[music continues]

[Daphne] 'This visit to China sure is exciting.'

Yeah, like, I'm learning a lot of important Chinese words.

Important? Like what, Shag?

Huh, like, listen to this.

"Chop suey, chow mein, wor wonton

sui kow, chow yuk."

[Daphne] 'Shaggy, that's a menu.'

From a Chinese restaurant back in the States.

Well, for Scoob and me, those are important words.

- Right, Scoob? - Yeah. Yeah.

[both laughing]

Go ahead and laugh, you two

but it looks like we missed a turn somewhere.

Then, where are we?

- I know. - You do? Where, Scoob?

Lost.

[giggling]

[Velma] We've been following the Rampoo river

so we must be here, Rampoo.

"The legendary city of Rampoo, where centuries ago

"a mysterious creature known as the Moon Monster..

- Moon Monster? - Take it easy, Scooby.

Like, it's only a legend. Isn't it, Daphne?

A Moon Monster came to Earth on a moonbeam."

A moonbeam?

It was probably cheaper than a taxi.

[giggling]

Then what?

"It entered the palace of Rampoo

"and casts its shadow on the inhabitants.

Turning anyone, on whose shadow would fell, into a stone."

Stone, like, that's pretty hard to believe, Velma.

bang

[both] It's the Moon Monster!

Hey, take it easy, guys, it's just a flat tire.

Look..

'...this must be the palace of Rampoo.'

[Fred] 'Too bad it isn't a service station.'

Look on the bright side, guys, like, it's only

'flat on the bottom, huh, get it?'

[Shaggy laughing]

Unh-unh!

Maybe we can stay at the palace tonight

and fix the flat in the morning.

Well, it's worth a try, Fred.

splatt

Stay the night, i-in there?

With the Moon Monster?

Good idea, Scoob. Like, let's get it that tire.

Now, I think we put the jack under here.

[growling]

Okay, Scoob. Like, let's try pumping now.

[creaking]

- Harder, Scoob. - Okay.

One really hard pump now, Scoob.

One...two...three!

Wow.

Like, I think that was a little too hard, Scooby.

[growling]

Wa-was that you, Scoob?

- Uh, was that you? - Nope.

Then it must have been..

[gulps] ...him!

[growling]

[both] Yikes!

[Fred] 'Shaggy, Shaggy, can you hear me?'

Your friend will be fine.

How are you feeling, young man?

[both screaming]

Relax, Shaggy, this is Ling Foo.

At your service.

Is the Moon Monster gone?

Moon Monster? You saw him?

[laughing] Like, not nearly soon enough.

Shaggy, Scooby, this is Kim Chow Ling.

The new owner of the palace of Rampoo.

Pleased to meet you.

It's an honor.

Like how do we stop this?

What's this about the Moon Monster?

Uh, we saw him, Fred. Oh, h*, h*, h*.

Like, it was like the moon turned into a monster.

It glowed all over.

I'm afraid that the full moon's known

for playing tricks upon one's eyes.

Especially on rains like Chinese nights.

That's just a legend, Shaggy.

We already asked Kim about it.

He just got here from the United States.

What a coincidence? He just got here and we're just leaving.

[both] Yikes!

Our guests should not travel so late at night.

Is it, is it, that late-l-late already, huh? Heh-heh-heh.

Time sure flies when you're sc-s-s-scared silly.

May I introduce you to my uncle.

Chin Wong Sing.

We are honored by your presence.

We appreciate your hospitality, Mr. Sing.

Phew, like he's on our side, Scoob.

You have arrived at a time of great celebration.

Tomorrow, upon reaching his 25th birthday

Kim is to fulfill the ancient legacy

and take possession of the family's priceless

treasure of jewels and gold.

- Jewels and gold? - Wow.

Like, his family must have stock in chopsticks.

[Ling Foo] But the treasures have a curse on them.

To not dispose of them will surely anger the Moon Monster

and bring his return.

'If you keep them, everyone in the palace'

'will be in danger.'

L-l-l-like does that include c-c-cowards?

A-and dogs?

Everyone!

Well, back to the flat tire, g*ng.

[Kim] 'Please wait, my friends, there's nothing to fear.'

Yeah, well, tell that to the glowing monster

you got in your garden.

splatt

On second thought, we'll stay.

[Shaggy] 'I don't know about you, Scoob, but I'm too nervous to sleep.'

Like, who knows where that Moon Monster is now.

Scoob?

Scooby!

- Where are you? - 'Up here.'

'What are you doin' up there?'

- Shh! Watching the door. - Watching the door?

Good idea, Scooby.

That Moon creep will never get past you.

[growling]

Ye-e-o-o-w!

Hey, like, watch out.

Get off me. What's going on, Scoob?

That's going on.

[growling]

The Moon Monster!

Shaggy, help!

Gotcha, Scoob!

screech

[growling]

You really think there could be a Moon Monster, Kim?

Who's to say, Daphne?

- We say! - Right!

He was just in our room. Fangs and all.

[Fred] 'Let's check it out.'

We're right behind you, Fred.

[Shaggy] 'We're right behind you too, Fred.'

Like, wa-a-ay behind.

Perhaps I should take these legends more seriously.

Like, right, Kim, take them before they take you.

Wait, guys, come here quick. There it is.

[Daphne gasps] 'It's the Moon Monster'

'and he's getting away in a sampan.'

We can't let him get out of our sight.

It's too late, Velma.

'The fog's too thick. We've lost him.'

So, that's the family treasure.

Phew!

Yes, but the legend states that I've got to throw it

all in the bay or meet the fate of the Moon Monster.

Like what a choice to have to make.

[Kim] 'I don't know what to do.'

Scooby-Doo!

[gong rings]

- What was that? - It's the dinner gong.

Why would Uncle Chin be ringing it at this hour?

Don't knock it, Kim. Anytime is dinnertime.

You're just in time for dinner, Velma.

At 2:00 in the morning?

Uncle Chin's the man after our own stomachs.

Uncle Chin!

[Daphne] 'How did the Moon Monster get back in the palace?'

Uncle Chin! Get out of his shadow.

- Uncle Chin. - 'He's been turned into stone.'

- Hey guys, look at this. - 'What is it, Velma?'

What do you suppose these greasy streaks mean?

Maid's day off?

There's something strange going on around here

and we're going to find out what it is.

This is, was Uncle Chin's room.

And what's all this, Kim?

[Kim] 'My uncle collected the ancient tools of China.'

'Some of them very valuable.'

'That carving tool for instance is worth a fortune.'

[Shaggy] 'A fortune. Like, I should look through my toolbox at home.'

I wonder how much I could get for my screwdriver.

splatt

Dispose of your treasure, Kim Chow Ling.

If you do not, we are all at the mercy of the Moon Monster.

You are the only one who can save us.

[instrumental music]

We've got to find out where the Moon Monster

went in the sampan.

Right, and how he got back into the palace so fast.

[Fred] 'In the meantime, you two can check out the palace ground.'

- Y-y-you mean like out here? - With the Moon Monster?

Wait. Let us go with you.

[Fred] 'The boat's not big enough.'

- We'll swim. - Yeah. Dog paddle.

[Velma] 'Just look for clues.'

It's hopeless, Fred.

There's just no way to tell which way he went.

[gasps] Hey! The current's caught us.

I don't know if I can fight it.

[Daphne] Fred, we're being pulled into those rocks.

The current's too strong, Daphne.

[Velma] 'Wait. I think see something.'

'There's a cave.'

[Fred] We're being pulled inside.

Oh. That was close.

Hey, look at all those junk.

The current in the bay washed these things up in here.

Including us. Now, that's strong.

Hey, Fred, Velma, look over here. A tunnel.

Where do you think it leads?

There's only one way to find out, Daphne.

Right. Let's go.

How about that, Scoob?

The water is so clean, you can see yourself in it.

That's me.

[laughing] And that's me.

And that..

[whimpers] The Moon Monster.

[growling]

Run, Scoob!

Don't let his shadow fall on you, Scoob

or you'll turn into stone.

Yipes!

[panting] Like, it's already too late for him.

[Moon Monster growling]

screech

A taxi, sir?

[growling]

Where to, sir?

'Yes, sir.'

[instrumental music]

[both] Yikes!

[gong rings]

[pants] We did it, pal.

[pants] Yeah, we did it.

[laughing] He's comin' in through the walls, Scoob.

- Push! Like hard. - I'm pushing, I'm pushing.

We're back in the palace.

Just as I thought. We're getting close to solving this mystery.

- 'Fred.' - 'Velma, Daphne.'

That's Shaggy and Scooby.

What were you doing behind the wall?

Panicking.

[Daphne] 'Shaggy, Scooby, watch out!'

[both coughing]

Hey, someone's coming. Click off the lights, Velma.

I-it's the Moon Monster.

No, Kim, wait!

The Moon Monster. What did he mean by that?

[Shaggy] 'Beats me.'

Shaggy, Scooby. You're glowing.

- I am? - Like, he's right, Scoob.

We are glowing.

That flour isn't flour at all.

It's some special kind of fluorescent powder.

You mean, like, if we made a birthday cake

out of it, we wouldn't need candles?

Exactly.

We've got to find Kim right away.

You must throw the treasures into the bay, my master

to fulfill the ancient legend and rid us of the Moon Monster.

I fear you are right, Ling Foo, but it may already be too late.

- 'It's not too late yet, Kim.' - What?

We think Ling Foo is right.

Yeah, like you should throw the gold into the bay.

Your friends are wise, Kim.

But my legacy. My treasures!

Trust us, Kim. We think we can help.

Well, that's the last of it.

Now what?

Now, we'll just do what the legend says to do.

- Throw it in the bay. - Let me.

[screaming]

[Shaggy] 'Watch it, Scoob.'

[Velma] Scooby, the rope.

Scooby..

I'm okay.

splash

Like you got to be more careful, Scoob.

Yeah, yeah. Next time.

honk

Oops.

- I'll get it, Scooby. - Sorry, Velma.

- Now what, Fred? - Now, you just come with us.

We think you'll find this very interesting.

[instrumental music]

[growling]

[laughing]

[Fred] Enjoy it while you can.

The Moon Monster, and my treasure.

You're little game is up, Moon Monster.

- But how? - Hand over the treasure.

Be careful, Fred, like, you shouldn't make him angry.

- He's headed this way, Scoob. - Yeah, run!

- After him. - But I don't understand.

We'll explain later.

He's still behind us, Scoob.

He's just ahead.

Head for the bridge.

[growling]

Toll bridge goin' up.

creak

[instrumental music]

[screaming]

splash

Nice catch, Kim.

You mean, nice catch, Shaggy and Scooby.

'They caught the Moon Monster.'

[laughing] Like, how about that, Scoob. We're heroes.

Not bad.

[Kim] 'Uncle Chin! But, but why?'

For the treasure, Kim. You stood between him and a fortune.

He used the legend of the Moon Monster

to try and frighten you out of your legacy.

But we saw him, turn to stone, by the Moon Monster.

Wrong, Kim. We saw what seemed to be your Uncle Chin

turned into stone, but your uncle was actually

in the Moon Monster disguise.

You rang the gong, and when we got there

it looked like a Moon Monster had turned your uncle

into a statue.

Well, what was the statue then?

Your uncle carved that himself with the ancient carving tool.

[Velma] It was scratched and dull

unlike the rest of his collection

telling us it had been used lately.

[Fred] And the grease marks on the floor were where he pushed

the statue out from the secret panel before we got there.

Incredible. I should not have been fooled so, master.

We were all fooled, Ling Foo.

Uncle Chin knew that the tides would wash anything tossed

into the bay into that cave

so all he had to do was scare you into

throwing your treasure away

and then be there to get it when it washed up.

- And I would never know. - 'Exactly.'

And now I am sure, we all need a good night's rest.

- Or perhaps a snack? - Like, thanks, Kim.

Yeah, thanks.

Ready, set, go!

Egg foo young, chop suey, chow mein.

Spare ribs, rumaki, yow mei.

Yong fou, lod chong, egg roast, sai go gai and moo goo gai pan.

Sui choy, bok choy, shandong, sai foo and shumai.

One super special Shaggy sandwich goin' down.

Scooby-Dooby-Doo!

[giggles]

It looks Scooby's eyes are bigger than his stomach.

[chuckles] You mean bigger than his mouth, don't you, Kim?

[laughs]
