Be Cool, Scooby-Doo!

Fred is excited to visit a famous high-security prison

The episode titled If You Can't Scooby‑Doo the Time, Don't Scooby‑Doo the Crime is presented as a programme in the format of a single episode. It falls under the broad genre of an episode‑type show, and the title itself hints at a playful take on mystery‑solving conventions. In this instalment, Fred finds himself thrilled at the prospect of touring a high‑security prison. His enthusiasm is palpable as he looks forward to experiencing the austere environment and the unique atmosphere that such a fortified facility can offer. However, the visit takes an unexpected turn when the spirit of a former inmate makes its presence known, disrupting the planned tour. The apparition does not simply appear; it actively creates complications for Fred and the others involved. The ghost’s interference transforms what began as an excited inspection into a situation fraught with supernatural trouble. This clash between Fred’s initial excitement and the unsettling activities of the lingering inmate forms the core tension of the episode, driving the narrative forward while keeping the focus firmly on the encounter between the living visitors and the restless spectre.
