Alan Young: Scrooge McDuck

Quotes 

• Duckworth : Oh. My apologies, sir. But I wouldn't go near the limo if you paid me.

  Scrooge McDuck : I *do* pay ya.

  Duckworth : [muttering]  Oh, is that what you call it?

  [clears his throat] 

  Duckworth : Tell you what, sir - I'll pay *you* a month's salary to drive yourself.

  Scrooge McDuck : A month's salary?

  Duckworth : Yes, sir.

  Scrooge McDuck : Yours or mine?

  Duckworth : Mine, sir.

  Scrooge McDuck : Keep it.

  [shuts him in again] 

• Huey Duck : [the fear-cloud takes on the form of a threatening creature]  We're gonna grow up to be some kind o'troubled teenagers, Uncle Scrooge.

  Scrooge McDuck : I won't let that happen.

• Scrooge McDuck : And as for you, ya nasty little kiltnappers - my boys *love* me, so *you're* not my boys.

• Magica De Spell : My - my magic spells! They are turning against *me*! *My* worst fear is coming true...!

  [flees pursued by the fear-cloud which keeps zapping her with lightning causing her to yell] 

  Scrooge McDuck : You deserved to get it in the end, ya old fuddy=duddy!

  [laughs] 

• [last lines] 

  Louie Duck : We won!

  Scrooge McDuck : Aye, lads. And from now on we'll always face our fears, no matter how scary they are.

  Louie Duck : I was afraid you'd say that!... Only kiddin', Uncle Scrooge!

  [laughs as he lifts him onto his shoulder] 

  Louie Duck : Only kiddin'!

• Scrooge McDuck : I don't owe you money, do I?

  Louie Duck : Of course not.

  Scrooge McDuck : Wha - what happened to those bill collectors?

  Huey Duck : What bill collectors?

  Scrooge McDuck : Boys, something strange *is* going on here.

• Scrooge McDuck : Why're you standing in the closet?

  Duckworth : [clears his throat; whispers]  Because there's no limo-monster in here, sir.

  Scrooge McDuck : [walking off after shutting him in again]  Well, I guess he's got a point.

  [does a double-take] 

• Doofus Drake : I was afraid you were a big banana!

  Huey Duck : Or Commander Gander, terror of the universe!

  Duckworth : [sticks his head out of the closet]  Or the limo-monster.

  Scrooge McDuck : [examining himself]  Not last time I checked... Nope. I'm just a plain old filthy-rich duck who wants to know... WHAT'S GOIN' ON AROUND HERE?

• Scrooge McDuck : The mind can play funny tricks on ya... Especially a mind like yours.

• Scrooge McDuck : You're welcome to eat anything in the kitchen that doesn't eat you first.

  [laughs] 

• Scrooge McDuck : Come out, ya blasted bill-collectors! Nothing scares Scrooge McDuck!

  [an alarm goes off; he screams] 

• Huey Duck : That raincloud. It's following us.

  Scrooge McDuck : Stranger things have happened. Most of them earlier today.

• Scrooge McDuck : You'll never take my boys away from me! Never! *Never*! NEVER!

• Scrooge McDuck : Don't worry, boys. I'll never let those bill-collectors collect *you*.

• Scrooge McDuck : I'm sorry I didna believe you about Commander Gander. Or the big banana.

  Duckworth : [sticks his head out of the closet]  What about the limo-monster, sir?

  Scrooge McDuck : Don't push it, Duckworth.

  Duckworth : Very good, sir.

  [shuts himself in again] 

• Scrooge McDuck : [only able to see him writhing on the floor while he imagines he's struggling to get free]  What are you doing?

  Doofus Drake : Bully Beagle - is making a fool of me.

  Scrooge McDuck : And doing a good job of it too.

  [helps him up then drags him down the hall] 

  Doofus Drake : Oh, I hate it when he picks on me!

  Scrooge McDuck : So do I.

• Scrooge McDuck : We - We - We-We canna go on this way.

  Doofus Drake : Yeah! We've gotta have somethin' to eat!

• Dewey Duck : It's almost as if someone knows what our worst fears are, and is usin' 'em against us.

  Huey Duck : But - who would know that much about us?

  Dewey Duck , Huey Duck , Louie Duck : [a noise like the door banging open makes them turn to it]  Uncle Scrooge!

  Scrooge McDuck : Figured it out, did ya? Well, *my* worst fears came true when I got you three little television-leaver-oners. I never wanted you here. But that no-good Donald dumped ya on me.

  [tosses the photo of him across the room; the nephews gasp and stare] 

  Scrooge McDuck : I've been doing all this, to scare you out of my life!

  Louie Duck : B-But how could you *do* all those things?

  Scrooge McDuck : I'm rich. I can do *anything*! And I'll be even richer when you're *out* of here!

  Louie Duck : Uncle Scrooge!

  Dewey Duck : Uncle...

  Scrooge McDuck : [talking over him then Louie]  Don't call me that! I don't want to be your uncle anymore!

• Scrooge McDuck : [on the phone with a doubting weather service rep]  I am *not* all washed up! There's a storm-cloud raining on my house right this minute!

• Scrooge McDuck : Ahh, I knew it. I *knew* it. I was never cut out to raise three boys. I've failed.

  [covers his face and sobs] 

  Huey Duck , Dewey Duck , Louie Duck : [come out shouldering sacks on poles]  Uncle Scrooge?

  Scrooge McDuck : Lads?

  Louie Duck : We're leavin, Uncle Scrooge. Jus tlike you wanted.

  Scrooge McDuck : Leavin'?

  Huey Duck : Yeah. You still wanna get rid of us, don't'cha?

  Scrooge McDuck : Get rid of ya? Why, of *course* not. You're the apples o'my eye. I - I-I thought you wanted to get rid of *me*. You said I was an old fuddy-duddy...

  [looks away] 

  Dewey Duck : We'd *never* say that, Uncle Scrooge.

  [they run to each other and hug] 

  Scrooge McDuck : Why - Why, of *course* you wouldn't.

• Scrooge McDuck : We've been running from our fears long enough, lads. It's time to face them.

  [swallows] 

  Huey Duck , Dewey Duck , Louie Duck : [flee to his back]  We're behind ya, Uncle Scrooge.

  Huey Duck : [peering around his shoulder]  *Way* behind.
