** Imagine what Della must have felt like: Witnessing both Huey, Dewey, and Webby vanish ''right'' in front of her. While Webby isn't her biological daughter, it still adds a heavy dose of parental fears and the one thing that could have been on her mind was "Not again".

* Glomgold and his "family" attacking [=McDuck=] Manor. There's ''no'' comedy to it (with the exception of Magica kicking Duckworth out with an amulet) and it's played off like a full blown invasion you'd expect to see in a finale. And while it was an EpicFail on Glomgold's plan who didn't even bother checking if the family were in the manor, but had they been, it would have been an example of Glomgold either ''actually'' being a threat, or worse, '''winning'''. It definitely proved that Glomgold was right: When they all worked together, they would have taken down Scrooge and the family!

* Unlike the other family members, Launchpad has been sent to the future, has witnessed '''the end of the world'''. Even if he found it neat, it's still a frightening thought. What's worse is that it's '''[[NothingIsScarier never explained exactly what he saw.]]''' However, he may have been to an alternate timeline during "Moonvasion" where the Moonlanders win or "The Last Adventure" if Bradford had won.

They want [[DarkerAndEdgier “grim and gritty”]], huh? ''[[ThenLetMeBeEvil Happy to play the part]]''! [[EvilLaugh Heh heh heh heh heh...

*** To be fair, it is an attack shark trained by Flinty.

* Still being a new parent, Della's methods of grounding are unintentionally ''sadistic''. She has Gyro reprogram the DT-87 (which has [[AIIsACrapshoot a history of turning evil]]) to fire lasers at any attempts to escape as well as cast laser cages over the exits, records rather cheery lectures about ethics that almost sound condescending and, to top it all off, when family members call Louie to tell him how much he'd love where they are, she stops Huey from describing the scent of the Cherry Pep river to his brother because "He hasn't earned it". It is for his own good, but just ''maybe'' she went ever so slightly too far?

* Remember Tootsie? The [[HerbivoresAreFriendly friendly]], little ''Triceratops'' who was Bubba's [[DomesticatedDinosaurs pet]] in the original series? Here, she is bigger, stronger and overall a ''[[TemperCeratops ferocious]]'' wild animal, attempting to trample anything or any''one'' that gets in her way. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking And she clearly doesn't like Bubba riding on her]].
** Also unnerving is that she is very clearly still a youngster (as she is too small and her horns are too short for a fully-grown ''Triceratops''). This is in stark contrast to the universal perception of young herbivorous dinosaurs as cute and non-threatening, which was how the original Tootsie was portrayed. It also implies that an adult ''Triceratops'' is ''even scarier''.

** Della walking into the triplet's bedroom to search for Louie out of worry, only to see him and Launchpad return from their trip through time on Gyro's time tub. Pretty soon, Della is smouldering with fury as she realizes who was responsible for the storm and snarls her youngest son's name.

** He is actively trying to kill Drake. He shocks him, blows him up, and at one point has a chainsaw ready to cut him to pieces. If Drake weren't as tough and scrappy as he was he would have been dead.

* Mark Beaks becomes Mega Beaks, a muscular giant, and he is [[NotSoHarmlessVillain surprisingly terrifying]] as he intends to kill Fenton.

** In addition, unlike ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk, Beaks remains himself and is completely in control of his actions while he is in his monstrous form. This means Beaks wanted to kill Fenton even before he turned into a monster and simply lacked the means to do so.

* Donald accidentally gets launched into space. He can't pilot the rocket and doesn't have the proper equipment with him. And it implies he's about to land on the Moon, [[OhCrap in the middle of the Moonlanders planning their invasion.]] Worst of all his family thinks he's on a ''month long'' cruise. They probably won't even realize that he's missing before the month is up, and by then it's likely the trail will have gone cold.

** Penumbra was antagonistic from the start so it's not so bad on her end, but there is something unsettling about Lunaris, who appeared to be a NiceGuy to contrast with her, suddenly [[BitchInSheepsClothing sound sinister, with darker shadows cast upon him.]]

* If Dewey had told Young Donald and Della about the future, what exactly could have happened? Could Della have ended up facing an even worse fate than the one she already had? Would Donald be the one to vanish? Would something even worse happen? Honestly, it is for the best that the kid twins stopped him when they did.

* The town's flower is a giant ManEatingPlant attempting to devour the Duck family, and the townspeople were puppets on its vines. The plant has a very unsettling design with [[EyesDoNotBelongThere eyes at the end of its vines]]. Worse, it is [[ItCanThink intelligent enough]] to control realistic-looking puppets, even speaking a few sentences, as well as come up with a fake festival and invite people from abroad to it so that it can eat them!

** Imagine what Della must have felt like: Witnessing both Huey, Dewey, and Webby vanish ''right'' in front of her. While Webby isn't her biological daughter, it still adds a heavy dose of AdultFear and the one thing that could have been on her mind was "Not again".

* The final scene. Though everyone believes him missing or dead, Jim's hiding in the sewers, seething as he convinces himself that the whole mess was a conspiracy to steal his spotlight. All the while, his voice gets huskier and more deranged, the dye bleeding out of his costume. Then he turns to face the camera to reveal a rather unnerving NightmareFace - eyes swirling with madness, teeth now sharp fangs, sporting a SlasherSmile as he begins cackling about embracing a DarkerAndEdgier role. But [[WhamShot the crowning shot]] has to be his costume - the purple hues of Darkwing Duck are gone, leaving an all-too-familiar yellow, red, and black. We have just witnessed the birth of '''''Negaduck'''''.

* Unlike the other family members, Launchpad has been sent to the future, has witnessed '''the end of the world'''. Even if he found it neat, it's still a frightening thought. He may have even been to an alternate timeline during "Moonvasion" where the Moonlanders win or "The Last Adventure" if Bradford had won.

* Remember Tootsie? The [[HerbivoresAreFriendly friendly]], little ''Triceratops'' who was Bubba's [[DomesticatedDinosaurs pet]] in the original series? She is none of that here. She is now bigger, stronger and overall a ''[[TemperCeratops ferocious]]'' wild animal, attempting to trample anything or any''one'' that gets in her way. [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking And she clearly doesn't like Bubba riding on her]].

* Magica hasn't given up on Lena yet: she's been actively tormenting her by creating nightmares for her every time she falls asleep, and has been doing so for days. What's worse, is that there's ''nothing'' even remotely suggesting the outside influence, meaning that hadn't Magica exposed herself, she would keep doing that until Lena breaks. Said nightmares include Magica tempting Lena to come back to her (and when it doesn't work, hunting her down Hitman-style), everything cheerful and lighthearted turning nightmarish, full of black-purple color scheme, ending with Lena's biggest fear: becoming second Magica. And it almost works.

* Unlike the other family members, Launchpad has been sent to the future, has witnessed '''the end of the world'''. Even if he found it neat, it's still a frightening thought. He may have even been to an alternate timeline during "Moonvasion" where the Moonlanders win.

* Whoever becomes the richest duck in the world gets chased by the Bombie, essentially a RevenantZombie that is [[ImplacableMan indestructible and impossible to stop]]. His appearance is already quite scary with his hulking physique, scarred grey skin and color-inverted eyes, but what makes him really terrifying is how he {{No Sell}}s Louie's and Owlson's attempts to stop him.

* [[AssholeVictim Even if he deserved it]], the fact that Lunaris is now stuck inside his broken-down ship for all eternity, with the fact that it's perpetually revolving around the Earth like a moon being the definition of an IronicHell for him.

** She might be also attempting to eat the Ducks; paleontologists now believe that ''Triceratops'' may have occasionally included small animals in its diet, just as hippos do today.
