* Scrooge's main love interests are "Glittering" Goldie O'Gilt and Brigitta [=McBridge=]. Not only they (more or less) get along the rare times they meet, Brigitta is good friends with Goldie's granddaughter Dickie (that is often implied to be ''Scrooge''[='=]s granddaughter as well).

** In "Donald, Reginella and the Fearsome Vampirione" Scrooge finds out that Donald needs to go and help Reginella when Donald's rocket-powered bicycle drops him in the Money Bin... And ''immediately'' provides a SpaceFighter and abundant ammunition. And again he's there for Donald when, once again, he's forced to leave.

* There are two major moments from Rosa's ''The Magnificent Seven (Minus Four) Caballeros!''. The first is at the start of the story. Donald is fired by Scrooge and thrown out onto the curb (And during this sequence Scrooge is also telling Donald to be back tomorrow to ''make up for the time you lost getting fired today!''), verbally mocked and literally stepped on by Gladstone, berated by Daisy for being dirty for their date (Remember he's been throw onto the ground and stepped on by this point), after which she punches him in the face and says she'll never speak to him again (And then similarly to Scrooge she, ironically, reminds him not to forget that he's "]''taking her'' to dinner tonight), and when finally asked by his nephews why he lets people treat him this way Donald sadly says that it's his lot in life to be mistreated so that others can feel better! How do his nephews respond? They secretly set it up so that Donald goes on a trip to Rio and runs into his old friends José Carioca and Panchito Pistoles. This is made even more significant due to the opening of the story which is basically a condensed version of the suffering that Donald has gone through over the course of his career/life and the constant abuse he suffers at the hands of those closest to him. José and Panchito are then not only two of Donald's closest friends, they're also some of the few characters within ''any'' Duck Universe that don't treat him badly.

* The Italian series "The Amazing Adventures of Fantomius-GentlemanThief", set in the Twenties, shows Scrooge ''coming back to Duckburg to reunite with his sisters in '''1922''''', with the implication he had done so at least once before. Turns into a TearJerker when he finds out they're out of town, [[JerkassFacade says he was back only to make sure Fantomius wouldn't steal his money]], and instructs Miss Quackfaster to not say anyone he had been back.

** Related to this in a way there's ''The Coin'', a Don Rosa story where Scrooge loses a quarter from his money bin and spends the entire story attempting to get it back and is clearly distraugt over it. At the story's end, once he does get it back, it's revealed that the reason he was so upset wasn't because he lost any random quarter. It' s one of the coins he gave Glittering Goldie after they'd stayed together for a month and she in turn threw back at him out of anger. Specifically it's the coin that landed on his head.

* In ''A Letter from Home'', also known as ''The Old Castle's Other Secret'', you have the revelation at the beginning of the story that Donald was the only one who knew Matilda, Scrooge's estranged sister, had been living at the old McDuck castle as its caretaker and that Donald had been attempting for some time to convince her to reunite with her brother without Scrooge ever knowing. Similarly to how Donald consistently attempts to push his Uncle to get with Glittering Goldie this is perhaps one of the ultimate signs of Donald's love for his Uncle, in that he's spent years attempting to get him back with the rest of his family, despite Scrooge's typical JerkassFacade.

-->'''Donald''': No! Don't! Wait! This brain-invasion messed up a lot of Uncle Scrooge's dreams, but it changed the course of one PARTICULAR dream --- the one he's having right now!"\\

* What is Scrooge's most prized possession? All the money in his money bin (and the memories stored therein)? His NumberOneDime? His Goose Egg Gold Nugget? The answer:[[spoiler: a lock of Goldie's hair, from the events of ''The Prisoner of White Agony Creek.'']]

* DonRosa's "A Letter From Home" where Scrooge, Donald and the triplets find the treasure of the Knights Templar underneath Scrooge's family's castle in Scotland. His estranged sister Matilda is there, angry with him for always putting money before family. However, Scrooge is unsuccessful at keeping the JerkassFacade on (in one point stepping in front of Matilda to prevent from getting shot), and in the end he confesses to Matilda that he feels he will never be as rich as Donald, who has three nephews who adore him.

* Several stories have Huey, Dewey and Louie lamenting that their uncle is such a screw-up compared to just about everyone else and try to turn him into a bigger success. Whether they succeed or not [[DependingOnTheWriter depends on the story]], but one such story had them complaining to each other about Donald's many flaws -- only to suddenly realize that no matter if Donald is a big success or not, he ''still'' takes care of them, cooks for them, makes sure they're clothed and happy, and on the whole uses a lot more money on them than he does on himself. Cue guilt and a resolve to start appreciating their uncle a little more in the future.

* DonRosa's "A Letter From Home" where Scrooge, Donald and the triplets find the treasure of the Knights Templar underneath Scrooge's family's castle in Scotland. His sister Matilda is there, angry with him for always putting money before family, and in one scene Scrooge confesses to her that he will never be as rich as Donald, who has three nephews who adore him.
* The ending of A Letter from Home.
** Also the scene where Scrooge [[spoiler: first jumps in front of the gun and then gets chewed out by his estranged sister.]]

* Yet another Don Rosa moment that deserves mention is The Dream of a Lifetime]] in which the Beagle Boys invade Scrooge's dreams to get him to tell the combinations to the locks, and Donald going in after them to prevent this from happening. After many amusing scenes of Scrooge dreaming about his dramatic past and Donald managing to kick out the Beagle Boys, he manages to change the outcome of Scrooge's "Klondike dream" where Scrooge is hit on the head and faints before he can save Goldie. Thanks to Donald and the Beagle Boys messing it up, it leaves Scrooge with a chance he never got in life - to spend that night with Goldie after rescuing her. Donald is kicked out of his dream, and Gyro Gearloose and the nephews want to wake their uncle up. However, Donald stops them.
