What’s Bad For The Business is a friendship quest you’ll receive from Scrooge McDuck in Disney Dreamlight Valley, and you’ll be rewarded with 410 XP points for completing it.
Scrooge needs your help exposing a shifty octopus-woman who is taking his clients away. I wonder who the shifty octopus-woman is; could it be Ursula?
The quest is quite short, especially if you know where to look for a specific type of flower.
So, I suggest checking the following walkthrough not to waste a second resolving the conflict between Scrooge and Ursula in the video game developed by Gameloft.
How To Start What’s Bad For Business In Disney Dreamlight Valley
What’s Bad For Business may be short, but the list of requirements to start the quest is not. Here is what you have to do:
- Unlock Ursula
- Reach Friendship Level 6 with Scrooge McDuck
- Progress further with Merlin and Ursula
- Unlock the Dazzle Beach Biome
To have an easier time unlocking Dazzle Beach and Ursula, you should check our guide here.
And if you need help reaching the required Friendship Level with McDuck, make sure you consult our Friendship Level Up Guide.
Talk to Scrooge and start the quest once you’ve taken care of all the requirements. Don’t forget to use your map if you have problems finding the entrepreneur.
How To Gather A White & Red Hydrangea
McDuck has put out a plan to see if Ursula would try to extort you if she had the chance.
So make your way to Ursula and ask her to get you a Catfish.
The Sea Witch will ask you for a White & Red Hydrangea flower in return for the fish.
The flower is not hard to find, provided you are in Dazzle Beach, because this is the only place it grows.
Be sure you pick up a White and Red Hydrangea, not a pink or purple one. As you can see in the image above, the flower appears to be mostly red from a distance.
Don’t panic if you can’t find the right flower because you can pick up all of them and then wait for them to respawn, hoping you have better luck this time.
How To Expose The Crook
Go to Ursula once you have the White & Red Hydrangea in your backpack (inventory) and trade it for a Catfish.
You have to take the Catfish to Scrooge, who will get outraged and will want to expose the crook, so go with him back to Ursula.
All you have to do now is sit back and watch the two Villagers argue.
When the NPCs finish their discussion, speak with Scrooge to end the Disney Dreamlight Valley What’s Bad For Business and unlock the next quest in line named The Treasure Hunt.
I did this quest but I accidentally sold the catfish before I showed it to Scrooge and now can’t move forward in the quest. I tried catching another catfish but Scrooge isn’t recognizing it and I tried bringing Scrooge to Ursula but that didn’t trigger it either. Anyone have any thoughts of what I could try?
Hey there! What does your current objective say?
Hi! It says “Collect the Catfish from Ursula.”
Did you try talking to Ursula again?
I did. I’m able to still do new quests with her but there’s nothing about the What’s Bad for Business quest. I tried having Scrooge follow me when I talked to her but that didn’t trigger anything either.
Sounds like a quest breaking bug
My next objective in this quest says “go see urusula with Scrooge mcduck” but when I click him he says “Let’s go talk to that crook about her dodgy deals!” But he doesn’t go anywhere after that. What am I supposed to do? He just stands. I made him my buddy and find her and nothing happens 🙁
First, try restarting, then select him as your companion. Next, make sure sure you track the correct quest in your journal. Try talking to him about the current quest, then head to Dazzle Beach and stay as close as possible to Ursula. Let me know if it works.
