Meta KnightKing Dedede may be a despicable dictator, but you've got to admit he's got some funny shtick.
Oh, please. I've had toothaches funnier than King Dedede.

Meta KnightKing Dedede may be a despicable dictator, but you've got to admit he's got some funny shtick.
Oh, please. I've had toothaches funnier than King Dedede.
Meta KnightOur deeds bind us to fate as surely as the sun sets.
Could you say that in English?
You know what to do.
[Kirby begins his inhaling, catching Slice n' Splice off guard]
So you want it?! Take it! Here!
[Kirby stops inhaling, catching Slice n' Splice off guard again and causing him to drop the moon rod, which he then happily inhales and transforms afterwards]
All right!
Nice goin', Kirby!
Yeah!
Meta KnightKirby has transformed. He is now Cutter Kirby! Cutter Kirby can battle his opponent with the cutter on his cap.
Meta KnightIt appears you were able to shamboozle us all, Escargoon.
By jove! You suddenly had me believing in ghosts.
Tuff, I'm ashamed of you!
King Dedede is always doing stuff to scare us. Why shouldn't we scare him?
Poyo!
Well, I guess bad things happen to bad kings!
[Everyone in the room but Meta Knight burst out laughing]
You're a kid.
Don't let that fool ya. My name's Knuckle Joe.
Knuckle Joe?
Meta KnightWhat!?
Cut the gab. Where's the Star Warrior?
[Tiff and Tuff gasp]
I know he's here. Where is he?
[Dedede and Escargoon both grunt in confusion]
Majesty, he means...
Hm. [laughs] I happen to know just the Star Warrior you lookin' for.
Then spill your guts, tubby.
Uhhh, tubby?
Hey wise guy, this is the king you're talking about! You can't insult him because he's fat! Or because he's a big ignoramus! Or because he's a tightwad...[gets hammered by Dedede]
[clears throat] Sonny, I know just the Star Warrior you lookin' for, and his name's Kirby.
Look out... Kirby.
Meta KnightThere is no reason to battle Kirby, my friend. The one you seek is me.
Who are you?
Meta KnightI am the Star Warrior who defeated... your father.
He wasn't a father! He was a... weakling!
Meta KnightIn this case, I am glad that he is gone, so that he doesn't have to see the monster you have become.
What? I ain't no monster!
Meta KnightAnyone who abandons his reason, and lives only by hatred, is a monster.
Huh?
Knuckle Joe... What we do makes us monsters. And look what you've done to Kirby.
That's what a monster would do.
Wrong! I am not a monster!
Meta KnightI am not so sure. You lived on hatred. And that is what eNeMeE loves.
I told ya, Meta Knight... I'm not a monster.
Meta KnightI know, Joe. I know.
We should have stayed to protect Kirby.
[mumbling] Our promise.
We're sorry, kids. We won't let it happen again.
That's okay. The only reason you two were reckless was because you knew Meta Knight was in trouble.
You guys sure are loyal to him. How'd you meet him?
Poyo.
[mumbling] Long time ago.
Back when Meta Knight and the Star Warriors were battling Nightmare's monster armies. (begins flashback) The struggle turned the whole galaxy into a wasteland. To survive, we became bandits.
[Meta Knight is running up the side of the canyon when Blade Knight and Sword Knight step in his way]
Meta KnightOut of my way. Let me pass!
Oh, we'll be happy to let you pass, for a price.
[Blade Knight mumbling]
Meta KnightI have no time for your games. The monster that is chasing me is truly dangerous.
We're dangerous too.
Meta KnightI warn you. Leave now while you still have a chance.
[WolfWrath's howl is heard above all three as it leaps down and attacks by surprise]
Away! Away! [mumbling]
[Sword Knight attacks but is thrown aside by WolfWrath. It spits a fireball at them only for it to be reflected back by Meta Knight]
Meta KnightRun. Quickly! [Blade Knight and Sword Knight hide as he then fights back against WolfWrath and ultimately forces it into a nearby lake as the flashback ends]
We were just a pair of lousy crooks.
Meta Knight [mumbling] rescued us.
So that's why you follow him.
'Cause he saved you both.
[about the weapons hung on the wall of their master's living room] Those things on the wall... We used them to rob and steal. Now they remind us of what fools we were before we met Meta Knight.
Brings back memories, don't it, Blade?
[mumbling]
[last flashback of the episode begins, showing both Sword and Blade kneeling behind Meta Knight]
Meta KnightSo. Are you two sure you want to join me?
You're [mumbling] great warrior.
We want to make your cause our cause.
Meta KnightI will tell you what we must do. We must search for a new warrior... one who will defeat eNeMeE and bring justice to our galaxy.
From that moment on, we became Meta Knight's followers.
And, [mumbling] loyal to him.
[both Sword Knight and Blade Knight look on proudly at Kirby's triumphant pose with Galaxia as light from the sky shines down on him. The episode ends without the usual star fade-out animation]
All the trees and all the plants are dying away. That factory's ruined everything. If we only knew this before.
Meta KnightThis kind of destruction is caused by... acid rain.
Acid rain?
Meta KnightIt is created when toxic chemicals contaminate the atmosphere.
We gotta shut that place down... but, I don’t know. I’m not sure anybody will want to as long as they get their free appliances.
Kirby's in trouble!
That monster knows every trick in the book!
Meta KnightYou mean in the cookbook!
Hey, that's a pretty good one!
Yeah! He's Fire Kirby!
Meta KnightNo, that's the heartburn from Kawasaki's cooking.
I finally out-spiced Kirby!
Meta KnightThis attack is far too dangerous! I'm afraid Microphone Kirby's singing...may be his worst attack of all!
Now you tell me!
Meta KnightTiff. Have you ever met that snail before?
Never. I was just being nice to him because he seemed so upset.
Meta KnightHmmm. We've never met, but somehow he knew both of our names.
I think the guy's missing a few marbles.
Meta KnightMaybe so. We'd better keep an eye on him in case his condition worsens.
I wonder if his name really is Escargoon...
[having overheard Tiff & Meta Knight's conversation and realizing they've forgotten him as well] Oh, mercy! This is the darkest day of my life! [runs away, crying]
