Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! (1969) s02e02 Episode Script

Mystery Mask Mix-Up

The mask of Zentuo must be returned to the temple.
Now go and do not return until you have the mask in your possession.
We hear and obey.
This Chinese New Year's parade sure is the greatest.
- And that's some dragon, huh, Shag? - I wouldn't know.
Like, I can't see a thing except Scoob's big paws.
Come on, Scooby, get off.
It's my turn to sit on your shoulders.
- Oh, no.
They're off balance.
- They're gonna fall.
It looks like this parade is getting dangerous.
Yeah.
Let's go look in a few of the curio shops.
I'll bet it'll be a lot safer.
Yeah.
Like, I'm for anything that's safer.
Perhaps you would be interested in this golden mask? No, thanks.
Clown faces are more my bag.
I think it's groovy.
I'll take it.
Looks like Daphne wants to scare up a couple of new boyfriends.
- Very funny.
- Come on, you clowns.
Let's eat.
- Food, my favorite hobby.
- Mine too.
- We have come for the golden mask.
- But I no longer have the mask.
- It was just purchased by a young girl.
- Then we will find her.
When we get to the restaurant the first thing I'm gonna order is a chop suey malt.
Me too.
Ghosts! - Who are you? - And what do you want? - We want the mask.
- With faces like that - you ought to have two masks.
- It belongs to me, and you can't have it.
- Then we will take it.
- Quick, Scooby, make like a watchdog.
Hey, like, look.
Scoob borrowed a shirt presser from a Chinese laundry.
- He's making a steam smoke screen.
- Come on, let's get out of here.
And that's why we came to you.
Being the only Oriental art dealer in town we figured you might know what's behind the mystery of this mask.
You are right.
I do know the mystery.
The golden mask was stolen many centuries ago from the crypt of the great warlord Zentuo.
Now his ghost has returned to claim the mask.
But who are those two hooded horribles? They are his emissaries of the living dead.
You mean, like zombies? Yes.
you are in great danger.
You think that story of Zentuo is for real? I don't know, but those two hooded zombies were for real enough.
- Well, they're not getting my mask.
- Don't look now but I think they're after us again.
- I didn't know zombies could drive cars.
- Well, these can.
Hang on, gang.
I'm gonna try and lose them.
Well, they say fish is supposed to be good for you.
Yeah, but this is overdoing it.
Shaggy.
Shaggy! Scooby.
Shaggy! Like, thanks, Scoob.
I was beginning to feel like a sardine.
- Hey, where's Daphne? - Oh, no.
Look.
Those two creeps have got her and the mask.
Well, we finally got the Mystery Machine out but there's no telling where Daphne is.
Maybe Scooby can sniff out their trail.
It's, like, no use.
All he can smell is fresh fish.
Hey, wait a minute.
What's this? It looks like a Chinese laundry ticket.
Those hooded hyenas dropped it.
I can read Chinese, but I can't make heads or tails of this.
Like, what's with Scoob? That laundry ticket must have reflected something off my glasses.
Look.
When it's held up to a mirror, you can read it.
It, like, says, "The temple in the hills.
" Hey, I know where that place is.
It's supposed to be haunted.
That's where they must have taken Daphne.
Scary old place, here we come.
The quickest way to find Daphne is to split up.
Shag, you and Scoob go that way.
Velma and I will go this way.
But it's, like, dark and spooky down there.
Where else would ghosts be living? Yeah.
I never thought of it that way.
Come on, Scooby.
Coming.
Nothing down here but a bunch of dragons and statues.
And don't look now, but one of them is opening.
- Help! Help! Help! - Look! It's Daphne.
Come on, you guys, get me out of here.
I think she's trying to tell us something.
It's a trap.
- Now we're all locked in.
- And there's no way out.
I wonder what's behind that curtain, Scoob.
A shower? No, it's not a shower.
Now, like, go in there and take a look.
What are you, a dog or a mouse? How do you like that? Man's best friend is a mouse.
I guess it's up to me to take a look.
But what you can't see can't hurt you.
Shaggy! I might have known I'd walk into a flowerpot.
Hand me the towel, will you, Scoob? Right.
Zoinks! He'll never get through that door, Scoob.
Wouldn't you know - he'd come through the wall? - You have angered the ghost of Zentuo.
Now you shall pay.
What'll we do, Scooby-Doo? You mean, bluff him? It's worth a try.
You don't scare us, Zentuo.
Go on, I dare you to cross the line.
But I warn you, I know judo chop suey and Chinese checkers.
Well, how about this line? I don't think he wants to play anymore.
Zoinks! The scare pair! We're running, Scoob, but, like, we're not going anywhere.
- Shaggy, look.
- Zoinks! Low bridge coming up.
Faster, Scoob.
Faster.
Slower, Scoob! Slower! Welcome to Shag's and Scooby's haunted Chinese restaurant.
The place where the ghosts eat the most.
You two look like you could stand a little fattening up.
A bib for the boo boys.
Mustn't get dirty, you know.
Here.
The specialty of the house.
Chocolate chop suey and sparerib a la mode.
If you want anything else, just go: After them.
It's no use.
It won't budge.
I guess our only chance is if Shag and Scoob can find us.
It's up to Shag and Scoob? Oh, boy, are we in trouble.
It looks like we finally ditched those creeps, Scoob.
Don't you know it's illegal to shoot off fireworks and wreck a storeroom? We will build a new storeroom.
Like, who's gonna build a new us? Come on, Scoob.
We gotta put out that fuse.
Okay.
One more bounce ought to do it.
We did it.
Well, what do you know? We're free.
Lucky you two landed on the idol's arms.
That's what opened it.
Like, now that we've found you, let's get lost.
- Not before we solve this mystery.
- We've just got to find a clue.
I know where there's one.
I saw it when those two goons brought me here.
- A pigeon coop? - I think Daphne was right.
These are carrier pigeons.
And listen to the message tied to this one's leg.
- But, like, what does it mean? - This mystery is just about solved.
Right.
And all that's left to do is trap Mr.
Zentuo.
But first, we'll need a Chinese gong, a couple of Roman candle rockets and Shaggy's model train set from the Mystery Machine.
I sure hope this crazy contraption works.
Sure it will.
When Zentuo comes through that doorway he'll step right on that gong.
Then we pull the string that snaps the mousetrap and strikes the match on the sandpaper so it can light the fuse.
Then old 'Tuo will rocket down the train tracks into that pigeon coop, where we'll have him.
If Scoob's finished laying the track, we're all set to go.
Like, he better be, because here comes Zentuo now.
Yikes! Well, it's not the way we planned it but it looks like we've got ourselves a sackful of ghosts.
Scooby-Doo! From the beginning, we suspected Mr.
Fong was the leader of an international smuggling ring but could never get any evidence to prove it.
Well, this mask will give you all the evidence you need, Inspector Lu.
Each month, one of these masks was sent to Mr.
Fong from out of the country.
Inside there's a roll of recording tape with the names and dates of all their shipments.
They play the tapes, write down the information on tiny slips of paper and send it to their gang by carrier pigeon.
But how did you kids get the mask? By accident.
It was delivered to a curio shop by mistake - where I bought it.
- And this ghost getup was used to scare away anyone who got curious about this old temple.
You know, all this excitement has made me hungry.
- Me too.
- Well, fellas I just happen to have one Scooby snack with me but you'll have to jump for it.
This'll be a cinch.
Scooby-Doo.
How do you like that? Outfoxed by a mouse.
