En route to Mackinac Lodge for a ski trip, the Scooby gang happen across comedy duo Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, who are traveling to the same place in hopes of getting work. Both groups receive more than they bargained for when the lodge turns out to have one unwelcome guest: the ghost of Bigfoot.
!!This episode includes examples of the following tropes:
* AsideGlance: Ollie looks sideways into the camera several times in response to his friend's kookiness. Given that it was a staple in their own skits, the episode couldn't very well have omitted it.
* CallAPegasusAHippogriff: The innkeeper calls the spook of the week the ghost of Bigfoot. However, he then describes it as coming into existence when a meanspirited mountain man froze to death, rather than having anything to do with the cryptid. Nonetheless, everyone calls it Bigfoot for the rest of the episode.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: After spending most of the episode chasing and being chased by Bigfoot, Stan and Ollie finally earn a steady job as bellhops, with which they seem very pleased.
* EuphemismBuster: The gang pick up the hitchhiking Laurel and Hardy after finding out they're heading the same place. Ollie tells them that their trip to the hotel is strictly business and that they hope to procure employment as baggage expediters. Stan promptly clarifies that they're looking for work as bellhops.
* FrightBesideThem: Ollie begins reassuring Stan, who's in the next bed, that he and the other guys can take care of Bigfoot if he shows up. Unbeknownst to Ollie, Stan left for the bathroom a few minutes into the speech, and Bigfoot sat down in his bed. When Ollie sits up and turns toward the bed, he sees who he's really been talking to and runs across the hall to fetch Fred, Shaggy, and Scooby.
* HumanSnowball: Scooby accidentally trips into Ollie, sending him and Stan on a sled trip down the ski slopes. By the end, Ollie is almost covered in a snowball, causing Shaggy and Scooby to mistake him for Bigfoot.
* PetTheDog: Despite bossing Stan around as usual, Ollie gets several friendly moments with him.
** When Stan complains that he can't sleep, Ollie pulls out a book of fairy tales and reads him "Literature/GoldilocksAndTheThreeBears" rather than simply telling him to keep quiet so ''he'' can sleep.
** Despite his harsh refusal for the two to leave after Bigfoot shows up, Ollie tells Stan that he'll protect him and spends several minutes reassuring him how numbers will keep them safe.
* SecurityCling: After successfully tracking down Bigfoot, Scooby jumps into Shaggy's arms. Then the monster runs into Laurel and Hardy's room. A few moments later, Stan races out and jumps into Ollie's arms.
* TemptingFate: Two separate Bigfoot sightings begin with one person reassuring their roommate that things will be all right (Velma and Daphne in one case and Ollie and Stan in another).
* UndercoverCopReveal: The skiing instructor, Hans Edelweiss, reveals himself as an undercover cop when he arrests Bigfoot after the spook ends up flat on his back during a chase with the gang.
