[[Donkey Kong]] is sitting in front of his mirror, moping that he feels like he "has a case of the uglies", but [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] says he looks fine. DK isn't sure, because he promised to treat [[Candy Kong|Candy]] to a very formal luncheon today and says that he "can't show up looking like a big hairy ape".

Just then, [[Bluster Kong|Bluster]] arrives in the Barrelcopter, telling Candy that it's time for her to get back to work. While he's at it, though, he offers Candy to go see the [[List of Implied Entertainment#Banana Slammers|Banana Slammers]] with him. But Candy declines, saying she's finishing her lunch with DK. Bluster demands Candy to tell him "What ''do'' you see in this big hairy ape?" Having a bit of difficulty finding an answer, Candy replies, "He's a big hairy ape, and you're not." Bluster leaves, mocking Candy's answer, but then decides to himself that "if that's what Candy wants, that's what she'll get!" | ||
The next day, Bluster arrives at [[Bluster Barrelworks|the barrel factory]], wearing a [[Banana Flip]] (a large [[Elvis]]-style toupee that the Banana Slammers also wear), expecting that Candy won't resist him now. Instead, Candy is repulsed, Angrily telling him "I wouldn't go out with you even if that ''was'' your real hair." This plan having failed, Bluster asks himself what it is that makes Donkey Kong so special that it's attractive to Candy and he then decides that it's the [[Crystal Coconut]]. | The next day, Bluster arrives at [[Bluster Barrelworks|the barrel factory]], wearing a [[Banana Flip]] (a large [[Elvis]]-style toupee that the Banana Slammers also wear), expecting that Candy won't resist him now.

That night, Bluster sneaks into [[Cranky's Cabin]] and steals the Coconut. Meanwhile, DK wakes up from a bad dream leading him and Diddy rush over to Cranky's Cabin, banging on his door. DK explains to Cranky that he just had a nightmare about someone stealing the Crystal Coconut, but it's only then that Cranky discovers the Coconut is missing and DK is surprised that his dream was for real. Cranky suspects that [[King K. Rool]] has stolen the Coconut, but then DK finds Bluster's calling card on the floor, thus revealing to them that Bluster stole it. Knowing that Bluster doesn't the danger he's put the island in, DK and Diddy vow to retrieve the Coconut. | That night, Bluster sneaks into [[Cranky's Cabin]] and steals the Coconut.

Soon, at the barrel factory, Bluster is attempting to impress Candy by showing off the Coconut in his possession, but she merely thinks it's a fake and causes the barrel-making machine to knock it out of his hands and into the bad barrel conveyor belt. DK and Diddy show up just in time to get it off, but then Bluster body-slams DK and he drops the Coconut. The Coconut ends up in a barrel marked "007", which is then loaded onto the [[Barrel Rocket]] and blasted off before DK can stop it. | Soon, at the barrel factory, Bluster is attempting to impress Candy by showing off the Coconut in his possession, but she merely thinks it's a fake and causes the barrel-making machine to knock it out of his hands and into the bad barrel conveyor belt.

Meanwhile, over at his hideout, King K. Rool is busy constructing his barrel satellite when [[General Klump]] comes in, reporting that he and his troops have not yet been able to seize the Crystal Coconut. K. Rool explains (to the viewers) that he needs the Coconut as a power source for his new invention, a Supersonic Satellite (made out of barrels) that will work as "the ultimate spying machine". Upon Klump's explanation that the Coconut was last seen being launched into orbit, K. Rool demands him to go find out where it's headed. | Meanwhile, over at his hideout, King K.

Back at the barrelworks, Donkey and Diddy are demanding Bluster to tell them where Barrel 007 is going. Bluster doesn't want to, saying he doesn't want them to go off being the heroes again while he is made to look like a jerk ("you already do," Candy comments). Frustrated with this, DK and Diddy leave to go look themselves, but Bluster hints to them that they should look around the beach. Just after DK and Diddy leave, though, Klump and some [[Kritter]]s come in, demanding the Coconut. Bluster at first tries to fib his way out of the interrogation by claiming he never had the Coconut, then refuses to tell them where it's been transported, but is forced to admit it when the Kritters ready their [[Klaptrap]]-Blasters. Reading Bluster's clipboard, Klump finds out that Barrel 007 was sent to [[Funky's Flights]]. | Back at the barrelworks, Donkey and Diddy are demanding Bluster to tell them where Barrel 007 is going.

It was perhaps for this same reason the show's intro sequence was shortened down on the channel; a shot of Eddie burning his hand from this episode was among the shots in the theme song that were cut. | ||

(By coincidence, at the time the show was in production, Rareware, the company behind the ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' games, was at work on a [[Nintendo 64]] game based on the most recent Bond film at the time, ''{{wp|GoldenEye}}''.) The barrel would reappear in "[[Bluster's Sale Ape-Stravaganza]]". | ||
