We see the air plane flying in the night sky over the clouds. We see it flying over China as the lights of the city shine bright. Then we go inside the plane as Scrooge opens an old scroll with some pictures on it as F/N stands right next to him.

Scrooge: The Temple of the Golden Cricket.

F/N: (shows Scrooge and F/N along with Huey, Dewey, and Webby) According to legend, every 50 years, at sundown, the golden cricket emerges singing it's ethereal song.

Scrooge: That's right, F/N. Some say the song holds the answer to life's greatest mysteries. (Shows Louie looking through a window) How did we get here?

F/N: What's our purpose in the universe?

Louie: Wait, is that a neon hot dog?!

The kids run over to the same window.

Huey: Wow!

Dewey: So cool!

Webby: I'm hungry!

We see the plane flying over a building with a neon hot dog on top of it.

Scrooge: Yes, yes, the city of Macaw is very exciting to look at, but you'll only find empty distractions there.

Louie: I can't believe Uncle Gladstone is here!

F/N: (unenthusiastic) Yeah, neither can I... (So stand right next to Donald)

Huey: He's so charming.

Dewey: And funny.

Louie: He's, like, the luckiest guy in the world. Uh, Uncle Donald, Dad, you two must've had the best time growing up with him.

We see a flash back of Donald as a kid next to Gladstone as a kid as Gladstone turns to see money next to him.

Gladstone: Hey, 20 dollars.

Gladstone picks up the 20 as a bus past by them, splashing water on Donald. Then we see Donald in a kitchen grown up looking extremely tired as F/N before he became a cyborg walks in.

F/N: Morning, Donald.

Donald: Hey...

Donald pours some cereal into his bowl only for it to come out all stuck together.

F/N: Yeash! And I just bought that yesterday.

Then we see Gladstone grab the box.

Gladstone: Morning, D-money, morning F/I(first initial)-Tech.

F/N: Uh, Gladstone? That box is em-

Before F/N could finish his sentence, 20 dollars fell out of the box and into his bowl.

Gladstone: Hey, 20 dollars.

F/N: Okay... Who's up for pancakes?

Then we see Donald, F/N as a cyborg, and Gladstone as they see 20 dollars on the ground.

Gladstone: Hey, 20-

Donald: Dibs!

Donald goes to pick up the 20 dollars as a beagle boy runs out from a bank with some money bags. He trips over Donald as Gladstone puts his foot on the Beagle Boy. We see Gladstone and F/N on the cover of a newspaper saying "Good Samaritan Foils Crime Spree Along With The Tech Genius Adventure" Then we a picture of Donald on the newspaper holding 20 dollars saying "Donald Duck Questioned in Crime Spree. Bail posted at twenty dollars."

Then we go back to the present.

Donald: He's the worst. Just the worst.

F/N: Yeah, I'm not a big fan of him either.
