It's Scooby in Space!
Thoughts, Details and Recap
The gang joins Bill Nye in testing his experimental space voyager. Shaggy and Scooby instantly regret this before they even get to the monster. They take it to the Multinational Space Station.
When they get inside, the crew is missing. They find Neil DeGrasse Tyson locked in. He informs them about a monster tardigrade. The fact that two people were taken by the tardigrade means we already know who the tardigrade is. Captives are rare in Scooby-Doo.
Shaggy and Scooby wander off and get attacked by the Tardigrade that disappears because the people behind it really don't have a plan. They use a floating ball to track the monster but this doesn't actually help because they don't have a plan. So everyone goes to investigate anyway.
They find a member of the crew working and there are two bags with floating goo coming of them. Bad. That can cause trouble the electronics.
I waited the entire episode for an obvious Alien reference and I got it. Scooby thinks there's something in his suit. For a second it looks like a chestburster but it's just his tail. They also tagline drop "In Space no one can hear you scream.". Neil DeGrasse Tyson adds that no one can hear you explode either.
The trap goes wrong and Shaggy and Scooby are nearly blown out an airlock. They force the tardigrade monster out the airlock. Velma insists they go after it. Considering every monster has been a human, that's sensible.
They land back on Earth with help from the Mystery Machine.
Anyway, it's the two guys from the beginning in the oddest and most uncomfortably tight design for a suit since Tik-Tok on Return to Oz. The kidnapped guys were the tardigrade.
Solid episode.
