Reception

Even for classic episodes of Scooby-doo, the first mystery by Chris Duffy is too obvious, and the running gag of sleeping Velma gets old really fast. The second mystery however prints with a red herring and an unexpected solution hinted at during the beginning. Joe Staton of course does a smashing storyboard.
