Heather Lane (What's New, Scooby Doo?)

Heather Lane (Lauren Tom) is the hidden villainess of "3-D Struction", episode 1.02 of What's New, Scooby Doo? (airdate September 21, 2002).
She was an college student working as an tour guide at the Costa Rican Museum during a foreign exchange internship. Unbeknownst to the museum, however, she was secretly colluding with con artist Luis Cepeda to excavate gold found in the mines underneath the museum. While Heather dug the gold up using an Alpha digging crane from the museum, Luis stored the gold at an ancient ruins site along with fake dinosaur bones he planned to sell on the black market. To prevent people from finding the gold, the villainous pair used a local curse legend to scare people away. Daphne Blake had early suspicions about Heather due to the fact that she had expensive clothing, despite being a college student working for free.
Heather's villainous reveal came when Velma Dinkley gathered everyone in the museum cinema to present her discovered information. Among these was the fact that Heather disguised the Alpha crane machine as the dinosaur spirit (her being an art major). Realizing she was caught, Heather tried to make a run for it, but was restrained by Fred Jones and Melbourne O'Reilly, the archaeologist who brought the fake bones to the museum despite Luis's warnings about the "curse". Once Luis was exposed as Heather's accomplice, Heather was handcuffed and arrested along with Luis.
