DuckTales, Season 1

Scrooge:
Just stop! I don't need you! [holding his dime] Everything I earned, I earned through my own hard work. You never gave me anything!

Fergus:
I gave you that. [pointing to the dime]

Scrooge:
Ugh... my Number One Dime? Burt the ditch digger gave it to me. Back in my shoeshine days, I worked for hours on Burt's boots. He paid me with an American dime.

Fergus:
Who do you think gave him the dime?

Scrooge:
What?

Fergus:
Aye. I muddied his boots, and sent him your way.

Scrooge:
Wait, what? But why?

Fergus:
We were poor. I couldn't provide for you myself, so I had to give you a different gift, self-reliance. Teaching you to work hard, and fend for yourself, so that you'd become the man you are now. But you learned that lesson so well, we hardly saw you again. If I'm hard on you, lad, it's 'cause I miss you, is all.

Scrooge:
Oh, Daddy... I miss you too.
