Shaggy: Oh gee, like I have a bad feeling about this
Scooby: Ree roo.
[SCOOBY and SHAGGY advance through the station. As they turn a corner they see the 'nuclear power' ghost.]
Shaggy: Zoinks! Run Scoob!

Super: Well something's come up now. Some kids and their dog have captured a ghost down at the old PowerStation.
[Bob and Dave look at each other]

[Fred and the gang finish explaining their theory to Bob and Dave]
Fred: Mr Phillips was so scared of us finding out about his nuclear weapons deal with the government, that he dressed up as the nuclear power ghost to scare us away.
Bob: Huh. And I thought he was just glue sniffing!
[They look at each other and snigger]
Dave: Alright then chum. Off to the police station with you!
Phillips: [To the camera] I would have gotten away with it too if it weren't for you blasted kids! [winks]
Dave: Hey, what's this all about?
Gang: Ha ha ha hah ha! [As if the episode is ending]
Bob: But . . .
Scooby: Roooby dooby dooooo!
Bob: Watch it you lot. You're starting to freak me out!
Fred: Sorry Mr Louis. We thought the episode was ending.
Dave: Ha! You've got to be joking. We've still got another [looks at his watch] 28 minutes and 30 seconds left.
Bob: I've got 35 seconds here.
Dave: Your watch is slow.
INT - BIRMINGHAM POLICE STATION
[Bob, Dave and Mystery Inc sit in the canteen eating (Or in Shaggy and Scooby's case guzzling)]
Dave: [To Shaggy] You watch it mate. You could get indigestion.
Shaggy: I've never got indigestion in a whole show.
Scooby: Re neither
Bob: (Frowns) I thought this was our show!
Scooby: Ro! Rit's mine!
Bob and Dave: Ours! It's our show.
Scooby: Rit's mine! (Bares his teeth)

Scooby: Rikes!
Shaggy: Zoinks!
Velma: Jinkies!
Daphne: Jeepers!
Fred: Help! [Everyone looks at him]
Bob: Help? What sort of phrase is that?
Fred: No much as a phrase as agh!
Dave: He's right.
Reporter: Evening governor.
Bob: Governor? Listen that wasn't my fault! (Laughter track)
Dave: Don't worry Bob, it's only that Reporter that pestered us about that 'beast of Hackney Marshes'
Scooby: (Typically) Reast? Rikes!
Bob: Yeah. It turned out to be him, in a bear costume.
Velma: Hey! That sounds like one of our mysteries!
Reporter: Oh really? Opin' to knock Briggs and Louis off the front page?
Dave: We never were on the front page! (Laughter track) Were we?
Reporter: Cause' I've heard that the 'Beast of Hackney Marshes' has returned.
Bob: We told you before. There are more bears down the back of my sofa! (Laughter track)
Dave: He hasn't got a sofa remember?
Reporter: Yeah yeah. But there are rumours that it's still out there! And it's an actual monster!
Scooby: Ronster! Ro nnoooooo! (Howls)

Super: Hello boys. Louis, what is a dog doing in the canteen? It's very unhygienic.
Scooby: Ray!
Reporter: (pops up) Hello
Super: What are you doing? You need permission to be in this canteen.
Reporter: Yeah, well I want to know what you're going to do about the beast of Hackney Marshes.
Super: Briggs and Louis wrapped that case up long ago didn't they?
Reporter: Do you want me ter quote you on that sir? A beast is roamin' around the marshes and you've already written it off?
Fred: (Stands up) We'll do it!
Dave: No you won't (Pushes him back down) We'll handle it sir.
Bob: No we won't!

Mystery In: They are! Bob + Dave: We are!

Bob: But they're not coppers sir!
Super: They'll be a bit like you then won't they? (Laughter track)
