"That Was No Idol, That
Was My Ape"
During a quiet drive in the rain, Grape Ape and Beegle
decide to take a vacation -- and a billboard they
encounter boasts the place they plan to go: Hawaii! When
Grape Ape's weight proves to be too much for a jet, Grape
and Beegle decide to go the whole mile on foot. Once at
Hawaii, they encounter a group of natives worshipping a
40-foot purple idol named Mo-Mo; the two decide to get the
natives on their side by replacing Mo-Mo with Grape Ape,
and are successful. "It is as the prophecy says!" exclaims
the native chief. "When Moo-Moo becomes angry, Mo-Mo will
appear!" Unbeknownst to Grape and Beegle, the chief is
referring to a volcano!
"The
All-American Ape"
Ho-boy. 340-lb. Beefy McGurk has blown yet another
simple victory for The Pigeons football team, and the
coach, who's in danger of losing his job to Shifty Schulz,
coach of The Boston Buzzards, if he's not successful in
defeating them, sends his aide Crazy Toes into action to
find McGurk's replacement. Beegle Beagle and Grape Ape
shows up, and C.T. feels he's found his man -- er, ape!
The coach plans to hold secret practice sessions, so they
can spring it on The Buzzards in the initial game--unaware
that Shifty is already in the stadium witnessing the whole
thing. Eager to steal the next game and get the job for
Pigeons' coach, Shifty manages to kidnap Grape Ape, and
keep him in hiding until after the game!
