"You know, none of us bosses haven't gotten business in quite a long while." Cheepskipper commented as he munched down his buttery popcorn. "I haven't seen a single friggin' customer here once."
Petey Piranha mumbled as he moved his big green leaves around, with Chuffy the train blowing its horn as it traveled on the elevated railroad tracks behind Petey Piranha's Popcorn Parlor, entering the orange checkerboard mountain.
"Yeah, no kidding." Lakithunder commented as he munched on his popcorn, sipping on some Diet Pepsi afterwards, turning to Pepsi Man. "Hey, splash me with your shocking Pepsi."
Pepsi Man aimed both of his palms at Lakithunder as he fired the carbonated soda at Lakithunder, who let out a refreshed sigh of relief as Petey Piranha, Cheepskipper, and Mummipokey all rolled their eyes.
"Lakithunder loves Pepsi a bit too much," Mummipokey stated as he bobbed from sideways. "Anyway, there has to be someway to get more customers to come to our shops. But how?"
Petey murmured as he rubbed his chin with his right leaf, looking up to see King Bowser Koopa and Dr. Eggman walking on the sandy shore of Seaside Hill, talking with each other.
"...And with my resources of mechs, we can make one glorious theme park!" Eggman exclaimed as he held his hands together, chuckling as he grinned widely. "Of course, we'll have a secret base located within it off limits to all the guests for our evil deeds..."
"Gwa ha ha!" Bowser laughed as he wrapped his burly right arm around Dr. Eggman. "I like the way you think, Ivo! I'll bring in my Bowser Express train from my amusement park Bowser World, and we'll really be churning in the big bucks!"
As the four NSMB bosses watched Bowser and Eggman head westward, they faced each other as they blinked. Suddenly a much smaller Koopaling that looked like a jester called out to them, catching their attention.
"Hey!" The Koopaling like jester, Motley Bossblob, called out as he rolled his staff in his right hand. "Is there any space in this overused beach for me to open up shop?"
Petey mumbled as he rolled his leaf around, with Motley Bossblob gasping as he took a step back.
"Bring it up with some blob of ice named the Chief Chilly of the Bully Business Bureau? All right!" Motley Bossblob stated as he rubbed his hands together. "But first... how about some popcorn?"
