He told Velma AND us enough. Everything will work out just fine, you see Scooby is a far more trusting companion than Pericles was to me.
~ Mr. E revealing himself to be Ricky Owens, and his most famous quote.

Ricky Owens, better known as Mr. E, is the secondary antagonist of the cartoon series Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated, the eleventh incarnation of the Scooby-Doo franchise.

He is the CEO of Destroido Corp. who seeks to obtain the Planispheric Disk in order to find the cursed treasure of Crystal Cove. He is also Shaggy Rogers's counterpart of the New Mystery Incorporated gang.

He was voiced by Lewis Black, who also played Linnux in Rock Dog and in his youth, he was voiced by Scott Menville.

Physical appearance[]

Mr. E is a middle-aged, obese man with long dark brown hair and a dark brown beard. He wears a purple coat with a wax seal contains the letter "E" on it. Inside, Mr. E wears a T-shirt with the colors of yellow and white. He also wears black pants and shoes.

As Ricky when he was still young, he wears similar clothes, but without the coat. Ricky is also notably thin, with little beard on his chin. His pose at the time was similar to that of Shaggy Roger's.

Personality[]

When he was young, Ricky possessed a similar clumsy personality like Shaggy Rogers, and he also views Professor Pericles as a friend similar to how Shaggy views Scooby as a friend.

As Mr. E, he is mysterious, dark, serious, and not to be trusted. Ricky is no longer the boy he used to be, but rather a sinister mastermind who, along with Pericles, commits crimes around Crystal Cove. However, even then, Ricky still shows that he is not truly evil after all, and in his final moments, he tries his best to protect the Mystery Gang, though he failed and got killed in the process.

It is implied that he has a romantic relationship with his fellow member Cassidy Williams.

Biography[]

Past[]

Mr. E. is once Ricky Owens, the equivalent of Shaggy Rogers in the original Mystery Inc.. When he is still a young child, Ricky met Professor Pericles who was injured due to crashing into a tree in his front yard, and nursed Pericles back to health, however the parrot returned and decided to be his permanent friend. Together, they founded the original Mystery Incorporated, along with Cassidy Williams, Brad Chiles and Judy Reeves. During a hunt for secrets in Crystal Cove, Pericles was corrupted by the presence of the Evil Entity and betrayed his gang, along with Mayor Fred Jones, Sr., who forced them to leave the town forever. Ricky disappeared for many years after this.

At some point prior to the series, Ricky returned to Crystal Cove and founded Destroido Corp., a seedy company that created a ton of pollution and seedy products.

Season 1[]

Now posing as a mysterious man called Mr. E, he helps the new Mystery Incorporated through vague clues on several occasions throughout Season 1. Notably, he helped the gang solve many of the mysteries of the week, such as the Humungonauts, hinted at the true mystery beneath crystal cove, and told the Gang to "follow the bird".

Towards the end of Season 1, Mr. E is revealed to be none other than Ricky Owens, and the true mystery of what happened to the original Mystery Inc. in the past was finally revealed as well.

Season 2[]

Eventually Ricky was summoned to a meeting by Professor Pericles, along with the other original Mystery Inc. members. Cassidy, Brad and Judy consequently turned down Pericles, but E rejoined forces with his former best friend, and plotted with him to destroy Cassidy, who began leaving cryptic messages about all of their wrong doings from her radio station. As time went on, Pericles, Brad and Judy had turned against Ricky and, to makes matters worse, Pericles implanted a mutant cobra larvae in his spinal column in his sleep, which put him back under Pericles' control.

Mr. E. continued to grow to hate Pericles, as he watched the parrot's methods getting crueler and crueler, so he tried once again to stop the latter, when Pericles told him to make sure the robots killed everyone they had kidnapped for slave labor once they had no more use for them. Despite this, Pericles still managed to force him to continue doing his biddings.

Finally after the Evil Entity was released and possessed Pericles and consumed Brad and Judy, Ricky was all that was left of the Original Mystery Incorporated. He managed to save the Current Mystery Incorporated from the Entity but was devoured himself.

However, in the new timeline created by destroying the Entity and therefore undoing the effects of its influence, Ricky is seen as being handsome and in good shape, as well as happily married to Cassidy, friends with Pericles again, and the CEO of the Creationex Corp rather than Destroido Corp. Meanwhile, Harlan Ellison took on the identity of Mr. E instead of Ricky.

Quotes[]

This has all happened before.
~ Mr.E to Mystery Inc.
Professor Pericles: They do not suspect us of having set the bomb. Excellent.
Mr. E: Not so excellent, however, is the fact that it didn't work. That idiot trap fiend found a way to blow up my bomb, and the gang walked free. I would have destroyed my own company to get those Planispheric Disk pieces. These children are proving hard to handle.
Professor Pericles: We must find another way. Perhaps somebody close who can betray the kinder without them ever seeing it coming.
Mr. E: Of course. Brad and Judy.
Professor Pericles: Question is, will they be willing to betray their only son?)
~ Mr. E's discussion with Professor Pericles.
A meeting of this momentous importance deserves some mood music.
~ Mr. E
(Angel: The Mystery, Inc. kids have found a piece of the Planispheric Disk.) So now, we know where 2 of the pieces are. Good work, Angel. (Angel: Just remember, I'm working with you, not for you, E. I'm worried about those kids.) Why? (Angel: Pericles is loose, and that nutso parrot might go after the piece, which puts them in danger, and us, if the former members of our club get wind of it.) Don't worry, little Angel. The other 2 won't move a muscle as long as Fred Jones is still alive.
~ Mr. E and Cassidy Williams' discussion.
Mr. E: So, you see, Professor Pericles, it's over! You're not the boss here, I am! And you're out of the group! (he suddenly begins to feel a shock of pain from within his spinal column; groans in agony)
Professor Pericles: Oh, Ricky, Ricky. My loyal Brad and Judy told me of your little mutiny. So, last night, while you were asleep, I put mutated cobra larvae in your spine. Every time I press this button, a little venom is released. So, as you can see, or feel, I'm still very much in control. You do as I say. First, we steal the Planispheric Disk from the kinder. Then, we destroy them. (cackles wickedly) We destroy them!
~ Mr. E attempts to retribute Pericles until the latter paralyzes him with mutated cobra larvae implanted in his spinal column.
You monster! I'm not your trained monkey. I won't do it. I won't be a part of this madness anymore. Aah! Aah! Aah! Yes, pro--master. Whatever you command. I will--have the Kriegstaffebots destroy them all. Not one person from Crystal Cove will be left alive.
~ Mr. E refused to go further with Pericles' plans, only to be subdued by the latter once again.
Mr. E: You make me sick, Pericles! I wish I had never saved you all these years ago!
Professor Pericles: Hmm? Do I care? No!
Mr. E: Maybe you should care!
Professor Pericles: Perhaps you should care more about the poisonous cobra larvae implanted in your spine. Now, let's move!
~ Mr. E expressing his absolute disgust towards Pericles after he mercilessly murdered Hot Dog Water.
Its too late for me Velma. SAVE YOURSELVES!
~ Mr. E's final words before being eaten by the Evil Entity.
