Shaggy arrives at Coolsville hospital, where his mother and little sister are waiting. "Mom, mom what happened?" Shaggy said running in. "Daddy got hurt, someone hurt him." Holly said as Shaggy picked her up. "Hey, it's ok Holly, daddy's gonna be ok." Shaggy said, hugging her. Soon the doctors come out as Shaggy's mother runs up to hear about her husband's situation. "Is my husband ok?" She asked. "He's fine, it only shot him in the arm, grazed him, but in about two to three weeks his arm should be back to normal." The doctor said. "Thank you doctor." Shaggy's mother said. Moments after the attack, Shaggy called Fred and Daphne. "Are you sure it was the same man who attacked Daphne?" Fred asked. "Positively, he had the same mask and everything, he came up and shot him in the arm." Shaggy said. "So he's sending us a message, he's coming after our family, but we're gonna figure out why." Fred said. "I gotta go, talk to you later." Shaggy said, hanging up the phone. Velma is still on the computer looking for new information involving the Creeper case. "Why is every single photo a headshot?" She asked as she kept looking. "It's like she was trying to hide something, like she was...jinkies."She said. Soon it hit her she closed her laptop and ran to Fred's house. She arrives at Fred's house. "Guys, guys I think Mable Harris was pregnant." Velma said, coming in the van. "What?" Daphne asked in shock. "All the photos, all the photos after she was rescued only show a headshot of her, from when she was reunited with her parents, to the newspaper interview." Velma said, showing the photos. "So it's not a random copycat killer, the baby has the same criminal treats as his father." Shaggy said. "And all of the Creeper's victims were treated horribly, covered in dirt,but Mable was well taken care of, maybe the Creeper knew she was pregnant, that's why he let her live."Velma said. "But why go after our families, they had nothing to do with the Creeper or Mable Harris?" Daphne asked. "What if our families know something we don't, like who the baby is?" Fred said, as he and his friends looked at the board.
