DuckTales

Mr. Zee, I present to you Haveyouseenium!

A wondrous rare element uncovered by my research team

in the mines of Insubstantia.

Observe!

Fantastic!

I am, aren't I? Do we have a deal?

Absolutely. I'll take the entire mine.

This deal will make you a very rich man, Mr. McDuck.

No, Mr. Zee.

This deal officially makes me the Richest Duck in the World!

Whoo-hoo!

Well, I'm glad you're so happy for me.

Whoo-hoo-hoo!

I'm no longer the Richest Person in the World!

The curse is over!

Sorry, what's this about a curse?

The curse that follows the Richest Person on Earth.

He cannot be bought, he cannot be fought.

Though riches you've got, your life will be fraught,

until you have earned the one thing you have not.

Who is "he"?

The Bombie.

Good luck! No take backs!

Aah!

Richest!

*DUCKTALES (2017)* Season 02 Episode 23 Title: "The Richest Duck in the World"

Uncle Scrooge? Hi! Thanks for coming.

Uh, to breakfast?

So, do you remember that bet that you made with Glomgold

where the winner won the loser's fortune

and, technically, I won both your fortunes

so that I could give it back to you?

It was yesterday.

You said I'd be a bigger billionaire

than you are one day,

and, well, today is a day and...

What are you trying to say, lad?

I'm keeping it all so I can be

the Richest Duck in the World!

You are going to be the Richest Duck in the World?!

- Yes? - Oh, sure!

It's just a complex international conglomeration.

You love hard work!

Ha! Have fun.

I'll be here when you're ready to give my fortune back.

That went far better than expected.

Of course it did, Owlson.

I have worked hard for three whole months!

I deserve this.

It's time to get down to business!

Huh!

The business of being crazy rich!

Much better. I'm the Richest Duck in the World!

Whoo-hoo!

Hey, Penny. It's Della. Again.

Thought you Moonlanders would be here to visit by now.

I stocked up the fridge,

I got air mattresses for everybody.

And I know I shouldn't have,

but I got you something special.

Eh?

Don't you want to come spar with this?

Ooh! Hey! These are the kids!

Huey, Dewey, and I tried to get Louie,

but his assistant said that he was in the middle of a "complex business deal"?

So this is Webby, the boys' charmingly violent best friend.

She's like their you!

- Hyah! - What is this?

Sending a message to my friends back on the Moon.

This is beaming out to the galaxy?!

Yup! They were supposed to follow right after me,

but I haven't heard from them.

So I've been sending them transmissions like I sent you.

The ones I sent you from the Moon?

Hundreds of hours of heartfelt lessons

that gave me hope and purpose?

We did not get those.

Huh!

It's fine! Everything's fine!

Yah!

Ugh! Now I've got no camera

and no way to get a message to the Moon.

If only we knew someone with camera equipment

- or a TV set-up, or... - Ohhhhh!

Oh, no.

What? What did I say?

There's no stopping it now.

- Ohhh! - Stopping what now?

Live, from Earth, it's the first ever intergalactic episode

of Dewey Dew-Nite. In Space!

Space space space...

Oh.

You have a 9 o'clock call with your investors

and a 9:15 with the Prime Minister of Henmark, and...

Wow, that suit is bright.

Emeralds, the "gentleman's gem."

You gotta dress for success, and I am very successful now.

In fact, send out a memo,

everyone in the building should be wearing emeralds.

Right. You have a check-in at 9:47,

- a loan-out at 9:49... - Just hang on...

Just gotta get comfortable here.

You're ringing the opening bell at the NASQUACK.

If only there was something I could put my feet up on,

some kind of furniture for your feet!

What's happening?

The greatest reunion in television history!

- Randy. - Johnny.

You see, Randy thought he was too handsome

to build ottomans on their reality show.

And Johnny never got over his brother's betrayal.

I swore I'd never work with him again.

Not for all the money in the world.

I'll give you 100 million dollars.

What?!

Let's get tufting!

Now let the rich life of Louie Duck begin!

The Board wants to see you.

We need to discuss the "Ottoman Incident."

It's great isn't it? It was not cheap though.

And how exactly does this ottoman benefit the company?

I wanted it, and I'm very rich, so...

This is a business, not a bank account!

That money has to come from somewhere.

Then figure it out. That is what I pay you to do, right?

Hmm. We are spending a lot on magical defense

on a dark, mysterious island in the Heron Sea.

Great! Cut that!

Now, let the rich life of Louie Duck begin...

There's an emergency on your island in the Heron Sea!

But... but...

Ohh... Fine.

But when I get back, I am going to live it up!

Uhh! Louie wants to do my job?

Then I'll be as lazy as him

until he's ready to give my company back.

Perhaps a bit of the old boob tube

will help keep my mind off...

Is that my office?!

Yup, nothing like a good honest hard day's work.

Work, work, work.

You know if I didn't have work,

I'd probably waste away into obscurity.

Mm! Right.

I can't just sit here relaxing!

Nothing worse than doing nothin' all day

I'll get started on a new fortune!

This is your captain, Launchpad, speaking.

Approaching a mysterious, mist-shrouded island.

Should be crashing within the hour.

Thank you, Mannington.

This page bores me.

Maybe so we don't die, we can use this time

to go over everything we know about this island?

Mm! -

We know nothing about this island.

It is so secret that Scrooge had it removed

from maps and satellite images.

If we're to survive...

Buh buh buh buh buh!

Owlson, quit worrying!

There's nothing on this island that I can't handle.

I am the Richest Duck in the World!

Whoo whoo whoo!

Richest!

Hm. Not really the private rich guy island I was hoping for.

Eh, put in a white sand beach over there,

a private lagoon over here. Maybe a water slide?

Or is that too tacky? I'm not sure.

Why would Scrooge invest so much money

in protecting this creepy pile of pillars?

That's why!

He was hiding a secret money bin!

Oof!

So Dewey has his own show?

Mostly in his mind.

Now, fresh from being

lost in space for a decade,

put your flippers or whatever Moon people have

together for Della Duck!

Mom. Can I call you "Mom"?

I am your mom.

Great. You were stuck on the moon

for, like, a really long time.

Any funny stories about that?

Oh, yeah! In the cruel void of space,

it's easy to lose track of time.

So one morning, I decided to have

a staring contest in the mirror.

But I was so desperate for human connection,
