- Scrooge fighting off the entire crowd of Sumo-Wrestling Scorpions with nothing but his bare hands and his cane. At one point, Webby even helps out!
- The sheer fact Scrooge was willing to stay and take on Merlock, despite now knowing the full extent of his powers.Scrooge: No! We stand our ground!
- The first time Genie actually tries to warn him about Merlock coming after him fails miserably. The moment Scrooge recognizes him in the crowd as the guy who stole Collie Baba's treasure off of him, he tries to make a beeline for him.Scrooge: (furious) It's that backstabbing banshee!

- The first time Genie actually tries to warn him about Merlock coming after him fails miserably. The moment Scrooge recognizes him in the crowd as the guy who stole Collie Baba's treasure off of him, he tries to make a beeline for him.
- Scrooge's first wish, which he does with no hesitation; is to take back Collie Baba's treasure after Merlock looted it. It appears right before him, and for extra Laser-Guided Karma, lands on top of Merlock in his rat form.
- The Genie coming up with a way to save him and Scrooge from Merlock when Scrooge stubbornly refuses to wish them to safety.
- The infiltration of the Money Bin.
- Scrooge's free-falling Final Battle with Merlock over the lamp. Bear in mind, Merlock had transformed into a griffin, and Scrooge is freaking ninety, though he's survived so much one doubts terminal velocity would kill him. The old duck whips out his cane and knocks Merlock's talisman out of his hand — dispelling the shapeshift and returning him to normal thousands of feet in the air — which sends the sorcerer hurtling to his doom.
- Genie also gets one when he catches up to Scrooge and demands he makes a wish before they hit the ground. The previously hesitant Scrooge doesn't even bother to protest.Genie: This time, you HAVE to make a wish!
Scrooge: Aye! I wish me, and my family, and my bin, were back in Duckburg! RIGHT NOW! (poof!)
- Genie also gets one when he catches up to Scrooge and demands he makes a wish before they hit the ground. The previously hesitant Scrooge doesn't even bother to protest.

- Mixed with Funny Moment, Scrooge catches Dijon stealing from his money bin, adding on to the many other double-crosses he committed throughout the movie. The film ends on Scrooge chasing the terrified pickpocket through the streets swearing to wring his neck.Dijon: But it's only some loose change!Scrooge: I'll change your face, you THIEF!!!
