Be Cool, Scooby-Doo! - Into the Mouth of Madcap

Season 1, Episode 24

Premiered June 20, 2017

Quickly

Daphne babysits.

Thoughts, Details and Recap

The gang is joined by Wayne on a trip to the boardwalk. Wayne is the son of Andrea. Daphne offered to babysit. 

The title of the episode is a reference to the John Carpenter film "In the Mouth of Madness" so that's foreboding.

The owner warns them to not mention clowns because a couple were recently attacked by Madcap. Madcap was a clown at the Loony Park. He eludes to a history of murder ("Madcap took the saying "Slaying them with laughter" a little too literally."). Fred is abandoned by Daphne for babysitting and Velma due to her Coulrophobia. Daphne takes Wayne on the most dangerous roller coaster ever constructed. There are no safety restraints. Not even a bar.

Shaggy and Scooby enjoy the park until they are attacked by Madcap, a cross between Ronald McDonald and IT with a giant mallet. Shaggy continues defending clowns after he and Scooby and Daphne and Velma are attacked by Madcap.

The capture Madcap and unmask another clown they saw throughout the episode, Oopsy. Wayne finally speaks up and somewhat rudely recaps the episode. The police tell them they don't know what to charge him with. Attempted murder, assault and and destruction of property would seem like good options to me but the issue is resolved by the Clown Police who have jurisdiction.
