A Pup Named Scooby-Doo

Like, this is the Coolsville Mall.

The mall has all.

With his new camera that he got, like, for his birthday,

Freddy wanted the gang and I to help him

make his first movie.

I Was a Teenage Mall Monster.

Starring a pup named Scooby-Doo.

That's me.

All right, get into your monster costume, Scooby, baby.

Okay, Freddy, baby.

Daphne, sweetheart,

Shaggy, baby cakes,

you both look "mahvellous."

Like, I think that camera's gone to Freddy's head.

No kidding.

Quiet on the set!

Lights!

Lights.

Camera!

Action!

Oh, Officer Rogers, we just have to stop the Grody Mall Monster.

Like, yeah.

Today it will eat the Coolsville Mall,

tomorrow the world.

Get serious.

He couldn't even eat one shoe store.

Cut! Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut!

That's not in the script.

I know, but who ever heard of a mall monster, anyway?

Daphne, according to the National Exaggerator,

Mall monsters are getting to be a big problem.

Oh, puh-lease.

Besides, this is your chance

to become a Hollywood movie star.

Ooh, like I was saying, I sure hate those mall monsters.

That's better.

Say, where is the monster?

Scooby-Doo,

where are you?

It's about time, Scooby.

Say, boffo costume.

Now, quit horsin' around and take your place.

Sorry, Freddy.

Zipper's stuck.

Zoinks.

If this is Scooby, then, like, who's that?

I don't know. Who?

Stinkweed, that's who.

Jinkies.

Whoa!

We'll see about that.

Uh-oh.

Jinkies.

Like, fast thinking, Velma.

He can't get us up here.

Yeah.

You saved us.

Bah, it's stuck.

This is my big chance to become a famous reporter.

I've gotta get this on video.

All right, buddy. You're under arrest.

That's what you say.

Yeah, that's what I say.

Now, put down those jewels or I'll...

Pee-yew!

No one can stand the smell of Stinkweed.

Like, this is terrible.

This is horrible.

This is great.

Hey, he's gone into the pet store.

Pee-yew.

Pee-yew.

Pee-yew.

This is just fine.

Scat.

Get away.

Like, he's gettin' away.

Come on, gang.

Maybe we can get the number of his getaway car.

Getaway car, Freddy?

Like, we'll never find him in here.

Zoinks!

Let's get out of here.

Like, good idea, Scoob.

Yeah, I'm afraid the monster's gotten away.

Yeah, I guess so.

Let's regroup

and then split up.

Hm.

This mystery looks like a job

for the Scooby-Doo Detective Agency.

So much for my movie.

Say, I know.

We can make a video movie about how we solve cases.

Good idea.

We interrupt A Pup Named Scooby-Doo

for this special announcement.

Freddy had a good idea. It's a miracle!

Thank you.

Yeah.

We could show it to people and everything.

Yeah.

Zoinks!

Look!

Like, Scoob found a clue.

"Grand opening tomorrow:

"Stinkweed 10: The Smell Continues.

Meet the star, Vincent Thorne."

Hey, he's the actor who plays Stinkweed.

Hm, sounds like a good time to look for clues.

So, like, the next day,

we returned to the scene of the crime.

There he is.

All right, Mr. Thorne.

You can't fool the Scooby-Doo Detective Agency.

Yeah.

We know it's you.

How could you be so despicable?

What a terrible thing to do,

dressing up like Stinkweed and stealing all that money.

Why, I oughta...

Daphne, that was terrific, stupendous, wild.

Uh, can you do it again?

I forgot to take off my lens cap.

Oh, brother.

Excuse me.

Uh, did you say you're a detective agency?

That's right, so watch your step, mister.

Yeah. Watch it.

Actually, I need your help.

You do?

Yes. Can I hire you?

Huh?

It's... It's not fair.

Just because I play Stinkweed in the movies,

everybody thinks I'm the thief robbing all the stores.

They do? Yeah.

Even the police think I did it.

But I swear, I didn't steal anything.

You didn't?

No, and you kids may be my only hope.

You have to help me.

You have to.

Okay. Okay.

Settle down.

We don't come cheap, you know.

Twenty-five cents a day, plus candy expenses.

I'll pay you $25 a day if you'll help me.

Twenty-five dollars?

I like it.

Great. Thumbs up. I give it a nine-plus.

The movie was quite, uh, interesting, Mr. Thorne.

Thank you.

Uh, I think.

Scat, puppy.

Oh, wow, it was great. Fantastic movie.

What an unmitigated piece of garbage.

That movie really stank, Thorne.

Oh, hello, Grady.

Kids, this is Grady Lawrence, a fellow actor.

Hello.

Grady follows me wherever I go,

just waiting for a chance to make me look bad

so he can take over my role.
