Some time after the events of ''Donkey Kong Country'', [[Donkey Kong]] is relaxing at a beach, sitting on a chair while drinking a banana milkshake. [[Funky Kong]] is busy surfing waves among the seagulls. [[Cranky Kong]] walks up to Donkey Kong and hits him on the head with his cane. He asks Donkey Kong why he is sitting around if he's a "big star". Donkey Kong replies that even stars need time off. Cranky says that he never took breaks, "[[Donkey Kong (game)|whisking off maidens and throwing barrels seven days a week]]". Donkey Kong tells him to leave him alone and stop pestering him, so Cranky leaves. Donkey Kong then goes to sleep in his chair. | Some time after the events of ''Donkey Kong Country'', [[Donkey Kong]] is relaxing at a beach, sitting on a chair while drinking a banana milkshake.
