I've done nothing, 22. Nothing!

You were trying to blow up Mount Neverrest.

That's ridiculous.

I was trying to carve my face into Mount Neverrest.

It would've been an improvement.

[laughs]

So, uh, sir, as you can see,

our unpredictableSHUSH escapades

are costing us millions.

A chaotic event occurs,we respond with even more chaos.

So rather than wait

for another villain to threaten the world,

why don't we take over the world.

Wait a second.

You're saying we gonna go bad,

like those terrible villains?

Of course not, sir.

We simply defeat all who oppose us,

reign in any unpredictable factors,

and efficiently run the world

from the shadows with an iron fist, yes?

[laughs]

Right.

Request denied.

Bradford my boy, I gave you this job over here

as a favor to your granny-mama,

but you have got to get this kooky bad-guy stuff

out of your crazy little head there.

It's not bad-guy stuff,you shortsighted buffoon, it's--

All right.

SHUSH is a world-saving organization,

not a world-stealing one.

[laughing]

Besides, what does a sharp pencil accountant

know about world domination anyways?

Not enough...

-on my own. -[elevator dings]

We simply run the world from the shadows with an iron fist.

And you call this...?

OWL. "The Organization for World Larceny."

We'll steal the world out from under SHUSH,

take control, and make a tidy profit.

I don't know.

Sounds a little bleh.

Oh, what if we add an F?

"The Fiendish Organization for World Larceny."

For some super-villainous sizzle.

This is not outlandish super-villainy.

This is order. Control.

With your world-conquering gusto

focused by my top-secret strategic planning,

the sky's the limit, and--

Fine, I'll add the "F."

This is the beginning of a beautiful fiend-ship.

[chuckles]

[lock clicks]

Go now. I'll contact you.

I expect that report on my desk by day's end.

Time is money,and I have not enough of either.

Duckworth, my rundown.

You have your daily swim and money count,

then a brief trip to mystical Trallala

to visit their bottle cap plants.

After that, a meet and greetwith the Vampire Dignitaries,

and a routine security check on Falcon Island.

Hm, light schedule today.

Oh, and your sister Hortense,stopped by and, uh,

left you something.

Ugh, did I forget my birthday again?

What is it? Another itchy sweater?

A scented candle?

[elevator dings]

A massive inconvenience?

Is this deadly? How about this?

[grunts] Oh, no.

That's just easily broken.

Oh, boy. Jackpot.

Wait, it's just an old dime.

Oh, new pick.

I am a multi-billionaire businessman, not a babysitter.

I do not have time for this.

Same old grouchy uncle.

Today's going to be a total bummer.

No way.

Uncle Scrooge toppled the Colossus of the Nile.

He discovered the Treasure of the Ten Avatars.

So what crazy fun adventure do we have on deck for today?

I do not adventure.

I'm looking at a big room of gold that says different.

My expeditions were grueling,treacherous,

and only served to build my company and my fortune.

Nothing fun about them.

These, days I've left all that behind

to focus on a new kind of conquest.

Corporate conquest.

Just stay out of the way and don't touch anything.

[beeping]

To be fair, I touched this before you got here.

I have to attend to this.

Hello, Director 22.

We located Captain Yellow Beak's ship.

You know what this means.

The Papyrus of Binding.

One of the most powerful artifacts known to man.

We finally have a credible lead to its whereabouts.

Our satellites spotted the ship near a phantom island

in the Bermuda Trapezoid.

Yellow Beak? Bermuda Trapezoid?

Phantom Island?

All great band names.

[grunts]

Forget your band. This is an adventure.

Imagine actually having something to sing about.

Life experience.

That's the soulof an artist.

22, I'm occupied.

And you have plenty of other agents.

None I trust as much as you. We've got a mole.

FOWL has somehow gained SHUSH intel.

Scrooge, this could be our chance to find the papyrus,

uncover the mole, and shut FOWL down for good.

We'll do it!

[sighs]

Duckworth, revise the schedule.

I'm going on a business trip.

Solo.

[sighs]

We know you don'twant family,

but how about a pair of young sidekicks

for this treacherous journey?

I hate those more.

Unpaid interns?

I work alone.

How about some heavies?

You might need the muscleto back you up.

I'm sure Duckworth could useplenty of help around the house.

Happy to put the little ones to work.

Especially since you'llbe paying me overtime.

Overtime?

What, am I made of money?

[loud thump]

♪ Money hands and money feet

♪ Made of money My rich uncle Scrooge ♪

Still please take us.

Very well.

Seeing as how I don't seem to have a say in the matter.

-You don't. -You don't.

Just leave the guitar.

-You can't mute me, old man. -[strumming]

Ever play "OutRunner II, Flight Simulator"?

I'm an ace pilot at it.

So, you know, let me know if youneed me to take the joystick.

Donna. Dello. Come on, now. Let's not drag our spats.

Am I Dello or Donna?

Who cares? To adventure!

Not an adventure.

To business trip!

The intrepid explorers begin their epic voyage.

What lies ahead is a mystery.

A mystery as mysterious as the--

Hey, what is the thing we're getting, exactly?

The Papyrus of Binding.

A mystical artifact.

When you write on the papyrus, anything you ask it for

will become a reality.

-Anything? -Anything.

So you better be specific.

Crafted by mystics in Ancient Egypt

as a gift to the pharaohs,

the papyrus proved too powerful.

Wars were fought to claim it over the centuries.

It was last seen when the notorious pirate,

Captain Yellow Beak,

stole the papyrus from the Spanish Armada.

Soon after, Yellow Beak and his ship vanished

in the Bermuda Trapezoid, never to be heard from again.

[cell phone rings]

[Beakley, over phone] Eyes front, McDuck.

Black Heron was sighted at your point of departure,

along with another conspirator.

Oh, 22, come on, you're always on edge.

I'm not worried about a thing.

[Heron] You should be.

Black Heron!

Wait, you're doing this now?

Enjoy your trip.

It will be your last.

Hold on, where're you going?

-[cackles] -Aah!

Man, this is already the best.

Kids, take the yoke.

No problem.

Nothing can stop Della Duck.

Except the ground!

Altimeter? Air speed. I don't know.

Just try anything!

So...this?

[all scream]

[laughs]

Look at me, I'm a pilot!

We need to land. But where?

How about that island?

The Phantom Island.Take us there.

Oh, what a rush. We got them.

[whimpers]

[groans]

That was terrible.

That was classic.

Why did we reveal ourselves?

We could have landed the plane safely, then captured them. I--

Embrace your wild side,Bradford.

We're super-villains.

No, we are not.

Your showboating is going to cost us the papyrus.

Please, there is no way Scrooge and his brats

are going survive the...

[Della & Donald] We're alive! Yay!

Ugh, let's move.

Ha! We're alive!

Nice work, lass. That was incredible.

Incredibly dangerous. No time to waste.

FOWL is still out there seeking the papyrus.

[grunts]

Hmm. No sign of Yellow Beak's ship on the beach.

Curious. Let's move.

[beeping]

Where is this pirate ship, anyway?

Could you keep it down, laddie?

What? You got a problemwith artistic expression?

No, I've got a problem with giving away our position

to the bad guys.

I've got several meetings planned for this afternoon,

and being dead could throw off my whole day.

Pfft. Figures.

You got to embrace the experience, man.

There's more to lifethan work and money.

Said the future freeloader.

♪ Never gonna smile On an island of green ♪

♪ All he can think of Is his wealth so obscene ♪

Heron, are you certain this trap,

and waiting to watch them fall into this trap,

is at all necessary?

Patience, Bradford.

Patience.

Aw, phooey!

[whimpering]

Whoa!

[screams]

On that peak there.

-A ship. -Ship on a peak?

It must be the papyrus's doing.

You found it, lad. Yellow Beak's lost ship.

[grunts]

[screams]

And now, we let them lead the way.

And when they find the artifact,

we swoop in and take it for ourselves.

That's...actuallyquite brilliant.

And then we use the papyrus against them.

Delicious villainous irony.

Wait, no. We are not using the papyrus.

It is chaos magnified.

Well, then what's the point?

Why can't I ask the papyrus for ultimate power?

Because then we get blasted bya trillion volts of electricity.

What about unimaginable wealth?

Then we're crushed undermountains of invisible treasure.

The papyrus is literally dangerously literal.

A slightly misworded command could end us both.

And well worth the risk.

This is what world domination is all about.

Embrace your inner-villain.

For the last time, I'm an undercover counteragent,

not a vill-- Aah!

[chuckles]

Forgot I set that one.

[Scrooge] And so the valley begin to implode,

burying with it the ancient temple,

the Treasure of the Golden Suns,lost forever.

I escaped to the Wakka River.

And that dastardly El Capitan was left

to dig in the dirt, all alone.

-Whoa! -Whoa!

In the end, the trip was all for naught.

No gold, no treasure, didn't even get a souvenir out of it.

Not worth the effort.

But what an adventure.

Some journeys are worth more than treasure, man.

Sounds like you got a great story out of it.

Duckworth. Yes.

No, keep the meetings. We're about done here.

I'll have SHUSH send an extraction team ASAP.

We're okay?

Oh, my gosh, no magic can kill me.

Oh! This priceless artifact is busted.

They're not my sidekicks, you degenerate egret.

Oh, enough speeches, Bradford.

You want to take over the world so badly,

then be a villain and take it, already!

It's about to get worse.

You've made a powerful enemy today.

Now that we know who you are,

we will tear the world apart to find you.

I'm Scrooge McDuck.

As long as adventure courses through my veins,

no villain can best me.

But I am no villain.

At least I won't be, to you.

"Papyrus, as far as the ducks know,

Bradford Buzzard was never here."

[stammers]

[gasps] The papyrus!

All right, kids, I got the--

Good show, now hand over the papyrus,

or your family joins the restof these tragic scalawags.

Wait, what are you writing?

No writing!

"Papyrus, I ask that you be lost once more,

"until the rightful heir of Scrooge McDuck

can find your final resting place."

If you hurt my niece and nephew,

no one will find the papyrus again.

Oh!

Whoo! Ha-ha!

Wait, Kid Adventurer.

That's a band name! Or is it a solo act?

-[cell phone rings] -[Scrooge] 22.

We didn't exactly get the artifact,

but neither did FOWL. Send the extraction team.

I need to get back to Duckburg for an important meeting.

I need to hand off my day-to-day business duties,

that way I can spend more time adventuring with my heirs.

We'll find that papyrus someday.

Yeah, we will!

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!

I mean, whatever.

[buoy bell clangs]

[door opens]

Mr. McDuck?

Ah, Bradford, was it? Come in.

Former SHUSH. Your résumé is impeccable.

And more importantly,

you came highly recommended by Director 22,

and she doesn't trust anyone.

So, let's get to it.

As you may know, my business can be a tad chaotic.

I have noticed, sir.

And I assure you I willreign in that chaos.

Good. I have plenty of wild enemies.

What I don't have is a levelheaded ally

to take control of McDuck Enterprises.

Someone trustworthy, reliable.

There's something about you.

I remember you.

My Christmas party. Ages ago.

Oh, why we're practically old kin, eh?

Congratulations, Bradford.

You're my new CFO.

Oh, yes.

You're the exact dull, stingy type I need.

Yes, sir.

This looks like the startof a beautiful friendship.
