* HairTriggerTemper: Much less to the explosive extent of his uncle, but still there. Huey inherited Donald's [[spoiler: and his mother's]] temper, and while he's usually very together he's easily frustrated and the most likely of the triplets to get bristly and stern. While Dewey responds to tense situations with excitement and Louie with panic, Huey tends to respond with (controlled) anger - and in the cases where he ''can't'' control it, he can explode just like his uncle after all.

* AmbiguousDisorder: Huey has a lot of traits typical of autism. He's overly dependent on what he knows, to the point of being scared of the dark and the unknown, as demonstrated in "Terror of the Terra-firmians!". His devotion to the Junior Woodchucks reads a lot like an autistic person's special interest. He also has a lot of trouble with "imagination stuff" and is derisively compared to a robot in the beginning of "Astro B.O.Y.D.!" for his rule following. His excited arm-flapping at one point in the same episode could also be interpreted as stimming.

Hubert "Huey" Duck
[[quoteright:236:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dt2017___huey.png]]
[[caption-width-right:236: "Junior Woodchuck Guidebook, you truly have the answer for everything!"]]
->'''Voiced By''': Danny Pudi
The oldest and most responsible triplet. Tends to be very 'by the book'. Granted, the book in question is the [[GreatBigBookOfEverything Junior Woodchuck Guidebook]], but he can get very uncomfortable when a situation goes too far outside what is familiar and known to him.
He likes red.
----
* AdaptationalNiceGuy:
** In the previous adaptation, while Huey and his brothers did care for Webby, they also treated her as an AnnoyingYoungerSibling and ''hated'' spending time with her just because she was a girl and had feminine interests. Here, he and his brothers treat her with respect and enjoy her companionship with no problems with her gender.
** He's also nicer in general. Usually when the triplets are portrayed with different personalities, Huey is often the reckless, sometimes selfish, hot-headed one. Here, he's the voice of reason, and seems to have more of a BigBrotherInstinct to his younger brothers. Plus, he's more polite and mild-mannered.
* {{Adorkable}}: Both Dewey and Louie consider him to be a nerd and for good reason. He's passionate about "nerd stuff" like geology and history and becomes utterly giddy during the submarine ride when he brings snacks, a collection of sea shanties and T-shirts. [[spoiler:He gets it from his mother.]]
* AllForNothing: He and Dewey answer Fethry's call expecting that he made a scientific discovery. After numerous near-fatal encounters, one of which where he [[ItMakesSenseInContext kisses a mutated deep-sea tube worm]], they are greatly disappointed when it turns out that Fethry's discovery is just bioluminescent krill, even more so when Fethry explains that he is not a scientist as assumed.
* ArbitrarySkepticism: In "Terror of the Terra-firmians!", Huey doesn't believe that the title creatures exist, despite all the unbelievable things he sees when adventuring. Webby calls him out on this. This is actually foreshadowed in the pilot, where he gushes about Scrooge finding out the Chupacabra was just a shaved bear, implying he believes all of the supernatural and mystic to have a logical explanation.
* BadLiar: Going with his more upstanding personality he is shown to be a very bad liar, almost as bad as Webby.
-->'''Donald:''' ''[suspiciously]'' Where's Dewey?\\
'''Louie:''' Sleeping!\\
'''Huey:''' [[ImplausibleDeniability Who's Dewey?]]
* BerserkButton: Although he's nice and mild-mannered most of the time, Mark Beaks [[spoiler: first choosing him over Dewey as an intern, but then employing Dewey as his superior]] breaks his patience and sends him into a rage fit not unlike his Uncle Donald tends to throw. Later, [[spoiler:when a boss character ruins his carefully cultivated farm plot in ''Legends of Legendquest'', he goes so berserk fighting it that Della has to physically pry him away from the keyboard in the real world to get him to stop]].
* BigBrotherInstinct: With being the TeamDad, Huey looks out for Dewey, Louie, and Webby.
* BigNo: When Donald accidentally destroys the water show that Huey had become enamored with in "The House of the Lucky Gander!".
* CallingTheOldManOut:
** He hits his RageBreakingPoint when Scrooge wants to reach the top of Mount Neverrest with limited supplies, in freezing weather that would kill them, and navigate dangerous terrain. He calls him out for risking their lives recklessly.
** After Scrooge tells the kids [[spoiler:about Della and the Spear of Selene, the boys are understandably angry at their uncle for building a rocket that would allow their mother to go to space while she was expecting and for not doing anything to save her. The truth is quite different, but Scrooge is taken aback by their accusations and loses his temper, causing things to escalate.]]
* CantTakeCriticism: In "Timephoon", after Huey continually complains how Bubba's behavior does not align with his anthropological research on caveducks, Dewey finally suggests that Huey's research is wrong. Huey's response to this is to start LaughingMad and insist ''Bubba'' is the one who is wrong.
* CharacterExaggeration: Of the triplets, he's the one whose character most resembles their shared personality in the comics, particularly Don Rosa's interpretation of them: he's an upbeat, helpful and generally morally-upstanding guy (who nevertheless isn't above the occasional delve into mischief), he's a clear SmartGuy who values knowledge, history, and research, and he's a dedicated and hyper-resourceful Junior Woodchuck. However, compared to the Nephews' comic counterparts, these traits have been exaggerated to comical and {{Adorkable}} extremes.
* CharacterTics: Huey tends to clench his fists/arms together.
* ChildProdigy: Thanks to the JWG and his scout activities, Huey's become quite proficient in a number of fields from customer service to battlefield tactics to trapping to even advanced robotics!
* ColorCodedCharacters: With his brothers and Webby; Huey is associated with red.
* ControlFreak: Has a very high opinion of his own planning and organizational skills, and gets testy if others don't fall completely in line with his plans and checklists. He also has a tendency to micromanage when he's put in charge of things, needing everything to be ''perfect'' by his standards (see: "[=McMystery=] at [=McDuck=] [=McManor=]"). He has also at one point expressed a desire for his brothers to just blindly obey him.
** This even applies to his own life - he tends to fall back on the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook for guidance, and holds its entries as the highest authority on how things should be done.
* CreativeSterility: In "A Nightmare on Killmotor Hill!", his dream is just himself having comically long legs that make him the tallest triplet, in contrast to Dewey creating an entire high school setting revolving around himself and Louie transforming himself into a cat in a mansion. When Dewey points out how lame this is, Huey protests he's not good at using his imagination.
* DidNotThinkThisThrough:
** The boys try to start a pillow fight with ''Webby''. Huey even asks why they thought it was a good idea.
** Huey teaching the Beagle Boys scout skills that could be used against him and his brothers at a later date.
* DistressedDude: At the climax of "Terror of the Terra-Firmians!".
* DivergentCharacterEvolution: Averted, he's the closest the triplets are to their original portrayal (down to even having the same outfit as the classic triplets), whereas Louie and Dewey are diverged in personality & fashion.
* DoWrongRight: In "Day of the Only Child!" The Beagle Boys' traps to catch Huey are poorly constructed, so Huey decides to help them make better traps, reasoning that if he's going to get captured, he might as well be captured ''properly''.
* DubNameChange: He's called Billy in the Russian dub.
* TheDutifulSon: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. He's the most responsible of the triplets but will go along with their mischievous actions.
* EmbarrassingFirstName: Hubert.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Two moments in "Woo-oo!".
** Cooks Donald breakfast and starts to iron his suit for his job interview, showing how responsible and helpful he is. He's also involved with Dewey and Louie's plan to sneak off to Cape Suzette in the houseboat while Donald is away, demonstrating that [[NotSoAboveItAll he's not above getting mischievous]]. However, unlike Louie, [[BadLiar he's not as good at covering his tracks about it]].
** During their gush about Scrooge's adventures in the beginning, each sibling shares what they've heard of his tales, and what they admire most about him. For Huey, it was Scrooge uncovering the truth about the Chubacabra, showing his admiration for wit and mysteries. It also foreshadows his AgentScully behavior as he's quick to note the Chupacabra was just a shaved bear.
* FlatEarthAtheist: He refuses to believe in Terra-Firmians because they're not in the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook, but readily admits that most of the stuff they've encountered in the adventures they have with Scrooge aren't in the Guidebook either and has been adding entries for them himself.
* FreakOut: He has a brief one when, after getting an internship he earned fair and square, [[spoiler:Mark Beaks makes Dewey a VP for no other reason than his stylish briefcase and then makes Huey work for him.]] This deeply offends the eldest triplet's sense of hard work and fair play, and causes him to ramble in an increasingly frustrated manner, throw papers around, and start wrecking an edible desk. Lampshaded by Dewey:
-->'''Dewey''': Oh, no. Huey's broken!
* FreudianTrio:
** With his brothers, he plays the Superego to Louie's Id and Dewey's Ego, being the most responsible and academically smart.
** In "Terror of the Terra-Firmians", he continues playing the Superego to Webby's Id and Lena's Ego.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Forms this with his brothers and Webby, he is the Melancholic (analytical and organized).
* GreatBigBookOfEverything: The Junior Woodchuck Guidebook, and oh so very played with. [[spoiler:Huey flat-out admits in Terror of the Terra-Firmians that if the guidebook lacks anything, he adds it personally.]]
* HairTriggerTemper: Much less to the explosive extent of his uncle, but still there. Huey inherited Donald's [[spoiler: and his mother's]] temper, and while he's usually very together he's easily frustrated and the most likely of the triplets to get bristly and stern. While Dewey responds to tense situations with excitement and Louie with panic, Huey tends to respond with (controlled) anger - and in the cases where he ''can't'' control it, he can explode just like his uncle after all.
* HeKnowsTooMuch: In "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks!", after Huey and Dewey find out the truth about Project Tah-Dah, Beaks fires them, reasoning he can ruin their potential credibility by giving them a reason to hold a grudge.
* HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler:The boys are so depressed after moving out of the mansion after the events of "The Last Crash of the Sunchaser!" that Donald tries to rally them by suggesting they move to Cape Suzette. Donald looks extremely guilty when Louie reluctantly loses his Egypt adventure trinket and wants to dive back into the water to save it.]]
* HiddenDepths:
** Despite more or less being the OnlySaneMan when in regards to his brothers and Webby, in "Terror of the Terra-Firmians!", it's revealed that Huey is ''deathly'' afraid of the unknown, hence his reliance on his Junior Woodchuck Guidebook.
** For all of his academic smarts and dutifulness, Huey has a ''very'' volatile temper when pushed to the breaking point. [[FatalFlaw To the point where he's willing to just stand by and watch Falcon Graves throw Mark Beaks off a building]].
** In "The Secret(s) of Castle [=McDuck=]!" Huey is able to pluck out notes on a bow because he's first chair cello in the Junior Woodchuck Philharmonic Orchestra.
* HypocriticalHumor: He refuses to believe in anything that isn't in the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook, until he adds it there himself. Hilariously there ''are'' plans for a Sasquatch trap in the book.
* IResembleThatRemark: When Lena mocks the triplets for being "exactly the same", Huey, Dewey, and Louie all protest that claim... [[SpeakInUnison all at once in the exact same way]].
* IdenticalTwinIDTag: Triplet ID Tag, in this case; he wears a red polo shirt and is the only one of the triplets to still wear a baseball cap.
* InsaneTrollLogic: "It only exists if it has an entry in the Junior Woodchuck's Guidebook, because if something isn't in the Guidebook I can add an entry for it."
** He believes that Isaac Newton got his scientific breakthroughs from the JWG.
* InSeriesNickname: His persona when he hits a RageBreakingPoint, being such a contrast from his usual calm-and-collected nature, is often referred to as "the Duke" (mostly by Dewey, but once by himself). (The title coming from the incident where, in the midst of his first major on-screen temper tantrum, he sarcastically called himself "the Duke of Making a Mess.")
* InsufferableGenius: Downplayed in that he isn't a ''genius'', but is rather book smart. In "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks", he scoffs at the idea of Dewey succeeding in the business world. In "Timephoon", he has a mental breakdown when he meets Bubba and discovers that all of the research he had done on caveducks wasn't wholly accurate.
* {{Irony}}: Each of Scrooge's traits that the triplets expressed admiration for in the first episode become sources of anger towards him upon learning the truth of [[spoiler:Della's disappearance:]] Huey, who admires Scrooge's intelligence and wisdom, can't believe Scrooge [[spoiler:didn't account for the dangerous variables of the cosmic storm and order Della to turn back instead of trying to guide her through it (although given Scrooge's comment that she was stubborn, it's implied he did try to talk her down only to be ignored).]]
* ItRunsInTheFamily:
** Each of the siblings inherit a trait from Scrooge. Huey enjoys solving mysteries and uses intelligence above all else, much like Scrooge. He also has his work ethic, and sense of fairness. However, unlike Scrooge, Huey is shown to struggle with going with the flow and adapting to a situation when things don't go according to plan.
** In "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks", he also shows some of his Uncle Donald's traits, namely his resentment about his BoringButPractical work being taken for granted by his peers and loved ones, and [[spoiler:when Dewey gets promoted by Mark Beaks for doing nothing, he dissolves into a meltdown of resentment-driven UnstoppableRage that would probably make Donald both proud, worried, and guilty]].
* JerkassBall: Grabs it in "[=McMystery=] at [=McDuck=] Manor", where he forces his great-uncle to attend a birthday party, even when it's clear Scrooge is only there because Huey begged him to and has completely refused to partake in any party games. His obsession with throwing a great party for his uncle also irks his little brothers when he refuses to call either Beakley or the police for help when Scrooge is kidnapped.
* TheLeader: A per usual he's the leader of the nephews and Webby, due to being the oldest and his knack for quick thinking and organization.
* LethalChef: Heavily implied in the pilot. His attempt at cooking Donald a big good-luck breakfast of fried egg and fish ends with the fish 'leaking' a rather unpleasant looking green substance and the egg yolk oozing over the whole thing. Donald, naturally, is not incredibly eager to eat it.
** Justified as Donald is implied to not let the boys cook, and/or it was possibly deliberate with how quickly Huey threw away the breakfast he made that it was to shoo their uncle out for their plan.
* LikeBrotherAndSister: WordOfGod has stated that this is as far as Huey (or, any of the triplets) will go with Webby. NoHuggingNoKissing (though Webby has excitedly hugged Huey once), they'll be strictly friends only. Of the triplets, his relationship with Webby tends to stray into VitriolicBestBuds territory, due to Huey being more practical and safety conscious.
* LikeParentLikeChild: A prequel comic reveals that [[spoiler:Huey's mother Della had an archaeologist side, and showed the same passion for knowledge and discoveries.]] He and [[spoiler:his mom]] are also the eldest of their siblings.
** "What Ever Happened To Della Duck?!" reveals that his mother was also a Junior Woodchuck [[spoiler:and still brings the guidebook on all of her adventures.]]
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Along with Louie. Dewey and Webby haven't told them anything about Della or their investigation into her disappearance for most of the first season. Averted as of "The Secret(s) of Castle [=McDuck=]!", when Dewey finally confesses.
* LovableCoward: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed.]] While Huey is smart and usually brave, he can be crippled by [[NothingIsScarier fear of the unknown]], as shown in "Terror of the Terra-firmians!".
* MeaningfulName: Hubert means "bright mind" when translated from German. With his knowledge and optimism, Huey's mind is "bright" for two reasons.
* {{Nephewism}}: Huey and his brothers have been raised and cared for by their Uncle Donald all of their lives.
* NeverMyFault: In "Sky Pirates...in the Sky!", after Dewey explains why he ran off, Huey tries deflecting any blame for it by claiming that Dewey has poor communication skills. Scrooge promptly nudges him to make him stop and apologize.
* NiceGuy: Huey is thoughtful, friendly, and sweet.
* NiceHat: He's the only one of the triplets who still wears a baseball cap (red, of course) as they did in the original series and other media. It's explained in "The Depths of Cousin Fethry!" that he does it based on a claim from the Junior Woodchuck Guide - "a warm head breeds warm, healthy thoughts."
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Subverted in "[=McMystery=] at [=McDuck=] [=McManor=]!"; Scrooge thanks Huey for the party because it [[spoiler:called Duckworth back from the dead]], who rescued Scrooge and gave all his enemies a right scare, in case they ever thought to try and enter the mansion again. But he and [[spoiler:Duckworth]] warn Huey to never host a party again.
* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Of the triplets, Huey is the "Nice" one, as he is the most responsible and usually the first to point out a rash plan.
** In notable circumstances, he can switch places with Dewey as being the "In-Between" guy.
*** "Daytrip of Doom!" has Huey and Louie both, at first, think Webby as being too socially awkward to join them on their trip. Dewey is the only one of the triplets who's willing to invite her to tag along.
*** "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks!": After Mark Beaks is revealed as a fraud, [[RevengeBeforeReason Huey is all up for letting Falcon Graves toss the jerk off the building.]] Dewey is the one who says they have to intervene. Also, while not unjustified, Huey is revealed to have the most volatile temper of his brothers when pushed to breaking point.
* NonActionGuy: He and Louie are this, while Dewey and Webby are ActionHeroes.
* NotSoAboveItAll: While Huey is much more book smart, responsible, and polite than his brothers and Webby, his status as such has also resulted in him acting prideful, stubborn and slightly condescending:
** Huey's first EstablishingCharacterMoment shows that he's still just as mischievous and scheming as Dewey and Louie.
** "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks!" reveals that he's the one who inherited his Uncle Donald's volatile temper.
* NothingIsScarier: His greatest fear is the unknown.
* ObsessedAreTheListmakers: His ControlFreak tendencies lets him have checklists to go with his organization/planning, most prevalent in "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks!".
* OhCrap: His reaction to finding out the lengths the Beagles are willing to go to "protect" him in "Day of the Only Child!".
* OnlySaneMan: Out of all the triplets, his cautious and responsible nature results in him being the one most likely to play this role. However, several episodes prove that he's NotSoAboveItAll. In "The Impossible Summit of Mount Neverrest" [[spoiler:he plays this to Scrooge as his quest to reach the frankly impossible summit nearly gets himself and the rest of the expedition killed]].
* OwMyBodyPart: When Webby ambushes Huey during their dart gun game, the scene cuts away and we hear him shout "[[ShotInTheAss Ow, my tailbone!]]"
* {{Pride}}: One of his defining flaws, inherited from Scrooge. Huey will often boast about being a Junior Woodchuck and a lot of the time he will refuse to admit when he is in the wrong.
* RageBreakingPoint: Sometimes, through anger or obsession or both. He has an ''epic'' freakout when Mark Beaks overlooks his hard work in favor of Dewey's flash, and when he thinks Cousin Fethry misled them into a useless adventure, [[LetMeAtHim Dewey has to hold him back from]] ''[[LetMeAtHim throttling]]'' [[LetMeAtHim him.]]
* RevengeBeforeReason: After [[BrokenPedestal Mark Beaks is revealed as a fraud]], Huey is content to just watch Falcon Graves toss the guy off a building. Dewey has to snap him out of this line of thinking.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Bubba turning out to be wildly anachronistic compared to what Huey ''expects'' a Cave Duck to be like makes his eyes turn red with barely contained rage.
* RedIsHeroic: He's the unofficial leader of the triplets, and wears red.
* RedIsViolent: As the series goes on, he becomes more prone to violent outbursts upon losing his temper, similar to Donald [[spoiler:and Della]].
* SanitySlippage:
** He does not take Mark Beaks making [[spoiler:Dewey]] a VP well ''at all''.
--->'''Dewey''': Oh, no. Huey's broken!
** He becomes frantic about his sewing skills when Louie points out the stripes on his Junior Woodchucks uniform are coming undone, and slowly grows insane when he tries to sew them back on.
* ScienceHero: To Dewey's ActionHero and Louie's GuileHero. Huey admires his uncle Scrooge most for the scientific discoveries he made while adventuring.
* ScheduleFanatic: Plans out an entire itinerary for the group's submarine voyage, which Dewey considers lame.
* ScrewThisImOutOfHere:
** At the end of "The Last Crash of the Sunchaser!", [[spoiler:the boys, disillusioned with Scrooge, ask Donald to move the boat back to the marina.]]
** He attempts this in "The Depths of Fethry Duck!" when he is disillusioned with Fethry and decides to go back to the surface. The arrival of a giant monstrous krill further accelerates the leave for all of them.
** In "Storkules in Duckburg!", he is so livid that Louie can't pay them due to spending all their money on now-useless merchandise that he wordlessly storms out of their bedroom.
** In "The Golden Armory of Cornelius Coot!", the boys immediately decide to leave when it turns out Cornelius Coot's treasure was just corn, despite Webby insisting otherwise.
* ShipperOnDeck:
** The triplets are all interested in Scrooge's relationship with Goldie and tease him about it throughout "The Golden Lagoon of White Agony Plains!", even calling their adventure together a date.
** He's also quick to ship Fenton and Gandra together in "The Dangerous Chemistry of Gandra Dee!", even calling out the MeetCute trope by name in their first interactions.
* SkewedPriorities:
** In "Day of the Only Child!" Huey knows the Beagle Brothers are posing as Woodchucks and plan on kidnapping him... but he sticks with them anyways in order to get a badge.
** In "The Dangerous Chemistry of Gandra Dee!", when Gandra [[spoiler:is revealed to be working with Mark Beaks]], he becomes more worried about Fenton's heart getting broken than the fact that, y'know, [[spoiler:''there's a spy for Beaks in the lab'']].
* TheSmartGuy: The most knowledgeable and resourceful of the triplets. He knows a lot about organization, general trivia, history (well [[EntertaininglyWrong good for a layman]] anyway) and science. His scientific knowledge [[spoiler:proves useful in "The Impossible Summit of Mount Neverrest" where he figures out the wormholes and the nature of the mountain]].
* SpeakInUnison: The triplets do this - albeit unintentionally - after Lena mocks them for being the same.
-->'''Lena''': That's cute, with the names and the color-coded outfits... is that your thing, you're all exactly the same?
-->'''Huey, Dewey, & Louie''': Ha, no way! We're all unique snowflakes... Well, this usually never happens! This is really weird! Okay, stop talking! (beat) {{Antidisestablishmentarianism}}! Seriously?! GAH!
* {{Squee}}: The triplets have this reaction when they find out Donald is taking them to stay at Scrooge's in "Woo-oo!".
* StopHavingFunGuy: When Dewey is enjoying the slides and such at the Waddle office, Huey admonishes him for having fun and insists that they're serious work tools that are there to help with worker productivity. Immediately followed by perhaps the flattest 'whee' ever uttered in television.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: {{Justified|Trope}}. Huey shares a striking resemblance to his brothers because they are identical triplets.
* TeamDad: When it's just him, his brothers, and Webby, Huey tends to act as the surrogate father figure.
* ThrowTheBookAtThem: In the 'Meet Huey' promotional short, Huey knocks out Bigfoot by throwing the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook at him. If you [[FreezeFrameBonus look carefully]], Huey consults the book before throwing it, implying that the guidebook instructed him to use it as a weapon.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Easily the nicest of the triplets and always willing to lend a hand. While he might not be as good as the other two at lying or getting into mischief, he is great at leading the way out.
* UnstoppableRage: In "Happy Birthday, Doofus Drake!", [[spoiler:he completely goes on a [[Anime/DragonBallZ Super Saiyan]]-style rampage after he ranks up all his XP points to defeat a monster that destroyed his crops.]]
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: InUniverse. [[spoiler:When Della returns, she reveals that she wanted Huey's name to be "Jet".]]
* WhatTheHellHero:
** Huey and Dewey are unimpressed with Scrooge's petty show of [[spoiler:stepping over George Mallardy's corpse and mockingly saying that now he's the man who made it the ''second'' furthest up Mount Neverrest.]]
--->'''Huey''': I think the mountain got even ''for'' you!
** During "The Secret(s) of Castle [=McDuck=]!", in a depressing case of RealityEnsues, Huey and Louie finally find out about [[spoiler:Dewey's investigation into their mom.]] They are understandably not happy at being kept in the dark.
** He confronts Louie during "The Most Dangerous Game... Night!", asking him why is so insistent on not going on adventures.
** He calls out Louie for wasting all their money in "Storkules in Duckburg!".
* WhoWritesThisCrap: Asks this while acting out in the Harp-Be-Gone advertisement, which had a really bad type casting (he's the wife, Webby is the husband, and Storkules is their baby child).
* WrongGenreSavvy: He is all too familiar with Locked Room Mysteries, but during "[=McMystery=] at [=McDuck=] [=McManor=]!" he fails to identify the right culprit multiple times. Also, he knows the party should end when the right culprit is revealed, but doesn't know what to do after Nik Nokturne (aka. Black Arts Beagle) is "revealed" as such.
* YankTheDogsChain: In "Timephoon!", he gets extremely frustrated by Bubba contradicting his cave-duck studies and resorts to documenting his behavior under Dewey and Webby's suggestion. After he submits his research to the Junior Woodchucks, it ends up being rejected due to being considered "wildly outlandish".

[[caption-width-right:236: "Junior Woodchuck Guidebook, you truly have the answer for everything!"]]
->'''Voiced By''': Danny Pudi
The oldest and most responsible triplet. Tends to be very 'by the book'. Granted, the book in question is the [[GreatBigBookOfEverything Junior Woodchuck Guidebook]], but he can get very uncomfortable when a situation goes too far outside what is familiar and known to him.
He likes red.
----
* AdaptationalNiceGuy:
** In the previous adaptation, while Huey and his brothers did care for Webby, they also treated her as an AnnoyingYoungerSibling and ''hated'' spending time with her just because she was a girl and had feminine interests. Here, he and his brothers treat her with respect and enjoy her companionship with no problems with her gender.
** He's also nicer in general. Usually when the triplets are portrayed with different personalities, Huey is often the reckless, sometimes selfish, hot-headed one. Here, he's the voice of reason, and seems to have more of a BigBrotherInstinct to his younger brothers. Plus, he's more polite and mild-mannered.
* {{Adorkable}}: Both Dewey and Louie consider him to be a nerd and for good reason. He's passionate about "nerd stuff" like geology and history and becomes utterly giddy during the submarine ride when he brings snacks, a collection of sea shanties and T-shirts. [[spoiler:He gets it from his mother.]]
* AllForNothing: He and Dewey answer Fethry's call expecting that he made a scientific discovery. After numerous near-fatal encounters, one of which where he [[ItMakesSenseInContext kisses a mutated deep-sea tube worm]], they are greatly disappointed when it turns out that Fethry's discovery is just bioluminescent krill, even more so when Fethry explains that he is not a scientist as assumed.
* ArbitrarySkepticism: In "Terror of the Terra-firmians!", Huey doesn't believe that the title creatures exist, despite all the unbelievable things he sees when adventuring. Webby calls him out on this. This is actually foreshadowed in the pilot, where he gushes about Scrooge finding out the Chupacabra was just a shaved bear, implying he believes all of the supernatural and mystic to have a logical explanation.
* BadLiar: Going with his more upstanding personality he is shown to be a very bad liar, almost as bad as Webby.
-->'''Donald:''' ''[suspiciously]'' Where's Dewey?\\
'''Louie:''' Sleeping!\\
'''Huey:''' [[ImplausibleDeniability Who's Dewey?]]
* BerserkButton: Although he's nice and mild-mannered most of the time, Mark Beaks [[spoiler: first choosing him over Dewey as an intern, but then employing Dewey as his superior]] breaks his patience and sends him into a rage fit not unlike his Uncle Donald tends to throw. Later, [[spoiler:when a boss character ruins his carefully cultivated farm plot in ''Legends of Legendquest'', he goes so berserk fighting it that Della has to physically pry him away from the keyboard in the real world to get him to stop]].
* BigBrotherInstinct: With being the TeamDad, Huey looks out for Dewey, Louie, and Webby.
* BigNo: When Donald accidentally destroys the water show that Huey had become enamored with in "The House of the Lucky Gander!".
* CallingTheOldManOut:
** He hits his RageBreakingPoint when Scrooge wants to reach the top of Mount Neverrest with limited supplies, in freezing weather that would kill them, and navigate dangerous terrain. He calls him out for risking their lives recklessly.
** After Scrooge tells the kids [[spoiler:about Della and the Spear of Selene, the boys are understandably angry at their uncle for building a rocket that would allow their mother to go to space while she was expecting and for not doing anything to save her. The truth is quite different, but Scrooge is taken aback by their accusations and loses his temper, causing things to escalate.]]
* CantTakeCriticism: In "Timephoon", after Huey continually complains how Bubba's behavior does not align with his anthropological research on caveducks, Dewey finally suggests that Huey's research is wrong. Huey's response to this is to start LaughingMad and insist ''Bubba'' is the one who is wrong.
* CharacterExaggeration: Of the triplets, he's the one whose character most resembles their shared personality in the comics, particularly Don Rosa's interpretation of them: he's an upbeat, helpful and generally morally-upstanding guy (who nevertheless isn't above the occasional delve into mischief), he's a clear SmartGuy who values knowledge, history, and research, and he's a dedicated and hyper-resourceful Junior Woodchuck. However, compared to the Nephews' comic counterparts, these traits have been exaggerated to comical and {{Adorkable}} extremes.
* CharacterTics: Huey tends to clench his fists/arms together.
* ChildProdigy: Thanks to the JWG and his scout activities, Huey's become quite proficient in a number of fields from customer service to battlefield tactics to trapping to even advanced robotics!
* ColorCodedCharacters: With his brothers and Webby; Huey is associated with red.
* ControlFreak: Has a very high opinion of his own planning and organizational skills, and gets testy if others don't fall completely in line with his plans and checklists. He also has a tendency to micromanage when he's put in charge of things, needing everything to be ''perfect'' by his standards (see: "[=McMystery=] at [=McDuck=] [=McManor=]"). He has also at one point expressed a desire for his brothers to just blindly obey him.
** This even applies to his own life - he tends to fall back on the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook for guidance, and holds its entries as the highest authority on how things should be done.
* CreativeSterility: In "A Nightmare on Killmotor Hill!", his dream is just himself having comically long legs that make him the tallest triplet, in contrast to Dewey creating an entire high school setting revolving around himself and Louie transforming himself into a cat in a mansion. When Dewey points out how lame this is, Huey protests he's not good at using his imagination.
* DidNotThinkThisThrough:
** The boys try to start a pillow fight with ''Webby''. Huey even asks why they thought it was a good idea.
** Huey teaching the Beagle Boys scout skills that could be used against him and his brothers at a later date.
* DistressedDude: At the climax of "Terror of the Terra-Firmians!".
* DivergentCharacterEvolution: Averted, he's the closest the triplets are to their original portrayal (down to even having the same outfit as the classic triplets), whereas Louie and Dewey are diverged in personality & fashion.
* DoWrongRight: In "Day of the Only Child!" The Beagle Boys' traps to catch Huey are poorly constructed, so Huey decides to help them make better traps, reasoning that if he's going to get captured, he might as well be captured ''properly''.
* DubNameChange: He's called Billy in the Russian dub.
* TheDutifulSon: {{Downplayed|Trope}}. He's the most responsible of the triplets but will go along with their mischievous actions.
* EmbarrassingFirstName: Hubert.
* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Two moments in "Woo-oo!".
** Cooks Donald breakfast and starts to iron his suit for his job interview, showing how responsible and helpful he is. He's also involved with Dewey and Louie's plan to sneak off to Cape Suzette in the houseboat while Donald is away, demonstrating that [[NotSoAboveItAll he's not above getting mischievous]]. However, unlike Louie, [[BadLiar he's not as good at covering his tracks about it]].
** During their gush about Scrooge's adventures in the beginning, each sibling shares what they've heard of his tales, and what they admire most about him. For Huey, it was Scrooge uncovering the truth about the Chubacabra, showing his admiration for wit and mysteries. It also foreshadows his AgentScully behavior as he's quick to note the Chupacabra was just a shaved bear.
* FlatEarthAtheist: He refuses to believe in Terra-Firmians because they're not in the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook, but readily admits that most of the stuff they've encountered in the adventures they have with Scrooge aren't in the Guidebook either and has been adding entries for them himself.
* FreakOut: He has a brief one when, after getting an internship he earned fair and square, [[spoiler:Mark Beaks makes Dewey a VP for no other reason than his stylish briefcase and then makes Huey work for him.]] This deeply offends the eldest triplet's sense of hard work and fair play, and causes him to ramble in an increasingly frustrated manner, throw papers around, and start wrecking an edible desk. Lampshaded by Dewey:
-->'''Dewey''': Oh, no. Huey's broken!
* FreudianTrio:
** With his brothers, he plays the Superego to Louie's Id and Dewey's Ego, being the most responsible and academically smart.
** In "Terror of the Terra-Firmians", he continues playing the Superego to Webby's Id and Lena's Ego.
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Forms this with his brothers and Webby, he is the Melancholic (analytical and organized).
* GreatBigBookOfEverything: The Junior Woodchuck Guidebook, and oh so very played with. [[spoiler:Huey flat-out admits in Terror of the Terra-Firmians that if the guidebook lacks anything, he adds it personally.]]
* HairTriggerTemper: Much less to the explosive extent of his uncle, but still there. Huey inherited Donald's [[spoiler: and his mother's]] temper, and while he's usually very together he's easily frustrated and the most likely of the triplets to get bristly and stern. While Dewey responds to tense situations with excitement and Louie with panic, Huey tends to respond with (controlled) anger - and in the cases where he ''can't'' control it, he can explode just like his uncle after all.
* HeKnowsTooMuch: In "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks!", after Huey and Dewey find out the truth about Project Tah-Dah, Beaks fires them, reasoning he can ruin their potential credibility by giving them a reason to hold a grudge.
* HeroicBSOD: [[spoiler:The boys are so depressed after moving out of the mansion after the events of "The Last Crash of the Sunchaser!" that Donald tries to rally them by suggesting they move to Cape Suzette. Donald looks extremely guilty when Louie reluctantly loses his Egypt adventure trinket and wants to dive back into the water to save it.]]
* HiddenDepths:
** Despite more or less being the OnlySaneMan when in regards to his brothers and Webby, in "Terror of the Terra-Firmians!", it's revealed that Huey is ''deathly'' afraid of the unknown, hence his reliance on his Junior Woodchuck Guidebook.
** For all of his academic smarts and dutifulness, Huey has a ''very'' volatile temper when pushed to the breaking point. [[FatalFlaw To the point where he's willing to just stand by and watch Falcon Graves throw Mark Beaks off a building]].
** In "The Secret(s) of Castle [=McDuck=]!" Huey is able to pluck out notes on a bow because he's first chair cello in the Junior Woodchuck Philharmonic Orchestra.
* HypocriticalHumor: He refuses to believe in anything that isn't in the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook, until he adds it there himself. Hilariously there ''are'' plans for a Sasquatch trap in the book.
* IResembleThatRemark: When Lena mocks the triplets for being "exactly the same", Huey, Dewey, and Louie all protest that claim... [[SpeakInUnison all at once in the exact same way]].
* IdenticalTwinIDTag: Triplet ID Tag, in this case; he wears a red polo shirt and is the only one of the triplets to still wear a baseball cap.
* InsaneTrollLogic: "It only exists if it has an entry in the Junior Woodchuck's Guidebook, because if something isn't in the Guidebook I can add an entry for it."
** He believes that Isaac Newton got his scientific breakthroughs from the JWG.
* InSeriesNickname: His persona when he hits a RageBreakingPoint, being such a contrast from his usual calm-and-collected nature, is often referred to as "the Duke" (mostly by Dewey, but once by himself). (The title coming from the incident where, in the midst of his first major on-screen temper tantrum, he sarcastically called himself "the Duke of Making a Mess.")
* InsufferableGenius: Downplayed in that he isn't a ''genius'', but is rather book smart. In "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks", he scoffs at the idea of Dewey succeeding in the business world. In "Timephoon", he has a mental breakdown when he meets Bubba and discovers that all of the research he had done on caveducks wasn't wholly accurate.
* {{Irony}}: Each of Scrooge's traits that the triplets expressed admiration for in the first episode become sources of anger towards him upon learning the truth of [[spoiler:Della's disappearance:]] Huey, who admires Scrooge's intelligence and wisdom, can't believe Scrooge [[spoiler:didn't account for the dangerous variables of the cosmic storm and order Della to turn back instead of trying to guide her through it (although given Scrooge's comment that she was stubborn, it's implied he did try to talk her down only to be ignored).]]
* ItRunsInTheFamily:
** Each of the siblings inherit a trait from Scrooge. Huey enjoys solving mysteries and uses intelligence above all else, much like Scrooge. He also has his work ethic, and sense of fairness. However, unlike Scrooge, Huey is shown to struggle with going with the flow and adapting to a situation when things don't go according to plan.
** In "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks", he also shows some of his Uncle Donald's traits, namely his resentment about his BoringButPractical work being taken for granted by his peers and loved ones, and [[spoiler:when Dewey gets promoted by Mark Beaks for doing nothing, he dissolves into a meltdown of resentment-driven UnstoppableRage that would probably make Donald both proud, worried, and guilty]].
* JerkassBall: Grabs it in "[=McMystery=] at [=McDuck=] Manor", where he forces his great-uncle to attend a birthday party, even when it's clear Scrooge is only there because Huey begged him to and has completely refused to partake in any party games. His obsession with throwing a great party for his uncle also irks his little brothers when he refuses to call either Beakley or the police for help when Scrooge is kidnapped.
* TheLeader: A per usual he's the leader of the nephews and Webby, due to being the oldest and his knack for quick thinking and organization.
* LethalChef: Heavily implied in the pilot. His attempt at cooking Donald a big good-luck breakfast of fried egg and fish ends with the fish 'leaking' a rather unpleasant looking green substance and the egg yolk oozing over the whole thing. Donald, naturally, is not incredibly eager to eat it.
** Justified as Donald is implied to not let the boys cook, and/or it was possibly deliberate with how quickly Huey threw away the breakfast he made that it was to shoo their uncle out for their plan.
* LikeBrotherAndSister: WordOfGod has stated that this is as far as Huey (or, any of the triplets) will go with Webby. NoHuggingNoKissing (though Webby has excitedly hugged Huey once), they'll be strictly friends only. Of the triplets, his relationship with Webby tends to stray into VitriolicBestBuds territory, due to Huey being more practical and safety conscious.
* LikeParentLikeChild: A prequel comic reveals that [[spoiler:Huey's mother Della had an archaeologist side, and showed the same passion for knowledge and discoveries.]] He and [[spoiler:his mom]] are also the eldest of their siblings.
** "What Ever Happened To Della Duck?!" reveals that his mother was also a Junior Woodchuck [[spoiler:and still brings the guidebook on all of her adventures.]]
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Along with Louie. Dewey and Webby haven't told them anything about Della or their investigation into her disappearance for most of the first season. Averted as of "The Secret(s) of Castle [=McDuck=]!", when Dewey finally confesses.
* LovableCoward: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed.]] While Huey is smart and usually brave, he can be crippled by [[NothingIsScarier fear of the unknown]], as shown in "Terror of the Terra-firmians!".
* MeaningfulName: Hubert means "bright mind" when translated from German. With his knowledge and optimism, Huey's mind is "bright" for two reasons.
* {{Nephewism}}: Huey and his brothers have been raised and cared for by their Uncle Donald all of their lives.
* NeverMyFault: In "Sky Pirates...in the Sky!", after Dewey explains why he ran off, Huey tries deflecting any blame for it by claiming that Dewey has poor communication skills. Scrooge promptly nudges him to make him stop and apologize.
* NiceGuy: Huey is thoughtful, friendly, and sweet.
* NiceHat: He's the only one of the triplets who still wears a baseball cap (red, of course) as they did in the original series and other media. It's explained in "The Depths of Cousin Fethry!" that he does it based on a claim from the Junior Woodchuck Guide - "a warm head breeds warm, healthy thoughts."
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Subverted in "[=McMystery=] at [=McDuck=] [=McManor=]!"; Scrooge thanks Huey for the party because it [[spoiler:called Duckworth back from the dead]], who rescued Scrooge and gave all his enemies a right scare, in case they ever thought to try and enter the mansion again. But he and [[spoiler:Duckworth]] warn Huey to never host a party again.
* NiceMeanAndInBetween: Of the triplets, Huey is the "Nice" one, as he is the most responsible and usually the first to point out a rash plan.
** In notable circumstances, he can switch places with Dewey as being the "In-Between" guy.
*** "Daytrip of Doom!" has Huey and Louie both, at first, think Webby as being too socially awkward to join them on their trip. Dewey is the only one of the triplets who's willing to invite her to tag along.
*** "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks!": After Mark Beaks is revealed as a fraud, [[RevengeBeforeReason Huey is all up for letting Falcon Graves toss the jerk off the building.]] Dewey is the one who says they have to intervene. Also, while not unjustified, Huey is revealed to have the most volatile temper of his brothers when pushed to breaking point.
* NonActionGuy: He and Louie are this, while Dewey and Webby are ActionHeroes.
* NotSoAboveItAll: While Huey is much more book smart, responsible, and polite than his brothers and Webby, his status as such has also resulted in him acting prideful, stubborn and slightly condescending:
** Huey's first EstablishingCharacterMoment shows that he's still just as mischievous and scheming as Dewey and Louie.
** "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks!" reveals that he's the one who inherited his Uncle Donald's volatile temper.
* NothingIsScarier: His greatest fear is the unknown.
* ObsessedAreTheListmakers: His ControlFreak tendencies lets him have checklists to go with his organization/planning, most prevalent in "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks!".
* OhCrap: His reaction to finding out the lengths the Beagles are willing to go to "protect" him in "Day of the Only Child!".
* OnlySaneMan: Out of all the triplets, his cautious and responsible nature results in him being the one most likely to play this role. However, several episodes prove that he's NotSoAboveItAll. In "The Impossible Summit of Mount Neverrest" [[spoiler:he plays this to Scrooge as his quest to reach the frankly impossible summit nearly gets himself and the rest of the expedition killed]].
* OwMyBodyPart: When Webby ambushes Huey during their dart gun game, the scene cuts away and we hear him shout "[[ShotInTheAss Ow, my tailbone!]]"
* {{Pride}}: One of his defining flaws, inherited from Scrooge. Huey will often boast about being a Junior Woodchuck and a lot of the time he will refuse to admit when he is in the wrong.
* RageBreakingPoint: Sometimes, through anger or obsession or both. He has an ''epic'' freakout when Mark Beaks overlooks his hard work in favor of Dewey's flash, and when he thinks Cousin Fethry misled them into a useless adventure, [[LetMeAtHim Dewey has to hold him back from]] ''[[LetMeAtHim throttling]]'' [[LetMeAtHim him.]]
* RevengeBeforeReason: After [[BrokenPedestal Mark Beaks is revealed as a fraud]], Huey is content to just watch Falcon Graves toss the guy off a building. Dewey has to snap him out of this line of thinking.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: Bubba turning out to be wildly anachronistic compared to what Huey ''expects'' a Cave Duck to be like makes his eyes turn red with barely contained rage.
* RedIsHeroic: He's the unofficial leader of the triplets, and wears red.
* RedIsViolent: As the series goes on, he becomes more prone to violent outbursts upon losing his temper, similar to Donald [[spoiler:and Della]].
* SanitySlippage:
** He does not take Mark Beaks making [[spoiler:Dewey]] a VP well ''at all''.
--->'''Dewey''': Oh, no. Huey's broken!
** He becomes frantic about his sewing skills when Louie points out the stripes on his Junior Woodchucks uniform are coming undone, and slowly grows insane when he tries to sew them back on.
* ScienceHero: To Dewey's ActionHero and Louie's GuileHero. Huey admires his uncle Scrooge most for the scientific discoveries he made while adventuring.
* ScheduleFanatic: Plans out an entire itinerary for the group's submarine voyage, which Dewey considers lame.
* ScrewThisImOutOfHere:
** At the end of "The Last Crash of the Sunchaser!", [[spoiler:the boys, disillusioned with Scrooge, ask Donald to move the boat back to the marina.]]
** He attempts this in "The Depths of Fethry Duck!" when he is disillusioned with Fethry and decides to go back to the surface. The arrival of a giant monstrous krill further accelerates the leave for all of them.
** In "Storkules in Duckburg!", he is so livid that Louie can't pay them due to spending all their money on now-useless merchandise that he wordlessly storms out of their bedroom.
** In "The Golden Armory of Cornelius Coot!", the boys immediately decide to leave when it turns out Cornelius Coot's treasure was just corn, despite Webby insisting otherwise.
* ShipperOnDeck:
** The triplets are all interested in Scrooge's relationship with Goldie and tease him about it throughout "The Golden Lagoon of White Agony Plains!", even calling their adventure together a date.
** He's also quick to ship Fenton and Gandra together in "The Dangerous Chemistry of Gandra Dee!", even calling out the MeetCute trope by name in their first interactions.
* SkewedPriorities:
** In "Day of the Only Child!" Huey knows the Beagle Brothers are posing as Woodchucks and plan on kidnapping him... but he sticks with them anyways in order to get a badge.
** In "The Dangerous Chemistry of Gandra Dee!", when Gandra [[spoiler:is revealed to be working with Mark Beaks]], he becomes more worried about Fenton's heart getting broken than the fact that, y'know, [[spoiler:''there's a spy for Beaks in the lab'']].
* TheSmartGuy: The most knowledgeable and resourceful of the triplets. He knows a lot about organization, general trivia, history (well [[EntertaininglyWrong good for a layman]] anyway) and science. His scientific knowledge [[spoiler:proves useful in "The Impossible Summit of Mount Neverrest" where he figures out the wormholes and the nature of the mountain]].
* SpeakInUnison: The triplets do this - albeit unintentionally - after Lena mocks them for being the same.
-->'''Lena''': That's cute, with the names and the color-coded outfits... is that your thing, you're all exactly the same?
-->'''Huey, Dewey, & Louie''': Ha, no way! We're all unique snowflakes... Well, this usually never happens! This is really weird! Okay, stop talking! (beat) {{Antidisestablishmentarianism}}! Seriously?! GAH!
* {{Squee}}: The triplets have this reaction when they find out Donald is taking them to stay at Scrooge's in "Woo-oo!".
* StopHavingFunGuy: When Dewey is enjoying the slides and such at the Waddle office, Huey admonishes him for having fun and insists that they're serious work tools that are there to help with worker productivity. Immediately followed by perhaps the flattest 'whee' ever uttered in television.
* StrongFamilyResemblance: {{Justified|Trope}}. Huey shares a striking resemblance to his brothers because they are identical triplets.
* TeamDad: When it's just him, his brothers, and Webby, Huey tends to act as the surrogate father figure.
* ThrowTheBookAtThem: In the 'Meet Huey' promotional short, Huey knocks out Bigfoot by throwing the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook at him. If you [[FreezeFrameBonus look carefully]], Huey consults the book before throwing it, implying that the guidebook instructed him to use it as a weapon.
* TokenGoodTeammate: Easily the nicest of the triplets and always willing to lend a hand. While he might not be as good as the other two at lying or getting into mischief, he is great at leading the way out.
* UnstoppableRage: In "Happy Birthday, Doofus Drake!", [[spoiler:he completely goes on a [[Anime/DragonBallZ Super Saiyan]]-style rampage after he ranks up all his XP points to defeat a monster that destroyed his crops.]]
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: InUniverse. [[spoiler:When Della returns, she reveals that she wanted Huey's name to be "Jet".]]
* WhatTheHellHero:
** Huey and Dewey are unimpressed with Scrooge's petty show of [[spoiler:stepping over George Mallardy's corpse and mockingly saying that now he's the man who made it the ''second'' furthest up Mount Neverrest.]]
--->'''Huey''': I think the mountain got even ''for'' you!
** During "The Secret(s) of Castle [=McDuck=]!", in a depressing case of RealityEnsues, Huey and Louie finally find out about [[spoiler:Dewey's investigation into their mom.]] They are understandably not happy at being kept in the dark.
** He confronts Louie during "The Most Dangerous Game... Night!", asking him why is so insistent on not going on adventures.
** He calls out Louie for wasting all their money in "Storkules in Duckburg!".
* WhoWritesThisCrap: Asks this while acting out in the Harp-Be-Gone advertisement, which had a really bad type casting (he's the wife, Webby is the husband, and Storkules is their baby child).
* WrongGenreSavvy: He is all too familiar with Locked Room Mysteries, but during "[=McMystery=] at [=McDuck=] [=McManor=]!" he fails to identify the right culprit multiple times. Also, he knows the party should end when the right culprit is revealed, but doesn't know what to do after Nik Nokturne (aka. Black Arts Beagle) is "revealed" as such.
* YankTheDogsChain: In "Timephoon!", he gets extremely frustrated by Bubba contradicting his cave-duck studies and resorts to documenting his behavior under Dewey and Webby's suggestion. After he submits his research to the Junior Woodchucks, it ends up being rejected due to being considered "wildly outlandish".
