"You know, I'm starting to get a little hungry…" Mario mumbled, "Why don't we stop for lunch?"

"Like you should be whining…" Wario retorted, "I've been starvin' since we got off the Great Movie Ride!"

"Wasn't that the first ride we went on?" Luigi reminded.

"Yeah, and what's your point?"

"It's just that… Oh, never mind…" Luigi trailed off, figuring that arguing with Wario was as pointless as ever.

"Well, stopping for lunch sounds like a good idea," Peach replied to Mario's initial comment, "Where should we eat? The Hollywood Brown Derby? Hollywood & Vine?..."

"I know!" Daisy interrupted, "Let's eat at the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater! That restaurant is themed like an old drive-in theater, complete with cheesy monster movies being played!"

"You had me at 'cheesy monster movies'…" Wario responded, "Let's go already!"


"Gasp! Look out for the oversized blob, you yuppie teenagers! Oh no, it's too late! It got beach jock extra #5!"

Waluigi, needless to say, was crying in ridiculously sarcastic tones at the movie trailers being played in the restaurant. However, he wasn't the only one shouting at the screen. In fact, the waiters themselves were yelling things at the movies when appropriate! The rest of the gang also had a few things to say about the movies, but they were a little less… loud about it. Take Attack of the Fifty Foot Woman, for example…

"Heh, heh…" Mario snickered to himself, "So that's what would happen if Peach ate a Mega Shroom…"

And then there was Frankenstein vs. the Thing from Outer Space

"Bah, the title alone sounds stupid," Wario grunted, "Crossovers stink! Who watches those things anyway? I wouldn't be caught dead in a crossover!"

"I dunno…" Luigi mumbled, rolling his eyes towards the Fourth Wall, "I'm not so sure you should be talking…"

By the time they were finished eating, a cartoon was on the screen depicting a woman getting kidnapped by aliens… and then promptly kicking all their butts by herself.

"Hmm…" Daisy pondered, "That would have really come in handy when Tatanga invaded…"

After the meal, everyone was ready to head out into the park again… Well, almost everyone.

"A-Wha?... You guys want to go back out already? But I just finished eating!" Wario protested.

"So?" Peach questioned.

"I can't exercise right after I eat! I have to wait a little while!"

"Fine… How many minutes?"

"Minutes? I was thinking in terms of hours… WAH!"

Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Daisy all grabbed Wario and dragged him out the door.


"Hey, guys, hold on for a sec. I gotta check something…"

As the group was entering their next attraction, MuppetVision 3D, Daisy held everyone up for a moment and pointed at a side door. On the glass window was printed the words "Security Office."

"Woopie-doo…" Wario sarcastically cheered, "I should still be recovering from that meal…"

"See this sign hanging on the door?" Daisy asked, ignoring Wario's remark, "It says, 'Back in 5 minutes. Key is under mat.' And if you actually look under the mat…"

Daisy kneeled down and lifted the mat at the foot of the door and, sure enough, there was a key embedded in the floor!

"Pretty cool…" Luigi commented, "Disney's always a stinker for details, huh?"

After that humorous diversion, the gang filed into the pre-show area and watched as the Muppets got ready for the show in the next room. However, Waluigi wasn't paying any attention to the pre-show, as he had more important things on his mind.

"What the heck are these things?" Waluigi asked, looking at the pair of tinted glasses he received when he entered the building, "What kind of idiots do they think we are, giving us sunglasses when we go indoors?"

"Those are the 3-D glasses," Peach explained, "You put them on when you enter the theater to see the 3-D effects."

"Oh, really now?" Waluigi questioned as he put the glasses on. He took about three steps… and immediately tripped and fell flat on his face.

"Uh… You're supposed to wait until you're seated until you put them on…" Mario corrected.

"NOW you tell me this!" Waluigi shouted back, still lying on the floor.

Eventually, everyone was allowed into the main theater. The rules were that everyone had to move as far left as possible in each row, as to allow as many people to fill in behind them. Wario, unfortunately, didn't get the memo… or, more likely, just choosed to ignore it.

"Um, Wario?" Luigi muttered, "Why are you sitting down? There's still five empty seats to your left."

"Yeah, so?" Wario replied, "This is the middle seat! It's mine! All mine! No one else can have it!"

"Seriously… Sometimes you're worse than a little kid!"

"Hey, bub, growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional."

No matter how much they tried, Wario wouldn't give up his seat. Evidentially, the rest of the group had to climb over Wario to reach the five seats beyond him, and it wasn't very comfortable.

"Alright…" Daisy sighed as she finally reached her seat, "Next show we go to, Wario enters the row last."

"Agreed," Peach responded, "Though, maybe we should just leave Wario behind next time…"

Despite the small seat issue, the show was an enjoyable experience, complete with Fozzie's pie in the sky, Miss Piggy's "romantic" musical number, and a finale that brought the house down… literally. Of course, a majority of this was made possible with the 3-D effects.

"Well, that was better than I expected," Waluigi grunted as they left, "oh well, whatever. Let's go to the next ride!"

Waluigi then began to run off back into the park, but Mario suddenly noticed something.

"Waluigi, wait! You forgot to return your 3-D glass…"

Too late. Just like before, Waluigi suddenly tripped and sprawled himself across the floor.

"Sigh…" Mario moaned, shaking his head, "You'd think he'd learn…"

"Heh, he ain't physically capable of learning!" Wario retorted, "I mean, come on! How small do ya think his brain has to be to fit inside that toothpick noggin of his?"

Apparently, Waluigi heard that comment, because the next thing Wario knew, he was stuffed head-first into one of the 3-D glasses return bins.
