I can see it now Scooby and Shaggy can't find the Ribena™ Vitamin C some one had stolen it! Yoicks!!!!
While Velma potters in the lab doing an ascorbic acid assay, Daphne and Fred go hunting to find who stole the vitamin C.
GSK© MIB® chase them down the corridor in the old deserted factory* when voila their dividend checks come in from all that pharma investment**
So they all end up fat and lethargic, giving their pancreases*** a hard time, swallowing 1% sugar free Scooby Snacks
Benedict
* The new factory of course is in Mumbai or Sechzuan
** Shaggy thought it was at more ethical than the slave trade or selling plutonium and didn't contribute to greenhouse gasses
*** I give in - what's the plural of panceas, pancreii?
