Scrooge McDuck (2017)/Relationships

Family

Matilda McDuck

Scrooge and Matilda like each other but like many siblings can just as easy end at each others throats. When Scrooge sees her in The Fight for Castle McDuck! he is at first very happy to see her. But when he finds out she painted his childhood ball of hair wiskers he ends up having an argument with her which end up in a squable before it turns to a full off fight (partly because of Webby Vanderquack (2017) interference). In the end they manage to make up and together with the rest of the family drives out Phantom Blot (2017) and Pepper of their anciestial home.

Donald Duck

Donald is Scrooge McDuck's hothead nephew and closest relative from his youngest sister, Hortense. About 10 years before the events of "Woo-oo!", Donald went on many adventures with Scrooge, alongside his twin sister, Della. But after Della disappeared with the Spear of Selene, Donald and Scrooge haven't talked to each other since then. Donald had never told Huey, Dewey, and Louie about Scrooge being their great uncle. When Glomgold used Donald against Scrooge; to threaten his life to get the treasure of Atlantis Scrooge back down showing that he still cares. After Donald's home was destroyed, he is willing to move in with Scrooge and allows Huey, Dewey, and Louie to continue to go on adventures with Scrooge. He and Donald mostly have a love-hate relationship though they have since reconciled after "The Shadow War!" when Donald found out from Mrs. Beakley how far Scrooge went in trying to save Della. Later, when arranging for Donald's month-long cruise in the Caribbean, Scrooge sets a party hat to wish his nephew well.

Scrooge later shows how far he has come to mend the bond with Donald during The Last Adventure!. During the adventure Bradford Buzzard threaten to throw Donald into the Celego circet who has been modified to destroy everything in it if Scrooge don't sign the contract. Despite Donald's pleads for Scrooge to not do it and find a way to best him he signs it to avoid risking loosing Donald. Donald later return the sentiment when he blocks a blast who would have hit Scrooge as he was unable to move because he had signed the contract. Scrooge show his thanks to Donald over this by saying his name with warmth and proudness which is returned. A reweers version of how they said each other names in the first episode.

Della Duck

Della is Scrooge's niece from his youngest sister, Hortense, they went on many adventures together alongside her twin brother, Donald. They were very close as he saw a lot of himself in her; with her fiery spirit and adventurous attitude, unlike his nephew Donald. Although sometime over 10 years before the events of "Woo-oo!", she got stranded on the moon, and ever since then he has avoided Della's brother and children up but until the events of "Woo-oo!". The disappearance of Della came as an emotional blow to Scrooge. When Della returned home after 10-11 years, Scrooge welcomed her warmly. He reminds her of much changes that transpired since Della was last in Duckburg. Scrooge also tries to keep his niece from serious danger.

Huey Duck

Upon meeting his great-nephews, Scrooge thought they were ordinary kids but then saw their potential. With Huey, Scrooge is very impressed by how smart and ambitious he is, this is very well shown in The Impossible Summit of Mt. Neverrest! where they were both very determined to reach the top of the Mountain. And with the difficulty of Scrooge's stubbornness, Huey eventually gets through to him, which causes Scrooge to respects Huey's maturity and common sense.

Dewey Duck

During the events of "Woo-oo!" Scrooge had a hard time remembering Dewey's name, which made Dewey desperate in trying to impress Scrooge but with his mischief, Scrooge only saw him as ignorant, impulsive and reckless. Though when he figured out how to escape, Scrooge's opinion of him change to quick-witted and ambitious, and remembered his name. But it isn't to say he no longer saw him in the negative characteristics, as later in the season in "The Last Crash of the Sunchaser!", Scrooge saw nothing but ignorance and recklessness in Dewey all throughout the episode while they were stuck on the peak of a mountain. Their relationship took a further nosedive once Scrooge told the three boys what had happened to their mother Della Duck and it resulted in a heated argument and the boys moving out of the Mansion. Dewey later forgave Scrooge and came to save him after Magica De Spell had exacted her vengence on Scrooge and trap him in his number one dime in The Shadow War!. Dewey with the help of his brothers and Webby Vanderquack saves Scrooge and he thanks them all and especially Dewey as he got the dime away from Magica and brought him back and they make up.

Louie Duck

Scrooge loves his nephews yet with Louie, Scrooge has shown to be a bit short with him which is shown in the episode "The Great Dime Chase!" Scrooge is shown to be annoyed by Louie's lazy and spoiled attitude, that it made Scrooge want to teach him that hard honest work is the most rewarding. But in "The Most Dangerous Game...Night!", he is shown to have been impressed with Louie's capabilities of straitening and seeing through every detail in order to come out with the best outcome possible, something which made Scrooge see a lot of his mother's personality in him, and even encouraged Louie to start up his own business plans.

Webby Vanderquack

Webby grew up in McDuck Mansion but for the first 10 years of her life even so she wasn't close to Scrooge McDuck (2017) as Beakley told her not to bother him and he was busy running his business and mourning the loss of Della and grumble over Donald leaving. Despite this she still idolised the famous billionaire and researched everything about him. When the triplets arrived on Scrooge's doorstep he starts taking an interest in them and Webby equally and he was impressed with her and the boys quick thinking and knowledge. Even so it was first in the episode From the Confidential Casefiles of Agent 22! that Webby and Scrooge had their first real adventure together. As Webby's grandmother Bentina Beakley (2017) had been kidnapped by Black Heron. During the mission to save her Scrooge becomes impressed by her abilities and skills and even calls her Webby Wanderduck his new partner. When the mission is over Scrooge tells Webby to call him Uncle Scrooge, recieving a hug in return. The insistent on calling him Uncle Scrooge shows he now views her as a honorary niece on the line of Huey, Dewey, and Louie Duck (2017). That sentiment seem to have gone out the window in the episode The Last Crash of the Sunchaser! where he says that she is not family when he is in a disagreement with the three triplets over the loss of their mom. This hurts Webby a lot but she still feels an urge to defend him when the boys move out the mansion and tries to bring them together. In the end of season 1 all four of the kids makes peace with Scrooge and they decide to stay with him in the mansion.

In season 2 Webby and Scrooge seem to grow even closer and in Moonvasion! she jumps into his arms and hugs him after the final battle which makes him smile and holds her tight. This indicating that she has become the one he is closest with out of all the children.

In The Last Adventure! Webby realise that she is a partial clone of Scrooge thus making her the daughter of Scrooge McDuck (2017). This makes Scrooge her father, the same duck she has always looked so much up to. When she saves Scrooge from being hit by Bradford she utters the word "Get away from my dad" using her fathers broken cane. Scrooge is utterly surprised by this but accepts it. When the battle is over he request to be reinfirmed that he did hear it right which he is and then opens his arms so Webby can hug him calling her "Webby darling". As Beakley fears Webby will reject her she leaves but is quickly reassured she will still have a place in their family. As they fly home Scrooge is shown to be a bit overprotective now that he has the parental role.

Employees

Bentina Beakley

Mrs. Beakley is Scrooge's no-nonsense house keeper, bodyguard, and closest confidant. She takes her job seriously and professionally yet as his employee, she is very honest and straight-forward. She often calls Scrooge out, she's the only person he really trusts. Though is still polite and respectful, and looks out for him and his well being. The two of them met in the 1960's, when they were both agents for the spy organization, S.H.U.S.H.. On their first mission seen in flashbaks in From the Confidential Casefiles of Agent 22! the two of them didn't get along well as Scrooge was making plans on the go while Beakley was a strict 'doing it by the book' type of person. In the end as they both saved each other they became friend and Scrooge invited her to call him Scrooge and she revealed her true name rather than letting him calling her by her code name. The two became good friends and Scrooge invited her to his Christmass party in Last Christmas! where she seemed to have fun and was dancing and flirting with The Ghost of Christmass Future after having rejected the Ghost of Christmass present. Sometimes between the 1960's and present Ludwig Von Drake went missing and Bentina took over his job as director of S.H.U.S.H. while Scrooge became director of McDuck Enterprise. Even so the two of them was still close friend and when Beakley called on Scrooge for a mission in The First Adventure! Scrooge went to answer the call despite being buzzy. During the call Scrooge asked her to chose another one but she stated he was the one she trusted the most. When Bentina some years later found Project 87 she took the girl and renamed her Webby Vanderquack and brought her to McDuck Manor. Despite being depressed over the loss of Della and Donald taking the eggs in anger over it he opened his door and let his old frined and partner in. Scrooge hired Beakley to be the house keeper and she was giving food and a home in return. Scrooge was also letting Webby grow up in the Mansion unknowing that she was in fact his biological daughter. Yet it was not just a practical solution but also a way to protect Beakley and Webby from F.O.W.L. and other villains. Scrooge is willing to go far to make sure the two of them is protected as he was willing to risk his life when he sets after Beakley as she was kidnapped by Black Heron her arche enemny in From the Confidential Casefiles of Agent 22! and refused help from Webby knowing that Beakley wanted her to remain safe.

Launchpad McQuack

Launchpad is Scrooge's driver to his many automobiles and pilot to his plane the Sunchaser, while Scrooge can be annoyed by Launchpad's dim-witted nature and clumsy antics he appreciates his loyalty, kindness, and helpful nature. Scrooge states that the reason he hasn't fired him is because Launchpad is one of they few people he knows who is as crazy as he is. Scrooge is a bit hard on Launcapad as seen in The Living Mummies of Toth-Ra! where he berates Launcepad for eating while he tells about the mummy of Toth-Ra and tells to show him some respect. All though when Scrooge is thrown off the mummy Launcepad tries to grab him resulting in Launcepad being knicked out and Scrooge shows his worry for Launcepad for the first time. Launcepad seem very eager to impresse Scrooge as he mailed him his driver license so he could be the first one to know in Beware the B.U.D.D.Y. System!. During the episode Launcepad believe Scrooge will replace him with a self driving car. Desperate to prove himself he challange Mark Beaks to a raise. Launcepad ask Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera for pointers rather than a jet stating that if Scrooge believe an uncrashable robot is a good thing he needs to get dangerous in the safest way possible. When Scrooge leaves after the race which Launcepad lost and he believe himself fired he still insisted on saving Scrooge as the robot gets evil. Launcepad states that Scrooge could still count on him. At the end Scrooge congratulate him for getting his driver license as he had been told by Dewey Duck (2017). Happy that he still has a job and that his boss is proud of him he huggs Scrooge which he allows and then stating that his confidence in him is all he need and tries to destroye the driverlicense but Scrooge say he should keep it which he does. While neither of the two ever states it out loud it is clear that Launcepad has become a part of Scrooge's extent family. Launcepad is a regulair guest in Scrooge McDuck Manor (2017) and Scrooge has never expressed any frustration with Launcepad despite him costing a fortune in crashed planes, cars and damage to the sorrundings.

Duckworth

Duckworth was formerly Scrooge's butler and helping him tending to his buisness. Duckworth often tried to raign in Scrooge when he was to unfocused such as seen in Last Christmas. Where he during the party mistakes the future past Scrooge with the pressent Scrooge and prevents him for dancing reminding him he made the party to networking while correcting his clothings. In The First Adventure! you can see Duckworth keeping track of Scrooges schedule for him. When Scrooge packs for the upcoming trip he tries to settle his niece Della Duck and his nephew Donald Duck to help Duckworth. Duckworth none to please with this pretends to be happy but reminds him he would have to be paid overtime knowing full well Scrooge would never accept that. The two seem to have a very strong friendship for after Duckworth died Scrooge refused to ever have a party again as he was sure no one could do it better than Duckworth and he missed his friend ever so much. When Duckworth returns as a ghost in McMystery at McDuck McManor! Scrooge refers to Duckworth as "the ghost of my most loyal servant". Scrooge in the same episode called him "my favorite butler" hinting that other people has filled the position before Duckworth, but he favored him. Duckworth seem to be glad to be back as he chose to continue his work for Scrooge as a Ghost although he takes a much overdoo vacation in the land of the dead as seen in Treasure of the Found Lamp!. Scrooge trusts Duckworth to guard the mansion when he is not around as seen in GlomTales! when he fend of the invaders in his demon force. Unfortunately Magica De Spell throws an amulet, sending him out of the mansion. in The Last Adventure! Scrooge ask him to guard the mansion if F.O.W.L. comes back. Duckworth expresses worry for Scrooge as he doesn't feel it is the best team to go after Webby Vanderquack and Huey Duck. When Bradford Buzzard captured Scrooge in The Last Last Adventure he hints he was the one who killed Duckworth.

Gyro Gearloose

Gyro Gearloose is Scrooge's number one scientist according to his own words. There is no denying that Gyro is a brilliant scientist and Scrooge encourage him. He has invented sound powered trains, little bulb, a time tub just to name a few. Even so he does have a problem from getting his machines to turn evil. This along with his lack of social skills makes him a target for Scrooge's Board of Directors. While Scrooge defend him and say he is one of the most brilliant minded people of our time while the buzzards wanted to fire him. While Scrooge saw his vallue he wasn't blind to demanding results from Gyro as he said the board demanded results in Beware the B.U.D.D.Y. System!. Gyro does seem to like Scrooge. When he was captured by shadows in The Shadow War! Magica De Spell demand the trapped Scrooge to tell if it is a good friend or just a work aquintence. When Scrooge confirmed to be the latter he is feeling rejected unaware that Scrooge did so to save him from feeling the wrath of the evil sorceress.

Later, Fenton use project Blatherskite to become Gizmoduck (2017) and save Scrooge McDuck, Dewey Duck and Mark Beaks. Sometime after, Fenton prevents a bank robbery with the help of the Gizmo suit. This captures the eye and admiration of Huey in Who is Gizmoduck?!. After some errors and criticism, Fenton steals the suit to work for Mark Beaks. Eventually, his use of the suit overloads the core. To save them all, Fenton has to fly the suit out to the sea where it explodes. Impressed by his willingness to sacrifice and abilities, Scrooge spring the hospital suite for Fenton and then hire him as Gizmoduck to protect the city.

Scrooge has meet one of Fenton's ancestors in The Outlaw Scrooge McDuck! when he was young and trying to establish his fortune. He was none too pleased with him and ended up being arrested by the ancestor after a fight with John D. Rockerduck. When it was clear that they were being swindled, the two of them along with Gyro and Goldie O'Gilt teamed up to start them. Fenton seem to be unaware of this fact.

McDuck Enterprises (2017)

McDuck Enterprises is a multi trillion dollar company who stretches throughout the globe. As the director Scrooge is ultimate responsible for all his employee during the company and sub companies. Even so Scrooge most likely have never meet even a little fraction of them. It is not possible to know if he is viewed as a good boss. Even so it is likely most people respect him at some level as running such as a large company is no small task.

Rivals/Enemies

Flintheart Glomgold

Flintheart is the world second richest businessman in the world and one of the most personal enemies Scrooge, because of Glomgold's many failed attempts to out do him and kill him.

Nevertheless, even though they were on the same side during the incident, Glomgold still continues to act like he out-bested Scrooge.

Goldie O'Gilt

Goldie is Scrooge's underhanded ex-partner and his "on-again, off-again" girlfriend. While they are very flirtatious with each other, they often trick one another with Goldie being much more selfish and mischievous of the two. She does, however, still seem to show a soft spot for Scrooge, as seen at the end of "The Golden Lagoon of White Agony Plains!" when she chooses to leave Scrooge a clue to her next adventure inside his top hat.

Magica de Spell

Magica is one of the most dangerous adversaries Scrooge has ever faced. Years ago, she tried to use the Lunar Eclipse on Mt. Vesuvius to seal Scrooge inside his own Number One Dime, but he backfired it on her. In the present, Magica has escaped the dime's confines. Magica then forces Scrooge to watch as she begins to obliterate Duckburg to put him through his darkest hour. When the family turns the tide and free Scrooge, Magica vows to return.
