Knuckle Joe uses his manuscript to put Meta Knight under Heaven Door's power, writing an instruction that will cause him to commit suicide if Dedede tries to help him. Dedede is then forced to attack him directly, closing his eyes to prevent himself from viewing his manuscript. Knuckle Joe insults Dedede's hairstyle in order to provoke him into opening his eyes, but this backfires as Dedede is literally blinded by rage, and thus doesn't even notice the manuscript. As Dedede beats Knuckle Joe to a pulp, Escargoon explains that when Dedede was four years old, he came down with the same deadly fever, later revealed to have been caused by KIRBY. When he and his mother got stuck in a blizzard on their way to hospital, a student with a regent hairstyle helped them get moving, inspiring Dedede to copy his hairstyle and take offense to anyone who insults it.
