Professor Emmanuel Raffalo was a science teacher at Crystal Cove High School. He used his Slime Mutant disguise to rob the town's bank.
Physical appearance[]
He wears thick-framed glasses, has black hair with gray streaks, a mustache and a goatee. He wears a lab coat.
Personality[]
Professor Raffalo took his job seriously, as evident by his lack of amusement of his science class referring to photosynthesis as "plant farts". Of course, it didn't stop him from being selfish and greedy enough to rob the town bank, even going as far as faking his own capture to throw the gang off his trail and framing Franklin Fruitmeir for the crime. He also cast himself as an angry individual when he dismissively replied to Daphne Blake's question, regarding a locket.[1]
History[]
Early life[]
Insert details here. (Web of the Dreamweaver!)
Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated[]
Season one[]
Mystery Inc. brought one of the Slime Mutant's victims in the middle of one his classes for him to look at, ending it abruptly when his students saw the state of the victim, causing them to flee in fear. He told them the person was encased in a dehydrated cocoon. They left him to study the victim further. Once school had ended, he continued his investigation. During his work, he was attacked by the Slime Mutant, becoming yet another victim of its glowing green liquid.
Professor Raffalo unmasked.
When Professor Raffalo had been unmasked as the beast himself, he explained that while collecting mold spores for his class, he discovered Crystal Cove's cave system connected to the sewer by accident. When he realized the cave lead directly under the bank, he hatched his plan of robbing it. He dressed up as the Slime Mutant to scare people away so he could rob the bank (because of his low teacher's salary) without any interference with Fruitmeir's granting him secret access to the sewer and then planned to frame Franklin Fruitmeir for the crime due to the fact that he'd used Fruitmeir's dessert as the Slime Mutant's slime for his plan. Professor Raffalo also set up his own 'attack' so no one would suspect him of being the Slime Mutant and cast doubt on any hint of his involvement. When asked about the locket by Daphne Blake, he claimed to have never seen it before.[1]
One of the photos of Velma Dinkley Jason Wyatt had on his bedroom wall contained a newspaper clipping of crime with the title stating "Meddling Kids Foil Monster Scam".[2]
Season two[]
Professor Raffalo had been sent to the local prison, which was one day attacked by Krampus when he kidnapped another convict, Mary Anne Gleardan.[3]
Post-Nibiru[]
When the Evil Entity's power source, the crystal sarcophagus, was destroyed, a black hole was created, sucking it in. This caused a chain reaction, altering reality for all of Crystal Cove, leaving the town unaffected by its negative influence and therefore Professor Raffalo didn't try to scam the town as the Slime Mutant.[4]
