[The scene opens in the Mystery Machine, parked but shaking with laughter. Scooby, Shaggy, and Scrappy-Doo are huddled around a set of printed dumb laws, with a plate of sandwiches beside them.] Reader: Gang, check these out. First up, in North Carolina, it's illegal to sing off-key. [Shaggy, holding a sandwich, stops mid-bite.] Shaggy: Like, man, imagine getting arrested for just being a bad shower singer! Scooby: Rehe! Rhat's ridiculous! [Chuckles.] [Scrappy is holding a tiny gavel like he's a judge.] Scrappy: Let it be known, if you can't hit those notes, you're in treble, I mean, trouble! [They all burst out laughing.] Reader: And get this--in Alabama, wearing fake mustaches in church is banned because it might cause laughter. Shaggy: Zoinks! Guess my fake mustache collection will have to stay home on Sundays, huh? Scooby: Rhoo would raugh rat a mustache? [Scooby puts a sandwich half under his nose like a mustache, causing more laughter.] Scrappy: As the judge here, I decree laughter in church leads to... a sentence of silliness! [They giggle, then I continue.] Reader: Oh, and in Hartford, Connecticut, dogs need a mayor's signed permit to hang out in groups of more than three on private property. [They stare at each other in disbelief, then Scooby speaks up.] Scooby: Rs mayor Rooby Roo, I rive rermission! [Shaggy laughs hysterically.] Shaggy: Imagine Scoob here, signing permits. "Dear Mr. Mayor, I promise we're only planning a tail-wagging, not a tail-chasing." Scrappy, puffing his chest out and trying to sound official: And as your legal advisor, I'll make sure every paw print is legally binding! Reader: What do you think they do at dog meetings? Plan the perfect heist on the neighbor's cat? [Shaggy daydreams aloud.] Shaggy: Picture it, Scooby leading a group of dogs--wearing berets and discussing art, all with proper permits, of course. Scooby, getting into character: Re, rand Riscussing rhe rbest way to steal sandwiches! [Everyone laughs. Shaggy then imitates a dog with a deep voice.] Shaggy: 'Fellow canines, we gather here today, with the mayor's approval, to plot our next great adventure: The Quest for the Ultimate Bone.' [Everyone is in tears laughing, Scrappy slaps his knee.] Scrappy: Those laws sound like they were made by the real villains, trying to keep us pups from our snacks and laughs! We need a mystery machine, just to solve why these laws exist! [They all nod, chuckling and shaking their heads.] Reader: There you have it, gang. That's the world we live in. [They slowly calm down, wiping away tears of laughter.] Shaggy: Man, I wouldn't last a day without breaking those laws. Scooby, putting his paws around Shaggy and Scrappy: Ris okay, Raggy! We'll break them together! [They all share a hearty laugh as the Mystery Machine drives off into the sunset, off to find more mysteries and, possibly, more dumb laws.] [End Scene]
