'''Watermelon Felon''' is the 37th (35th in the 4Kids broadcast) episode of the ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'' series. In this episode, [[Kirby (anime)|Kirby]] is filmed by [[King Dedede (anime)|King Dedede]] and [[Escargoon]] and a number of Kirby's exploits in town are edited to make him look like a criminal. This footage is then shown on [[Channel DDD]] and followed up with a mock-trial in order to ruin Kirby's reputation with the townsfolk. [[Tiff]] tries her best to defend Kirby at the trial, but is overpowered by Dedede's tricks. As Tiff is about to give up, [[Meta Knight/anime|Meta Knight]] suggests she try a different strategy, and she and the kids distribute newspapers to successfully exonerate Kirby. Dedede counters by printing his own newspaper, but he goes overboard, filling the editions with advertisements. Cappy Town soon becomes fed up with Dedede's propaganda, and retaliate by using Kirby to return all of his newspapers to the castle at once, flooding King Dedede out.

Tiff returns to the trial to find that the crowd is still turning against Kirby, reminiscing on the trouble that has happened since he first arrived in Cappy Town. Tiff makes one more stand to remind everyone of the many times Kirby saved them from monsters, and who brought those monsters in to begin with. To counter, King Dedede and Escargoon have a large wagon of food brought in and placed next to Kirby in order to prove his gluttonous nature as the town jokes about Kirby's appetite. Kirby naturally cannot help himself and proceeds to gobble the whole thing up. He is then shown a massive pile of fruits and vegetables which he inhales, causing the set to become a wreck. Tiff - utterly defeated - resigns and bemoans Kirby's fate. As she sits in the castle grounds, [[Meta Knight/anime|Meta Knight]] appears to reassure her. As Tiff explains the situation, her fear gets the better of her and she begins to sulk, and Meta Knight leaves her with a small clue, which gives her an idea. That night, Tiff, Tuff, and the Cappy kids distribute newspapers around town which argue Kirby's case. In the morning, the townsfolk read these papers and - without Dedede's influence hanging over them - realize Kirby's innocence.

Meanwhile, Channel DDD makes the claim that Kirby just ate Mayor Len's sheep, splicing scenes from previous episodes including one of [[Octacon]] eating the sheep in [[Kirby Comes to Cappy Town]]. Escargoon attempts to interview Mayor Len, but he confirms the story is fake and shows him the newspaper. When King Dedede finds out, he counters by issuing his own papers, but he goes way overboard by delivering several in one day, and the Cappy Town residents notice that the bulk of the phone book-sized editions is advertisements and soon grow tired of Dedede's propaganda attempts. That night, King Dedede is suddenly awoken when all of Cappy Town's notable residents storm into his bedroom and demand that King Dedede stop delivering his papers to them. They leave Kirby to punish King Dedede by spitting out all the editorials back at him, flooding him in a torrent of paper that spills out of the castle like a waterfall, taking Dedede and Escargoon with it. Later on, Dedede and Escargoon dispose of the mess by tossing the papers into the [[Night Mare Enterprises Teleporter]] as the [[N.M.E. Sales Guy]] complains and then gets overwhelmed. The episode ends as Kirby and the Cappies watch with relish from a hill overlooking the castle.
