!!Tropes

* BadBoss: K. Rool has Klump knock out passing Kritters to steal their Coconut Chills. Naturally, the Kritters are soon close to munity before K. Rool is able to salvage the situation.

* DarkReprise: The cheery, jazzy and upbeat “Road to Success” is followed up by a more somber blues-styled reprise, with Diddy lamenting the hard work he and DK have to do once Bluster takes over the Coconut Chill operation.

* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: At the end, Cranky assures Donkey Kong that while the big ape has no sense for business, he still has his role as guardian of the Crystal Coconut and future ruler of Kongo Bongo.

* ComicallySmallBribe: DK and Diddy sell the Coconut Chill business to Bluster for a measly two bananas. Bluster thinks he's duped them out of a fortune, but they're just happy to not have to work for him anymore.

** At the end of the episode, a sudden cold snap replaces the heat wave. Combine this with drinking a whole shipment of Coconut Chills as fast as possible, and K. Rool and the other lizards are paralyzed on the floor- y'know, like cold-blooded animals.

* JerkassHasAPoint: Subverted. Bluster comments that he’s a success right now and has more to offer Candy, unlike DK who’s still loafing around waiting for the Crystal Coconut’s prophecy to come true. Diddy is quick to point out the hypocrisy - Bluster had all of his wealth and business handed down to him by his mother. But DK ''thinks'' that Bluster might be right, which is what motivates him to try to get into business.
** Cranky, despite being as brusque as always, correctly points out that DK has no business sense and him trying would end horribly for him. Sure enough, Bluster uses his ruthless business sense to take over the Coconut Chill operation, taking all the profit for himself.
* KnowWhenToFoldEm: Realizing that they're "looking for the easy life the hard way", Donkey and Diddy Kong sell their shares of the Coconut Chill business to Bluster.

* StartMyOwn: Donkey at first tries to go into a barrel-making business. To call his first attempt at a barrel shoddy would be a bit generous.

* DistressedDude: Cranky in the third act winds up in a barrel of Coconut Chills in the shipment that gets stolen by K. Rool.
* EpicFail: Klump is tasked with recreating the Coconut Chill, which is just a coconut topped with snow. Judging from how he reacted to a "Cool K. Rool", he was ''not'' successful.

** Cranky, while generally insensitive to DK's worries, correctly points out that DK has no business sense and would fare horribly. Sure enough, Bluster uses his ruthless business sense to take over the Coconut Chill operation, taking all the profit for himself.
* KnowWhenToFoldEm: Realizing that they're "looking for the easy life the hard way", Donkey and Diddy Kong sell their shares of the Coconut Chill business to Bluster for two bananas. Bluster thinks he's made the deal of the century, but then a massive cold snap blows in, meaning that no one will be buying Coconut Chills anymore.

* FlashInThePanFad: The Coconut Chill ends up being this. It makes DK and Diddy (and then Bluster) a ton of bananas during the heat wave, but then a cold snap hits the island, meaning nobody will be buying them anymore.
