Scry
To “scry N” means to look at the top N cards of your library, then put any number of them on the bottom of your library in any order and the rest on top of your library in any order.
If a player is instructed to scry 0, no scry event occurs. Abilities that trigger whenever a player scries won’t trigger.
If multiple players scry at once, each of those players looks at the top cards of their library at the same time. Those players decide in APNAP order (see rule 101.4) where to put those cards, then those cards move at the same time.
Rulings
If the target is not legal as Freeze in Place tries to resolve, Freeze in Place will be removed from the stack. You won't scry.
You may target a creature that is already tapped with Freeze in Place. If the target creature is already tapped as Freeze in Place resolves, you will still put three stun counters on it.
