Paperino e l'uomo di Ula-Ula

US, doing his calculations discovers an error. He trusts a certain teacher who gives him a computer capable of calculating without error. But the only one able to use it is a strange primitive hermit living on a lost island. The friendship between Scrooge and the hermit will be broken when he notices errors. At first, he thinks he is the hermit the thief, but thanks to the nephews, he will understand that they are the BB. He will have to apologize to the hermit, who has returned to his island. Note that the story is told in flashback as soon as US joins the island. In the end, the hermit will save US in the company of an animal.
