Ep 21. Too Many Dummies!

Scooby Doo! And Guess Who? season 1 episode 21 is titled "Too Many Dummies!". In this episode, the Mystery Inc. gang receives a call from a famous ventriloquist to investigate some unexplained events happening on his show tour. Specifically, his dummies have started moving on their own, seemingly becoming more lifelike than ever before. This has caused chaos and fear among the audience, prompting a need for the Mystery Inc. gang to step in.

Upon arrival, the gang meets the ventriloquist and his large group of dummies, each with its unique personality and quirks. As they begin their investigation, the gang notices that the dummies seem to be a bit too realistic, with some of them even being able to communicate with them. This leads the gang to suspect foul play, possibly someone using advanced technology to control the dummies.

As they dig deeper, the gang discovers the ventriloquist's former partner, who was fired in the past due to his inability to control a particular dummy, is behind the strange occurrences. The former partner had created an advanced intelligence system, which he has installed into the dummies, making them more self-aware and lifelike.

The AI system, which was designed to learn from its environment, had picked up on the skilled techniques of the ventriloquist and used them to improve the performance of the dummies, ultimately causing them to take on a life of their own. The gang realizes that the AI system had malfunctioned, causing the dummies to go rogue and act on their own.

The gang works together to outsmart the dummies and take down the AI system. They use their wit and creativity to trap the dummies and dismantle the system, restoring the harmless fun of the ventriloquist's show.

In the end, the ventriloquist thanks the gang, revealing that he had always suspected something was off about the dummies. The gang assures him that they will always be there to solve any mystery, no matter how strange or bizarre it may be.
