Shaggy thinks a real Gnome, as Karl denies and believes it's another masked freak.

Even Daphne is not in Seattle, Karl will help Fred to find her after days. He prepares for the traps, as Velma is sleeping in the truck, as Shaggy and Scooby read comics of the Blue Falcon and ate all the food from the restaurant. They run into a Giant Gnome again, as Fred was searching for them, as they escape from it again. Fred warned Velma about the Giant Gnome attacking the Mystery Inc, as he got an idea of how to trap him by continuing the parade.

At the parade continues, Mayor Recker goes as bait to lure the gnome into a trap, as Shaggy and Scooby are done for one day, as they help Karl, Velma, and Fred to trap it. Velma thinks Floyd is behind this, hates the parade and wants to get rid of it. Mayor Recker is a chicken, as the Giant Gnome started to attack people and the Mayor.

Moore wasn't good enough to be in the parade, as he couldn't show his talent. Alan Moore attacked it for a reason, as he nearly captured the Mayor, as he sent to prison.

Fred is happy that they solve the mystery, but he wants Daphne back and will look for any state in America or Country.
