Kirby's too exhausted to put up a fight!
[Kirby attempts to inhale, but Masher's attacks are too fast to give him a chance to do so and quickly pummel him to the point of badly injuring him]
TTiff
[gasps] NO! [Masher closes in on the injured Kirby] Get up, Kirby!
[Meta Knight attempts to save Kirby, but Masher smacks him hard against the hill's wall]
SKSword Knight & Blade Knight
[rushing over to Meta Knight] Meta Knight!
It whupped Meta Knight quick.
laughs You ain't seen nothin' yet.
[Knuckle Joe leaps down, tosses away his business suit, and charges in to join in Masher's beatdown of Kirby]
TTiff
Knuckle Joe! [starts shedding tears] Please don't do it.
Get ready, Kirby. Your time is up! See how ya like this! Vulcan Jab, Vulcan Jab, Vulcan Jab! (starts pounding on Kirby as well)
One bad guy was enough, Tiff. How can Kirby win two against one?
[Masher and Knuckle Joe continue pounding on Kirby until he's slammed into the base of a nearby hill]
TTiff
Knuckle Joe, please stop!
[Masher floats back down onto the ground and Knuckle Joe approaches Kirby]
[Kirby struggles to get back on his feet, but is unable to even stand]
[Tiff and Tuff gasp and Kirby still struggles to stand]
[leaps in the air to attack] Smash Punch! Kirby, suck it up!
[Kirby reacts and stands up just in time to inhale Knuckle Joe's Smash Punch, transforming into Fighter Kirby and restoring his strength]
[Kirby lands and mimics Knuckle Joe's nose rub]
Now we got a real fight. Alright Masher, do your stuff.
[Masher swings both its spiked ball and handle of its flail quickly and continuously. Then Knuckle Joe leaps up and attacks Masher]
[Knuckle Joe's sudden betrayal against Masher takes everyone by surprise]
[Knuckle Joe's Vulcan Jabs eventually knock Masher Down. King Dedede and Escargoon drive down to approach Knuckle Joe]
[in reaction to Knuckle Joe's sudden betrayal against Masher] You was supposed to clobber Kirby, not mess with Masher!
[everyone reacts in surprise]
It took a long time to plan, but it was worth it. I'm a monster hunter now, and I wanted to bag one of the big ones. That meant goin' after Masher!
TTiff
You didn't work for them. You were only pretending to work for Nightmare Enterprises!
Yeah, I figured the company wasn't gonna let me anywhere near their really strong monsters, so I just sent them my resume.
Hmmm. So you hunted down Masher... with a suit and tie?
That's De-de-de-devious! [laughing]
What are you laughing at? Knuckle Joe just made you look like a knucklehead.
AAAAH! You two-timer! Nobody monkeys with Triple D!
[growls angrily] Masher, pummel them two pole-cats! I want ya to grind 'em into grit!
[Masher stands up and angrily glares at both Knuckle Joe and Kirby]
Ready for some tag-team attacks, Kirby?
Poyo. [mimics Knuckle Joe's nose rub]
We thought you were workin' for the bad guys.
TTiff
You were like a double agent, Joe.
Yeah, well I couldn't have done it without my pal Kirby.
Hunting down monsters throughout the universe... Joe, your father would be proud.
Kirby. Anytime ya need a partner, just give me a call. I'll be there in a flash. See ya! [flies off]
Poyo! [waves goodbye to Knuckle Joe then mimics his nose rub]
Ah! Hey, Tiff, what's wrong? How come you look so mad?
TTiff
You know why! You were fighting!
We were just helping this old tree.
Yeah, Whispy Woods asked us to.
TTiff
Oh, really? So Whispy Woods asked you to kick out those animals?
TTiff
Of course not. Because those animals helped that tree by living in it!
TITuff, Iro, Spikehead And Honey
Huh!?
CCoo
Acore provides us with a place to stay. And in exchange, we harm those insects and enrich the soil.
TTiff
That's right. Kicking them out was a mistake!
TITuff, Iro, Spikehead And Honey
[sadly] Aw...
We were only trying to help...
Well, ya didn't. Thanks to you, that tree's even worse off than before!
CCoo
You helped them too, Tokkori.
TTiff
Please don't fall, Acore!
It's too much! We can't hold 'im!
TTiff
Yes, we can, just push!
We can't let our friend come crashin' to the ground, mates!
[meanwhile, King Dedede and Escargoon are watching Kirby and co.'s valiant efforts to keep Acore standing from atop a nearby cliff]
[laughing] Them do-gooders think we gave up!
They're always overestimatin' our common sense. [has the Grasshopper Eavesdropper detonate near a nearby waterfall, causing a flood in one final attempt to destroy Acore]
TTiff
Kabu here is not only extremely ancient, but he's also the wisest-- [notices the tourists throwing coins into Kabu's insides and gasps] Hey, no throwing coins!
[the tourists continue to throw coins into Kabu anyway]
Let them folks toss away. It's free money.
[the tourists start painting graffiti all over Kabu]
Tiff, look what they're doin'! [Tiff notices what the tourists are now doing to Kabu] Knock it off!
TTiff
Kabu's one of the greatest treasures in Dream Land!
[the tourists bicker back at her in a foreign language]
Chill out. We do this every place we visit.
Ah, who cares? It's just a talking tiki. Let's move it!
[King Dedede laughing]
[the tourists prepare to leave for their next destination]
TTiff
I'm sorry, Kabu. We'll come back and clean you up.
I could use some moisturizer too.
TTiff
They must be under a spell. Knock it off; King Dedede is using this game to hurt Kirby!
RFRowlin [Fake]
It's too late Tiff, you can't break my spell. [laughs evilly]
You impostor! How dare you pretend to be me.
TTiff
So then you're the real author?
You've been hoodwinked by her. She didn't create Pappy Pottey!
[Cut to the figures on Iro’s windowsill growing to life, then the small circular, square and triangular shaped fighter figures were now on his bed, causing him to stir awake]
[Iro sees his grown-to-life figures in front of him.]
[Cue the figures causing chaos inside the homes of Cappy Town]
'[Cut to the figures growing to life on everyone’s windowsills, including Kirby’s]
[Cut to Tuff’s bedroom, where his three figures were surrounding him, making him backed up against his headboard]
[The figures approach Tuff, and Tuff tries whacking his pillow around to shoo them away]
[Cut to Sir Ebrum and Lady Like’s bedroom, where a figure lands hard on Sir Ebrum’s side of the bed, making him jolt awake screaming]
[Lady Like sees the alive figures all around the floor surrounding the bed and screams too]
[Tiff runs in the bedroom screaming, with figures of her own chasing her, and hops on the bed with Sir Ebrum and Lady Like]
TTiff
They’re monsters! I knew it!
We should have Kirby inhale these intruders!
We need him to come rescue us!
[the altered opening of King Dedede's new show starts playing, which is a "Dedede-ified" version of the show's opening]
[singing to the opening] Dedede! That's the name you should know! Dedede! He's the king of the show! You'll holler and hoot, he'll give Kirby the boot! Dedede's the one!
TTiff
[reacting to the new show's altered opening] Hey! Kirby's supposed to be the star!
Yeah, now it's about Dedede.
[quietly] Sire, shush! You're being recorded, keep your trap shut. Looks like they drew these with their eyes closed.
Remind me to fire that no-talent character designer!
Y'know, your head's even fatter than I thought it was.
TTiff
Okay, guys. Get ready.
Tiff, I am nervous. I have never... acted before.
TTiff
Don't worry. You'll do great.
