Crossover with Scooby Doo

"I got to hand it to you kids," said the Sheriff as he stood beside Macbeth, who had been tied to a chair. "We weren't sure we'd ever catch Macbeth. But here he is!"

"Well," said Daphne, "if Scooby and Shaggy hadn't been in the MacDuffs' living room, we may never have caught him!"

"What were the two of you doing in there?" asked Fred.

"We were just looking for something to eat!" said Shaggy. "And there was a table in that room that was covered with food!"

"Right!" said Scooby.

"Now we'll see who the REAL Macbeth is!" said Velma. Fred pulled on Macbeth's hair, lifting away a mask that revealed ... the Porter!

"And I would have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for you meddling kids!" said the Porter.

Everybody had a good laugh.

"So I guess all of the killings were just staged, then, in an attempt to frighten the patrons of Manderlay away so that Brookline could have their school back sooner!" said Daphne.

The sheriff smiled. "That's a good thought, but no, they're all dead. Duncan, Lady MacDuff, Banquo ... he really did kill them."

"Oh," said Daphne. The gang all looked at each other. "Well, that's depressing," Velma said at last.

Suddenly, a loud cry went up; MacDuff rushed in and leaped up on the Porter's shoulders. As Scooby Doo let out an impassioned "Ruh roh!", a noose descended from the ceiling, and MacDuff wrapped it around the Porter's neck, gave another shout, and then leaped away. The rope shot back up toward the ceiling, pulling the struggling figure of the Porter with it, until, after a few moments, he went completely still.

The gang all stared up at the Porter's body in silence, until finally several black-masked stewards appeared to usher them out of the room.
