With Scooby and Shaggy gorging themselves at the food court, Fred, Velma and Daphne scoured the mall for the perfect birthday gift for the perfect dog.

"Well?" Velma asked, holding up a gift for the gang's scrutiny.

Fred examined it carefully. "Hmmm…I like it!"

"Perfect," Daphne remarked excitedly. "I think he'll love it!"

The trio, taking advantage of Maria's offer, took the gift and hid it in the Mystery Machine before meeting Shaggy and Scooby for a peaceful, robot-free meal.
