The Reveal

The villainous Emile Mondavarious (Rowan Atkinson) isn't the real villain at all - at least not as we thought. Emile is actually a robot being controlled from within by Scooby-Doo's obnoxious nephew Scrappy-Doo.

Even with Scooby-Doo's history of villainous disguises, who the hell saw this coming?

How To Spot It Early

There are numerous tells throughout the film, namely moments where Emile is shown behaving like a dog, such as scratching behind his ear, bearing his teeth, growling, and so on.

Though audiences will most likely dismiss these actions as Rowan Atkinson's typical silly mugging, in actual fact these flourishes make it clear that there's more to Emile than meets the eye.
