Mario swam and Toado's basket floated for a while, but then they came to a fork in the "road". On the land in between the two ways to go was a scare crow who looked exactly like Donkey Kong wearing Link's outfit with straw coming out of it.
"Which way do we go?" Mario asked.
"Turn left now." the scarecrow said.
"Did that Donkey Kong scarecrow just talk?" asked Mario.
"Recalculating. Turn right now." the scarecrow said."Ok, now I'm really confused." Mario said.
"Recalculating. Turn both ways now." said the scarecrow.
Mario looked at each other with confused faces.
"Should we get out of the water and see what the deal with the scarecrow is?"
Toado then nodded yes. Mario then got out of the water while carrying Toado in his basket. He then examined the scarecrow.
"Stop staring at me!
Mario and Toado then screamed. Toado than began crying. Mario reached into Toado's basket to try to find a bottle of milk. He found one and gave it to him.
"So why did you scream at me like that?" asked Mario.
"You are a crow, and that is how I scare them.
"What the heck are you talking about?" Mario asked. "I'm not a crow, I'm a human." he corrected.
"You are." the scarecrow said with an upset tone.
"Yes." answered Mario.
"Oh!" whined the scarecrow. "Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!" he said as he hit himself on the head.
"What's the matter?" asked Mario.
"Well, my name is 'Donkey Kong'..." the scarecrow began to say.
"What? So someone here is actually someone I know and not just an exact lookalike!" Mario cheered before he realized something. "Oh wait, you can't be the Donkey Kong I know, because he doesn't talk." he said in disappointment.
"So anyways, do you know what 'Donkey Kong' means?" asked Donkey Kong.
Mario than thought about it for a moment.
"I have an idea, but as a character in something that's supposed to be K rated, I can't say it." answered Mario.
"Well it means 'Stupid Monkey'." Donkey Kong said. "I was given that name because I have no brain." he said.
"I'm sorry, it sounded like you said you have no brain." Mario replied.
"I did." said Donkey Kong.
"You don't have a brain at all? That's not possible. If one organ is missing or does not function properly, all other organs won't function properly." Mario explained.
"Well I..." Donkey Kong started to say.
"But if you just so believe that you're brainless, please explain to me, the doctor, how you're still alive." Mario said.
"I can't, I have don't a brain." Donkey Kong said.
"Don't you mean 'I don't have a brain'?" asked Mario.
"You don't have a brain! Oh, I'm so sorry." said Donkey Kong.
"That's not what I meant." Mario corrected.
"No, my grandmother's cat's cousin's frame manufacturer is not currently looking to adopt a wristwatch that gives you the ability to give other people the ability to turn bicycles into bicycles." Donkey Kong told Mario.
Mario and Toado then gave extremely confused faces to Donkey Kong because they never thought they would ever see someone that stupid. This caused Toado to drop his bottle.
"You know what, you should come with me and my friend to the Green-Yellow Municipality." Mario suggested.
"What am we going?" asked Donkey Kong despite the fact Mario just told him.
"Uhhm, we're off to see the magician, the hopefully nice to strange men who wear dresses magician of Ghoraf." Mario answered as he picked up Toado's basket. "I'm gonna ask him to get me some men's clothes, and if he does, he'll probably get you a brain." he continued.
"That's a shame." Donkey Kong said.
"Yeah, you totally should come with us." Mario said before they all got in the water.
"Which way do we go?" Mario asked.
"I don't know." Donkey Kong answered. "Let's go that way and see what happens." he suggested as he pointed right.
They than began to swim on the right path.
