DuckTales (2017–…): Season 3, Episode 7 - The Rumble for Ragnarok! - full transcript

Dewey must embrace his inner heel to beat the beloved Viking wrestling champ Jormungandr in a battle royale for the fate of the Earth.

Every ten years,
Jormungandr,

the great snake
that encircles the earth,

releases his tail and
threatens to destroy the planet.

I have numerous
science‐based questions.

Unless the chosen
"Champion of Earth"

can defeat him and his barbarian
minions in combat.

I am that champion.

- Ooh!
- One day

I'll have
to pass the torch

to the next
Champion of Earth.

Which of you will it be?



Webby? Huey? Louie?

Webby?

You're saving my name
for last, right?

For dramatic effect?

Yes. That.

The truth is, none of you
are ready to fight just yet.

I'm only bringing you along
to prepare you for the future.

Why are you trusting us
with that

and not Donald and Mom?

Because you are
the new generation.

Also, I don't trust
Donald and Della

to cooperate on a jigsaw puzzle,

much less the fate
of the universe.

Gird yourselves
for the most treacherous,



gritty, solemn fight
we have ever faced.

Launchpad,
fly into that rainbow.

Ooh. Pretty.

Is that a barbarian

with a battle-ax?
They found a way

They found a way
to make rainbows better!

Welcome to Valhalla.

All right,
you saturnine snake,

let's do this.

This is the best day.

Season 03 Episode 07
Episode Title: "The Rumble for Ragnarok!"

So let me get this straight,

you're going to fight a snake

that's 1000 times
bigger than you?

Don't be silly.

He transmogrifies
into a snake-man-beast first.

Yeah. Sure. Of course.

What's that
rhythmic chanting?

A fierce Norse
incantation

meant to summon
the beast.

Hey, check it out.

"Jormungandr vs. Scrooge"
T-shirts.

- Hmm.
- Merchandising.

Guess Louie knows
what Louie's doing today.

The ancestral
Norse fighting pit.

Whoa! It's wrestling!

This is awesome!

This is awesome.

So these guys just copied
professional wrestling?

No, this tournament is as old
as the earth itself.

Wrestling copied
all this stuff from them.

A flashy fight
with flamboyant costumes

where you get cheered
by adoring fans?

Oh, I am Deweying it!
What could go wrong?

You could be pummeled
senseless

under a two-ton terror,

every bone broken

while the world literally
cracks in two.

And they will
love me for it.

Introducing
the chairman of the V. W. E.,

our beloved underdog,

a man-snake of the people,

Mr. Jormungandr!

- We love you!
- You're the best!

Thank you, thank you.

I can't tell you
how honored I am

to be here fighting for you,

the fallen warriors
of Valhalla.

You all died gloriously
in battle,

and now everyone on Earth will
have the chance to join you,

here, once we defeat
Team Earth.

This is Rumble
for Ragnarok 100!

Whoo-hoo!

As always,
this will be

a best-of-three
tournament.

Our greatest fighters
will face off

against the gilded greed-monger,

the hated hoarder,

the infamous Millionaire Miser.

Wait, who's he talking about?

Wish me luck,
laddies.

All right, pay up.

Look at that!

The Miser is collecting
back taxes.

Guys, I'm starting
to think that

Scrooge isn't
the good guy here.

Yeah, Jormungandr is
the baby-faced people's champ

that everyone loves.

Scrooge is playing the role
of villainous heel.

I watch a lot of wrestling
while I fly.

- Wait, "while"?
- That's ridiculous.

Uncle Scrooge is the greatest
hero of all time.

Huh, I guess not everyone
thinks so.

Oops.

Dibs on announcing!

He's going to need my help.
Good thing I have

my Junior Woodchucks
Sports Commentary Badge.

Greetings, sports fans.

Today's spirited match
is shaping up

to be an enthusiastic...

Are you ready
to Ragna-rock!

This is the first
of three matches.

The first to pin
their opponent wins.

Up first,
representing Team Valhalla,

we have the Hammer
from Kraghammer,

The legendary Strongbeard!

Wow, folks.

It seems anyone
that possesses

one of Strongbeard's hairs

becomes impossibly strong.

Wait, how did you
know that?

Just calling it
like I sees it.

Wrestling!

And here we go.

Fear the beard!

You cannot let them
talk to you this way.

- You're the hero.
- Lad, it's all right.

What matters is that I'm doing
the right thing.

Give me a handout.

I'm the richest duck
in the world, and you're not.

- Huh?
- And here we see

the use of a curious
technique.

An acupuncture pressure point,
perhaps,

or some kind of sedative
neck massage?

Uh-oh. The Miser's got
Strongbeard in an unbreakable

Penny Pincher hold.

What's he going to do?

And the Miser
fell for a beard fake!

Aah!

Disqualified for illegal
beard magic.

I am so confused.

Uh-oh, looks like the Miser
absorbed some beard energy.

Whoo!

Wow.

Millionaire Miser with
the incredible comeback win.

Scores a point for Team Earth.

You're cheering
the wrong guy.

Scrooge has saved the world
countless times,

and your guy is the minion
of a giant dragon man.

Dewey, look out!

Ugh! Oh, my blasted back.

Sorry.

It's all right, lad.
We got the first win.

But it looks like you kids
are going to have to take over

sooner than I thought.

Okay, Jormungandr has agreed

to let a tag team
take my place.

He is such a good guy.

Ugh!

Which of you two
will fight for me?

Oh! Oh! Oh! Me! Me!

Obviously Webby.

Huey doesn't understand
wrestling at all,

and I don't know
where Louie is.

He's probably scared
and devastated

from seeing you get hurt.

Get your "Scrooge gets
hit with a chair" T-shirts here.

Relive Chairmageddon
as a shirt.

Oh! Oh! Oh! Oh!

Well, I guess Webby

will have to fight
alone then.

But I'm ready for this.

Come now, lad.

They hate us out there.

I'm not sure
you can handle this.

You're right.
I can't handle this.

But Champ Popular can.

My impossible-to-hate
hero persona,

guaranteed to turn "Boo"
into "Whoo, Dewey, we love you!"

Okay, you're still unsure.

But wait till you see
my special touch.

Get it? Champ Pop-ular?

This will definitely
win them over.

Yes, lad. Great.

Oh, I believe in you.

Do all the fighting
and make sure he doesn't die.

On it.

Okay, you've got this.

Smile. Be charming.
Win them over.

And win the match,
save the world.

Blah, blah, blah...

Suplex, duplex,
sleeper hold.

Okay, I think I've finally got
a hold of this wrestling thing.

Awesome. Just in time
for the tag-team round.

Wait, they're playing tag now?
Man!

Introducing Valhalla's new
favorite hero,

the irresistible,

the simply dapper,

the impossibly cool,

Champ Popular!

- Ha-ha!
- Ah!

He's throwing lollipops
because he thinks we're suckers!

No! They're delicious!

Stop the Pop!

Stop the Pop!

Stop the Pop!

Get your "Stop the Pop"
shirts right here.

How did you know what character
I'd come up with

and already make T-shirts
against him?

I've known you
my whole life.

I kind of knew
how this would play out.

Champ Popular? Ha!

More like Champ Unpopular.

This crowd is really
giving it to him.

Yeah, more like,
Champ Population zero friends...

in Friendtown.

Someone call
the census bureau.

Oh!

We hate you now!

Next up, Champ's tag-team
partner, the Pink Predator.

The Marauder of McDuck Manor.

Hi, I'm Webby.

This'll be a tough match, kids.
Let's talk strategy.

And now, from Niffleheim,

weighing in at a combined
10,000 shrieking undead souls...

Hecka and Fenrir.

Oh, come on,
this is what you like?

A creepy goth
and her pet dog?

Hecka, yeah! Hecka, yeah!

Are you folks ready
for a game of tag grappling?

Some wham-bam-slams?

- I don't know!
- Whoo!

With all those head pops,

it looks like Champ Popular
is more like Champ Popcorn.

He'd "butter" do something fast.

You're the worst!

You're the worst!
You're the worst!

You know his thing is lollipops,
not corn, right?

But I have all these
corn puns.

You don't have to try
to make it sound great.

It already is.

Ah!

Don't let the crowd
get to you lad.

Embrace the boos.

Be the bad guy.

No, I can win them over.

I can make them love me.

Ah! Tag Webby!
Tag Webby!

Leave Champ alone.

Oh, is that all you got?

I thought you were supposed
to be great warriors.

Get the Hecka out of here!

Attagirl.
Embrace your inner heel.

I don't know her.

What? That's not fair.
He didn't tag in.

That's cheating.

Cheaters! Cheaters!

Now you say it.

Oh, you're so
dangerous and cute.

I just want to pet
your little belly.

Oh, that's good.

The crowd likes
the dog-lover angle.

- Keep going.
- No, Webby. It's a trap.

Uh-oh.

A classic "who's a good boy?"
gambit.

I don't understand
anything,

and nothing I say
makes any sense.

Wait, am I the Launchpad here?

That's it. I know what I have
to do to win...

- Great.
- ...them over.

No!

No one loves dogs
more than Champ Popular.

Who's a good boy?

Does the good boy
want a snackie-poo?

See? He likes it?

What are you doing?
You can't give candy to a dog.

What are you? A dummy?

Uh...

Hyah! Hyah!

Pin him!

Whoa, back from the dead,

for the queen of the dead.

Webby takes out Fenrir

and sets up Champ Popular
for the pin.

Stop the Pop!

Stop the Pop!
Stop the Pop!

Hey, can you wear this
in the ring?

It'll really up my sales.

You're the worst!

- You'll never be a hero.
- No, please. I...

Don't listen, lad. Look out!

Oh, Team Ragnarok
gets the comeback win.

Looks like they've got
the momentum now.

But don't worry, Team Earth,
it's not the end of the world...

Ah!

Yet!

Hey, hey, hey.
Come on.

Let's take it easy
on the poor guy.

It's not his fault
he's a puny mortal

with a toxic personality.

So it looks like Team Earth
made it to the final round.

Which means you all get
what you've been waiting for.

The main event!

I know you're all disappointed

about how lackluster
Earth has been this year,

so I have a special treat
for all adoring fans.

I challenge Earth
to a battle royale!

- He wants to fight a king?
- No.

It means he's taking on
all of Team Earth!

If you get knocked out
of the ring,

you stay out, folks.

And the first to get a pin,
wins.

Challenge accepted,
you showboating basilisk.

My family is ready
to take whatever you've got.

Right, guy...

I will be right back.

Stall.

Listen up, Miser,
I'm just a humble,

noble snake-man
of the people

who's fed up with your ruthless
reign of greed.

Excuse me,
Mr. Jormungandr.

Big fan.

If you would like a fight,

allow me to introduce you
to this fist.

Her name is Lady Haymaker.

And, of course, also,
her country cousin,

the Duchess of Whaling.

I'm sorry, Uncle Scrooge.
I just... I can't do it.

I know, lad.
It's okay.

No, I can't, and...
Wait, it's okay?

Isn't this the part
where you tell me,

"Of course you can, lad.
I believe in you."

Doing the right thing
is not always easy or popular.

Not everyone is cut out
to be the Champion of the Earth.

- But what about the fight?
- I called in backup

as soon as you had
to take over.

I mean, it is the fate
of the Earth.

Well, that made me feel
even worse.

And lastly, I'll use
the dust of your bones

as sweetener in my tea.

Thank you for your time.

Too far!

We warriors of Valhalla

aren't scared of you.

It's not me who
you should be scared of.

Ha!

What a surprise, folks.

Te Millionaire Miser's Maid.

Shield Maiden.

The only thing I'm going
to clean today is your clock.

Shouldn't you be
announcing the fight?

I can't do this.

I thought I was smart enough
to handle anything

this adventure had
to throw at me,

but I'm just embarrassing
myself.

Yeah, me too.

I know we're supposed

to take over for Scrooge
one day,

but do you ever wonder if
maybe we're not cut out for it?

The world is about to end!
We need to do something!

I can't do it.
They hate me.

And I don't understand
wrestling.

What?
Just roll with it.

You don't have to understand
something to love it.

Say literally the first thing
that comes to mind.

Be LP.

Be Launchpad?

And you. I've known you
my whole life.

I know how this plays out.
You're a hero.

So go save the world.

Let's do this.

I don't know.

Let's Dewey this?

I'm in.

Hyah!

Webbigail!

Oh, Webby and
Mrs. Beakley have been eliminated.

I'll shed your skin for you...

Ah!

Whoa. In a completely
unexpected twist,

the announcer was Captain Crash
this whole time.

What's Jormungandr
going to do now?

Oh, he did that.
That was smart.

Jormungandr!

Jormungandr!

I guess you forgot

about the Pop
that never stops,

no matter how hard it is.

Your catchphrases are forced.

That's just how I Dewey it.

Wow, and in a stunning
turn of events,

Champ Popular is back
to bite the snake that bit him.

They hate you.
You should give up.

I don't care.
But you do.

Pfft, I don't care at all.
Why should I?

I'm the most popular hero in all
the land and for all time!

The Pop never stops.

You see how easy
this is for me?

I don't even
have to use my hands.

Ooh, looks like Jormungandr's
losing the crowd.

This is not the Norse way.

What are you doing?
Cheer me.

I am your hero.

Young one.

Oh, my!

Dewey's absorbed
that beard energy.

All I can say is,
this is...

Awesome.

Until next time,
Champ Popular.

A true people's hero.

You showed real grit
in there, lad.

I'm proud of you.

Thanks, Uncle Scrooge.

But why are you whispering?

So I can get close
and do this!

What's this?
The Millionaire Miser

has turned
on his own nephew.

He's stolen the belt.
What a heel!

Ha-ha!
That's right.

Unless Champ Popular
thinks he can stop me.
