+==="Barrel, Barrel... Who's Got the Barrel"===
+The first appearance of Eddie on the show was in "[[Barrel, Barrel... Who's Got the Barrel]]". In this episode, [[Bluster Kong]] steals the [[Crystal Coconut]] in an attempt to impress [[Candy Kong]] and promptly loses it in a barrel which is shipped to [[Funky's Flights]]. Funky takes the barrel on board his plane and ends up losing it in the [[Gorilla Glacier|White Mountains]], where it is found by Eddie. [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] come looking for the coconut and discover Eddie bashing it with his club; they then trade him a matchstick for it and leave. Due to complications involving Bluster Kong and [[Klump (character)|Klump]], the Kongs end losing the coconut once more and it briefly returns to Eddie's possession before it is taken by some [[Kritter]]s and given to [[King K. Rool]]. In the end, the Kongs eventually reclaim the coconut. Eddie shows up at Cranky's cabin and causes a ruckus.
-'''Eddie the Mean Old Yeti''' or just '''Eddie the Yeti''' or '''Eddie''' for short, is a recurring character on the [[Donkey Kong Country (show)|''Donkey Kong Country'' animated series]].
+==="Cranky's Tickle Tonic"===
+In the episode "[[Cranky's Tickle Tonic]]", Eddie's loud banging of his club causes all the inhabitants of [[Donkey Kong Island|Kongo Bongo Island]] to be unable to sleep. To stop him, [[Cranky Kong]] and [[Funky Kong]] create a potion which gives Eddie a case of the chuckles, although King K. Rool (having come up the mountain to shut Eddie up himself) consumes the tonic instead. King K. Rool's laughing manages to cheer Eddie up and he stops banging his club.
-The first appearance of Eddie on the show was in the episode "[[Barrel, Barrel, Who's Got the Barrel]]". In this episode, [[Bluster Kong]], wanting to once again impress [[Candy Kong]] steals the [[Crystal Coconut]]. Unfortunately Bluster loses the coconut in a nearby barrel, before he can grab the barrel is shipped to [[Funky's Flights]]. Taking the barrel on board his plane, Funky ends losing in the [[Gorilla Glacier|White Mountains]], where it is found by Eddie.
+==="I Spy with My Hairy Eye"===
+The subsequent episodes have Eddie make minor appearances in the show. In "[[I Spy with My Hairy Eye]]", Eddie falls in love with K. Rool's [[Candy Clone]], and it is revealed that the raging responsible for his club-banging stems from loneliness.
-[[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy]], looking for the coconut end up coming upon Eddie bashing repeatedly with his club. Tricking Eddie into giving them the coconut in exchange for a matchstick the Kongs take off leaving Eddie with his newfound "treasure".
+==="Ape-Nesia"===
+Eddie briefly appears in the episode "[[Ape-Nesia]]" where he is seen complaining after an amnesia-struck [[Donkey Kong]] stole his favorite club, leaving only a banana.
-Unfortunately due to complications involving Bluster Kong and [[Klump (character)|Klump]] the Kongs end losing the coconut, which ends up back in the possession of Eddie; who promptly loses it to several [[Kritter]]s who give it to their leader, [[King K. Rool]] (the Kongs luckily get it back though).
+==="The Big Chill Out"===
+In the episode "[[The Big Chill Out]]", Eddie is shown to be an employee for Donkey Kong's and Diddy Kong's [[Coconut Chill]] business.
-Eddie's next appearance on the show would be in the episode "[[Cranky's Tickle Tonic]]". In this episode Eddie's club banging has gotten so loud that all the inhabitants of [[Donkey Kong Island|Kongo Bongo Island]] can't get any sleep. It seems Eddie's club banging stems from rage, so as a solution to everyone's problem [[Cranky Kong]] and [[Funky Kong]] create a potion which will give Eddie a case of the chuckles.
+==="Follow That Coconut"===
+In "[[Follow That Coconut]]", it is revealed that Cranky, Eddie, and Bluster once discussed a genius soccer play, and when Cranky forgets it just before the annual soccer match between the Kongs and the Kremlings, he visits Eddie. The yeti had also forgotten the play, as well, but when Cranky persists, he remembers that he had written the play down in a journal, which he then shows to Cranky.
-Unfortunately the potion ends up being consumed by [[King K. Rool]] (who had come up the mountain to shut-up Eddie himself). The subsequent laughing fit K. Rool has, surprisingly makes even Eddie laugh.
+==="It's a Wonderful Life"===
+Eddie makes another appearance in "[[It's a Wonderful Life]]." He appears only during Donkey Kong's dream, under the name "Eddie the Guardian Angel Yeti", after Donkey Kong wishes he does not want to exist.
-After these two main appearances Eddie's role in the show was reduced slightly. In the episode "[[The Big Chill Out]]" Eddie is shown to be an employee for Donkey and Diddy's Coconut Chill business. Eddie also briefly appears in the episode "[[Ape-Nesia]]" where he is seen complaining after an amnesia struck [[Donkey Kong]] stole his favorite club.
+==="Message in a Bottle Show"===
+Eddie the Mean Old Yeti's final appearance in the series is in "[[Message in a Bottle Show]]". In this episode, he is invited to a banquet to remember the times with [[Donkey Kong]]. At the banquet, Eddie announces that he thinks Donkey Kong is "cool," and then shows flashbacks of them together.
-The episode "[[I Spy with My Ape Eye]]" shows that, like how Eddie's club-banging stems from his anger, Eddie's anger comes from loneliness. In the aforementioned episode Eddie ends up falling in love with K. Rool's [[Robot Candy Clone]]. In the episode "[[It's a Wonderful Life]]" (based on the movie of the same name) Eddie, oddly takes on the form of Donkey Kong's guardian angel.
