Back to Jail

Smith and Jones, the two rookie cops, were pacing the prison exercise yard.

"Gee, I hate to see what's going to happen to us," sighed Officer Jones.

"Yeah, like, he'll have our badges for sure," said Smith.

A shadow passed over the yard.

"Huh," said Jones. "What's that?"

"I think it's, like, a Solar Eclair" guessed Smith.

"Heads up," yelled Launchpad.

The two rookies looked up. The Quackyear Blimp was flying overhead.

"Cargo away boys" said Scrooge McDuck.

They lowered the Beagle Boys down on a rope.

"Thank's, Mr. McDuck," said Jones.

"Like, Right-O," said Smith. "Like, its back to the slammer for you three."

Big Time groaned.

Some time later:

Scrooge was standing on the platform overlooking his money. He was joined by his nephews, Webby, Mrs. Beakly, Duckworth, Doofus, Launchpad, Gyro Gearloose and the two cops.

"I vacuumed all your money back into your bin," said Gyro. "I filled the hole the Beagle Boys dug with my new invention - Steel-Reinforced Cement. I also placed new burglar alarms beneath the vault."

"Good work, me boy" said Scrooge. "Now the Beagle Boys will never try to dig into me vault again."

"Also good work, lads, Launchpad, Doofus - guarding me money while Gyro vacuumed it back."

Scrooge went on. "And great work Launchpad - I tip me hat to the best pilot in Duckburg - a lot of people could have been hurt if you had crashed that blimp."

Scrooge was sterner when he turned to Smith and Jones. "I hope you learned a lesson . . . never, ever turn your backs on the Beagle Boys. But I'm glad you lads weren't fired - in time perhaps you'll make good cops."

Smith and Jones saluted.

"Thanks, Mr. McD" said Launchpad appreciatively.

"Aye, this has been a good day after all," said Scrooge.

Scrooge decided to give way to rare sentimentality.

"How about everyone join me at the best hamburger stand in Duckburg?"

Everyone cheered.

The End

Miscellaneous Episode References:

1. The joke about the Solar Eclair is taken from Allowance Day.

2. At the end of Scroogerella, Scrooge, Webby, Mrs. Beakly, Duckworth and the nephews go "the best hamburger stand in Duckburg" (and Scrooge even lets them "even order hamburgers")

3. The police rookies and the Beagle Babes appear in The Good Muddah's.

4. A blimp flying over the prison, and references to the money falling into the sewer, originate from a Drain in the Economy.

5. There are several episodes where the Beagle Boys break out of jail with tools and weaponry hidden in a cake. Their breakout in The Money Vanishes most closely resembles the scenario here.
