' To answer the first question, ' Scrooge explained as he showed them a very professional powerpoint titled ' The Gumption Bandwagon BTS tour '. ' We DO NOT have VR effects, digital animation or anything like that. Everything was shot on location, film by film, paint by paint. It was EXHAUSTING to even make a.movie back when we were young! '

' We actually shoot the whole thing in Texas, ' Goldie sighed. ' YES, it was the darn hottest place in the United States. The first day of shooting, it was so hot I cant even breathe. I was wearing those big skirts that I HATED, no, LOATHED. On top of that, any idiot can smell Clark Goose's infamous breath. '

' WHAT DID HE SMELL LIKE?' everyone else asked eagerly.

' Rotten cheese, burnt cigars and pig food all rolled together, ' was all Scrooge and Goldie responded.

Reactions of utter disgust were evident across the room. The kids nearly choked on their popcorn. Daisy and Della screamed. ' THAT'S DISGUSTING!'. Donald coughed. Fethry held his nose. Gladstone grimaced and Mrs. Beakley nearly puked.

' Utterly disgusting, ' Mrs Beakley cringed.

' I thought I nearly died every time I had to some kiss scene with that Goose dude, ' Goldie sighed. ' Believe me, Scrooge hates it just as much as I do. I dont see why modern fans of vintage movies think that kissing Clark Goose on screen is every girl's dream. Its every girl's worst nightmare. '

' That is why I always advise the boys to always brush their teeth twice a day so they wont get smelly mouths or else they cant kiss girls in the future!' Donald said solemnly.

Everyone else applauded Donald's wise words. ' You totally aced parenting, Donald, ' Della sniffled a tear and high fived her twin brother.

' How do you even do all the stunts?' Huey asked, growing increasingly fascinated. ' Did you have stuntmen or something?'

' NO!!' Scrooge and Goldie exclaimed.

' Movies back at that time had actors breaking every bone in their bodies, especially with movies like these, ' Mrs Beakley explained.

' Did any of you go to the hospital?' Webby asked, concerned about her honorary great aunt.

' If we even requested to go to some hospital our ass was fired. ' Goldie sighed and face palmed.

' Holy cow.....' the triplets whispered in an awed chorus.

' There was no computers, no cell phones, NONE OF THAT!' Scrooge announced with aplomb ' We had newspapers and radios. '

' And people all over the world still watch it?' the kids choruses with even more excitement.

' Of course!' Goldie laughed. ' Subtitles were already invented by the time we started filming!'

' THATS AMAZING!' the kids screamed and everyone applauded.

' By the way, ' Webby asked ' How come you are in this movie, Unca Scrooge?'

' Long story, ' Scrooge cleared his throat. ' During the first stages of filming, there was this wimp named Leslie Wilkes who was casted. But he said some really insulting things on the set, and he even stole some expensive props. So he got fired. '

Everyone was silent, waiting for Scrooge to continue.

' I was there at that time, ' Scrooge continued. ' See, I made my first billion already, and the McDuck Weapon Enterprises was booming. I sponsored the production company - it was Universal Studios by the way - in weapon props and weapon training. And then Goldie and Clark were shooting a kiss scene. '

' Scroogey was so jealous, ' Goldie continued with a smirk on her face ' That he pounced upon Clark Goose, and the two fought like wild animals, in front of the camera! Of course, Clark ended up having parts of his costume scratched and torn. But Mr DeMille loved the scene so much, he even offered Scrooge the villain part! And some parts of the script were changed. And yeah, that's how Scrooge got cast. '

' OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!' everyone else ( save Mrs. Beakley ) hooted and chanted.

' I KNEW IT!' Fethry shouted. 'I KNEW THAT UNCA SCROOGE WOULD PICK A BRAWL WITH CLARK GOOSE!'

' NO ONE PICKS A FIGHT LIKE HE!' Gladstone announced melodramatically.

' HE AINT NOTHING BUT A HOUNDOG!' Donald sang. Everyone else ( save Daisy ) started barking in chorus.

' CRYING ALL THE TIME!' Daisy sang as loudly as he could.

' HE AINT NOTHING BUT A HOUND DOG!' Donald and Daisy choruses, with Fethry, Gladstone and Della joined. ' SPYING ALL THE TIME!'

' WOULD YOU PLEASE LET ME FINISH!' Scrooge roared. 'YOU KIDS CAN SING LATER!'

' How did you nail the British accent, Mr. Scrooge?' Beakely asked.

' We had this phonic exercise to do that, ' Goldie answered. Winking at Scrooge, Scrooge said. ' Donald! Della! Fethry! Gladstone! Remember the Moses Suppose you kids have to sing?'

' The tongue twister that got me into Columbia?' Gladstone smirked. ' Duh! I still remember!'

Daisy watched as the 4 grown ducks ( or in Gladstone's case, goose ) stood up, took a deep breath and began the tongue twister.

' Moses supposes his toes are Roses. ' Donald began as fast as he could.

' But Moses supposes his roses could be!' Della added with a big grin on his face.

' Moses supposes his toes are Rose's. ' Gladstone shut his eyes and recited.

' But Moses supposes ERRONEOUSLY!' Fethry shouted at the last word.

' FETHRY!' Scrooge roared as everyone rolled on the floor laughing. Even Goldie collasped on the couch and laughed hysterically. ' YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO SHOUT THE LAST WORD!'

' BUT UNCA SCROOGE!' Fethry complained ' I WAS JUST TRYNA ADD A LITTLE FUN!'

' Can we sing the song version?' Huey asked.

The grown ups all nodded and looked at the 4 kids.

Daisy watched in amazement ad the kids led the first verse, then Donald, Della, Fethry, Gladstone joined in. Then Beakley, and then Daisy, and then finally Scrooge and Goldie. Soon, Donald was playing the song through his bluetooth and started singing and dancing along to ' Mosed Supposes'.
