History Heartwarming / Ducktales

* Just Scrooge’s relationship with Webby. He allows her to call him Uncle Scrooge even though they’re not related and it’s so clear that he loves her and she loves him just as much as any family member.

* Scrooge tells the story of how he developed his fortune, with his nephews constantly asking him if that was when he got rich. Finally, at the end, he tells them he only felt rich when the boys and Webby came to live with him and he had a family, [[spoiler: and then they all go for a swim in Scrooge's money vault, together]]. There's something beautiful about that.

* In the same episode, when Scrooge finds out that Launchpad is [[spoiler: the Webbed Wonder is, [[WhatHaveIDone he is over whelmed with guilt when he believes he pushed Launchpad into a life of crime]]. From then on he is determined to find Launchpad first since he knows that if the police find him, Launchpad will be locked up for life.]]

* Scrooge slowly earns the respect of his burly cellmate, punctuated when he manages to arrange a visit from his mother. in return, he attempts to bust Scrooge out of jail. While it's a short sighted act, you have to commend his sheer determination to give Scrooge his freedom [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe as payback for his kindness]].

* The triplets' sheer determination that Mrs. Beakley will have nice things on her birthday, even if they have to fight their uncle ever step of the way to make him spring for them rather than the much worse (and cheaper) items he wants, is very sweet.

* Launchpad and Doofus’ friendship can be counted as heartwarming in general. Even when the whole world is picking on him, Doofus still believes in Launchpad till the end.
* Just Scrooge’s relationship with Webby. He allows her to call him Uncle Scrooge even though they’re not related and it’s so clear that he loves her and she loves him just as much as any family member.

* All of Episode #63, but especially Donald's choked final statement:
--> You are the best nephews I could ever have.
* In "[[Recap/DuckTalesS1E5NothingToFear Nothing to Fear]]", Magica [=DeSpell=] used real-life images of Uncle Scrooge & co.'s worst fears to descend upon them. For Uncle Scrooge, this took the form of being told by Huey, Dewey and Louie that they secretly couldn't stand him and resented having to live with him. In the end, the way to drive off the nightmares turned out to be to confront them with reality.

** And earlier, one of his nightmares involved seeing his money bin totally empty, and the bill collectors hounding him. He asks them what they'd possibly want since all of his money is gone. They state that they'll take his nephews away from him. His worst fear was losing his boys over his money.
* The animated version of "Back to the Klondike" may have been drastically changed, but the ending is just too sweet and beautiful and genuinely romantic not to make your heart melt.
--> '''Scrooge''': You didn't steal my gold, but I'm afraid you've stolen my heart.
* In "[[Recap/DuckTalesTheBrideWoreStripes The Bride Wore Stripes]]", the triplets' sheer determination that Mrs. Beakley will have nice things on her birthday, even if they have to fight their uncle ever step of the way to make him spring for them rather than the much worse (and cheaper) items he wants, is very sweet.
* In the episode "Once Upon a Dime", Scrooge tells the story of how he developed his fortune, with his nephews constantly asking him if that was when he got rich. Finally, at the end, he tells them he only felt rich when the boys and Webby came to live with him and he had a family, [[spoiler: and then they all go for a swim in Scrooge's money vault, together]]. There's something beautiful about that.
* In "[[Recap/DuckTalesADuckTalesValentine A DuckTales Valentine]]", Scrooge falls under a love spell that has him ignoring his family and his business. Huey, Dewey, Louie and Webbigale find out a way to break the spell is to threaten to take away the one thing that the person truly loves. So what do they do? Trick Scrooge into thinking he'll lose his wealth if he stays with the woman he's with. However, it doesn't work and Scrooge seems to willfully part with his money. It's only when the kid's lives are in danger that Scrooge snaps out of his spell in order to save the children under his care.
* In the end of the story arc that introduced Bubba ("Ali Bubba's Cave"), Bubba loses his cave in the present day when the steam cannon used to get the diamonds in the cave to Scrooge destroys the cave in the process (and Bubba had already given his life in the past up for Scrooge and the boys). Seeing how badly Bubba missed this last link to his past, Scrooge takes Bubba in and gives him a mock-up of the cave for Tootsie and Bubba to live in.
* In the very first episode, as Scrooge is having a TV interview over his industrial growth, a reporter notes how his family must be proud of his success. At this point, Scrooge stammers, unable to quite divulge on the subject. Eventually he admits his life has actually been pretty lonely until his nephews came along, [[EurekaMoment at which point it comes to him]], he has "the boys", speaking proudly and eagerly of their spunk and likeness to himself, oblivious that at this very point they are indeed vigorously trying to protect one of his treasures from the Beagle Boys.
* In ''Home Sweet Homer'' Huey, Dewie, and Louie all talk about how they want to grow up to be as just like Uncle Scrooge, and then argue over who's the most like him. Scrooge's proud look while steering the boat says it all.
* The conclusion to "Super Ducktales." For most of the first two episodes prior to becoming Gizmoduck, Fenton is just up screwing up worse and worse and is starting to be seen in-universe by Scrooge as TheLoad. In the final part where the Money Bin is stolen by [[GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere some robots]] that want to melt it and everything with it down in order to create more robots, their leader MEL exposes Fenton as Gizmoduck and sentences him and Scrooge to be executed. [[DespairEventHorizon Scrooge loses all faith at this point]], but Fenton manages to singlehandedly [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome defeat MEL]] ''[[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome without]]'' [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome the use of his Gizmoduck suit by simply using his natural talents to show up his supposed superior computing skills]], and then manages to rescue Scrooge and Launchpad and recover the Money Bin. After the trio return to Earth and the Money Bin is replaced, Scrooge proudly tells him to show up to work the next morning. [[EarnYourHappyEnding Fenton has finally earned Scrooge's respect]].
** Also in "[[Recap/DuckTalesS2E2SuperDuckTales Super [=DuckTales=]]]", Launchpad letting everyone stay at his home after the Beagle Boys rob Scrooge of his money and then take the mansion from him. It also becomes HeartwarmingInHindsight considering that back in "[[Recap/DuckTalesS1E20DownAndOutInDuckburg Down and Out in Duckburg]]" when Scrooge had also lost both his wealth and home he was afraid of going to Launchpad for help because he believed that Launchpad wouldn't want to give him the time of day anymore now that he was poor. Looks like he underestimated Mr. [=McQuack=].
--> '''Launchpad''': Feel free to crash here; I do it all the time! I know it's cramped, but what's important is that we're together!
* In "[[Recap/DuckTalesMyMotherThePsychic My Mother The Psychic]]" when M’ma thinks her son will never come to see her again thanks to her mistreatment to him, she breaks down in tears and rushes off to a mother-son therapy [[spoiler: (which is actually a trick of the Beagle Boys.)]]
