Dark Halloween

During Halloween, the Junior Woodchucks try to find the lost cabing of criminal scientist Prof. Bitterman. During their trip, things taste bitter and they are guided by a strange butterfly to the shed, only to find a gigant alien chrysalis and the professor himself. He tries to spread bitterness using thought-sensing butterflies, but the arrival of Donald's home-baked cookies by Duck Avenger make this evil plan to fail.
