No place quite like
the beach, eh, gos?

I'll say. The only place
that hasn't been paved.

Ah, the smell of the sea,

the wind in your hair,

the... whooo-waa-oooh!

The dangerous
half-buried debris.

Whoa! Steel-belted...
Now there's a keeper.

Oooh!

What has happened
to the beach, dad?

There's so much junk,

I can't even find the sand.

Have you ever
seen trash like this?

Not since the last
time I was in your room.

Hey, my room is organized chaos,

but this is serious
environmental pollution.

Gosalyn, I think
you're overreacting.

Who's overreacting?!

This place is disgusting.

It's a blight on the
face of the planet earth!

Now, now, it's
just a little litter.

A little litter?!

And the Grand Canyon
is just a little ditch!

And the north pole
is just a little chilly

and Napoleon was
just a little dictator!

Yes, dear. He was.

And I think you're blowing
this out of proportion.

Well, I'm not gonna lay
around doing nothing.

I'm gonna do something.

That's nice, sweetheart.

Just don't maim anyone.

Gosalyn Mallard, girl of action,

patrols the beach, determined
to catch any polluters

and make them pay.

Litterbug! Three o'clock.

Gosalyn, no!

Code red! Trash
mongers, 300 yards.

Gosalyn!

Now why did you do a
thing like that to me, huh?

Just a little accident.

No hard feelings, huh, pal?

You need to learn some manners.

Now, d.W., if you want
to get buried in the sand,

you really shouldn't
do it head first.

Well, thank you
for the helpful hint.

Now get me out of here!

Sorry, dad, but you can't use
kid gloves on these polluters.

You gotta fight to draw blood.

Yes. But does it
have to be my blood?

There are already very
good laws against pollution.

You don't have to
write any new... oooh!

Ones.

Alright, bub. I
said I was... sorry.

Whoa! Not your typical
crustacean behavior pattern.

What's making those
crabs so crabby?

I don't... ooooh!...Know.

But I'm going to find out.

So you're the sinister
force behind all this.

If you don't call off your th*gs

I'm gonna use you
for a crab casserole.

Ooh! Oooh! Ooh!

Looks like more than the
crabs have an attitude problem.

The odious octopus
is behind it all.

This is a job for...

Darkwing duck!

I am the terror that
flaps in the night.

I am the smoke that
smokes smoked oysters.

All right, you
slithering sea serpent,

stop this rampage immediately!

Or face the wrath
of... darkwing duck!

I hate it when somebody
steps on my lines.

I have you now.

Ah, something's
not quite right here.

Aach-aach-aachoo!

I set my gas g*n for smog.

Next time I get a day off

we're spending it in a library.

[ Shell horn blows ]

Did I really see what
I just saw in the sea?

I believe I'll continue this
investigation back at headquarters.

With my state-of-the-art,
hi-tech, and very pricey

crime-fighting equipment.

I'll solve this
mystery in no time.

I've checked and double
checked every villain on file.

I've scrutinized every
crook who ever stole fish,

ate fish, or just
plain smelled fishy.

And none of them matched
this one's modus operandi.

That's mode of operation
or m.O. As we say in the trade.

No felonious sea slime's
gonna make a fool out of me.

I think this villain's
no villain, dad.

The water got cleaned
up and nobody got hurt.

I supposed that makes
me chopped liver.

You've got to admit

those fish did do some
major janitorial work.

There's ways to keep a beach
clean without destroying property.

I still say they were just
trying to do some good.

Look, I'm the hero around here,

not some sea slug with a horn.

And I'm gonna catch that
miscreant if it's the last thing I do.

How are you gonna find it?

I could check with
the musicians union,

but I'd say we're dealing
with a non-professional here.

So I'll just meet the waterlogged
wretch on it's own turf.

Or, ah, surf.

The famed crime fighter
sets up to confront the villain

in the briny deep.

[ Sawing ]

Ah, d.W., I think we're
gonna need a bigger boat.

Oh-h*! So you're
the one behind it all!

Why do I bother?

Sorry about the hole.

I was trying for a
dramatic entrance.

Just what do you
think you're doing?

That's precisely
what I came to ask you.

It is?

You're the one who gave my
whale a sneezing fit, aren't you?

It was that or get the full
tour of his digestive tract.

That wasn't very nice, you know.

He already has
a sinus condition.

Oh, let me see here.

Ah-ha! Now I know...

My keen crime-fighter's
instincts tell me

you're behind the
aquatic uprising.

Ha ha ha, you're more fun
than a barrel of sea monkeys.

Of course I'm the one.

I just want to
tell you, back off.

Otherwise you're likely
to put me in a bad mood.

And you don't
want to see me mad.

Let's get one thing
straight here...

You don't tell me what to do...

I tell you what to do.

And your little game is over.

You've fallen for my
trap, hook, line, and sinker.

Now you've gone
and spoiled my mood.

Your frame of mind is
of no concern to moi.

I'm taking you in.

[ Blows shell horn ]

Unless, of course, you're busy.

Listen. You stay out of my
way and you won't get hurt,

but if you cross me again,
you're gonna be fish food.

♪♪

She took the bait,

and now it's time
to reel her in.

I'll find that sardine if I have
to search all seven seas.

Honey, you've
got the I.Q. Of kelp.

It's all over now,
chicken of the sea.

The trigger mechanism
must be a little damp.

I guess I'm getting soft,

but I'll give you one
last chance to back off.

Never! Darkwing duck does not know
the meaning of the word surrender.

Illiterate, huh?
That explains a lot.

♪♪

Catchy tune. Are you
available for parties?

It's the end of the
fishing line for you, sister.

The game is up.

Not now, launchpad.
This is my big speech.

I live for moments like these.

It wasn't me, d.W.

Oh, it was just the
giant, deadly octopus.

Oh, no.

Try your gas g*n again, d.W.

It's no good underwater.

But don't worry. We'll
just move on to plan b.

And what's plan b?

Actually, my gas g*n was plan b.

Several of my internal organs

are going to be of very
little use after this case.

Easy, sweetie.

I don't want to do
away with them just yet.

Say, this is some
aquarium you got here.

Yeah. Who was your
decorator, captain Nemo?

Keep moving. This isn't
a sightseeing tour.

Did you have to put
these on so tight?

Maybe I should've put one on
that flapping trap of yours.

Whoa! Yup! Must be hard
finding maid service down here.

What, no television?

She probably doesn't
get cable, anyway.

♪♪

Now see here, you
carp... careful, d.W.

Those things look
like they might be...

Yaaaa-haaa-haaa!

Yep. Electric eels.

At least you could've dusted.

Now that is just
some of the junk

you surface slobs
have dumped down here.

And this is a little bit of
what dropped in this morning.

Those beach attacks
were over littering?

You're not so
stupid for an idiot.

You're mad! You know
that? You're absolutely...

Da-da-da-da-da! Absolutely mad.

I'm not mad.

I'm furious!

If your backyard was used as
the world's biggest garbage dump,

wouldn't you be annoyed?

That's no reason
to take it out on us.

It's not?

This kind of hostility is really
very counter-productive.

I wasn't always this way.

No, sir. Not by a long shot.

I think this where she tells us
what drove her to a life of villainy.

I was the happiest
Halibut you ever met

until... I was right.

I was out for my morning swim,

trying to maintain
my girlish fish figure.

I was happy as a clam.

Not a care in the world.

Then, somebody new showed
up in the neighborhood.

Somebody like nobody
I'd ever seen before.

I was young, fresh
out of school.

I didn't know what
the thing was.

Just figured it was a
new friend to play with.

Then one of those things hit me.

Direct hit and i'm
out for the count.

And before I knew
it, I wasn't what I was,

but what I am.

That's the saddest "why
I began a villain" story

I ever heard.

So now you know why I'm put
out with you surface types.

That's the most ridiculous
thing I've ever heard.

As far as I'm concerned,

you're just another
fish gone bad.

That's not the attitude I
was looking for, buster.

What if we promise to
pick up after ourselves?

It's too late for that, sweetie.

I've got to make sure
what happened to me

doesn't happen to another
fish in this whole sea.

I'm gonna flood your dirty city

until it's part of my world.

Then I'm gonna
clean it up for you.

This is terrible. Think
of the destruction,

the damage, the devastation!

Think of the drop
in property values.

♪♪

The hero momentarily finds
himself at a slight disadvantage.

But, as always, he maintains
his ever-cool demeanor.

I gotta get outta here!

Yaaaa-haaaa-haaaa!

I'm beginning to think
neptunia has a point...

We sure dumped an awful
lot of junk down here.

What? You're
defending that lunatic?

Just trying to see
her side of things.

In case you haven't noticed,

that smelt has severe
delusions of grandeur.

You see, launchpad,

when one feels one
has been wronged,

one does not generally
respond by wiping out a city.

It's not normal.

In fact, it's nuts!

We have to find
a way out of here

so we can save St. canard.

I have it!

Just as I suspected... the eels
operate on alternating current.

Come on, launchpad.
Let's get dangerous.

How do we know which
way we ought to be going?

Relax. Have my keen instincts
ever led us wrong before?

Well... there's a first
time for everything.

Am I overreacting or are
we in serious danger here?

Danger is my middle name.

Funny, us being in
a situation like this

and me now just finding
out what your middle name is.

Later, launchpad. I think I'll
give these homicidal herrings

a breath of fresh air.

We've got to stop
that silly sea serpent

before she destroys the city.

♪♪

Ha ha ha, before long,
everybody in St. canard

will have an ocean view.

You should be helping her, dad,

not trying to stop her.

Gosalyn, dearest, she's
transforming our fair city

into the next Atlantis.

I don't think that qualifies her
for any "good samaritan" awards.

The courageous defender
of the deep perseveres,

passing skillfully
through troubled waters,

seeking to even the score.

Battle stations!
Fiend dead ahead!

♪♪

What are you doing there, d.W.?

I'm recording barracuda
breath's sound.

Well, ok, but I wouldn't
count on it being a big seller.

No, she uses her song
to command the whale,

so I'll simply play it backward

and reverse her evil orders.

I get it. You'll just
push this button and...

Launchpad! No!

♪♪

That boy just doesn't
know when to quit.

Do you think she heard us?!

How's that? I can't hear you

'cause all the noise.

Shhh. Maybe she didn't notice.

Is it my imagination or is
this place getting smaller?

Well, we're safe now.

I saw a picture of
you not long ago.

It was in the
dictionary under dumb.

By the way, do you like Sushi?

I can take it or leave it.

Well, sweetheart,
you're gonna be it.

Here, d.W.

Take that, you merciless marlin.

Well, that's a
fine kettle of fish.

Ha! Once more, the
hero saves the day.

Yeah, but what
about saving the city?

Aaah! And gosalyn!

I demand you drain
the city immediately.

No. No way. Forget it. Dream on.

Whatta ya mean? I'm the hero.

You have to do what I say.

Says who?

It's the way it's
done. That's all.

I play by my own rules

and I'm doing what I gotta
do to stop the pollution.

You're hurting a lot
of innocent people too.

Hey, nobody ever made an omelet
without breaking a few eggs.

But some of them
are pretty good eggs.

Some of them are trying
to stop the pollution.

You may be cleaning
out the city,

but you're cleaning out the
good right along with the bad.

Maybe you could
call your whale back.

I guess it's possible.

But there's no way my
whale can hear me now.

Since somebody broke my trumpet.

Got it! We can amplify your
voice with the sub's loudspeaker.

You've got some pretty
good ideas for a moron.

Oh, I forgot. Somebody's
overeager octopus sunk it.

Well, that's no sweat.

♪♪

It isn't traditional for the hero
to show gratitude to the villain,

but thanks for sparing the city.

Maybe there's something
worth salvaging in it.

Wasn't there
something else, dad?

No. That was it. Nothing more.

Are you sure, dad?

Oh, yeah. Slipped my mind.

Well, ah, I found this on the beach
and thought you might want it.

This'll come in handy next
time I teach you slobs a lesson.

But, honey, I hope there
won't be a next time.

Don't worry, I'll
see to it myself.

See you around, honey.

Ptooey! I think I prefer
being on her bad side.

I wish she'd flooded the place

till the highest
skyscraper was underwater.

That would've really
taught those slobs a lesson.

Gosalyn, I think you
may have missed the point.

The point is that all problems,
no matter how severe,

can be solved in
peaceful ways. And after...

Hey! What do you
think you're doing,

you big slob?!

Litterbugs!
