Scenes with Lena Sabrewing 23
[yawns] Boy, this sure has been a friend-aversery thingy. You know who my best friend is?
Sleep. Come on, even Beakley fell asleep, I think?
[Beakley is snoring with her eyes open]
It's a spy thing. And yeah, it might be sleepy time.
LenaSleep? N-No way! It's only 4:00 A.M.! That's so early!
Judging from your sunken eyes, elevated heart rate and irritability--
Lena
Your irritability!
I'd say you're suffering from a serious lack of sleep.
Lena
Uh, yeah! Because I've been planning so many exciting activities for this party! I'll be surprised if we ever sleep again. [yawns, then chuckles] I'm gonna go splash some cold water in my face so we can party even harder! Ha-ha! [runs off to the bathroom]
KKids
[all exhausted] Yay.
[The kids walk into the locker and out through the doggy door, entering Louie's dream, where he's lying on the sofa as a lazy cat]
This is your dream, to be even lazier?
I nap all day, I never have to worry about anything, I'm shamelessly pampered. [knocks down Pep soda cans Dream Beakley sets on the armrest with his paw] Meow. Everyone pat my head. [purring as Dewey, Webby and Violet all pet him]
[groans in annoyance] Good kitty. [Louie bites his hand] Ow!
Never mind, I don't want that anymore. [falls asleep]
You're asleep?! We're in a dream! How are you sleep-sleeping?!
Lena
[emerges from the doggy door in the form of a wolf] I'm don't think I'm doing this right.
[Cat Louie jumps on the sofa and hisses in fright]
[The Duck nephews, Webby, and Violet enter Magica's castle and confront "Magica", who's actually Lena, being turned into a Magica doppelgänger]
Magica! What did you do with Lena?!
Lena
[speaking in Magica's voice] No, no, I am Lena! I just look like Magica!
Lena
Ugh, why does everything I say sound sarcastic?
Because you're a monster!
Lena
No! No! I'm not… a monster! [sprouts bat wings and turns into a bat creature]
Lena
Webby, help! [shoots out a fireball]
[noticing the friendship bracelet on Lena's arm] Lena? I'm sorry. I didn't see. Of course, it's you. Is this what's been bothering you? That you might become Magica?
Lena
[in her normal voice] I'm just… so tired of fighting it. I am her.
No, you're not. We were trying to destroy you, and you still saved me.
Lena
Yeah, of course I did. Of course, I would. She would never.
What are you doing?! Don't listen to her. You are me!
You're not her. You're you. You put so much pressure on yourself to be good. But you're good enough. [holds out her hand]
Give me back my powers, you ungrateful brat!
[Lena and the others wake up, returning to reality]
Lena
I'm awake! I'm me again! We did it!
Wait, we should test to be certain that this isn't a dream.
That's right. We might still be dreaming. [lifts up the sleeping bag sheets; annoyed] Ugh. It's fine. Fine, we're awake. It's fine. Whatever.
[Webby, Lena and Violet, weapons in hand, approach the front door of McDuck Manor, which is being accosted by pounds and moaning. When they open the door, Gladstone Gander tumbles in.]
UNCLE SCROOGE I NEED YOU [falls to the ground]
[The girls stare at Gladstone. Violet raises her stake.]
Stand down, Violet. It's just Donald's lucky loafer of a cousin, Gladstone.
Lena
Mmmm, if he's so lucky, why is he crying?
BECAUSE THE WORLD IS BROKEN! [blows his nose on Lena's shirt] It happened last night...
[Flashback...]
I had just been given a ride by a gent who needed help breaking in his new stretch limo.
[Gladstone steps out of the limo and waves to it. Shortly afterward, he is blasted by a strange green energy beam and looks lethargic.]
I was feeling peckish and a little drained. I found myself outside an All You Can Eat shrimp buffet and I screamed with joy because I love shrimp. I strolled inside to be named the 1,000th customer and awarded a free meal, but get this: no confetti? Or balloons? I asked for food and you know what they asked for in return? PAYMENT! I opened my wallet, it was EMPTY. Not ONE twenty dollar bill conveniently flew in, either, so I had to go to a bank! But it was...closed? Did you know things could be CLOSED? So I went to the ATM around the corner and asked it for twenty dollars! And you know how much it gave me?
[Flashback ends.]
Yeah! Not the usual accidental sack of rubies! THAT'S when I knew something was up and I needed Uncle Scrooge to fix it!
[Gladstone paces around the area, knocking things over and almost tripping.]
I had to WALK here! It took HOURS! No one offered me a ride, no passing hang gliders scooped me up and not ONE gust of wind whimsically carried me! IS THIS WHAT LIFE IS LIKE FOR YOU PEOPLE!!?
[Gladstone falls chin first to the ground.]
OW! Why weren't there PILLOWS THERE!?
[The Phantom Blot siphons the magic out of Magica's amulet as Lena struggles to keep it away from him. Lena blasts a root on the ground which throws the Blot off balance and sends the amulet into the sky. The amulet careens towards a despondent Gladstone.]
Lena
Gladstone!
[Gladstone looks up and sees the amulet falling his way.]
[Gladstone positions himself in the amulet's path]
[To himself] You can do this, Gladstone. Succeed on your own merits!
[The amulet slams into Gladstone's head but he DOES catch it.]
[Lena breathes a sigh of relief.]
Better luck next time, Blotty! HAA!
[Gladstone attempts to blast Phantom Blot with the amulet's magic, but he is holding it backwards and blasts himself instead. His body is awash in a purple glow. When it fades, Gladstone has been transformed into the unluckiest being in existence: Donald Duck. He sees his reflection in the swamp waters and gasps in horror.]
GDGladstone/Donald
Nohoho!
[Gladstone/Donald throws off his sailor hat and drops the amulet, then proceeds to run off in a panic.]
GDGladstone/Donald
[In utter terror] NOOOHOnoonoo! ANYTHING BUT THIS!!!
[Gladstone/Donald trips on an uprooted root, slides into a log, gets lodged in, and when a large tree branch falls on the other end of the log, he is sent flipping into the swamp waters and floats away, tail-feathers in the air.]
Lads, lasses, where are ya?
Ahh, I knew you could foil those feculent F.O.W.L. agents!
SSteelbeek
Your Bazaar adventure is over. Get it? "Bazaar?" Ho-ho-ho, man! I gotta try stand up!
[closes his beak, shutting him up] Quiet! My patience is up. [walks over to the kids] Hand over the Sword pieces.
Lena
[to Huey] Come on, man! Duke it up again!
