"The Forbidden Fountain of the Foreverglades!" is the sixty-first episode of DuckTales. It premiered on October 12, 2020 and is the eleventh episode of the third season.

Plot

Scrooge McDuck and the kids arrive at the Conquistador Inn; a luxurious hotel that resides close to the fabled Fountain of the Foreverglades. The inn is currently overrun with teenage Springbreakers who begin to fill up the amenities. Huey once again has their whole day at the inn planned which upsets Dewey as Huey always makes the plans based on the fact that he is technically older. Scrooge and Webby run into Goldie O'Glit who is also after the fountain for its properties. She snags Isabella Finch's journal and flees into the jungle with Scrooge and Webby in hot pursuit while a mysterious figure watches them.

Dewey wants to give the pool a try, but the Springbreakers have filled it up and he only gets his toe in. A little while later, Dewey suddenly appears taller than Huey and Louie and proclaims that he must have gone through a growth spurt and attempts to take over the planning for the day. However, the boys see that the Springbreakers have all disappeared and instead seniors are everywhere, confusing Louie. In the jungle, Webby continues to outrun the elder Scrooge and Goldie and they both fight over a canister of water. They both end up falling into a river and when they emerge, have turned into teenagers. Scrooge and Goldie relish their newly restored youth and continue their chase with Webby following close behind.

Scrooge and Goldie begin to converse and flirt with one another, and they decide that they want to use the opportunity to renew their lives with each other by taking the fountain's power to make themselves permanently young. As Webby continues to follow, she encounters many misfortunes that cause her to walk and act like an elder. Eventually, they reach the fountain and run into the figure which turns out to be an elderly and wrinkled John D. Rockerduck being carried by Jeeves who is now a Frankenstein-esque monster. The group fight, but quickly discover that the fountain is drained and deduce that it is all back at the inn.

As Huey and Dewey continue to have their power struggle, Louie looks around and realizes that the manager at the inn is Ponce De Leon and that he is draining the Springbreakers' youth for himself. Leon captures the boys and traps them in his backroom where he keeps a personal water fountain for himself. Scrooge and Goldie arrive at the inn and fight Leon with Rockerduck and Jeeves arriving to fight as well. Rockerduck drinks some of the water; restoring his youth, but quickly gets knocked out by Scrooge who continues to fight Leon and Jeeves.

Goldie slips away to steal the waters for herself, but upon seeing Louie in trouble, decides to turn back and aid Scrooge. She defeats Jeeves by forcing him to drink a large amount of the water, turning him back into a baby and forcing Rockerduck to take him and flee. Scrooge and Goldie continue to fight Leon, and they end up falling into the draining pool. Scrooge and Goldie escape, being restored to their original ages, while Leon dies.

Afterwards, the heroes restore the Springbreakers' youth to them and Dewey returns to his proper age after realizing how much of a handful it is to be older. As Scrooge once again bemoans Goldie leaving, Goldie suddenly arrives to return Finch's journal before grabbing Scrooge and kissing him declaring "Spring Break!" much to everyone's joy.
