Template:DKCbox From Zero to Hero is the seventh episode of the Donkey Kong Country television series, and it aired on the 27th of September, 1998. During the episode, Cranky Kong is giving physicals to all inhabitants of Kongo Bongo Island, but his machine is giving out. After overhearing a little of the conversation about the machine, Bluster Kong mistakenly believes Cranky is talking about his test results. As a result, Bluster tries to be caring, thoughtful, and helpful because he wants to be remembered as such.

Plot Synopsis

The episode begins with Donkey and Diddy Kong heading to Cranky's Cabin, discussing about movies on the way. When they arrive at the cabin, they notice Cranky giving X-rays of Funky Kong's face. The Kongs find Dixie Kong and Candy Kong at the cabin as well, and Dixie asks Diddy how the movie was. Diddy replies that it was "bogus," and then Donkey Kong complements Candy Kong, telling her that she "smells delicious." Soon, Diddy notices that the Kremlings are hanging around the cabin, and is confused on why they are there. Candy and Dixie explain that Cranky is giving X-rays to everyone on Kongo Bongo.

At the Kremling hideout, King K. Rool announces that today, he will take over the island with the Crystal Coconut (even though the Kritter troops have heard him say this several times before). He tells them that Krusha is in line for an X-ray at Cranky's Cabin, so he can steal the Crystal Coconut from the Kongs and allow the crocodile king to rule the whole island. Meanwhile, Cranky finishes taking a X-ray of Krusha (which seems to lack a brain, according to the old ape). As Cranky tries to take one more test, the X-ray machine malfunctions. While the ape is distracted, Krusha grabs the Crystal Coconut and runs out, and Cranky is unaware that the Coconut is missing when he finally notices he is gone.

Cranky calls the next islander up to take an X-ray. Candy is next up, but Bluster Kong decides to cut ahead, going before the others, who describe him as a "heartless, mean, inconsiderate, selfish windbag" as a result. When the ape is done with his X-rays, he exits, bragging about how well he thinks his tests are. Diddy simply replies by calling him a "god of fatheads," which makes the other Kongs laugh. Dixie and Candy soon leave to get other things done, and the Kongs suddenly hear Cranky say, "I don't believe it." Donkey and Diddy curiously come into the cabin to see what is going on, finding Cranky saying "I've got Bluster's X-rays here, and it doesn't look good." Bluster hears him say this and panics. Donkey Kong notes that it is "falling apart," so Cranky replies by saying "I'd give it a week." Bluster thinks they are talking about himself, becoming very worried.
