As [[Donkey Kong]] enters | As [[Donkey Kong]] enters Safari Land, a local zoo, [[Mario]] and [[Pauline]] enact their next plan to capture him: they disguise their circus van as a crudely-designed "elephant". They then rush into Safari Land, but Donkey Kong is able to recognize them, and asks a real elephant to distract them, which it does. As Donkey Kong is laughing at Mario, a fellow ape named [[Sonny (Saturday Supercade)|Sonny]] crashes right into him. Recognizing Donkey Kong, Sonny asks Donkey Kong to deliver the letter he is holding to his mother, [[Momma]], in Africa. Sonny then points out a nearby biplane that can be used before taking off again. | ||
Assessing the situation, Donkey Kong strips off one of the plane's wings, and uses the plane as a boat (while singing {{wp|Row, Row, Row Your Boat}}) to make the long journey to Africa, as a shocked Mario and Pauline watch and decide to follow. | Assessing the situation, Donkey Kong strips off one of the plane's wings, and uses the plane as a boat (while singing {{wp|Row, Row, Row Your Boat}}) to make the long journey to Africa, as a shocked Mario and Pauline watch and decide to follow. | ||

While advancing towards Momma, Donkey Kong decides to refuel with some bananas, being closely watched by Mario. Mario decides to use this as an opportunity to lasso Donkey Kong and take him back to the circus, but a nearby animal smuggler, [[Trapper Jack]], also sees Donkey Kong and decides to capture him in order to sell him off to an auction. Both characters simultaneously lasso Donkey Kong, and immediately clash. Pauline warns them that their bickering would lead to Donkey Kong getting away; right on cue, Donkey Kong springs his own trap, tying up Mario and Trapper Jack. The two reluctantly strike a wager to see who can capture Donkey Kong first. Meanwhile, Donkey Kong manages to escape despite Pauline's warnings, with her realizing he never listens. | While advancing towards Momma, Donkey Kong decides to refuel with some bananas, being closely watched by Mario.

However, before she can further express her feelings, Momma is immediately kidnapped by Trapper Jack, who takes her away to be auctioned. An angered Donkey Kong give chase, only to end up in Mario's trap. | ||
Just as Mario is about to celebrate his "victory", Donkey Kong tries to tell him and Pauline about Momma being kidnapped, handing Pauline the note for her to read. Pauline orders a reluctant Mario to release Donkey Kong for the moment, and he takes them to the place where the auction is being held. Realizing they need a strategy, Mario begins thinking, but Pauline tells him that this time she came up with a plan. | Just as Mario is about to celebrate his "victory", Donkey Kong tries to tell him and Pauline about Momma being kidnapped, handing Pauline the note for her to read.

As the auctioneer tries to describe the two "gorillas" that Trapper Jack caught and the bids are made, Mario tries to remove the costume to foil Trapper Jack, but he cannot remove the head. Higher bids are made, and Pauline instructs Donkey Kong to create a diversion, which he does by juggling melons. He then throws them at the top bidders, the auctioneer, Trapper Jack, and Mario, who now easily removes his costume (though he took it as a sick joke). | As the auctioneer tries to describe the two "gorillas" that Trapper Jack caught and the bids are made, Mario tries to remove the costume to foil Trapper Jack, but he cannot remove the head.

As Trapper Jack surfaces and claims he's not finished yet, an hostile crocodile suddenly appears and chases him away, and a gloating Mario exclaims that he won't be smuggling animals for quite a while, cracking up Donkey Kong. | ||

Pauline remarks their cuteness, yet Mario admits that it's "not as sweet as catching that furball".
