# **Huey**

Huey is a smart "by the book" guy (specifically the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook). Huey is an intelligent, analytical, and precarious boy scout. Huey is the most responsible out of the triplets but he still can be wild with them. Huey also comes off as "*nerdy*" as he is shown to enjoy science; in discovery, books, modern inventions and more. His own brother, Louie. has called him nerdy yet he is proud of it, shown in "Terror of the Terra-firmians!" and in later episodes such as "Challenge of the Senior Junior Woodchucks!".

Huey is a down to earth and loves being a junior woodchuck. Huey is a duck of logic and rational explanation as shown in "Terror of the Terra-firmians!". He chooses to believe in logic and science than mythology. He loves to find a logical solution in an illogical situation. While Huey can be considerate, he has his moments of being conceited. Huey takes great pride in his intelligence, organization skills, and his Junior Woodchucks trained skills; which lead him to believe that he is usually correct and or the best about most things which show in "McMystery at McDuck McManor!", "Terror of the Terra-firmians!", and "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks!" and when anyone doubts his intellect he gets easily offended, this is seen demonstrated in "The Living Mummies of Toth-Ra!".

Huey is also very inquisitive with things he doesn't know too much about and yearns to know more. This is shown in "The Spear of Selene!", once he meets Zeus he is very excited and wishes to learn more about his powers.

Huey is a brave and compassionate person (duck). He is always there to help others, especially his family. This is well shown in "Storkules in Duckburg!" when him and Webby help save everyone at Funsos Fun Zone from the harpies. He also shows a lot of love and appreciation for others; for example, his uncle, Donald.

Huey loves to reach his goals with well-structured checklists because he likes to be in control of the situation. In general, Huey loves checklists as shown in "Storkules in Duckburg!".

Although, while Huey can be level-head, he becomes unstable when things don't go the way he planned, usually responding with anger and/or anxiety. His anger as show in "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks!", when Dewey had gotten the internship over himself (This was also shown in The Impossible Summit of Mt. Neverrest! where Huey snapped at Scrooge for being too stubborn to turn around) and his anxiety as shown in "The Most Dangerous Game...Night!", when one of his uniform stripes came loose, and he thought he was losing his skills. It was also shown in "Terror of the Terra-firmians!" when Huey is afraid of when something bad happening.

Yet, Huey can bring himself back to being calm and rational, to figure out the problem given to him. Intelligent, confident, brave, kind and talented, Huey will take charge in any adventure no matter how dangerous or ridiculous it gets.

# **Dewey**

Dewey is the daring, attention-seeking adventurer of the trio. He loves to explore and do bold and exciting things to stand out, get noticed and have fun. Dewey can be impulsive; he can't sit still too long before jumping into action, often without thinking it through. Dewey desires to stand out as his own individual among his brothers, by trying to impress all those around him by doing big extraordinary things.

Dewey is shown to be compassionate, which shows when he stands up for Webby when everyone was hesitant in "Daytrip of Doom!" He offered to save Mark Beaks even after learning he was a fraud. Dewey can be sensitive; he is easily insulted as seen in "The Infernal Internship of Mark Beaks!" when Huey admits to thinking of Dewey as irresponsible and not serious enough to be successful. This shows that Dewey is also a bit insecure. Dewey is also very emotionally attached to his mission to learn about his long-lost mother, Della. to a point that he wants to learn more about her but is afraid of what the answers may be as shown in "The Spear of Selene!". Dewey is so eager to know what happens to his mother that he is willing to risk his own life just to know the truth of his mother he never knew, as shown in "The Last Crash of the Sunchaser!".

In "The Secret(s) of Castle McDuck!", Dewey claims that his brothers will be hurt if they find out about their mother, but in the truth, Dewey wanted to keep it for himself to feel special. Dewey shows to make a facial expression of his own ego. Confronted, Dewey realizes he has been selfish for doing this.

With his ambitious and quick-thinking personality, Dewey wants to prove himself. And sees himself becoming big like his Great-Uncle Scrooge, he is eager to show his skills in their adventures. Dewey tends to remind Donald and Scrooge of his mother.

# **Louie**

As been described as the 'evil' triplet, Louie is a laid-back, resourceful trickster and is he is always up for an adventure with his family especially if it involves treasure. Louie can be very greedy, and like his great uncle Scrooge, he's got an eye for money and treasure. Although Louie has shown a lazy and careless personality, he can also be adventurous and caring at times.

Louie is a schemer, with his confidence, clever quick thinking, and persuasive charm he manipulates others to get want he wants, as seen in "Daytrip of Doom!" and in "The Great Dime Chase!". With this, Louie can be seen with a con-artist persona.

Louie is very often the snarky, witty, and sarcastic one of the triplets as seen in "The Most Dangerous Game...Night!" where he pointed out to Scrooge how every treasure would end in the same way with being amazed but later would lead to more danger because of the booby trap that every treasure they'd found had. Other examples being in "Woo-oo!", where he criticized both of his brothers for their obvious ignorance; when Donald asked where Dewey was and Huey said: "Who's Dewey?" and being snarky about Dewey's best plan of getting out of a room was to keep hitting the doorknob with a bag of marbles. He even seems to keep his witty nature in the face of danger, such as in "Daytrip of Doom!" where his brothers, Webby, and he were locked in a freezer and was being threatened by Big Time.

Louie can also be very selfish and greedy. Louie does a lot that he knows would benefit him, like receiving money and treasure. Louie believes that most adventures include treasure, but if there is nothing to benefit him, he steps out like in "The Impossible Summit of Mt. Neverrest!" where once he's told there was no treasure on Mt. Neverrest he walks out on the adventure.

Louie has also shown to be inconsiderate, as he's shown to say insensitive things like in "Daytrip of Doom!" where he states they shouldn't have brought Webby to Funzo's right in front of her. And he did the same thing in "The House of the Lucky Gander!" when he calls his Uncle Gladstone their *Best Uncle* in front of his Uncle Donald who has raised him since they were young. Although, Louie later realized how hurtful he was and then cheers them on.

Despite his self-serving nature, Louie cares deeply about his family. In "The Impossible Summit of Mt. Neverrest!" he defends Launchpad after he was conned. And when Donald was racing against his cousin, he encouraged Donald to keep going and not to give up. As well as in "The Other Bin of Scrooge McDuck!" where he was using his scheming to get rid of a deceptive "Tenderfeet" and keep his family safe.

In the episode "The Living Mummies of Toth-Ra!", it is revealed that his cool and slacker attitude is all a facade and that he is a scared little kid who tries to talk himself out of situations, only to get himself into more trouble and acknowledges the error of his actions. This shows that he is insecure and cowardly, and puts up a laid-back bravado as a means to hide his true feelings.
