Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera quotes from DuckTales (2017)

Fenton

Operating passcode, "Blathering blatherskite!"

Fenton

I'm not a mascot, or an intern, out a fancy tool! Blathering blatherskite! I! Am! Gizmoduck!

Gyro

Intern, try to think.

Fenton Crackshell

But that's all I do all the time.

Gyro

Well, do it better.

Launchpad

Eh, you probably couldn't fit a driver in that tiny train anyway. Uh, say, speaking of drivers…

Scrooge

Gyro, the board needs results. Ever since Bulb Tech backfired, you need an invention that, well…

Dewey

Won't turn evil and kill us all.

Gyro

Due respect, sir, innovation doesn't work that way. I can't just wake up one morning and say…

Dewey

How about a self-driving robot car?

Launchpad

A what now?

Gyro

Too many variables. A self driving robot car would turn evil like that. Nobody could…

Dewey

Well, Mark Beaks did. He just posted that he's having a demo later today.

Gyro

What?! That hack couldn't even program a microwave. We'll see about this.

Launchpad

Okay, cool. I'll just tell you my big news later.

Scrooge

Launchpad, I almost forgot.

Launchpad

Yeah?

Scrooge

Stop having mail delivered to my office. That's for incoming checks and death threats only.

Gyro

[calling for Fenton] Dummy! There's some dummies here to see you.

Fenton

At your beck and call, Dr. Gearloose. I heard everything. [notices Manny] Everything. I'm happy to prove my worth by aiding Mr. McQuack.

Fenton

Forgive Dr. Gearloose. He's a little more deranged than usual trying to figure out how Beaks beat him to the self-driving car.

Launchpad

That won't be a problem once I put that tin can in its place. In the recycling, where the garbage goes.

Dewey

Woof. We'll work on smack talk later. Right now, we need something to help Launchpad get the edge on B.U.D.D.Y.

Fenton

Step into my laboratory.

Dewey

Your lab is in the bathroom?

Fenton

Dr. Gearloose says this is the perfect place for my work. I'm just now realizing that remark may not have been entirely complimentary. No matter!

Scrooge

Impressive display, Beaks. You have really built something here.

Gyro

Or did he?! [pops up from behind a standee of himself] I couldn't be sure until I saw how it performed under pressure. The precision, the deadly grace. Oh, yes, I've seen it before. Ha ha! Beaks Tech is actually Bulb Tech! That's how he beat me to the punch! He stole my technology! [to a police officer standee] Officer, arrest this man!

Scrooge

Is this true?

Beaks

Of course not. I didn't steal it from him. I stole it from a public online forum, then "Beaks'd" it up.

Gyro

How would one of my inventions end up online? [gazes at Fenton and gasps]

Fenton

[examines Lil' Bulb; amazed] Oh, wow!

Gyro

[sharped with anger] You!

Fenton

You circumvented the kill switch. Why didn't anyone else on the message board figure that out?

Gyro

[furiously] You posted my top-secret plans on the INTERNET?!?!

Fenton

You were having so much trouble keeping your inventions from turning evil, so I, turned to the Net to crowd-source a solution? [smiles sheepishly]

Launchpad

I may not be Mr. McD's driver for much longer, but he can still count on me to get him where he's going. I'll keep him busy. You figure out a way to get them out of that car.

Fenton

I think I got something for that. You try corralling them into a ravine, or-

Launchpad

I'll probably just crash into it.

Fenton

Isn't that really, really unsafe?

Launchpad

Tried playing safe, old friend. Didn't work. [takes out his Darkwing Duck bobblehead figure] Let's get dangerous.

Fenton

[after Mark Beaks initiates the suit detonation protocol] Cancel the order! It'll explode!

Beaks

Too panicked! Can't process! Save me, amigo!

Fenton

I am not your amigo!

Fenton

[waking up in the hospital] M'ma?

Pollito!

Fenton

I think I was fired. I was definitely fired.

Just rest right now. Someone sprung for the VIP hospital suite.

Scrooge

[offscreen] Need a word with you.

Fenton

Mr. McDuck?

Scrooge McDuck?! Ooh! I'll leave you two alone. [quietly to Fenton] See if you can get money out of it. He's loaded.

Scrooge

Looking good, lad. You work for me now. I just need a name to write on the paychecks.

Fenton

Call me... Gizmoduck!

Fenton

Dr. Gearloose?

Gyro

Intern.

Fenton

Can we have a word?

Gyro

Oh, here's two: leave now. Nothing can distract me--

Dr. Gearloose?

Gyro

[gasps and exclaims] Where did you get that thing?!

I haven't seen you since... I can't remember.

Gyro

Manny, get this dangerous machine out of my lab!

Huey

You know my friend, B.O.Y.D.?

Gyro

"B.O.Y.D.?" What idiot called it that? Its name is 2-B.O. And, yes, I know all about it. It is not your friend, it is not a boy. It is a failed experiment. I helped build 2-B.O years ago in Tokyolk, when I was just a lowly intern for the infamous Dr. Akita.

Huey

What is all this?

Gyro

It was Tokyolk's most advance research lab. This is where 2-B.O. was built.

Fenton

And where Dr. Gyro Gearloose was born! Was this your lab coat? Was this your stool? Was this your Trinocular Inverted Metallurgical Microscope? [gets dust in his eye] Ah! Dust in my eye! The dust of genius!

Gyro

All right, knock it off, intern.

Fenton

Huey, step away from B.O.Y.D. You don't know what he's capable of.

Huey

Sure, I do. He just saved me with his rocket feet.

Gyro

And that is the problem. His weapon systems are back online. We wait any longer and the city is doomed.

Huey

[breaks up the argument] Stop trying to make B.O.Y.D. something he's not. He didn't glitch once while we were having fun. He was just being a kid.

Dr. Gearloose, please, I'm a definitely real boy. Why can't you see that?

Gyro

[sighs] Because deep down, you're this. [hands B.O.Y.D. the tablet with a recorded video] This is 2-B.O.'s core memory. Dr. Akita and I invented 2-B.O. to be the city's prime defense robot, but during the test run, 2-B.O. lost control and attacked the city, until Tezuka finally took it down. 2-B.O. was the first invention I worked on that turned evil, and I have spent my whole life trying to live that down. 2-B.O., B.O.Y.D., whatever, is dangerous down to its core.

But, you said you could fix me, so I'd never malfunction again.

Gyro

Yes. By shutting you down for good.

Huey

[grabs hold of Gyro's arm] B.O.Y.D., run! Get out of here!

Huey

Fenton! I'm sorry to interrupt…whatever you were doing, but I was searching the docks and found a piece of Agent Dee's clothing embedded with nanites!

Fenton

Agent Dee, you say.

Huey

If we can reverse-engineer their signal, it could lead us right to her! Hey, what are you working on?

Fenton

Oh, nothing. It's really not at all revolutionary or earth-shattering or even a little brilliant.

Huey

Did you create a virtual reality cloud space?! With thought-based environmental manipulation? Can I see it? Please, please, please?!

Fenton

I'd love to. You can only access it through a VR helmet. The Gizmo helmet only responds to me. Ahh, if only I… [Manny comes in with a cart of VR helmets and foot-taps: "Here are those extra VR helmets you asked for."; sarcastically] Thank you, Manny. How convenient. No, Huey, stop! You don't understand!

Huey

Woah. Amazing! Incredible!

Gandra

What the…?

Huey

F.O.W.L.?! Ahh! [grabs and throws a beaker at her but she dissolves it, waving her hand]

Fenton

[beams in] Gandra Dee? How did you get in here… a place we've never been in together… villain?

Gandra

Ugh, you are such a bad liar.

Huey

He was lying? Wait, Fenton, are you... working for Gandra Dee?!

Fenton

No, not working for, working with.

Huey

But she's a F.O.W.L. agent! Are you a F.O.W.L. agent?! WHAT IS HAPPENING?! [Gandra summons a weighted blanket, covering him] What's this?! Some evil F.O.W.L. trap?!

Gandra

No, it's a weighted blanket. It helps with anxiety.

Huey

Well, it can't stop ME from being ANXIOUS! I... I... curses, I'm totally relaxed now.

Gandra

[turns to Fenton] I can't believe you let someone in!

Fenton

It was an accident. But, he's not gonna judge us. Huey, Gandra and I have been working on the Gizmocloud in secret. Together.

Huey

[sits up as the weighted blanket lifts off his body] But, she's an evil cyborg.

Gandra

Yeah, this kid seems real judgement-free. [sighs deeply] My whole life, I've tried to push the boundaries of science. But that means people don't always get what you're doing. Super-science can be dangerous. It's why I ended up having to experiment on myself. And why the only people who would fund my work are villains who don't care how much destruction I cause.

Fenton

But what if there was a lab where you could perform any experiment with no chance of anyone getting hurt?

Huey

No one gets hurt because it's all virtual.

Fenton

If you have an idea, you can make a gizmo! We could share it for free. Bring super-science to the world.

Huey

No. [gazes at Gandra] You attacked us. You stole stuff for F.O.W.L.

Gandra

I've been tipping Fenton off to stop me before I do. I'm using their resources to build this place. Once it's done, I can quit F.O.W.L. for good.

Fenton

We're so close to finishing, but the lab keeps glitching.
