It was the eleventh episode to air in North America. The episode stars [[Donkey Kong]], who saves [[Bluster Kong]]'s life.

Bluster Kong soon enters the factory and commands the ape to leave, but Donkey Kong continues to sing, ignoring him. Bluster becomes angry because of this, so he begins to smash the buttons on the nearby machine's controls. Suddenly, a sign from the machine smashes him in the face, and Bluster is forced into a barrel. The barrel moves down a conveyor belt, where it is taken to be smashed. Just before Bluster and the barrel are destroyed, Donkey Kong bumps the button on the controls while dancing and stops the machine. Bluster Kong is saved, and realizes that Donkey Kong is a "champ among chimps." Bluster pledges that he will always try to protect Donkey Kong from personal injury for as long as he lives. | ||
Later in the jungle, Donkey Kong tells Diddy about Bluster's oath. As the two stop to talk on a tree branch, Bluster rides above them in his helicopter and offers Donkey Kong a ride to his destination. Donkey Kong climbs up into the helicopter, leaving Diddy Kong alone. The young monkey tries to grab the rope, but misses and falls on [[General Klump]], who is walking with [[King K. Rool|King K. Rool's]] [[Kritter]] minions. Diddy runs away before the crocodile notices him, and then Klump spots Donkey Kong flying away in a helicopter with Bluster. This makes him think that something is up, so he heads to King K. Rool's hideout. | Later in the jungle, Donkey Kong tells Diddy about Bluster's oath.

Donkey, Diddy, and Funky Kong set up another plan to trick Bluster. Donkey Kong rides in Funky's plane, performing several dangerous stunts. While he flies, the ape begins to wonder where Bluster is, not knowing that he has been captured. He also notices Dixie's pet crab in the plane and begins to talk to it. Eventually, the plane flies out of control, and the ape begins to spiral to the ground. Just before crashing, Cranky's hologram from the [[Crystal Coconut]] appears, and he tells the primate how to control the plane. Donkey Kong follows his advice and safely flies over the island. | Donkey, Diddy, and Funky Kong set up another plan to trick Bluster.

Back at King K. Rool's hideout, the crocodile king interrogates Bluster Kong, wanting to know what he was plotting against him. Bluster has no answer, as he has only been trying to help Donkey Kong. King K. Rool threatens him by telling him that he will be forced to work in his factory if he does not explain his "plans." Bluster thinks of what to do, and then asks for a last request.

As he sings, he invites the Kremlings to sing along, and Krusha and two Kritters, seeing no harm in it, join in. | ||
Donkey Kong finishes driving Funky's plane, wondering why Bluster hasn't come to the rescue yet. Cranky's hologram appears again, and the old ape tells Donkey Kong that he has seen a vision of Bluster at King K. Rool's hideout through the Crystal Coconut. The Kongs head out to rescue him, and Donkey Kong uses Funky's plane to get to the hideout. | Donkey Kong finishes driving Funky's plane, wondering why Bluster hasn't come to the rescue yet.

Meanwhile, Bluster | Meanwhile, Bluster and the Kremlings continue to sing Donkey Kong's song. After the song is over, the ape calls for one more time, and the Kremlings join in. King K. Rool, infuriated, bellows for them to stop singing and orders Bluster to walk onto the platform leading to the factory. Just before the Kremling sends the ape to the factory, Donkey and Diddy come to the rescue in Funky's plane. After they park the vehicle, King K. Rool asks where Klump is. Krusha hears him, but does not come, only asking him if what he had asked was a rhetorical question. Bluster decides that he truly is in debt to Donkey Kong, but then realizes that the ape is not to happy about it. Just as the ape tells him to get in the plane, King K. Rool sends out dozens of Kremling soldiers to attack. King K. Rool is prepared to send them to his factory to work for the rest of their lives, but is soon bitten by Dixie Kong's crab, who had exited the plane and climbed onto his back. | ||

As the crocodile screams in pain, Donkey Kong knocks him out, causing him to land on Krusha. While these two Kremlings are down, however, the Kongs are still surrounded by King K. Rool's many minions. | As the crocodile screams in pain, Donkey Kong knocks him out, causing him to land on Krusha. While these two Kremlings are down, however, the Kongs are still surrounded by King K. Rool's many minions. Diddy figures that only a miracle can save them, and Donkey figures that it would be the out-of-control minecart Klump was riding on, and sure enough, Klump rides through the room in the mine cart, running out of control. The cart frightens the Kritter soldiers, and the enemies quickly scram as the Kongs get in the plane and fly away. | ||
The Kongs are later seen at Bluster Barrelworks, where Bluster decides that he and Donkey Kong are now even, as his crab diversion had saved their lives. Bluster also announces that he thinks the ape is a hazard to his health, and then walks away. The episode ends with Dixie Kong asking the apes if they have seen her pet crab. The Kongs simply smile at each other, just as Bluster Kong is heard screaming from a bite from the crab. | The Kongs are later seen at Bluster Barrelworks, where Bluster decides that he and Donkey Kong are now even, as his crab diversion had saved their lives.
