Actually, I think that this episode ranks right up there as one of the best and most "Barksian" of the first-season "DT" eps.  It had humor, suspense, good characterization, the whole package.  The Beagle Boys' "musical number" was simply icing on the cake.  (Don't forget that Pete -- called "Captain Blackheart" here -- made a "costumed" appearance in this one, as he did in "The Duck in the Iron Mask" and "Pearl of Wisdom.")
