Quickly

The gang joins Penn and Teller in investigating a haunted hotel on the verge of demolition.

Thoughts, Details and Recap

A couple of workers are setting charges in a building that's to be demolished the next day. They set a 12 hour timer on the charge. I don't know much about demolition but this feels like an insanely dangerous way to to this especially since people are scheduled to spend the night at the hotel. They are scared off by a ghost.

The gang is in Las Vegas to spend the night in the haunted hotel for a chance to win a million dollars. They meet Penn and Teller. They are all locked into the hotel. They watch a video by the owner of the hotel. Penn waxes poetic about the joy of being fooled and scared. They are scared out of the room by a ghost.

In one hallway, there's a painting referencing the "Indian witch doctor" from Decoy for a Dognapper from the first season of Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!.

They go to the theater to investigate. The stage is set for Professor Markson's show, the ghost that haunts the hotel. The cabinet on the stage transforms the ghost into a rabbit monster. The rabbit monster chases them. Penn and Velma trap the rabbit monster but he escapes.

The gang goes to the Penthouse to meet the hotel owner offering them a million dollars. He disappears amid screaming before they can meet him.

They gang and Penn and Teller contrive a plan to capture the ghost using a show as bait. The trap goes wrong when Teller is knocked into the magic box. He vanishes and the rabbit appears in his place.

Fred is thrown into the detonation timer (Not safe). The timer glitches and resets to one minute. Gee, golly gosh, who would think a timer would be dangerous. They all escape. The rabbit monster is unmasked to reveal Teller. 

Teller speaks his only lines at the end of the episode to explain that he did it all to trick Penn. Penn is amazed. He compliments Teller for his work. Fred refuses the million dollars because Teller was the last to leave the hotel. The rest of the gang is not happy.
