[siren]

a mysterious hero protects st. Canard.

he is the terror that Flaps in the night...

he is the eraser that Rubs out typos of crime.

he is...

gosalynnnn's daaad!

What?

"Eraser... Typos of crime...

Gosalyn's dad"?

You can't write this.

You can't tell the World I'm darkwing duck.

I'm just reading it To my english class.

It's not like anyone's Going to be awake.

I gotta write about A family member.

Who says it has to Be a living relative?

The dead ones are Kinda uncooperative.

You think so, huh?

How would you like to meet some?

That depends how.

[launchpad] One more Turn of the wrench

And it's off into The wild blue yonder!

[grunt] Maybe not.

Wait'll you see the Mallard family tree.

Then I can meet the family Bush and mulch pile.

Hey, hey, hey!

Our family produced the Greatest heroes in history.

Ouch.

Is that you, d.W.?

Do we have that extra Cross-differential axle binding?

Not anymore.

Aw, that's our last one.

Say, I know where to find one!

I'm sure they used One in this thing.

Dad, I know this sounds Incredibly out of character,

But I've got to do my homework.

Not until I show you Your family history.

I read about my Forebears all the time!

Well, maybe not all the time.

You'll see that heroism isn't Just a family tradition,

It's genetic.

Whoa! Your ancestors were Professional wrestlers?

No.that is my great-great- Great-great-great-great- great-great-grandad.

The first hero on the Mallard family tree...

Webwulf the barbarian.

He was a great Barbarian warrior...

And the inventor of the wheel.

Pretty impressive, eh?

No kiddin'!

What are the royalties on Somethin' like the wheel?

Ah, here we go!

This is my Great-great-great-grandad,

The chivalrous sir Quackmire mallard...

Knight of the realm, Hero of the duck ages.

This gallant ancestor saved Damsels in distress...

I am so distressed.

And was the first Pole-vaulter in england.

My hero!

[roarrrr]

This book is way cool.

Hey, who's this?

My great-great-grandad...

Sheriff quack mallardson,

Otherwise known as The whittlin' kid...

Fastest draw west Of nacogdoches.

They say his six guns carved Quite a path in the old west.

Whittlin' desperados Like kindling.

Yep, I guess you could Say heroism runs thick

In the ol' mallard veins.

Are swelled heads genetic, too?

Listen, young lady,

You'd better be more...

What's going on?

Looks like someone put a Penny in the fuse box again.

This smacks of the chicanery of that Kingpin of kilowatts... Megavolt!

Well, duh!

Launchpad, let's get danger...

What are you doing With the time top?

Getting a part for The thunderquack.

Launchpad!

I knew that would be trouble.

Now launchpad is lost in time.

I'm back! Oh, I'm back!

Interesting fashion Statement, though.

Boy, it's good to see you guys!

I spent the last three years In ancient rome invading goth.

I finally fixed the Time top and got back.

You're talkin' to Launchpadius mcquackus,

Centurion third class.

Come on, caesar,

As I said three years ago,

Let's get dangerous!

What am I supposed To do for fun?

Your homework!

What kind of fun can Ya have doin' home...

On second thought...

I might not mind This assignment.

Romans were so primitive!

No cars, toenail Clippers, deodorant...

Boy, was there no deodorant!

You'd think they'd Have a pizzeria or two.

All they had were statues.

Everywhere you looked, statues!

How dare these barbarians Do this to you?

Locking you in the dark!

It's... It's shocking!

Don't worry, My little 20-watt tootsie,

Soon you'll be free to Shine whenever you want.

No more darkness for you!

You are in the dark?

What are you doing?

Here's the heartless Taskmaster now!

What? You've got your nerve!

No. I've got yours.

Your nervous Energy, to be exact.

You won't be needing it.

I've got a more Important use for it!

So long, everybody!

Don't ever change.

You certainly never Change, chuckles.

Oh, not again.

Haven't you learned Crime does not pay?

Maybe not, But the benefits package is great.

♪ missed me, missed me ♪

♪ now you can't kiss me ♪♪

Whew! That was close, huh, launchpad?

Oh, no!

That's some of my best work.

Neo-postmodern with A classical motif.

It needs something, or someone.

I always wanted a Statue of me in town.

Go ahead, mega-dolt.

Darkwing duck can take it!

I'm made of sterner stuff, Because I'm a hero, darn it!

What was... Huh?

Is this worth extra Credit on my homework?

I thought you'd like A family reunion.

You just don't go Flitting through time

Higgledy piggledy Rearranging history.

Has it occurred to you

That if we don't get My ancestors back,

Darkwing duck won't exist?

Bummer.

Grandads, We've got to get to the time top

And send you home.

Reckon that might be hard.

Webwulf took a dislike To that contraption.

Verily. Methinks he thought it a demon.

He was quite adamant.

Webwulf smash!

Heh heh. Sort of a barbarian thing.

I'm sure launchpad can fix it.

Oh, yeah.

Will he ever be ok again?

Don't worry, gos.

We'll force megavolt to Return his nervous energy.

That's good.

In the meantime,

Can I take him to art class?

Finals are coming up.

Kidding.

All right. I guess you Can all stay for a while.

Gosalyn will take you To darkwing tower.

Wait! They can help You slam-dunk megavolt!

Hmm. They would come in handy.

Whatever you say. Back they go.

Let's not be hasty.

These are the greatest Heroes of all time.

No one can stop us!

[elevator opens]

Is this the lost and found?

I guess so. I found you...

And you lose!

All right, everybody Say, "Free-eze."

Scatter, grandads!

Ha ha ha ha!

You can't dodge me forever!

Whoa!

Webwulf smash!

Can we talk about this?

Thataway, webwulf! Waste 'im!

Ha ha ha!

Roundy, roundy, roundskin.

I doubt his brain Could power a penlight.

But every little wit helps!

Desist, base villain!

Your foul deeds shall Not go unpunished!

Oh, drat.

Well whittlin', reckon you ought To fill that vermin with lead.

Reckon?

Reckon not girly, I'd be frozen for sure

Trying to plug him With one of these.

It's made of wood!

If I carried a real gun Somebody might get hurt.

Time to suck some gas, evildoer!

I'd rather suck some energy!

Yipes! Oh, dear!

Uh-oh. Power problem.

Going dowwwnnn!

[crash]

Ouch!

Until we figure out How to deal with him,

We'll leave megavolt here.

Come on,heroes.

I can't be related To those guys.

I thought you owe Who you are to them.

You mean those guys?

Roundy, roundy, roundskin!

Whoa!

[snoring]

My faith in genetics Is beginning to weaken.

Maybe they're having an off... Life.

This is the mallard family tree.

You're all here... Or not.

That's weird. Your pictures are here, but you're not.

Somebody pruned that family Tree, I reckon.

Unless I return you To your own times,

You won't fulfill Your heroic destinies.

'tis a noble thought,

But I'm afraid I'm no hero.

I am a cursed mallard, As are we all.

M-m-mallard curse?

But mallards were All great heroes.

It runs in our Veins, doesn't it?

Would that it were so.

Alas, mallards throughout time

Hath failed to measure up.

I've spent my life

In the attempt to Perform one heroic task.

I don't know why, But I always fail.

They named you the whittlin' kid

Because you carved Up desperadoes.

Sorry. They call me the whittlin' Kid 'cause I... Whittle.

Well, that's stupid!

Face it, heroes aren't Born, they're made.

You know, you're right.

I made myself a hero.

I can make them heroes!

Webwulf not afraid to fight!

He great warrior!

At least there's One hero to help us.

Ooh! Roundy!

Roundy, roundy, roundskin.

Roundy, roundy, roundskin!

That's it. I'm cursed.

I'm descended from A line of weenies.

Maybe I should have Some buttermilk.

If they don't go back,

How will they have any Darkwing descendants?

Simple. H.G. Wells proved the Asimovian theory that you can't...

If a guy shoots His grandfather...

I'm doooomed!

Don't play coy with me!

Are you on or off?

Fine. Keep your secrets.

It doesn't matter. Soon st. Canard will be frozen!

I'll have enough nervous energy

To light every bulb In the world forever!

Mad?

Who said that?

Was it you, bright boy?

Say it to my face.

These trays will deflect the Beam from megavolt's gun.

Methinks you should Handle this without us.

Don't worry about it.

It's as simple as Falling off a log.

I can do that.

There he is!

This is a dead-end And so are you.

Ok, like we planned.

Ohh...

Charge.

Be right there,

I reckon.

Webwulf ready to fight.

Oopski.

Reckon ya better Start without us.

Ooh!

Relatives of yours?

Good! I'll know where To send the flowers!

What d'ya know? You're the light of my life.

You let megavolt take my dad!

We are but mallards And eternally cursed.

I reckon it's so, I reckon.

I'm a mallard now, too!

I say we're gonna save my dad!

You may be "The dweebs Time forgot" now,

But you're gonna be a Way-cool crime-fightin' crew!

Have at you, varlet!

I'm better with a horse.

Really!

Suck gas...

I reckon.

[coughing]

Argghh!

Webwulf smash!

Way to go, wulfman!

Roundy, roundy, roundskin.

This may take longer Than I thought.

It's the end of the world.

I reckon.

Megavolt's controlling Every light in st. Canard!

I reckon darkwing's a goner.

No way, kimosabe!

He was trying to Make you heroes!

It's payback time!

Verily! Darkwing believed in us!

Reckon it's time we Believe in ourselves.

Let's get dangerous!

If it wasn't beautiful, It would be horrible.

What's the matter?

Speechless?

Ha ha ha ha!

At least you're not lonely.

I feel so... So... So...

Just so darn good!

Thanks to my Electro-nerve generator,

Every light within 10 miles is On, on, on!

Even when the doors are closed.

Shine my bulbies!

Not so fast, bulbhead!

We are the terrors That flap in the night.

The splinters you can't Tweeze, I reckon.

The rust spots on The armor of crime!

We, uh...

We...

We bad!

Webwulf, roundy, Roundy, roundskin.

Why do I make so Many new friends?

It must be my Magnetic personality!

Now it's time to Play freeze-tag!

You're it.

Who turned off the juice?

This is made of wood!

Reckon you're looking for This, I reckon.

You are the fastest whittler In the west, I reckon!

Prepare to meet thy Fate, villain!

I'd rather heat your Feet, lancelot.

No!

[alarm blares]

Anybody got the right century?

You might have Broken my generator,

But you haven't broken me!

Ok, then let's go for broke.

That one was for the mallards...

Past and present.

He ought to keep until The police get here.

Right, heroes?

Great! I reckon. Yeah!

She'll drop you all Off and zap back here.

I reckon I'll miss y'all.

Nope, I don't reckon.

I know it.

Don't worry.

Everything will be The same in your time.

Not quite. Thanks to you and gosalyn,

We're proud to bear The mallard name.

And I'm proud to have Descended from you.

Yep, that's that.

You've been rescued,

And the family honor is saved.

Not bad for a day's work.

Your day isn't over yet.
