That night, the Ghost of Justinian arrives and goes after Mystery, Inc. Just as the ghost has them cornered, the Sundance Kids arrive and rescue them.

Stephanie's last name is revealed to be Heifetz.
Wally's last name is revealed to be Bernstein with the "ei" pronounced with a long i sound.
It is also revealed that Stephanie and Wally have the same mother but different fathers which explains their different last names because in the original TV series, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kids, Stephanie and Wally were siblings. Both their fathers are still alive, and Stephanie's is divorced.
The decision to make the Sundance Kids all Jewish was bound to contradict the original series which is why it was revealed that Stephanie and Wally were converted to Judaism by their fathers. Their mother is a Presbyterian from Scotland.
At the end of the episode, Butch Cassidy says to the Mystery, Inc. gang, "If we ever have another difficult assignment, I will have the pleasure to ask for your help."
