Premise[]
Mystery Inc. has a run-in with the Creeper, while on the road, causing them to crash.
Synopsis[]
While driving the Mystery Machine down a dirt road, Mystery Inc. are shocked to see the Creeper jump out in front of them, forcing Fred to drive off the road; the van is totaled. Shaggy asks what what they'll do now, but Velma knows what to do, and says out loud, "Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there." Suddenly, a State Farm lady appears, telling the gang she'll handle it. Fred then unmasks the Creeper as Mr. Carswell, who says the "Meddling kids" line, and Scooby laughs.
