L'arca di Paperon-Noè

The Beagle Boys trick Uncle Scrooge into believing a deluge is coming. Scrooge, Donald, and his nephews build an ark to protect his fortune. The Beagle Boys secretly tow the ark out to sea, taking Scrooge and the others with it to create the illusion of a flood. With no food aboard, Donald and the nephews trade the ark full of coins for a ship full of food from the Beagle Boys, to Scrooge's dismay. Realizing the trick, they set out to retrieve the money.
