Recap / Duck Tales Attack Of The Fifty Foot Webby

Webby, who has been feeling overlooked, ends up becoming a giantess after falling into a mysterious pool in the jungle. While she is now the center of attention, she does not like it very much. While Scrooge searches for a way to reverse the process, a corrupt circus owner seeks to kidnap Webby for his new sideshow.

This episode contains examples of the following tropes:

• Answer Cut: When Scrooge and the boys realize that Webby is missing, Scrooge worries over what terrifying thing could be happening to her. It then cuts to Webby with Mr. Fuzzy having a nice tea party.
• Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever: Webby, after becoming a giant.
• Be Careful What You Wish For: Webby longs to be noticed as she feels like nobody pays any attention to her. She gets a hell of a lot more than what she bargained for when she transforms into a giant.
• Chekhov's Skill: When Bubba and the boys were playing Hide and Seek at the beginning of the episode, Bubba demonstrated a keen sense of smell. Scrooge utilized this in his attempt to find the long-tailed gorilla, and later on, Webby.
• Foreshadowing: Webby encountering a dragonfly as big as her is a hint there's something out in the jungle making things grow gargantuan.
• Great Big Book of Everything: As usual, the Junior Woodchuck Guidebook has ridiculous knowledge, this time being the formula to shrink Webby.
• "King Kong" Climb: When Mr. Fuzzy gets spooked and climbs a tall building, Webby climbs up after him and they end up on the top. Unfortunately, it can't support their weight and starts to break. Fortunately, Dr. Von Swine manages to shrink them in time, allowing them to be caught safely when they reach the ground.
• Shout-Out: When the Beagle Boys get in their gorilla disguises, Burger exclaims, "hey hey, we're the monkeys!"
• Unknown Rival: Scrooge and the boys never learn of Happy Jack and his attempts to kidnap Mr. Fuzzy or Webby.
• Witch Doctor: Dr. Von Swine mentions he encountered one that created a potion that could shrink anything^note mostly used for heads, unfortunately, the witch doctor hasn't spoken to him since Von Swine accidentally dropped some formula on his big toe^note now his little toe.
• You Don't Want to Know: According to Huey, the attempt to play soccer with the gigantic Webby is something that shouldn't be asked about.
  Huey: (Holding up a flattened soccer ball) Bubba's still recovering.
