Information[]

Summary[]

Numbuh 3 and Mushi visit the Rainbow Monkeys theme park, but King Sandy returns again set on marrying Numbuh 3.

Plot[]

The episode begins with the use of an explosive KND R.O.L.L.A.S.K.A.T.E. blasting ketchup all over the front gates of an apparently Rainbow-Monkey themed castle, quickly followed by Sector V (minus Kuki) rushing through the doors. Kuki and Mushi are cowering in a boat, although it is not clear from what. Wallabee lands behind them, followed by the rest of the team. Nigel asked Kuki what her emergency was, and Kuki informed him that the ride was about to start. Nigel tells her exasperatedly that the KND super alert is for emergencies only, not an excuse to go on a carnival ride. The team leaves after a fight with her, while Kuki and Mushi stay for the ride.

The ride starts, and a Romeo and Juliet reenactment begins, played by Love and Kisses Rainbow Monkey Romeo, and Pretty Princess Rainbow Monkey Juliet. Unfortunately, for the star-crossed lovers, Romeo's father is the Count Do-Not-Very-Nice, who hates all Pretty Princess Rainbow Monkeys. Fortunately, he is not Romeo's father, and the two get married. Mushi and Kuki speculate on how beautiful it is (as they put it, more than rainbows and love, like a dream dipped in sparkles come true), when the Knights of the Round Towel from Operation: B.E.A.C.H. attack. They say that King Sandy has been searching for the fair princess far and wide, to marry her. Numbuh 3 contacted Numbuh 1, 2, 4, and 5 about King Sandy and the Knights but they didn’t buy it and thought Kuki was playing a trick to still make them come on the ride with her and Mushi. Kuki, after being turned away by Nigel over the KND super alert once again, throws Mushi, who is ecstatic about her sister's marriage, out of the boat, sending her to fetch the others to help her.

Kuki is captured by the knights, and we next see her waking up unconscious chained up in a dungeon, surrounded by Rainbow Monkeys being tortured. It was a Rainbow Monkey Torture Chamber. She starts to cry, and in comes King Sandy. He says that he is determined not to let his "perfect wedding" be interrupted this time, to which Kuki blushes, smiles, and says that it's "so sweet", but immediately followed by enraged rejection. King Sandy then threatens her with dropping a whole bunch of Rainbow Monkeys in boiling hot nacho cheese, making poor Kuki surrender. King Sandy orders his knights to prepare the princess for the wedding. They oblige, and we cut to the next scene.

Mushi hangs on the leg of Wallabee, begging them to come to Kuki. They refuse, and Mushi says, "Well, FINE! If you won't come see Kuki get married to King Sandy, then I'll just go ALL by myself!" (causing the team to realize that she wasn't talking about some silly Rainbow Monkey wedding); they are now motivated to help when Wallabee says, "Whatever," only to stop walking, turn and say, "King Sandy?" along with Nigel, Abby and Hoagie in shock.

We see the lifeguard from Operation: B.E.A.C.H. officiating the wedding once again, only to be interrupted by Mushi sobbing on a boat below and called out that Numbuh 3 could not marry. She realizes that King Sandy isn't pretending, and brings back the line, "What do you mean you're not pretending?! You can't really marry her! She's like, TEN years old!!!" After the king shouts, "THAT'S IT! THAT'S IT! Throw her in the dungeon FOREVER!!!", Mushi escapes the knights that Sandy sends after her, letting Kuki jump into the speeding boat. King Sandy somehow catches up to them, and falls in love with Mushi instead, and described her as “the most beautiful princess in the kingdom,” and then Numbuh 3 got offended when Mushi said that she was cuter that she was and King Sandy started calling Kuki "Granny". She gets immensely even more offended, and the new couple are lost in each other's eyes and don't notice the wild ride that the boat is now taking out of the castle but Numbuh 3 did.

The boat skids to a stop outside the gates, leaving a fuming Kuki and two kids in love in the boat. Nigel and the team arrive, and Nigel orders Sandy to "step away from the girl", but no help is needed as Sandy's mom calls him to lunch. He asks if he can bring his new, pretty girlfriend, offending Kuki even further. Poor Numbuh 3 felt saddened and broken-hearted and hoped to one day get revenge on King Sandy. Hoagie says that King Sandy has a weird taste in girls, sending Kuki over the edge. She snatches up a S.P.L.A.N.K.E.R. and hits Hoagie with it. The End Transmission screen comes on, and Hoagie is heard getting hit a second time by Wally. He asks, "What'd you hit me for?". to which Wallabee angrily responds, "Nothin’".

Trivia[]

  • There is a computer game online called Rainbow Monkey Rundown, where you play a Numbuh 3 steering a motorboat on a river to escape the Rainbow Monkey theme park while using yo-yos to defeat King Sandy and his knights. It is based on this episode.
  • When Sector V realizes King Sandy's at the park, suddenly motivated to help Kuki, Nigel reacts the same way his friends do, even though he never met King Sandy the first time. It could be that his friends told him about King Sandy beforehand.
  • The Rainbow Monkey parody versions of Romeo & Juliet has a happy, public wedding, while the original Shakespeare version was private.
  • The reason Wally hit Hoagie with a S.P.L.A.N.K.E.R. is either because he insulted Kuki, or even insulted Wally himself. Hoagie said that King Sandy had weird taste in girls for liking Mushi and Kuki, and since Wally likes Kuki as well, he is also saying that Wally has a weird taste in girls.
  • This is the only time the R.O.L.L.A.S.K.A.T.E. is used in the series.
  • Rainbow Monkey Happy Sugar Land is the first of several Rainbow Monkey-themed amusement parks to appear in the series.
  • This is the first time the Rainbow Monkey Song has alternate lyrics, to go with the wedding.

Continuity[]

  • King Sandy and his cousins return to kidnap Kuki, which they last did in Operation: B.E.A.C.H.. They also used the same teenager to officiate the weddings in both episodes and Kuki wears the same wedding dress for both weddings.
  • The D.E.C.O.D.E.R.A.N.T. was last used by Numbuh 4 in Operation: F.U.T.U.R.E..
  • Kuki gave in to Sandy's demands to save a bunch of Rainbow Monkeys, similar to how she and the other girls gave in to Chad's demands when he threatened to harm a Rainbow Monkey in Operation: S.L.U.M.B.E.R..
  • Nacho cheese was also used as a weapon in Operation: L.I.C.E..
  • The "Sugar Coated Kastle of Love" is King Sandy's second castle hideout. His first hideout was a Sand Castle.

Pop Culture References[]

Goofs[]

  • The color around the castle entrance change after the bomb goes off. Where there were layers of yellow, orange and pink, there is afterwards only a layer of pink around the entrance.
  • There was not a boat behind Kuki and Mushi before they started moving. Then another boat appears out of nowhere.
  • Kuki and Mushi somehow turned their torsos almost completely around while watching the ride.
  • "Rainbow Monkey Romeo" states that "Count Do Not Be Very Nice" is his third uncle's third cousin thrice removed. This would make "Count Do Not Very Nice" two generations younger than "Rainbow Monkey Romeo".
  • Numbuh 3 was somehow unable to see the two knights, despite them standing right in front of her off-screen.
  • In the credits, Dee Bradley Baker was credited as voicing Wally twice.
  • Numbuh 3 calls Numbuh 1 on her Hippy-Hop Wrist Watch, but she is holding both of her hands on the boat when she appears on Numbuh 1's screen.
  • Just before Numbuh 1 ends their transmission, Numbuh 3 is holding Mushi's head instead of the boat's motor.
  • The green Rainbow Monkey lost its head while handing upside down, but the head disappears after Sandy enters.
  • The big red Rainbow Monkey building with open feet behind Mushi does not have any tracks leading into it, but a train can be seenin the next shot driving into one of its feet holes.
  • The knights are not wearing bowties in the opening of the wedding scene and Kuki is not holding her bouquet of flowers.
  • Mushi is not wearing her backpack when she enters to stop the wedding.
  • Mushi is sitting in the middle of the boat with her arms out when she drives under Kuki and Sandy, but is sitting on the left side when she emerges on the other side of the short tunnel.
  • Sandy's jump was so much later than Kuki's that he would not be able to reach the boat.
  • King Sandy did not have his sword on him until he appeared in the boat.
  • The ground outside of the hedge around the castle is shown to be green as Kuki's boat is breaking through the hedge, but the ground is entirely brown in the following shots.
