As we know, DuckTales 2017 is FULL of clever, subtle parallels and callbacks to other episodes (not just to the 80s series, but within the reboot itself). Here's one I've never seen anyone talk about:
Compare this scene in season 2's 'Happy Birthday, Doofus Drake' where Doofus hacked poor Boyd and reprogrammed him to tie Louie up like a pinata and attack him-
-to this scene in the final episode of the series 'The Last Adventure':
The scene in 'The Last Adventure' was the second time Boyd attended a birthday party and the second time he was involved in a pinata game. But it was the first time doing so while completely free of anyone else's reprogramming/hacking (enslavement, essentially). He was actually enjoying his life as a free person, just having fun like the real kid he wanted to be, alongside his true dad who loves him and wants the world for him.
Ever since Gyro finally gave him the validation Boyd desperately needed to hear from his creator's own mouth in the episode 'Astro B.O.Y.D.' ("You are not evil! You are good! You're more than your programming! You are a definitely real boy!"), allowing him to snap out of Akita's evil programming, he became truly free for the first time in his life with the ability to make his own choices, his systems completely free of all the other reprogramming others forced on him for their own selfish, ignorant purposes. He truly embraced what it was to be a real person- his own person- choosing his own identity (the 'real boy' programming Gyro himself created him with long ago, but Boyd still chose it for himself at the end of 'Astro B.O.Y.D.').
And that's why the parallel between these two scenes is so powerful.

[ID: A digital drawing of Launchpad, Drake, Gosalyn, and Boyd from DuckTales 2017 and Honker from Darkwing Duck. Launchpad and Drake are sitting on a couch further back while the kids are gathered in the midground, the silhouette of a TV stands in the foreground and illuminated the entire group. Launchpad's cheeks bulge with a mouthful of popcorn. He is leaning forward, gripping a bag of popcorn and staring at the TV with sparkling eyes. Drake has a fist raised in a cheer while having his other arm wrapped around LP's. Gosalyn is sitting with her knees up, a fist raised as she looks at the TV. Boyd sits beside her, mouth agape and hands holding his own bucket of popcorn. Honker lays beside them with his chin in his hands. The image has strong purple shading. End ID.]
With no further delay we have Duckverse June week 5 with the prompt Movie Night!
Darkwing Duck marathon at LP's!!
