Marcie[1] Fleach[2], better known as "Hot Dog Water", is a friend and former rival of Velma Dinkley. Her cruel nickname supposedly comes from smelling like recycled water used to cook hot dogs.
She was sent to prison for trying to close down an amusement park, was eventually released early, then worked for Mr. E. During this time she befriended Velma, gaining membership into Mystery Incorporated as a mole and temporarily replacing Daphne Blake. When Daphne returned she was forced to leave and continued working for Mr. E. Sent to Mount Diabla to retrieve a piece of Planispheric Disk, she handed the piece to the gang because she couldn't betray Velma, her only friend. Since then she went into hiding, but still manages to help Mystery Inc. in an elaborate scheme, infiltrating Mr. E's vault and stealing his pieces of the Planispheric Disks.
Physical appearance
Marcie is a teenaged Caucasian female, with brown hair, which is usually very messy, in loose, curly waves. She wears red-rimmed, armless glasses, with yellow lenses. She also wears a brown Jacket, a red skirt, striped socks and matching red shoes.
Personality
Originally, she was very competitive with Velma, having a mutual strong disliking of one another. This changed, however, when they bonded after both working for Mr. E. When she got cruelly kicked out, Marcie became sad and lonely, yet was still loyal towards Velma and thought of her as a friend.
Skills and abilities
She is good with computers, and a brilliant amateur chemist.
History
Early life
She had competed with Velma in the science fair circuit more than once, and lost.
Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated
Season one
She danced with the Class President while under the influence of Aphrodite's potion.
She went on an exchange student trip to China, where she had an allergic reaction to the gluten in the noodles.
She attacked people at Creepy Spooky Terror Land in the guise of the Manticore in order to shut it down so she could use the steel in the rides to make super-helium and get rich. (Her father, Winslow Fleach, owned the amusement park).
Season two
She claimed she was released early from prison because she improved the computer system there to be more harsh. This may not be the whole truth; Mr. E most likely had something to do with it as well as he was the one who bailed her out. (The House of the Nightmare Witch)
She helped the gang solve the Crybaby Clown mystery. (The Night the Clown Cried II - Tears of Doom!)
She was kicked out of the gang after Daphne came back, despite Velma's protests. Upset, she went back to working with Mr. E. (Web of the Dreamweaver!)
She and her father attended the "Welcome Home Brad and Judy" party at the Blake Mansion. Velma saw her and waved at her. (The Hodag of Horror)
Mr. E sent her to Mount Diabla to search the Spanish Galleon there for its piece of the Planospheric disk. She disguised
herself as the Dark Lilith to lure the gang to the mountain and get past the traps for her, but gave them the disk piece after Velma caught her. (Night on Haunted Mountain)
Velma Dinkley later enlisted her to help steal the Planosperic Disk pieces that Mr. E had acquired. Marcie's job was to infiltrate Mr. E's vault and grab the pieces while Jason Wyatt kept him distracted with the Krampus. (Wrath of the Krampus)
Captured by Pericles, she was used as a hostage to force the gang to open the inter-dimensional portals for him. She managed to grab Pericles as a hostage after the Air door was opened, and heroically sacrificed her life, being shot many times by the Kriegstaffebots, to give them a head start. Velma and Scooby were especially saddened.
Post-Nibiru
When the gang created an alternate timeline with no influence of the Evil Entity, Marcie was alive and she and Velma are a team and win every year at the Tri-state Olympiad of Science. They are best friends and Marcie refers to Velma happily as "That's my girl."
