## Transcript

(We open on the gang wrapping up another case with a man in a hairy man suit being taken away by the authorities)

Man:I would have made millions selling the pearls in the woods if it hadn't been for you meddling kids and that mutt of yours!

(They cheer and stuff Rubble has the monster mask in his mouth they all high five each other and Danny and Rubble belly bump each other cuts to Ace)

Ace:Another mystery bites the dust!

(Ryder gives a thumbs up and says)

Ryder:Wayta go gang!

(Cuts to Katie)

Katie:Let's celebrate!

(They walk to their van)

Rubble:Yeah. Celebrate. I could sure go for a caramel butterscotch malt at the malt shop.

Danny:Like me too bud and a triple cheese burger with a large side of fries.

Ranger:Let's head to the malt shop and get some lunch.

(Police car drives in front blocking their way to the Mystery Patroller and the Sheriff steps out)

Sheriff:Better idea. Get'in the car.

Ryder:Oh come on Sheriff.

(They are mad about this)

Sheriff:Just cork it. You see this badge? Know why it's here?

Ace:It came with the shirt?

Sheriff:It's here because if there's a crime I solve it.

(Opens the door they gather in the back)

Ranger:Wait what about the Mystery Patroller?

Sheriff:Don't worry I'll send it back to the Mystery Patrol HQ where it belongs. My associates will be the ones to take you home. I told you kids more then only once that mystery solving is a tough business. It's dangerous.

(Closes the door and goes to the van the police car drives away)

Katie:Just once it would be nice if someone would actually thank us for solving a mystery.

Ranger:Yeah we don't get paid to do it. We just want to.

Danny:Do it?

Ranger:Acutally I stopped my sentence at "want to".

Danny:Oh.

Ryder:Good thing we're not in this to be liked. (Rest of the gang give him irked looks)Maybe that didn't come out right.

(Danny still rubs Rubble on his head as they are upset as the car drives we blackout and open back to daytime in Adventure Bay the town is a busy town people walking and or driving to work)

Ace:Welcome to the Adventure Bay haunted tour I'm your ghoulish guide Ace. The first documented case of the curse of Adventure Bay is from 1630 where a group of Spanish conquistadors disappeared from the harbor.

Woman:Ohh that is so scary. (Excited)Where did they go?!

Ace:What part of the word "Mystery" Didn't you understand? The curse struck again in 1730 when a group of visionaries likewise disappeared. (Yawns and the people gasp) Anyway everything was pretty quiet until a hundred years later where Cletus Darrow found gold here and Grover Goodway renamed the town "Adventure Bay" most people thought the curse had been lifted until the whole Darrow family disappeared one Halloween and was never seen again. (Plays tape recorder and a woman's blood curdling scream can be heard they gasp about this) Moving on. (We fade to the hall of all the monsters from Adventure Bay's past)Since the disappearance of the Darrow family Adventure Bay has been a hub of paranormal activity. You may recognize some of our most famous visitors. (First at the Windy Ghost exhibit)Ghostly wind maker the Windy Ghost. (Cuts to the Shadow Phantom that resembles the one from Scooby-Doo but is a blueish white color for the cloak)Shadow Phantom. (Cuts to the Ghost of the old mining cabin with a lantern in on hand and the pickax in the other he has a bushy beard and plaid shirt and brown coveralls black boots with a brown hat covering his eyes)Ghost of Old Mining Cabin.

(Cuts to Chucky from Child's Play)Chucky The Killer Doll. And who could forget the terrifying stylings of...(Presents the Phantom Space Skull) Phantom Space Skull? Not me.

Man:Oh how frightening.

Woman:Absalutliy blood curdling.

Ace:Not really. They all turned out to be fakes.

(They are like what and huh and Ace then explains)

Ace:Yep. Windy Ghost: Was just a 14-year-old girl in middle school named Melissa Love who was apart of Sweetie's Team to get revenge on us. Shadow Phantom was just a lawyer trying to scare heirs out of a haunted mansion. Ghost of The Old Mining Cabin's real name was Hank. Blackfur was just a luminous puppet operated by a devious treasure thief. Chucky belonged to an old man who thought it would be easy to run an amusement park with a crazy robot. (Says that as she does a robot walk)Oh and Phantom Space Skull. Dont get me started.

(Her parents slap their hands in front of her mouth)

Mr. Sorensen:Thank you Ace! Well that concludes the terror-rific tour.

Mrs. Sorensen:Don't forget to stop at the haunted snack shop for souvenirs and your complamentory undead super cup.

(They are happy about it and go leaving Ace and her parents)

Mrs. Sorensen:What do you think you're doing?

Mr. Sorensen:Are you trying to destroy our business?

Ace:Reboot perennials I was just being honest.

Mr. Sorensen:Those were isolated incidents in Adventure Bay's unblemished and supernatural happenings.

Ace:Your generations belief not mine. My generation. We had only one thing on our minds.

(Cuts to the Ryder Brothers in their room Ryder puts his vest on)

Ryder:Solving mysteries and building traps.

Mr. Ryder:That's two things Ryder.

Ryder:You know what I mean dad. We just want answers. Is that wrong?

Mr. Ryder:Oh for crying out loud Ryder. The chief's sons are suppose to set an example.

Ranger:We're trying dad. In fact just yesterday we entered one of Zack's traps in the district science fair. It was rejected for not actually having anything to do with science but...

Mrs.Ryder:We just don't want you to make a mistake you'll regret.

Ryder:You mean like make a bad trap.

(They are angry about this)

Mr. Ryder:No! Life isn't all abbot traps there's only other things too!

Mrs. Ryder:Like...

Mr. Forrester:Honey we're only trying to find the best thing for you. Like grooming pets like you use to.

I'm sticking with mystery solving we had occasional help from the PJ Masks, Rusty Rivets, the Rainbooms better known as the Humane Seven and the Equestria Girls, Ruffy Ruff and the Clue Kids and Scooby-Doo and Mystery Incorporated.

Mrs. Forrester:Please Katie we only want what's best for you. Then that rude sheriff takes the chief of police's place I say the original chief should have won. He's suspicious to us.

Katie:Well like it or not. Solving mysteries is what we do.

Mr. Forrester:Well there was that attack on those swear workers.

Katie:Well I better be going to school.

(Grabs her bag and goes out)

Katie:Bye mom and dad. (Rubs Cali's head)Bye Cali.

(Runs out the door cuts to the gang driving on the road Danny is eating a candy bar while Rubble has his head out the window Ryder drives with Katie beside him)

Ranger:So Ace how come you didn't text me last night? I waited up for you.

Ace:(Pulls down newspaper)I did. You must have had it on mute.

Ranger:Oh yeah.

(The gang stop)

Ace:What happened?

Katie:There's a crime scene.

(They get out)

Ryder:What happened Sheriff?

Sheriff:Nothing for you kids to think about getting involved in.

Sheriff:Thanks kids.

(They get it and throw it in the back of the van)

(Cuts to the school cuts to inside where the professor is teaching)

Scooby and the gang spend the night and caught the Adventure Bay Inn Ghost, the Rainbooms stopped for a week and caught the monsters from Scooby-Doo Mystery Incorporated and Big Macintosh, Applejack's brother helped them out and so did Snails and of course even the Clue Kids caught the Ghost Pirate.
