Aired as part of The Scooby-Doo/Dynomutt Hour.
Mr. Hyde, alias Willie The Weasel, abetted by Hyde Dog, demands to be
mayor of Big City, threatening its citizens with a sinister formula that
turns them into evil Hyde-like creatures. Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder,
assisted by the Scooby-Doo detectives, plan to trap the wily Mr. Hyde and
agree to his request. Once this results, Mr. Hyde, via his terrible greed,
is snared into a wild falcon fracas: Dynomutt captures Hyde Dog and the
antidote that will save Big City, with Blue Falcon's Falconclaw scooping
up the fleeing Willie The Weasel, b.k.a. Mr. Hyde. After being commended by
the Mayor, Dynomutt, executing a heroic exit from City Hall, accidentally
gets caught in one of Shaggy's Scooby-traps! Production & Trivia Notes:
Dog Wonder and B.F., teamed with the Scooby-Doo crimestoppers, meet Lowbrow, a villain desiring to be king of crime employing the knowledge from the books of Big City University to further his dastardly schemes. This primitive thief unwittingly leads Blue Falcon, Dynomutt and Scooby Doo and company to his lair, where they discover his latest plan: robbery of Big City Mint! Blue Falcon and Dynomutt set a trap for Lowbrow and thwart his evil plans, using an "Instant Delayed Action Falcon Balloon," which captures him and neatly deposits him into prison. Later, at a restaurant, Blue Falcon and Dynomutt treat Scooby and friends to a turkey dinner, for their help in apprehending Lowbrow. Dyno volunteers to carve the turkey, but, instead of a Dyno-carving Knife, his paws malfunctioningly turn into Dyno-Mallets, which pound the poor turkey mercilessly flat. ("Anybody for turkey pancake?") Production & Trivia Notes:
Dynomutt and Blue Falcon meet The Gimmick, a sinister crook using an
assortment of mechanical devices to perpetrate a bizarre crime: the theft
of the fabulous treasure of Price Ringpur of India. Dog Wonder, in
assisting his master, hampers matters with his usual unique
mechanical malfunctions. The Gimmick appears to be the villainous victor,
as he robs a bank and a jewelry store and then attempts to capture the
treasure of Prince Ringpur. In the end, Dynomutt's mechanical genius finds
the lair of the evil villain despite his comical screwups, and, with the
aid of his Dyno-Jets, he chases down and catches a fleeing, hang gliding
Gimmick. Later, after B.F. and D.W. are commended by Price Ringpur of
India, cameo guest star Lt. Mumbly takes time from his busy
schedule to bring Dog Wonder to Blue Falcon after the former suffers a
nasty spill out a window...and then tickets him for littering the
sidewalk!
Production & Trivia Notes:
Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder encounter The Worm, an evil genius who uses his
insidious Wormborer to ensure the
escape od convict Bugsy Busby and helicopter thief Roto Chopper, seeking
revenge against Big City. Swooping down on Big City Tech (scene of
a freak accident years back when The Night Crawler, then Professor Ronald
Hickman, has his brain transferred to a lowly worm),
The Blue Falcon and Dynomutt discover and try to stop the villains'
attempt to pilfer a multimillion dollar computer. Despite a string of Dyno
DumDums, The Daring Duo lure The Creepy Crawler and his even creepier
cronies into a bizarre underground pursuit (where else would worms go?)
and trick them into burrowing into Big City Prison.
Production & Trivia Notes:
Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder run afoul of Fishface, an aquatic creep, who
schemes to bleed dry the rich cargoes passing in and out of Big City
Harbor. This fishy fiend then squeezes Big City dry of its life supporting
oil and demands $15 million in order to ransom it. Blue Falcon manages to
talk The Mayor into paying the ransom by way of a falcon scheme to nab
Fishface; unfortunately, this scheme backfires when Dog Wonder and Blue
Falcon are captured and are about to become shark bait. They nevertheless
escape via a Dyno Power Pack, and Dynomutt, turning into a giant fishing
pole (how symbolic!), manages to reel in Fishface and put him out of
circulation.
Production & Trivia Notes:
Using a sinister symphony, Manyfaces, the malevolent, malicious master of
a thousand terrifying disguises, lulls Big City asleep with lullaby music
specially designed to put people to sleep, allowing him to
rob them of their valuables. Donning earmuffs, Blue Falcon and Dynomutt plan a trap,
but Manyfaces avoids it when he and Grimsley and Gaunt, his henchmen impersonate Chief Quimby,
the Mayor, and B.F.. Dog Wonder, unfortunately, apprehends the real B.F.,
mistakenly believing he has Manyfaces in disguise. Then, Manyfaces instructs his
cronies Grimsley (as The Chief) and Gaunt (The Mayor) to use police radio and TV
signals to transmit his hypnotic lullaby and put the entire city, police force
and all, to sleep, thus allowing Manyfaces and his criminal crew to loot Big
City! Through touching Dynomutt's one ticklish spot (he's the only one who knows where it is),
Blue Falcon manages to finally convince Dynomutt he's the true B.F. and
together they pursue the real Manyfaces and his creepy cronies, who at
this time are driving down the street in a dumptruck piled high with
stolen loot. Manyfaces, Grimsley and Gaunt again tries to confuse D.W. by his B.F. disguise,
but this time Dog Wonder picks his true blue buddy and Manyfaces is
arrested. Production & Trivia Notes:
The Daring Duo meet Superthug and Zorkon, two evil geniuses who have created a superdynamic steel skeleton. Superthug steals every bit of available steel from Big City, as he wants to mass-produce these skeletons for every crook in Big City to use for evil purposes. To counter this superfiend, B.F. straps Dynomutt's hands and legs to his and challenges Superthug with his Falcon-Dyno Superstrength Power Pack Combination...and to steal the steel TV tower on top of the TV station building. S.T. accepts the challenge, but Dynomutt's usual rash of mechanical mishaps literally trip up all of Blue Falcon's attempts to stop him. Superthug makes off with the TV tower, while Blue Falcon winds up being entangled in Dog Wonder's metallic limbs, defeated, humiliated, and publicly disgraced. Since the superheroes are unable to stop Superthug, secret agent Focus One has no alternative but to fire The Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder ("Gosh! You'd think they could at least give a couple of ex-superheroes 30 days' notice!"). In despair, the unemployed champions of justice search out their former adversary Superthug, attempting to join forces. He and Zorkon fall for The Falcon Phoney Out-Of-Work Plan, designed to deliberately trick Superthug into luring them to his lair, and are captured before their sinister Superskeletons can be distributed. Production & Trivia Notes:
At The International Coin Exposition in The Big City Convention Center,
Blue Falcon, in trying to combat the villainous Mr. Cool,
whose cold rays freeze everyone into solid ice,
accidentally drops his Falcon communicator from his Falconbelt in trying
to save Dog Wonder, who has also been frozen by the cold ray blast. The
communicator is immediately snatched up by Mr. Cool. Once thawed out,
Dynomutt seems to be in worse shape than ever before, forever irking Blue
Falcon with his oafish chuckling. Using the Falcon communicator device,
Cool tricks B.F. into believing he is Focus One, telling him Dynomutt is
being recalled to the factory for a reprogramming. Dog Wonder is then
programmed by Cool into an evil D.W., who nearly succeeds in ending Blue
Falcon's career...and his life! But, true to Dyno-malfunctioning
tradition, he botches his foul plan. While scaling a building with Falcon
Suctioncup Feet, D.W. captures B.F. and brings him to Mr. Cool, who orders
him to crush Blue Falcon under a block of ice ("Get ready to become a chip
under the old block, B.F!"). Fortunately, yet another Dyno-Dum-Dum
prevents this, and B.F. escapes and deprograms Dog Wonder back into his
faithful crimefighting old self again. Together, they track down Mr. Cool and
his cool, cruel cohorts Zero and Fridge, and foil their attempt to freeze Big City Bay into a
block of ice. While the henchmen are captured, Cool attempts a getaway in The Falconcar, but is foiled by its Falcon Instant Anti-Car
Thief Ejection Seat, which springs him high into the air.
Production & Trivia Notes:
The Blue Falcon and Dynomutt attempt to get evidence that will put away
that buzzing vixen, The Queen Hornet. They chase her after she hijacks an
armored car full of money, but, due to a string of Dog Wonder Blunders,
they are stuck in a tree. The Queen Hornet uses her quick-drying
"Honeysticker" on The Daring Duo and brings them to the basement of The
Hornet's Nest nightclub (an appropriate GHQ for such a mean Queen), where
she hopes a swarm of her "little brothers and sisters," her trained
hornets, will build an unbreakable nest around Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder.
They are saved by the Dyno Car Wash and jet by Falconcar overseas to catch
and stop Queen Hornet and her lackeys in the act of stealing the famous
moon diamonds from returning astronauts. They trace her to the landing
capsule, where they discover the gooey "honey-sticker" has frozen the
astronauts immobile. D.W. cuts a hole in the bottom of the capsule and
dives out, activating his Dyno Flotation Collar which succeeds in bringing
the capsule, astronauts and all to the surface. B.F. and D.W. then pursue
Q.H., capturing her in The Dyno Bubble-Trap and recovering the precious
moon diamonds.

Episode 10: "The Wizard Of Ooze"Production No. 83-10 First Aired November 13, 1976 The Daring Duo encounter the sinister Swamp Rat and Mudmouth, who've been hijacking trucks in the Bogmyer Swamp for the purpose of stealing their pumps. They use them to pump half of their swamp into Big City, turning it into Bog City, a giant swamp so muddy the citizens desert the city, leaving it unprotected and easy fair game for The Swamp Rat and Mudmouth. Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder, teamed with the Scooby Doo crime busters, manage to extricate themselves from becoming gator bait and rush to the aid of the oozy Big City to lure the swampy thieves into the open. There, B.F., to allay Swamp Rat's suspicions, disguises Shaggy Rogers and Scooby-Doo as Blue Falcon and Dynomutt, respectively, and have them going the other way with the real Daring Duo posing as expensive gold statues at The Big City Convention Hall. The wily thieves, thinking B.F. and D.W. are heading elsewhere, feel free to steal the gold statues. When they learn of Blue Falcon's ruse, they flee into the swamp, only to be captured via The Dynocopter and apprehended. Production & Trivia Notes:
The Daring Duo meet evil Eric Von Flick, a hack movie director who situates in the abandoned Epic Studios just outside of Big City, who attempts production of the greatest disaster movie of all time: The Total Destruction Of Big City, starring Tin Kong, a gigantic robot ape (no relation to Grape Ape, mind you!), and abetted by his criminal crewmembers Gripper (operator of Tin Kong) and Sprocket (cinematographer). In Desperation, Blue Falcon uses The Dyno Enlarging Powerpack, making Dog Wonder 50 times larger, resulting in him stopping Kong in destroying a passenger train. Suddenly B.F. is nabbed by Tin Kong!!! Dynomutt turns into a Dynobiplane, flies up and shakes Dynopepper into Tin King's nose causing him to sneeze and release Blue Falcon. The Daring Duo snatches the chance to gain entry inside T.K.'s control panel and reprograms him, commanding him to scoop up the villainous VonFlick and his minions in his enormous hands once and for all, ensuring his last picture will be his prison photograph. Later, at The Falcon's Lair, Dog Wonder, having reprogrammed Tin Kong as a butler, calls for him to take out the trash. T.K. reaches in the window, grabs Dynomutt, and neatly deposits him into The Falcon Garbage Can. Production & Trivia Notes:

This fiend then lures The Daring Duo, The Mayor, Judge Grater, Chief Wiggins, and The Chief Prosecutor to his yacht, aptly named Revenge, where they are all kidnapped and shanghaied to his island fortress. Remaining city officials disappear one by one, until Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder allow themselves to be captured as well, hoping to solve and foil this crime. When I.F. has all the officials and The Daring Duo in a huge prison cell, he relates the reason for his vengeance: he spent 10 years in Rockatraz Prison and now wants them all to spend the same number of years in his prison. Dynomutt chews some shrinking gum and shrinks down to size, picks the lock, and frees Blue Falcon and the officials. The Daring Duo then capture a fleeing Ironface in The Dyno-Yo-Yo, and unmasks him to be the sinister Serpent Lady. She is then recaptured, exchanging her iron face for iron bars on Rockatraz.

The Red Vulture"Production No. 83-13 First Aired November 27, 1976 The Red Vulture steals 2 of the world's most powerful superjet engines from The Rockheed Factory, with plans to use them for his nefarious Vulturejet and in turn dominate the airways. The Daring Duo trace the villain to The Big City Superjet Races, but are immediately snagged by The Vulturejet and trapped along with the crew aboard a cargo jet recently robbed by R.V., which is slated to crash into a mountain far ahead of them. With only 3 minutes to spare, Dog Wonder extends his neck and arms into the cockpit and steers the jet out of danger. Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder then trace The Red Vulture to his nest, but upon arrival, they are instantly set upon by R.V.'s deadly mechanical mini-vultures. D.W. captures them all in a burlap sack, and the two jet by Falconcar to stop The Red Vulture, who is at present stealing $10 million of gold bouillon arriving in Big City Airport. R.V. spots them, and tries to suck The Daring Duo, Falconcar and all into his supersonic vacuum device. Fortunately, this proves to be Red Vulture's tragic undoing as the snout sucks up junk Dynomutt inadvertently tosses about in a vain attempt to search for the Dyno-Antivacuum Vacuum. The jet becomes so clogged with Dynojunk, The Vulturejet disintegrates, forcing R.V. and his minions to fly for their lives. Having retrieved the stolen jet engines, The Daring Duo capture The Red Vulture's lackeys, Prop and Cowl, fleeing on an escalator in the airport, and The Vulture himself, fleeing in a biplane.

Episode 14: "The Injustice League Of America"Production No. 83-14 First Aired December 4, 1976 Six of the most evil criminals ever to face The Daring Duo - Fishface, The Worm, The Queen Hornet, Lowbrow, Superthug, and The Gimmick - have broken Big City Prison. They secretly reconvene and join forces to form The Injustice League Of America. By ordering a series of robberies across Big City at the costume ball at The Vandergilt Mansion and the proposed Big City Bank, The ILA lures Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder to their secret lair at Fishface's HQ. There, they fall haplessly victim to an escape-proof supertrap rigged by The Gimmick. Without The Daring Duo to foil them, the sinister sextet split up into separate pairs and go their separate ways in converging upon the unprotected Big City. It takes a total of 6 Dynogadgets to ensure Blue Falcon and Dynomutt's escape, and they plan to capture the whole group by disguising themselves alternately as members of The Injustice League and thwart the criminals with a bevy of double-crosses. First, B.F. and D.W. disguise themselves as The Superthug and The Gimmick to foil Fishface and The Worm's hijacking of Jacque Couscous's treasure ship at Big City Bay; then, as Fishface and The Worm, they beat Lowbrow and Queen Hornet to the draw at cleaning out The Big City Hertz Castle Museum; and finally, as Lowbrow and Queen Hornet, they thwart The Superthug and The Gimmick from stealing The Gold Leaf Dome right off the state capitol. Confused into believing they've been pitted against one another, The Injustice League Of America quarrels as they settle their differences at the abandoned Waldorf Euphoria...which is better than B.F and D.W. had hoped for, as they swipe the crooks into Blue Falcon's Falconcape and return them to Big City Prison. Production & Trivia Notes:
Episode 15: "The Lighter Than Air Raid"Production No. 83-15 First Aired December 11, 1976 As Radley Crowne and Dynomutt enjoy a leisure game of golf, The Blimp, evil genius of the airways, directs The Blimplair silently high over their heads, pilfering Big City's supply of helium. Once alerted by FOCUS One, they immediately switch costumes and dash off in pursuit, but a malfunctioning Dyno-Helium Sniffer leads The Daring Duo to a balloon vendor at The Big City Circus, where the hapless Dog Wonder unwittingly becomes the main attraction on the trapeze. Waylaid once again by balloon dummies in a toy factory, Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder chase The Blimplair but are caught in a giant Blimptrap; furthermore, they are chained to a gas helium balloon, which will carry them to their doom in outer space. They escape, but too late: The Blimp has already used the helium to reach the communications satellite, shot his Blimpray into all the TV and radio sets and rendered everyone "Blimpified" (e.g. turned into helpless baloons!), and now he is looting Big City! In The Mayor's office, Dog Wonder turns on the TV, sure that the TV news has all the details on the city's "Blimpification," and blimpifies everyone in the room! The Daring Duo waddle back to The Falcon's Lair where Dynomutt concocts an antidote. After The Blimp and his lackeys are hauled off to The Big City Jailhouse and Big City's citizens restored to normal, Dynomutt makes good use of The Blimpray by serving up kingsized hamburgers!

Dynomutt and Radley Crowne race out of the Big City Drive-In Theatre, leaving a
sea of poporn, and switch to Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder in a futile attempt to
save Big City Bridge from the collapse as predicted by The Prophet. The Daring
Duo begin to look bad as they are unable to prevent a second disaster - the
leaning over of the Big City City Hall - also predicted by The Prophet, despite
Dynomutt's efforts to fix the damage. The Blue Falcon mistrusts The Prophet, and
with good reason: he rigs each disaster for the sick purpose of charging the
Mayor $500,000 for each prediction. To counter this situation, B.F. introduces
Swami Poochi (D.W. in disguise) who charges half price for his
prediction: the collapse of a rocket at Big City Rocket Base in 2 days. The
Daring Duo secretly hover over The Prophet's lair and sectetly listens in as an
enraged Prophet becomes dead set on making Swami Poochi look bad by plotting to
set off the rocket in 1 day and destroying it in space. Blue Falcon and
Dog Wonder sneak up behind The Prophet and his henchwomen at the base, but the
dopey doberman accidentally triggers the gantry release with his foot. Dynomutt
activates the Dyno-Winch to pull the gantry tower back up, but too fast, and
The Daring Duo become entangled in the Dyno-Winch's rope. The Prophet blasts
Blue Falcon and Dog Wonder into outer space, but, with the trusty aid of The
Dyno-Handy Helpers (actually Dynomutt's nephews), they manage to free themselves
of their bind and return to Earth in time to catch and stop The Prophet and his
henchwomen in the act of sabotaging Big City Dam.
