Jumpin" jungle lands!

What did you say?

It"s the anniversary of the

first time I broke
a date with Candy.

So, I"m going to write her a

love letter using Funky"s plane.

Yoo-hoo, anybody home?

Who celebrates that anniversary?

It"s like celebrating your first

toothache?

I know, but we had so much

fun on our real anniversary, now

Candy wants to
celebrate everything!

[Laughing]



Oh, you got it bad, big guy.

Candy"s turned you into a robot.

All right, DK, dude!

Ready to make like a poet, and

paint the sky with your cosmic

message of love?

Maybe I"ll catch up to you

later, little buddy.

[Engine revving]

Now, I just turn it on.

Whoa!

[Rattling]

Now, let"s see if it works.

Robot, walk!

Robot, stop!

Robot, get to work!

Robot, stop working!

Works like a charm.

I could build a mechanical

barrel-maker in my sleep.

But for real inventing genius,

these brain-transfer helmets

have to be my
piece de resistance!

Enemy security has been

breached, and I know who"s going

to love this gossip!

Heh, heh!

I mean, intelligence.

At Bluster"s Barrelworks, we

keep on the cutting
edge of technology.

We"re driving in the fast lane

on the information highway.

"Automation, innovation."

That"s my new motto!

Bluster"s Barrelworks is getting

a barrel-making robot!

A barrel-making robot?

But that"s my job!

Don"t worry, Candy.

You"re being promoted.

The boss... that"s me... needs a

personal assistant.

You know, to take letters,

answer phones,
join me on picnics.

In your dreams, Bluster!

You could be investing in my

future by giving me a raise.

Candy, a robot will be able

to work all day, never complain,

and never leave early to go for

long lunches with Donkey Kong!

For your information, I can

do more work than any robot.

And what"s more, I'll bet I can

train anybody to make barrels

faster than your robot.

Anybody?

Anybody!

Okay, I"ll bet you that my

robot can do as good as, or

better than,
the laziest ape on the island.

Who, DK?

I mean, you"re on!

If I win, you give me a raise.

And if I win, you come on

a picnic with me!

Deal!

DK is incapable of work,
hard or easy.

[Candy sighing]

But he is awfully sweet.

[Bubbling]

Krusha, bring me a...

a barrel of... salt?

Uh, here it is.

Oh, let"s see.

I"m cooking; there's the pot.

Maybe I want it in the pot!

Whatcha making?

This is my mother"s
recipe for muffins.

Muffins fit for a king!

Bleh!

Oh, Klump, just in time to

see me put the final touches on

my mother"s magnificent muffins.

Care for a taste?

Uh, negative, sir.

General Klump, returning from a

successful recognizance mission

behind enemy lines!

What earth-shattering news do

you have to report, Klump?

The bananas aren"t ripe, and the

monkeys are in a tizzy?

Cranky has invented a new

contraption,
Your Flaky Pastriness!

And what might that be?

It"s a device that transfers

knowledge from brain to brain!

Given my choices, I think

I"ll stay with the
brain I have now.

Now, if it transferred power,

well, then we"d have something.

Of course, knowledge is power,

and knowledge comes from books!

And if the device could transfer

that knowledge to me... Klump!

I need that machine!

I want you two numbskulls to get

me that machine!

And if you do, I"ll have some of

Mother"s muffins
waiting for you!

[Sound of plane engine]

Okay, DK, dude!

Let"s finish this up!

Later, dude!

Ahhh!

[Crashing]

Oh, look who"s here.

Donkey Kong!

Nice of you to drop in.

I got some errands to run.

You keep your eye on the

Coconut,
and don"t touch anything!

Relax, Cranky!

You can count on me.

I mean it!

Keep your mitts to yourself.

Come to Daddy,
my little yellow friends.

What?

No bananas?

That"s even worse than...

there"s nothing worse
than no bananas!

Hey, look, I"m General Klump.

Ten-hut!

Find some bananas, soldier!

[Crashing]

[DK"s voice] Whoa, I don't

know what just happened.

Ahh!

But whatever it was, it sure

made me hungry.

I got to have a banana, or I"m

going to pass out!

CRANKY: We"re back, DK.

DK?

Ugh!

Look at you, fast asleep,

and too lazy to even
crawl onto the couch?

And playing with my experiments!

Wake up, DK!

Now, hop to it!

DK, give it a rest!

[Crashing]

Honestly, even Bluster"s robot

has more brains than you!

DK, where is that robot?

Yes, Cranky, where is my robot?

He wouldn"t!

He couldn"t!

He must have.

You"re not going to believe this,
Bluster.

DK and the robot
switched brains.

The robot has DK"s brain!

In that case,
I expect a discount.

Now, where is it?

Uh, not here.

Hoo, boy!

I got to go find it.

Just stay here, and don"t touch

anything, either of you!

Trying to get good help these

days, it"s like banging your

head against the wall.

Obedient, isn"t he?

Hmm.

[Banging sound]

I paid for a robot, and I"m

entitled to a robot.

Even a big, hairy, ugly one.

Robot, stop!

Robot, walk.

Bananas, got to find bananas!

Hey, Diddy!

Care to join me for
a little power snack?

How"d you do that?

Where are you hiding?

It"s a trick, isn't it, ha ha!

What?

What, tell me!

Are you feeling okay?

Okay, DK, you got me!

Joke"s over, so come on out!

[Chuckling]

Whoa!

Help, Diddy!

I"ve fallen, and I can't get up!

Can you pass me a banana,
little buddy?

DK, is that really you?

Who else would it be?

♪ Is there something you should

tell me, big buddy? ♪

♪ Are you aware of the glare

from the sun shining
off of your hair? ♪

♪ I don"t know what you mean ♪

♪ It"s just a healthy sheen ♪

♪ I must admit I
feel a little strange ♪

♪ But I"ve never felt better ♪

♪ I"m stronger than ever ♪

♪ Can"t you see
nothing's changed ♪

[Sounds of computer beeping]

♪ I don"t know how to tell you,

metal buddy ♪

♪ But you look just like a

solar-powered turbo-charged

washing machine ♪

♪ I"m not light on my feet ♪

♪ No, I clank and I squeak

♪ But my voice is the
same when I speak ♪

♪ My hand looks
like aluminum foil ♪

♪ Does this mean that I need

a tune-up and a change of oil? ♪

♪ I"m a metal-head ♪

♪ A metal-head,
a metal-head ♪ A metal-head

♪ I"m a metal-head ♪

♪ A metal-head,
a metal-head ♪ A metal-head

[Circuits crackling]

I trust all that primping is

for the purpose
of our picnic date.

I"d rather go on the picnic

with your stupid
robot than go with you!

To be blunt, Candy, I think

you"ve already been there,
done that.

Let me introduce
you to my new robot.

Robot, walk in!

DK?

DK, what"s the big idea?

Is this some kind of joke?

Now, watch this.

Robot, work!

CANDY: What"s going on here?

How"d you do that?

Simple, he"s a robot.

Cranky was able to put a brain

where before there was none.

And now, he does exactly what I

tell him,
which means I win our little bet!

Come on, DK, the joke is over!

Don"t forget, a bet's a bet!

I don"t know what's going on,

but it"s not funny, and I'm mad

at you both!

And as far as I"m concerned, you

can go cuddle with
Bluster from now on!

BLUSTER: Wait, stop!

No, ahh!

What if Cranky
can"t do anything?

Then, I"d stay out of the

rain if I were you.

I leave you alone for five

minutes, and look what happens!

You do know how to switch DK

back, don"t you, Cranky?

Nothing could be easier.

Phew!

Except one thing.

What?

I don"t have your
other body anymore.

How could you lose my body?!

I went out to look for the

metal you, and left the big

hairy you alone with Bluster.

[Gasping]

He must have taken
you to be his robot.

He better not be
working me too hard.

Enough!

Oh, you brainless bag of bones!

Ahh!

Robot, stop working!

[Buzzer sounding]

Phew!

That"s better.

Finally, some peace and quiet.

Robot,
you give me a pain in the neck.

Wait!

No, Robot, no!

Now, remember the plan.

We decoy and attack on the

coconut, and then,
grab the helmet gizmos.

Mm, not the coconut?

We always want the coconut.

Oh, never mind!

Let"s go.

CRANKY: And this time, don"t

touch anything, or I"ll turn you

into a toaster oven!

We"ll be back in no time,
big buddy!

Crocs!

Donkey Kong, get them!

BOTH: Donkey Kong?

Banana slamma!

[Crocs laughing]

Looks like a
break-dancing jukebox!

Get them, Robot!

Oops, I think I broke it.

[Klump laughing]

Cranky, they got the helmets!

Looks like it"s up to us.

Come on, you big palookas!

I"m not afraid of you.

Put "em up!

Come on, I dare you.

Ahh!

[Sound of bowling pins crashing]

Strike, let"s go!

They"re getting away!

I"m going after them.

What?

Oh, at least they didn"t get

the coconut.

Argh!

DK and Bluster, I...

I can"t believe they'd
team up against me.

Why,
when I get my hands on them again...

Heh,
the boss will be happy with this.

[Crashing]

Oh, no!

I"m out of uniform!

Uh, got to get the gizmos!

Oh, oh,
don"t forget the General, too.

[General Klump"s voice] Whoa!

A little shell-shocked, but

otherwise, A-OK.

Takes more than a little bump to

put a five-star general
out of commission.

I"ve been trying to lose weight,

but this is ridiculous!

Candy, you see Klump and Krusha?

Salute when you address an

officer, Private!

Why would I salute you, Candy?

Oh, no reason.

Uh,
I mean... [High-pitched] No reason!

What"s the
matter with your voice?

Sounds like you have
a frog in your throat.

Or even a croc.

What?

Who said that?

Candy, it"s me, DK!

Oh, you"re a walking, talking

walkie-talkie!

I mean, uh...

[High-pitched] Is that you, Your

Pumpkinness?

I can explain, I think.

Somehow, my brain ended up

inside Bluster"s robot, and

then, while I was trying to save

the Crystal Coconut, Krusha

knocked my block off.

Yeah,
he darn-near tore you in two!

Uh, I mean, too bad!

Shouldn"t we
go after those guys?

Nah!

I think we could reconnoitre at

Cranky"s place!

BOTH: Re... connoitre?

We wouldn"t want to risk that

devilishly clever General Klump

getting his hands on
the Crystal Coconut!

And you"re sure this is the

right invention?

That was the only gizmo.

Excellent!

Supreme and ultimate knowledge,

and a jaunty fashion statement!

Ha ha!

Oh, I love it!

[General Klump shouting]

What on Earth are you doing

tied up like that?

He"s broken.

Untie him, now!

[As Candy] How
dare you tie me up?

Didn"t anyone ever tell you

that"s no way to treat a lady?

Donkey Kong is going to skin you

and use your hide for hiking

boots if you don"t
let me go this instant!

General Klump,
pull yourself together!

Klump!

Are you blind?

Do I look like Klump to you?

As a matter of fact, yes.

[Gasping]

[Screaming]

Oh, no!

What happened to me?

I need some moisturizer now!

[Fainting]

How very strange.

It looks like Klump
and... [Sniffing]

It definitely smells like Klump.

And yet, he sounds like...

Candy, Candy Kong!

Somehow,
there must have been a switch.

Ooh, it really works!

It really, really works!

Now, I have the power to suck

all the knowledge from every

book in Kongo Bongo!

I"ll be brilliant!

I"ll be the smartest
being on the island!

You could read every book on

the island, and you"d still be

only half as smart as
the Crystal Coconut!

You"re right.

You bet I am, buster!

Maybe I don"t need every book

on the island.

Maybe I just need to hook myself

up to the Crystal Coconut!

[Laughing]

Oh, it"s brilliant!

And diabolical!

Oh, I love it!

Thank you, General.

That"s quite possibly the best

idea you"ve ever had.

Krusha,
let"s go get the coconut!

DK: Is it fixed?

Am I all better?

Can I walk?

Ah, don"t get ahead of yourself.

Hey, hey!

I made a funny!

[Clanking]

Ah, I give up.

I can"t fix it.

KLUMP: Uh, shouldn"t we be

planning a raid on the boss"s...

I mean, ahem, K. Rool"s lair,

to get back that
brain-switch thingy?

You"re probably right about

that, Candy.

And I"ll guard the coconut!

Around-the-clock sentries, um,

undercover surveillance!

Huh?

Just guarding it the best way

a gal knows how!

[Giggling]

I"ll stay and guard it with

Candy,
in case any intruders show up!

What are you gonna do, DK?

Head-butt them?

[Laughing]



I know, I know!

He"ll play head games with them!

[Laughing]

Head games, that"s good!

[Laughing]

No, hold on, DK will be okay.

He"s got a good
head off his shoulders!

Oh,
this is giving me a headache.

Headache!

Ha, ha, get it?

Headache.

[Laughing]

You know, DK, you could

always head "em off at the pass!

After giving them a head

start, ha ha ha!

[Laughing]

Okay, that"s enough!

All of you, head on out of here.

Whoo-hoo!

That"s using your, heh, head!

Ha!

[All laughing]

I should just quite while I"m

a... head?

[Laughing]

You sure you can handle this,
Candy?

No croc is going to steal the

coconut when I"m around!

Not even that ruggedly handsome

General Klump!

Ooh!

No croc"s going to steal the

coconut, because I"m gonna steal

it myself!

[Laughing]

Candy, what are you doing here?

Oh, dear, Robot, stop.

Well, Cranky"s not around, so

uh, see ya!

What"s the
matter with your voice?

Uh... [Coughing]

A little cold!

Say, as long as we"re alone,

maybe we could
start our picnic date.

What do you say,
my adorable little pet?

[Kissing]

Oh, you, you are way out of

line, soldier!

[Punching]

I"ll tell Cranky you stopped by!

Ugh!

Argh, ugh!

CRANKY: Okay,
Klump, we"re here.

We want to... Hey,
why are you all tied up?

It certainly took
you long enough!

Now, will you untie me already?

ALL: Candy?

Of course I"m Candy!

Who do I look like?

Where"s DK?

I know that he must be behind

all this craziness.

Hi, Candy!

[Screaming]

DK, is that you?

You look terrible!

Have you taken a look in the

mirror lately?

Never mind all
the lovey-dovey stuff.

We"ve got to find
the transfer helmets!

King K. Rool has them!

He"s going to use them to

transfer the power of the

coconut into his brain!

If he does that, there"ll be

no stopping him!

The coconut!

Don"t worry, Cranky.

Candy"s guarding it.

No, I"m not!

ALL: Klump!

Hey, Robot Monkey!

Bring me something to eat!

I"m waitin', soldier!

Now, step on it!

Hey!

General Klump reporting the

successful capture
of the Crystal Coconut!

Klump, you"re out of uniform.

[Chuckling]

But considering the success of

your mission,
I"ll ignore it this time.

Donkey Kong!

He"s harmless.

Watch this.

Robot, walk on your hands!

Good trick, ha ha!

Oh, enough fooling around.

If I wanted to watch a trained

monkey do some tricks, I"d buy

a ticket to the circus.

Go make a barrel or something.

Ah, what are you doing?

Klump,
I thought you said he was harmless!

Just in time.

Banana slamma!

Uh, that"s it for me.

Good move, Diddy!

Now, watch out!

He"s going left!

Hey, DK, enough with the

back seat fighting!

You better not have damaged

that body, you slimy tadpole!

You call this a body?

I eat pretzels fatter than this!

Diddy, quick!

Throw me DK"s brain!

Don"t miss, Cranky!

Now, to put your brain back

where it belongs.

I"m me, and I'm back!

Will you get me out of this?

My pleasure.

Banana slamma!

[Crashing]

Much obliged.

Whoa!

[K. Rool and Krusha screaming]

Okay, Klump, this has gone on

long enough.

Put the helmet on!

I... I"m me again!

And my skin is so soft!

Oh,
you must tell me your secret.

A little moisturizer twice a

day works wonders!

Is that really you, Candy?

It"s me!

Want a kiss?

Um, ah, not just yet.

Are you Klump?

No... uh, yes.

And I"ll be
retreating right now.

Exactly my plan, too!

[Klump screaming]

Okay, I"ll take that kiss now!

Cranky, I demand my money back.

I paid for a robot, and I got

nothing but trouble.

You"re right, Bluster.

We had some technical problems,

but I think we got
the bugs worked out.

Forget it!

That robot"s even dumber than

Donkey Kong,
if such a thing were possible.

I"ll give him to you for free.

Not interested!

I"ve had it with robots.

Robots give me a giant pain in

the backside.

[Robotic voice]
Pain in backside!

Ah!

It"s a figure of speech!

[All laughing]
