03x01 - Land of Tra La La

[bunniefuu]

"Life is like
a hurricane"

"Here in duckburg"

"Race cars, lasers,
aeroplanes"

"It's a duck blur"

"Might solve a mystery"

"Or rewrite history"

"Duck tales"

"Ooh ooh ooh"

"Every day they're out there
making duck tales"

"Ooh ooh ooh"

"Tales of derring-do"

"Bad and good
luck tales"

"D-d-d-danger"

"Watch behind you"

"There's a stranger
out to find you"

"What to do? Just grab
on to some duck tales"

"Ooh ooh ooh"

"Every day they're out there
making duck tales"

"Ooh ooh ooh"

"Tales of derring-do"

"Bad and good
luck tales"

"Ooh ooh ooh"

"Not ponytails"

"Or cottontails"

"No, duck tales"

"Ooh ooh ooh"

No I don't want to buy
that factory today.

I do not want to insure
my insurance policy!

A woman's suing me
for $1 million

Because I did not
tip my hat?

People here are
asking for money.

Some guy wants a
donation to the ltbb.

Ltbb. What's that?

The league
to ban billionaires.

The trouble
with having money

Is that
everyone wants it.

I'm mrs. Imogene
snootsberry.

Mr. Mcduck must
donate to the home

For the homeless
homing pigeons.

Please let me...

Ladies
and gentlemen,

Quiet!

As I was saying...

You'll be
taken care of

If you'll
step inside...

Into our file room.

They're seizing
my oil wells?

You'll hear
from my lawyers.

Chiselers and glad handers
and deadbeats.

It's too much.

I know. I'll hide
in the file room.

Mr. Mcduck?

[Crowd yammering]

I've had it.

I hate my money!

It's brought me tears.

Park squirrels are
happier than me.

Mr. Mcduck isn't giving
away more money.

He hasn't given
away any yet.

Details, details.

Go on, get. Shoo!

Mr. Mcduck,
they're gone.

Interesting.

He's just overworked.

I'm prescribing
a mild nerve medicine.

Better prescribe
industrial strength, doc.

This is only putting

A band-aid
on the boo-boo.

The cure's
a long vacation

Away from money.

No matter
where he goes,

People ask
for money.

There's a place
with no money,

Like trala la.

Tr-trala la?

Got to get there.

Where?

It's a valley

Hidden in the himalala mountains

Where no one
has heard of money.

Just what
the doctor ordered.

Fine.
Here's my bill.

You're a very
sick doctor.

Big overnight bag,
isn't it?

Errgh! You can never...

Have too much...

Dental floss.

Your gismo duck suit?

I don't leave home
without it.

When launchpad pilots,

I want extra
hazard pay.

Pay?

Mention money and
you do the hokey-pokey.

You guys, wake up.

There are
the himalalas.

Warm up your radar.

That's it
for this sector.

Any longer, I'll be
working into overtime.

That'll cost you.

[Splutters]

[Gulps]

Ah!

Something on radar.

It's a round valley

With houses
at the bottom.

Could be something.
Let's land.

Wowee!
Hey, look at that!

It's awfully small.

Think you can land?

Launchpad mcquack
can land on a dime.

I can crash
on a dime.

Hang on!

My stars
and garters!

We'll be landing soon.

Please bring your seats
to an upright position.

Turn the plane
upright.

Look out!
A rice paddy!

Easy, mr. Mcd.

Between you
and this plane,

We'll have
steamed rice.

Uncle scrooge, look!

Welcome, travelers.

I'm the high mucky
duck of trala la.

Trala la!
We've found it!

You have no use
for money here?

Uh, please,
what is money?

This place might be
all right after all.

Come. I'll show you
to your guest quarters.

This is perfect,
isn't it, fenton?

This himalala hilton
costs a pretty penny.

You are
our guests.

This house
is on the house.

Now for
the real test...

A little
sly gratuity.

No, no, no.

We don't need paper.

We are happy
to help one another.

Paradise!

A moneyless place doesn't
make sense... Or dollars.

And as an accountant,

The only thing
I can count on

Is being unemployed!

This place smells as phony
as a $3.00 lobster.

It's got to be a hoax.

I'll get the low-down
in this getup.

Even dear mama
wouldn't recognize me.

Good day, mr. Fenton.

Huh! Lucky guess.

Hall of records.

I'll find the truth there

Or engelbert humperdinck's
greatest hits.

Aha! These records
go back hundreds of years.

Excuse me.

Uh, I was reading
our inspiring history.

I'll get any book
you like, mr. Fenton.

Never heard
of the guy.

Farmer's gossip!

That's where I'll get
the scoop on this place.

Good day, mr. Fenton.

[Clink]

I've never seen anything
like this before.

It must belong
to a visitor.

Pardon, mr. Fenton.

Does this belong to you?

That's a bottle cap.

Fill me in.

I can't believe this
share-everything valley.

You never heard
of money?

Money?

Gold!

Diamonds!

Anything rare
and precious?

How do you mean
"rare"?

Sheesh!

Like that bottle cap.

It's the only one here.

So it's worth 12 sheep.

This tiny thing?

You don't know us.

Watch.

Look at the
beautiful bottle cap

Mr. Fenton gave me.

Ooh!
- Ooh!

I've never seen one.

I'll give you a sheep.

I'll give two sheep.

Four!

I've already
been offered seven sheep

For my bottle cap.

What do I do?

Hold out for 15.

I'm going to
stay here forever,

Where I don't have to
worry about money.

I feel so good,

Great idea!

Mr. Mcduck, trala la
isn't what we thought.

So many bottle caps!

Mr. Scrooge, you're
the richest duck here.

Bottle caps?
He's got bottle caps?

I'll give 200 pigs
for one bottle cap.

I'll serve you
for 10 years!



What next?
This is a nightmare!

Take this
and leave me alone!

[Hammering]

Won't you help the trala la
fund for balding sheep?

How could this happen?

My paradise is ruined!

This never was
any paradise.

Look at that "valuable
bottle cap" nonsense.

What nonsense?

Oh, i, uh...

Well, I just...

You started all this!

Uncle scrooge,
calm down!

I was protecting my job.

Accountants are
just red ink here.

I'm going to punt
that punk back to duckburg.

I'll make it
the way it was.

What?

How?

How many more caps,
fenton?



You are
most generous

To share your
wealth with us.

The pleasure
is all mine.

Here's one for you,

And you, and...

Fenton,
you counted wrong.

One more cap, huey.

That's it.

Everyone has
one bottle cap.

Yay!
- Yay! - Yay!

They were only
nuts for bottle caps

Because they were rare.

I am twice as rich

As anyone else
in trala la.

Old scrooge gave sockhop
two bottle caps.

No fair! I wants
two caps.

We all want
two bottle caps.

We want more caps!

We want more caps!

Give them all two.

No can do,
only five left.

Stop, stop, stop!

Launchpad,
get out here.

Fly back to
the outside world,

Buy a million caps

And scatter them
here.

Why be chintzy?

Make it a billion.

Yay!
- Yay! - Yay!

Guess I'm a
good egg again.

He's not going
to make it!

Soon bottle caps
will rain from the sky.

Where is launchpad?

It's been two days.

The natives
are getting restless.

Hope there's
no bad weather.

And no high mountains.

You're not worried?

Who, me? Worried?

If launchpad
isn't here soon,

We'll have to hold him
together with hoops.

Yikes! We'll have to
fireproof him, too.

Where's the wealth
you promised us?

It's coming.
Be patient.

Wait! Listen!

Bottle caps!

It's raining
bottle caps!

Riches!

Millions of beautiful
shiny bottle caps!

Good old launchpad
did it!

Hooray for mr. Scrooge!

Hooray for mr. Scrooge!

Hooray for mr....

It works like this.


Are worth 10 peppy pops

Or one dr. Peptalk.

It's pleasant
to dive around in it

And burrow through it

And throw it
to hit my head.

I said
I can fix everything.

Now I can relax.

People won't
pester me again.

Tomorrow everyone will
forget bottle caps.

Ah! A hamburger!



My paradise lost.

The first planeload
was a million caps.

You told launchpad
to bring a billion caps.

Blathering blatherskite.

That's
a thousand planeloads.

Great whiskers!

By the time we're done,

The trala lalians
will be drowning in caps.

What are we
going to do?

If only we
can reach launchpad.

Your gizmo-duck suit
has a radio.

Go say blathering
blatherskite

And put it on.

There's two
teensy problems.

The suit's
in its crate.

Unpack!

That's
the other problem.

The crate's still
on launchpad's jet.

Sorry.

I'm sorry for
the day I met you.

You have
an appointment

With the court
of trala la.

The prisoners
are found guilty

Of the high crime
of littering.

Hopsack!

Do your duty!

If you drop us,

The caps
will keep coming.

They'll bury you
to the treetops.

Oh!
- Oh!

To save trala la,
let us stop the planes.

It's a trick
to save themselves.

Drop them.

No. His words are wise,

But we aren't dopes.

The adults will go.

If the planes
don't stop tomorrow,

We'll drop the boys
in the lake.

Mr. Mcduck,

Scaling mountains
isn't my job.

This has to fall
under hazard pay.

Never mind. Sorry.

Oh! We're there!

It'll take days
to reach the town.

Not with
my nephews at stake.

Wait! I learned
a trick mining gold.

Give me your canteen.

You'll have really cold
feet in bed tonight.

There! Instant toboggan.

Blathering
blatherskite!

Turn left! Left!

Whoa!

This is almost as fun
as making money.

I'm thinking money
and not shaking.

You're not
steering either.

Aah!

Can't we slow down?

We don't want to.

Whoa!

We're halfway
up this mountain.

Yeah. Right.

I'm not sure
I can face this again.

You youngsters
are getting soft.

In my day...

Uh-oh.

Now what?

Learn to fly?

Yes, or my nephews will
have to breathe underwater.

Look! It must
be launchpad!

Let's get his attention.

How do you spell
s-o-s?

He's not
changing course.

You're on
the wrong mountain.

Stop delivering
bottle caps!

Why does he think
we're here?

Blathering
blatherskite!

Cool it
with the caps!

Good work, fenton,
er, gizmo duck.

Fly me back fast.

We'll save the boys.

Hey! I think
that's a first.

I crashed, no hands.

Your uncle's
time is up.

If we hear
an airplane now,

Prepare to die!

Ah!
- Ah!

This may be the end,

But let's go out like
brave junior woodchucks!

Hey! What the...

Don't worry,
gizmo buddies.

Gizmo duck is here!

Yay!
- Yay! - Yay!

Gizmo duck!

It is wonderful,
mr. Scrooge.

Your little friend
will cleanse our valley

Of those horrible caps
in no time.

Well, almost no time.

We were lucky
gizmo duck showed up.

Mr. Mcd., You're
the only person

To find trala la.

And the only person
banned from it.

I cannot wait to get
back to duckburg.

You won't mind
the spongers?

After all this,
I know I can handle it.

Good. Now about
that hazard pay...

Hazard pay?

How about
hazard allowances?

We almost
lost it there.

Let's not forget
my three planeloads.

I'm due some overtime.
