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 thugs

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 gun 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-ho! So you're the one behind it all!

Why do I bother?

Sorry about the hole.
