Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! (1969) s01e06 Episode Script
What the Hex is Going On?
Come.
Come.
Come.
Come.
Well, we're almost to the Wetherby estate, gang.
It sure is nice of Sharon to ask us up here for the weekend.
There's so many groovy things to do.
Yeah, like swimming and eating, and tennis and eating, and riding and eating and eating and- How do you like that? Hey, look up there.
Jeepers, someone's going into that old mansion.
Like, wow.
Who'd do a kooky thing like that? I don't know.
Gee, it's sure good to see all of you.
But I hope this wasn't the wrong weekend for you to come.
- Why's that, Sharon? - Well, the last few nights we've been hearing a lot of strange noises.
And now it looks like my Uncle Stuart has vanished.
Could it have been him we saw going into that old mansion? You mean the Kingston mansion? Maybe we'd better go up there and see.
Uncle Stuart? Uncle Stuart? Like, you know, there's no sign of him anywhere.
Look, someone's in the shadows.
Uncle Stuart.
He's become an old man.
What happened, Stuart? It started when a ghostly voice called out from the old mansion.
I had to obey it.
It drew me out of the house.
I was in a trance.
I went past the Kingston mausoleum and finally into the old mansion.
And there is where I saw the ghost of Elias Kingston.
The Wetherby fortune belongs to me.
Unless it is returned to this mansion before morning the entire family shall suffer this terrible fate.
That's when he made me an old man, as a warning to you all.
What are we going to do? First of all, I'm going to call the sheriff.
That's strange.
The phone's dead.
Why don't you go get the sheriff, Mr.
Wetherby.
We'll wait here.
We'll keep an eye on Stuart until you get back.
- You sure you'll be all right? - Sure.
And just to make sure nothing else happens we'll all take turns standing guard.
Who's gonna stand the first watch? Who else? The watchdog.
Right.
The watchdog.
- That's me? - That's right.
That's you.
Just think, Scooby, no ghostly voice will get past your keen sense of hearing.
That old hard-of-hearing trick isn't gonna work tonight, Scooby.
Come.
Come.
Where'd he go? Hey, what's with the bugle call, Scooby? It looks like Uncle Stuart's gone again.
He's not the only one.
Sharon's gone too.
- But, like, where? - We'd better get up to that old mansion.
And fast.
I don't see any sign of Sharon, Uncle Stuart or the ghost.
Like, maybe we're in luck and he's out haunting another house.
Say, what have you got on your feet, roller skates? - Why are you wearing those things? - I'm not taking any chances.
If we do see that ghost, he'll never catch me.
Come on, let's keep looking.
I wonder if ghosts can hide in little pots.
I guess not.
Scooby-Doo! Oh, boy, oh, boy.
How soggy can a guy get? If there's one thing I can't stand, it's taking a bath in a haunted house.
Whether you know it or not, Scooby, you found our first clue.
I did? Sure.
Who ever heard of a ghost needing a watchdog to scare anybody away? Like, you mean there isn't any ghosts? Well, I haven't seen any.
Yet.
And we haven't seen Sharon or her uncle either.
Hey, was Uncle Stuart wearing a blue suit, red tie and tennis shoes? Yeah, when we last saw him.
Then I think we found him.
Only he looks a little older now.
I guess that ghost wasn't kidding.
That's just about as old as you can get.
It sure would help if we could find another clue.
I found one.
- Groovy.
What is it? - Him.
It's the ghost! Ghost? This is the last warning.
Either the fortune is here by morning or all those in the Wetherby house shall grow old.
Now go.
Old Horrible really said a frightful mouthful.
- But we're not gonna let that scare us.
- We're not? No, Shaggy.
We're gonna solve this mystery.
Hey, where's Scooby? I bet he's in that closet.
"Out to lunch.
" Can you imagine? Yeah, with Scooby, I wouldn't be surprised.
How do you like that? He didn't even invite me.
Hey, that was the ghost.
Yeah, he went into the mausoleum.
Come on, let's see what he's up to.
Okay, Shaggy.
Use Velma's fingerprinting kit and dust for prints.
Right, Freddy.
I'll give it the old Sherlock Holmes touch.
Like, wow.
Look at all them fingerprints.
Not my hand, silly.
That door.
Freddy, we got something.
Just as I thought.
Fingerprints.
Wait a minute.
Ghosts wouldn't leave fingerprints.
- Like, maybe he can turn into a bat.
- Don't be silly.
Okay, Scooby, go in there and sniff around for that ghost.
Would you do it for a Scooby Snack? I'll give you one.
How about two? Three.
Four? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'll go.
Scooby-Dooby-Doo! Like, there's times I'll do anything for a Scooby Snack.
It's okay.
Come on in.
- There's no ghost in here.
- Well, we know he came in.
There's something on that table.
This might be a clue.
A book on crystalomacy.
Crystal O'Macy? I used to know a Crystal Nerdlinger.
It's not a girl, silly.
It's a book about how to use a crystal ball.
- You mean the kind a fortuneteller uses? - Right.
Say, there's an old swami place in town.
Maybe there's some kind of a connection.
Zoinks, the door! Hey, we're locked in.
Well, let's hope there's a secret way out of here.
Start tapping on the walls.
Hey.
Like, what happened to Scooby? He was right there a second ago.
It's a secret passage.
You did it, Scooby.
You found the way out.
I did? Well, Scooby-Dooby-Doo! That secret passage was a shortcut to the Wetherby estate.
I wonder if it has to do with Sharon's disappearance.
I don't know.
But maybe we'll find the answer here at the swami's place.
It looks like the swami's out swami-ing somewhere else.
I guess he won't mind if we take a look around.
I wonder what's in here.
Daphne, not the storage closet.
Well, Daphne, you did it again.
Like, someone's coming.
Yoo-hoo.
Swami.
Oh, Swami.
Oh, there you are.
- Oh, no.
A customer.
- And she thinks Scooby's the swami.
Shaggy, you better throw your voice and make Scooby sound like a swami.
- Yeah, I better.
- Mr.
Swami, I have something to ask you.
Good evening.
Please be seated.
Oh, swami, tell me, what do you see in the crystal ball? - My reflection.
- Your reflection? My word.
No, wait.
I see a tall, handsome man in your future.
And you're dancing together cheek to cheek.
Now he's whispering something to you.
- He is? What is the dear boy saying? - "Get off my foot.
" Enough of this.
I want my palm read.
Yes, ma'am.
You did say "red.
" How dare you! How about that? All that advice and she didn't even pay us a dime.
I hope that's the end of the customers for a while.
Okay, gang.
Let's get on with our investigation.
Hey, look.
The table's floating.
Zoinks! It's the gooney ghost! You did not do as I said.
Now you shall pay.
Hey, look out! Duck! It's after us! Here it comes again.
I've heard of flying saucers, but this is silly.
Run.
Run.
Run.
We got rid of it.
We did? Then, like, what's that? - He's a real joker.
- I'm not laughing.
Duck! Look out, Scooby! Scooby caught the table.
Man, this flew like it was jet-propelled.
You mean like fan-propelled.
See? A fan-type motor underneath gave it the power.
Are you okay, Scooby? I'm okay.
Hey, look, suitcases.
Maybe somebody just moved in.
Then let's move out.
And look what I found: A professional makeup kit.
And what's that? It looks like a TV camera.
You're right, Shaggy.
Yeah.
It's a miniature TV camera.
Hey, smile, Scooby.
That's how the ghost got on the crystal ball: Closed-circuit TV.
See, Scooby? That's how you look on TV.
What a ham.
Well, we got a lot of clues.
- We do? - She's right.
Enough clues to turn the tables on that ghost.
Now, here's what we're gonna do.
Yoo-hoo, Mr.
Ghost! I'm here with the fortune.
Yoo-hoo! Yoo-hoo! Good.
You brought the fortune.
How fortunate for you.
Stay until I see with my own eyes.
It's a trick.
I'll turn you to bones! The plan's working, Scooby.
- You can't get away! - Quick, get behind the curtain.
Scooby, I hope the ghost doesn't find us.
Perfecto.
I got my shoes, now let's join the gang.
I can hear the ghost coming.
Get ready for phase two.
- All set, Shaggy? - Yeah.
Let's go.
- He's in the hall.
- Turn on the projector.
Stop, or I'll mummify you! Wait.
Hold it.
This place is really haunted.
Now watch what he does when he sees the tape of you, Scooby.
Oh, no! That does it.
It's working, Sharon.
He's going into the secret room, where he had me tied up.
Well, Miss Sharon, I still have you, and the fortune shall yet be mine- How did that get here? Let me out of here.
Here he comes.
Golly, he's running like a ghost was after him.
- Now.
Throw it! - Bombs away! I guess that about wraps up the ghost story.
Scooby-Dooby-Doo! Mr.
Wetherby, this ghost really doesn't need any introduction.
As soon as we clean him up I'm sure you'll recognize him.
There.
Look familiar? - Uncle Stuart.
- Like, in person.
He thought he could scare you into giving up the family fortune.
That ghostly wailing was only a recording.
And by a clever use of makeup, he made himself look old.
When I came downstairs to investigate a noise, I saw Uncle Stuart's wig blow off.
- I knew he wasn't old.
- So he had to take you prisoner.
But where does the swami come in? What better way for a swindler to disappear? Uncle Stuart, why did you do it? Well, I guess he can explain it to the sheriff when he gets here.
- I bet you kids are starving.
- Groovy.
Zoinks, that's for me.
Hey, what's this? "Scooby-Doo was here.
" The whole turkey? Gone? Scooby-Dooby-Doo!
Come.
Come.
Come.
Well, we're almost to the Wetherby estate, gang.
