DAPHNE Golly, we’re lucky we found it, Freddy. But why is this oak leaf sticking out of it…?DAPHNE FRED
FRED: Hey, why would an oak leaf be in a Bible? Let me see that, Daphne. (He takes the Bible, opens it and pauses for a brief moment as he looks at the highlighted verse). Get a load of this! (Hands Bible back to Daphne).DAPHNE FRED
DAPHNE: Jeepers, looks like someone tried to highlight a verse with berry juice. Do you think it was Sasquatch, Freddy?DAPHNE FRED
FRED: You bet! Who else could it be but that Bible-swiping Bigfoot?DAPHNE FRED

HOST Hi, everybody and welcome to the game show debut of TO TELL A SLEUTH. I’m your host, Wink (winks) Wonderville. With us today, live on our set, I will introduce you to three guests who claim to be a famous sleuth. It’s your job, audience, to ferret out the facts from the fiction and cast your final vote in TO TELL A SLEUTH.HOST
Let’s meet our guests. Each of these per-cep-tive ladies claims to be none other than VELMA DINKLEY, famed clue-calculator from Mystery Inc.! 
They will each have to answer a series of questions curated to clue us in on the “real” Velma’s vibe. Let’s play! 
HOST: Ladies, would each of you please state your full name for our audience. HOSTHOST
VELMA1 My name is Velma Daisy Dinkley. VELMA1VELMA1
(Rubs glasses on her shirt to clean them then places them atop her head) 
VELMA2 My name is Velma Rose Dinkley. VELMA2VELMA2
(Looks toward audience members over the top of her glasses, trying to make detective-style squinted eye contact.) 
VELMA3 My name is Velma Petunia Dinkley. VELMA3VELMA3
(Shyly waves to the audience, then pushes her glasses up further onto her nose/face.) 
*SCOOBY DOO and SHAGGY can be getting into their place “behind the scenes”. Their net to catch Sasquatch should always be visible. 
HOST Velma#1, How’d you get hooked on solving mysteries?HOST
VELMA1 Well, Wink, I’ve always been an avid reader. I just got tired of reading about the wonders of the world and decided to debunk some urban legends myself. With the help of my friends, of course. VELMA1HOST VELMA1
HOST: Velma#2, How old were you when you went on your first mystery with the gang?HOST
VELMA2 I was probably 15 years old. (the other two Velmas roll their eyes) What? (primps her hair) I know – hard to believe it wasn’t just yesterday. VELMA2HOST VELMA2
HOST: And Velma#3, what’s it like solving mysteries with a dog on the team?HOST
VELMA3 That, Scooby! He is truly an irreplaceable part of our Mystery Inc., gang. Why, without his keen senses we might never have stumbled upon many of the villains’ clues. VELMA3HOST VELMA3
*SCOOBY DOO and SHAGGY pat each other on the shoulder or pantomime- react to all the comments the VELMAs make. 
VELMA2 (interrupts): and don’t forget how many Scooby-snacks we had to lug around to keep his nose on the case. Sheesh! He’s such a chow-hound. 
HOST: Okay, thanks, Velmas. Back to Velma#1. The other Velmas mentioned the need for keen senses on the case. If you misplaced, say, your glasses, what would you do to find them in order to keep cracking clues? HOSTHOST
VELMA1 I actually don’t know where they are right now!VELMA1
VELMA2 Jinkies, they’re right here, dear.VELMA1 VELMA2
(assists Velma#1 by pointing/ reaching for the glasses on #1’s head) 
VELMA1: Oh, thanks. Uh, what was the question again? VELMA1VELMA1 VELMA2
HOST: Uh, never mind. Velma#2, did the Gang ever think about doingsomething other than solving mysteries? 
VELMA2: We sure did. Just before we got our big break, Fred was talking with a talent scout about putting together a rock band. We’d be “Mysteries Five”. The gang would all be sleuthing for clues to solve cases in between gigs. VELMA2VELMA2
HOST Woah, far-out facts Velma! (turns to address audience) Can you picture it folks? What a groovy group to have play at your beach bash or prom, especially when they drove up in their Chevy G-body panel van in 1975...(gesture toward the van cut-out) generously donated by Mike’s Mechanical Marvels on 8th and K Street. And, Velma#3. What would you say has been the most difficult mystery to solve?HOST
*SASQUATCH becomes “visible” to SCOOBY DOO and SHAGGY and they react with nervous movements, forming a silent “plan” to catch him. SASQUATCH is also “behind the scenes” nearer to the HOST and copying his actions/ body language. 
VELMA3 Hmmm. The most difficult mystery to solve has to be when we all stayed in a haunted mansion to help out Scooby when he was going to inherit a million dollars. There were phantom sightings everywhere and almost all of our traps misfired! One mysterious mishap even sent Scooby and Shaggy flying on top of a washing machine. Thankfully those slippery spooks ended up in the suds. VELMA3HOST VELMA3
HOST: So, what happened to Scooby’s inheritance?HOST
VELMA1 (interrupts Velma#3) That cash inheritance was a wash! Collectable Confederate bills. If it wasn’t for those meddling memorabilia collectors, Scooby would have been set for life. VELMA1HOST VELMA1
HOST: Well, folks, this wraps up our guest Q and A segment. It’s time for you to get down with these clue-filled comments, then vote for the REAL Velma. And you can lay it on me, right after this commercial break. HOSTHOST
*AV team screens a 70s commercial on side T.V. as “cover” for the Sasquatch; lights slightly lowered.

*SASQUATCH nabs the HOST taking him off stage and quickly returning to take his place in front of the panel of “VELMAs”. While waiting for the show to return, Sasquatch smooths his hair and checks his breath.

HOST: At your tables you’ll find blank ballots to mark a number on. As a team, vote for Velma#1, Velma#2, or Velma#3. We’ll reveal the real Velma when we come back! (Gesture toward the AV booth as if to cut to a commercial. Hand slicing- wag under the chin.)HOST
