The Villager is a character who appears in a village within Embamba Plains. When the player meets him, he tells him that a baboon took his mask when his house is on fire. When the special event starts, the player must go after the correct baboon (which is the one leaping on one of the huts) in order to retrieve the mask, consisting of three different colored baboons: red, yellow, and blue. If the player isn't fast enough, the baboons will escape, giving the player no consolation time bonus. If the player hits the rope on the wrong baboon (in which the mask is not the one that the villager lost), the villager will become enraged at the player for giving him the wrong mask.
Depending on each gameplay, each mask that the villager lost is random and changes whenever a new player starts Expert Mode for the first time.
