Plot[]
Scrooge McDuck takes the children and Launchpad McQuack on an expedition to Mount Neverrest, one of the last mountains in the world that has never been climbed. As they begin their ascension, they discover there might more than just bad weather keeping alpinists from reaching the top… and the kids begin to suspect Scrooge has a more personal motive to be climbing the mountain than he is willing to admit.
Continuity[]
- In the Season Two episode The Golden Spear (2019), Della mentions "conquering Mount Neverrest " among the adventures she would like to have with her kids, unaware that they did this very thing alongside Scrooge McDuck in her absence as depicted in this episode.
- In Raiders of the Doomsday Vault (2019), Scrooge and Dewey, while visiting the Von Drake Doomsday Vault, wear the same outfits they do in this episode.
