Theme Park Mayhem

## Summary

When the Clue Kids head for a new amusement park they discover that a ghost called the Phantom of Thrill World has been terrorizing it

## Script

(We open on day time at an amusement park, some teens get on a parasol ride and they get locked in)

Teen 1:I...Don't feel so good. Maybe I should just pass on this ride.

Teen 2:Don't be so scared. Relax and enjoy it.

(They set sail and have a blast and the second teen yells out)

Teen 2:Yeah!

(The first teen looks back we then cut to the ride going fine until a masked figure on a jet ski comes and cuts the rope we cut to the teens who act scared now we cut to the figure and it comes at the camera and as we go to it we cut to black we then cut to the gang at their headquarters relaxing and Frank reads the paper as Scraggy and Ruffy are eating some hamburgers)

Scraggy:Like man I've had this burger in my mouth all day man.

Ruffy:But you just put it in.

Scraggy:Like it's a figure of speech Ruff.

Ruffy:Oh. Sorry.

(The letter carrier comes)

Letter Carrier:Telegram for the Clue Kids.

(Veronica takes it and opens it)

Veronica:Jinkies it's from the new theme park, Thrill World.

Scraggy:Like wow! Thrill World?! We can like check out what kind of food they have Ruff!

Ruffy:Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.

Frank:What's it say?

Veronica:Dear Clue Kids, please help. A figure haunts the amusement park Thrill World. Nighttime, daytime, whenever the customers come they leave because of this figure and it is ruining my business. Folks call it the Phantom of Thrill World. Signed the owner of Thrill World.

Scraggy:Like ya know Ruff, suddenly I'm not so hungry anymore.

Ruffy:Me either.

Frank:Nonsense you guys. We've got a mystery to solve.

(Ruffy gulped and nodded at Scraggy as he knows this isn't going to be fun we fade to the gang arriving at the park, the barker wants the gang to leave)

Barker:You kids mustn't go in. It's best to not go in under any circumstances.

Frank:But we were called in by the owner.

Barker:Ok then. Enter, there's thrills and chills for everybody.

(They walk in)

Veronica:(To the gang)Gang, I think we found our first suspect.

Dally:The barker?

Veronica:Yeah he wanted us to leave.

Scraggy:Like he's not the only one.

(They then meet a young man)

Ticket Taker:Hi. Can I see your tickets?

Frank:Oh uh sorry we're here to solve a mystery not to ride rides.

Ticket Taker:Ya still gotta have a ticket.

Veronica:Pardon me for asking but what does this Phantom of Thrill World look like?

Ticket Taker:He's been seen in a tuxedo, red cloak with the hood on his head white gloves and a white mask and he's been scaring people away.

Dally:That's what we're here to do.

Scraggy:Like let's shooby down to the food court Ruff.

Ruffy-Ruff:Yeah, food.

(We fade to them exiting the food court stacks of snacks)

Scraggy:Pretzels, peanuts, popcorn, oranges, sandwiches, hot dogs, cotton candy, pizza, nachos, onion rings, chocolate malts, bananas, corndogs, fires, ice cream, burgers and soda pop.

Ruffy-Ruff:And triple guacamole dip.

(They eat their food we fade to the gang at a sky diving ride)

Frank:This'll be good.

Dally:Doesn't it seem strange that we're the only ones beside that woman writing down stuff on that note pad ?

Frank:And that little boy up in front who's showing a tantrum.

Veronica:Yeah. It's probably because of the Phantom of Thrill Park.

Frank:Maybe.

Eddie:What do you mean I can't ride this stupid ride?!

Ticket Taker:Sorry little dude I don't make the rules.

(Eddie marches off in a huff)

Frank:Uh, can *we* ride the ride?

Ticket Taker:Sorry, it's under construction?

Dally:The Phantom of Thrill Park?

Ticket Taker:Yeah.

Frank:We'll investigate it. Come on girls.

(They go in and finds a clue)

Veronica:Jinkies, this cloth might be a clue.

(The Phantom pulls the switch and the fan starts)

Frank:What the?

Dally:The fan's opening!

Veronica:We've got to cut the fan!

Frank:But how?!

(Dally takes a sky diving belt and throws it at the fan stopping it)

Frank:Phew.

(They fall and yell and land)

Frank:That was close Dal.

Dally:Yeah.

(Veronica's glasses become crooked and a woman comes in and opens the door)

Tay:What happened? Are you kids alright?

Frank:Barely. The ride broke down only because it was on construction.

(Cuts to Tay)

Tay:Oh I can't believe it happened again.

(Cuts to Veronica)

Veronica:Again?

(Cuts to outside the sky diving ride, everyone is there and Tay puts a conviction notice on it)

Tay:First it was the parasail, then the helium custard balloon flied, now this.

Frank:Ma'am?

Tay:Sorry, call me Tay. I'm the safety engineer, the rides are broke I shut them down until their fixed.

Veronica:And that's been happening a lot lately?

Tay:Yeah, ever since that phantom of the opera ghost started showing up.

Dally:I thought it was the Phantom of Thrill Park?

(They walk to the controls)

Tay:It's what folks call him. But I never seen him myself.

(Puts another sign up on the glass)

Veronica:(Examins the cloth on the lever)Whatever did this wasn't a ghost.

Tay:I just don't understand it. Why is it targeting all the good stuff? Parasailing, cluster ballooning skydiving? What's wrong with that?

Dally:Because skydiving is fun! (About the falling part)Until you hit the floor.

Tay:That's the problem. The only thing worser then a broken down ride is a haunted broken down ride. Oh I used to love seeing the kids play the Xtreme Skate Rink.

Frank:Well then. We've got to look for some clues.

(They leave)

Tay:Enjoy it while you can, because every ride may be your last.

(She says that in a suspicious manner causing the gang to look back at her in suspicion we fade to Scraggy and Ruffy eating snacks)

Ruffy:Mmmm, ice cream. Popcorn, peanuts, cotton candy. Good.

Scraggy:Like you said it Ruff.

Ruffy:Yeah, I don't care about my blood sugar.

Scraggy:Like I don't care about my blood sugar either man.
