Vote of Kong-Fidence

"Vote of Kong-Fidence" is the thirty-fourth episode of the Donkey Kong Country TV Show.

Plot Synopsis
The episode begins with Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong sitting on a tree branch, Diddy shooting bananas out of their peels at the big ape while Donkey Kong brags about how great it is to be the future ruler of Kongo Bongo Island. Diddy Kong states that DK hasn't worked at all, though Donkey Kong is about to state the grievances of his status when Cranky Kong conveniently shouts for him. The two fall out of the tree, Cranky Kong being at its base, and the elderly ape states that King K. Rool stole the Crystal Coconut. DK instantly runs off to get it back.

K. Rool, General Klump, and Krusha are riding in a mine cart back to their base with the Crystal Coconut when Donkey Kong, intercepting them on a vine, snatches the coconut out of K. Rool's hands. The Kremlings give chase, though are confused when they notice DK is leaning on a tree with a banana. Krusha then points out the log blocking the tracks, and the mine cart rams it, dazing the crocodiles. Donkey Kong then eats the banana and heads off.

At Bluster's Barrelworks, Donkey is telling Candy Kong about how he defeated the Kremlings, with Diddy stating that this is the reason DK is future ruler of the island. However, just as Candy begins flirting with him, Bluster enters the conversation, insultingly stating that DK has no qualifications for the position. Candy then states that, "When it comes to big, brave, and good-looking, DK gets my vote!", and they walk away, leaving Bluster to think about the possible results of an actual election.

Donkey and Diddy are then at Cranky's Cabin, with Diddy playing "golf" (the ball being a banana, and the hole being DK's mouth). However, Cranky walks in, reading a book, and trips on Donkey Kong. The ape then gets mad, and has DK clean the cabin to make himself useful. Bluster then barges in, demanding an explanation from Cranky about how DK is the future ruler of the island. Cranky replied that it was a good question, though he states nothing more than that and demands Bluster leave. However, Bluster then demands that an election be held, so the island's future ruler can be chosen fairly. Cranky likes the idea, but decides to ask Inka Dinka Doo about it for his approval. He does so, the idol stating that, "Everyone is in the running, to make the outcome all the more stunning." He interprets this answer as a yes and tells the news to Donkey Kong, who is waiting outside. However, General Klump is listening to this, and heads off to report the information to King K. Rool.

Back at the Kremling's hideout, K. Rool is "finishing Mozart's unfinished symphony" when Klump arrives, telling him the news. K. Rool still believes he is the true ruler of the island, though he decides to run after considering the scenario if he were elected.

Donkey Kong is rummaging through Cranky's fridge, eventually emerging and carrying several bananas when an advertisement for Bluster's campaign airs on a television.
