Plot Synopsis
The episode begins with Donkey, Diddy, and Candy Kong sitting near Bluster Barrelworks in a heat wave. The Kongs are very hot, so Diddy Kong suggests that they go swimming at the beach. Unfortunately, Candy cannot lay around with Donkey and Diddy all day because she has to work, and heads into the barrelworks factory immediately. Donkey Kong wonders why she was acting so strangely, but then Bluster Kong interrupts the ape and tells him that Candy is tired of him and "wants a monkey who's made something out of himself." Donkey Kong defends himself by explaining that he is going to be the future ruler of the island according to the Crystal Coconut, but Bluster could care less, stating that he does not need any "Crystal Coconut mumbo-jumbo to win Candy's hand."

Diddy fights back by saying "Yeah, all you need is a mummy who owns a barrel factory!," but Donkey Kong becomes discouraged and down. He wonders if Bluster is right, and that Candy only has an interest in him because of the Crystal Coconut. Just then, Cranky Kong shows up and tells them that he has been looking for them all over the island. He takes them to his cabin to speak to them.
