Detailed summary
Memorable quotes
Urkel: Hey, you're those famous teenage mystery-solvers. I'm a huge fan. Fred, you caught the Beast of Swamptown. Daphne, you trapped the Monster of Creepstown. Velma, your glasses correct your lazy eye and your astigmatism. Shaggy you wear a green shirt. And, Scooby, you're a dog!
Scooby: Whoah! He knows everything about us.
Urkel: You're legends, and I'd love you to help me find my robot!
Janitor: And I would've gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for you meddling kids and super-nerd Steven Quincy Urkel!
Urkel: That's my name. Don't wear it out.

The episode had its American premiere via the Boomerang video subscription on-demand service on August 15, 2019. The episode was supposed to have a televised premiere on Cartoon Network on August 26, 2019, but was preempted by The Amazing World of Gumball.

Behind the scenes
- With every episode's title card, one of the gang announces the guest star, which is Velma this time.
- When Scooby dips his head in the Volcano Scooby Snacks jar, he comes out with a hat and Scooby Snacks arranged in such a way that he evokes Scooby-Dum, his cousin from The Scooby-Doo Show and Laff-a-Lympics.
- How many Scooby Snacks is Scooby bribed with? One.
- How many times does Shaggy say "Zoinks"? Twice.
- How many times does Daphne say "Jeepers"? Once.
- The museum director is reminiscent of Carl Winslow, the patriarch in Family Matters.
- The Technomancer's design is lifted straight from the Phantom Shadow/Green Ghost from the Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! episode "A Night of Fright is No Delight".
- Interestingly, Scooby-Doo already existed in Family Matters, at least as its real-world counterpart does, as Urkel mentioned he had a pair of Scooby-Doo slippers in the episode "Skip to My Lieu", when Jaleel White could perform a lot more convincing portrayal as Urkel.
Errors
- Shaggy says he and Scooby are eating Volcano Hot Scooby Snacks, but the jar just says "Volcano Snacks".
