DuckTales

Ach, Webby, a crossbow?

Uh! Sorry, Granny.

That's better.

- What's all this? - Hey, guys!

Every year I brush up on my survivor skills on a secret island!

I-I mean, a regular island

where young warriors definitely don't combat

the forces of nature and each other.

You know, it's girl stuff.

I gotta go!

I gotta...

Why is everyone running off?

Ugh.

You would figure it out sooner or later.

Today is Mr. McDuck's birthday.

His birthday?!

Okay, people, we are in crisis party-planning mode.

- Louie, start a guest list. Dewey... - Absolutely not.

Mr. McDuck has a strict no-birthday-party rule.

He hates the reminder that he's...

Literally the oldest person he knows?

But our most epic relative

deserves the most epic party ever!

Oh, I don't know. He hasn't had a good one

since before his old butler Duckworth died.

Like this stuffy old guy could beat the party

I threw for the Junior Woodchuck Party Planning Committee.

It was both work and play.

Fine. Don't say I didn't warn you.

If I don't come back, tell my story!

Nah, he's gonna love it!

Huey's time to shine!

Another year older, another year richer.

I have the house to myself.

Time to celebrate with peace and quiet.

Aah! A home invasion!

Take that, you bionic bandit!

Surprise!

Happy B-b-birthday!

Meow-meow-bam-bam-meow.

*DUCK TALES (2017)* Episode Title : "McMystery at McDuck McManor!"

So, next is mingling from 6:00 to 6:05.

Bathroom break at 6:06, but keep it under a minute,

'cause at 6:07 we're scheduled to have fun!

A fun time!

What the blazes was that?

Oh, just the one and only DJ Daft Duck.

Yeah! What up, yo?

Dewey's only answering to his DJ name tonight. Just go with it.

Why are there a bunch of masked weirdoes in my house?

Louie put together a guest list

of Duckburg's most powerful and elite.

It's about quality, not quantity.

Everyone here is kind of a big deal.

You know, we had to make it a costume party

to throw off the paparazzi.

Get in the spirit!

Or not. That's cool.

Come on, hop aboard the Happy Birthday Express!

Toot toot! All aboard for a jumbo word search about you!

Pass.

Next up, musical chairs!

Or we could sit in silence.

Balloon Pop Relay coming into the station!

Station's closed.

Staff meeting!

I don't think Scrooge wants a party.

That's crazy! There've been a few bumps,

but he'll come around.

Louie, no schmoozing. Just serve punch.

Dewey. Dewey.

DJ Daft Duck?

Here's a list of pre-approved songs

with a 90% enjoyment rating. Play these.

Listen, I know planning is your thing,

but you're cramping our style.

You gotta relax and just ride the party wave.

A party is a celebration of a life,

bringing people together to let the guest the honor

know how much they're loved.

Uncle Scrooge has done so much for us!

This is our chance to do something for him!

By forcing him to have fun at a party he doesn't want to be at?

I knew you'd understand.

Oh, boy.

Oh-ho, there's the birthday boy!

I've got just the thing to help get you into the party mood!

Cue lights.

Ladies and gentlemen,

grand illusionist,

Master of the Arcane Nik Nokturne!

Spelled with two K's,

'cause I made the C's... disappear!

Oh, if there's one thing I hate more than birthday parties,

it's birthday party magicians. Ugh!

Well, good thing he's an illusionist, then!

Choose your destiny.

The card's in his pocket next to a dove.

You're not helping!

You, nonbeliever,

come forth to experience real magic!

Behold, the Abyss Box!

Nope.

But, Uncle Scrooge, you have to!

For the party.

Oh, fine.

Who knows what mysteries wait inside?

To be clear, you want me

to hide inside this trap door in here?

Embrace the pull of the darkness!

I call upon the spirits...

The party has just begun!

Aah! My beautiful, beautiful box!

Say whaaat?

What a trick!

Oh, no, no, no! Maybe I can fix it!

I don't think that was the trick.

Hang on. Our dear old Uncle Scrooge

would never go anywhere without...

his precious wallet!

Scrooge isn't just gone,

he's gone missing!

Take that thing off! Our uncle has been captured!

Aha! Just as I suspected!

We're locked in!

That means the kidnapper is still in this very room.

Clear the party schedule. Things just got interesting!

- Ahem. Hubert, a word. - What are you doing?

This isn't the time for some dumb party game.

You're right. It's time for the ultimate party game,

a locked room mystery party!

And the stakes couldn't be higher.

- Uncle Scrooge's love of parties... - Uncle Scrooge's life...

Wait, what did you say?

We gotta solve the mystery and find Scrooge

so he can experience the true joy

of a flawless birthday party.

And, you know, not possibly die?

Yes, of course, and that,

but if we succeed and have a good time doing it,

Scrooge may have experienced

the most amazing party of all time!

Shouldn't we call somebody?

But who can you call when everyone is a suspect?

Come on, boys, the party game is afoot!

Oh, I hate this already.

Oh, yeah!

You can't get that helmet off, can you?

Oh, no.

Ladies and gentlemen, you are no longer guests.

You are now suspects

in the disappearance of Scrooge McDuck.

How fitting, since our prime suspect

is a master of making things disappear.

Nik Nokturne?

Hmm?

You accuse me?

I'm merely a messenger of the Dark Arts.

Who had the motive?

Scrooge was making fun of you.

And the means.

That dumb box thingy?

Nik Nokturne is a professional.

I can handle a little heckling.

Is that so?

Couldn't hack it as a birthday clown, huh?

Ooh, nice hood, hood guy!

Hey, why don't you make like anyone's interested

- in you and disappear? - Is this your card?

- Is this your card? - Is this your card?

Whoa! Aah! Ohh...

Beagle Boy!

And where there's a Beagle Boy, there must be...

Ma!!!

Oh, for crying out loud!

Ma Beagle!

Gasp!

I always gotta do everything myself!

Rwarrr!

- Rwarrr! - I can't believe

I'm stuck in here with you morons!

That's right, fools.

Nik Nokturne was really me,

Black Arts Beagle!

This was all part of our sinister plan.

Together, we would pull off the greatest illusion of all!

Shut it, Black Arts.

I would bewilder you mere mortals

with my mystical powers.

Shut it, Black Arts.

But it would all be a distraction.
