What a Night for a Knight - S1-E1

Plot hole: It seems unlikely that: 1. The curator, who's short and chubby could fit into that suit of armor. 2. How he could be strong enough to lift up the table Scooby and Shaggy are hiding under at one point, 3. That the museum has no security guards who might catch the curator and his thugs during their art forgery scheme and 4. There are eyes shown moving in the suit of armor when the gang's talking to the curator despite the fact he's the Black Knight Ghost.

Spooky Space Kook - S1-E15

Question: We never found out what the ham and chicken bones had to do with anything. They were ham and chicken until Scooby ate them. Afterwards, Shaggy wonders why the ghost would keep ham and chicken in the fridge. This was never answered in the episode. Why were they important?

Piemanmoo

Chosen answer: A ghost wouldn't have to keep any food in the fridge - they don't need to eat. So it is one thing that proves the ghost is not a ghost.
