SPEAKER_01 1:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:19

But then I feel like after a few weeks with Scrappy-Doo, it may go down the trailer. It may brow it may beat us down. Yeah. At least for sure when they ditch half of the game.

SPEAKER_01 1:30

I know. I don't like when they ditch half the gang. You know. It's no fun.

SPEAKER_00 1:34

But then it'll pick back up when we get through the Scrappy-Doo era and we get to a pup named Scooby-Doo.

SPEAKER_01 1:38

That's gonna be a lot of fun. We're gonna have a lot of fun with that one. That's those are a lot of good episodes. They're just so good. Yeah, yeah. I know that's our own biased opinion, but I feel like that is a really good series. I mean, it's just such a such a good one.

I don't know. It's gonna be a pretty I think it's gonna be a pretty good one. You know, the chase scenes with the ghosts are pretty good. Phantom shadows. Phantom shadows, you know, dancing with them and giving them the phone. Yeah, definitely going to hell.

SPEAKER_00 3:04

Wait, no, that's not this one.

SPEAKER_01 3:06

What are you doing? You're talking about the wrong episode. Wait a minute. Come on now.

SPEAKER_00 3:12

Maybe that's a little tease for the listeners.

SPEAKER_01 3:15

Might be a little bit of a tease, you know. Come on. Oh man, you gotta stop teasing people like that. Well, honestly. It's gonna happen. They're gonna see something.

SPEAKER_00 3:29

No, they really should have known this by now. You know, it's been it's been what? I don't know how many years since Scooby Natural came out as an episode. Yeah, it's been Was that what, 18 or 19?

SPEAKER_01 3:45

Man, I I wish I knew, but I mean it it was season 13. So season 15, they ended. That was in 2020. So it was at least two or three years.

SPEAKER_00 3:55

So yeah, either 2018, 2019.

SPEAKER_01 3:57

Something like that. Well, I would say 18, probably 17 or 18, I think. Because every year is a new one.

SPEAKER_00 4:04

Well, I know I know the writer of that episode also wrote the Return to Zombie Island movie.

SPEAKER_01 4:11

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_00 4:13

Um. But there were there were production issues with that.

SPEAKER_01 4:20

Yeah, I definitely agree with you on that one. I never oh that's oh wait, that's one we're probably gonna have to watch somewhere down the line, too.

SPEAKER_00 4:27

Yeah, we'll be we can talk a little bit more about that when we get down.

SPEAKER_01 4:31

Yeah, when we get down there, how however long that was gonna take to get to.

SPEAKER_00 4:35

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 4:36

You know.

SPEAKER_00 4:37

Haven't figured quite mapped out yet like how and when we'll start tackling some of the movies, bigger movies.

SPEAKER_01 4:46

The direct to video movies, basically. Yep. Yep.

SPEAKER_00 4:51

Alright. So until then, we'll go off to watch the episode. You guys can to, you know, watch it on Tubi. Buy it digitally on whichever platforms you buy your digital media from. Yep. Buy physical copies on DVD or Blu-ray, you know, from wherever you can buy physical copies from yet these days.

SPEAKER_01 5:15

Yeah, there's not very many of them left anymore, sadly enough.

SPEAKER_00 5:18

If you still have a VHS player and want to look for it on VHS, you've got that right.

SPEAKER_01 5:23

Yeah, definitely do it.

SPEAKER_00 5:25

Don't know how easy it is to find.

SPEAKER_01 5:29

It might not be, but you know, keep looking, guys. You'll find something eventually. Right.

SPEAKER_00 5:35

But until then, we're gonna go split up and look for some clues, and we will be right back. And we're back. That was a night of fright is no delight, and what a delight it was on that frightful night.

SPEAKER_01 5:56

What's that? That's a mouthful.

SPEAKER_00 5:59

I swear, that's that title is just so much fun to say.

SPEAKER_01 6:02

It is, isn't it? It's a little tongue twister.

SPEAKER_00 6:04

It is. So going into the episode, we open with creepy house on a hill that is essentially just an island.

SPEAKER_01 6:20

That's a really small island, a host, just a house. Yeah, the island.

SPEAKER_00 6:24

No, the island is literally just a hill with a house on it.

SPEAKER_01 6:28

Pretty much. That's a really good thing.

SPEAKER_00 6:30

How do you really live there?

SPEAKER_01 6:31

I don't know. That's a good question, but apparently he lived there very well. I don't maybe there was a way to get there at one time.

SPEAKER_00 6:38

Like, but like but still, because they know they're boating over there.

SPEAKER_01 6:43

Right. Yeah, I mean it it's not too unbelievable. I mean, there are no it's not unbelievable. There are lakes that have that where people actually park somewhere and have to drive, have to, you know, move on.

SPEAKER_00 6:58

I just find it inconvenient for food.

SPEAKER_01 7:00

Well, what do you can do in the winter? You have to walk over the s the ice and everything to get there?

SPEAKER_00 7:06

You know, that's uh going off the assumption that you know they live somewhere that has winter like that.

SPEAKER_01 7:12

Well, there's one on my grandparents' lake. There's one that they have to drive over on the boat because they can't get there any other way. So how what do they do? They have to That's the other thing. When it's winter and they have to put the boat away, how do they get back to shore when they don't have the boat when it's on the other side I mean, do they have someone come pick them up and they cook them off? They must know what they're doing. They've been doing it since I've been going there. That's been how many years ago?

SPEAKER_00 7:41

Well, it's like, you know, with what we see later in this episode, like I don't think the side you know where this house is, like, I don't think that that lake freezes or that body of water.

SPEAKER_01 7:50

Yeah, well, yeah, they're lucky that doesn't, but I'm pretty sure theirs does, so anyways, you know, Mystery Inc.

SPEAKER_00 8:00

are on a boat heading to this creepy island. Yep. Because as it turns out, Scooby was mentioned in a will to inherit a fortune from uh Colonel Beauregard Sanders. A Beauregard? Yep. I honestly I wonder if there's any relation to Colonel Beauregard, that's Shaggy's uncle.

SPEAKER_01 8:24

Yeah, I wonder too.

SPEAKER_00 8:26

That would be like who was a Confederate soldier. Not quite sure how that works out.

SPEAKER_01 8:33

Right.

SPEAKER_00 8:34

Because what? That would have been a hundred years prior to Scooby.

SPEAKER_01 8:42

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 8:42

Specifically, like this iteration of Scooby.

SPEAKER_01 8:45

Right.

SPEAKER_00 8:46

So thanks, Scooby, for making me do math.

SPEAKER_01 8:55

Roar welcome.

SPEAKER_00 8:57

Um, you know.

SPEAKER_01 9:00

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_00 9:00

It sure is a creepy night for a will reading.

SPEAKER_01 9:05

Definitely is. Thank you, Daphne, for saying that.

SPEAKER_00 9:07

Yep. So, you know, they go to the spooky mansion.

SPEAKER_01 9:12

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 9:14

Once inside, uh Cosgood creeps, you know, has gathered all of the beneficiaries together and was instructed by the late colonel to play a record that is essentially his last will.

SPEAKER_01 9:32

How do you record yourself onto a record? That doesn't make sense.

SPEAKER_00 9:36

You probably recorded it before he died.

SPEAKER_01 9:38

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 9:39

You know, people who do like you know those video wills.

SPEAKER_01 9:42

Right.

SPEAKER_00 9:43

Nowadays.

SPEAKER_01 9:44

Just seemed a lot more complicated to do a recording on a record tape when it must be in like a studio or something to do it. You know, it seems more of it.

SPEAKER_00 9:52

You know, it's it could have, you know.

SPEAKER_01 9:56

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 9:57

Records are commonplace at the time.

SPEAKER_01 9:59

Well, I know, but I just meant like, you know, they're not as yeah high up there in the high tech as we are now. You know what I mean? Like it's not as easy back then as it is now just to record. We're recording right off of a computer. How would they have been able to do that back then?

SPEAKER_00 10:16

They had computers in the 60s.

SPEAKER_01 10:19

They did.

SPEAKER_00 10:20

Yeah, but they like took up a whole entire room.

SPEAKER_01 10:24

Oh, that's that's inconvenient.

SPEAKER_00 10:27

Anyways, okay.

SPEAKER_01 10:29

Moving on.

SPEAKER_00 10:30

The beneficiaries are Cousin Slicker, Cousin Simple, Nephew Norval, and sweet cousin Meldehyde.

SPEAKER_01 10:40

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 10:41

And the Colonel's good friend Scooby-Doo.

SPEAKER_01 10:44

Not that they're all here.

SPEAKER_00 10:46

Yep. Basically, they're all in line to inherit one million dollars of a fortune. Yep.

SPEAKER_01 10:53

Providing.

SPEAKER_00 10:55

But they have to spend the entire night in the house.

SPEAKER_01 10:59

Okay, that doesn't sound too bad.

SPEAKER_00 11:01

The house is haunted.

SPEAKER_01 11:02

Haunted?

SPEAKER_00 11:03

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 11:04

You should have said yes, haunted. You missed the script, right? Yes, haunted.

SPEAKER_00 11:08

Yes.

SPEAKER_01 11:09

Really? How did you know he was gonna say that? But maybe the ghost did know that. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 11:18

You know.

SPEAKER_01 11:20

Oh man.

SPEAKER_00 11:22

You know, whoever survives until morning gets the money.

SPEAKER_01 11:26

Yep. They get the money. We'll see who's alive if any of them are.

SPEAKER_00 11:31

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 11:31

Apparently.

SPEAKER_00 11:32

Whoops. And with that, the lawyer dips out.

SPEAKER_01 11:35

Yep, he leaves. You know, be back in the morning. Yep.

SPEAKER_00 11:39

It's 10 o'clock, so it's time to turn in.

SPEAKER_01 11:42

Yep. Time to go to bed.

SPEAKER_00 11:44

But into what?

SPEAKER_01 11:45

I don't know. We never but into what?

SPEAKER_00 11:50

So, you know, we cut to the guy's room. So it's Fred and Shaggy sharing a room, separate beds. You know, Scooby's off to go take a bath.

SPEAKER_01 12:01

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 12:01

Shaggy's hitting the old lunch sack, adds some salt and pepper to his sandwich. Uh-huh. And goes to add a little bit of fish food.

SPEAKER_01 12:10

But the fish doesn't like that.

SPEAKER_00 12:11

No, the fish does not like it. Shaggy's scared of a fish. So he puts it.

SPEAKER_01 12:16

Well, I think you'd be scared too if it growled at you like that. I think that would be. Yeah, probably. Okay, never mind.

SPEAKER_00 12:23

I don't think I would put fish food on a sandwich.

SPEAKER_01 12:25

I don't think I would either, but yeah, apparently it's appetizing enough for Shaggy to eat.

SPEAKER_00 12:30

Can he help it that his first toy was a garbage disposal?

SPEAKER_01 12:34

I suppose not.

SPEAKER_00 12:39

Scooby goes off to take his bath while he's in the tub. Some tiles from the wall sideway to reveal a green ghost. A green ghost. A phantom shadow.

SPEAKER_01 12:51

Ah, the phantom shadow.

SPEAKER_00 12:52

The bathtub tips up. Yep. And it slides down into a secret tunnel in the wall.

SPEAKER_01 12:58

Hmm. That's interesting. A secret passageway?

SPEAKER_00 13:01

Yep. Another one. Where Scooby is then tormented by the Phantom Shadow.

SPEAKER_01 13:10

Torment.

unknown 13:11

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 13:13

Well, Scooby, you know, runs out of the basement through a wall, up some stairs, and ends up back in his room with Fred and Shaggy.

SPEAKER_01 13:23

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 13:23

And tries to explain what's going on. Where we find out Shaggy is an expert at trades.

SPEAKER_01 13:30

He most definitely is.

SPEAKER_00 13:31

So yeah, next time we're playing trades, I want Shaggy and my team.

SPEAKER_01 13:34

I want Shaggy MIT too. We're gonna have to team up here.

SPEAKER_00 13:38

I guess so. We'll have to find more people to play trades with.

SPEAKER_01 13:41

Well, yes, but then the podcast team sticks together. We should name we'll name ourselves the podcast team. That'll be our name.

SPEAKER_00 13:48

Scooby Zone.

SPEAKER_01 13:49

Scooby Zone. That's our official team name.

SPEAKER_00 13:53

Well, Fred and Shaggy go look at the bathtub where it's bolted to the floor.

SPEAKER_01 13:59

So it definitely can't move. It's bolted to the floor. How's that gonna work?

SPEAKER_00 14:04

Yeah. Oh well. Oh well. You know, they go to bed, you know, clock chimes midnight. Yep. And the green ghost goes into Cousin Simple's room.

SPEAKER_01 14:15

Hmm.

SPEAKER_00 14:16

You know, everybody hears a noise, leaves their room, go to Cousin Simple's room, and he's gone.

SPEAKER_01 14:24

Gone? Gone. Where'd he go?

SPEAKER_00 14:29

You know, the first was gone, the rest will go. Unless they leave the island and row, row, row. The Phantom Shadow has gotten him.

SPEAKER_01 14:40

Oh no, not the Phantom Shadow.

SPEAKER_00 14:42

Pretty much on his way to get the rest of them.

SPEAKER_01 14:44

Uh-oh.

SPEAKER_00 14:47

Cousin Slicker says, you know, everybody should just go to their rooms and lock the doors.

SPEAKER_01 14:53

Well, that's not gonna do them any good, because the ghost can get in through secret passageways. How's that gonna be? Ghost can walk through walls. That's right, ghost. Yeah, that's a ghost fire. Yeah, but does a ghost know they can walk through a wall? Maybe they need the secret passageway. Right.

SPEAKER_00 15:10

Anyways, they can Mr. Inc. constructs a dummy of Scooby-Doo.

SPEAKER_01 15:15

So that way. I mean, you know.

SPEAKER_00 15:17

So that way when the ghost comes to grab Scooby, they can grab the ghost.

SPEAKER_01 15:22

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 15:23

There's no evidence that the ghost is solid here, Fred.

SPEAKER_01 15:26

No evidence. It's a ghost. It's a ghost. Yeah, but the ghost doesn't.

SPEAKER_00 15:33

Shake and scoob are hiding on a pipe outside.

SPEAKER_01 15:37

Definitely a good idea. I can't see any wait. Is this our safety concern for the episode?

SPEAKER_00 15:41

Yeah, probably don't hang off of drain pipes off the side of houses.

SPEAKER_01 15:46

Definitely not, even though I don't know very many that have any, but I wouldn't do it if I wouldn't do it though. You know.

SPEAKER_00 15:55

When at the top of the pipe, we see the hand of the Phantom Shadow push the pipe, and now Shaggy and Scoob are swinging back and forth.

SPEAKER_01 16:04

Oh no. Hey, this is definitely a safe.

SPEAKER_00 16:07

Velma tries to help, but ends up grabbed by Shaggy and Scooby, where they fall over, smack on a rock, and end up in a secret tunnel underneath the island.

SPEAKER_01 16:21

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 16:22

They find some footprints.

SPEAKER_01 16:24

Right.

SPEAKER_00 16:25

And we figure the Phantom Shadow has dirty feet.

SPEAKER_01 16:29

Yeah, he does. Why wouldn't he have dirty feet?

unknown 16:32

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 16:32

That's a pretty good. So it's time to follow those dirty feet. Yep.

SPEAKER_01 16:36

Yeah, follow.

SPEAKER_00 16:37

See where things go. And Shaggy's just gonna have to be brave.

SPEAKER_01 16:42

Or some kind of nut. Some kind of nut. Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_00 16:48

As they progress deeper into the cave, they find a bunch of Civil War memorabilia.

SPEAKER_01 16:54

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 16:54

Because it turns out the colonel was a big collector of that stuff. Oh, I did wasn't it a lot of Confederate uniforms too?

SPEAKER_01 17:07

I think so.

SPEAKER_00 17:08

When one of the Confederate uniforms p comes out of the pile and is kind of just floating there.

SPEAKER_01 17:14

He's flapping its wings.

SPEAKER_00 17:16

Yep. Chases them around. They get cornered in an elevator.

SPEAKER_01 17:21

Uh oh.

SPEAKER_00 17:21

When Scooby starts growling. And it turns out to be a bird.

SPEAKER_01 17:27

So Scooby versus an animal.

SPEAKER_00 17:30

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 17:30

And he wins.

SPEAKER_00 17:31

Take a drink. And be proud of our favorite loving dog.

SPEAKER_01 17:38

Be very proud. He just took care of it for us. Oh man. Maybe the maybe the faces he made scared him. He made a bunch of weird faces to his face. And noises. And noises. That probably confused the duck. He doesn't know what's going on. Thought it was a dog. What is it now?

SPEAKER_00 17:55

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 17:55

I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 17:57

They take the elevator up and it comes out in Cousin Slicker's room.

SPEAKER_01 18:02

Oh, the secret passageway tokens, huh?

SPEAKER_00 18:06

But Cousin Slicker is gone.

SPEAKER_01 18:07

What?

SPEAKER_00 18:08

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 18:09

How'd that happen? Well, don't hack up along as we're well, you know, doing the podcast here.

SPEAKER_00 18:18

Sorry.

SPEAKER_01 18:18

We don't want you to die on the podcast. Time of death.

SPEAKER_00 18:23

Yeah. You know. Basically, it's then discovered that everyone is missing. Cousin Slicker, Cousin Slimple, Nephew Norble, and sweet cousin Meldehyde.

SPEAKER_01 18:40

That's four of them.

SPEAKER_00 18:41

All that's left is Scooby-Doo.

SPEAKER_01 18:43

Oh no, not Scooby.

SPEAKER_00 18:46

And Shaggy comments how you know all that's missing is a spooky organ. And then we hear spooky organ music.

SPEAKER_01 18:55

It's not missing anymore. Nope.

SPEAKER_00 18:58

They follow the music. They find an organ and some sheet music. Right. In which the sheet music says feed the piano and watch the floor.

SPEAKER_01 19:09

That's oddly specific.

SPEAKER_00 19:11

If anyone's gonna be fed around there, it's gonna be shaggy.

SPEAKER_01 19:14

And Scooby.

SPEAKER_00 19:15

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 19:16

They both gotta be fed.

SPEAKER_00 19:17

And you can't feed a piano. No. But you can play one.

SPEAKER_01 19:20

Right. Which entitles Scooby to go run off and get all dressed up.

SPEAKER_00 19:25

Scooby goes, gets dressed up to play the organ. Yep. You know, everyone else is watching the floor. When the walls start closing in on them like Death Star Trash Compactor. You shouldn't watch the floor, you need to watch the walls. Yeah. You know. Scooby hides in the piano bench when he's told to keep playing. Maybe it'll stop the walls.

SPEAKER_01 19:48

I mean, that makes sense.

SPEAKER_00 19:50

And eventually Scooby keeps playing and they do eventually stop.

SPEAKER_01 19:54

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 19:55

Daphne remarks that she's not in the mood for musical riddles. And that's when Velma decides to use her brain and realize that it's not feed the piano, it's the musical notes F, E, E, and D.

SPEAKER_01 20:14

Hmm, that makes sense.

SPEAKER_00 20:16

That playing those in that order opens up a trapdoor in the floor.

SPEAKER_01 20:22

Huh.

SPEAKER_00 20:22

They go down into the secret room.

SPEAKER_01 20:26

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 20:27

And they find five coffins. Five by the four of them are closed with one smaller one.

SPEAKER_01 20:35

Uh-oh.

SPEAKER_00 20:36

That's dog-shaped size.

SPEAKER_01 20:37

Drog raped.

SPEAKER_00 20:39

Yep. That one's open.

SPEAKER_01 20:40

It's open. What does that mean? Means he's not in it.

SPEAKER_00 20:44

And then the other coffin's open. And it's full of the relatives.

SPEAKER_01 20:49

Oh no.

SPEAKER_00 20:51

You know, they hear some cackling and chain rattling. And it's the Phantom Shadow.

SPEAKER_01 20:56

Not the Phantom Shadow.

SPEAKER_00 20:58

Who is a green ghost?

SPEAKER_01 20:59

Oh, why did they pick green?

SPEAKER_00 21:01

And there's two of them.

SPEAKER_01 21:02

Two of them?

SPEAKER_00 21:03

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 21:04

Oh, I thought one was bad. No, we got two of them to deal with.

SPEAKER_00 21:07

Well, Scooby faints from the fear.

SPEAKER_01 21:10

Of course.

SPEAKER_00 21:11

You know, and they pick up Scooby and run off, but he gets smacked on the edge of a door. And Shagyi tries bribing him with a Scooby snack to wake him up.

SPEAKER_01 21:22

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 21:23

Scooby then picks him up by his tail and runs off when Scooby gets up. You know. They then run around trying to avoid the ghosts. They hide up in a chandelier.

SPEAKER_01 21:39

Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_00 21:40

Where the one ghost doesn't get them, but the other one opens the panel in the ceiling and cuts the chandelier down. Where they fall into a wine cellar.

SPEAKER_01 21:50

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 21:51

Where Shaggy says, you know, they'll use the wine rack to shoot corks out at the Phantom Shadow, but not to do So until you see the green of their eyes.

SPEAKER_01 22:02

Right. Yep.

SPEAKER_00 22:04

At the same time, one of them is chasing Fred and the girls who run past the phone that's ringing. Velma answers it and then gives it to the ghost.

SPEAKER_01 22:15

The ghost looks very confused as he doesn't know what's going on. And then he hangs up. Whoever called, we're sorry they didn't reach you. Sorry, he hung up on you.

SPEAKER_00 22:23

Yeah. We cut back to Shaggy and Scooby, who are now on a tandem bicycle.

SPEAKER_01 22:28

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 22:29

That is built for four people.

SPEAKER_01 22:31

Four people.

SPEAKER_00 22:32

With the other two spots being taken up by the two ghosts.

SPEAKER_01 22:36

Wait, the ghosts know how to pedal a bike with their dirty feet? Yeah. So they do have dirty feet then. I guess so. I guess so. How else would they be able to do that?

SPEAKER_00 22:46

Um Shaggy and Scooby then dress up in some fancy dance getup stuff. Shaggy's got like a fancy dress shirt on and Scooby's in a like a pilgrim outfit? Yeah, like a pink pilgrim dress.

SPEAKER_01 23:02

How did we maybe that's what he had?

SPEAKER_00 23:05

Yep. You know, they put on a record to basically dance with the ghosts. Yep.

SPEAKER_01 23:08

Swing your partner.

SPEAKER_00 23:10

Yep. Shaggy puts in the musical code for the organ. Yep. And they drop the ghosts down the door.

SPEAKER_01 23:18

Pretty elaborate. Pretty elaborate there.

SPEAKER_00 23:20

They meet up with the girls, and you know, they remark how Shaggy has green stuff on his hands.

SPEAKER_01 23:29

How'd that happen?

SPEAKER_00 23:30

Well, he's an expert gardener. When you're a novice gardener, you'll have the green thumb. When you're an expert, you've got green hands.

SPEAKER_01 23:43

Well, at least his feet aren't green because then he would consider dirty.

SPEAKER_00 23:47

Yeah. No, he got it from Dancing with the Green Ghosts.

SPEAKER_01 23:53

Oh, okay. That makes a little more sense.

SPEAKER_00 23:55

That gives Fred an idea for a trap. Ooh, a trap. Pretty much. Out, you know, on the inside of a door.

SPEAKER_01 24:03

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 24:04

They suds up the walkway to a spring-loaded ironing board.

SPEAKER_01 24:09

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 24:09

That when the ghosts step through the door, they flip on a fan, they'll slide on the suds onto the ironing board, which will spring them into a wash machine.

SPEAKER_01 24:20

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 24:20

That I mean hopefully it works. They test it with Scooby.

SPEAKER_01 24:24

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 24:25

And it works without a pitch.

SPEAKER_01 24:27

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 24:29

And now this is where it goes off the rails.

SPEAKER_01 24:33

Pretty much.

SPEAKER_00 24:34

Because. Let's take. Who do you think is the bait for this episode?

SPEAKER_01 24:41

I mean, I was thinking it was gonna be Scooby and Shaggy, but apparently I'm wrong.

SPEAKER_00 24:46

It's the Hey no, it's Fred and the girls who are the bait for this episode.

SPEAKER_01 24:50

Why would you let Shaggy and Scooby handle the equipment? Is he an expert equipment handler?

SPEAKER_00 24:59

We'll never know.

SPEAKER_01 25:01

We'll never know.

SPEAKER_00 25:02

Because, you know, you know, Fred says that he and the girls were lure the ghosts in.

SPEAKER_01 25:08

Right.

SPEAKER_00 25:09

But right now it makes sense for it to be Scooby because the ghosts are after Scooby.

SPEAKER_01 25:14

Right, yeah. Why wouldn't it have been Scooby?

SPEAKER_00 25:16

But they put Scooby in charge of the fan.

SPEAKER_01 25:18

Which wasn't a good idea.

SPEAKER_00 25:20

That when Daphne remarks, here they come now, after Scooby was told when he hears now to turn everything on, he turns it on.

SPEAKER_01 25:30

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 25:30

But in reverse.

SPEAKER_01 25:32

So you're telling me he took a page out of Daphne's.

SPEAKER_00 25:36

Yep. And so he basically the fan he's by sucks the washing machine and springboard to him that turns it into a flying washing machine.

unknown 25:51

A flying washing.

SPEAKER_01 25:53

Oh man, you just can't make this stuff up.

SPEAKER_00 25:56

We then end up chasing after the ghosts who take an elevator to flee into the secret tunnel. Yep. So they go out the window. Shaggy comments that he can't steer it, but manages to steer it into said tunnel.

SPEAKER_01 26:10

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 26:12

Chasing the ghost back into the elevator. Or you know, they go up. You know, they go back up. Ghosts are then sliding down a railing. Shaggy and Scooby go past the railing at the bottom of it, and they catch the ghosts, and they're all washed up. Ooh, they're all washed up. Alright. Yep. You know, we then find out that the ghosts are Mr. Creeps and Mr. Crawls, the lawyers. Oh boy, that's you know, when which the plan was they scare off everybody from the island so they could keep the money. Well, because Scooby's the only one left, Scooby inherits one million dollars.

SPEAKER_01 26:58

Ooh, they're rich.

SPEAKER_00 27:00

In Confederate money.

SPEAKER_01 27:02

What?

SPEAKER_00 27:04

Making that useless.

SPEAKER_01 27:07

Oh man. So we spent the night in a house that wasn't even haunted, and we don't even get the money.

SPEAKER_00 27:14

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 27:15

Oh man.

SPEAKER_00 27:16

Well, we then see a flying bone that does not scare Scooby. No, that's good. Who then proceeds to eat it.

SPEAKER_01 27:22

That's one thing that we can do.

SPEAKER_00 27:23

And then we end the episode.

SPEAKER_01 27:25

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 27:27

And yeah, it's it's very interesting that it's Confederate money at the end.

SPEAKER_01 27:38

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 27:40

Because now I've got a couple of questions.

SPEAKER_01 27:44

Okay. You know?

SPEAKER_00 27:44

Is this, you know, with the Civil War memorabilia.

SPEAKER_01 27:48

Right.

SPEAKER_00 27:48

And the fact that the million dollars is all in Confederate money.

SPEAKER_01 27:52

Right.

SPEAKER_00 27:53

You know. Is Coolesville in like a southern state?

SPEAKER_01 28:01

It might be.

SPEAKER_00 28:02

You know. I know there have been many depictions of where it's like either in like Ohio or California. I almost wonder, could you actually be in Florida?

SPEAKER_01 28:14

They could be. In fact, they're on the water.

SPEAKER_00 28:17

They're on the water, like you know.

SPEAKER_01 28:19

It's like a body of water.

SPEAKER_00 28:22

There's a lot of Confederate stuff going on in Scooby too.

SPEAKER_01 28:26

Right.

SPEAKER_00 28:26

You know, yeah. This episode, you know, this Confederate stuff with this episode, Shaygy's Confederate uncle in Scooby-Doo meets the Boo Brothers. Right. On top of it's like, you know, and the fact that the Confederate money being worthless is just something that kind of ages so well because you know, it is, you know, I did look it up. Like, okay, what is Confederate what would Confederate money be worth these days? And it's like a lot of it's dependent upon year it was printed.

SPEAKER_01 29:01

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 29:02

And how good of a condition it's in.

SPEAKER_01 29:04

Right.

SPEAKER_00 29:05

And essentially it's really only worth like what a collector would pay for it.

SPEAKER_01 29:08

So it's in the eye of the beholder, basically.

SPEAKER_00 29:11

Pretty much. Because it's because where the Amer where the US dollar you know is essentially backed by gold. Right. When the Confederates started printing their own currency, they didn't have it backed by anything. It was more or less like a prom, you know, we promise we will pay you back when we win the war.

SPEAKER_01 29:36

Right, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 29:38

Which, as we all know, they didn't.

SPEAKER_01 29:40

Yeah. Mm-hmm. Yep.

SPEAKER_00 29:43

So yeah, it's very interesting that, you know, million dollars in Confederate money, it's like That isn't really Basically, it's like a million dollars in Monopoly money.

SPEAKER_01 29:54

Yay, monopoly money. Yay.

SPEAKER_00 29:58

You know, I think I'll do that when I die.

SPEAKER_01 30:01

Make it all in Monopoly money.

SPEAKER_00 30:02

I'll have a I'll write up a will where these people have to spend a night in a haunted house for one million dollars. That'll turn out to be monopoly money.

SPEAKER_01 30:12

There you go. We need to find like Scooby-Doo Monopoly money. That would be perfect. We need to look to see if there's an actual Scooby-Doo Monopoly game.

SPEAKER_00 30:21

There is a Scooby-Doo Monopoly game.

SPEAKER_01 30:24

Oh, there is.

SPEAKER_00 30:25

Yes, I almost got that for my dad one year for either his birthday or Father's Day. I ended up going with Scooby-Doo Clue.

SPEAKER_01 30:33

Ah, you should have gone for Monopoly.

SPEAKER_00 30:35

Clue's more fun.

SPEAKER_01 30:36

Oh, okay.

unknown 30:37

Alright.

SPEAKER_00 30:38

And I think Clue fits the Scooby-Doo aesthetic a little bit better.

SPEAKER_01 30:41

Okay. Trust you on this one.

SPEAKER_00 30:45

But now we get to the fun responsibilities.

SPEAKER_01 30:47

Yay, the fun responsibilities. Yay.

SPEAKER_00 30:50

So the Scooby Snack intake.

SPEAKER_01 30:53

We have it this time, guys. Yes, I remembered it this week. We remembered it this week. Alright.

SPEAKER_00 30:58

Which is helpful because we actually had a Scooby Snack this week.

SPEAKER_01 31:01

Yeah, it is helpful, so it does make sense.

SPEAKER_00 31:03

So we are now at 142 Scooby Snacks. Yay. One shaggy snack. Yep. And one hero sandwich. Woo-hoo. Which brings it to approximately eight, almost nine Scooby Snacks per episode. Wow, that's crazy. Which is still more than the six that they had for.

SPEAKER_01 31:30

Right, that was weird. Unless it was just for that specific the four or something, but then it's like six per episode. I don't know where they get Yeah. Because it was on that tape.

SPEAKER_00 31:42

Unless they didn't count the full boxes. I'll redo the math when we get to the end of the series. See what it's looking like. But that is one fun thing done. Yep. On to the next one, guys. Yes. So now we will go to the Scooby Zone Manifest of Monsters.

SPEAKER_01 33:38

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 33:39

Phantom Shadows got four relatives off-screen. That is true. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Okay. I I see your reasoning. Okay. And we don't know how the colonel how Colonel Boregard died. For all we know, they could have had a hand in that.

SPEAKER_01 33:52

They could have, because they wanted the Confederate money, even though it wasn't worth anything. Because somehow they Yeah, I I wow, someone beat the ghosts of Elias Kingston?

SPEAKER_00 34:03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 34:04

That's some wow, I wasn't thinking that was gonna happen, but you know, I mean, I guess.

SPEAKER_00 34:18

I mean, I had a feeling that they were just because of what this episode's all tied to.

SPEAKER_01 34:23

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 35:44

As a money pit.

SPEAKER_00 35:46

So, where would you put flying washing machine?

SPEAKER_01 35:50

I mean, it actually is a even though there is a lot of shenanigans with it, it's actually a really good trap, believe it or not. I mean, I actually think it's it almost goes like on with a better mousetrap. Like it's almost I think it's actually I think it's better than a better mousetrap. Like it's right under a I think it's right above a better mousetrap. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 36:11

Yeah. No, is it better than the money pit?

SPEAKER_01 36:14

I don't think it's better.

SPEAKER_00 36:15

I mean No, because it's that they were able to ungoof Scooby.

SPEAKER_01 36:18

Right. So yeah, but yep. So I thought it'd be better than a better mousetrap.

unknown 36:28

Wow.

SPEAKER_01 36:29

Uh-huh. Something beat out a better mousetrap? Yeah. That's unbelievable.

SPEAKER_00 36:33

Well, I mean, the money pit beat it out too.

SPEAKER_01 36:36

Well, right, but I mean, you know. But still. Yeah. Something beat it out a bit.

SPEAKER_00 36:40

Good showing this week.

SPEAKER_01 36:41

Yeah, definitely.

SPEAKER_00 36:43

Now all that's left is how many snacks does this one bring to the table of snacks.

SPEAKER_01 36:47

Oh, I mean, this was like a really good, like I mean, I didn't want like this was one I didn't really watch that much, but it's like a really classic episode.

SPEAKER_00 36:56

Like it's actually like a decent one. And oh, this, you know, is only tangential to it.

SPEAKER_01 37:05

Right.

SPEAKER_00 37:05

But the fact that, you know, this was the episode that they used for supernatural.

SPEAKER_01 37:14

Yep.

SPEAKER_00 37:16

So it's like I don't want to say like that bumps it up like a full you know placement.

SPEAKER_01 37:24

Right.

SPEAKER_00 37:25

But like so, even but even taking that out of consideration, right? You know, I still think that this is a five episode.

SPEAKER_01 37:34

I think so too. I definitely would agree.

SPEAKER_00 37:36

So hey, we've got another five.

SPEAKER_01 37:37

Another five. That's three of them.

SPEAKER_00 37:39

Yeah, and we had two within two weeks of pretty much, apparently. Yeah. All right. Alright. I think that just about wraps up today, you know, this week's episode of Scooby-Doo. I think so too. And so we will be back next week with a special treat for you all.

SPEAKER_01 38:00

Definitely a special treat.

SPEAKER_00 38:01

Where instead of watching an episode of Scooby-Doo Where Are You, we will be watching season 13, episode 16 of Supernatural titled Scooby Natural.

SPEAKER_01 38:18

Yep. So excited for this one, guys. It's gonna be a good one.

SPEAKER_00 38:23

Yep. So we will be back then. And just remember, they would have gotten away with it too. If it weren't for those meddling kids.
