Ducktales Season 2 Episode 30 – Timephoon
Over 135 reviews! YES! THANKS GUYS! KEEP THEM COMING! YOU ALL ARE THE BEST!
StaffordFan13:
Dewey wouldn't necessarily be a third wheel. He's just supporting his girlfriend.
I'm just trying to have the males and females be equally good fighters instead of one being completely overshadowed by one another.
what you said about Dewey and Huey is true, but when it comes to adventuring, that's Dewey's agenda. And he usually leads them in that when it approaches them. Huey can help keep everyone safe and encourage his brother never to give up. There's nothing necessarily wrong with switching the name patterns every now and then.
Moonvasion was a little underwhelming because I expected Donald and Della to fight in sync against Lunaris but that epic battle I had in my head never occurred so I'm going to set things right by making things Infinity War and Endgame style...sorta.
Let's just agree to disagree without getting into a heated argument. If there's stuff you criticize, that's fine.
DuckTalesFanzo: Sorry, about that. Can't help but be a little defensive. I prefer not to take the simple route. I want to go with what I feel is the best route and this is it.
Also, you can believe what you want but in my story Donald is the true main character. You don't have to see it that way if you want to. Just making clear.
Guest 1: I know David played as the 10th Doctor in Doctor Who and Ben voiced the new live-action Sonic. Not sure about the others.
Guest 2: Duckworth's role won't change in Glomtales.
Guest 3: Yeah, I've seen it. Hopefully, Donald will interact with Team Magic.
MightyAgamemon: Thanks a lot MightyAngemon! Don't worry, Donald with or without muscles is vastly stronger than Della or Webby.
Before we go to Glomtales I figured I'd give this one shot of Timephoon. There was not much to change except some things near the end. It was hard to do for emotional reasons but I must establish my Della and Louie episodes by doing this.
In his lack of effort to make his Louie Incorporated business a success Louie had stolen Gyro's bath Timetub to steal treasure from the past from the exact moment before they were lost, avoiding booby traps and effort in the process. But what he didn't realize was that every time he used Timetub the afterblast brought something from the past to present, like for a example a very advanced Cave Duck called Bubba, thus making the time stream unstable and creating a massive Timephoon above the manor that threatens to destroy the future of Clan McDuck. Not only does it zap things from the past to the present but it's also zapping members of the family to the past. Beakely has already been zapped to time where Donald, Della and Scrooge fought Captain Peghook and now Gyro has been blast off to who-knows-when.
And now multiple thugs from history, consisting of ninjas, pirates, cowboys, cowgirls, circuit performers and a Triceratops are in the manor tearing everything apart while Louie and Launchpad are attempting to send every stolen treasure back but that's really only making things worse. Because of Louie it's a free for all in manor and Scrooge, Dewey, Huey and Webby has to fight off the invaders.
Della could only be horrified at what's happening, blaming herself for not taking Beakely's strict advice about parenting and time travel seriously. But what she's about to find out is gonna really set her off and change things between her and Louie forever.
Louie is in the triplet's room with Launchpad returning every lost treasure he's stolen before anyone can find out he's responsible for all this.
Louie: The Jewel Bell goes back to the Penny Farming Society in the 1920's!
Launchpad activates the machine, they teleport, returns the jewel and get back for Louie to grab another treasure.
Louie: Gold Rail Old Spike to the…1880's.
Process repeats and Louie grabs a ruby but is struggling to remember.
Louie: Wait, does this go to Queen Elizabeak or those Shinobi Warriors! GAH! I can't keep it all straight!
Launchpad: I got to thinking that time isn't a straight line at all, perhaps it's like a propeller, always in motion, and it's blades in all places of-
Louie: LAUNCHPAD! WE DON'T HAVE TIME!
Louie activates the tub and they're teleported. Seconds after that Della opens the door to check on her youngest son.
Della: Louie, are you okay!?
Busted. Della gasps when the Timetub appears with Louie and Launchpad in it. Launchpad gives a casual wave while Louie's eyes are widened to see the one person he didn't want to find out about his scheme.
Louie: Mom, I can explain.
Della face contorts with a combination of anger and shock as the reality of it all kicks in. One of her own sons was responsible for causing this Timephoon. Della becomes insanely furious.
Della: LOUIE!
Louie cringes to see he's been busted and to hear the enraged tone in his mother's voice. The naive and cheerful tone had been replaced with that of rage. She stomps over to her youngest son and he reels back in fear at fury in her eyes.
Della: WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS!?
Louie: I-I-I-I-!
Della: IT WAS YOU WASN'T IT!? YOU WERE THE ONE WHO SNUCK INTO THE LAB AND STOLE THE TIMETUB!
Louie: Well…uh…
Della: ANSWER MEEEEE!
Louie yelps from the loudness of her voice and turns to see Launchpad hiding behind Dewey's "Dewey Dew-night" stand. The look in his mother's face was enough to make him crack in panic.
Louie: Yes, it's true! It was me! I stole the Timetub! I used it to go back in time and steal lost treasures from the past for my business!
Della feels like she's been punched in the gut, stepping back and covering her face as though she's going to cry after hearing the truth and the selfish reason behind Louie's actions.
Della: Ohmygosh…I can't believe this…how could you do this…?
Louie: I'm sorry, Mom! I never meant to do this! But it should be okay now, I've put all the treasure back, it's no big deal!
Those two words made Della remove her hands and reveal her angry and twitching face becoming as boiling red as her brother's as Beakely's words from earlier sets in. Louie gulps, knowing what this means. Della releases the loudest shout of anger she could possibly give off. Louie and Launchpad are in fear, especially Louie.
Louie: Oh man…I'm so busted…
It's free-for-all in the foyer and everyone can hear Della's scream of anger, causing Scrooge, Huey, Dewey and Webby to deadpan.
Scrooge, Dewey, Huey & Webby: It's Louie.
Scrooge: Well, mystery solved.
Huey: Louie stole the time tub. He dodges the punch of a cowgirl and lands a blow in the face.
Dewey: Why am I not surprised this is all Louie's fault. He punches a pirate without even looking.
Webby: It's always him…well…mostly… She back kicks a cowgirl without looking.
Scrooge is in front of the stairs assessing the situation. A pirate attacks with his sword but Scrooge blocks it with his cane before delivering a kick in the stomach. A unicycle performer circles around him but Scrooge smacks the wheel, knocking him off. A female pirate attacks from behind but Webby arrives to block with her Persian Blade, pushing back, grinding her blade and protecting Scrooge with all her strength. Scrooge and Webby smile to each other before glaring back at the pirate. She swings her blade, parrying both their sword/cane strikes.
Dewey has one Laser Sabre summoned to parry the sword strike of the same Ninja Della and Beakely got rid of. They lock blades and Dewey pushes back before kicking him away. A pirate tries to grab him but he rolls under his arm to grab a hot dog on the floor and toss it in his face hard enough to make him fall back. A cowgirl attempts to ensnare Dewey in a lasso but he cuts the rope in half before, headbutting the woman and get her zapped by the afterblast lightning.
Dewey and Webby are standing together with Scrooge holding both their swords with two hands and fire in their eyes.
Scrooge: We cannae let anyone else get blasted with lightning or we won't know where they've gone!
Dewey: Dewey turns with a sly smile. It's actually when they've gone.
Scrooge and Webby groan at Dewey for that annoying phrase which he responds to with a finger snap and finger gun, only to be disturbed by an obese pirate.
Huey is backing away from the Triceratops, gesturing it to calm down.
Huey: You don't wanna hurt people. We can be friends. I'll call you…Tootsie.
Tootsie releases a roar, proceed to stomp Huey just as Bubba double kicks a pirate in the face. He notices his red friend screaming in fear. He spots a club from Scrooge's cane sack and takes it out. With a stylish spin he charges, rides on a skateboard before swinging up its horn.
Bubba: BUBBA-CLUBBA!
He smashes the club in Tootsie's head and now Huey is watching the cave duck ride the Triceratops like a maniac.
Huey: Technically you shouldn't have discovered clubs until- what am I complaining about!? THIS IS AWESOME! He gets out his JWG and jots down notes in excitement as Bubba rodeos the Triceratops. GO YOU FREAK OF HISTORY! GO!
An angry Della and Launchpad are carrying the Timetub down the upper stairs with Louie in it.
Louie: You're overreacting! I put everything back! It's no big deal!
When they arrive in front of the broken window Louie sees the huge deal he has just created inside the manor, making Della more furious than ever.
Della: THIS IS A HUGE DEAL! Beakely's lost to time! And if I'd listened to her about this and put my foot down earlier, none of this would've happened!
Launchpad: Listen Ms D, I can explain! You see, time is… He can't find the right words anymore. No, lost it. Suddenly an afterblast lightning roars down to Launchpad and zaps him. EVERYTHING WE DO HAS ALREADY HAPPENED!
He disappears and the Timetub drops down the stairs, causing Della to trip over and Louie hits his face. Bubba jumps down from Tootsie and Dewey and Webby stand back to back holding their weapons.
Bubba: Bubba-Tubba!
Scrooge has finished tying up a cowboy.
Scrooge: Time to send those unwanted house guests-
He gets zapped and screams as he disappears much to everyone's horror.
Dewey & Webby: UNCLE SCROOGE!
Della lifts the Timetub back in place. Dewey, Webby, Huey and Bubba gather around it and are ready to defend themselves from the approaching enemies as Louie fiddles with multiple controls to fix everything.
Louie: It's okay! I know how to fix this!
Webby: How are we gonna get all these anomalies into that tiny tub!
Louie: One of several things I'll know! Any second now!
A muscular circuit performer approaches but Bubba bounces off the tub to smack his knee and then his head.
Huey: Yes!
Huey gets zapped, followed up by Dewey and Webby much to Louie and Della's horror, with the latter close to tears and failing to hug her middle son and daughter-figure on time.
Della: KIDS! NO! She turns to Louie desperately. LOUIE! HURRY!
Louie could only watch in horror and trauma as Della screams after getting zapped.
Louie: MOM! He adjusts some switches. I hope this works!?
Louie climbs up, grabbing the shower device, aiming at the anomalies and turning on the switch. A blue blast of light sends the circus performer back and soon everyone is disappears, even Benjamin Franklin who walks in. Bubba gives Louie the thumbs up before being sent back to his time period.
Now the entire room is empty, devoid of the anomalies but no member of the family has been brought back.
Louie: Mom? Dewey? Huey? Webby? Uncle Scrooge? Ms B? Launchpad?
Louie is all alone as he is forced to stare at the consequences of his actions and selfish intentions. Tears well up in his eyes as the reality of his actions kicks into his mind.
Louie: WHAT HAVE I DONE!? He cries loudly. I WANT ANOTHER CHANCE! I HAVEN'T LEARNED ANYTHING! I LOST MY ENTIRE FAMILY! He tearfully and angrily glares at the clocks before giving them a hard kick. I DON'T WANT THIS FOUL TIMETUB OR THOSE STUPID TREASURES! I WANT MY FAMILY BACK! (1)
He lets out a loud cry and tears of agony as he faceplants against the tub, banging the edges. Then in an instant a bolt of lightning brings Launchpad behind the tub wearing an apocalyptic version of his pilot outfit. Scrooge and Beakely emerge, the former wearing an Arabian outfit and the latter wearing pirate clothing. Louie gasps in shock.
Louie: You're back!?
Huey re-emerges with a cowboy outfit, Dewey and Webby dressed as hippies and Della wearing a full suite of feminine knight armour, her helmet hiding the sadness for what she's about to do. Louie is overjoyed and jumps down to help up his brothers.
Louie: YOU'RE BACK! I AM SO, SO, SORRY!
Everyone gathers around Louie and Beakely and Scrooge are clearly miffed with his selfish actions.
Beakely: This'll be good.
Louie clearly looks ashamed and guilty and apologises just as Gyro drops down the tub wearing an oldern medieval formal party outfit.
Louie: I thought I had a foolproof get-rich-quick plan but it turns out…I was the fool. Can you guys ever forgive me?
Seeing how this isn't the first time Louie has done something like this everyone who knows him so well, including the eldest are quick to forgive.
Beakely: Oh, okay.
Webby: Oh, you know we can. We always do.
Dewey: You know it's fine, classic Louie.
Launchpad: Yeah, of course.
Huey: Yeah, yeah of course, bring it in.
Scrooge: Eh, I'm sure you've learned…something.
Everyone (except Gyro) gathers to share a group family hug with Louie, officially forgiving him and Louie is relieved. Unfortunately…the whole family doesn't forgive Louie. One person doesn't display that mercy due not knowing what Louie is truly like.
Della: No.
Everyone separates and turns to see Della take off her helmet, revealing a stern, disappointed and angry look aimed at Louie as Della walks up to stand opposite of him, unwilling to forgive him.
Della: Not this time.
Louie: What? Louie is hurt and stunned. But I really am sorry, we hugged and everything.
Della: I watched your brothers blink out of existence because you wanted a shortcut to riches!
Louie: I said I was sorry!
Della: You took off in the contraption without thinking of the consequences or the people you would hurt!
Louie hurt and outraged with his mother's unwillingness to forgive him despite his sincere apology and her hypocrisy considering he did a similar action years ago that broke the entire family. He angrily stuffs his hands in his pockets.
Louie: I wonder who I got that from.
This one sentence causes everyone to gasp in shock and horror. Della feels her heart shatter and turns her head upset because she knows Louie is referring to when she took the Spear of Selene and blamed her brother for what happened to their parents. What really hurt was that this reference came from her one of her sons whom she worked hard to come back home for. Her face contorts with anger and disappointment she believes Louie is and Beakely is about to let him have it.
Launchpad: Ooooh!
Beakely: See here young man-!
Della strictly holds up a hand, calling Beakely off, preparing to do what she feels must be done.
Della: Your little scheme to bypass the present almost cost us our future! This all stops now! You are GROUNDED! This word coming from his mother horrified Louie. No schemes! No treasures! And Louie Incorporated is done! Understand!?
Louie reels back, completely hurt that his mother is punishing him shortly after coming back without even having spent time with him, knowing the kind of person he is and taking away his dream. He proceeds to apologise and beg for a chance of redemption.
Louie: Look, let me clean up, okay! Uncle Scrooge! Mrs B, come on!
Scrooge and Beakely looks away in sadness, feeling that Louie needs this in order to learn.
Louie: Dewey, Huey, Webby! Say something! She can't do this to me!
The kids all look down in sadness, not knowing what to do. Della points upstairs without giving him a chance.
Della: To…your…ROOM!
Louie: Louie's on the verge of tears. Mom, I'm sorry! I really am! I never meant for this to happen! Please, give me a chance!
Della: No! No chances! TO YOUR ROOM, NOW!
Louie: BUT MOM! I-!
In an act of anger, irritation, cruelty, horrible and ruthless parenting and lack of thinking Della outright slaps Louie in his face as hard she could, causing Dewey, Scrooge and the rest to gasp in utter shock and horror as Louie falls on his back.
A horrified Gyro awkwardly hides in the Timetub.
Della gasps in horror and self-disgust realizing what she's just done to her own son. Louie gets up in pain, turns back to look at his Mom, rubbing the side of his face which is red. Della can see the tears welling up in his eyes and his beak trembling. She is close to crying too but it wasn't enough to sway her and she resumes her angered look, pointing back up.
Della: Go to your room…now Louie…
Louie: Bu-
Della: She shouts at the top of her lungs. I SAID GO! I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN FOR THE REST OF THE NIGHT!
Silence. That's all there was. The heartbroken Louie shoves his hands in his pockets, while aiming a hateful glare at his cruel mother before gruffly taking his leave and kicking the Timetub.
Louie: Stupid perfect scheme!
Louie physically and emotionally hurt walks up the stairs to his room. Della gives off a sound of discomfort and self-disgust before dropping to her knees, heartbroken over what she just did.
Della: That was hard…
Beakely: Beakely places comforting hands on her shoulders. Well…it always is. But…a little tough love now will make them better people later.
Della: You think?
Beakely: Beakely gives a soft smile. It just worked on you, didn't it?
Della smiles back, feeling better about herself (very shameful). She's helped up.
Beakely: I'm not cleaning any of this up.
Della: That is fair.
The both of them walk away and Dewey walks up to Launchpad who's eyes are haunted.
Dewey: Launchpad, you okay?
Launchpad: I've been to the future…I've seen how the world ends… He resumes his cheerful look before leaving and giving a casual wave. It was neat, see you there soon!
Dewey and Huey look up the stairs, worried for their youngest brother. Webby places a comforting hand on her boyfriends shoulder as they all look down in sadness. Louie has been forced to see the reality of the deadly trouble his schemes can sometimes bring, his own mother has yelled at him in front of the entire family, grounded him, slapped him, took away his dream business and is refusing to forgive him. And those moments alone were most horrifying moments of his life and now it's happening again. The three of them feel sorry for Louie, believing he shouldn't have to go through this, especially since Della doesn't even know him. They want to speak out against her but they are afraid of getting on her badside.
