(male announcer) 'What a game, ladies and gentlemen.'

'We're here in Tokyo, Japan, for what could be'

'the final game in the International Series.'

'The American team leads three games to two'

'in this best of seven series'

'and they look unbeatable tonight.'

And now, Casey Temple is stepping up to bat.

This could do it, folks.

'A homerun and the trophy could be going'

'back to the States for the first time'

'in the history of this event.'

'Yakatori goes into his windup and..'

'Wait.'

[gasping]

What's happening?

Trespassers, you have defiled

my resting place long enough.

It's a dragon beast!

I command you to leave

for now and for all time.

[laughs]

- 'Finally, Tokyo.' - 'Right, Daphne.'

(Fred) 'But we're still too late to catch tonight's ball game.'

Well, we can still see the game tomorrow

if your team hasn't already won.

Shaggy, you and Scooby and Scrappy get the luggage

while we find a taxi, okay?

Sure thing, Fred. I think we can handle that.

This is just taking too long, Uncle Scooby.

I'll go get it myself.

Scrappy.

You better go get him, Scoob.

(Scrappy) 'Okay, you guys. Cough up our luggage.'

'Oh, you wanna get tough, eh?'

Scooby, Scrappy, are you alright?

That's my suitcase.

zoing

Oh!

[laughing]

Oops! Sorry, lady. Here you go.

And that's my hat box.

Allow me.

Excuse me.

Yike!

I'll get our suitcases this time for sure.

Puppy power!

Yikes!

Here we go again.

Oh, I'm sorry, sir.

But there is nothing available until next week.

But that's too late.

I need 20 tickets for the States tonight.

Hey, look. That's Willie Turner.

The coach of the American team.

Is the series over, Mr. Turner?

- You bet it is. - Well, who won?

Well, haven't you heard? Nobody.

A dragon beast appeared and scared everybody out.

(together) Dragon beast?

Yeah, popped up right out of the pitcher's mound

and scared everybody out of the stadium.

I'm not keeping my team in any danger.

We're leaving, and you better too.

Here we are, ready for the hotel.

Yeah, let's go.

Uh, sorry, Shaggy. We're heading for Nakamura stadium.

'To investigate the appearance of a dragon beast.'

(together) Dragon beast!

Wow! Terrific! What are we waiting for?

Follow me. Taxi! Taxi!

(Shaggy) 'You mean we came all the way to Japan'

'just to chase ghosts again?'

(Velma) 'Let me put it this way, Shaggy.'

'Yes.'

Mr. Husai.

Mr. Husai, we heard about the dragon beast

and thought we might be able to help.

I cannot be too careful with this trophy around.

Is that the baseball diamond I've heard about?

Yes, it stays at the stadium of the winning team.

Which, so far, has always been Japan.

If this dragon beast scares everyone off

what happens to the games?

There might be no more games.

And I will be forced to sell the stadium.

Then we have to get to the bottom of this mystery and fast.

Like, there's no way we're gonna go mystery solving

on an empty stomach, right, Scoob?

Right.

Come on, Scoob. Hot dogs first, dragon beasts later.

(Scooby) 'Much later.'

Wait for me, Uncle Scooby.

We might catch us a dragon beast on the way.

Here we go, Scoob. Sashimi.

Hmm, like that must be Japanese for hot dogs.

You're not really gonna eat now, are you

with that dragon beast running loose?

Especially with the dragon beast running around, Scrappy.

Let's see now. A little of this and a little of that.

And this and that and this.

Well, I guess I better start looking

for that old beastie myself.

How about that, Scoob? A sandwich fit for a king.

Right.

Thanks, Shaggy.

Yummy!

That was low, Scoob. Really low.

'Raw fish?'

Raw fish? Oh, no!

Yuck!

Uh-huh, hot dogs. Now that's more like it.

Come on and dig in, Scoob. And bring Scrappy along.

Scrappy? Scrappy!

Scrappy!

Jeepers, I hope you don't

have to sell the stadium, Mr. Husai.

If I must, I must.

Luckily, I have other businesses around Tokyo

that need my attention.

Well, we've got our work cut out for us this time.

Come on.

[intense music]

- Scrappy? - 'In here, Uncle Scooby.'

(Scrappy) 'I'm gonna search every inch of this place'

until I get that dragon beast.

- And then he'll be sorry. - Come on.

What about the dragon beast, Uncle Scooby?

We gotta find him.

Hey, you found him, Uncle Scooby.

That was fast work.

Now, let's show him who's boss around here.

gulp

Scrappy, help!

'Shaggy!'

That's it, Uncle Scooby. Give him a left and a right.

Help!

splash

That's a good idea, Uncle Scooby.

Toning up your muscles so you can really splat him next time.

Come out and fight like a beast.

Or I'm comin' in to get ya.

Hey, he's gone!

Well, I guess I showed him.

Scooby! Scrappy!

Shaggy!

Scoob, where've you been?

We just fixed that old dragon beast.

[gulps] Like, does he have a dragon's head

long claws and beady little eyes?

Yeah, how'd you know?

[laughing nervously] Because, he's right behind ya.

Look!

Yikes!

You have been warned to stay away.

This is your final warning.

Y-y-yes, sir.

L-like, I'm a gratefully for a final warning.

Me too.

Okay, dragon beast. Prepare to be splatted.

With a capital 'S.'

[laughs]

[gasps] I don't believe it.

[laughing]

Like, it's every coward for himself.

Fred, Daphne, look over there.

(Fred) 'Who's there?'

(Velma) 'Stop! Come back!'

(Shaggy and Scooby) Gangway!

boink

Okay, we got you now.

Dragon beast, your haunting days are over.

I'm Ken Sumodo.

(Fred) 'The famous Japanese ball player?'

I was until Mr. Husai and I had disagreement

and he kicked me off team.

Now, it looks like this dragon beast

will force him out of business.

It serves him right.

Friendly guy.

Uh, Scooby, Scrappy's at it again.

Oh, no. Scrappy!

(Scrappy) Hmm, let's see.

If I were a dragon beast, where would I hide?

(Scooby) 'Scrappy, come back!'

Yikes!

boink

Hi, there, Uncle Scooby.

[buzzing]

Look! Help!

That's Scooby! I'm coming, pal.

Are you okay, Scoob?

Sure he's okay.

Nothing can hurt my big brave Uncle Scooby.

Right, Uncle Scooby?

[groaning] Right.

No wonder the lights were so bright.

These are special extra-brite bulbs.

Hmm. I think we're on to something. Come on, guys.

[chuckling] Like, I gotta tell you , Fred.

I'm really glad we're finally getting outta here.

Only to check into the hotel, Shaggy.

We'll be back tomorrow morning

to really check out this mystery.

Boy, oh, boy, this could be the best mystery ever.

Well, at least we're safe until morning, Scoob.

Yeah.

You are not safe anywhere, my friends.

[laughing]

[eerie music]

(Shaggy) 'Ah, nice and safe in our own room at last, eh, Scoob?'

Yeah, rice and safe.

[snoring]

A Scooby Scout is always prepared.

So I'm gonna fix a Scrappy trap.

Just in case that old dragon beast shows up.

Did you hear that Scoob?

Like what would the dragon beast be doing at a Tokyo hotel?

Yeah. He he he!

[grunting]

knock knock knock

Just a minute, I'm coming.

roar

It's for you.

Uh, okay, Scoob. Like, thanks.

roar

Zoinks! It's the dragon beast.

Just like I hoped. Now for my Scrappy trap.

- Scrappy! - Wake up, Scrappy!

slam

[both screaming]

I got him! Ta dadada ta daaa! Puppy power!

Did you see that? I got that old dragon beast.

Didn't I? Didn't I?

- 'Help! Get us outta here!' - 'Help! Help!'

Uh-oh.

What's going on?

The dragon beast!

(Fred) 'Come on, he's getting away!'

Let him, let him!

[upbeat music]

He went down this street!

Like, I thought we weren't gonna

chase this mystery until morning.

That was before the mystery started chasing us, Shag.

There he goes, into that fireworks factory.

Oh, boy, we're gonna splat him good.

(Shaggy) Like, uh, it's awfully dark in here.

Great! That dragon beast won't be able to see us

sneakin' up on him.

[Shaggy whimpering]

- That works both ways, Scrappy. - Yeah.

This will go faster if we split up.

We'll try this direction.

That just leaves us... in all this dark.

"Roman candles."

Well, candles are what we need no matter where they're from.

Look what I found, candles!

Hey, great! Like, that's just what we need.

(Scooby) 'Thanks, Scrappy.'

Look at all the boxes of fireworks.

And they're all marked "USA."

They're all going to America?

Hmm, maybe not, Daphne. It might mean something else.

Boy, these candles sure help, Scrappy.

They sure do. Look!

(both) Zoinks!

You failed to heed my warning.

Now you must pay!

Well, could you take these as a down payment, sir?

Okay, dragon, prepare to splat!

[sizzling]

[eerie music]

Well, he got away again.

How lucky can we get?

This is all starting to make sense now.

I think the last clue we'll need is back at the stadium.

(Velma) 'I've got a hunch that whatever's going on'

it has something to do with the baseball diamond trophy.

Mr. Husai?

What? Oh, oh. It is you.

- I thought it might be-- - The dragon beast. We know.

I am filling out forms now for the sale of the stadium.

Would you do us a favor first, Mr. Husai?

Will you make certain the baseball diamond

is still in the vault?

Well, uh, certainly.

It looks alright.

Oops!

Oh, it's okay. I've got it.

No damage done. Not even a scratch.

Please, I must get back to work now.

And we've got a dragon beast to catch.

Now, which locker did you find the dragon beast in?

This one, Shaggy. Number 13.

You want me to open it now

so you can grab him if he's there, huh?

No!

Like, haven't you heard, Scrappy? 13's an unlucky number.

Yeah, unlucky.

You betcha.

Unlucky for that old dragon beast

when I get my paws on him.

No, no! Like don't do it!

Oh, it's empty.

[laughing] Empty you say?

How about that, Scoob? Empty.

Yeah, empty.

knock knock knock

[laughing]

(Scooby) Yikes!

How about that? Uncle Scooby found a secret entrance.

Isn't he terrific?

Like, another fine mess you've gotten us into, Scoob.

(Scooby) 'Sorry, Shaggy!'

All the pieces fit perfectly. The only thing left--

You will not get away this time!

I think I see the end of the tunnel up ahead.

And the dragon beast?

Sorry, I don't see him.

Like, don't be sorry, Scrappy. That's perfectly alright.

Look!

What do you suppose that is?

Let's find out. Whee!

Let's not.

My patience has worn thin.

Hiya, Fred, Velma, Daphne.

Look out, you guys!

roar

Hey, it's the dragon beast.

Exactly! Ru-u-un!

I will get you for this.

Quick, after them.

Somebody, help!

[dragon beast screaming]

Wait, guys, look!

(Daphne) 'What are those two metal bands?'

The last pieces of the puzzle, Daphne.

We've got to capture that dragon beast.

Then what are we waiting for?

[dramatic music]

(Shaggy) 'That's it, Scoob. Lock it shut.'

knock knock knock

Oh, but now we can't get to him and splat him.

Better yet, he can't get to us and splat us.

Hey, he's here.

(Shaggy) 'And we're not. Ru-u-un!'

There is no escape.

(Shaggy) 'Well, well, well'

'it's about time you're getting out here DB.'

- You're late for practice. - Right. Here.

growl

None of your excuses, DB. Just show us what you can do.

Bat 'er up!

You got it, Shaggy!

Wait! No! Stop! Don't!

Okay, Daphne, now!

No, stop! Wait! No, no, please!

Hurray, we got him.

You have-a caught the dragon beast.

But, like, who is it?

It's simple when you put all the clues together.

He made his special appearances through the secret tunnel

under the pitcher's mound.

And used fireworks to create the dragon in the sky.

And the smokescreen.

The dragon and the smoke was projected

from the bright lights on the scoreboard

lit up in a dragon shape.

But the clincher was the boxes of fireworks in that warehouse.

We found these same metal bands in the tunnel.

And realized the trades weren't going to the USA.

They were from..

(Shaggy) 'Husai?'

(Fred) 'Right. Mr. Husai.'

He told us he had other businesses around Tokyo.

And we realized the fireworks factory was one of them.

- But, why? - Yeah, why?

I thought it must have something to do with the baseball diamond.

(Velma) And when I purposely dropped it against its glass case

I was certain.

(Fred) It didn't scratch the glass.

Meaning, it wasn't a diamond.

Mr. Husai had taken the real diamond long ago.

And was afraid the American team would discover the theft

'if they won the game and took the trophy home.'

So he tried to stop the game by scaring everybody off, wow!

Yeah, wow!

(Shaggy) 'Like, now that that's over, can we finally get some rest?'

And we'll need it..

...if we're gonna be awake

for tomorrow's ball game.

(Scrappy) Hey, wait! We got a surprise for you.

(Scooby) Yeah, a surprise.

swoosh

(Scooby) 'Scooby Dooby Doo!'

And Scrappy Dappy Doo!

swoosh

boom

- Whoops! Wrong rocket. - Yeah.
