What's not so funny? When he smashes the candle into his cake, the cake explodes and sets his birthday presents on fire. In the "Donald's Birthday" short, Donald gets into a fight with his birthday cake candle.In the theme song, for example, he stuffs them into a life jacket before pirates can abduct him. Here Donald is not leaving the boys, and he's determined to be their good uncle. The nephews were not happy about this, and tell Scrooge they know what it's like to be abandoned. Tears of Joy example: the original series, the Navy called Donald and he had to leave the nephews with Uncle Scrooge.No wonder he wants to keep the boys away from Scrooge's lifestyle. Just to rub salt into the wound, just like how the boys are triplets, Donald is a twin.And with him and Donald falling out over it, he lost both of his kids in one go. In light of "Last Crash of the Sunchaser", this means when Della disappeared, Scrooge essentially lost his daughter.If he did indeed raise the twins from a young age, that means Scrooge has long outlived his sister.

On a similar note, don't think about what relationship Donald might have had with his mother, Scrooge's sister Hortense Hortense gave Donald her Hair-Trigger Temper and married a duck just like her. This manages to be worse than the comics because while there he hadn't seen his family since Donald's childhood here he kept in touch and had the fun he did while building his fortune but still wound up losing those close to him.
