It was the eighth episode to air in North America. During the episode, [[Cranky Kong]] is giving physicals to all inhabitants of [[Kongo Bongo Island]], but his machine is giving out. After overhearing the conversation about the machine, [[Bluster Kong]] mistakenly believes Cranky is talking about his test results, leading him to believe he is going to die soon. As a result, Bluster tries to be caring, thoughtful, and helpful because he wants to be remembered as such. | ||

The episode begins with [[Donkey Kong|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|Funky Kong's]] face. The [[Kong]]s 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 [[Kremling]]s 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. | The episode begins with [[Donkey Kong|Donkey]] and [[Diddy Kong]] heading to [[Cranky's Cabin]], discussing about movies on the way.

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 (whose brain has "slipped a little", 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 exposed Crystal Coconut and runs out, and Cranky is unaware that the coconut is missing when he finally notices he is gone. | At the Kremling hideout, [[King K.

Cranky calls the next islander up to take an X-ray. Candy is next up, but Bluster Kong decides to cut ahead, believing he can do so because of his higher social status. Donkey, Diddy, Dixie, and Candy are outraged and describe Bluster 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 the "god of fatheads," which makes the other Kongs laugh. Dixie and Candy soon leave, Candy's lunch hour being up and Dixie going off to do something else, and the Kongs suddenly hear Cranky say, "I don't believe it", Bluster believing it is the results of his examination. 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. | Cranky calls the next islander up to take an X-ray.
