Louie and Dewey both passed out. A few minutes later, Donald walked in. "They can bother going on adventures but they never manage to go to bed at night." Donald sighs. He lifts the boys to their beds and leaves, closing the door behind him.

An hour later, Louie wakes up. He looks around and shrugs his shoulders. Nothing out of the usual. He thought he saw a boy in red but it must've been his imagination. He walks out of the room to find his brother Dewey. "Hey Dew. Do you know if Scrooge bought more Pep?" Dewey, who was playing darts with Webby, said "I don't know. Have you seen Webby?" Louie shrugged his shoulders again. Just then, Webby jumped down from the ceiling and shot Dewey in the head. "HAH! GOT YA!" Webby shouted. Triumphant, she fist pumped the air. Louie laughed and said "I'm gonna go watch TV." He was about to leave when he saw the same boy in red running down the hall with a dart gun. Confused, Louie followed him. Louie came to an abrupt stop when the boy turned around and yelled "The Foyer A is the safe zone! The foyer A is the safe zone!" And disappeared. Louie had no idea what was going on. He decided to ignore it. He lived with his uncle, his house was probably haunted.

Louie walked into the kitchen and asked "Scrooge do we have any more Pep?" Scrooge looked up from the newspaper and said, "I don't know. Look in the gar-age." Louie sighed and walked to the 'GARAGE.' He opened the door and looked around. He walked over to where Pixu, the gold hunting dragon was. But right there, Louie couldn't believe his eyes. He saw the same boy in red examining where the statue was. Louie walked up to the boy. "Hey, are you a ghost?" Louie asked. The boy ignored him. Then he vanished. Louie was scared now. He found the Pep and left to go to his room.

'Who is that kid? Maybe he is harmless. But I should check with Webby.' Louie thought to himself.  'Nah, it's fine. He'll probably go away on his own.' Louie reaches his room to find the same boy on the spare bed. The boy seems to be reading something that says 'Junior Woodchuck Guidebook.' "Huh. Must be a nerd ghost." Never the less, Louie goes past the ghost and plops down on his bed. Louie looks over at the boy, who is looking at him. Louie freaks out and falls off the bed. Louie hears the words. "I am so proud to be your older brother. You guys annoy me sometimes but, I'll always love you, Dewey and Louie." Louie watches as the boy disappears. Louie had no idea what was going on. Then, an idea came in his head. If this boy was his brother... Than Louie would have posted a picture of him! Louie hops onto his InstaQuack. He aggressively scrolls down. He stops when he sees the color Red. He takes a deep breath and taps the picture. It's a picture of him, Dewey and the boy sleeping. The caption says #Donaldonthephone. "Uncle Donald nooo..." Louie whispers. But mostly he is shocked to see the boy.

Louie runs out of the room to find Dewey. "Dewey! Dewey! Look at this!" The memories came flooding back. Hubert McDuck, the oldest triplet by three seconds, the car, the spell. Everything. Louie stopped. The spell. Where's Huey?! He knew that the spell didn't work. He knew who could explain why it didn't work. Louie ran out the doors of the mansion but stopped dead in his tracks.

It was Huey. But in ghost form. "Louie. I love you. But don't worry about me. You can't bring me back." Hearing these words, Louie started crying. Huey walked up to his brother and ruffled his hair. "Remind Dewey who I am. He too has forgotten. That spell? It just got rid of my body." Louie looked at his brother and hugged him. Huey, hugged back. He allowed himself to be physical for a minute. "Why did you jump in front of the car?" Louie sobbed. "Because, I had to save my brother." Tht only made him sob more. Huey pulled out of the hug. They grasped hands. "Oh, and tell Uncle Donald I got my last Juinor Woodchuck Merit Badge." Huey said. "I earned it for living a happy life." Huey said before fading into thin air. Louie walked back inside.

"Uncle Donald?" Louie asked. Donald turned to his nephew. "Yes, Louie?" Louie felt uncomfortable but his brothers last wish was for Louie to say this to his Uncle. "Huey got his last Junior Woodchuck merit badge." Donald had a big smile. "Oh, that's great! What's it for? I thought he had them all." Louie took a deep breath. "He earned it for living a happy life..." Donald soon realized what that meant. He frowned. "I see." That was the last thing he said for the rest of the day.

"Dewey? Dewey? Dewey, are in our room?" Louie yells. He walks into the room. "Hey Lou. I'm just contemplating why we have a third bed here." Dewey said. Louie takes a deep breath again. "I think I have your answer." Dewey turns to his brother. "Go for it." Louie pulls up the picture of the boys sleeping and shows Dewey. Dewey's eyes widened. "Hey! I've seen that kid before! He's been around the mansion. I think his name was Hub... Hay... Hue- HUEY!" Dewey looks at Louie and sees that he's crying. "That's our brother."
