The mystery team crying, trying to solve the mystery of who left Scooby in the hot van with the windows up.

This is awful. Just plain awful.

The logic of this makes no sense. Scooby clearly demonstrates basic intelligence and sentience throughout every official iteration of the show. Combined with cartoon logic, he would likely just comically zoom out of there once he realizes that he can indeed operate door handles, or that there is some sort of Scooby snack or STACKED sandwich somewhere outside. So even if there would be a joke about Scooby realizing he doesn’t have the opposable thumbs to operate the door handles (even though dogs IRL have demonstrated they can open more complex door handles, latches, and other mechanisms,) Scooby could also just punch a Scooby-sized hole in the van to get to his prized hobby of eating.

A far more realistic “dark” take would be something akin to who made Scooby sick by feeding him so much food that’s bad for dogs, though again I’d argue he’s demonstrated an iron stomach.

Ruh Roh!

Did you watch the episode where they neutered him?

My favorite part of your dark episode is the laugh track playing when he gets into Daphne's chocolate. Oh Scoob, you rapscallion!

At least at the end he gets to meet Don Knotts up in the afterlife. He even has a great one liner ready for it!

Ruh roh Raggy! Im dying heat roke! hueahhuheehe!
