Episode 21 1/2: Tour De Crossover Part 1
(Scenes from the previous episode are played as there's another recap.)
Discord VO: Last time on The Amazing Crossover Race! The teams got busy as they head to Delfino Square via Isle Delfino to load up crates on a ship and build sand castles in the sand. However, the Bowsers thought they would have won for sure, but they got penalized and first place was claimed by the Mario Bros. They got to live the suite life in one of the best suites at the Hotel. In the end, it seemed like it was all over for the Ex-Sisters, but it was actually the genius Schoolgirls who were outsmarted in the previous leg and got eliminated.
(We see Discord and the pictures of the remaining 8 teams.)
Discord: Only 8 more teams remain and this episode is going to be an epic one because today, we're going on a racing tour. Welcome to part 1 of the special episode right here on... The Amazing Crossover Race!
(The intro begins again after another snap.)

Episode 21: Tour De Crossover Part 1/2
Discord: We're back in Isle Delfino and today, I'm going to tell you about our special challenge in store for the teams. (He then brought out a bunch of photographs with the teams that have been eliminated so far in order.) The following teams: Goombas, Snips and Snails, Egg Buddies, The Besties, Mushroom Pals, Snobby Duo, Princesses, Scientists, Young Princesses, Musicians, Koopas, Party Ponies, Sneaky Twins, Gamers, Gem Collectors, and Schoolgirls have all been kicked off so far. Only 8 teams are left and I'll explain the rest of the details when I get everyone on the plane. Today, there is NO cloudbox to tell us where we'll be heading today. All the teams are just going to board the plane and take us to our next destination.
(Skip ahead as the teams are getting on the plane and take their seats.)
Discord: You're probably wondering why there's no cloudbox, and why I'm here.
Twilight: I assume that you have something to tell us that involves today's leg.
Discord: Indeed, for today, there's no multiple challenges that involve do it yourselves, one or the other, it's only going to be one big challenge that involves both survival and teamwork.
Rainbow Dash: So is this like a big tournament of something awesome?
Discord: Sorta like that, you guys will be participating in a race in 16 different places.
Spitfire: Sweet! I always love a good challenge.
Discord: Which is why today's 'only' challenge will be... A super awesome kart race in an all cup world tour.
Applejack: What do you mean by cups exactly?
Mario: Oh now I get it, we're going to race in 16 different tracks, try to get the highest score possible in order to stay in the race. Unfortunately, we get the feeling whoever has the lowest score in the end will be the next team kicked off.
Discord: And you just ruined my surprise.
(The plane lands and everyone hops off and they are now seen on a racetrack.)
Discord: Welcome to Luigi Circuit! AKA the very first race you all be doing.
Luigi: I thought this place looked familiar.
Discord: Here's the rules: I gave each of you teams the same karts which is enough to fit you and your partner. Second, there are these multicolored boxes with question marks on them; which are called item boxes. Those are scattered around the track and either gives you an advantage or a chance to hinder a team.
Bowser Jr: Looking forward to it.
Fluttershy: Third, stay in your kart at all times. Points will be given to the position you come in. First place gets 10, 2nd gets 8, 3rd gets 6, 4th place will give you 4 points, and so on.
Discord:Next, the races will be selected at random with the exception of this stage which is automatically first, and Rainbow Road which is automatically the last stage. All the other 14 stages will be picked randomly.
Mario: Oh I get it, saving the best stage for last are you?
Discord: Last but not least, most of the races are done in three laps, two of them are only have two laps done, and there's one with seven laps.
All the teams: SEVEN!?
Fluttershy: Yes, and before we begin, meet the peanut gallery. (Pan to the bleachers with all the teams that have been eliminated so far.)
Applejack: Wait a second, isn't that...
Discord: All the teams that didn't make it this far will be cheering you all on. (The teams on the bleachers begin cheering for their favorite team.
(Interview: Koopas)
Koopa: This is insane dude! The biggest racing world tour in history, and we get to see it live.
Paratroopa: Wait, this the biggest race in history? We're in the biggest race in history?! (Grabs Koopa and hugs him tightly.)
Koopa(struggling to get out): No... we... aren't.
(Interview: Egg Buddies)
Yoshi: You know, I'm kinda jealous we're not in this big race.
Birdo: Well what can you do? There were challenges that did involve a lot of water.
Yoshi: On second thought, I don't mind watching.
(Interview: Princesses)
Peach: We hope Mario and Luigi win this race. After all, they won the last leg.
Daisy: We'll cheer for them all the way!
Peach: Good luck Mario!
Daisy: Go for it Luigi!
(Interview: Snobby Duo)
Silver Spoon: Are you sad we're not in this race?
Diamond Tiara: Of course not. I'm glad we got out before we did anything gross or dangerous. Like walking on hot coals, catch gross fish, or swim with sharks. Not my thing really.
Silver Spoon: Same here.
(Interview: Gamers)
Sweetie Belle: It's been awhile since we were out of the race, but I still get to see my friends and racing in this big event too.
Button: We're gonna cheer for them all the way!
(Both cheer.)
Sweetie Belle: Ow! Forgot one of my forehooves is still in a cast.
Right on cue, a familiar face comes down on his cloud holding a stoplight.
Mario: Is that...
Lakitu: Yep! I'm here for today as the starter and the finisher. Oh, and also the rescuer. If any of you guys fall off the track, I'll fish you guys back on the track.
Discord: Alright everyone, get to your karts and start your engines.
Pinkie Pie: This will be so much fun seeing al my friends racing! I'm so excited!
Wario: Well I'm not cheering for any of those loser teams.
Waluigi: Me neither! We hate all of them.
Discord: Oh I suggest you do cheer for one, or I'll be forced to unleash... 'THIS'!
(A wild Chain Chomp charges at the crowd scaring some of the teams. However, it's held back on a chain.)
Daisy: So not cool!
Discord: Any questions?
Wari(rolling his eyes): Go Bowsers (flatly).
(This gave them a proud smirk.)
Discord: Alright! Is everybody ready?
Everyone: Yes!
First stage: GCN Luigi Circuit.
To be continued...
I'm gonna start the actual race in part two. If you want to keep track of points, here's how it goes:
1st. 10pts.
2nd. 8pts.
3rd. 6pts.
4th. 4pts.
5th. 3pts
6th. 2pts.
7th. 1pt.

The Mario Kart game type is Double Dash on GCN because it's the only one that has teams.
