"A Pup named Scooby Doo" pic-spam review - "Night of the Boogey Biker"

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




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...





... 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!




"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.




"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.





Then, Shaggy wants to know if anybody has seen his pizza. So what does Freddy do?



Yup. That's right. He accuses Red Herring.



Daphne makes another snarky comment...



... and that's when Scooby walks in, carrying the last piece of Shaggy's pizza. Surprisingly enough, Shaggy isn't angry.





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...




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.



This time, Freddy agrees with her. He then goes on to specifying why exactly he hates Red. A moment later, the phone rings.





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.



Shaggy and Scooby find this impossible...



... so Fred takes the challenge to prove them wrong.



He starts having trouble after... five seconds.






"This'll not be as easy as I thought!"

Then, someone throws a pebble into the gang's clubhouse.



After that, there comes a rock.



After it happens for the third time, Fred declares: "I know what's happening! It's gotta be..."



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".




You know things are serious when you see Pup-Velma with an angry face! XD

Contrary to Fred's expectations/hopes/whatever, the rock-thrower isn't Red Herring. It's his aunt, Mrs. Hedda Herring.




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.O

Anyway, 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.




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. XD

Scooby 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.




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".






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.





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.






"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.



Unluckily for Freddy, Red doesn't obey.




"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.



Then, Scooby's super-sniffer finds tire tracks leading into some "spooky-looking bushes".





Naturally, Shaggy and Scooby refuse to go there.



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.





Instead of a chase song, we get some... interesting wild takes.








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.









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.






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...





... 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).




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.



So, instead of bribing them with Scooby/Shaggy-snacks, Daphne simply uses force.



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.






Even Daphne is impressed!

Guess who shows up then.



The kids do another wild take...



... 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.







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.







This results in the motorcycle wildly going around (with one scared puppy on board)...







... and bump into the Boogey Biker who has cornered the gang.





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.





Daphne and Shaggy both agree that the culprit must be Winnie who hates Hedda's bike.




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.



Luckily, Scooby is there for him.





Finally, it's time to unmask the culprit. Even Velma is shocked upon finding out BB's real identity.



Do you still remember your wild guess? Who do you think was behind this all the time?



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.




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.





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.





Aunt Hedda praises Red for a job well done and "kindly" asks him to put the bike back in the garage.





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.





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.



This prompts Freddy to accuse Red again...



... and start another one of his rants about Red Herring, aliens, Red Herring, monsters, Red Herring... well, you get the point.



As for Scooby and Shaggy, they simply put muffs on their ears and just enjoy the fact that everything is back to normal.



Have some sweetness at the end!




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. :)
