[In the morning, at the Castle]
Dedede's a rotten boss to work for. That I can't deny. He yells and screams and criticizes, no matter how I try. I deserve a raise, but the king refuses. All I ever get are bumps and bruises! He's a grouch. He's a grump. But I stay. Maybe I'll be king one day.
[King Dedede suddenly looms over Escargoon, but something about the former seems different; he's acting much nicer and more patient than normal]
So, I'm a grouch and a grump and a rotten boss, huh?
[Blushes nervously] I wasn't talking about you. It was a different tyrant.
That's okay.
Ah! [Exclaims] Look out! [He accidentally dumps the roses with a vase on King Dedede and whimpering. Dedede pull the vase off his head, Escargoon dreaming about to get clobbered by Dedede] Please don't clobber me.
[Chuckles] I sure won't.
Huh? You mean you're not gonna mash me with your mallet?
No, I forgive you.
Huh? You do? I wonder if I still dreaming. [thuds and Dedede walks away] He's acting like he traded personalities with a teddy bear. Must be a ruse to get my guard down. [Dedede returns with a mop] I knew it! [Dedede cleans up the mess on the floor with the mop] Huh? [Dedede still cleaning] You can't trick me by pretending that you're not angry. I know you're planning to mop the floor with me.
I ain't angry with you.
Please don't torture me this way!!
Let's let bygones be bygones!
It's hard to believe but, maybe he means it. [His eyes become bright with emotion, exclaims in happily] Sire!
Escargoon.
[He snatches the broom away from him and becomes serious again] There's no way I'm falling for that gag. You fooled me too many times. [He gives Dedede an elbow that makes him step back until he steps on the rose thorns; Dedede jumps in pain and then slips in the wet and falls to the ground as a vase falls on his head] Oh boy! I'm in for in now!
[a bump appears on his forehead] Why'd you push me?
[Whimpers, throwing himself to the ground to avoid the blows] I'm sorry!
[getting up again] That's okay.
[screams in shocked and Dedede laughs. He kneels before Dedede with a desperate look] That's it! I give up! Sire, please stop acting like you don't want to get even with me? [cries]
[placing a hand on Escargoon's head] I just want us to be friends.
[screams in horror] OH NO!!! THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!!! [cries again]
