Rumed, Lord of Terror

Rumed, Lord of Terror (恐怖のRumed、主 Kyōfu no Rumed,-nushi) is the nineteenth episode of the third season of Scooby-Doo: The Next Mystery.

Summary
As Batman, Robin, and Batgirl track down Gotham's rougues gallery in Tokyo, a crime lord named Lord Rumed, tries to rule the Japanese nation and destroy its population.

Synopsis
Lord Rumed manages to escape the building, only to then see Scooby waiting for him in the alley. Lord Rumed laughs this off, but is surprised when Scooby belts him the gut, knocking him into some garbage. In a rage, Lord Rumed threatens to kill Scooby's friends and family if he gets caught, but then Scooby hold up another one of the Joker's bombs, vowing to protect the city and his friends and family by doing them both in. Panicking, Lord Rumed screams for Batman, Robin, and Batgirl's help. The gang, Batman, Robin, and Batgirl arrives and tries to persuade Scooby to back down, but Scooby refuses to listen, as he is sick and tired of being a laughing stock to Lord Rumed and the other villains. Believing that Scooby has lost it and feeling he has no other choice, Lord Rumed gives himself up.

Before Paul and the other villains was put in the paddywagon, Scooby, who reveals that he still has the bomb, tosses the bomb towards them anyway. The villains screams and hides behind a policeman, but the bomb is revealed  to be a harmless firework. The gang laughs and even Batman, surprisingly, as the greatly irritated villains are taken away in the paddywagon.

 * Alfred Pennyworth was mentioned by Batman.
 * Commissioner James Gordon is never actually seen in the episode but he can only be heard via Barbara's phone.
