Any progress, Eric?

Sorry, Professor Kaufman. There's still

something wrong with the program.

We can't do any more experiments

with the laser until you boys fix it.

We know. We know.

Hey, wait! I've found something.

- What?

- Who turned on the laser?

Not me!

- Shut it down!

- I can't! It's not responding!

- What is that?

- I was hoping you'd know, professor.

- He's absorbing all our computer data.

- Call security!

- Like, are we there yet, Fred?

- I told you, Shaggy, soon.

But you said that an hour ago, man.

It's so impressive that Eric got

a grant for his computer project.

Doesn't surprise me. Back in high school, he

practically lived in the computer lab. Right, Velma?

- Yeah. He's one smart cookie.

- Cookie? Cookie?!

Sorry, Scooby. Figure of speech.

Cheer up, Scoob. When we get there,

we'll get to play the game Eric designed.

- I bet it's way cooler than this one.

- Yeah, cooler!

Imagine a computer game starring all of us!

Solving mysteries in cyberspace.

Like, I hope I do better

on Eric's game than this one.

Where do you think you're going?

To visit our friend Eric Staufer.

He's a student here.

Not if you're not on my list.

It should be under "Fred Jones".

- Is this whole group with you?

- Yes, sir.

- Including the dog?

- Dog? Where?

There you are.

But just so you know...

...I don't like a bunch of punks

running around my university.

- Your university?

- It might as well be.

I've been here for 20 years. There's

never been any trouble on my watch.

I'm the head of security.

Wembley's the name.

- Twenty years is an impressive record.

- You bet it is.

I want to make sure that it stays...

A wise guy, eh?

I'm keeping a special eye

on you, pooch!

Pooch?

- Like, Scooby's just playing, officer.

- Yeah, sorry.

We just need some help

finding the computer lab.

The lab is three buildings

down on the left.

- Thanks.

- And keep your dog off the grass.

Wow, Eric, this lab

is one groovy setup.

We like it too.

You don't want to eat those.

Because they're grown in radioactive soil.

Zoinks!

- Everyone, this is my lab partner, Bill McLemore.

- Nice to meet you.

Thanks for keeping Shaggy and Scooby

from glowing in the dark.

- We'll go to dinner after the tour.

- But first, can you show us your new video game?

Scoob and I have been dying to play it.

No one is playing the game

until we get rid of our problem.

Professor Kaufman, I'd like you to meet the

mystery gang I based my game on.

- Oh, hi!

- Nice to meet you.

The famous Mystery, Inc.

And that's Scooby-Doo.

It looks like you showed up

just in time for a mystery.

- A mystery?

- Why? What happened?

This is a hyper-energy laser.

We've been using it to break down actual objects

and project them into cyberspace.

Jinkies! You mean you can transport objects

from the real world into the computer world?

- Precisely, young lady.

- That's fantastic!

It was, until the laser beamed

a monster into our world last night.

A monster?!

Yes, the laser beamed a computer virus

right here into this lab.

A really freaky-looking thing.

He erased all the computers' data

by just walking near them.

This virus is also able to control

and manipulate electrical objects.

- But where did it come from?

- Eric's computer game.

Computer viruses don't just appear.

They have to be created by someone.

- But I didn't create it!

- I'm sure it wasn't Mr. Staufer.

But whoever created this virus

is in serious trouble.

Our civilization is

so dependent on technology...

...that this virus is a threat

to the entire world.

Can you show us how the laser works?

You can show the demo,

but don't start the game!

Yes, sir.

Like, check it out! We're digital!

Yeah! Digital!

We used the game to extrapolate

3- D data into quantum particles.

- Of course, it's so simple!

- It is?

He used the Scooby game as the location in

cyberspace to store physical objects.

- And you're sure the virus came from the game?

- Unfortunately, yes.

There's no virus in my baseball game,

and it's more entertaining.

Batter up!

Strike one!

- Now, this is a game you can get into.

- That's really cool, Bill.

- I'm a huge baseball fan myself.

- You have good taste, Fred.

- I think it's the greatest sport in the world.

- Baseball's okay...

- ... but it doesn't have Scooby and me in it.

- That's right!

The Scooby game has 10 levels.

You battle monsters or villains...

...while trying to find

Scooby Snacks on each level.

Oh, boy! Scooby Snacks!

Okay, Professor.

Now, check out the monitor.

- Cool!

- Jinkies!

I wouldn't believe it

if I didn't see it with my own eyes!

Like, I don't believe it either.

We didn't even get one Scooby Snack.

Eric and Bill are sure to win

the $250,000 grand prize...

- ... at the international science fair.

- Wow, that's some prize.

It'll be a reward for their talent

and hard work on the laser project.

We couldn't have done it without you, prof.

Kaufman. You should share the reward too.

No, no. As a teacher,

being able to guide young minds...

...to their full potential

is reward enough, Eric.

Speaking of rewards, is it possible to get

the Scooby Snacks out of the game?

- Groovy!

- Oh, boy!

- Hey, that's mine!

- No, mine!

Mine!

Is that the way the virus

came out of the game, Eric?

Yeah. It was pretty scary.

If it's just a computer virus,

what harm can it do in our world?

From what we observed the last night,

this virus has the potential...

...to steal every

computer program in the world.

And the virus made the telephone

come to life, which attacked Eric.

It kept coming toward us

and we couldnt't stop it.

When I held up a magnetic bar

in defense...

... it seemed to have

an adverse effect on the virus.

Yeah. It seemed like the magnet weakened

him. Like kryptonite to Superman.

- Wow!

- Creepy!

The security guards checked the campus,

but couldn't find him anywhere.

I suspect that he is still

in this building somewhere.

Still here?

No more arguing, boys.

So what can we do to help, Eric?

If you can lure the Phantom Virus

into the lab...

...I can use the laser to beam him

back into cyberspace.

Great. Like, you want us

to be virus bait?

- Like, no way, man.

- Uh-uh.

Would you do it for a Scooby Snack?

Hold on, Scoob. Only one Scooby Snack

to go chase a phantom?

I don't think so.

What if I gave you each

two Scooby Snacks?

Okay, you got a deal.

Go long, guys!

This place is so big, we'll probably

never see this virus anyway.

How do we capture the Phantom Virus

once we find him?

The Phantom Virus is composed

of electromagnetic energy.

Get close enough to him

with one of these super-magnets...

...and it will render him helpless.

Be careful, Scooby.

Those are pretty strong magnets.

Sorry!

- Now let's really put them to the test.

- I knew I could count on you guys.

This building is so big!

This Phantom Virus could be anywhere.

I think we stand a better chance

of finding it if we split up.
