These final episodes have been fantastic! Excited to see how season 1 ends next week!Sorry the audio isn't as good as it usually is. My microphone decided to quit half way through recording so I had to use the camera audio.

"Please let this actually be an answer!" *monkey's paw curls* A crucial thing to keep in mind here is that the disaster was caused by the storm, which Scrooge specifically says they couldn't have reasonably predicted. Yes, to the extent that any one person can be considered primarily responsible, it was Della, but the crash still wasn't really her fault. If we were going full air crash investigation on this, the final NTSB accident report would list the primary cause as damage caused by weather, with inadequate flight planning and lax safety culture as contributing factors. This is critical to remember when going into character analysis here. For Della's part, from her perspective, she arguably WAS taking the safe option. She had full confidence in her own piloting skills, and it would be perfectly safe to leave her eggs in an incubator for a few hours, or at most a few days, while she went up for her test flight. Honestly, it's hard to even say whether her assessment of the risk was inaccurate based on the information available to her- after all, all available evidence indicates that the storm was completely unexpected to her or anyone else. And besides, she had at this point been going on death-defying adventures for years. She was accustomed to risk, which makes it very easy to underestimate how dangerous something is. Normalization of risk is a problem in real life just as much if not more than in cartoons. Scrooge bears less responsibility than Della, but his poor judgement was still a contributing factor. Webby's assessment of the situation was pretty much spot-on- it wasn't his fault, but building the rocket was a bad idea. However, while Scrooge wasn't responsible for the initial disaster, he was responsible for his handling of it, and hiding all evidence of Della's mere existence, never mind the circumstances of her death, doesn't exactly paint him in the best light. While Webby got the situation right immediately, she didn't have all that much of a personal emotional stake in it. The boys obviously did. They're not RIGHT to blame Scrooge, but it's understandable that they would. They are, after all, children, and they've literally just seconds ago learned that Scrooge played at least some part in their mother's death. It wouldn't be reasonable to expect perfect objective rational analysis of the situation from them. And frankly, considering what information they actually have, it's not all that unreasonable a conclusion to reach. The way Scrooge tells the story doesn't exactly match what we see in the flashbacks. He talks about how Della wouldn't be stopped by a storm and trying to talk her through it, saying "if anyone could make it, it was her," and complains about her stubbornness. Ironically, he was likely trying to make Della sound better to her kids by emphasizing her daring and skill as a pilot. Unfortunately, that's not what it sounded like. To the kids, it sounds like he was downplaying the danger she was in and encouraging her reckless behavior, and then trying to shift the blame to her afterwards with the comment about her being stubborn. And while that's arguably accurate, telling grieving children their mother got herself killed through her own hubris won't make them like you even if it's true. Scrooge also didn't tell them about the rescue efforts because he got defensive and angry as soon as they started blaming him- and even if he had, his behavior up to this point would make it hard to believe. The boys know Scrooge is a crazy daredevil adventurer, they know he's a penny-pinching miser, and they know he went to great lengths to cover up the disaster afterwards. Even if he had told them everything about the rescue attempts, what reason would they have to believe him? With time, the kids could come around to understanding his side of things, but that would have required Scrooge to be the adult in the room and not get himself worked up when the kids blamed him- especially since he also snapped at Webby, who WAS more or less on his side, which meant Beakley, the one other person who actually knew the whole story, was no longer willing to try to defend him. On a more technical note, the symbolism in this episode is incredible. Obviously, there's the plane balancing on the peak and falling as the family falls apart, and Dewey running onto the wing and throwing away the radio in a parallel to Della, but there's also the lighting. The episode is timed to align with a sunset, both making the light redder as the episode goes on to highlight the drama and symbolizing the end of an era and change in the status quo when the day ends, with bonus points for starting with the plane flying into the sun just before the cold open to symbolize the highest point in the family's relationship thus far. This same technique is used in some of the biggest episodes of Gravity Falls and The Owl House- unsurprising, considering the overlap of writers and animators between all those shows. I wouldn't describe this as my FAVORITE episode, but I do think it's the BEST episode.

Remember episode 1? The exchange between Donald and Scrooge? "Mrs. B. said that you would watch the boys! Can you do that without losing them?!" Donald went for the throat...

My second favourite episode of the series!

Of all the episodes in S1, I think this is the one that brings me the most anxiety! Emotions were running pretty high, and we finally got answers about Della. But at what cost? The family is once again broken. I don't blame Scrooge for what happened to Della, but Webby's right. Scrooge did build the rocket, which he obviously shouldn't have done! But still. He loves his family very much. He just have trouble showing and saying it out loud. Also, the audio wasn't that bad. I understood you perfectly💞

Rotom

been waiting for this. My favorite solo episode of the show and one of my fav episodes of any show. It's not mentioned often for obvious reasons, there's much bigger stuff taking the focus, but the music when Dewey gets on the wing is just..... wow.

Liam Gradwell

This episode is probably my absolute favourite. David Tennant’s performance as Scrooge was at its peak, especially with the “I Am” scene. That hurt deep. Plus Dana Terrace animated parts of this episode, which makes me love it even more. 😭💜

This episode may be my all time favorite Ducktales episode. 😭 The internet reaction to it when it released was INSANE. The people were quaking, utterly shook. lol ✋️

Annabella

You're so right about the tension and buildup caused by juxtaposing the emotional turmoil of the characters with the physical teetering of the plane. It's such a well-written episode on every level.

Void Weaver

If you haven't yet watched it you should watch the cast sing the original theme song on the Disney XD youtube channel

Tintros

It's going to feel like SUCH a long time before the next episode...

This episode lives in my head rent free all the time. The moments when dewey is out on the edge of the plane and scrooge is begging him to come back. The fact that no one else knows how hard scrooge tried to save Della and find her. It's so heartbreaking for everybody because it was a lot of mistakes made even down to the fact that no one should've kept this a secret from the boys as much as they did. This episode always makes me cry. And the fact that just a few episodes ago scrooge told webby to call him uncle and then here told her she wasn't family. 😭😭😭😭 loved your reaction to this.
