Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders Page #3

Now, move out!

And take your dogs with you!

Dogs? Where?

Come on, let's go.

Neanderthals!

- Bunch of hippies.

- I wish we really could bust them.

- Hang on.

- What?

- What are you doing?

- I want to go back.

What for?

Shaggy, I have a confession to make.

You got a boyfriend?

No, nothing like that.

I'm not really a nature photographer.

- You're not?

- No.

I'm really a government agent.

I was sent by the government

to investigate alien sightings in this area.

I knew this was too good to be true.

We need your help.

I hope this doesn't change anything

between us.

Amber is a government-trained canine,

Scooby. Is that all right?

Right.

Then you guys will help us?

You guys are the coolest!

Thanks for showing us around, Max.

No problem.

It was nice to meet people who think

we're doing something worthwhile.

- It's Lester.

- We'll catch a ride with him.

Okay. Well, it was nice meeting you all.

Same here, thanks.

Bye-bye. Thanks.

What are you kids up to?

Just taking in the sights.

Can you give us a lift to Scorpion Ridge?

Why, sure. Hop in.

I was headed in that direction

to do some painting anyway.

They sure were nice back there.

I don't know if I could do a job like that,

day in and day out.

- Maybe they can't either.

- What are you talking about?

Did you notice that

they all had dried mud on their shoes?

Come to think of it, yeah.

Yeah. So?

Where would there be mud around here?

Especially if you work in that clean facility

all day and night.

Good point.

And all that motor oil

Max said was for the SALF dishes...

It's the wrong kind for hydraulics.

That's right.

Do you think they're up to something?

I'd bet my teeth on it!

Looks like they're headed

for Scorpion Ridge.

I wonder what they're looking for.

You'd better call it in.

Right.

- What are we supposed to be looking for?

- Don't really know. Clues, I guess.

Where did you and Scooby

first see the aliens?

Over there.

That's where the jackalope went in

and we saw a glow inside.

A glow?

I guess that's a clue?

I don't see any glow.

- Maybe you can't see it during the day.

- I thought I heard something.

Over here.

Kind of like being

on a buckin' bronco, eh, girls?

- Yeah!

- Kind of.

How you doing back there, young fella?

Just great.

Couldn't be better.

Isn't that the mechanic we saw earlier?

Mr. Sunshine?

Hello.

Have you had a chance

to look at our van yet?

No. I'll get to it this afternoon.

Okay. We'd sure appreciate it. Thank you.

- I think he was much nicer this time.

- What is he doing out here?

I don't know, but he sure is suspicious.

I don't trust him. He's a little tetched.

I know I heard something.

A rattler!

I hate this place! Come on.

That was a close one.

Far out! Do that again, Scooby!

I'm telling you, we make a great team.

I hear that.

Okay, that's enough, Scoob.

What?

Quit trying to scare...

Come back!

The snake is harmless!

Watch out for them MPs around here.

They're meaner than a bull with toothache.

Thanks for the warning.

And the ride!

- No problem.

- 'Bye.

Did you notice the green paint

on Lester's hands?

Well, he is a painter, Freddy.

Why did you want him to drop us off here?

I think those SALF scientists

were near water.

Because they had dried mud

on their shoes, right?

Right, and the only place I think

that would have mud is the gorge.

There might be a river at the bottom.

What are we waiting for? Let's go.

- I think I see something ahead.

- Like, the exit, I hope.

That's the glow we saw last night.

Right before the aliens!

Come on, guys. Quit fooling around!

- Wait for us!

- Yeah! Wait!

I don't see any water.

So much for my theory!

Looks like the river's been dry for years.

Are those tracks?

Yeah, sure looks like it.

These rocks are wet!

Where did these piles come from?

Let's see.

Looks like some kind of mine.

This looks familiar.

Looks like you were right, Velma.

There's definitely something going on here.

- What is it, Velma?

- I think it's...

Gold!

Scoob, old buddy,

I think we've hit the jackpot!

We're rich!

Rich!

We can buy our own food court!

Yeah! Scooby Snax, too!

Scooby Snax? Hey buddy,

with this much gold, we can buy...

...a Scooby Snax Factory!

Yeah! Yeah!

Guys...

...I hate to break the news to you but...

Man. It looks like someone else

was here first!

Looks like it.

There goes our Scooby Snax Factory.

So, who do you think owns all this gold?

Aliens!

Aliens? What would aliens want

with gold?

Ask them, Shaggy.

- You monsters!

- You won't get away with this!

Silence, earthlings!

You should not have interfered.

You can give up

the hokey alien charade now, Steve.

You figured it out?

Wasn't hard.

It doesn't matter now.

Why would scientists like you do this?

Are you kidding? Do you have any idea

how much gold is down here?

You three give scientists a bad name.

You should be doing your jobs

instead of looking for gold.

I was doing my job

when I stumbled onto this mine.

What do you mean?

One day I was looking for a site

to place a fourth SALF dish...

... at the east end of Scorpion Ridge...

... when I stumbled on an opening

to a small cave.

We went back later with some equipment

and explored the cave.

I'm sure you can guess what we found.

The mother of all mother lodes!

And best of all,

no one knew about it but the three of us.

But I still don't see

how you could have dug all this out.

We didn't.

This was a mine in the 1800s.

It was abandoned when the miners thought

it was all played out.

If they'd have dug ten more feet...

...they would have discovered all this gold.

Their loss is our gain.

We found that these caverns run

from Scorpion Ridge to the SALF Station.

But since all this property belongs

to the government...

We decided to mine it for ourselves

and not report it.

We hired two friends to help us

fence off the area as government property.

The fake MPs?

Exactly!

They guard the area

while we mine the caves in shifts.

And you keep your easy jobs

at the SALF Station.

You're pretty smart, Velma.

Too bad you've made your last deduction.

Are you all right, Scooby?

Shaggy?

I don't know why worms like this stuff.

That was one mean slide!

I'll say. Where are we anyway?

So what's with the alien costumes?

Something to scare the locals

so they don't come snooping around.

It also explains the mysterious sounds

of our drilling and blasting.

But the townspeople said

they saw spaceships.

We bought this chopper

with some of the gold money.

And we dressed it up to look like a UFO.

It's amazing what a few lights

and a Hollywood sound effects CD can do.

How do you like our spaceship interior?

Everyone falls for it.

Especially your friends.

It's a sweet setup.

We even make money off the cattle

we steal at night to spook the local yokels.

See? I knew it was all a fake!

It doesn't help you now.

Let's get out of here.

We came to see if you're all right.
