'''Born to Be Mild - Part II''' is the 91st episode of the ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'' series, and continues the story from the previous episode: [[Born to Be Mild - Part I]]. In this episode, the race in the DDD Speedway commences between the villainous [[Fang]] and his opponents. As Fang proceeds to pick off the other racers one-by-one, [[Tiff]] and her friends manage to locate [[Gus]] who was trapped in the [[Castle Dedede]] dungeon and free him, and [[Melman]] persuades Gus to get in the race and go after Fang. He does so, but soon finds himself in trouble when Fang ties him down. At that moment, the legendary biker Steppenwolf rides in and frees Gus, then causes Fang to crash before disappearing again. Fang retaliates by transforming into the [[monster]] [[Wheelie]] and going after [[Kirby (anime character)|Kirby]], who gains the [[Wheel]] [[Copy Ability]] to fight back. [[King Dedede (anime character)|King Dedede]] tries to set several traps on the racetrack to trip Kirby up, but this only ends up harming Wheelie instead, who spins out and causes the raceway to collapse while Kirby and Gus take the win. Later, it is revealed that Steppenwolf was Melman the whole time, and he urges Tiff and her friends to keep his alter ego a secret to Gus. | '''Born to Be Mild - Part II''' is the 91st episode of the ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'' series, and continues the story from the previous episode: [[Born to Be Mild - Part I]].
