Plot[]
Fenton is burned out on being Gizmoduck. He's overworked, has almost no time to work on his scientific projects, and is worried people only like him because he's a superhero. When he goes on a date with a scientist he just met named Gandra Dee, he's elated to have someone in his life who loves him just for being Fenton. But what will he do when he finds out why she really came to the lab?

Continuity[]
- Omnisolve was prominently featured in the Prime Universe in a series of stories by Don Rosa, beginning with The Universal Solvent (1995).
- Benjamin Frankloon, who gets an offhand mention in this episode, would later appear in the flesh in Timephoon (2019).
Behind the Scenes[]
The Dangerous Chemistry of Gandra Dee is the thirty-ninth episode of DuckTales 2017.
In spite of being called Doctor Atmoz Fear both by Gizmoduck and a news headline in the episode, the end credits shorten his name to Dr Atmoz. The end credits also omit Tom Kenny's role as a TV reporter.
