Darkwing Duck (1991–1992) was an animated series produced by Disney Television Animation for ABC and for syndication as part of The Disney Afternoon. It follows Drake Mallard (a.k.a. Darkwing Duck, a costumed vigilante in the city of St. Canard), his daughter Gosalyn, his sidekick and pilot Launchpad McQuack, and occasionally boy-next-door Honker Muddlefoot as they fight to protect the city and sometimes the world from supervillains such as the Fearsome Five and criminal organizations such as F.O.W.L. (the Fiendish Organization for World Larceny). Originally a spinoff of DuckTales, the show was an affectionate parody of superhero and spy media, and focused on comedy and action.

Season 1 (Disney Afternoon)
Darkly Dawns the Duck, Part 1 [1.01]
- Darkwing Duck: [first line of series] This is the city of St. Canard. Like any other major metropolis, it has its problems with the criminal element.
- Darkwing: [To policeman] Another order of dastardly delinquents delivered on your doorstep, courtesy of Darkwing Duck! That's two words, not three; both D's capitalized. Here's my photo. If the papers need more glossies my number's on the card. [chuckles]
- Darkwing: I thought this was the age of media glut! Where's the Action News van when you need them? ...and I spent all afternoon ironing this cape.
- Darkwing: [gets smashed by his refrigerator in his kitchen obstacle course] I always forget the milk.
- Taurus Bulba: Let me understand this, Hammerhead... you and your "associates" are questioning my plan?
- Hammerhead: Gee, boss, no... well, sorta. The boys and I were wondering if we couldn't wait until the train stops before we steal the Ramrod!
- Taurus Bulba: Ohhhhhhhh, you mean after the army takes control of the weapon with its tanks and jeeps and hundreds of guards! [snorts angrily]
- Hammerhead: I guess we didn't think of that! [to Hoof and Mouth] Why didn't you think of that?!
- Taurus Bulba: [grabs Hammerhead by the neck] Because I am the brains and you are the stooge!
- Hammerhead: [wheezing] That's it, boss. I'm a stooge. Just call me Curly! [chokes]
- Warden: Bulba, I trust you're still enjoying your stay in prison?
- Taurus Bulba: It's peaceful. No one bothers me. Actually, it suits my business needs perfectly.
- Darkwing: [watching Taurus Bulba's condor through binoculars] I know birds fly south for the winter, but this is the first one I've seen with luggage!
- [Darkwing crashes throught the roof of Launchpad's hanger.]
- Darkwing: Bruised, battered, but never defeated, Darkwing Duck springs back into action! [pops his back] Clever of me to use my spine to break my fall like that.
- Launchpad: [first line] Hold it right there, you pirate! Nobody messes with the airplanes in my hangar, or my name isn't Launchpad McQuack!
- Launchpad: I have a scrapbook full of all your newspaper clippings! Of course, it isn't a very big scrapbook...
- Darkwing: [nervously] Um, wouldn't it be easier to catch the bad guys if we were flying the other way?
- Launchpad: Oh yeah. [turns plane around forward] Sometimes I have trouble with that...
- Darkwing: [whines] They got away...
- Launchpad: [laughs] Can't argue that point, DW! So what do we do next?
- Darkwing: "We"? "We" do nothing. I work alone.
- Launchpad: But I could be your sidekick.
- Darkwing: Singing cowboys have sidekicks! I rely on me, nobody but me, got that?
- Launchpad: [grabs Darkwing's leg] Please, please, please, please, please...
- Darkwing: [pulls away] Let me make this clear to you: I never want to see you again!
- Launchpad: Okay... so do you want my phone number?
- Taurus Bulba: The Ramrod is useless without the arming code. Unfortunately, someone arranged an accident for Professor Waddlemeyer last year before I could learn it! Go to the St. Canard Orphanage and bring me his granddaughter. She was practically raised in his lab. If anyone knows the code, she does. After we get the code, then she can have an accident [laughs] like her grandfather. I trust you can get the order right this time!
- Hammerhead: No problem. Code first, THEN accident.
- Orphanage Director: You know Gosalyn, and you willingly came to see her?
- Gosalyn: [first line] Comin' through! All right, play it where it lays!
- Gosalyn: Look, I don't know anything about a pig and I was nowhere near the boys' bathroom at the time!
- Gosalyn: [to Hammerhead] After Mom and Dad died, Grandpa was the only family I had in the whole world. But since he's been gone, I've made lots of friends here, so it's not so bad. [sighs] Until adoption day. Seems like I'm always saying good-bye... to someone. You know, I'm not a problem child! Grandpa said I just have a lot of spirit. He says when you're full of spirit, everyone else looks empty. Someday I'll meet somebody who understands that. Then I'll be adopted.
- [Darkwing is trying to find a place besides his hideout for Gosalyn to stay.]
- Darkwing: Where's my phonebook? I'll just find you a hotel or something. [under breath] Maybe the animal shelter has an opening.
- Gosalyn: Well, I suppose I could leave, but then I might let it slip where a certain masked avenger hangs out.
- Darkwing: You wouldn't!
- Gosalyn: [shrugs] Hey, I'm a kid, I'm supposed to be irresponsible
- [After Taurus Bulba bursts out of jail in a giant airship shaped like his head]
- Warden: Guess they been makin' more than license plates.
Darkly Dawns the Duck, Part 2 [1.02]
- Darkwing: A desperate criminal is at large, and terror runs through the streets like a pair of cheap stockings! But it's hopeless! No one gets the drop on Dark-
- Gosalyn: [drops on top of Darkwing] Gosalyn Waddlemeyer! Boy, Darkwing, you gotta work on your narration. They write better stuff on Saturday morning cartoons.
- Darkwing: Oh yeah? Well, how's this? [flips Gosalyn upside down] In a lightning move, Darkwing turns the tables-
- [Gosalyn starts tickling him.]
- Darkwing: -on the t-tiny t-terror... will you stop that! That's no fair tickling...
- Gosalyn: How come you wear a mask?
- Darkwing: Because... there is nothing so terrifying to the criminal mind as the unknown... I am the thing that goes bump in the night! I am the neurosis that requires a five-hundred-dollar-an-hour shrink!
- Gosalyn: You mean you don't take off your mask for anyone?
- Darkwing: That's right. Not no one, not never.
- Gosalyn: What about a really, really, really close friend? [bats eyelashes]
- Darkwing: Well, uh... maybe. Someday.
- Darkwing: What is a Waddlemeyer Ramrod anyway?
- Gosalyn: [recites] It's a trackiospecific device that disrupts gravitational bonds on a molecular level allowing manipulation on a macro scale.
- Darkwing: What does that mean?
- Gosalyn: I dunno. I think it makes things float and stuff. [pulls out a photo] Here's a photo. That's grandpa.
- Darkwing: Looks like you two were close.
- Gosalyn: [sadly] We were. [crosses arms] But he never told me any code!
- Darkwing: Unfortunately, Taurus Bulba doesn't know that. His men will be searching for you, you know. [chuckles] Although if they knew how much spirit you have, they'd probably run the other way.
- Gosalyn: Spirit? [kisses Darkwing's cheek] Thanks, Darkwing!
- Darkwing: Uh, sure...
- Gosalyn: [ten seconds after going to bed] I can't sleep!
- Darkwing: Aw, you just need something to relax you. I know I have a large mallet around here somewhere.
- Gosalyn: This has the suspicious ring of reverse psychology to it.
- Darkwing: [hearing Gosalyn's snore] This kid could wake Elvis...
- Taurus Bulba: Somewhere down there is this Darkwing Duck. I've watched him. I know his weakness. His posing, his flamboyance, the mask and cape! Ha, ha! That hat! It all indicates an ego the size of a small planet!
- [Taurus Bulba is sending Darkwing a message in coded message from his airship.]
- Hammerhead: But boss, what if he doesn't know morse code?
- Taurus Bulba: [laughs] That do-gooder? He probably sleeps with the Boy Scout handbook under his pillow.
- [In Darkwing Tower, Darkwing pulls the Boy Scout handbook out from under his pillow]
- Darkwing: Phew! Sure glad I saved this baby!
- Darkwing: I am the terror that flaps in the night! I am the jailer who throws away the key! I AM-- [notices he is alone] feeling really stupid. Boy I hate it when I'm early. You'd think criminal masterminds would be more punctual.
- Gosalyn: Eat fiber, horn head!
- Gosalyn: [to Taurus Bulba] Darkwing Duck is gonna crush you like a stale corn chip!
- Darkwing: I could have had a life, but no, I chose to be a clown in a mask and cape! All I need are floppy shoes and bozo nose!!!
- Gosalyn: I'm sorry, Darkwing. If they hadn't caught me, you wouldn't have risked your life.
- Darkwing: Gos, before I met you I didn't have a life worth risking.
- Gosalyn: [after the condor drops her and almost lets her hit the ground] And to think, I used to pay money for rides like that.
- Clovis: Mom was right. I should have been a dental hygienist.
- Taurus Bulba: I underestimated you once, Darkwing Duck! This time you simply die!
- Orphanage Director: I'm sorry, Mr. Mallard. Gosalyn's not feeling very well today. And frankly, it appears you've seen better days yourself.
- Drake Mallard: Oh, the bandages? Just a little kitchen accident. I always forget the milk.
- Gosalyn: I thought you were-
- Drake: Ha! Nobody can hurt Dark- uh, Drake Mallard. Besides, I've got to take care of myself, now that I've going to have an adopted daughter to worry about.
Beauty and the Beet [1.03]
- Dr. Reginald Bushroot: [first line] Hey, stop it you guys! Give it back!
- Bushroot: Son of a broccoli! What have I done to myself?
- Bushroot: [sadly] All I wanted to do was make the world a better place to live. Now look at me. I'm a walking salad bar.
- [After a tree rescues Bushroot from the puppy that was chasing him]
- Bushroot: I guess a dog's not a tree's best friend. Wait a minute, you moved! But you can't move! But you did move. I must be losing my mind. I gotta sit down for a moment.
- [A chair-shaped flower sprouts out of the ground.]
- Bushroot: [sits down] Ah, thanks. Oh no, it happened again. A drink? Yes, that's what I need. A drink. [drinks some water through his root-foot] I must have some telepathic link with plants. This is a scientific breakthrough! Yes, that's it! I'm the Doctor Doolittle of the plant world!
- Darkwing: I was soon to discover that the only thing more dangerous than a half-plant, half-duck is a half-plant, half-duck in love.
- Darkwing: [wrapping himself in vines] We're creating the perfect disguise to catch Bushroot!
- Dr. Rhoda Dendron: But that's poison ivy!
- Darkwing: I see. Well, then, that explains this incredible itching sensation. AAAAAH!
- Darkwing: You feel "so sorry" for that villainous vegetable? That, that.. flipped-out, felonious flora?!? I'M the one with the Swiss-cheese cape!
- Bushroot: Ah, what a beautiful bride you are! And with a beautiful blossom like you at my side, the whole world will be green with envy! This is the happiest day of my life! [blows nose]
- Rhoda Dendron: But-- but-- I can't marry you, Dr. Bushroot! I'm a working girl, my career means too much to me right now! Besides, you're a plant, I'm a duck, it'll never work out.
- Darkwing: [waving weedwhacker, which suddenly sputters and dies] It slices! It DICES! It-- runs out of gas...
- Bushroot: Now, who's gonna stop me?
- Darkwing: I am! The terror that flaps in the night! The termite that devours your floorboards! That is to say: Darkwing Duck! [attacks Bushroot]
- Bushroot: Oof!
Getting Antsy [1.04]
- Darkwing: Six burglars, nine car thieves, twenty-one muggers, eleven kidnappers, five international terrorists... [stretches and groans, lies on a gargoyle] ...and a voodoo king with an army of zombies. [yawns] Boy, for such a slow night, I sure am pooped!
- Launchpad: [walking into frame, eating chips] Aww, that's the last of the candy corn chips. Ooh, what'dya say we drop off for a burger or three, DW?
- Darkwing: How could you possibly be hungry?! You've been eating all night!
- Launchpad: Hey, 'ya burn a lot of calories thwarting evil.
- Darkwing: Fine. Lovely. [as the pair march off-screen] I'll bet Tonto never made The Lone Ranger stop for burgers!
- Darkwing: Have I ever told you the story of the little girl, the golf club, and the firing squad?
- Darkwing: Sometimes, being a parent makes crimefighting seem easy!
- Drake: Admission for two adults and two tiny terrorists.
- Darkwing: Phew, if that's Gosalyn, I can't be in a land of giants. I've probably just been...shrunk...to the size...of a...bug. Bleah.
- Hamburger Hippo Waiter: [boredly] Don't shoot. The money's in the register.
- Darkwing: Oh, no, no. I'm not a robber.
- Waiter: You're not a robber?
- Darkwing: No.
- Waiter: You're just some weirdo in a mask?
- Darkwing: Correct. I am just some weirdo in a mask....Hey!
- Miniature Darkwing: [squeaky voice] Look! I'm shrunk! Help! I've been shrunk!
- Gosalyn: (to Launchpad) What did he say? [Launchpad holds Darkwing up to his ear]
- Darkwing: [shrieks squeakily] I'VE! BEEN! SHRUNK!
- Launchpad: Oh, gee, DW, I coulda told you that.
Night of the Living Spud [1.05]
- Bushroot: Never again will I be lonely! Never again will I be told, 'I can't go out with you, you're just a shrub!' I've found the way to obtain the perfect bride! I'm growing my own.
- Bushroot: I can't marry a potato! She's a tuber, and I'm a shrub! Well, they say opposites attract...
- Bushroot: [to a sales girl he has tied up] Which color do you think would look better on my bride? The pink or the blue?
- Sales Girl: Well, what does your bride look like?
- Bushroot: She's a large potato.
- Sales Girl: Then I'd have to go with the blue.
- Duayne: Red taters you can reason with, but Russets... ugh, they's just plain mean!
- Duayne: [dropping off Darkwing and Launchpad at a Hamburger Hippo restaurant] You tell Moe Duayne sent ya, ya hear? [drives off]
- Darkwing: I'll tell him Duayne should be in the loony bin. I just hope we don't run into any more Duayne's at the diner.
- Darkwing: There are no vampire potatoes. Scientists who turn themselves into plants, yes, but vampire potatoes? That's ridiculous!
- Gosalyn: [about the Muddlefoots, who have been turned into zombies and are staring at a blank TV screen] See, see? I told you!
- Darkwing: You see? They're wolfing down potato chips and staring at the TV like zombies. Perfectly normal for the Muddlefoots.
- Gosalyn: But they're watching a test pattern!
- Darkwing: Gooooooood, maybe they can understand the plot!
- Gosalyn: But they've got roots growing out of their heads!
- Darkwing: Binkie insists on buying that newfangled herbal shampoo!
- Gosalyn: Okay, but how do you explain that? [points to Posy coming up behind Darkwing]
- Darkwing: [gulps] I'm sure there's a good explanation somewhere.
- Bushroot: You have stolen the heart of the woman I love! I'm not gonna rescue you, I'm gonna mow you down!
- Darkwing: I get it! You don't say "potato" backwards, you say "potato backwards"!
- Herb Muddlefoot: [about the test pattern] Hey, I seen this movie before!
- [Bushroot is about to destroy Darkwing when Darkwing convinces country rubes that Bushroot is a vampire]
- Bushroot: I'm gonna get you Darkwing Duck. (Runs and gets bazooka) Now you'll pay for taking Posey away from me! (Rednecks wander into the scene)
- Jake: Hey fellers.
- Darkwing: (Grinning) Look, it's the vampire! (Points at Bushroot)
- Bushroot: Vampire? There's no such thing.
- Zeke: Well, we're just gonna see about that. (Lights match) Zack... get the diesel fuel!
Bushroot runs for his life
Apes of Wrath [1.06]
- Darkwing: Forget it, Gosalyn, you're too young to explode.
Dirty Money [1.07]
- Launchpad: [smashing around inside a giant vacuum] This reminds me of my first flight. Actually, of all my flights.
- Darkwing: Singed... but... triumphant.
Duck Blind [1.08]
- Megavolt: [first line] Hmm, nice filament.
- Darkwing: Fortunately, we have a psychological advantage.
- Launchpad: Because we’re sane, and he’s not?
- Darkwing: No, because Megavolt is afraid of me. I've sent him to the electric chair. Twice.
- Darkwing: You can't run forever!
- Megavolt: No, but you can! [zaps the elevator and laughs]
- Darkwing: I am the terror that flaps in the night!
- Megavolt: Happy Flapping!
- Darkwing: You- are not a well person!
- Megavolt: What? And you're normal? "I am the cold sore that stings your lip?" We're definitely talking demented!
- Darkwing: Watch it, buster, or I'll punch out your lights!
- Darkwing: He's using everything but the kitchen sink!
- [Megavolt magnetizes a sink, jumps inside, and flies away in it]
- Darkwing: I stand corrected.
- Megavolt: Lights? Why Darkwing,I've just flashed on how to get out of here!
- Darkwing: [walks out of blindingly bright room] Launchpad, will you please turn on the lights?
- Launchpad: Uh... They are on.
- Darkwing: [crashes into a mannequin] Oh, I see.
- Launchpad: What do you see?
- Darkwing: Nothing. [swallows] Absolutely nothing.
- Megavolt: Have you lost your senses?!?!
- Darkwing: Just one.
- Megavolt: Blast it! YOU'RE HANDICAPPED!
- Darkwing: We prefer the term physically challenged.
Comic Book Capers [1.09]
- Megavolt: [as Big Chief Power Bill] That my assistant, Little Running Gag.
- Darkwing: [as Death Valley Duck] Surrender, Big Chief. You're surrounded by an army of twelve-thousand soldiers. [whispers] That's an old military ploy we call "lying".
- Drake: Launchpad, are you reading my comic book?
- Launchpad: Who, me?
- Drake: Did Hemingway have this problem? No, because he didn't live next door to the Muddlefoots!
- Drake: I'd love to stay and chew the fat, babe...
- Megavolt: Over my dead batteries! Eat amperes, duck!
- Megavolt: Ha! They call me mad! They call me insane! They're right. But I'M running things now!
- Megavolt: Fools left me no choice. Just because I missed paying a power bill or two, they threatened to shut me off... in the middle of the greatest scheme of my career!
- Megavolt: [talking to a lightbulb] Oh, my sweet darling. You're the ampere of my eye!
- Darkwing: Your little game is over, you revolting revisionist! Give it back, so I can finish off the scene where I finish you off!
- Megavolt: Wrong! In the last scene I'm gonna finish you off!
- Darkwing: Sorry pal, this thing's reality-based. You don't stand a chance against me!
- Megavolt: That's what you think, you hackneyed hack! In this edition, I'm now ten times bigger and more powerful!
- Darkwing: No way! Lemme see that. Where?
- Megavolt: Right there.
- Darkwing: What?! What kind of crazy science fiction are you trying to write? In any case, you oughta be twenty times smaller!
- Megavolt: What do you think you're doing?! I'm bigger!
- Darkwing: Have it your way. I can beat you no matter what size shoe you wear.
- Darkwing: Oh, good, saved by my faithful pet, Super Bunny! Wait a minute! Since when did I have a faithful pet named "Super Bunny"?
- Darkwing: Never send a bunny to do a duck's job.
Water Way to Go [1.10]
- Darkwing: A hero does the undoable, risks the unriskable, and thinks the unthinkable!
- Darkwing: If it's oil Steelbeak wants, it's oil he'll get.
- Princess of Oilrabia: My people's oil? Are you crazy?
- Darkwing: Well, maybe a little manic-depressive on weekends... But I'm sane enough to know that a couple of heroes like us can overcome the likes of F.O.W.L. Launchpad, let's get dangerous!
- Launchpad: Did you hear that? He called me a hero!
- Launchpad: I'm coming, DW! I'm coming!
- Steelbeak: Between the firepower of my battlecruiser and this baby [the weather machine], the city'll be throwing out the red carpet toot suite. And to top it off, Darkwing Dodo is somewhere out there, having dinner with Davy Jones!
- Launchpad: Hey, surf's up, DW dude!
- Darkwing: Launchpad, you saved my life!
- Launchpad: Heroes are always saving lives; it's what we do. You might want to save the thanking part, though. There's no place to land!
- Princess of Oilrabia: My people thank you, as do I. With heroes like you, the world is a safer place. Goodbye, my champion.
- Launchpad: Well...you know, DW here is the real hero...
- Darkwing:...Is the luckiest sidekick in the world! 'Bye, Princess. Me and the boss have to be going. Launchpad, I underestimated you. As far as I'm concerned, we're colleagues, brothers in arms.
- Launchpad: You mean it?
- Darkwing: I sure do! From now on, we're one hundred percent equals. (pause) Now get the bags.
- Launchpad: You got it, boss.
Paraducks [1.11]
- Darkwing: Need I remind you about the time with the floor wax, the peanut butter, and my VCR?
- Gosalyn: That was an accident!
Easy Come, Easy Grows [1.12]
- [Drake fingers the money and begins to laugh crazily]
- Launchpad: Gee, do you think something's wrong with him?
- Gosalyn: Nothing a good exorcism wouldn't fix...
- Bushroot: [as a root] No wonder they say money is the root of all evil.
- Darkwing: I am the terror that flaps in the night!
- Bushroot: Stop that guy!
- Darkwing: [chops Bushroot's plants] Ha! Hah! I am the clipper that trims your hedges! I am Darkwing Duck!

Trading Faces [1.14]

- Gosalyn: Really? Can I help?
- Darkwing: No, thank you; I'd rather the equipment remain in one piece.
- Darkwing (in Gosalyn's body): Bottom line, babes, I may be a size two petite, but I'm still me!
- [A policeman pulls Darkwing (in Gosalyn's body) over for driving the Ratcatcher.]
- Policeman: Just how old are you?
- Darkwing: [sheepishly] Old enough to know better?
- Gosalyn: [in Drake's body] When are you two gonna show a little responsibility? You're both grounded for life and your allowance is suspended until further notice! Fun, huh, Dad? Just like the way you yell at me.
- Darkwing: [in Gosalyn's body] I never yell at you like that. [sees car on stairs and gasps] YOU'RE GROUNDED FOR LIFE AND YOUR ALLOWANCE IS SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER--Yow!
- Steelbeak: OK, listen up. Today's lesson is "How to Cook Up a Crisis." First, take one merrily spinning planet. Add one Iggy super rocket to bring it to a stop. Chill one half 'til frozen, while frying the other half like a burger. Bon appètit! [laughs] Oh, by the way, if this little bit of epicurean delight is not to your particular taste, just have the world governments cough up 100 trillion smackeroos, and we'll send you the chicken salad instead.
- Steelbeak: Boy oh boy, did you kids pick the wrong fan club. I gotta tell you, dressing up like Darkwing Doofus is not gonna score you any points around here.
- Steelbeak: What is it with these world leaders, huh? Don't they keep an extra trillion around anymore?
- J. Gander Hooter: High Command must surely realize that 100 trillion dollars is difficult to come by.
- Steelbeak: Hey, read my beak. Tell 'em to raise some taxes. Heh-heh. [to camera] Like they need an excuse, right?

And the future doesn't leave recorded messages by the way; you've got to BE THERE when she rings!

- [Darkwing is fighting Liquidator and Bushroot]
- Stegmutt: I got your change, Darkwing. I'm sorry, are you busy?

- Darkwing: [from beneath it] This is the second most painful moment of my life.
- Stegmutt: What was the first most painful?
- Darkwing: "Put out the Darkwing, put out the Darkwing!"
- Liquidator: Is it Negaduck, or is it Darkwing Duck? SHUSH won't be able to tell the difference!
- Bushrootː What will you do if Darkwing Duck shows up?
- [There is the sound of guns being drawn; the foursome yelp and hit the ground as a massive hole is blown in the wall behind them]
- Negaduckː Something like that. But worse.
- J. Gander Hooterː Four of your very own archenemies have joined forces -- an unusual phenomenon, indeed.
- Darkwing: Four, eight, 326, ha! Numbers don't scare me. Once I catch up to those confounded criminals, their conniving conspiracy will be kaput.
- Launchpad: I'm sorry, DW. I know where I left my keys in here somewhere--
- J. Gander Hooter: Darkwing?
- Darkwing: Negaduck! So you're behind all of this!
- J. Gander Hooter: Who-what-eh... two Darkwings?!
- Darkwing/Negaduck: (in unison) Don't you believe it, J. Gander! This fiend is my archnemesis, Negaduck...! Oh no, you don't! You're the lecherous liar known as Negaduck...! I beg to differ! You're the erroneous executor of evil known as Negaduck...! OOOOH! Would you cut that out?!
- Dr. Sarah Bellum: [cheerfully, bringing massive gun to bear] Well, I guess we'll just have to kill them both!
- J. Gander: Doctor Bellum!
- Dr. Bellum: Just kidding.
- Gosalyn: Stegmutt!
- Stegmutt: Gosalyn!
- Darkwing: Morgana?
- Morgana: Dark.
- Gizmoduck: Hi!
- Darkwing: Morgana, what are you doing here?
- Morgana: Aren't you glad to see me?
- Darkwing: Uh, well... I... yesss, technically...
- Morgana: Oh no. It's too dangerous. I'll leave.
- Neptunia: Are these yours?
- Gizmoduck: Good show! What do you think, Wingy?
- Darkwing: Ah--
- Gizmoduck: Three of us can attack from the front while the other two subversively infiltrate disguised as singing monks. Then, at the appointed hour, Morgana, Stegmutt, and I leap out of the cake, taking the villains by surprise while the others contact the president and get network clearance for our exclusive heroic TV interview with Tom Lockjaw!
- Tom Lockjaw: Hi!
- Negaduckː At the bridge, I planted a tiny crumb of bread from our questionable room service. It should lead Darkwing Duck here right about... now.
- [He opens the door, tripping Darkwing as the latter enters]
- Darkwing: Aaah! [From the ground] You thought I'd never find you...!
- Negaduckː I see you found the crumb. I knew you wouldn't notice the enormous flag.
Just Us Justice Ducks (Part 2) [1.21]
- Neptunia: Hey, Hal. What? What is it? Somebody fell into Devil's Gorge and has a compound fracture of the lower mandible? Well, it's not my fault I can't understand you. Maybe if you had a mouth.
- Liquidator: Triumph now with the Liquidator!
- Bushroot: [on Morgana] Some witch. Doesn't do a bad daisy, though.
- Stegmutt: No, no, no, no, no, I'm not a dinosaur! This is my real nose and glasses, honest!
- Stegmutt: [gasps] You're a villian!
- Quackerjack: [mock-gasps] You're a genius.
- Quackerjack: Troops, attack!
- Megavolt: Eat volts, transistor brain!
- Gizmoduck: My gizmos are akimbo!
- Gosalyn: Dad, you're OK!
- Darkwing: No, I'm dirt. I'm worse than dirt. I'm lower than low. I am not the terror that flaps in the night. [sobbing] I am the self-centered boob who hands over the city at the drop of a dime. I'm a gipnoid, a slug, a spud-motherin' jackanape.
- Launchpad: Aw, c'mon. You're not a slug!
- [Negaduck is about to throw the switch to torture the Justice Ducks, when a commotion begins]
- Megavolt: Out of my way, you weed!
- Bushroot: Who are you calling a weed, plughead?
- Megavolt: You, you dandelion!
- Bushroot: I'll plug your head in a socket!
- Negaduck: Oh, give me just a tiny break!
- [Negaduck bursts in through the door, where the rest of the Fearsome Five are fighting each other]
- All: [gasp] Negaduck!
- Negaduck: I'm trying to have a little fun....IS THERE A PROBLEM OUT HERE?!
- Megavolt: Well, he keeps shorting out the power company!
- Liquidator: That's false advertising!
- Bushroot: His toys are trampling all my plants!
- Quackerjack: Are not, are not!
- [Negaduck pulls out a chainsaw and cuts into the model of St. Canard with it]
- Negaduck: There you go, kids. One empire, four parts. One for each of you. You run it, you do everything!
- Quackerjack: Gee, how generous. [via Mr. Banana Brain] But what about you?
- Negaduck: I get... the loot.
- All: What!?! Why?
- Negaduck: Because I said.
- [Negaduck lifts the chainsaw up again and holds it towards the rest of the Fearsome Five menacingly]
- Bushroot: Ooh, yeah, that makes sense...
- Megavolt: When you put it that way...
- Darkwing: [in an old lady's voice] Flowers for Negaduck.
- Negaduck: I hate flowers.
- Darkwing: Did I say flowers? I meant skulls! [Negs licks his lips in delight] Skulls for Negaduck!
- Negaduck: I'll be right there. This had better be good....
- Darkwing: Did I say skulls? I meant...ANVIL! [slingshots massive anvil through door, into Negaduck] Awww. I dented my anvil. Yep yep yep, ah. The perfect disguise.
- Quackerjack: Well Negaduck can't take all the money, while we do all the work. [via Mr. Banana Brain] It's unfair!
- Megavolt: I'd like to fry his feathers.
- Bushroot: Hey! Why don't we?
- All: Let's kill Negaduck!
- Negaduck: You thought he was me? You were going to kill... ME!?!?!
- Megavolt: No! No! We know it was Darkwing!
- Bushroot: But we were just testing, see?
- Quackerjack: Uh. Did we already kill Darkwing Duck?
- Bushroot: Aah! The ghost of Darkwing Duck!
- Liquidator: He's back!
- Negaduck: Just... GET HIM NOW!
- Darkwing: Justice ducks, assemble!
- Negaduck: Now it's time to say goodbye to all our company!
- Negaduck: Fearsome Five, get over here!
- Liquidator: AAAAAHHHH!!!!! Do not add water!
- Darkwing Duck & Negaduck: ATTACK!!!
- Gizmoduck: That's it! We'll all go on a big date!
- Darkwing: Oops. Missed.
- Liquidator: Oh, no! Not again!
- Darkwing: Light's out, Megavolt! [Quackerjack suddenly appears and attacks Darkwing Duck]
- Quackerjack: [laughs] You said a mouthful!
- Megavolt: This time it's bye-bye!
- Morgana: [trying to turn Liquidator into pudding but missing] You are a slippery one!
- Liquidator: You ain't seen nothing yet!

- Drake: The judge wants to reform Tuskernini, so I'm going to reform him...[pulls lever]...into a pancake. [piano falls on bed]
- Gosalyn: Oh, so we can adopt you after the judge throws you in prison! Unless of course he gives you the chair.
- Drake: ...maybe we should wait 'til he tries something. After all, I've got him right under my bill where I can keep my eye on him. He thinks I'm just some dimwitted fool--Ha!--but as Drake Mallard, I've got the perfect cover!
- [A wrecking ball crashes him through the door.]
- Drake: [slurring] By the way, I booby-trapped the door.

- Darkwing: I don't know where you went, but you'll be sorry you came back!
- Gosalyn: Darkwarrior?
- Darkwing: Oh, perfect, gone five minutes and my own daughter forgets my name. Just like she forgot she was supposed to stay in the Ratcatcher.
- Gosalyn: [looks down, happily] Launchpad!
- Darkwing: Don't change the subject. I have had it with you, young lady. You are grounded for a month.
- Gosalyn: No problem, Dad. That kind of justice I can handle. [hugs him]
- Darkwing: Now don't argue with me. I--[looks slightly confused, hugs Gosalyn back]
- Darkwarrior Duck: Don't you know that all law-abiding citizens are in bed by now?!
Stressed to Kill [1.53]
- Launchpad: Stress Busters says "You should accept the things you cannot change." ....Or is that "Change the things you can't accept"?
- Megavolt: Isn't the fire engine supposed to spray water?
- Quackerjack: Of course not! Then it would be a water engine!
- [Quackerjack and Megavolt are panicking as the city burns around them. Darkwing arrives.]
- Quackerjack: Oh, it's Darkwing Duck!
- Megavolt: We're saved!
- Quackerjack: Oh, quick, do something!
- Darkwing: No problemo.
- Quackerjack and Megavolt: Yay! Hooray!
- Darkwing: After all, if there's one thing a fire's good for...[pulls cape away to reveal wienies in his hand] it's toasting Krazy Kevin's Classic Cocktail Wienies. [puts on headphones and toasts wienies over fire] You guys should try this, really. You'll love them. Mmm, mmm, mmm!

- Darkwing: I know, I know, I'm sorry! I-- I tried to stop her before, but she... wait a minute, you're the villain! I'm not supposed to apologize to YOU! I'm supposed to SMASH you!
- Darkwing: Unfortunately, the only one about to get hurt was someone very important to me: Me.
- Megavolt: That's the trouble with being a villain. The heroes always have to win!
The Haunting of Mr. Banana Brain [1.56]
- Darkwing: There are a thousand stories in the city of St. Canard. Some are mundane, some exotic, some stranger than others. But one thing remains the same: I'm in all the good ones.
- Quackerjack: It's just that sort of talk that drove me out of the toy business and into the loony bin!
- Paddywack: You really are quite mad, aren't you? I like that in a clown.
- Quackerjack: You've got to save me! If I stay here any longer, I'll go crazy!
- Darkwing: 'Go'?
- Quackerjack: Well, you wouldn't hold a little thing like sanity against a guy, would ya? Besides, if we're going to get out of here, we're going to have to team up.
- Darkwing: Team up with you? That's a laugh!
- Paddywack: [offscreen] MWAHAHAHAHA!
- Quackerjack: No, that's a laugh.
- Darkwing: Quackerjack... let's get ridiculous!

- Darkwing (as Christopher Columbus): [repeated line] I claim this India in the name of Spain!
- Darkwing (as Leif Erickson): Not so fast, mister! I was here first, and it's America, not India!
- Darkwing (as Christopher Columbus): Oh yeah? Then why are there Indians here?
- Binky (as an Indian): Look, dear, we're being discovered!
- Megavolt: It would take something pretty big to save you now!
- [Megavolt gets crushed by Columbus's ship]
- Megavolt: [weakly] I guess that's big enough...
- Darkwing (as Neil Armstrong): That's one small step for a man, one... [notices Megavolt crushed under his rocket] ...bad day for that guy.

The Quiverwing Quack [1.61]

- Negaduck: [sarcastically] Ooh, Darkwing Duck! I'm so scared!
- Darkwing Duck: Oh, yeah? Well, you should be! [Negaduck throws the bomb at Darkwing] Eep! [bomb explodes]
- Negaduck: Ha! I'm more afraid of early hair loss!
- Negaduck: Give it up, Duck, I am way too cunning for you.
- Darkwing Duck: Are not.
- Negaduck: Are too! [Negaduck drops a giant safe on Darkwing]
- Darkwing Duck: '...you aren't Public enemy Number one!"
- Negaduck: (Runs to Darkwing while Darkwing was juggling the bombs) WHAT?!? I am too public enemy number one!
- Darkwing Duck: Are not. I'll show you. Here, hold these a second. (Gives Negaduck the bombs and Negaduck starts to juggle them while Darkwing pulls out the public enemies list) See? Right behind Doctor Slug. [Cameo of Megavolt as Public Enemy #3]
- Negaduck: Dr. Slug? He couldn't slime his way out of a paper bag! Give me that! Number two?! THAT DOES IT!!! THIS TOWN IS TOAST!!!!! [bombs explode]

- Negaduck: So, this city wants a public enemy... SHUT UP BACK THERE! I'll show them who's really num-I SAID SHUT UP! Stupid mutts! [Negaduck crashes his getaway truck to a fire hydrant]
- Negaduck: So, St. Canard has a new favorite hero, eh? And a little girl, at that! The perfect target for public enemy number one...
- Negaduck: This oughta keep ya quiet!
- Negaduck: What's the big deal? St. Canard always wanted a tourist attraction. I think the leaning tower of pizza is perfect.
- Darkwing: Oh, dark-bushy. I'm taking you in!
- Negaduck: What is this?! Did I cross a black cat today? I can't waste one sappy hero?!
- Gosalyn Mallard: (as Quiverwing Quack): Give it up, Negadope! Youve been outclassed by Quiverwing Quack!
- Negaduck: Oh, really? [he yanks the rope and sends the little girl over the edge of the St. Canard Bridge while she hangs on for dear life] Not so cocky now, are you Quiverwing?
- Gosalyn: Oh, big deal. I can swim, too, you know. [she almost gets eaten by a shark, but she narrowly escapes the jaws of death at the cost of her Quiverwing Quack hat]
- Negaduck: [laughing evilly] If blowing up St. Canard didn't make me number 1, maybe this will put me over the top.
- Darkwing Duck: Not likely!
- Gosalyn: [crying] See? You never treated me like a hero! You just treat me like your baby girl! [storms out of the room]
- Darkwing: [quietly] Because you are...
- Negaduck: Give it up, duck! I am way to cunning for you!
- Darkwing Duck: You are not!
- NegaduckAre too!
- Negaduck: Too late, Darkwing. You can't save both the girl and the city.
- Darkwing: Au contraire, mon frere! That's just what heroes do best.
- Launchpad: With a little help from a sidekick or two.

- Bushroot: Oh, well. A plant's gotta do what a plant's gotta do!
- Negaduck: Well, whaddya know. It can count.
- Darkwing: My plan, Launchpad, is simple -- not to mention incredibly brilliant, now that I mention it.
- Bushroot: Quackerjack's giving me the creeps. Someone's got to tell him prison's not supposed to be fun.
- Liquidator: [on Quackerjack] "Let the cleansing power of prison life wipe away your cares... and your sanity!
- Megavolt: Look at him. He's nuts. He's out of his tree, completely insane! [pulls out a lightbulb] Isn't he, my wittle bubbwy-wubbwy?

- Megavolt: Zap him!
- Bushroot: Mulch him!
- Liquidator: Slice him and dice him!
- Quakerjack: Tickle him to death! Hahahaha!
- Bushroot: Wait a second! This can't be Darkwing Duck! If it were Darkwing Duck he would've called me mean names like 'Bush-Brain' and 'Melon-Head'!
- Megavolt: I think Bush-Brain is right!
- Quackerjack: Yeah, good thinking, Melon-Head!
- Negaduck: An impregnable stronghold, eh? Heh. I love a challenge. Negaduck can overcome any security system, no matter how formidable! [He shoots a grappling hook up to the prison] Negaduck crushes all obstacles! [He pulls on the rope; a huge stone falls down on him] ...or vice-versa.
- Liquidator: You know, 4 out of 5 dentists recommend that you never bug a supervillain!
- Megavolt: If I don't do something really destructive soon, I'll go nuts!
- Negaduck: I AM MEGA-NEGADUCK! [laughs maniacally]
- Liquidator: [depowered by Negaduck] Tired of being powerless? Need professional help? Caaaall Darkwing Duck!

- [Darkwing and Launchpad's feet are stuck to a conveyor belt and they are headed toward a trash compactor]
- Launchpad: [crying] I guess this is the end, DW... I don't know what to say!
- Darkwing: [sees a spatula] A spatula!

- Gosalyn: [mutters aside to him] Deviltry.
- Darkwing: ...deviltry.
- Darkwing: Okay, okay, so he didn't respect me. So I only started fighting crime in a vain, pitiful attempt to win his approval. So what? ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT?
- Gosalyn: Oh golly gosh nooooo, Dad!
- Darkwing: Of course not! And I'm gonna make him respect me if I have to break every bone in my body!
- Goose Lee: I have read of your adventures. I must say, you have turned out to be Master Lee's greatest... what is the word?
- Darkwing: [eagerly] Pupil, disciple, hope for the future?
- Goose Lee: Disappointment.
- Darkwing: I am the terror that flaps in the night. I am the bubblegum that sticks in your hair! I am Darkwing Duck! [The dragon flips him up into the air.] Perhaps I overdid the terror thing.
- Gosalyn: Yeah, right, Dad. Who'd wanna sit and watch you for half an hour?
Bad Luck Duck [1.65]
- Darkwing: Where's the doctor?
- Launchpad: [sees voodoo guy behind DW] Witch Doctor!
- Darkwing: I don't care, any doctor!
- Negaduck: Hahahahaha! Finally ditched him!
- Darkwing: I am the terror that-- [crashing and coughing in the smoke] all right, who put the banana peel there?
- Negaduck: How nice. It's the terror that trips in the night! [laughing evily]
- Darkwing: Very funny. But we'll see who gets the last laugh!
- Darkwing: Time to face the music, Negaduck!
- Darkwing: I can't let Negaduck take over the world! After all, I am the terror that flaps in the night! I am the itch you cannot reach! I AM Darkwing Duck!
- Negaduck: Oooh. I love musicals. How about a little "Bye-bye birdie"!
- Negaduck: Today, St. Canard -- tomorrow, the world! I always wanted to say that.
- Negaduck: Aaah... perfect. That pest will never find me here!
- Darkwing: [taps Negaduck then points his gas gun at him] Wanna bet?
- Negaduck: Y-Y-You just got lucky!
- Darkwing: Luck?! There's no such thing as luck! I did it with persistence, skill, and a good sense of dramatic timing.
- [suddenly, a volcano erupts]
- Negaduck: [whacks Darkwing and ties him up] Ta-ta, twerp! [escapes]
- Darkwing: Come back and fight like a duck!

- Darkwing: Well, Bianc, it's like I always say: you've got to break a few pennies to save an omelet. ...Well, I say something like that. Anyway, c'mon, Launchpad!
- Darkwing: Oh, great. Another pun-obsessed super-villain.
- Drake: Oh, nice shot of me there! Good composition. You know, this looks great! The only thing that could make it better would be if I could actually catch the crook!

- Launchpad: Hmm. I wonder how much it costs to have my eyes trained?
- Darkwing: It always comes down to this, Launchpad. Me, you, a villain craving my destruction, and an abandoned warehouse.
- Lanchpad: Yeah. I wish for once it could be a roller rink or something.

[to the lightbulb he's holding] What? What's that you say? Wear the jumpsuit, battery, gloves, and helmet? [Kisses bulb] Brilliant! Oh what, would I do without you? [Laughs] Ah, high school. I remember those golden days, days of constant degradation and torment with nary a moment's rest from the endless stream of abuse. Oh, those were the days.
- Elmo Sputterspark: Please refrain from accosting me, sir.

- Elmo Sputterspark: At last, I have harnessed the awesome power of carpet static! And those fools in the Science Club said it couldn't be done!
- Elmo Sputterspark: [to his own hand] Oh, don't point that thing at me. It might go off. At last! What I always wanted: the ability to entertain others at cocktail parties!

- Drake: 'Darkwing Duckman'? What is this 'Darkwing Duckman'?
- Launchpad: Hey DW, try one of these horse do-overs! They're pretty good!
- Darkwing: I am the terror that flaps in the nightǃ I am the fast food that comes back to haunt youǃ I am Darkwing Duckǃ
- Megavolt: [to Darkwing] Gee, I suppose I oughta barbecue you now... but I just haven't got the heart. But don't worry, [whips around and zaps Ham String and Preena Lott] I'm still gonna take my revenge on you two!
- Megavolt: Let's see, particle acceleration plus fade conversions equals... TOAST!
- Megavolt: At last! I'll have revenge on those who tormented me! Those who made me what I am! Wha... what am I anyway? A dentist? No, lumberjack? No. ...King of the Jungle?
- Megavolt: At last! At last, I'll be rid of those meddling kids and their nosy dog! Whoa, wrong cartoon.
- Preena Lott: Yeah, I guess we owe you an apology, Drake. G'wan, g' wan, Ham, apologize!
- Ham String: Aw, gee, Drake, uh, sorry for acting like a chowder head.
- Darkwing: Aww, Ham... you weren't acting.
- Megavolt: I may have lost, but at least I know Darkwing Duck's secret identity! He's... Elmo Sputterspark! No, that's not right...
Mutancy on the Bouncy [3.11]
- Darkwing: Stand still and I'll thrash you some more!
- The Rubber Chicken: I'd better go... if you thrash me any more you're gonna end up in a hospital!
- Darkwing: Think I can't do it, eh? No faith in my abilities, eh? Well ha! And double ha! And ha some more!
- Gosalyn: And so, Darkwing Duck, St. Canard's mighty masked vain pig-headed loud-mouthed snooty egomaniacal waffle-brained mallard, paid a little visit to Swenlin Swine.
- Launchpad: DW! He's going into Bob's World of Breakable Antiques!
- Cement-Head: Oh well, now that you've found me out, I guess I'll just have to crush you like bugs. C'est la vie.
- Launchpad: ...la vie?
- Darkwing: Y'know, you did pretty good. For a mutant.
- The Rubber Chicken: And you did pretty good for a vain pig-headed loud-mouthed snooty egomaniacal waffle-brain!
- Darkwing: Hey! I'm not vain.
Malice's Restaurant [3.12]
- Unnamed Guard: Oh, how can you be so heartless and cruel?
- Negaduck: Practice.
- Negaduck: It's not Negaduckie! IT'S NEGADUCK!!
- Drake: I can explain the bats.
- Herb: Please don't.
- Launchpad: DW! It's the famed food critic, Mr. Mikey!
- Darkwing: Oh, he won't like it! He hates everything!
- Negaduck: And now, a little added ingredient for the goulash: my specially-trained attack squid! I never leave home without it.
- Darkwing: I knew this would happen! Your food has finally gone bad! And I don't mean bad-rotten, I mean bad-evil! C'mon, Launchpad. Let's get goulash!
- Darkwing: Oh, if only I hadn't blamed your food for kidnapping the bunnies, we wouldn't be on the brink of doom! This is all my fault! ...well, aren't you gonna argue with me? You know, "there there, it's not all your fault, DW," that sort of thing?
- Morgana: No, it pretty much is all your fault.
- Darkwing: I am the terror who flaps in the night! I am the editor who cuts your scene! I am Darkwing Duck! ...oh, and this is Morgana, but of course, you've met-- never mind.
- Negaduck: Oh, by the way, your girlfriend's turned herself into a slug. Hope you can love her for her mind.
Extinct Possibility [3.13]
- Darkwing: I am the terror that flaps in the night! I am the limestone that petrifies your bones! I am Darkwing Duck!
