Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! (1969) s02e08 Episode Script
Don't Fool with a Phantom
Groovy! Fred and Daphne.
And now for the next original dance on the Johnny Sands Dance Game Show.
.
.
.
.
.
here's Shaggy and Scooby-Doo and their ''Toffee Twist.
'' Well, it is original, and they might just win the dance contest.
-Except for one thing, Mr.
Stevens.
-What's that? They might eat their way out of the contest.
-Like, l thought it was an eating contest.
-Me too.
Hey! What was that? Scooby-Doo, where are you? Right here.
Let me out of here! -What happened? -Johnny's famous for his.
.
.
.
.
.
publicity stunts, but this tops everything.
Sure, but what was that big, shapeless thing? l don't know, but it was awful.
Help! ln here! Help! lt's coming from that way.
Come on.
Hey, how about us? Come on, Scoob.
Keep hopping and eating.
lt's the only way out of this.
Yeah.
What a mess.
Come on, Johnny.
The publicity stunt's over.
But it wasn't a publicity stunt.
Like, what's happening? The lights went out, and all l can remember is the Wax Phantom.
-Wax Phantom? -Yes.
The station's been receiving threatening notes signed ''the Wax Phantom.
'' Several years ago, the TV station had a wax-figure maker.
.
.
.
.
.
named Grisby on a show.
.
.
-.
.
.
and then canceled him.
-l remember.
Anyway, this eccentric old character swore revenge.
-Like what? -He promised to bring to life.
.
.
.
.
.
one of his wax creations from the wax museum.
Like-- Like that big wax creep? Yes.
The Wax Phantom.
To destroy us all.
Well, you're okay.
Yeah.
But what happened to Mr.
Stevens, the station manager? That's right.
He just vanished.
The safe was robbed.
Mr.
Stevens could've been taken hostage.
Yes, except for one thing.
How could that 9-foot wax guy just vanish? And with a hostage? Unless the curse of the Wax Phantom is true.
The Wax Phantom? Look! Wax footprints.
-And look where they go.
-That's a good trick.
The tracks stop at the window, and we're 1 0 stories up.
-Maybe we should call the police.
-No.
The station's in financial trouble.
This kind of publicity could close it.
Well, it looks like we have another mystery on our hands.
And, like, judging from the size of those footprints, a really big mystery.
Let's get started.
Now, here's my plan.
Daph and l will check out the wax museum.
And, Velma, you and Shaggy and Scooby go question Grisby.
-Sands gave you his address.
-How about, like, some other time? -How about, like, when? -How about, like, Christmas? Okay, then.
Merry Christmas! Nobody's home.
Let's go.
Come on, you guys.
Don't be so chicken.
Ghosts! Look up there.
Well, like, who's chicken? Who? Like, we still are.
That's who.
-Zoinks! -Enter.
-Yes, sir.
-There's a cemetery nearby.
What a place to live.
Nice place you have here, Mr.
Grisby.
-Like, nice and scary.
-Yeah.
Scary.
-We want to ask you what happened at-- -The TV station tonight? -Yes, but how did you know? -l have my ways, like my crystal ball.
l wonder what's cooking.
Looks like Mom's stew.
l've heard of bubble gum, but bubble-ghost stew? Ridiculous.
Yeah.
Ridiculous.
You saw the Wax Phantom, eh? Unfortunately, yes.
Then my black magic is working to exact the revenge l promised.
Zoinks! Yikes! Quick! We've got to hurry to the museum and warn the others.
So they didn't believe in the foolish old wax-maker's black magic, eh.
.
.
.
.
.
Wax Phantom? lt looks closed for the night, but come on.
-Somebody forgot to lock the door.
-Hey, they did! Well, let's go in.
What clicked? lt almost had me! Relax! lt's just a wax figure.
There's nothing for real.
-That's for real.
-You know it! l don't get it.
The door is locked.
Yeah, and the Mystery Machine is here.
Let's split up.
No.
Our friends need us.
We'll have to boost Scooby through a window to let us in.
-Not me.
-Nothing could get him into that place.
Not even a Scooby Snack? Well, almost nothing.
Let's find a window, Scoob.
Scooby-Doo! Oh, boy.
Oh, boy.
Oh, boy.
-Let's go find the window, Scoob.
-Right.
Hold on, Velma.
Like: Where are we? We'll soon find out.
l'll turn on the lights.
Zoinks! Cool it, you two.
This is just a wax-monster display.
Like, phooey.
Now for that vampire.
Okay, Scoob, let's get with it.
-Zoinks! -Yikes! lt's okay, guys.
That's just part of the act too.
Oh, no! Like, it's just part of the act, Velma.
Maybe, but that isn't.
-Sure glad to run into you, Velma.
-Where's Shag and Scoob? They were right over-- Look! lt's opening! Like: Shaggy! What are you doing in there? Like, who knows? We just dropped in to see my mummy.
Yeah.
Mummy.
Hey, what's that on the floor? lt's some kind of an airline ticket.
lt is an airline ticket.
To South America! Somebody must have accidentally dropped it.
Like, somebody or something.
Anyway, it's real, and it's a clue.
And there might be more clues around.
Let's go.
-Look! The Wax Phantom display.
-But no Wax Phantom! -That's because he's looking for us.
-Well, then let's us look for him.
Like, there's something l'd rather look for.
You all go on.
Food.
Now, if the Wax Phantom doesn't drop in on us-- lt looks like we did the dropping in.
And from the looks of this place, there's no way out.
Then it's got us.
We're prisoners of the Wax Phantom.
-Hey, Scoob, pass the yummy fruit.
-Okay.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Wax! Like, everything here is wax! Yes, foolish intruders.
-What? -You, too, shall soon become members.
.
.
-.
.
.
of my wax family.
-Like, we're sorry, Mr.
Phantom.
-But here, have some fruit.
-Yeah, here.
Don't ask me how we got on the ceiling, but hang on, Scoob.
-Oh, boy! -When l say let go, let loose.
.
.
.
.
.
and we'll drop down on the sofa.
Go! Like, this place is haunted.
We let go, but we didn't fall.
lt'll get us.
Come on! Like, that worked up an appetite.
Hold out your paw.
Yeah.
Hey! Let's get out of here, fast! Like, we're safe now.
-l think.
-Oh, no! Oh, yes! No windows or doors.
We're trapped for sure.
Hey! A secret panel! What did you find? -Money, and a lot of it.
-That came from that TV station's safe.
l'd say it's a valuable clue.
Sure, but we can't get out of here.
That old phantom, he makes me so mad! Velma, you did it again! -What, lose my temper? -Yes, and found a way out.
You stepped on a secret-door lever.
-l did? -Yeah.
How about that? Let's go.
We better search for Shaggy and Scooby.
-But where? -Zoinks! Offhand, l'd say over there at that ventilator.
Come on.
Let's take a peek.
lt's Shaggy and Scooby and the Wax Phantom! l know this sounds silly, but what are we doing in the waxworks? You will soon become wax dummies.
But we're already dummies, right, Scoob? Right.
See? We're dummies.
Not the old ride-on-the-conveyor-belt- into-the-wax routine.
Oh, no.
Like, that went out with the silent movies, phantom, old pal.
-Do something.
-Do something? Okay.
Oh, those poor boys.
Daphne, look out! Hey! That lever stopped the conveyor belt.
No, it didn't.
She reversed it.
Come on.
We've got to help them! What happened? -lt was nice of phanty to break our fall.
-Yeah.
Like, l was afraid he'd say that.
Now where did they go? That way.
The phantom is after them.
Then we better go after the phantom.
Come on! Boy, we're safe now.
Boy, are we glad to see you guys! How did you ever escape? Like, you might say we just let the Wax Phantom use his head.
What do we do about the phantom? We trap him by fighting wax with wax.
Like, you've got to be kidding.
No, and it should be easy.
We'll trap him in his own waxworks.
Now, here's my plan.
Look down there.
Velma, you'll hide on the top of those crates to serve as a lookout.
Daphne will stay behind the door.
When the phantom comes in, she'll slam it.
.
.
.
.
.
and lock old waxy inside so he can't escape.
l'll be over there to operate the wax-shower sprayer.
When the phantom steps in the shower, he's wax! Like, why should the phantom go to the shower? Simple.
You and Scoob will lure him there.
-Us? -Us? Freddy, the plan is fantastic, but-- -But what? -We won't do it, right, Scoob? Right.
-Have you got another plan? -Like, yeah! Look out there and tell me what you see.
The waxworks.
-They're gone! -Of all the nerve! l have to laugh at myself.
Those two chickens tricked us.
-What was that? -The phantom, that's what.
You're right.
lt is the Wax Phantom.
Run! l am! l hope this will hold him.
Bombs away! -Bull's-eye! -Get him over here, Shaggy! As soon as he uncrates himself, Freddy.
He's coming.
l hope we're too fast for old waxy.
-We must be way ahead of the phantom.
-Oh, yeah? Me and my big mouth.
Lead him through the showers for his wax job, Shaggy! Hey! Shag! Scoob! You weren't supposed to be in on this! Well, it looks like you captured the Wax Phantom, but who's who? The two small ones are Shaggy and Scooby.
And the big one's the phantom, whom they so artistically captured.
-ln his own wax.
-And now for the unwaxing.
-Okay, Scoob? -You got to be kidding.
Now, Mr.
Wax Phantom, time to find out who you really are.
Hey! You're chipping him down to regular size.
Mr.
Roger Stevens, the TV station manager! And l wish you'd have minded your own business.
Well, in this case, it's police business.
We thought old waxy was really a ghost.
Or at least old Grisby was behind it.
No, Shaggy.
That's just what Stevens wants us to think.
.
.
.
.
.
while he escapes to South America with all the money he embezzled.
Sure.
Stevens knew of old Grisby's threat to bring the Wax Phantom to life.
So he used the phantom disguise.
Then Grisby would be blamed for everything.
lncluding Stevens' disappearance.
l'll take him now, kids.
Thanks.
-Aren't our wax statues the greatest? -Yeah.
What are you fellas going to do with those wax dummies? Like, simple.
Next time we have a mystery.
.
.
.
.
.
those dummies can go instead of us.
There's only one problem: How to tell one pair of dummies from the other.
Very funny.
Very funny.
Yeah.
Very funny.
