Customer Service blocks King Dedede's account at NME until he pays his debts. Dedede puts up a bunch of machines selling Waddle Dees, as a way to make fast money. Mayor Len is the first one to buy one, and it instantly nabs a broom and starts working. Later, it's seen driving his car for him.
They're very energetic and hard-working, and Len's car and house is soon sparkling. Soon, the entire town is filled with them. Tiff seems to dislike this, claiming that Dedede is selling the Waddle Dees into slavery.
When the king tries to take out the money from the machines, he sees that they are empty! Customer Service seems to know why, but nothing is proved.
When Dedede is refilling the machines, he gets an idea: He'll kidnap Kirby and put him in the machines! Said and done, he's later sold to Len.
When Dedede tries to inspect what his Waddle Dees are doing, he notices that they're all gone! Waddle Doo is also seen leaving the castle since he has no one to be leader for anymore. Shortly thereafter, Dedede is seen talking to Escargoon about something (he wants him to do the Waddle Dees' work). Escargoon answers by escaping.
Later, Tiff is seen looking for Kirby. It appears that she's figured out that Dedede repainted Kirby, but she can't find him.
Later, Dedede is seen sitting in his throne room, without his Waddle Dees. Even Meta Knight seems to have disappeared, but he's probably just hiding, like Sir Ebrum, Lady Like, and Escargoon.
Later, Dedede gets hungry and wants the Waddle Dees back, but no one in the village is willing to part with them. Dedede is then seen stealing food from a field. Dyna Chick is later seen walking towards Dedede, who thinks he's food. Dyna Blade isn't amused by this and attacks him. Waddle Doo is then seen commanding all Waddle Dees (and Kirby) to come help them, but Dyna Blade blows them away. Tiff then calls the Warp Star. Kirby nabs Dyna Chick and Dedede gets caught by Dyna Blade. A big bunch of Waddle Dees then clings onto Dedede in an attempt to get him down.
Dyna Blade chases Kirby towards the cave they live in. Dedede and the Waddle Dees get thrown down, but the Waddle Dees start holding each other's hands and stops Dedede from crashing into the ground.
The Waddle Dees are then sent back to Dedede's castle and the machines are modified to sell coffee instead.

Changes in the dub
The scene where one of the waddle dees works at Samo's bar and Samo drinks the beverage the waddle dee gives him was removed from the English dub to prevent alcohol references.
King Dedede's letter showing words "DDD" and part of the word and the initials for Holy nightmare were airbrushed out.
The word "comic" on the title of the book Iroo reads was airbrushed out.
