you bad boys # Darkwing Duck! (siren wailing) Look, my little friend, my new power-transfer generator.
Whoop, what's that you say? You'd like to see it work? Just watch.
This generator will enable me to carry huge loads of power for days without recharging! We seem to be experiencing some technical difficulties.
Ah, this is a snap.
Just a loose conn Yaah! I'm feeling a little thirsty.
Ooh! Gotta get me a surge protector.
Ooh! (electricity crackling) Hey, how ya doin', big guy? It's alive! I brought you to life! Me, Megavolt! My creation! I've discovered real power! Now I can use it to control the world! Hey, get a life! Control yourself here.
Somebody might be watching.
(dog howling) (poorly played rock music) # Ah, uh, ah, ah, uh You guys are such wimps! If I played the guitar we'd be much louder.
But, Tank, you've got just what it takes to be a drummer.
Yeah, a set a drums.
Don't you see, Tank? You were born to beat on things.
Yeah, OK.
But I still say we should be louder.
OK, then, real loud this time.
A one, two, three, four! (# rock) (electric guitar twangs) Hi, Dad.
I didn't hear you come in.
No, really? Gee, I heard you.
I'll bet the whole city heard you! Great! That's just what we want.
Wide exposure.
I thought we wanted artistic fulfillment.
I wanna go on tour and trash hotel rooms! But you kids don't know the first thing about music.
A mere technicality, Dad.
We're gonna be video stars.
Before you know it, we'll be lip-syncing to our big hit.
Ah, that's great, Gos.
Till then, would you do Daddy one little favor? You name it.
Turn it down! So, uh, now that I'm alive and everything here, what'll I do? Just chill out.
(laughs) (electric guitar twangs) OK, now you try.
(strums) No! Get up higher, then drop down on your knees.
Um, what about my guitar, sir? I don't know how to play.
Don't sweat it, man.
We'll get to the guitar part later.
It was my electrical genius that brought you to life.
Now watch me repeat my greatest experiment.
Did that hurt? (teeth rattle) (groans) W-w-w-w-what's that? Oh, it's like, the guy next door's an electrician or something, OK.
Ready? Assume the position.
(Cockney accent) Ugh, blimey! (growls) Whoa-ho-ho! Primo power chord, man.
You got, like, perfecto picks.
Wow! Music is dangerous! (like Johnny Carson) Hello, friends! And I'm so glad to be here today.
- I've done it again, you're alive! - Alive and feeling wonderful! And let me say right now that I've got such a warm feeling about you! What do you mean you can't find your guitar? Well, after I blew the speaker out at my lesson, I looked around for my guitar and it was just gone.
So we're talking burglary.
Now think, who'd wanna take your guitar? It was probably a music lover.
(chuckles) Now this duck craves some crime-fighting confrontation.
Gee, if you're really bored, DW, you might try starting a button collection like mine! It's pretty darn exciting.
- Hey, Dad! Have I got a case for you! - A case? Now you're talking! Which archvillain is it this time? Steelbeak? Tuskerninni? Let me at him! This is really important, Dad.
Honker's guitar is missing.
Aw, nuts! A guitar? You're talking about Honker's guitar? - That's nothing! - Nothing?! You call our missing out on stardom and riches nothing? Gosalyn, Gosalyn, Gosalyn.
Can't you see I'm busy? Call me if you hear about a real problem, not this silly kid stuff.
But, but, but Hey, you don't want us to find that guitar.
What? A music lover like moi? Perish the thought.
Come on, LP.
Maybe we'll get lucky and find some evil-doers.
Yeah, I'm right behind you, DW.
(clanking) (Carson) Ho-ho! Nice work, hunk.
Just a few more charges and my appliance gang will be complete.
Don't worry, with this new machine, your gang will be unstoppable.
This thing? I'm gonna terrify the city with a permanent wave? (like game-show host) Not that, this! It's the high-tech all-in-one slicing-dicing power tool to end them all! Here we go! One little magic touch and I'll be in big-time business.
Yaah! (like Walter Cronkite) In retrospect, I don't think that's precisely the effect we were looking for.
This thing's got a defective circuit breaker.
Why do I have all the luck? (female) Go figure.
That monster gets fried and I make it through.
We were connected to the same socket.
Why don't you sit down, hon.
Looks like you could use some rest.
(Darkwing) The store is closed, sparky! Oh, Darkwing Duck! Don't you ever knock? Not fair.
Not now.
Hey, what did you expect? You knocked the power out for blocks.
- Somebody do something! - Who said that? Who else is here? Hey! Hey, who did that? - I demand you show yourself! - (normal voice) Hey, over here.
Oh, it's only the television Run! Let me out! Let me out! Tease me, will ya? Come on, LP, we can't let that power-hungry maniac get away! Ooh, I hate that spark-arrester duck.
He ruins everything.
Cheer up, mate.
It's party time.
Who are you? How did you get here? I just followed the power surge, mate.
This is where it's coming from, isn't it? - (imitates Desi Arnaz) Honey, we're home! - You've come back! (imitates Johnny Carson) Hold it.
I feel an important message coming on! And.
St.
Canard Power Company officials say their new super-powerful generator is now finished and oozing power.
From the Power Company.
this is Tom Lockjaw reporting.
That's it! With that generator, we can bring more appliances to life.
Then St.
Canard will be totally ours.
(electricity sizzling) That must be the new generator.
Surprise! It's a trap, or have you figured that out, bright boy? Oh, not again! Get him! Even a nutcase like you can't believe that a refrigerator is gonna save you.
Hey, you making fun of me? It's time to do some slipping and sliding.
Like a rolling stone! I'm glad you're awake.
You know, I've got a new recipe I've been dying to try.
Ooh! I just love cooking shows! Today, well be making sizzling duck.
I like mine burnt to a crisp.
(laughing) Come, my appliance associates.
(laughing) Darkwing Duck is one dead dynamo.
- Aah! - Now take it easy, LP.
If we swing ourselves perfectly, the next spark can sever the rope, and we can drop safely to one side.
Another minute and we'll be toast.
OK, LP, we'll swing a quarter-turn to the left on three.
Three! Was I supposed to swing to my left or your left, DW? Now he gets down to logistics.
(coughs) From up here we should be able to see right in the window of that music room.
Sounds like we're on the right track.
(electricity crackling) Hey! Those are the same kind of flashes I saw during my lesson.
What are you trying to do, fry yourself? Nah, I'm looking for a place to plug in.
I've got a powerful urge to do some jamming.
Someone's coming! Keen gear! Some kind of mad scientist must live here.
Yeah, and I'll bet he doesn't like little kids.
Look, it's your guitar, Honk.
I knew it! Well, if whoever took it wants it so bad, let him keep it.
Come on, Honk.
It's your guitar! We've got to find Megavolt, LP, and his talking appliances.
Who knows what devastating plan his short-circuited mind is working up.
I don't know.
Maybe he's collected all the lost appliances in town.
Like Honker's guitar.
- What did you say? - Honker's guitar, DW.
You know, the one that Gosalyn's looking for.
Let me see, Gos was trying to tell me about Honker's guitar lesson.
He said he blew everything out.
The power surge must have come from Megavolt.
- Hey, that was Honker's guitar we saw! - And now Gosalyn's out trying to find it.
Oh, I should have listened to her, LP.
Come on, we've gotta find that thing before Gosalyn does.
Oh! Let's just get my guitar and go! Don't worry so much, Honk.
Check out all this neat stuff.
Easy on the neck, eh? You're choking me! - Thanks, ducks.
- (both) Aah! (imitates Jack Nicholson) And just where do you think you're going? That guitar belongs to Honker.
(like Pee-wee Herman) Kids, ha-ha, I love them! My biggest audience! (like Jack Nicholson) But we have to make certain y'all don't leave now, don't we, little viewers? Oh, let's give you a final flap.
What a doll! - Yuck! - Wow, Gosalyn, what a radical hairdo.
Yes.
It just needs a little touching up.
- Eh, when's the boss coming back? - Why do you need a boss? Just what are you guys getting out of this deal, huh? What do you mean? You guys should make decisions for yourselves.
- If you want to let us go, let us go.
- (William Buckley) She's got a point.
We're not going to have the temerity to let them go, of course, but she does have a point.
(pounding on door) Open up! I found the perfect place for our first robbery.
- That's fabulous, mate.
- But before you tell us about it, why don't you just relax.
(guitar) Have a cold drink.
Hey, hey! Whoa! Good work, guys.
Now we can turn him over to the police.
Oh, now, I wouldn't say that, love.
(Nicholson) We're gonna plug Megavolt here in to the power supply of St.
Canard.
Yeah, we'll bring all the appliances of the city to life and take over! Ha-ha-ha.
Then people could do stuff for us! But-but This was all your idea, so you and your little friend here can join us in our glorious revolution! Ho-ho! - And what if we don't want to? - Then you can fry, lovey.
(grunting) Know what? I envy you, mates.
What an awesome surge of power you'll feel.
(laughs) You can't do this! I gave you life! That's why you're plugged into the power supply.
You're gonna bring life to all the appliances in St.
Canard.
You're insane! (laughs) Check who's talking! Ha-ha-ha! I am the terror that flaps in the night.
I am the repair man who tells you your warranty has run out.
I am Darkwing Duck! Too late, man.
From now on it's an all-star jam every night! (electricity buzzes loudly) (imitates Buckley) The revolution's begun.
Appliances all over town are coming to life.
- Rising up against their owners.
- Gee, I don't hear anything.
(imitates Carson) You don't have to believe me, pond breath.
Just listen to the experts.
And this just in.
We are receiving several reports of household appliances turning against their owners.
(laughs) Is that the craziest thing you've ever heard? (buzzing) Hey! Help! Not so much off the top! (like Walter Cronkite) And that's the way it is.
(Nicholson) Get it? Oh, no! Someone unplug this! (Megavolt screams) Now let's disconnect these devious devices.
(shrill buzzing) I hate to see anyone get in the water.
You're soaking in it.
Whoa! Feeling better, hon? - Power.
I need recharging.
- Sure thing.
Whoa! This is a bit like cricket, actually.
Whoa! (laughing) (laughing) That's enough.
I control the power here.
And I'm shutting this party down! Uh-oh.
(screaming) They're killing us, man! No.
Hey! Waah! That's too hot! - Shut it off! - Yeah, yeah, but how? Too bad you don't have an umbrella, Meganut, 'cause it looks like rain.
Aah! No, not water! Yeah, you know, this reminds me, LP, gotta pay my electric bill.
We did it! Gos, next time, I promise I'll pay closer attention to your clues.
Whoa, just in time for a rerun of Pelican's Island! And let this be a lesson to you, Megajerk.
Power corrupts.
Keen gear.
This is the one where Pelican gets hit on the head with a coconut.
And dreams that a submarine rescues the gang, and then accidentally blows up the island with a nuclear torpedo.
All right, Honkster.
Now this is what I call real entertainment.
Oh, yeah.
Everything is definitely back to abnormal.
