Tracking Sandy

Donald retells the story about how he got Scrooge to splurge out money for a new Woodchuck Science center. By help from HDL, he had to locate a rich man's secret gold mine somewhere in the desert for Scrooge. The mine was never found, but the whole endeavor turned out to be in Scrooge's best interest after all.
