2025-01-15 20:49:35 +0000 UTCThe meeting was about the charity his and scrooge's companies opened together. I think that's why.

2025-01-14 21:55:58 +0000 UTCWhat I love about this ep is that, had he not owned up to it, Glomgold would have actually succeeded here. For once, his scheme was... smart. It shows you that, even if Glomgold is an idiot, he does know Scrooge well, and knows what would drive him up the wall. But of course, it goes both ways - Scrooge KNEW that Glomgold would not be able to keep himself from gloating, which ended up being his downfall. Fun ep!

2025-01-14 20:47:19 +0000 UTCGlomgold tried, still, why was he at scrooge's place for a meeting anyways?

2025-01-14 20:34:20 +0000 UTCThe bet was "Whoever is the richest duck by this time next year, wins." And "Winner gets the loser's company." Also, in that same episode. Owlson signed them both up to fund the Dimes for Ducklings charity, so they're technically business partners now. That's why she and Glomgold were going to have a meeting with Scrooge in his building.

2025-01-14 20:20:40 +0000 UTC8:05 You missed the part where Gyro says that all thieves caught are "placed under genetic experimentation for Operation: Gyro-Pocalypse." This chicken's a real mad scientist, alright.

2025-01-14 19:37:54 +0000 UTC"The amount doesn't matter. What matters is the bin has been compromised!" Honestly, he's not wrong. I mean, the *last* time it was comprimised, they ended up with a money-eating shark in the bin - and this was with someone *adding* to the bin, not taking something out. "Gold fever" is a nod to the pilot/movie for the original Duck Tales series.

2025-01-14 19:00:50 +0000 UTCGlomgold's bet with Scrooge was that whichever of them is the richest "by the end of the year" (what exactly this means is unclear because the timeline in this show is a bit of a mess) wins the loser's company. Glomgold challenged Scrooge to this at the end of The Ballad of Duke Baloney while taunting him over the money he stole from Scrooge as a kid, and Scrooge has enough of an ego that he accepted. That's one of this season's major recurring arcs, so if you like Glomgold, good news on that front. The reason Glomgold and Owlson were having a meeting at the Bin was that while Glomgold was still living as Duke Baloney and Owlson was running his company, she arranged a joint charity program with Scrooge's company, and that was already established by the time Glomgold came back. This episode was released in 2019, so the characters putting on masks while Scrooge goes off on insane conspiracy theories rather than admit he's sick was completely coincidental. I'm not sure if it aged brilliantly or horribly, but it certainly did age. "All I Do Is Win" was originally a temp track for the storyboards meant to be replaced with original music in the final cut, but the staff liked the joke so much that they actually licensed it. This also means that DJ Khaled exists in the world of Ducktales. When asked, the writers said he's "DJ Quailed" here. After the episode aired, someone asked Frank Angones on Tumblr if Glomgold really spent a year in a staring contest with a baby. His response: "12. MONTHS. LATER."

2025-01-14 17:52:37 +0000 UTCIs "87 Celt" a typo, or a Scottish in-joke that's going over my head?

2025-01-14 17:26:16 +0000 UTCFun fact All I Do Is Win was originally only a placeholder but the crew loved it so they got permission to use it

2025-01-14 17:10:47 +0000 UTCThe title is a play on the name of the 1974 novel/1976 movie "The Seven-Per-Cent Solution", wherein Sherlock Holmes is treated by Sigmund Freud
