Oh. Well, in that case I'm glad you found a job you like. Or, at least, don't hate... [He chuckles sheepishly.]
[Then his eyes go wide, and he shakes his head wildly from side to side.] No! No, no no... not in the least! I mean, okaaaay, he might be a bit of a skinflint. And a cheapskate. And thrifty! And a very shrewd businessman. And perhaps a wee bit greedy. [Cue awkward clearing of throat, as he realizes he's just listing all Scrooge's vices.] But deep down he's really a nice guy! He worked hard to get his fortune. I mean really, really hard! And though he tries to hide it, he really is a big softie. His heart's as big as his money bin! He just loves his nephews, and Webby! And he's a really good friend to me, too! He's given me SO many chances, even when I've screwed up SO many times! And he gives all these second chances to his other employees he really loves, too! Like how many times Launchpad would always crash his planes, Scrooge never fired him! And when he ever did, he ALWAYS hired him right back, immediately! And no matter how many weird, crazy inventions Gyro made, that went totally haywire, he was always the first - and only - inventor Scrooge'd ever call on! He just puts up this image of the gruff old codger. He's got a reputation to uphold, y'know? But he's really a great guy once you get to know him!
[With the ... emphatic ways Fenton was talking about him, a few sparks of energy popped in the air around Fenton as he talked, ruffling some feathers and nearby objects.]
