Hooray for Holly-Kongo Bongo

Hooray for Holly-Kongo Bongo is the 27th episode of Donkey Kong Country television series, and it aired on January 7, 1998.

Plot Synopsis
Bluster is making a movie. K. Rool decides to get in on the act, but for another reason: to steal the Crystal Coconut. The others think Donkey Kong took the Coconut, and he gets banished (but returns to prove his innocence).

The episode begins with Donkey Kong trying to impress Candy Kong, his love, by lifting two heavy barrels. The ape collapses by all the weight, and Candy sits on one of the barrels, continuing to read a magazine of hers. Candy shows the magazine to Diddy, letting him see the "talented, dreamy, movie star," Leonardo DeAperio. Donkey Kong, jealous, asks what makes him so special, but Diddy replies with "movie star looks, movie star fame, movie star money..." To give Candy more of an interest in him, Donkey Kong tells her that he has appeared in some movies of his own. Suddenly, Bluster Kong exits his factory explains that he has a parcel to send by air mail. Candy inquires if she can do anything while he is gone, but the ape simply replies by screaming in her ear.

Bluster Kong carries the package to Funky's Flights, where he asks Funky Kong to send the box by air. The Kong refuses, explaining that he has given up flying and has decided to write a screenplay. Bluster realizes that making movies can help him earn a lot of money, so he asks Funky what he can do to produce one. He explains that Bluster must first start out with a script, and asks if he wants to buy his. Bluster declines to purchase it for money, and decides to make his own, with Funky helping him out.

At the Treehouse, Diddy and Donkey Kong notice Bluster as he finds locations for his movie. Donkey Kong, unaware that Bluster had wanted to make a film, laughs as he learns that the ape is planning to make his own movie, but is stopped by Diddy, who reminds him how Candy would be more impressed by him if he were in this movie.
