Plot:
The episode begins in Duckburg snowing and cherry blossom trees are falling. The triplets and Webby are seen playing in the snow, while Della and her husband, who is a pilot, Launchpad Mcquack joins in to play in the snow with them. Donald is happy with his Uncle Scrooge to know that he let his parents stay at the Mcduck manor. Scrooge feels bad leaving his parents behind in a mansion, and he lets them live in the Mcduck manor. Miss Beakley prepares tea for the entire duck family and have a good time.
Ludwig is seen relaxing in the rooftop of Mcduck manor, dangling a diamond charm. He hears footsteps and turns around, only to reveal his nephew, Fethry Duck. He wonders why he's not hanging out with the family, only standing there, dangling a diamond charm. Ludwig told his nephew that he has a crush on someone. Fethry squeals knowing that his uncle has a crush.
Ludwig told his nephew to keep it a secret to prevent Scrooge from hearing. Afterwards, Ludwig revealed his crush to Fethry Duck, saying that Matilda Mcduck is Ludwig's crush. Fethry squealed and screams on his beanie. Matilda heard the conversation and asked them what topic are they talking about. Ludwig's heart beats really fast and blushes really hard to the point his face turned red. His eyes turned into heart shapes and freezes like a statue.
Matilda is confused and he pokes him to see if he's alright. Ludwig flinches and blushes. Fethry was super worried so what he did is tell Matilda that he is just overheating. Matilda looks at his nose, and it bleeds. Fethry worries more and covers his nose with his fingers. Ludwig bleeds from his ears, Fethry covers his ears, Ludwig bleeds from his mouth. Fethry finally let's go of his nostrils and he bleeds like a fountain. Matilda worries if there are conditions that Ludwig is having right now.
Fethry told her that he's going to be okay. Matilda still worries and tells Ludwig that he's going to be okay. Matilda kisses him in the cheek, which cause Ludwig to blush and bleed even more. She smiles and leaves. Fethry looks at his uncle and is shocked to see him bleed like a waterfall. Ludwig's nose bleeds rapidly until he passes out on the floor. Fethry is concerned and he quickly carries him to the hospital.
Outside of Mcduck manor, a demon who brings hate all over Duckburg, plans to ruin Ludwig's life by breaking his heart and make the woman he fell in love, fall for another. The demon reveals itself to be an anti-cupid. A demon that brings hate and sadness all over Duckburg only for his pleasure. He prepares his bow and arrows that has the shape of a broken heart, and laughs evilly.
Dawn. Fethry visits the hospital and breaks open to check on his uncle. Ludwig wakes up and finds his nephew grabbing his neck and shakes him violently. Ludwig slaps him in the face to stop. Fethry was worried that his uncle might die due to the amount of blood he lost. Thankfully, he recovered. Ludwig was so embarrassed and didn't think of him talking to her. Ludwig stands up as he and Fethry leaves the hospital.
He sees Scrooge and Matilda talking to each other. Scrooge has the big brother behavior as he confronts his sister about her talking to Ludwig. Fethry and Ludwig joined Matilda and Scrooge's conversation, as Scrooge scoffs in anger. He tells Ludwig if he hurts her, Scrooge will kill him in his sleep, telling him to sleep with one eye tonight. Matilda tells him to stop, and tells him that she doesn't want to be treated like a baby.
Scrooge, however, being the big brother, he rejected what she said, because Scrooge wanted to be a very responsible big brother after losing his other little sister, Hortense Mcduck.
Scrooge threatens Ludwig to kill him if he hurts her. Ludwig wasn't threatened at all. He approaches Matilda and talks to her to see if she wants to hang out with Fethry if she has time. Scrooge quickly hugged and protected Matilda in front of Ludwig. Ludwig is getting sick and tired of Scrooge protecting her. Matilda pushes her brother away angrily. Matilda agrees to hang out with him and Fethry. Scrooge again threatens him, as Matilda cuts him off. He hangs out with the group to see if Ludwig does anything to Matilda.
They went to Duckburg mall, having fun, as they walk around the mall, walking around, looking at art, and they stop at a burger shack. Ludwig looks sad because of what Scrooge is doing. Fethry asks him if he hates Scrooge so much, which Ludwig says yes.
The gang went to the amusement park as they spend time together as a family. Fethry purchases fluffy giant cotton candies for the family. The family decides to ride on the Ferris wheel, before they could get in, Fethry pats Ludwig's chest by installing a body camera in his chest.
They all got in but they are separated, which gives Ludwig a chance to talk to Scrooge. The ride starts, Fethry and Matilda are having a good time, while Scrooge and Ludwig aren't. However, Ludwig begins to talk things out. What he hates most about Scrooge is being super overprotective towards Matilda, and it makes Matilda very insecure to know that her brother is still protecting her.
Scrooge angrily yelled at Ludwig, claiming that he only wanted to be a very responsible big brother, after losing Donald's mother and Scrooge's sister, Hortense Mcduck. He says that she and her husband, Quackmore Duck, died of old age. Scrooge felt that part of him died after losing her. He only wanted to be a very responsible big brother. He doesn't want Matilda to be next.
The ride finishes as they get off. Scrooge and Ludwig look away in anger. Fethry sees them and hides his tablet away. They all went back home as Fethry pats Ludwig's chest and removes the body camera and hides it away.
At the Mcduck manor, Matilda is seen drinking tea, relaxing, as Fethry enters her room, wanting to show her something in his tablet. Fethry shows Matilda the footage of Ludwig and Scrooge talking. However, in the video, Scrooge says that he doesn't wanna lose Matilda just like what happened to Hortense.
Matilda felt bad, wondering why Scrooge was treating her like a baby. He wants to be a very responsible big brother. Fethry puts his tablet away, as he consoles her. He explains how he captured the footage to her, is installing a body camera in Ludwig's chest. Matilda told Fethry not to delete the footage because it touched her to know that she has a big brother who's always there for her.
Night at the Duckburg park, the Anti-cupid is seen eavesdropping the conversation from Ludwig and Fethry about him winning Matilda. The Anti-Cupid then prepares his bow and arrow, filled with poisonous hate. He targets Ludwig and shoots directly at Ludwig's shoulder. Fethry asked him what's wrong, as he looked around and came across a demon that brings hate. He yelled at the demon as he pulls out his water-blasting gun and shoot him. The water burnt his skin like an acid. Fethry now attacks the Anti-Cupid by shooting it with water. The Anti-Cupid flies away. For Ludwig, he was poisoned by toxic hate.
His eyes turned into broken heart shapes and his love for Matilda faded away. His skin also turned gray. He claims that he now hates her forever and wishes not to see her. Fethry knew that he's just poisoned with toxic hate. The hate will spread his pure heart into pure toxicity and Fethry has 1 hour to find the antidote. He runs away to prevent being attacked by Ludwig's punches.
He hides behind a wall, panting. He goes to a store to buy the most fragrant perfume made in the 1920s, Channel N°5. He then used it for his water gun to save Ludwig and his hate infection. He now has 40 minutes to save Ludwig and defeat the Anti-Cupid once and for all! He now approaches Ludwig and the Anti-Cupid. Fethry told the demon to get off his uncle angrily, as he points the water gun to him and shoots the Anti-Cupid. The perfume burns his entire skin, as he struggles to fly away. Fethry shoots Ludwig with the antidote and he was recovered. Ludwig thanked his nephew, as they both glare at the Anti-Cupid. Ludwig stomps on him as Fethry spills the entire perfume to the Anti-Cupid, as he screams in agony and burns.
Fethry and Ludwig were horrified seeing the Anti-Cupid burn, but they just laugh it out. They looked at the view of Duckburg of how beautiful it is. The snow and cherry blossoms fall at the same time. They are both amazed by it. Ludwig all of a sudden sits down on the floor and mope.
Fethry looks at his uncle and asks him what's wrong. Ludwig saw Matilda talking to another man, thinking that she fell in love with someone.
Ludwig tells that he's too late and didn't had the chance to tell his feelings to her. Fethry consoles him, telling that he'll always be there with him, even if times go wrong, or times are too late. Fethry hugged his uncle, as Ludwig hugs him back. Matilda approaches them. Fethry was surprised to see her that she visited. Ludwig asked her why she was checking on him. Matilda only had talk to a friend, much to Ludwig's dismay. Matilda sees a tear shedding from Ludwig's eyes, and wipes it.
Matilda told him that she was talking to a friend, not dating. Ludwig then smiles. Fethry lends him a hand to stand up and he did. Ludwig and Matilda looked into each other's eyes. His are shocked and confused, hers are calm and happy.
Ludwig is super embarrassed and he couldn't talk. He ran away blushing in embarrassment. Ludwig sits down in the bench of the park balcony.
He looks at the blooming cherry blossoms and the snow falling in the city. He held his Diamond charm and puts it away. Fethry catches up to him, and tells him that he's going to be okay. Ludwig was so embarrassed and said he'll never catch her heart. Fethry turns around, only to see Matilda following them. He is happy to see her and he gives her a chance to talk to Ludwig. Fethry points at his uncle, as Ludwig turns around, sees Matilda, and quickly looks away, blushing again.
Matilda smiles and sits beside him. Ludwig was blushing, and doesn't know what to do. Matilda blushes also, and leans on him and closes her eyes. Ludwig isn't feeling so embarrassed anymore. Fethry also sits beside him looking at the stars. He then looks at his uncle and smiles, saying that he did a great, amazing job.
Ludwig begins confessing to Matilda that he's been in love with her. He told her that she caught his heart and kept it safe. Matilda blushed hard and smiles. She hugged his arm and kisses his cheek. Fethry couldn't help it but squeal in excitement. He pulls out his selfie stick and takes a picture. Ludwig is super thankful to his nephew who helped him win her.
The next day, Summer in Duckburg, the entire Duck family are hanging out in the pool hotel. Scrooge is seen floating in the ocean. Fethry does a cannonball in the pool, splashing the entire duck family. Ludwig and Matilda are now a happy couple. The triplets are seen messing with each other, Webby is seen splashing everyone in the pool.
