When I begin my magnanimous
reign as rightful ruler of Kongo
Bongo, it is imperative that my
forces be prepared, and in peak
physical condition.
We'll be ready,
willing, and able, sir.
Ouch.
Uh... >> To that end,
I have prepared
a painstaking fitness test.
Pain.
Steak.
Mmm, yummy.
Silence!
It will last for
exactly one hour.
You'll begin with jumping jacks.

Sheesh!
Back to level three, again!
[DK yawning]
I gotta tell ya, Diddy.
Guarding the
Coconut is hard work.
Yeah, real hard.
Yeesh.
And it works up an appetite.
I could sure go for a banana.
You just had a dozen bananas.
Well, then I could go for a nap.
[Beeping]
Oh, this is good.
I wish I could sleep for ever.
[Explosion]
[Diddy shouting]
[Birds shrieking]
Uh-oh.
That's odd.
Oh, well.
I'll worry about
it after my break.
What happened?
Some thing's wrong.
I smell money not being made.
The machinery just stopped.
[Gasping]
But... but... Every second this
line is down costs me money!
We have to get it going again.
I'm on my break.
It can't be time for your break.
The clock must be wrong.
Ow!
You can't expect to be paid for
a never ending break
just because the...
[Candy whistling]
[Bluster gasping]
I'll be ruined!
I'll be glad to
discuss it with you.
[Candy giggling]
After my break.
Care for some tofu?
Ah, the rare flora dora
orchid, and today's the one day
a year that you bloom, for five
seconds, when the sun is in
exactly that position.
Say cheese.
That's it, work with me.
I only have five seconds.
See you next year, my pretty.
Hey, how come you're still here?
Wait a minute.
The sun should have shifted.
Great jumping bananas!
The sun's not moving!
That can't be good.
♪ Feel the burn [Grunting]
What was that?
Permission to have a stroke,
sir.
Permission denied!
You've got... One hour to go?
Oh,
don't you feel healthy already?
♪ Feel the burn >> Now,
carry on.
Yo, DK!
Hello in there!
Hey, big buddy.
Nap time's over.
Rise and shine.
Wakey, wakey.
[DK snoring]
Ooh.
Bah,
at least the Coconut is safe.
Ah!
Hmm, the sun stopped moving,
none of these
clocks are working.
Donkey Kong!
It's not his fault,
Cranky, honest.
He didn't do any thing.
He just had a nap, which is
normal, except now he won't wake
up, which isn't.
What are we gonna do?
Hmm.
Oh, feel the burn.
Two, three, four.
Push, two, three, four.
Two... Three... [Krusha snoring]
♪ When you're tired and feelin'
weak ♪
♪ Just get on up
and move your feet ♪
Not the face!
Huh?
Oh, time seems to have stopped.
So has the sun.
That would certainly explain why
those unfit misfits
are so exhausted.
Brilliant as I am, surely I'm
not the only one
who's noticed this.
Hmm, let's just see.
The big ape is out like a light!
You said what to the Coconut?
Okay, I was trying to finish
level three of my game when DK
complained about how hard it was
to guard the Coconut, then he
said he wanted a banana.
I said he already had a dozen.
Then he said he'd
settle for a nap.
Then he said he wished he could
sleep for ever, and I wish that
I could win my game, and...
Hang on a second.
Back up.
DK said what?
That guarding the
Coconut was hard work.
And then?
I messed up and went back to
level three.
DK said he wanted a nap.
Diddy, this is important.
How did he say it, exactly?
He said "Mmm, this is good.
I wish I could sleep for ever."
Oh,
I think I like where this is going.
I knew it had to be him.
Even when he takes a nap, he
gets us all in trouble.
It's some kind of crazy spell.
That sounds bad, but lucky
for us, you know how to wake the
big guy up, right Cranky?
Hmm.
I said right, Cranky?
It would be lucky
if I did know how.
You mean,
he could sleep for ever?
Well, well.
It seems the big ape has gone
for the big sleep, which just
goes to show if you snooze,
you lose.
The Crystal Coconut, that is.
[K. Rool laughing]
How to get to sleep spells,
how to stay asleep spells, how
to put your mother-in-law
to sleep spells.
Urgh, I can't find any thing on
how to get time moving again, or
on how to wake up sleeping beauty,
here.
I know what can wake him up.
Hey, guys.
[DK snoring]
Diddy, what are you doing?
I was just trying
to wake him up.
DK's under a spell.
The Crystal Coconut has some how
halted time, and put Donkey Kong
in a deep sleep.
Oh, that explains what
happened at Bluster's, and why
I'm still on a paid banana
break, and why I'm so tired.
This napping knucklehead is
hard enough to wake up at the
best of times!
Wakey, wakey!
I can see I have my
work cut out for me.
Well, that's the last of
them, and nothing.
Not one clue how
to break the spell!
And if DK never wakes up, well
he can't very well protect the
Crystal Coconut in his dreams.
Don't worry, Cranky.
He'll wake up if he knows what's
good for him.
Wake up!

Huh, what?
All ya get is, uh... name, rank,
and serial number...
[Klump snoring]
At ease, you gutless geckos.
Now, listen closely.
While you were catching 40
winks, I was working my brain
cells to the bone, hatching the
most ingeniously cunning plan.
[Klump yawning]
Permission to close both eyes
while I'm listening, sir.
Denied!
Even brain challenged bozos like
you must have noticed that time
has stopped.
Well, that's a relief, sir.
I thought my watch was broken.
Oh, does... does this mean I
can stay up late?
Oh, never mind.
But there's even better news.
Donkey Kong, that siesta-ing
simian, is under a spell.
He can't wake up, which makes
the Crystal Coconut
ripe for the picking!
Understood, sir.
I'll... initiate, uh...
operation... ripe for the picking,
sir.
With, uh, Donkey Kong
decommissioned, grabbin' the
Coconut will be a piece of cake.
Ooh, ooh, we get cake, too?
Oh, boy.
Never mind.
DIDDY: "That's far enough!"
What?
He's supposed to be sleepin'.
"What do you want?"
Oh, coconut pancakes.
Uh,
what the private means is, uh...
[Yawning]
We were out on manoeuvres, ya
see, and got a little hungry for
coconut cake and, well, I... I
guess we got our coordinates
mixed, uh... up.
"Nice try, ya lyin' lizard.
You're here to snatch
the Crystal Coconut."
Yes, please.
Oh, no, no, no.
Don't listen to this dimwit.
"You're makin' me angry."
About face and retreat, troops!
[Shouting]
Cranky, now!
[Yelling]
Phewf.
That was close.
Couldn't have done it without
ya, big buddy.
[Diddy chuckling]
They'll be back for the
Coconut, trust me.
We fooled those two brain
cramped barnacles for now, but
that still doesn't
break DK's spell.
There must be
some thing we can...
[Yawning]
Do.
Do!
That's it.
Why didn't I think of it before?
Think of what, Cranky?
The Inka Dinka Doo!
He'll know the answer.
Diddy, you and Donkey Kong are
taking a little trip.
Huh?
[Jungle birds calling]
Yoo-hoo.
Inka Dinka Doo!
I know you're probably wondering
why we dropped in uninvited and
all, but we have an Inka Dinka
doozy of a problem, here.
[Rumbling]
To break the spell.
The spell.
Bingo.
Right on the nose first guess.
Boy,
you sure do know every thing.
I bet you're the
smartest idol any where.
That's why we're
sure we can count on...
Quiet!
I could do that.
See?
Zip.
[MUFFLED] Throw away the key.
To wake the ape, and move the
sun in the sky, you must plant a
kiss from the apple in his eye.
Huh?
Well, that makes no sense.
Could you repeat that, just so
we've got it right?
[Inka shouting]
Never mind.
I think I got it.
[Klump yawning]
Permission to, uh, relay
intelligence and information,
sir.
Intelligence.
Now, there's a misnomer if I've
ever head one.
Where is my coconut?
Uh, the big monkey wouldn't
release it, sir.
And we said please.
Are you totally incompetent?
How hard can it be to take a
coconut from a sleeping monkey?
Oh,
but he was as awake as a... as...
[Yawning]
You or, uh... I, sir.
Awake?
He seems to be asleep now.
There, ya see?
He's off in the Land of Nod,
helpless as a puppy.
Want us to,
uh... go back, sir?
No.
I think this time we'll all go.
Oh, taking that coconut from a
drowsy Donkey Kong sounds like
too much fun to miss.
[K. Rool cackling]
I don't get it.
[Klump giggling]
Now I get it.
[Krusha laughing]
[K. Rool growling]
Oh, boy.
Oh, boy.
I've gotta tell ya, big buddy.
When you wake up, you gotta
start cutting back on
your banana intake.
When he wakes up... Diddy,
what did the Inka Dinka Doo say?
It said some thing about
apples, and DK's eye.
That doesn't make sense.
What were the exact words?
Uh, wake the ape... Uh, move
the sun and the sky... Plant a
kiss,
oh... From the apple in his eye.
Kind of makes a nice greeting
card, don't ya think?
Apple of his eye.
It means the person he's in love
with, silly, and I think the
answer to that
should be obvious.
It sounds crazy, but so is
every thing else
that's happened today.
Might as well give it a try.
Yeah, good thinking.
[DK snoring]
Maybe it has to be on the lips.
Good idea, Diddy.
DK will be so mad when he finds
out he slept through this.
[Lips smacking]
It looks like your kisses
aren't the right ones, Candy.
Guess you're not
the apple of his eye.
Well, that's the last kiss
you're gettin' from me, Mr.
Donkey Kong.
Go on, lay one on him.
DIDDY: Do I have to?
Every one on the island has
kissed him, and so will you!
Just do it.
[DK snoring]
Next!
I don't have time
for this nonsense.
Every second my factory's
stopped,
I'm kissing away a fortune.
Well, try kissing that instead.
Must I?
I don't normally
kiss on the first date.
If you hope to have your
factory start running again,
yes!
Oh, dear.
[Bluster sputtering]
[DK mumbling]
[DK snoring]
Ew.
Lucky he was asleep for that.
I could try again, after I
practice with Candy for a bit.
[Bluster chuckling]
[Air deflating]
[Munching]
Oh,
how can you eat at a time like this?
Tired or mad,
you still gotta eat.
If it makes you feel any
better, he didn't respond to any
of our kisses either.
[Cranky yawning]
There's got to be a twist to
what the Inka Dinka Doo said.
I guess I'm just
too tired to see it.
Shh!
Cranky, come here.
[Klump yawning]
It's just as we reported before.
Subject is wide awake, sir.
Muttering marsh gas.
It appears that dozing Donkey
Kong is actually awake.
So how does it feel talking
to your ex-girlfriend,
you big baboon?
Keep going.
They're still there,
just watching.
I don't know how long I can
keep this up.
Klump, the super close up pair.
Uh, try mine, sir.
Never mind.
Hmm, very interesting.
Yes, just as I thought.
For an unevolved species,
they're clever.
But not as clever as King K.
Rool!
Donkey Kong is
asleep at the switch.
Oh, how much longer do we
have to keep doing this?
Just till those repulsive
reptiles get bored and go home.
Oh, that's not very kind of you,
Cranky.
K. Rool!
Just dropped by to chat with
my good buddy Donkey Kong.
[K. Rool laughing]
DIDDY: "Step back,
swamp boy."
Ooh, swamp boy, eh?
Is that the best you
could come up with?
"I'm a little tired,
that's all."
Oh, believe me.
I understand.
You do look a little sluggish,
and your colour is a little off,
too.
In fact,
you look... How do you say?
Oh, yes.
Comatose.
"Oh, yeah."
Oh, I mean, uh... "Pay no
attention to the monkey
behind the monkey."
Look, boys.
Baboon boy junior was putting
on a little puppet show.
[Chuckling]
Oh, button it.
What do you want, K. Rool?
Must you ask?
Really, Cranky,
I expected better of you.
The Crystal Coconut is coming
home with me, the new commander
and chief of Kongo Bongo, and
there's nothing you tiresome
primates can do about it.
[Candy gasping]
Boys, claim my jewel.
Not so fast, bayou breath.
Ooh, he's a tough little monkey.
Battle stations!
Incomin'!
[Krusha laughing]
Banana slamma'!
Woo, yeah!
I got him, I got him.
No, I don't got him.
[Klump grunting]
Over there.
Jump him!
DIDDY: Take that, and that!
What a breathtaking display
of buffoonery.
End this now, or you'll end up
as matched sets of luggage!
[Klump moaning]
[Diddy laughing]
Look at me!
I did it!
Little old me,
I saved the Coconut!
Charming sentiment, you
pathetic pee-wee.
But I'll be taking custody of
the Coconut from here on.
[DK yawning]
[DK snoring]
[K. Rool shouting]
Sir, look out!
I can't see!
There's apples in my eyes.
[Klump shouting]
[Lips smacking]
Oops.
K. Rool had
apples in his eyes.
That's what the spell meant.
[K. Rool sputtering]
[DK yawning]
DIDDY: He's back.
[K. Rool gasping]
Uh-oh.
This wasn't what I anticipated.
Banana slamma'!
[Rumbling]
[Clock ticking]
[Bells ringing]
Hey,
the clocks are moving again.
Hmm, this is not quite what I
was expecting.
Let's see, where were we?
Oh, right.
Banana slamma'!
[Shouting]
[K. Rool whistling]
Thanks so much for the visit.
I had a simply marvellous time,
but I really must be going.
In that case,
let me show you the door.
[K. Rool yelling]
[K. Rool groaning]
[Shouting]
Leaving so soon?
Too bad.
But Candy, you know I would've
responded to your kisses if I
wasn't sleeping like a baby!
I'm awake now.
You could try again.
Aw, go on, Candy.
Give him a break.
He did cause all this trouble,
but the big lug also saved the
Crystal Coconut.
Oh, all right.
[Candy gasping]
What did I do?
Oh, DK, speak to me!
Gotcha!
