Hello there, buddies! I assume you know the "Pup named Scooby Doo" show - if not by watching it, then thanks to
brendala and her "pic-spam reviews". With that said, let me add this review is gonna be a gift for her (no special occasion).
Be warned - there's a LOT of pictures down there. I hope you have at least half an hour for reading the text and watching the images. XD
![NBB001 NBB001]()
In this episode, Daphne challenges Fred to NOT accuse Red Herring for 24 hours. Take a wild guess how it'll end... ^_^
Wild guess taken? Great, now remember it because off we go to the episode!
It starts with the kids hanging around in their clubhouse and doing nothing special...
![NBB002 NBB002]()
![NBB003 NBB003]()
... except for Freddy, that is. He, in turn, is very busy with making the "WANTED" poster for his main enemy, named... let's say it all together... Red Herring!
![NBB004 NBB004]()
"I know he did it! I don't know what he did - but I know he did it!"Suddenly, Daphne asks if Velma has seen her coat by a chance. But before she can get a response, Fred cuts in.
![NBB006 NBB006]()
"I'll bet Red Herring took it!"After Velma explains that Daphne probably left her coat at home, Miss Daphne Snarkypants asks Freddy Sherlock Goof if there's anything else he wants to blame on Red. Of course, Freddy, being Freddy, doesn't notice the irony and simply promises to think of something.
![NBB008 NBB008]()
![NBB009 NBB009]()
Then, Shaggy wants to know if anybody has seen his pizza. So what does Freddy do?
![NBB010 NBB010]()
Yup. That's right. He accuses Red Herring.
![NBB011 NBB011]()
Daphne makes another snarky comment...
![NBB012 NBB012]()
... and that's when Scooby walks in, carrying the last piece of Shaggy's pizza. Surprisingly enough, Shaggy isn't angry.
![NBB013 NBB013]()
![NBB014 NBB014]()
Fred then shouts that Scooby only THINKS he ate the pizza while actually, it was Red Herring who stole it. Scooby immediately realizes the lack of logic...
![NBB015 NBB015]()
Back off, you maniac!... and Daphne states Fred's gone insane. Okay, she didn't say those exact words but I think that's what she meant.
![NBB017 NBB017]()
This time, Freddy agrees with her. He then goes on to specifying why exactly he hates Red. A moment later, the phone rings.
![NBB018 NBB018]()
![NBB019 NBB019]()
Turns out it's Red who has called to tease Freddy a bit.
And break the fourth wall in the meantime.Then, Daphne gets her brilliant idea. She believes that if Fred doesn't accuse Red for full 24 hours, he'll be cured of his obsession.
![NBB021 NBB021]()
Shaggy and Scooby find this impossible...
![NBB022 NBB022]()
... so Fred takes the challenge to prove them wrong.
![NBB023 NBB023]()
He starts having trouble after... five seconds.
![NBB024 NBB024]()
![NBB025 NBB025]()
"This'll not be as easy as I thought!"Then, someone throws a pebble into the gang's clubhouse.
![NBB027 NBB027]()
After that, there comes a rock.
![NBB028 NBB028]()
After it happens for the third time, Fred declares: "I know what's happening! It's gotta be..."
![NBB029 NBB029]()
Just as he's about to say Red's the culprit, his friends "subtly" remind him he promised to not accuse him. So he finishes his sentence as innocently as he can - "bigger rock".
![NBB030 NBB030]()
You know things are serious when you see Pup-Velma with an angry face! XDContrary to Fred's expectations/hopes/whatever, the rock-thrower isn't Red Herring. It's his aunt, Mrs. Hedda Herring.
![NBB032 NBB032]()
Wait. If she's Mrs. Herring, then there's no way she and Red can be related by blood. So how come they resemble each other so much? o.OAnyway, it turns out Mrs. Herring wants to hire the gang because somebody has stolen her motorcycle and their agency just happens to be the closest to wherever she lives.
![NBB034 NBB034]()
Sorry, Freddy. It's NOT because of your... unusual theories.And Fred gets a bit scared when Hedda identifies him as the one who's always accusing her nephew.
Now, a *gulp* should come. XDScooby happily confirms, giving Freddy bigger scare.
I think it might be kind of a revenge on Freddy for being just as helpful for Velmaon two other occasions... ^_^Thankfully, though, Mrs. Herring goes on to crying about her loss which has happened just a day before her birthday. She even hands the gang a photo of her "baby" (her own word!) so they know what they're looking for.
![NBB038 NBB038]()
She must really love it if she thinks THIS is pretty...The crime scene doesn't look much better.
This reminds me of my grandpa's cellar. He has just as many things in it. ^_^While Fred plays with a yo-yo, heroically trying to stop himself from accusing Red out loud, Hedda tells the kids a story of The Boogey Biker with whom she competed a long time ago and who vanished during that one race in which she won her "baby".
![NBB041 NBB041]()
![NBB042 NBB042]()
I must admit she was quite pretty back then.Shaggy is so freaked out by the story that he clings to Velma's proto-laptop.
The closest he can get to Velma without actually disturbing her at work... =)Eventually, Hedda (in a very loud voice) reminds the kids they won't get paid unless they find her motorcycle, then snickers, calls them "weenies" (jinkies, she and Red do have something in common) and leaves them alone.
![NBB045 NBB045]()
![NBB046 NBB046]()
Once they recover from the shock, Fred says it's time to look for clues. And Scooby quickly finds the first one.
Is it only me, or does Pup-Fred really look better with messy hair?The clue is a jacket. Red Herring's jacket, as it turns out. Red explains he helps Aunt Hedda find her motorbike and mockingly asks Freddy who does he suspect.
![NBB048 NBB048]()
![NBB049 NBB049]()
"N-nobody...?"Daphne tells him about the challenge and Shaggy and Scooby prove to be better friends than Fred has ever been by demanding from Red to leave the poor kid alone this one time.
![NBB051 NBB051]()
Unluckily for Freddy, Red doesn't obey.
![NBB052 NBB052]()
"What can I say? The boy's a weenie!"Once Red's gone, Daphne praises Fred for being brave and not accusing the bully. Fred himself doesn't look all that happy, though.
![NBB054 NBB054]()
Then, Scooby's super-sniffer finds tire tracks leading into some "spooky-looking bushes".
![NBB055 NBB055]()
![NBB056 NBB056]()
Naturally, Shaggy and Scooby refuse to go there.
![NBB057 NBB057]()
Fred tries to convince them by saying there's nothing in there but gets proved wrong when the Boogey Biker (BB) emerges from the bushes.
![NBB058 NBB058]()
![NBB059 NBB059]()
Instead of a chase song, we get some... interesting wild takes.
![NBB060 NBB060]()
![NBB061 NBB061]()
![NBB062 NBB062]()
I haven't known hair could rise THAT much...
... nor that you could run away and leave it behind.The kids are able to fool BB into thinking he's gonna race against Velma and Scooby. So, when Fred waves the green flag, BB rides away and the kids can finally take a break.
![NBB065 NBB065]()
![NBB066 NBB066]()
![NBB067 NBB067]()
![NBB068 NBB068]()
Scooby then picks up a wrench, thinking it was Velma who lost it. She says that, jinkies, the thing isn't hers. Upon hearing this, Fred grabs the wrench and is about to announce it must belong to Red, when he finds it unfair that Velma can say "jinkies" while he can't say "Red Herring". Daphne is quick to tell him it's NOT the same thing.
![NBB069 NBB069]()
![NBB070 NBB070]()
Sorry, Fred, but she's right. You talk almost all the time while Velma is quiet so don't you even think of arguing.Also, it seems that, while getting rid of BB, the kids have woken up a woman. Turns out her name is Winnie Baygo and she just happens to be Mrs. Herring's neighbor. Plus, she's glad that Hedda's motorbike has disappeared because she hates this noisy thing. She even says she'd steal it herself if it wasn't too dangerous...
![NBB072 NBB072]()
![NBB073 NBB073]()
... and, just a second later, she puts on a helmet and goes off to her lesson for some evidently dangerous sport (I couldn't catch the name, sorry).
![NBB074 NBB074]()
Perfect logic, Winnie. -.-When she's gone, Fred reminds the gang they still have to follow the tire tracks and find Hedda's motorbike. Shaggy and Scooby still refuse. They even say there's no way anyone can make them go into those spooky bushes.
![NBB076 NBB076]()
So, instead of
bribing them with Scooby/Shaggy-snacks, Daphne simply uses force.
![NBB077 NBB077]()
The tire tracks lead to a shed, inside which the gang finds a motorbike looking a bit like Hedda's one but with a sidecart - and a lot cleaner.
![NBB078 NBB078]()
![NBB079 NBB079]()
Even Daphne is impressed!Guess who shows up then.
![NBB081 NBB081]()
The kids do another wild take...
![NBB082 NBB082]()
... and everybody climbs on... Velma.
Courage - you're doing it wrong. Same for chivalry.Ordered by Shaggy to "like, make tracks" (jinkies, try doing it yourself, hero), Velma runs away, carrying the entire gang... and accidentally losing Scooby along the way.
![NBB084 NBB084]()
![NBB085 NBB085]()
![NBB086 NBB086]()
Scooby then does a few flips in the air, falls into the sidecart, gets his eyes covered by a helmet and accidentally presses a button.
![NBB087 NBB087]()
![NBB088 NBB088]()
![NBB089 NBB089]()
This results in the motorcycle wildly going around (with one scared puppy on board)...
![NBB090 NBB090]()
![NBB091 NBB091]()
![NBB092 NBB092]()
... and bump into the Boogey Biker who has cornered the gang.
![NBB093 NBB093]()
![NBB094 NBB094]()
Then, they both ride together for a while before crashing.
I can't tell who's more scared here...And Shaggy congratulates his pal on catching BB. Scooby thanks him... and admits he doesn't know what did he do.
![NBB096 NBB096]()
![NBB097 NBB097]()
Daphne and Shaggy both agree that the culprit must be Winnie who hates Hedda's bike.
![NBB098 NBB098]()
I disagree. Winnie's skin was darker.And Fred gets angry when Shaggy asks him about his suspect because it's that one thing he isn't allowed to say.
![NBB100 NBB100]()
Luckily, Scooby is there for him.
![NBB101 NBB101]()
![NBB102 NBB102]()
Finally, it's time to unmask the culprit. Even Velma is shocked upon finding out BB's real identity.
![NBB103 NBB103]()
Do you still remember your wild guess? Who do you think was behind this all the time?
![NBB104 NBB104]()
That's right. It really WAS Red Herring. And all that Fred can do is throw himself to the ground, pound it with his fists and cry "I KNEW IT!" over and over.
![NBB105 NBB105]()
Like, sorry, buddy. We couldn't have, like, known that earlier.Then, Hedda walks in and, obviously, wants to know why her nephew stole her motorcycle. And it turns out Red DIDN'T actually steal it - he just took it to fix it and add the sidecart as a birthday surprise for her.
![NBB107 NBB107]()
![NBB108 NBB108]()
Daphne and Scooby think it's sweet and Red says he didn't want them to know about this because it would ruin his reputation.
Is Fred mad at his friends or disappointed that Red didn't really mean anything bad? I can't decide.![NBB110 NBB110]()
![NBB111 NBB111]()
Aunt Hedda praises Red for a job well done and "kindly" asks him to put the bike back in the garage.
![NBB112 NBB112]()
![NBB113 NBB113]()
Looks like he's used to it, though.
"That's my Aunt Hedda!"Meanwhile, Fred has a little "I told you so" rant. To calm him down, Daphne ackonwledges he really was right this time.
![NBB115 NBB115]()
![NBB116 NBB116]()
Shaggy and Scooby then randomly remember they haven't eaten dinner yet. Daphne, wanting to check the time, glances at her wrist and realizes her watch is gone.
![NBB117 NBB117]()
This prompts Freddy to accuse Red again...
![NBB118 NBB118]()
... and start another one of his rants about Red Herring, aliens, Red Herring, monsters, Red Herring... well, you get the point.
![NBB119 NBB119]()
As for Scooby and Shaggy, they simply put muffs on their ears and just enjoy the fact that everything is back to normal.
![NBB120 NBB120]()
Have some sweetness at the end!
![NBB121 NBB121]()
Feel hugged,
brendala! ^_^Obviously, I don't own anything - even though I made the screenshots myself!
PS - If you smiled at least once while reading this, it means I did a decent job. :)
