Scooby-Doo! and Guess Who? - Peebles' Pet Shop of Terrible Terrors!
Season 1, Episode 3
Quickly
The gang and Wanda Sykes investigate a monster at a pet shop.
Thoughts, Details and Recap
Wanda Sykes and Mr. Peebles, a pet shop owner, are attacked by a monstrous lanternfish.
Scooby is starving for Scooby Snacks. The shape of the Scooby Snacks in this series are irregularly shaped ovals or circles. The gang stops in Peebles' Pet shop to fulfill Scooby's desire. They rescue Wanda Sykes from beneath a collapsed shelf. Wanda and Scooby greet each other warmly. They recount their meeting at a dog show. How did Scooby get to the dog show? He can't drive.
They immediately get to work investigating. They find a giant egg that appears to have hatched.
Arnie, the bookkeeper shows up and throws the gang out of the shop just as Velma discovers discrepancies in the books. They reenter through a window. It's unlocked by someone inside. There's a lot of chasing in this episode. The fun kind of chasing with detours and jokes.
I like the monster design better than the Swamp Monster. It has a little more visual interest.
Wanda is abducted by the fish monster. They find the book keeper stuck to the wall with green goo. Scooby is motivated to hunt the monster to save his friend. Scooby and Shaggy find Wanda stuck to the wall.
Fred's trap fails. The board over the quicksand kitty litter fish tank breaks and traps Scooby, Shaggy and Wanda. They're saved by Magilla Gorilla. Magilla traps the lanternfish monster.
They unmask the monster to find Mr. Peebles. He blames Magilla. Arnie isn't actually a bad guy. He takes over the pet shop. Wanda adopts Magilla and a cat.
Magilla's special appearance is one done right. I haven't seen the Magilla Gorilla Show recently so I didn't remember Mr. Peebles. I did not anticipate Magilla and when he appeared it made me laugh.
