DuckTales (2017) S2 E6 "Last Christmas!" Recap

In a nod to Mickey's Christmas Carol , the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future come to see Scrooge... but not for the reasons you might expect.

  • The '90s : Given Preteen Donald's grungy outfit - complete with a t-shirt that strongly resembles the Nirvana smiley face - it's possible this is when Dewey's encounter takes place.
  • Abandoned Camp Ruins : When Dewey and Young Donald go to find Della who’s supposed to be camping out for Santa, all they find is her half-collapsed tent and a red splatter on a tree trunk.
  • Actor Allusion : Being annoyed with Christmas Past's time travel jokes, Scrooge frowns and says "Ugh, time travellers". David Tennant 's most famous role was a time traveller .
  • Adaptational Jerkass : The Ghost of Christmas Past takes on an antagonistic role, being a non-romantic Crazy Jealous Guy who tries to trap Scrooge in the past so that the old duck won't ever leave him for his family.
  • Adaptational Nice Guy : The Ghost of Christmas Future, while still having a menacing look resembling The Grim Reaper , is much friendlier than any previous incarnation. Of course, that could just be because he's off the clock.
  • Adaptational Species Change : Christmas Present is represented an anthropomorphic pig rather than Willie the Giant as he was in Mickey's Christmas Carol .
  • All Girls Want Bad Boys : The young Bentina Beakley doesn't care much for the cheerful Christmas Present's flirting, but she finds Christmas Future's dark cloak and grim appearance pretty appealing. Present Beakley still seems to feel the same way, as she gives Christmas Future a flirty look.
  • Ambiguously Jewish : Launchpad's ugly Christmas sweater has a menorah on it. However, it's never established whether he's Jewish or simply acquired a sweater for the wrong holiday (which wouldn't be a stretch for his character).
  • Ambiguous Situation : When everyone returns to the current time period, Donald greets Dewey with a hug and says "Welcome back," implying that his extensive adventuring experiences include remembering a time traveling Dewey, but Dewey is swept away by the rest of the family before he can respond.
  • Anthropomorphic Shift : Inverted with Christmas Past, who looks more insect-like than his Mickey's Christmas Carol counterpart Jiminy Cricket, having wings and long antennae.
  • Art Shift : The end credits show the episode's events in a different, "classic Disney" visual style, with soft, round designs instead of the show's usual angular ones.
  • Batman Can Breathe in Space : Just like in "The Shadow War!", Della is on the moon's surface without a spacesuit while repairing the Spear of Selene. Granted, this does get explained in " What Ever Happened To Della Duck ".
  • Beary Friendly : The series' version of Santa Claus is a polar bear, if the giant animatronic version of him is anything to go by. Although Scrooge has other opinions of him .
  • Be Careful What You Wish For : Downplayed Trope . Scrooge finally gets his break from his family and responsibilities thanks to Past, but immediately becomes bored by it and decides to go home.
  • The Ghost of Christmas Past learns the hard way that while Scrooge may want a break from his family at times, that does not mean you should try to keep him from them forever. Scrooge abandons the ghost in the past and leaves him to rot for what he did. Here's the lesson: Don't try to keep Scrooge McDuck from his family . It will never end well for you.
  • In a Continuity Nod , mentioning Santa Claus will evoke genuine rage out of Scrooge. Still no explanation why. Scrooge : That churlish chimney-chaser is not to be trusted!
  • Young Donald wails on the Wendigo after he breaks his guitar.
  • Young Della really hates being called "Dumbella" and won't let Young Donald and Dewey out of the net until he apologizes, even as a Wendigo barrels down on all three ducklings. Subverted , as it turns out she was actually trying to get him to realise that he'd left her alone on Christmas.
  • Big "NO!" : Scrooge confesses that he doesn't hate Christmas as much as he lets on, but when Dewey asked about Santa, he screeches out "NO!" and insults the man.
  • Big, Thin, Short Trio : Even the Beagle Boys of the past follow this pattern: Bankjob is the big one, Bugle is the thin one and Babyface is the short one.
  • Blah, Blah, Blah : As Donald's rant to Della lapses into his typical Angrish , she brushes him off saying "Squawk, squawk, squawk!"
  • Blame Game : When Scrooge furiously asks who put up the giant Santa animatronic, everyone points at Louie while Louie points at Huey.
  • A Bloody Mess : What looks like a blood stain on a tree near Young Della's campsite turns out to be spilled jelly. Much to Dewey's disgust, Young Donald insists on licking it to confirm. Young Donald: It's just jelly. Dewey: And what would you have done if it wasn't ?
  • Blues Rock : When Dewey snatches Emo Donald's electric guitar and makes it out of tune, Donald starts strumming it into sounding like a blues guitar riff, music that Donald actually realizes sounds good.
  • Book Ends : Early in the episode, Dewey is sitting alone in his room and says "Merry Christmas, mom." while looking at an old family photo. At the end of the episode, Della is shown alone on the moon looking at a copy of that very same photo and says "Merry Christmas, you guys. See you soon."
  • Bowdlerize : The Wendigo is described as a person who went mad and transformed into a monster due to their obsession and desperation instead of through committing cannibalism as in the traditional myths.
  • Bread, Eggs, Milk, Squick : Scrooge needs a break from his family, his business, and keeping the world-eating serpent Jörmungandr at bay.
  • When first meeting Donald, Dewey calls himself "Bluey" in an attempt to mask his identity.
  • As Beakley dances, the crowd chants "22" i.e. her secret agent code name.
  • Teen Donald plays the guitar. We know from an earlier episode that in college he'd join a band named "The Three Caballeros".
  • Calling the Old Man Out : Dewey does this to his uncle, or rather the past version of him, and tells him off for ignoring his sister and being selfish when all Della wanted was to spend Christmas with him.
  • The Cameo : In the past Christmas party, Goldie O'Gilt is seen descending the stairs, although Scrooge is blocked by the many guests wanting his attention.
  • Young Donald is voiced by Russi Taylor in the same voice she uses for the triplets in most other Disney works with them, including the original DuckTales (1987) .
  • This isn't the first time Bill Fagerbakke has played a big pink, cheerful guy in green clothes. He also plays Patrick on SpongeBob SquarePants .
  • Caught in a Snare : While running away from the Wendigo, Dewey and Young Donald get caught in one of the snare traps Della had set for Santa.
  • Past-Scrooge wears the same bowler hat as he did in "The Confidential Casefiles of Agent 22!"
  • The Ghost of Christmas Past subtly points to Scrooge skipping the ghosts to spend time with his family, which happened last season when he went with them to Mount Neverrest .
  • Crazy Jealous Guy : The Ghost of Christmas Past is a non-romantic example. He grew tired of all the people he taught a lesson no longer needing him, and traps Scrooge in the distant past so that they will be together forever.
  • Creative Closing Credits : Done in the same style as the opening credits of Mickey's Christmas Carol .
  • Dark Is Not Evil : The Ghost of Christmas Future looks like The Grim Reaper (and gets mistaken for the actual Grim Reaper by Dewey), but he's quite nice and friendly.
  • Derivative Differentiation : The Christmas Past ghost looks like Jiminy Cricket but isn't him unlike Mickey's Christmas Carol . The reason as Frank Angones pointed out was that the darker take on the character would have been out of character for Jiminy and inappropriate for a character considered a Disney mascot of unblemished sincerity.
  • Did Not Think This Through : Donald decides to set up rows of Christmas lights on the mansion lawn. Scrooge reminds Donald that Launchpad can't tell the difference between Christmas decorations and a landing strip. Cue Donald scrambling to remove them and an off-screen crash.
  • Didn't See That Coming : Scrooge believed that the Ghost of Christmas Past was teaching him a lesson about what Christmas is all about (since that's the Christmas spirits' job). He was surprised that the spirit was actually planning on trapping him in a time loop so that he would never leave him for his family again.
  • Disproportionate Retribution : Young Della refuses to cut Young Donald and Dewey out of the net even while the Wendigo is almost upon them, all because Donald called her "Dumbella". Downplayed in that the actual reason for this was that she wanted to hear an apology from her brother hiding himself away rather than being with his sister on Christmas.
  • Don't Explain the Joke : Ghost of Christmas Present : And I thought we had spirit...get it? Because we're ghosts!
  • Drinking Contest : Dewey walks in on Scrooge having an eggnog-drinking contest with the Christmas spirits.
  • Dramatic Irony : After spending much of Christmas Eve night brooding in his room, Teen Donald promises Teen Della they won't spend any more Christmases apart. Sadly, both Dewey and the audience know this isn't true .
  • Easily Forgiven : Granted, the Ghost of Christmas Past did deserve it, but for a time traveling spirit who got his time-traveling umbrella stolen, was left in the woods for decades by Scrooge, and became a wendigo due to his obsession and desperation, he is very quick to forgive Scrooge after the latter cracks his shell.
  • Egopolis : Grandpappy Beagle used to call the now city of Duckburg as Beagleburg.
  • Expy : The three spirits that visit Scrooge strongly resemble those from Mickey's Christmas Carol , but instead of actually being Jiminy Cricket as Christmas Past, Willie the Giant as Christmas Present, and Pete as Christmas Future, they just bear a strong resemblance to them. Christmas Present in particular is a pig-man instead of a giant. However, their costumes are the same.
  • Expy Coexistence : Scrooge McDuck is named after Ebenezer Scrooge of A Christmas Carol , though not especially based on him. It's heavily implied that the original Scrooge also exists in this show's universe, and the Christmas Spirits met Scrooge McDuck after mistaking him for the other Scrooge . Past even implies that Ebenezer is too busy with Tiny Tim to hang with him anymore.
  • Explain, Explain... Oh, Crap! : Dewey realizes Della is mad at Donald for not spending Christmas with his family, and in the middle of explaining this realizes he's doing the same thing as Donald .
  • Foolish Sibling, Responsible Sibling : Contrasting with their present selves, Della and Donald switched roles over time. When they were young, Della was the responsible sibling, while Donald was the foolish one.
  • When Scrooge tires of his past self's party and asks to be taken home to his family, the Ghost of Christmas Past lets out a Big "NO!" before composing himself and offering an alternative.
  • Della's copy of the family photo has weird drawings on the back, the origin of which won't be seen until the next episode.
  • Forgiveness : Scrooge forgives the Ghost of Christmas Past for trying to keep him all to himself, upon seeing that he had turned into a wendigo as a result of being left alone in the woods for years. In turn, Christmas Past forgives Scrooge for abandoning him after the latter returns him to normal.
  • Four-Legged Insect : The Ghost of Christmas Past is an anthropomorphic cricket. While he's much more insect-like than Jiminy Cricket , with a segmented abdomen, wings, and long antennae, he still has only four limbs.
  • Generation Xerox : Dewey was like Donald at the same age: constantly moping about personal problems and issues rather than spending time with those that love him.
  • Genre Savvy : Donald and Della know perfectly well the dangers having knowledge from the future can do to the timeline, and stop Dewey from spilling anything. Teen Donald: Haven't you ever seen any movie?
  • Glowing Eyes of Doom : When Dewey and Donald are walking through the forest looking for Della, the camera pans up to show that they’re being watched by a giant creature with glowing green eyes.
  • Go Mad from the Isolation : Part of what causes the Ghost of Christmas Past to turn into a Wendigo, after being left alone in the past by Scrooge.
  • Good Is Not Soft : While it's questionable if Scrooge intended for the Ghost of Christmas Past to suffer so much, and readily reconciles when given the opportunity, he makes no apology for leaving him alone in the past either given what the spirit tried to do to him.
  • Graceful Landing, Clumsy Landing : When Della cuts the rope to the trap, she and Donald both land on their feet, ready for action. Dewey meanwhile falls to the ground in a heap tangled in the net.
  • The Grinch : Scrooge seems to live up to his namesake, calling Christmas nothing but commercialism and misplaced sentiment, flying into an absurd rage at an ornamental Santa Claus. He doesn't actually believe this , it's just a facade so he'll be left to party with his friends. To clarify, he doesn't hate Christmas, but he does have a problem with Santa (he knows what he did). Scrooge does , however, come to realize it's still missing the point of the holiday to dodge your family.
  • Grunge : Young Donald has this affect, with his Kurt Cobain style plaid shirt-jacket and Brand X Nirvana Smiley Face T-shirt.
  • Guile Hero : Rather than keep fighting a battle with Past that he isn't certain he can win, Scrooge opts to trick the spirit into sending them back to a few minutes ago when he knows he'll have a chance to grab the spirit's time traveling tool.
  • High-Pressure Emotion : When the Wendigo makes him land on his guitar and break it in half, Donald turns red from the neck up and a tea kettle whistle is heard.
  • Hijacked by Ganon : Within the episode. In Scrooge's arc, the antagonist is the Ghost of Christmas Past, who wants to trap Scrooge in the past, but gets outsmarted by Scrooge midway through the episode. In Dewey and Donald's arc, the antagonist is a Wendigo that attacks them. At the end of the episode, it is revealed that the two antagonists are one and the same: the ghost got turned into a Wendigo while desperately searching for Scrooge.
  • Hope Spot : When Della and Donald figure out that Dewey is from the future, Dewey is relieved to drop the act. He's about to warn them about the Spear of Selene and save his mother, but the twins shut him up and say he'll mess up the time stream. Dewey is forced to accept that logic.
  • I Can Explain : The last words Louie writes into his letter to Santa before Scrooge interrupts him.
  • I Just Want to Have Friends : More specifically, "Friends who Won't Leave." This is Past's motive for holding Scrooge hostage in the Christmases of the past, so they can hang out forever rather than Scrooge learn the True Meaning of Christmas and never spend time with the ghosts again.
  • Scrooge realizes that abandoning his family at Christmas time is not acceptable, especially since family is among life's excitements. At the same time, Dewey realizes he's been wallowing in his bitterness and ignoring his family when all they wanted is to spend Christmas with him, the same thing young Donald was doing.
  • Scrooge has a minor one when he realizes just how desperate the ghost of Christmas Past became after Scrooge stranded him in the past.
  • Kid from the Future : Dewey goes back in time to meet his mother Della, and also runs into his uncle Donald. Dewey claims to be a distant cousin named " Bluey ", which Donald seemingly buys, but Della immediately concludes that he's a relative from the future . Although considering Donald didn't react at all when Della asserts that Dewey's from the future and just brushes off Dewey's protests with "Please. We're the Duck family," it's possible Donald already suspected/figured it out and just didn't bother to call Dewey on it.
  • Lampshade Hanging : In the past, Dewey spins a line about being a very distant relative. Young Donald remarks how annoyed and confused he is by their extended family.
  • Malicious Misnaming : Donald, when angry at Della, calls her " Dumbella ".
  • Mistaken Identity : At the party in the past, Duckworth finds Scrooge and, knowing nothing about him being from the future, informs him that he has more important affairs at the party than festivity, throwing him to the board of directors.
  • Monster Modesty : The Wendigo wears a Loincloth . What's odd about this is that his original form, the Ghost of Christmas Past, was a Half-Dressed Cartoon Animal with no pants.
  • Mouse Trap : Mrs. Beakley puts out some mouse traps with pieces of holly in them to catch Sugar Plum Fairies and Scrooge, of course, ends up stepping on one.
  • The Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future show great resemblance to their counterparts in Mickey's Christmas Carol , though not actually "played" by their original "actors" Jiminy Cricket, Willie the Giant, and Pete: Past is an anthropomorphic cricket carrying an umbrella; Present is a large, fat person with a Simpleton Voice (although a pig rather than a human-like giant, to follow the show's "no humans" rule); and Future is a gigantic, menacing, hooded cat figure.
  • When traveling through time, Scrooge is hanging off of Past's foot (with the rest of the spirits then hanging off his foot).
  • Scrooge angrily exclaims "Bah, humbug!", which was Ebenezer Scrooge's Character Catchphrase . Lampshaded by Webby. Webby: [delighted] He said it!
  • The title cards for the end credits are done in the same style as the original short film's opening credits.
  • Beakley has set up a movie to play later titled Christmas on Bear Mountain , the name of the comic book story where Scrooge McDuck debuted.
  • One of the guests at Scrooge's party in the past is Captain Farley Foghorn (an even bigger Captain Crash than Launchpad) from the original series.
  • One of the Beagle Boys who raid the party is the original Burger Beagle's design (called Babyface here), as well as Bankjob and Bugle. They all wear six-digit prison numbers on their shirt, like they did in the original comics and the 1987 cartoon. note  Bankjob, Babyface and Bugle appeared in a few episodes of the original show too, seemingly a second group of Beagle Boys to avoid overuse of the main group.
  • Another guest at the party is one Rhutt Betlah, who seeks funding from Scrooge for an expedition to the Andes to find more "square rocks", a reference to the Carl Barks story Lost in the Andes and the famous square eggs.
  • Young Donald says the triplets' catchphrase from the 80's cartoon, "Quack-a-roony!"
  • Young Donald calls Della "Dumbella" as an insult, at one point. Dumbella was the name she was referred to in her animated debut (unseen, only communicating through a letter), in 1938 short Donald's Nephews , as the creators of that feature were unaware that she had already been named Della in the 1937 comic strip that first introduced Huey, Dewey and Louie. In the comics, "Dumbella" was later retconned into being her nickname.
  • Young Donald complains, "This is the most confusing family," a shot at the rather elaborate family tree created by Carl Barks.
  • Scrooge bouncing off of the Wendigo with his cane is a pretty clear reference to the NES game .
  • Dewey hugging a child version of his mother echoes a similar moment from Don Rosa's "The Dream of a Lifetime" (otherwise known as the proto- Inception comic) where it's Donald who hugs his mother Hortense as a little girl.
  • My Future Self and Me : When Scrooge travels into the past, he briefly says hello to his younger version before entering, who returns the greeting.
  • National Animal Stereotypes : Santa Claus is portrayed as a polar bear, as they are both known to live at the North Pole.
  • According to Beakley, McDuck Manor has been infested with "sugar plum fairies" during Christmas (hence the mousetraps).
  • Combining with Offscreen Moment of Awesome , Scrooge is apparently responsible for secretly keeping the world-eating serpent Jörmungandr at bay. This one becomes a Resolved Noodle Incident in the Season 3 episode "The Rumble for Ragnarok!".
  • We are also still given no clue as to what Scrooge's beef with Santa is all about. This one is also resolved in a Season 3 episode, "How Santa Stole Christmas!".
  • If a relative visiting from the future while a spirit of obsession attacks the mansion is only the fourth weirdest thing that's happened to the young Donald and Della on Christmas, what were the top three?
  • Whatever Louie feels he must (and claims he can) explain in his letter to Santa. Considering that Louie is a Schemer to the point where he's known as the evil triplet , it's likely more than just one incident and probably includes various incidents of questionable morality from prior episodes as well.
  • "Not So Different" Remark : Dewey tells Donald that Della was mad at him because he had locked himself up in his room, being antisocial. As he explains, he realizes that he had been doing the exact same thing earlier ( later? ), and will have to do some apologizing when he gets back.
  • Oh, Crap! : Dewey when Donald says, "Welcome back."
  • Once More, with Clarity : The second half of the episode reveals that Dewey hitched a ride with Scrooge and the spirits as they traveled through time. During the flight, he slips and almost drags them down, which explains why Scrooge is seen dipping earlier.
  • One-Steve Limit : Averted. The spirits met Scrooge McDuck when looking for a different Scrooge , but the one they found was far more fun.
  • Our Ghosts Are Different : And the difference is noticeable between Duckworth and the three ghosts. The Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future are supernatural beings, yet have corporeal forms, whereas Duckworth is completely incorporeal and intangible, like the dead McDuck spirits.
  • Pals with Jesus : Scrooge is friends with the spirits of Christmas Past, Present, and Future, and spends the holiday with them at the best Christmas parties in history.
  • Pokémon Speak : Subverted. It seems like the Wendigo can only say "Wendigo", but it's actually saying "When'd He Go?" because it's The Ghost of Christmas Past looking for Scrooge.
  • Power Glows : When the Ghost of Christmas Past gets into fighting mode his whole body lights up. The umbrella also lights up whenever activated for time travel.
  • Predecessor Villain : Grandpa Beagle and his sons Bankjob, Bugle and Babyface are this to Ma Beagle and her sons Bigtime, Burger and Bouncer.
  • When Donald walks in on the Blame Game , he takes notice of what's going on and, without as much as a comment, backtracks out of the shot.
  • When he is unable to fight the Ghost of Christmas Past who plans to trap him in the past with him, Scrooge tricks the spirit so he can take his time-travelling umbrella and hightail out of there.
  • Della and Donald correctly deduce that Dewey is a relative from the future , mentioning that he was only the fourth weirdest thing that's happened to them on Christmas (and that's potentially including the Wendigo he helped them stop).
  • Similarly, past-Scrooge reacts to his future self crashing his party with nothing more than a polite tip of the hat.
  • As soon as the Wendigo calls out for Scrooge in response to Della asking it what it wants, she, Donald, and Dewey all respond with a dull, "Of course."
  • Self-Empowerment Anthem : Donald is trying to write a song that attacks the world for constantly making fun of his voice: I say go but you say stay You can't tell me what to do Don't understand a word I say So phooey, phooey, phooey on you.
  • Set Right What Once Went Wrong : Once Dewey gets the idea, he immediately tries to warn his mother about her fate and save her from it. Unfortunately, if he warns his mother, then he creates a paradox, so he's forced to let her go.
  • Posters on Donald's bedroom wall include duckified versions of Weezer 's Weezer (The Blue Album) and Nirvana 's Nevermind cover art (with an egg taking the place of the baby).
  • The Wendigo's apparent tendency to say its own name likely refers to the Marvel Comics version. His design is also basically a Funny Animal variant of the Marvel version: a large, muscular humanoid covered in white fur, with claws, sharp teeth, goat horns and a long tail.
  • Launchpad's version of The Twelve Days of Christmas includes Seven Samurai .
  • Young Donald's original plan for Christmas was to spend it in his room, writing one great song . He even writes it on an electric guitar that gets de-tuned by Dewey.
  • Simpleton Voice : Bill Fagerbakke uses the same slow, deep voice for the Ghost of Christmas Present as he does for Patrick Star .
  • Skewed Priorities : Young Della is more concerned with Young Donald giving her an apology right when there's a monster about to kill them.
  • Well, slow er path, at any rate. When Scrooge takes the Ghost of Christmas Past's time-travelling umbrella, the Ghost is left to linger for the next few decades and becomes the Wendigo, only to be found, picked up, and returned to the present when Scrooge finds Dewey.
  • When Scrooge and Dewey return, Donald greets Dewey with "Welcome back ". Dewey is confused as he catches the implication Donald remembers his childhood encounter with "Bluey" and knows exactly what his nephew has been up to.
  • Smug Smiler : Scrooge has a smug grin on his face as he swipes the Ghost of Christmas Past's time-travelling umbrella from him and uses it to escape the past.
  • Special Edition Title : Reflecting its Christmas theming, the Title Sequence and theme music are altered to be more holiday themed, with snowfall being projected over some of the shots, the show's title being draped in Christmas lights, and an alternate swing band style version of the theme song along with a Frank Sinatra soundalike on vocals: Life is like a candy-cane Here in Duckburg Snowflakes, presents, Santa's sleigh It's a duck-blur Might make bells jingle Or trap Kris Kringle! DuckTales ! Woo-oo! Christmas Eve, we're out there makin' DuckTales ! Woo-oo! Tales of Christmas Past And Yuletide luck tales! Woo-oo!
  • Stable Time Loop : Dewey visiting his mom and uncle in the past is what brought them together and closer. Since that very moment, Donald and Della spent every Christmas together until Della's tragic trip into space, which is why Donald is rather sad in the present.
  • Stealth Pun : Beakley, a secret agent, turns down the advances of the Ghost of Christmas Present, but aggressively pursues Christmas Future. Clearly, she flirts with death.
  • Sticky Fingers : During Goldie's brief appearance at the first McDuck Enterprises Christmas party, she can be seen shoving a candle holder into her purse .
  • Sudden Anatomy : When Scrooge tells Dewey that Santa cannot be trusted, his eyes briefly gain visible irises.
  • This Is My Side : In the past, Donald and Della share a bedroom with their interests clearly shown (Donald's rock music paraphernalia and Della's world map and artifacts) but kept away from the other.
  • Thrill Seeker : It takes seconds for Scrooge to grow bored of the peace and quiet when he finally gets it, realizing that the frustrations of life that he was trying to get away from actually brings in the excitement.
  • Time Travel for Fun and Profit : Scrooge and the Christmas spirits use Past's time traveling umbrella to visit history's greatest Christmas parties. Dewey on the other hand, wanted to see his mom on Christmas.
  • Time-Travel Tense Trouble : The caption for the Once More, with Clarity scene says "11 minutes ago... in the future".
  • Tragic Dream : Dewey wanted to have his mom on Christmas, so he goes to the past to spend time with her. When she realizes he's a future relative, he tries to warn her about her fate, but denies him for it would disrupt the time stream. Dewey decides to cherish this one moment with his mom, but it means seeing his mom again would once again be out of his reach.
  • Tranquil Fury : When Scrooge comes across the giant figure of Santa Claus, he quietly and furiously asks everyone "Who put this up?"
  • Trapped in the Past : This is what Christmas Past wants to do to Scrooge - and what happens to him when Scrooge steals his time-traveling umbrella.
  • The Twelve Spoofs of Christmas : On the twelfth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me Twelve days of Christmas Eleven planes a-flying Ten days of Christmas Eight days of Christmas Oops, forgot the ninth day Seven Samurai Six comes after seven Lots of Christmas daaaaaays! Four Christmas days Three Christmas days Two Christmas days And a cartridge of printer ink!
  • Scrooge goes berserk on the giant Santa figure put up in his mansion. It was most likely NOT part of his Jerkass facade.
  • Donald gives the wendigo a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown when he breaks his guitar.
  • Wendigo : Dewey, Donald and Della encounter one who is after Scrooge. They describe it as "poor souls turned into monsters by obsession and desperation", and it is portrayed resembling a muscular goat-man with Glowing Eyes of Doom , sharp teeth, clawed hands and three-toed theropod-like feet. It turns out to be the Ghost of Christmas Past, driven mad after Scrooge left him behind in the past. He gets better once Scrooge breaks through the creature's shell and reconciles with the spirit.
  • When Past reveals his true colors and didn't send them into the past to teach Scrooge an asesop about the holidays. Scrooge : Spirit, take me home. Past: No.
  • The line revealing who and what the Wendigo actually is: Wendigo: When'd he go?! Scrooooooge!
  • Says present-day Donald: "Welcome back."
  • The episode ends on Della, in the present, constructing something in her ship's wreckage on the moon. Della: Merry Christmas, you guys. See you soon.
  • What the Hell, Hero? : Della makes both Donald and Dewey realize that the two have been selfishly avoiding their relatives during the Christmas season.
  • Yet Another Christmas Carol : With a twist. Turns out Scrooge doesn't actually hate Christmas, but he makes it seem like he does so he can have some time to himself to relax and enjoy himself. Additionally, the three ghosts are actually friends of his that he hangs out with every year. But, there is still a lesson about Christmas that he ends up realizing, and how he only thought of himself and he learns it on his own . Another twist is that one of the spirits has a selfish motive, but he learns from it too.
  • You Can't Fight Fate : Even with time travel, Dewey can't save Della without invoking a paradox.

Time-travel shenanigans allow DuckTales to shine in its chaotic element

“timephoon” works on essentially every level: slick and stylish animation, exciting sequences, and growing tension between two rich characters..

Time-travel shenanigans allow DuckTales to shine in its chaotic element

There’s two main ways an episode of DuckTales can get a high grade. The first way is to establish a significant development in an ongoing arc, hitting its dramatic/aesthetics beats with honest fervor, strong pacing, and a satisfying catharsis, positive or negative. The second way is to do a one-off episode that’s running on all creative cylinders, per se: even if the overall story doesn’t advance, the dramatic, comedic, action, and narrative momentum all run smoothly and seamlessly together, with well-executed sound cues, sharp animation, and a great score to tie it all together. But sometimes we get something like “Timephoon!”–an episode that manages to do both those things at once. If last Friday’s episode struggled with some moments because everything seemed off, this episode absolutely made sure everything was on .

“Timephoon!” has what might be Louie’s best idea yet for Louie, Inc.–at least theoretically: use Gyro’s time tub to travel back in time to “take” ancient artifacts before the traps/obstacles are built around them, or to bypass them completely. (Launchpad mentions that this could be misconstrued as stealing, but but the bottom line is that it’s all stealing , traps or no, but let’s not think too much about that). He returns on one particular trip and accidentally brings along Bubba, the infamous caveman from the original DuckTales .

  • The Dark Crystal and Labyrinth are getting special edition releases
  • Dear god, the Lord Of The Rings Gollum prequel is already getting longer

And Bubba is fine! He’s a fun, ridiculous character, and they didn’t change him too much from his original version. He’s still weirdly amendable to modern conveniences: skateboards, sunglasses, keytars. But the episode isn’t really about him, save for Huey’s crazed frustration that Bubba’s behavior doesn’t match the research he gathered on caveducks. Instead, this episode is about the time travel fallout of Louie’s scheme: the disruptions in the timeline combined with a dangerous storm are causing characters to randomly jump back and forth into the past/present.

As a regular, typical adventure, it works. It has Louie running a scam that goes out of control, but in a way that he couldn’t really predict, so it doesn’t come off as Louie being a greedy clod. It has the funny B-story of Huey losing his mind over Bubba’s comfort with contemporary bric-a-brac while Dewey and Webby gleefully accept it. It has a natural progression of escalating dangers and problems as more past figures appear in the present and, more horrifyingly, members of the Duck family (and Gyro) start zapping into the past.

It has a comfortable degree of self-awareness about the whole thing without getting bogged down in smarminess–both Scrooge and Ms. Beakley recognize immediately the time/space disruptions and jump to figure out how to fix things. And it has the background runner in which Della and Beakley argue over proper parenting, over how to best “discipline” the children, before the small problems they ostensibly cause grow into unwieldy, unmanageable bigger ones.

And that final point ends up being the real kicker to the entire episode. Look, I will be very honest and say that I had some real doubts that the creative team were actually aware of the understated discomfort/hostility that is present between Louie and Della. Or, more accurately, I figured they were treating it as a fleeting side reference that would easily somehow resolve itself by the end of the season with minimal commentary. But “Timephoon!” shows I was wrong. This episode pushes that element a bit more to the forefront: Della, after watching the chaos unfold around her, and watching her other children disappear in a shot of time-electricity, puts her foot down and ends Louie’s pursuits, including Louie Inc. This occurs, mind you, after an episode of watching Della’s lenient responses to the kids’ earlier behavior, and the generalized forgiveness that the rest of the Duck clan bestows on Louie’s actions. In that light, it’s stark and sudden, indicative of perhaps a significant change in Della’s character–but that it’s directly at Louie is telling. So his response, “I wonder who I got that from,” after Della’s accusation that he did what he did without considering the consequences or who he could hurt, absolutely hits hard, because it is, in so many ways, true. It even shocks the rest of the group.

“Timephoon!” works on essentially every level, from its slick and stylish animation (the animators are have so much fun with the facial expressions), to its exciting sequences (the Beakley/Della vs. ninja fight was so damn fun), to the growing tension that’s burgeoning between two rich characters. There’s three more episodes to go in the season–here’s hoping they can end strong!

Stray observations

  • One thing that strikes me odd about Bubba is that he very much acts like his original version, but the creators have been vocal about avoiding or tampering down the “lamer” aspects of the original show, like revamping Webby or Doofus, or “mine cart chases.” But by all accounts though, Bubba was/is kind of lame, but for here they kept his original characteristics around. My point is, the kinds of things the creators are changing wholesale versus the things they’re keeping, are feeling more and more arbitrary.
  • One really tricky thing DuckTales tries to do is allow its characters to be the bold, endearing, crazed adventurers they are, but at the same time, form narratives around regulating/controlling them (the concept of “a proper adventure” is meaningless if you think about it). Specifically, Louie doesn’t do anything egregiously worse than what Huey or Dewey has done in the past–or Della or Scrooge for that matter. That’s sort of why Louie’s backtalk to Della stings so much. Still, it’s hard to parse the line that DuckTales is trying to place between the kind of adventures that are worthwhile to go on versus the kind that require restrictions of some kind. I think the show is trying to narrow that through the specific opinions and stances of individual characters, but it has yet to commit to it.
  • Beakley says a little tough love makes them better people later. When Della asks if that’s true, Beakley responds that it worked on her. But I think the tone of that scene suggests that that’s not true. Is Della a better person? What does it even mean to be “a better person” within a family that’s defined by its embrace of dangerous, crazy adventures? She took Dewey on a death-defying question in the Arctic just a few weeks ago. It’s kind of clunky but admittedly I’m very intrigued where this goes.

Time Teasers

Time Teasers is the forty-third episode of DuckTales 1987 .

  • 3 Video releases

Synopsis [ ]

When Huey, Dewey, and Louie are late for breakfast one morning, Scrooge almost gives them a little pointer which they’ve already learned from him; "The early bird catches the worm" . Scrooge reminds the nephews that they have to make deliveries for Gyro’s Invention of the Month Club in the morning, but it conflicts with their plans to see the Duckburg Mallards' baseball game. Scrooge then tells the nephews that they need to help him with his inventory in the afternoon, filling up the rest of their schedule.

The nephews arrive at Gyro ’s at ten, just as the ballgame would’ve started. Gyro greets the nephews and shows them his featured invention for the Invention of the Month Club; a combination hairdryer/popcorn maker. He then shows the nephews his invention for the following month; a special stopwatch he calls the Time Teaser . Using the Time Teaser, Gyro disappears, and quickly reappears holding the nephews’ hats. Gyro explains that he was moving too fast for the nephews to notice, and gives them a hands-on demonstration by using the Time Teaser on himself and the nephews. From their perspective, the rest of the world appears to have stopped moving, although they’re just actually moving at a super-fast speed. Afterwards, when Gyro gets back to work, the nephews decide to use the Time Teaser so that they’ll have time to do their chores and see the ballgame.

The nephews use the Time Teaser to complete all their deliveries right away and then head to the stadium. Though they have to restart time to enjoy the game, the lousy Mallards are already losing 0-16, and it’s only the first inning. Huey then gets an idea; use the Time Teaser to help the Mallards so that they don’t strike out, and to sabotage the Garfield Ganders. The nephews help the Mallards out until the last inning, when Louie points out that the time is now 11:45, and that they need to be at the Money Bin by noon. Since the Mallards are now winning 32-16, Huey figures that there’s no way they can lose, and the nephews leave.

With the Time Teaser activated, the nephews catch Bankjob and Babyface robbing the ticket booth on their way out. They take advantage of this by returning the money, replacing Bankjob’s gun with a hot dog, tying their shoelaces, untying the guard and giving him the gun. When time restarts, the Beagle Boys are startled, and flee for their getaway car, where Bugle awaits them. Since they failed to rob the ticket booth, Bankjob suggests that they rob the Money Bin again.

At the Money Bin, the Beagle Boys see that movers are working about which gives Bankjob an idea. With one minute left until noon, the nephews use the Time Teaser to reach the Money Bin in time, where they startle Scrooge by restarting time as he dives into his money. Before the nephews can explain what’s going on, Gyro shows up. Dressed up as movers, the Beagle Boys pass through the Money Bin and into Scrooge’s office, where they eavesdrop on Gyro explaining the Time Teaser to Scrooge. Once Gyro gives a demonstration of the Time Teaser to Scrooge (and the Beagle Boys), Bankjob swipes it out of his hand, and uses it on himself and his brothers.

With time slowed down for them, the Beagle Boys empty the vault load by load, and are seemingly unstoppable. Eventually, the Beagle Boys load Scrooge’s entire fortune onto a steamboat, where they have to restart time in order to move the boat. Fortunately, the Beagle Boys left a trail of coins for Scrooge and the others to follow, which leads them to the docks. Bugle soon spots Scrooge and the others heading towards them in a motorboat, pressuring Bankjob into using the Time Teaser. Babyface however, wants a turn to use the Time Teaser, and gets into a fight with Bankjob. Bankjob drops the Time Teaser and it breaks, sending the Beagle Boys and the entire steamboat through a time warp.

Gyro explains that the Beagle Boys had to have been warped into another century, and sure enough, they are soon attacked by a pirate ship, led by Captain Blackheart . Though the advanced currency is of no value to the pirates, they take the Beagle Boys hostage regardless, and end up talking them into providing some entertainment for Captain Blackheart’s birthday party.

Back in the present, Gyro explains that the Beagle Boys burnt a hole in the fabric of time, and he uses his Time Thermometer to discover that they’ve gone back to 1687. He then uses his Time Tub to take Scrooge and the nephews back in time, where they find themselves face-to-face with the pirates. Captain Blackheart demands that they too serve as entertainment for his party, and on top of that, Gyro can’t seem to get the Time Tub working again.

That night, at Captain Blackheart's beach birthday party, Gyro theorizes that he might be able to send the entire ship back to the present if he hooks up the controls from the Time Tub. Scrooge and Gyro are the first to perform, but are quickly booed off the stage. While the nephews perform, Scrooge plots to have Gyro work with the Time Tub when the Beagle Boys perform, and promises not to leave them behind. While the Beagle Boys distract the pirates by singing classic songs all night, Gyro manages to hook up the controls to the ship by dawn.

When Scrooge signals the Beagle Boys with the foghorn, the pirates learn of their plan, and chase the Beagle Boys up a waterfall. Babyface falls down the waterfall, which seems likes the quickest route down, so Bankjob and Bugle join him. The Beagle Boys swim back to the ship as the pirates shoot at them, and just as Gyro pulls the lever, he experiences a short circuit. However, he manages to get the controls working and returns the ship to the present before the pirates can blast them.

Afterwards, Scrooge is relieved to have his money back in the Money Bin, and to have the Beagle Boys back in jail. While listening to the news, the reporter announces that the Ganders scored seventeen runs in the final inning, winning with a score of 33-32, meaning the nephews’ efforts to help them earlier turned out to be worthless.

Synopsis [ ]

Della Duck has faced every danger the moon has to offer to reunite with her family, but her greatest challenge is one she might not be able to fight her way out of.

After finally arriving to Earth after 10 years in the moon, Della Duck trespasses McDuck Mansion's door in order to reunite with her children. Upon coming to the door, Della, unsure of how to introduce herself to her children, tries to practice many ways to say hello. Meanwhile, inside the mansion, Scrooge McDuck , his grandnephews and Della's sons Huey, Dewey, and Louie , and their friend Webby Vanderquack , are preparing themselves for another adventure. Just after proclaiming that their adventure "could be the most important moment of [their] adventuring lives!", Scrooge opens the door and finds Della trying to introduce herself.

Shocked by seeing his niece after believing her dead for 10 years, Scrooge soon forgets everything about their planned adventure and joyfully hugs Della, who reveals everything that happened to her in the moon, including her new leg prostheses. Della soon enters the mansion to see Huey, Dewey, and Louie, who are unsure of her identity, while Webby realizes that is their mom. Scrooge formally introduces the kids to her mom, who is shocked by the triplets' names (as she wanted to name them Jet, Turbo, and Rebel, respectively). While Dewey hugs Della and Huey asks her how she survived in the moon, Louie is initially unconvinced that Della is really there and assumes that she was an impostor, before realizing Della is really his mom, all while an emotionally touched Webby watches tearfully.

Upon eating in the dinner room Earth food for the first time in ten years, Della is soon informed of Duckworth 's passing and return as a ghost and that Mrs. Beakley (who is also surprised and happy to see her for 10 years) is now the housekeeper. Huey, Dewey, and Louie soon began asking some questions to Della about herself and Scrooge, while Webby introduces herself, before Scrooge orders the boys to leave her alone to rest. However, Della refuses to rest and instead plans to make-up for the time she was on the moon, while Webby tells her the her brother, Donald , is in a relaxing vacation, unaware that he's on Della's spaceship, the Spear of Selene. Regretting having stolen the Spear, Della tries to spend time with her children, first by trying to make-up for all the lost holidays by making three cakes about them, which soon fails when Dewey eats her "Firework Cake", causing Dewey to vomit and have a stomach ache. Della then terrifies her children by telling them a story about when she defeated the Gilded Man , El Dorado's guardian who went into a blood full rampage and who shall kill its defeater's family as revenge should it be reactivated.

The next day, Della tries to teach the child to surf the stairs with a shield, only for Huey to end up almost getting inured. While Beakley cleans up their mess, Della goes to her brother's boat, proudly watching photos of him raising her children, and soon discovers that she was replaced as Scrooge's pilot with Launchpad McQuack . Enraged, Della goes to talk with Scrooge, only to overhear her family and Beakley discussing her abilities as a mother, with Scrooge claiming is not yet a mom, as she has just arrived. Della is misunderstanding their words. After Scrooge tells them that she is not yet a mother. Depressed and discouraged, Della goes to the garage, where she angrily kicks the Gilded Man (which was put in the garage after Della defeated it), reactivating it, just as Scrooge arrives.

Della and Scrooge try to fight the robot, however, they are soon overpowered by the Gilded Man, forcing them to hide. Della orders Scrooge to bring the boys so she could prove them that she is a good mom by saving them. Scrooge then explains what he really said about her, before the two escape to the yard. Upon hearing their fight, the children, Webby, and Beakley go outside to investigate, and discover that the Gilded Man was re-activated. As they fight, Scrooge and Webby are caught and nearly killed by the Gilded Man, but Dewey then uses the horn Della used to wake them up, with the sound temporarily damaging the robot. The kids then stick together three horns with Donald's tape and throw them to Della, who throws them inside the robot and (having tried to enter inside it before) steps on them, with the sound damaging and destroying the Gilded Man. The destroyed robot almost falls on Louie, but Della escapes and saves him. Emotional that his mother sacrifices herself to save his life from being killed and crushed to death, grateful Louie hugs Della, with Huey and Dewey later hugging her too. Della then promises to her kids that, while she does not know how to be a mom, she still will try to be the best one she can be, a promise that her kids accept. Huey, Dewey and Louie then hug their mom. Della then asks what to do, with the kids quickly proposing their ideas.

Meanwhile, Donald crashes on the Moon, where after using the Oxy-Chew left in the rocket to keep himself from suffocating, he is taken prisoner by the Moonlanders' forces.

  • Tony Anselmo as Donald Duck
  • Lance Reddick as General Lunaris
  • April Winchell as Zenith
  • Rob Paulsen as Gibbous
  • David Kaye as Duckworth
  • Sam Riegel as Gilded Man
  • This episode continues where " The Golden Spear! " left off.
  • The Sword in the Stone from the 1963 animated film of the same name makes a cameo.
  • Donald likely changed their names because they invoked memories of their dangerous adventuring days.
  • In the Dutch dub of DuckTales , Launchpad is already called Turbo. Therefore, Della's original names were changed to "Joost", "Loekie", and "Victor". These were the Belgium names of Huey, Dewey, and Louie in Mickey's Magazine .
  • Apparently legally changing one's name isn't something that exists in this world; given Della and Dewey's horrified reactions to Donald changing his name. Though Dewey likely doesn't know, or Della was to upset to realize this is an option if her sons want to change their names.
  • Sam Riegel , who serves as the series' dialogue director, also voiced the Gilded Man in the episode.
  • Mrs. Beakley didn't became Scrooge's housekeeper until after Della's disappearance.
  • It is implied that he was hired as Della's replacement.
  • Duckworth was alive by the time Della disappeared.
  • The scene in which the kids ask Della about her is similar to when they ask Scrooge about him when they first met.
  • Della having difficulty remembering the boys' actual names, her presence having a difficult impact on the rest of the family where she misinterprets information from the family's secret meeting, is similar to Scrooge's initial difficulty of adjusting to the boys.
  • Della messing in the garage bringing something in a past adventure (before the show began) back to life, with Scrooge yelling, "What in Dismal Downs is going on in here?!" and the disaster being resolved when the family works together and become what they were meant to be, just like they did when dealing with Peghook, Pixiu, and Manny the Headless Man-Horse .
  • The Deus Excalibur from the first episode is mentioned by Della when she tries searching for something to defeat the reactivated Gilded Man with.
  • When Scrooge and Della reunite, he calls her a rocketeer, a possible reference to the Walt Disney Pictures film, The Rocketeer .
  • The sun emblem that Scrooge and Della take cover resembles the sun emblems from the 1987 pilot The Treasure of the Golden Suns .
  • The candles on Dewey's cake change colors from white to blue in the last shot. Also, the inside of the cake changes from brown to white when Dewey starts eating it.
  • The anchor symbol on Huey's cake changes positions between shots. Also, the pirate patch appears on the back of the cake instead in the final shot before Della removes the tray.
  • When Scrooge asks Della: "What idiot said you weren't a good mom?", Della replies: "You, like 5 minutes ago." while showing only her four fingers instead.
  • Along with that, when Della rushes to save Louie from certain death, her hair quickly turns brown momentarily, matching her jacket's color, at one instance.
  • When running away from the pursuing Gilded Man, unlike Dewey, Huey and Louie each carry a horn with their left hands, but when they separate, all 3 triplets each carry a horn with their right hands instead.
  • Each triplet separates with a horn in his hand, but when Huey goes to their Uncle Donald's houseboat to get some tape, he doesn't have a horn. Once Huey throws the tape to Louie, he has all 3 horns with him and Dewey doesn't have a horn until Louie throws the taped horns to him, which he passes to their mother to defeat the Gilded Man with noise once and for all.
  • The length of Della's amputated leg varies between shots after saving Louie from getting crushed to death by the falling android.
