Finding that he has been robbed of 87 cents, a sickly Scrooge goes on a rampage to find them. The kids think that he is suffering from gold fever and team up with Launchpad, Gyro, Manny, and Gizmoduck to calm him down. When news spreads that Scrooge died from the fever, a triumphant Glomgold shows up at the funeral and reveals he was the robber. Using Gyro’s Time Teaser – a watch capable of stopping time – he hoped to make Scrooge go crazy and win their bet. With the truth revealed, Scrooge comes out of hiding, having faked his death to trick Glomgold into confessing.
