Revision as of 11:11, 11 February 2018
Party Like It's 1899 is the eighth episode of season 1 of Be Cool, Scooby-Doo!
Premise
Daphne is thrilled to go to the Annual Monster Mystery Party, but there may be a real monster on the loose—one without a head.
Synopsis
At Wuthering Manor, Lord Randolph and Lady Pipi Wuthering are preparing for the Annual Monster Mystery Party, where people solve a pretend mystery. The mystery will be based on the terrible incident that happened in the manor years ago. While the kitchen maid is dusting, a headless monster appeared from the mirror and drags her through it.
The gang are on their way to the manor, Daphne and Fred are looking forward to solving a mystery without real danger, but Shaggy and Scooby believe scary places are where scary things happen, and Velma is not sure considering they solve real mysteries all the time.
Upon waiting in the banquet hall, Daphne meets up with her childhood friend Bradwick Haverall. Randolph and Pipi then explain they have to solve the mystery of the Headless Count, while pretending to be their assigned characters or be disqualified and sent to their rooms. Daphne portrayed Queen Victoria of England, Bradwick portrayed King Steve of England, Fred portrayed bumbling Police Constable Jerry, Velma portrayed Flumsy the scullery maid, Shaggy portrayed Wickle the chimney sweep, Scooby portrayed Lady Bethabeth and finally Collander the butler portrayed Peppermill the butler.
When the game starts, Fred and Velma aren't too happy about their characters. Being a bumbling police officer means Fred has to be bad at solving mysteries on purpose or he'll be disqualified. The Headless Count then takes victim #1 Dame Bernice.
The count who turns out to be Collander, rests on a couch not very happy about his role as well. Then the real Headless Count takes him away, which Fred witnessed and realizes that there's a real monster on the loose.
Fred tries to warn everyone what he saw, but they all think it's part of the game. Fred asked Daphne to search for clues together, but she decrees the queen can solve the mystery herself. Shaggy and Scooby found a book on the floor, which Lady Pipi declares they found the first clue, much to Fred's disappointment. The book's titled, The Windowless Room, but Daphne decrees the real clue is the author, Carrie Wood. They went off to investigate their own clues, while Shaggy and Scooby found that the bookshelf reveals a secret passageway. Since they're pretending to be Wickle and Lady Bethabeth, they think it makes it pretend dark and scary.
Bradwick asks if he and Daphne could team-up, but Daphne thinks she can solve the mystery herself. She changes her mind, however, when Bradwick shows her the Hall of Master Sleuths, where he had solved the Wuthering's mystery five years in a row. They started with her Carrie Wood clue; one carries wood to a fireplace and believes someone tried to burn evidence, they agreed to split-up and check the fireplaces and meet back in the hall.
Fred thinks there's a real Headless Count in the manor, so he decided to visit Dame Bernice to see if everyone's following the rules. He finds her room in a mess with empty jewelry boxes and strangely Luxury Limo Rentals keys.
Meanwhile, Velma continues her duties washing dishes.
Shaggy and Scooby find that the Headless Count can go anywhere in the manor with the secret passageways and think without real danger they're pretty good at solving mysteries. Then the real Headless Count shows up, but they think he's not real and began teasing him, until he disappears when the other guests arrive. Scooby finds a feather that didn't come from anything in the room, to which Lady Pipi declares they have found the second clue.
Fred runs into Daphne and warns her that Dame Bernice is missing and that there's a real Headless Count on the loose. They find the count taking Merry Jim the jester away, but Daphne still thinks it's not real and orders him to release Merry Jim. Instead, the Count grabs a sword and swings at her, missing.
Now believing Fred, they escaped to warn everyone, but a chase begins with everyone thinking it's part of the game. The Count captures everyone except the gang. Fred and Daphne find Bradwick in the Hall of Master Sleuths, since Daphne said to meet there. They agreed to split-up to find everyone else. While Daphne wasn't looking Bradwick vanished and she ends up being chased by the Count.
Fred finds Velma in the kitchen, but ends up being captured as well.
Daphne finds Shaggy and Scooby and asks where the Wutherings' store the cleaning supplies since they found residue on the feather which is a common household cleaner. She answers the cleaning supplies would be in the basement pantry but changes the subject warning them that the games over, but they took it as a vote of confidence and left to solve the mystery while Daphne gets captured.
While looking in the basement, they declared that the butler is the culprit, but finds him tied up and gagged along with everyone captured. They realized that the Headless Count is real and ends up chased into the kitchen, where Velma easily traps the Count revealing she had solved the mystery.
After everyone is freed the Headless Count is revealed to be Bradwick Haverall, who used the Headless Count as his real costume, and secretly read the master mystery book so that he could control the game (and every other game in the past five years). He knew the mystery ended in the basement pantry. He took Collander out so he would be the only Headless Count in the game. He did it all for money, he blew through his fortune, so he robbed everyone's room while they were playing the game, which explains the empty jewelry boxes. But the real clue was the rented limo keys he dropped, having secretly been his own driver from the job he had. After Bradwick is taken to jail, Fred's glad he saved the reputation of Constable Jerry, while Shaggy and Scooby realized that they were right to begin with, which was scary places are where scary things happen. Daphne will tell her mother to shred the invitations next year, but Velma admitted that she actually had fun. Consequently, the gang's portrait is hung in the Hall of Master Sleuths.

- Despite Daphne being rich, she had a falling out with dolphins in All Paws on Deck, because she couldn't pay them back fifteen dollars.
- When the guests arrive, which included Bradwick, the attic flashes to reveal the Headless Count. It's possible that this was either an unmentioned holographic effect or the Headless Count is real.
