Solmes and Kenworth are characters in the Saturday Supercade episode "How Much is That Gorilla in the Window?." They are the two escorts of Brian and his implied parents, and together they attempt to steal the family's jewels to take over the mansion. They are notable for being two of the very few antagonists in the Donkey Kong segments of Saturday Supercade where their post-episode fate is seen, instead of simply hinted at like in most other episodes.

They first appear at the beginning of the episode, where they escort Brian to Pet City, a local pet store, while they discuss their plans. They are shocked to see Donkey Kong follow Brian out of the store and into the limousine.

During Brian's birthday party, Donkey Kong accidentally drenches Kenworth in icing. Solmes sends him away to wash himself off, then gives Brian a bike for him and Donkey Kong to ride on. Kenworth attempts to open the safe, but Brian and Donkey Kong crash into him. Though Kenworth is able to lie his way out of the situation, Solmes then realizes that Donkey Kong poses a threat to their goals.

Kenworth attempts to call a local zoo, telling them that Donkey Kong is an "escaped animal", but Brian is able to spy on him. Once knowing what Kenworth is up to, he fires him and orders Donkey Kong to literally kick him out, prompting Solmes to tell Kenworth to get back inside at all costs.

When Mario and Pauline arrive at the scene, Kenworth claims that Donkey Kong is dangerous and asks them to capture him. After Mario's "Acme Laundry" plan fails, Brian and Donkey Kong decide to head to a golf course. Solmes and Kenworth use this as an opportunity to booby-trap one of the water pits with fresh concrete. Though Mario accidentally fall into the concrete while he is trying to capture Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong also becomes a victim of the trap when he attempts to rescue Mario. Wasting no time, Solmes and Kenworth steal the safe to the jewels from Donkey Kong's hand.

Fleeing to a nearby closet, Solmes and Kenworth put on some ape costumes to attempt to escape. However, Brian is not fooled their disguises, and he and Donkey Kong throw bowling balls at them. They are ejected out the main entrance and straight into the same animal control officer Kenworth had called earlier. The officer, apparently fooled by their disguises, sent them "back" to the local zoo without a second thought.
