Donkey Kong Country (1997–2000): Season 2, Episode 13 - It's a Wonderful Life - full transcript

Donkey Kong is having one of those days. Seem like nothing he does is right - breaking Funky's surfboard;locking up the Crystal Coconut and losing the combinations;losing Diddy's lucky autographed ball. It's all going wrong. Maybe a nap will make the bad karma go away? Unless;of course;he sleeps through the annual Future Ruler of Kongo Bongo Barbecue Banana Dinner being held in his honour! Donkey Kong begins to think that Kongo bongo would be better off without him. And that's exactly what happens when Donkey Kong wakes up from a bump on his head. No one can see or hear him! Kongo Bongo Island has gone haywire - Diddy is running an evil empire;King K. Rool is trying to protect the Papier Mache Lily Pad;AND CANDY IS MARRIED TO BLUSTER!! Something tells me that this is not a good thing.

Yes, siree, little buddy.

The sun is shining,
the fish are biting.

You got to admit,
it"s a wonderful... Ohh!

Life.

Hey, Funky, what"s up?

I"ve lost it, dudes.

My surfing stance.

It"s lost in the cosmos.

Watch.

Oof!

See?

Without my world-famous funky

stance, my surfing is suffering.

Relax, Funky.



I can show you how to get your

surf style back.

Oops.

My board!

Instant karma is going to get

you, Donkey Dude.

CRANKY: Donkey Kong!

Uh, love to stay and chat,

Funky, but, uh, got to run.

You bellowed, Cranky?

For starters,
you can explain this!

Ah, that.

That"s my new invention: the

Crystal Coconut
total security system.

When I"m off doing something

vital as future ruler...

Like going fishing?

Exactly.

Well, anyway, now when I"m gone,

nobody can get at the Coconut.

Including me, you

knuckle-dragging knucklehead!

You mean it really worked?

Wow.

I"m impressed.

Looks like I"m pretty valuable

to have around, huh, Cranky?

You"ll be valuable for

donating your body to science if

you don"t get those locks off.

No problemo, Cranky-o.

I"ll have them off in a ji...

Um, you wouldn"t happen to have

the combinations, would you?

Me?

They"re your locks, Donkey Kong.

Don"t worry, Cranky.

There"s more than
one way to open a lock.

Argh!

Well,
you learn something new every day.

I guess there isn"t more than

one way to open a lock.

Out of my way!

[Grunting]

There you go.

One Crystal Coconut,
just like you ordered.

No need to thank me, Cranky.

Thank you?

You want me to thank you?

I can see you"re busy; I'll

see my own way out.

CANDY: Oh, Bluster, I get

goose bumps just hearing you say

those words.

What words?

BLUSTER: Oh, Candy, you know

I need you now more than ever.

Hey!

All right, Bluster, you know

Candy is my girl.

Whoa!

[Screaming]

Donkey Kong, what are you doing?

You two were getting cozy

behind my back.

You were getting goose bumps?

Oh, Donkey Kong, I was

getting goose bumps because

Bluster was finally
giving me a raise.

Uh, and what about you, Bluster?

I heard you say you needed Candy

more than ever.

To fill my biggest order

ever, which you just knocked

over and ruined, which means

Candy, no raise.

Great work, DK.

Your butting in has
just cost me my raise.

BLUSTER: And let"s don't

forget about my barrel order.

Uh, well... Say,
why don"t I come back

later?

DK: Hey, Diddy,
toss it over here.

No way, DK.

This is my lucky ball.

Just one throw?

I"ll throw it right back.

Cross my eyes and hope to skate.

Okay, if you promise to throw

it right back.

This is my favourite ball in the

whole wide world.

Promise.

Now, let "er rip.

Okay, DK, that was great.

Now,
can you just toss my ball back?

Gently?

Here it comes, little buddy,

right down the pike.

Whoa!

Oop.

You just lost my lucky ball!

Sorry, little buddy.

"Sorry" isn"t good enough,
Donkey Kong.

Why couldn"t you have

disappeared forever
instead of my ball?

K. ROOL: Aw,
poor Donkey Kong.

Tough day at the office, bad

biorhythms, or just plain loser?

[Cackling]

Looks like the poor citizens of

Kongo Bongo are just finding out

what I have known for years:

that they"d all be better off

without that lamentable

lunk-head as their future ruler.

[Cackling]

[Vacuum whirring]

Oof.

Boy, oh, boy.

It"s hard to believe anybody

this cute could have everybody

so mad at him.

Well, I"ve never known any

problem that couldn"t be solved

with a little nap.

[Clanging]

DK, what are you doing here?

Uh, nothing, honest.

I was just, uh... Hey,
wait a minute.

I live here!

I"m allowed to goof
off in my own house.

Aren"t I?

Tonight is only the annual

Future Ruler of Kongo Bongo

Barbecue Banana Dinner, at which

you were supposed to be the

guest of honour.

Oh, I completely forgot.

Diddy, can you tell everybody I

was busy fighting evil or

something like that?

Tell them yourself, DK.

Thanks for ruining our evening,
DK.

You really made monkeys out

of all of us, Donkey Kong.

I"m sending you the bill for

my tuxedo rental, Donkey Kong.

Bummer, dude.

But... >> Save it,
Donkey Kong.

We"ll just carry on as if you

were never here.

Yeah, and we probably won"t

even notice the difference.

[Sighing]



♪ Why does it seem

everyone is so unhappy with me ♪

♪ When I try to do my best

they treat me like a pest ♪

better off if I wasn"t around ♪

♪ No no no I wasn"t around ♪

[Groaning]

[Thudding]

Ugh.

Feels like I got the stuffing

knocked out of me.

Oh, no!

I did get the stuffing
knocked out of me.

Where"s my stuffing?

[Panting]

Uh-oh, King K. Rool.

That"s enough of that, K. Rool.

The croc stops here.

Hmm, that can"t be good.

DIDDY: Jumping jungleberries!

I know that gabby
gecko came this way.

He sure did, little buddy.

But don"t worry, we'll get him.

We"re in this together, through

thick and thin.

Thinner than I thought,
apparently.

Don"t worry, Diddy.

I"m right behind you.

What the... >> Not so fast,
monkey.

Eddie the Mean Old Yeti?

Eddie the Guardian Angel Yeti.

Well, congratulations.

It"s a much better name.

Way friendlier, but I got to go

help my little buddy.

No can"t do.

You not here.

Of course I"m here.

You say Kongo Bongo better

off with no you.

Here is Kongo Bongo with no you.

You not exist.

I think you"ve taken a few too

many snowballs to the head.

Things different now.

Whoa!

I got to admit,
I couldn"t do this before.

[Panting]

He"s up to no good, that K.

Rool.

Let me at him!

No.

You watch.

I got to hide.

I can"t let him find me.

DIDDY: I believe you have

something that
is rightfully mine.

Don"t worry, Diddy.

Banana slamma!

Do your worst to me,
you evil chimp.

The papier-mâché lily pad shall

never fall into your evil hands.

The papier-mâché what into

whose evil hands?

You make it sound like

running an evil
empire is a bad thing.

Now, just give me the lily pad

so I can consolidate my reign of

terror over Kongo Bongo.

Which, by the way, I"m renaming

Diddyland when I
capture the lily pad.

Diddyland?

What a dopey name.

Shhh.

What"s that up there?

Hey, hey, hey, over here!

There"s nothing there.

Why do you... Hey!

I, I... I know where you live.

See?

This what Kongo Bongo like with

no Donkey Kong.

This is nuts.

I got to speak to
Cranky about this.

Still more to show you.

This looks the same as

always,
except for me floating way up here.

Why?

Whoa!

I"m never working in this

factory again.

See?

CANDY: Now that I"m Mrs.

Bluster.

I love you, Candy.

[Giggling]

Hey, Candy,
it"s me, Donkey Kong!

You can"t marry him.

You"re supposed to love me.

I do love you.

See?

Bluster.

[Smooching]

DK: Stop it!

How can you just kiss him like

that in front of me?

Oh, why can"t they see me?

Why?

You not exist.

Come.

More to see.

Finally, Cranky"s place.

He"ll know what's going on.

CRANKY: A lame-brained,

goofus doofus of an
ignoramus of an ape.

See, he"s calling me.

I can take it from here.

A lazy, old useless flea motel.

That"s what I am, Your Short and

Sweetness.

Huh?

I accept your apology,
you old... Old...

Odiferous orang-utan?

That"ll work.

You odiferous orang-utan!

Next time you fail to bring me

the papier-mâché lily pad, you

can bring me your head on a

platter instead!

Yes, King Diddy.

DIDDY: I"ve come up with the

most fiendishly clever plan to

steal the lily pad and destroy

the crocodiles.

[Cackling]

And once I have the lily pad in

its place of honour...

What"s this junky piece of junk

doing on my pedestal?

DK: The Crystal Coconut!

I got it, I got it.

I don"t got it.

[Rattling]

Did you put that there?

I thought it looked pretty.

We"re nefarious bad guys bent

on stealing the lily pad and

turning this island
into our evil empire!

We don"t have time for pretty!

BOTH: Sorry, boss.

I can"t take this anymore.

I need some air.

DIDDY: Have I told you guys

about Diddyland yet?

Eddie, what"s going on here?

Without Donkey Kong, Kongo

Bongo not same place.

DIDDY: All right, men.

In one hour, we launch our final

all-out, take-no-prisoners

attack on the
papier-mâché lily pad.

Once and for all, I shall be the

Supreme Ruler of the island

formerly known as Kongo Bongo.

FUNKY: Yo,
Your Diddly Squatness.

What are we going to do?

Go for snow cone?

[DK screaming]

[Thudding]

Oof!

Thanks, Eddie.

You"re in luck, Kongo Bongo.

I"m back!

Whoa!

Oof.

Lucky Kongo Bongo.

[Chuckling]

Candy will help
me turn things around.

She used to be my girlfriend.

Oh, Bluster!

Oh, Candy!

DK: Oh, please!

BOTH: Who are you?

Come on, Candy, how can you

forget the guy who gave you your

first kiss?

What?

Candy, how could you?

I have no idea who this big

hairy ape is.

Honestly, Bluster, you know I

only love you.

You used to say those very

words to me every time you baked

me a banana cream pie.

[Gasping]

You never baked me a pie.

Wait!

I swear I don"t
know this monkey.

Mumsy was right
about you all along.

We"re finished, Candy!

[Helicopter blades whirring]

CANDY: Look what you"ve done.

You"ve driven away the only ape

I ever loved.

Are you happy now?

Pretty happy, yeah.

Well,
you won"t be for long, buddy!

DIDDY: Hey, Candy,
where"s Bluster?

And more importantly, where"s

his helicopter?

Ask this big ape.

He got Bluster so mad at me that

he took off in his helicopter.

Jeepin" jungleberries!

How can I be an evil ruler if I

can"t attack the
enemy in a helicopter?

Oh, that"s so unfair.

I hate that, and I hate you!

Not as much as I do.

I"m telling you, Candy, I

hate him more.

I got to get out of here.

You couldn"t possibly.

Funky, you have to help me.

Do I know you, dude?

Uh,
we were friends in another life?

Finally, somebody who speaks

my language.

Welcome, bro.

What"s shakin'?

Things aren"t what they seem

around here,
and I need a friend.

The Funkman is
your karma companion.

You"re never going to believe

this, but first I was me, good

old Donkey Kong, and then

suddenly I was, like, this

floating invisible thing.

I"ve been there, dude.

I could... Well,
I could put my fist

through things, like this.

Whoa-ho-ho!

My plane!

Sorry.

I forgot I"m not
invisible anymore.

But you"re sure going to wish

you were, Destructo Dude.

Dumb old Bluster takes his

dumb old helicopter, leaving me

standing here with nothing to

use to attack those worthless

lizards so I can achieve
world domination!

Oof!

Ohh.

Hey, little buddy.

Are you okay?

Little buddy?

Littlebuddy?

Do I look little to you?

Sorry.

Uh, nothing personal.

It"s just that I used to call

you that when we were friends.

We were friends?

See this?

That"s my ball.

You can"t take my ball!

Give me my ball.

Sure thing.

It"s just that we used to play

catch with this.

Come on.

One more time for old times"

sake.

We don"t have any old times,

and I"m not that thrilled with

the new times.

Now, give me my ball.

Sorry about that.

[Screaming]

You lost my ball!

[Crying]

When I finally capture the

papier-mâché lily pad and rule

the world,
I"ll get you for this!

[Panting]

Monkey intruders!

Protect the papier-mâché lily

pad at all costs!

Hey, relax.

I"m not here to
steal your lily pad.

You"re one of them.

No, I"m not.

I"m me, Donkey Kong.

Name ring a bell?

You"ll never get
the lily pad from us.

We"ll protect it with every

scale on our bodies.

Get used to going around

naked, guys, because Diddy is

out to steal this
thing once and for all.

You"re here to trick us,
aren"t you?

I trust this ape.

There"s something about him that

seems sincere.

Besides, I don"t think he's

smart enough to trick us.

Thanks, I think.

Hey, can I see this for a sec?

Aw, come on.

Is this the face
of a lily-pad thief?

Just be careful.

[Gasping]

[Sighing]

Phew.

Oops.

You broke our lily pad!

After him!

There"s the dude.



For someone who doesn"t even

exist, I sure am popular.

Banana slamma!

What an odd thing to say when

somebody is chasing you.

Whoa!

[Brakes squealing, crashing]

Get him!

Uh, Eddie?

Yoo-hoo, pal.

We"ve got you now, stranger,

and I get first crack at you.

Hey, I want a piece of him, too.

We can all take turns.

Yeah.

Before you tear me limb from

limb, can I just mention that

you"re all working
together for once?

You know, he"s right.

It"s true,
and not at all unpleasant.

But you broke the
papier-mâché lily pad.

We have to tear
you apart for that.

At the very least.

Yeah, for sure.

Well, uh,
I see your point, but...

Wait a sec.

Stay right there.

What about this?

Why can"t this be your symbol of

knowledge and power?

You know, maybe it"s not so bad.

Check it out.

Nice weight, looks good.

It"s shiny, and maybe it'll work

just fine.

There, you see?

And might I add you"re all now

talking to each other and

working together as friends?

He"s right, you know.

We are.

Maybe some good has come of

having this strange
fellow around.

Maybe we should thank him.

Nah, let"s get him.

Yeah!

DIDDY: Hey!

Oof.

Yow!

Ooh!

I"m out of here.

Banana slamma!

What doesthat mean?

I don"t know,
but it's kind of catchy.

Oof!

Ugh.

CANDY: DK?

Where are you?

Do you really think he ran away?

Well, we did make him feel

pretty unwanted around here.

Ah, baloney.

If I know Donkey Kong, he"s

probably lying under some... Oof!

Do I know Donkey Kong or do I

know Donkey Kong?

CANDY: DK, are you all right?

We were worried sick about you.

No, leave me alone.

I"m sorry I broke the

papier-mâché lily pad.

Lily pad?

What lily pad?

You, the evil Diddy!

And Candy, you"re in love with

Bluster, and... >> Ooh, boy.

That must have been
some dream you had.

It"s not a dream.

I ran away and... >> Now,
you"re back.

That"s the important thing.

We"re sorry we
made you feel so bad.

[Smooching]

Hey!

[Giggling]

Just checking.

Banana slamma!

I"m back.

You"re the best friends
an ape could have.

Watch it!

Whoa.

DK, you big lummox.

Ah, it"s good to be home.
