

I know a shortcut. [drives down a road on the right.]

Daphne
[Meanwhile, the Mystery Machine was still on the road.]

Hurry, Fred! Shaggy and Scooby are in trouble and your shortcut to Dastardly Demolition is taking forever!

Technically, this route is 73 meters longer than the highway.

Fred

Meters, Velma? I don’t even know what that means. What are we, in Europe? [He steers the van around some passing cars.]

You know, for the record, it’s a quantitatively superior measurement system. Get with the program, Fred.

Fred

Oh, you mean like your program? [imitates Velma] I’m Velma! Beep boop bop. The world is ones and zeroes.

Maybe if you spend more time reading books, then…

Daphne

Guys! Stop. Why are we fighting?

Fred, Daphne, and Velma
[realized]

We didn’t eat lunch!

Fred

Oh, we’re just hangry.

Ever since Shag and Scoob disappeared, there’s been no one to feed us ridiculous sandwiches for breakfast.

Daphne
[sighs]

I miss them.

Fred

Oh, me too. Those little butter spreads on top of the best.

Daphne

No, the guys. Not the sandwiches.

I miss them, too.

Shaggy [on video]
[Velma pulls out her phone to show some photos of Scooby and Shaggy before coming to a recorded video. It shows Mystery Inc getting ready to take a group selfie.]

Ready?

Daphne [on video]
[Everyone made big smiles, unaware that it was on video.]

Okay, Shaggy, take the picture.

Fred [on video]

Hurry up and take it. This hurts my face.

Shaggy, you have it on video.

Shaggy [on video]

Oops! Sorry.

[He turns off the recording. Then, a text appears showing the two with Blue Falcon and Dynomutt.]

Jinkies! Scooby and Shaggy are with Blue Falcon?

Fred

Of course! Blue light, beamed up. That’s the Falcon Fury!

How do you know so much about superheroes and so little about the metric system?

Fred

Because I am an American man.

Daphne

Oh, I’m so happy they’re okay!

[Just then, they hear a police siren behind them.]

Oh, no.

[offscreen]

Pull over.

Fred

Oh, boy.

Fred
[They pull over at the side of the road.]

Okay, guys, let me do the talking. I've seen cops like six times. So I know exactly what to say. Good evening, Officer... [As he looked at the officer, it was actually a female officer.]

Daphne

Fred, say something!

Fred

Hi.

Do you kids have any idea how fast you were going? [The racing car speeds passes]

Fred

Was it, uh, too fast?

Daphne
[groans]

Funny story, Officer. We were rushing to capture this evil villain who we thought was trying to kill our friends.

Uh-huh. Step out of the vehicle. All of you.

[Fred, Daphne and Velma gets out of the Mystery Machine]

You've gotta believe us, Officer. This guy is really dangerous.

Ooh, dangerous. Sounds like he's a... handsome guy.

Daphne

Oh, no, no. Bulbous nose. Huge chin.

Yeah, but in a cool way, like Gérard Depardieu.

Daphne

No, in a super gross way.

Like a rat and a mound of hair had a baby.

[in Dastardly's voice]

How dare you! [rips herself off, revealing Dastardly]

Daphne and Velma
[In unison, shocked]

Dick Dastardly?!

Fred
[shocked]

I’ve so many… mixed feelings.

How did you find us?

Oh, let’s just say I had… [opens the front door of the Mystery Machine] ...inside information.

[The red bot climbs out of the Mystery Machine and turns to the scorpion bot. Two more come out of the back of the police cruiser. Wasp bots flew out of the police car as well.]

You have the right to remain silent. [The robots chased after Fred, Daphne and Velma.] And everything you said about my face! [They pin Fred, Daphne and Velma down on the ground.] Will be used against you in a court of claw! [The giant claw from the Mean Machine above comes down and grabs the Mystery Machine going up and the robots takes Fred, Daphne and Velma up to the airship.]

Fred

Velma?

Fred
[Velma comes to Fred and they see a study board of the history of Cerberus. The gang were in awe.] [grabs a pic of an ancient lock]

Check it. That's a lock. But to where?

[sees another pic and gasps]

The Gates to the Underworld.

[serious face]

It all makes sense now…

Fred

Oh, boy. That's the serious face. We always get in trouble after that face.

Alexander the Great and Peritas conquered the world and built the gates to protect their enormous treasure. That's where the lock comes in. Only Alexander or Peritas can unlock it. Or one of their descendants.

[gasps]

Dastardly's going to use Scooby to unlock the Gates to the Underworld.

Fred

So what? What happens then?

Then all hell breaks loose. Literally. There's more than treasure behind those gates.

Fred

Aw, jinkies. [Velma looks at him funny] What? I’m sorry! Someone had to say it.

Look over there.

[They find a memorial shrine with memorabilia like an old flight helmet, a stuffed pigeon, and a portrait of a dog named Muttley. Next to it shows Dick and Muttley on a magazine.]

Whoa.

[Daphne sees a dog bowl on the desk and picks it up. she reads the name on the bowl]

"Muttley."

[Suddenly the door opens they see Dastardly and the Rottens burst into the room.]

Put that down! [Fred puts the pic in his shirt while he snatches the bowl.] You have no right to be in here, Mystery Morons!

Fred

It’s Mystery Inc!

Yeah, Fred, he knows.

Who is Muttley?

[puts the bowl on the table and looks at portrait of Muttley]

Muttley was my partner, my criminal co-conspirator, until... until...

Dastardly [voice-over]
[Flashback begins with a portal to the underworld opening]

I opened a portal, a back door to the underworld, and through it, a glowing gold vision. [He and Muttley laugh and celebrate, then he throws Muttley to fetch gold for him] As I was about to enter, Muttley insisted on taking the risk himself.

[grumbling]

Rasm-Frasm. Ingrate. [He feels a forcefield in the portal]

Dastardly [voice-over]

I pleaded to him, "Muttley, please don't do this." But no, the flatulent fleabag wouldn't listen to reason.

[grumbles as he enters the underworld through the portal and takes the treasure]

Ta-da!

Good boy, Muttley. Bring it. Yes, yes, come on.

Dastardly [voice-over]
[Muttley is about to return to the ship with the treasure, but the forcefield blocks him from returning]

But that ticket was a one-way trip.

Muttley?

Dastardly [voice-over]

Even if I'd opened a billion portals, he could never come back.

[continues to struggle through the portal with the treasure, then he turns around and sees Cerberus, who is offscreen, coming towards him]

Uh-oh.

Muttley! Oh, no. No! Get out of there! [As the portal is getting destroyed, Muttley continues struggling through the portal, but Cerberus grabs Muttley, thus trapping him in the underworld forever.] Muttley! [echoes] MUTTLEY!!!!!!

[The portal is now destroyed as the flashback ends]

Because Muttley isn't the key. [curtain shuts] Return them to their cell!

Please, Dastardly, lf you unlock those gates you’re…

[The Rottens takes Fred, Velma and Daphne back to the cells] [grabs Fred]

Poor man’s Hemsworth stays with me.

Fred

How dare you. Wait, Chris or Liam? [Dastardly pulls him grunts]

What are you doing with him?!

Oh I have grand plans for Freddie boy. [door closes]

Shaggy
[On the Falcon Fury, Shaggy walks through the atrium]

Huh?

Young Shaggy
[A holographic person pushes a tray labeled, "For Incineration", with two canisters and Scooby's collar. Shaggy grabs the collar and gazes at it with a sad whistful expression. A flashback shows his young self putting the collar on puppy Scooby, then hugging him]

I'll never leave you. No matter what.

Fred
[In the present, Shaggy continues to stare sadly at Scooby's collar in his hands. He hears a horn honking and puts the collar in his pocket. Outside, Fred waves from the Mystery Machine]

Hey!

Shaggy
[happily]

Fred?

Fred

Shaggy?

Shaggy

Fred!

Fred

Shaggy! [hugs him]

Shaggy

How'd you get here? And where are Daphne and Velma?

Fred

Dastardly kidnapped us, and was holding us captive on his super awesome airship. Jeez, that thing is cool! Never mind. Where's Scooby-Doo? Has he been taken?

Shaggy

No, he's with his new "hero" friends. We're on a break, and you've missed a lot.

Fred

Shaggy, Scooby-Doo is in grave danger, and Dastardly is on his way here right now, and he won't stop until he gets him.

Shaggy

Dastardly? Then we can't let that happen.

Fred

Exactly! Now, take me to Scooby-Doo. [motions to the Mystery Machine]

[Scooby and Brian followed Captain Caveman to the arena]

As it turns out, I wasn't even a velociraptor's father. Any who, there it is, the slaghoople. [reveals the last Cerberus skull to them in the arena]

Brian, we found the last skull!

Mission accomplished! Now, if you would give us a hand carrying out, we'll take it back to our jet.

Uh-uh-uh. The only way to take the slaghoople is to defeat the protector in battle, and that's me.

You?

Scooby, this is it. It's my hero moment. I could totally pound the crap out of this little guy.

Doesn't sound heroic.

[to Captain Caveman]

Hey, you're on. But I think you're gonna need a few friends.

Oh, I've got friends, and they do like a good show.

[He claps his hands twice, which closes the wooden gate, then a group of cavemen and cavewomen appear to watch the battle]

All right now, let's get our fight on!

[A caveman blows a turtle horn as the battle starts]

Come at me, little man!

[The caveman group gasp in shock]

Little?! Did you just call me little?!

No, he said big.

I did call you little, pipsqueak.

He said big squeak.

You can call me... [Activates his club, which opens to reveal a sledgehammered dinosaur, then jumps into the air] Captain CAAAAAVEMAAAAAAANNNN!!!!!

[He flies down and struck Brian with his club, leaving half of his body in the ground]

I know I'm small. It's a pituitary thing. [hits Brian, sending him flying to a wall] Are you not entertained?!

[as he and Dee Dee witness the battle]

Brian! Come on.

Dynomutt is right. [Falls off the wall, which a piece of it falls on him] I'm not my dad.

Cavewomen Cheerleaders

Ra ra, ra ra ra!

[gets up from underneath the piece of the wall]

Scooby, help!

What do I do?!

Use the suit thingies!

[lands on the piece of the wall]

Who's your captain?

Cavewomen Cheerleaders

Captain Caveman!

[Captain Caveman is about to face Scooby, when Scooby himself presses a button, which activates hover boards under his paws, which he moves foolishly, much to the cavemen's amusement, then Scooby moves the hover boards to face Captain Caveman as the crowd cheers]

Wow, you're doing great. [Scooby launches a claw at him, but he grabs the string] I almost hate to do this to you. [He pulls the string and spins him] Spin it to win it!

I want my Raggy!

[Captain Caveman spins him like a top until his super suit breaks, much to his embarrassment]

You make a break for the skull, I'll pick up Brian and Scooby.

On it.

[as Captain Caveman is about to finish Scooby off]

Leave him alone! [activates her stick and fights Captain Caveman]

I love a challenge like I love dinosaur eggs, over-easy!

[The Mystery Machine, ridden by Fred and Shaggy rides into the stadium]

Uh...

Shaggy

Look out!

[Fred moves the van around where the skull is and stops]

Dang, those are some dope wheels! [Dynomutt fires his missiles at him, sending him to a wall, leaving his impact silhouette on it] Whatever wheels are!

Shaggy
[gets out of the Mystery Machine]

Scooby!

Raggy? How'd you get here?

Shaggy

No, let me go first. Scoob-

[interrupting]

Where did that anachronistic van come from?

Shaggy

Fred brought it, but that's not important.

[puzzled]

How'd he get the van to a prehistoric world hidden miles beneath the North Pole? [Fred gets out of the Mystery Machine]

Shaggy

I don't know. Why don't you ask Fred because…

[confused]

Who's Fred?

Shaggy
[continued]

…right now, I need to tell Scoob—

Fred
[in Dastardly's voice; laughs]

Not me! [kicks Shaggy to the ground with his foot, snares Scooby with a catch pole, and rips himself off, revealing Dastardly]

[In unison, shocked]

Dick Dastardly?!

That's right, and your "foolish" friend led me straight to you! [The Mean Machine arrives above the arena]

Shaggy
[looks up]

Oh, no!

[The flying Rottens come out of the Mean Machine and attack all of the cavemen as they retreat]

If you will excuse me, I have a treasure to collect.

[The Mean Machine's grabbing claw grabs the last Cerberus skull as Dastardly get on the skull with Scooby]

RAGGY!!!!

Shaggy

SCOOBY!!!!

Oh, and I almost forgot to take out the rubbish.

[The Rottens throw out Daphne, Velma and the real Fred out of the airship, but Dee Dee and Dynomutt catch Daphne and Velma]

Whoa, nice catch! [Fred lands in his arms] 'Sup?

Ta-ta! See you all in Athens. Oh, no you won't! Because the only way out is with a jet.

Well, good thing we have one!

Oh, do you now? [evilly laughs as he gets on the Mean Machine with the skull and Scooby and the airship flies away]

There's something about the way he said, "do you?" [Shaggy, Fred, Daphne, Dynomutt, Dee Dee and Velma looks at him] and then laughed that makes me think he did something to our ship.

[Scene switches to the Falcon Force and Mystery Inc. on the beach with the Falcon Fury now destroyed they shocked] [groans and drops Fred]

I hate it when I'm right.

We're lucky it doesn't happen often.

[Mystery Inc. look through the ruins of the Falcon Fury as Shaggy picks up a sock, which gets disgusted at it, and Falcon Force looks at the destroyed engine.] [sighs]

The primary engine is destroyed. The thrusters are intact, but they're way too small to launch the ship.

So, we're stuck here? [Dee Dee nods as he glares at Shaggy and walks towards him with his finger pointing at him] Well, maybe if your little buddy didn't lead the bad guy right to us.

Fred
[angrily runs in front of Brian]

Leave Shaggy alone! [shoves Brian away from Shaggy, with Dee Dee, Dynomutt and Daphne shocked]

[annoyed]

Yeah, what kind of hero "blames" other people for his problems?

Meet Brian.

[angrily]

Hey, you shut your dog face!

[angrily]

You shut your face-face! [Shaggy looked at Fred]

Fred
[angrily]

Because of you, Scooby-Doo has a first-class ticket [points his finger towards Brian] to the dogpocalypse!

[angrily towards Fred with a double-point finger]

Don't you point your finger at me!

Fred
[angrily towards Brian]

Well, don't double-point your finger at me!

Maybe, I'll triple-finger point at you!

Fred

Then, obviously I'm gonna quadruple-finger point at you!

Ha! That's just a wave, dipstick! [He and Fred start to fight Velma and Daphne shocked]

Hey, Get off of him!

He's the one that started it!

[Daphne, Velma, Dee Dee and Dynomutt run towards Fred and Brian to try to break up their fight, Shaggy shocked.]

Toxic masculinity!

Shaggy
[run towards them to try to break up their fight]

Stop! [pushing Brian and Fred] STOP IT, ALL OF YOU! [Everyone stops the fight] It's my fault. I'm to blame. I let my own jealousy break me and Scooby up. [Dynomutt, Brian, Dee Dee, Fred, Velma and Daphne looks worried] I was afraid that with his new suit and his new team, things were gonna change. [Dynomutt, Brian, Dee Dee, Fred, Velma and Daphne hangs their heads, he sighs, then cheers up] And they did change. [Dynomutt, Brian, Dee Dee, Fred, Velma and Daphne knows what does Shaggy meaning they did change] But, like, that's… that's OK. People can grow. But it doesn't mean that we're growing apart. [stands on a rock] Because the one thing that will never change is that Scooby-Doo is my best friend. 10 years ago, a little boy made a promise to a stray puppy that he'd never leave him. No matter what. And I'm gonna keep that promise. Now, it's time we stop this mustachioed menace from opening the gates to the underpass…

Underworld.

Shaggy

…and letting loose the fearsome sippy-cup.

Cerberus.

Shaggy

So what do you say we get out of Middle-earth…

Copyright infringement.

Shaggy

…and go get my always-snacking, never-lacking, often-napping dog back? Who's with me?

Shaggy

Let's do this!

[Scooby frees the gang from the crashed Mystery Machine]

You guys are alive!

Shaggy

Scooby-Doo!

[Shaggy hugs him]

Scooby!

Fred

Ya-hoo!

[The rest of the gang comes in for a group hug]

Oh, thank goodness. The gang is finally back together.

Shaggy
[to Scooby]

Buddy, I never meant to…

I know. Me neither.

[Back on the surface, Brian, Dee Dee, Dynomutt, Scooby, Shaggy, Daphne and Velma were hiding in a Roman vase.]

So that's Cerberus.

[They get back in the vase.]

We've got to stop him before he gets into the city.

Shaggy

Like, how?

We fight monsters all the time. Remember the phantom sea squid at the haunted aquarium?

That was a real estate developer with a couple of flashlights and a sound effects machine. This is the real deal. Right, Fred? Fred? [Dynomutt’s eyes light up to reveal the gang, but not Fred, inside.] Where's Fred?

Fred
[Back with Fred, he still was near his destroyed the Mystery Machine.]

You… shall be avenged. [He arms himself with the hubcap as a shield while putting some dry oil on her face like warpaint and putting on an ascot.] For the Mystery Machine!

[The gang peeks as Fred charges toward Cerberus.]

He’s just attacking. I mean, are we supposed to be attacking?

[However, Cerberus laughs and flicks Fred away, making him lose his ascot in the process.]

Fred!

Come on, hurry! Run!

Fred
[Cerberus corners the whole gang at an ancient building.]

Sorry, gang. Never mess with another man’s vehicle.

[Dastardly and Muttley run out of the Underworld while carrying a handful of gold bars, diamonds and the chest]

Farewell, fools!

Sayanora, suckers!

Fred

Dastardly?!

We're rich!

Rasm-Frasm. Money bath! Heh-heh-heh-heh!

Shaggy
[when Scooby, Shaggy, Mystery Inc. and Falcon Force defeat Cerberus by using the Rottens as bowling balls to make it slip and fall back into the realm of the Underworld]

Man, looks like we just spared the world!

[chuckles]

Bowling puns!

Shaggy
[he and Scooby fistbump]

This is so us!

Shaggy
[Everyone shuts the gate to the Underworld, trapping Cerberus]

OK, so how do we lock that puppy up? [Velma, Daphne and Fred look at each other, then at Scooby and Shaggy, worriedly] What?

One of you has to hold the gates shut here…

…while one of you locks them from… inside the Underworld.

Shaggy
[distraught]

What? No! There has to be another way. Right, Velma?

Alexander the Great built these gates to be locked only by him… and his dog, Peritas. As the last descendant of Peritas, Scooby has to do it.

But the prophecy says he needs his best friend to help him.

Fred

That's you, Shaggy.

[Shaggy and Scooby look at each other, before the latter looks towards the gate with the rotating lock with a handprint and pawprint on two different sides. Scooby then looks on in determination and courage]

There's no other way. I'm the key. I'll go.

Shaggy

No.

Shaggy
[Scooby then makes his way to the gate, with everyone looking at him gloomily; he then stops by the lock, as he prepares to place his paw on it, but all of a sudden, Shaggy slaps the two-sided lock, flipping it to the handprint side]

It says one of us had to be on the inside, but it doesn't say which one.

[worried]

No!

Shaggy
[Scooby flips the lock back to the pawprint side, making Shaggy gasp; both Shaggy and Scooby then flip the lock to either the handprint or pawprint sides of the lock, before Shaggy stood in front of it when it was turned to the handprint side, which Scooby accidentally slaps him multiple times to prevent him from touching the lock] [grabbing Scooby's paw and calming him down]

Buddy, back when we were kids, you saved me. Now it's my turn. [then places his hand on the lock's handprint side, activating the gate in which Shaggy then disappears]

[horrified]

No! Don't! Raggy, wait! No!

[Scooby gasps, after the gate to the Underworld then locks, before Shaggy appears on the lock from the other side of the gate, then saddened]

Raggy.

Shaggy

Scoob, you're the best friend I could ever ask for. [sighs] And you always will be.
[As the gate completely locks, Scooby whimpers as he watches the lock's reflection of Shaggy dissipate, turning into a glowing green lock of the pawprint; Scooby then saddenly places his paw on the pawprint, which makes the entire gate as well as the entire ancient temple to vanish back into the temple's present state; Scooby then whimpers and then starts sobbing, howling and mourning the loss of his friend. The gang comes over to him and gives him a comforting hug as themselves and the Falcon Force grieved about Shaggy as well.]

[sobs]

Raggy... [Daphne, Velma and Scooby sobbing]

Are we missing something? "A pair whose friendship forever grows." [wipes her eyes] Does it mean something else?

[looks Scooby in the eyes]

I think it means that Scoob and Shaggy's friendship will live on... whether they're together or not. [hugs Scooby]

But...why would Alexander make a gate that would separate him from his best friend forever?

Fred

He must have built a way out.

[looking behind Velma]

Uh, guys?

[A statue of Alexander the Great and Peritas magically appear in front of the gang]

It's Alexander the Great. Look at this inscription. It's a message from him. "Our bond will never break or bend..."

"...so, my friend, it's time to return home."

Maybe Scooby should give it a try.

[Scooby walks up to the statue and sadly looks at it]

Raggy, you promised you'd never leave. Come home.

[A door magically unlocks and opens to reveal Shaggy, who is unharmed]

Raggy?

Shaggy
[Cerberus's paw kicks him out and closes the door as the statue disappears]

Zoinks! I guess friendship really did save the day.

[relieved]

Raggy! [laughs in joy]

Shaggy

Scooby-Doo!

[Scooby runs up to Shaggy and hugs him as do the gang]

I love you guys!

[Dee Dee laughs]

You gave us quite a scare, Shaggy.

Shaggy
[Shaggy takes Scooby's collar out of his pocket and puts it back on Scooby's neck as Scooby himself smiles]

Well, it takes more than a 3-headed monster to keep me away from my best bud.

Tank, empath, brain. I finally figured out what you guys are. You're the heart of Mystery, Inc.

[Scooby licks Shaggy as the Falcon Force look happily at them and Dynomutt licks Brian, which he exclaims in pain]

Sorry. Metal tongue. Shoulda thought that through.

[angrily]

Put me down, you traitorous tin cans!

[Two flying Rottens, who had captured Dastardly and Muttley, lower them in front of the gang on knees] [grumbles]

Rasm-Frasm. Stupid robots!

Time to pay for your crimes, Dick Dastardly. [towards him]

Shaggy

Or is it? [pulls off a mask revealing…]

All
[In unison, shocked]

Simon Cowell?! [Muttley growls angrily at him]

Wow, that is a solid impersonation. [Fred looks at her]

[last words]

Thank you. I also played Rum Tum Tugger in my secondary school's production of Cats. [Muttley sniffs]

This makes no sense. [Scooby, Shaggy, Dusty, Daphne, Fred, Brian, Dee Dee and Dynomutt looks at her she walks towards him beside Muttley] How could he have time to judge the world's greatest talent shows and build a giant airship? [she pulls off another mask to reveal he is really… the real Dick Dastardly!]

All
[In unison, shocked]

Dick Dastardly?! [Velma nod and walked back]

[failing his Simon Cowell's disguise]

Drat! No one ever goes for the double unmasking. [Muttley snickers as Dastardly frowns at him]

[to Dastardly]

You are coming with us.

[The Falcon Force carry Dastardly and Muttley away to custody] [his last words, enraged]

I would've gotten away with it, if it weren't for you "MISMATCHED" MEDDLING MISCREANTS!

Fred
[to Scooby and Shaggy]

Congratulations, you two. You just saved the world.

How do you feel?

Hungry.
[The gang laugh]

Fred
[Back in Venice, California, we come to a grand opening where on the front building we find Mystery Inc unveiling their new headquarters called "Mystery Inc. Supernatural Mystery Solvers". The crowd applauds.]

It's perfect. [to Shaggy while feeding Scooby hot dogs] Wait, Shaggy, where's the DJ you hired?

Shaggy

Like, they'll be here any minute.

Fred

"They"?

[Soon, They look up at the Falcon Fury Mark 2 arrived. We see the ship lowering down a new van with Blue Falcon being the DJ on top. As it lands, Dee Dee and Dynomutt come out.]

Surprise!

You know we wouldn't miss your grand opening!

[on speaker]

DJ Blue Falcon! [Flying in was Blue Falcon himself. The crowd cheers. Balloons dropped down right on time.] And that is how you make an entrance. [to Keith] Good job, Keith.

Keith
[on speaker]

Thank you, BF!

Fred
[Fred digs the upgraded Mystery Machine.] [hugs the Mystery Machine]

I'm so happy you're back.

[to Dee Dee]

You know, I’m proud of him, but he could’ve done this without us.

I know. I am so gonna need a raise.

Looks like we're on the case.

Fred

Let’s hit it.

[to Dusty]

Hey, Dusty! Watch the shop, please.

Shaggy

What do you say, buddy?

Lets Scooby-Dooby-Do It!
