All those explosions were simply too much for him to take!
[Dedede and Escargoon whimpering]
Hard for him. What was left.
[gasps, then cried] KIRBY!!! [whimpering as he starts having flashbacks of Kirby in his mind. Back in reality, he tears up] ...I'm sorry!..
[Dedede and Escargoon start crying in front of Kirby's grave, while Tiff, Tuff, and the Cappies, still crestfallen, are standing in front of it]
Escargoon
Forgive us, Kirby! That prank was His Majesty's idea, but I was the one who came up with the time bomb part! For once I wish I weren't so brilliant!
[As he hitting Escargoon on the head] Now I wish you was dumb as me! [crying continues]
Escargoon
If only that were possible.
I never would have played that prank if I never knew this was gonna happen...I wish I could go and take it all back!
Unfortunately, it's too late.
But there's got to be something I can do.
You can't do start by promising not to play any more practical jokes on your subjects!
I PROMISE!! [crying] Here, Kirby. This one ain't got no time bomb.
I'm sure he'd like that a lot.
I MISS YOU KIRBY OL' BUDDY! [cries]
I think Dedede is really sorry.
Looks like he learned his lesson.
[Kirby then jumps out of his fake grave, and eats the watermelon. Dedede and Escargoon scream]
He even got a hungry ghost!
[Tuff groans]
Escargoon
Kirby's not a ghost. The runt's still alive! A-ha! You were all playing a trick on His Majesty, weren't ya?
[whimpers, then loudly cries tears of joy] I'M GLAD HE'S OKAY!!!
Escargoon
You are?
It was dull bein' ruler of Dream Land before you came along. I need me an enemy!
The king really has changed.
In his own twisted way he cares about Kirby.
[the townsfolk celebrate Kirby's victory]
Escargoon
Every day's Kirby appreciation day.
Huh? Somebody appreciates me too.
Escargoon
Here. Let's see. It's a bill from Nightmare Enterprises. They want 9 million D-Bills for that monster.
[whimpers, then cries loudly] THEY ONLY APPRECIATE MY MONEY!!
[Kirby is hoisted into the air at the end of this episode]
Escargoon
That's easy for him to say. PLEASE DON'T PULL MY TEETH OUT, DOCTOR!!
[Dedede holds Escargoon’s mouth open.
It might be better if you just drill em’ down to the roots!
Escargoon
NO, DOCTOR, PLEASE!
[Kirby, Tiff, Tuff, Iro, Honey, Spikehead, Fololo and Falala were watching it unfold from the windows]
Guess he shoulda brushed more often!
[They all laughed, except Tiff]
I bet you wouldn’t think it was so funny if it was you sitting in that chair...
Escargoon
That maniac drilled so deep, I thought he was gonna strike oil...
[hearty laugh] Serves ya right! I knew that sweet tooth of yours would turn sour someday!
Escargoon
You’re quite a candy fiend yourself, Sire. You could get cavities too, you know.
[laughs] My chompers is way too powerful to get conquered by cavities!
[He shows off his pearly whites to the others]
MBMayor Blustergas, Samo and Kawasaki
Ooooh!
Escargoon
I don't see how you can eat all that sugar and never get a single cavity.
[laughs] And I don't even brush!
Escargoon
You're pushing your luck, Sire!
Maybe you’re just jealous 'cause you’re the cavity kid, huh? [laughs]
I'm afraid we warned you.
If your tooth is zat hurting...
[looming over Tuff] Then you'll have to go see the dentist.
[cut to King Dedede's bedroom]
SAY WHAT?!?!?! To th' dentist?!
Escargoon
But, Sire, you have to get that tooth filled!
Ain't no way you gonna drag me there!
[cut back to Sir Ebrum's family apartment, where Tuff is hanging on to the edge of the couch while Tiff is pulling him]
I told you! I don't wanna go see the dentist! WAAAAAAAAH!
[cut back to Dedede's bedroom where Escargoon is trying to pull him away from the bed]
I'd rather dive head-first into the Booma-Dooma Volcano!
[cut back to Sir Ebrum's family apartment again]
[cut back to Dedede's room again]
[cut back to Sir Ebrum's family apartment again]
[Cut to Sir Ebrum, Lady Like and Tiff chasing after Tuff in the castle’s hallways, with Kirby happily trailing behind]
I don’t wanna get my teeth drilled!
But if you don’t get it fixed, the pain will get worser!
I don’t care, I’ll take my chances!
Once you get the filling, it won’t hurt at all!
[Cut to another part of the castle’s hallways where King Dedede was being dragged by Escargoon and the Waddle Dees to the dentist, with Waddle Doo on the king’s back]
Escargoon
Doctor Yabui won't hurt you, Sire.
He had you shrieking like a smoke detector!
Escargoon
But you’re so completely insensitive, you probably won’t feel a thing!
I bet you and them crafty cavities is conspiring against me! [cries]
Escargoon
Kirby's smashing up Cappy Town like a pink wrecking ball!
[laughs] He sees it's more fun to be a heel than a hero! But there's only room for one mischief-maker in this kingdom, and that's me!
Escargoon
Well now the Cappies are more scared of Kirby than they are you, Sire.
Escargoon
Maybe they're just afraid of Kirby because he's a dynamic-demonic ball of fire, and you're just a big bellied out of shape ball of blubber! [gets hit it with Dedede's mallet]
Now you're out of shape. I'm checking this out!
[Which leads King Dedede and Escargoon to drive into Cappy Town with their Royal Racecar]
I heard a rumor that Kirby's raisin' a ruckus 'round here.
He's public enemy number one.
He's destroying Cappy Town!
Escargoon
I told you Kirby's scarier than you are.
[Kirby throws a pan out the window, breaking it]
He does look kinda scary.
Escargoon
[laughs] Who knew a half-pint could be so horrifying?
I ain't gonna let that pipsqueak out-mean me! [He jumps out of Royal Racecar]
Escargoon
Wait, what are you gonna do!?
I'm gonna prove I'm more troublesome than Kirby is! [He enters in Kawasaki's restaurant]
Escargoon
Sire, I was only kidding!
[Kirby's evil state up-close for himself and Dedede gasped]
Escargoon
You're much worse than Kirby.
[Kirby's evil state up-close for himself, Escargoon screams and hides behind Dedede]
He destroyed headquarters...
[King Dedede's Royal Racecar crashed into Chief Bookem's police station, Doron escapes and exploding violently]
Escargoon
Thanks, Kirby.
Now what am I gonna drive?
[All the cappies talking at once]
I always knew Kirby was trouble, but this takes the cake. That boy's gone ballistic!
[At night, Dedede's castle]
[offscreen] I ain't gonna let Kirby to show me up.
This is a surprise, D-Meister. Why the late night call?
Tell me who's the baddest bad guy in Dream Land?!
Is that a trick question?
You're supposed to say it's me!
But them Cappies thinks it's Kirby!
No. How come? [As Dedede angrily growls]
HE SMASHED UP CAPPY TOWN!!
Escargoon
[As Dedede growls furiously] He's tearing through this kingdom on a debris spree!
[laughs] Sounds to me like Kirby found your Demon Frog.
Don't you recall the monster you ordered a couple months back? [imitates frog noises]
Yeah. Now I remember that frog.
[End of flashback]
Escargoon
Ah, you mean that frog?
If the Demon Frog really is inside Kirby, then there's no way he can be held responsible for attacking Cappy Town, because it was really the Demon Frog forcing him to do it.
[cut to where Meta Knight, Tiff, and Tuff eavesdrop and learn the reason for Kirby's evil behavior]
Escargoon
[offscreen] Kirby's being controlled by that evil amphibian.
[whispered] I should have guessed Nightmare Enterprises did this!
[whispered] We must find a way to make that Demon Frog leave Kirby.
[whispered] Let's go and find Kirby.
[whispered] Yeah! [She, Tuff, and Meta Knight runs off]
