Mario was chasing after the Big Bullet Bill, who challenged the red-capped Italian American plumber to a race. Mario jumped over the blocks that were on his way, turning right as he tried tossing his red hot fireballs at the Bullet Bill. The Bullet Bill didn't bother stopping as it propelled forward, leaving Mario to eat the dust. Mario tried dashing as fast as he could, but he tripped, landing flat on his face as a lone green Koopa shell was coming in contact, knocking him back into the air. Lying on the ground, Mario got up and dashed right after the Bullet Bill, being rather behind as he jumped over the bricks, forgetting to turn to the right as he bumped into a large boulder, the Bullet Bill flying off into the sky.

Kevin, Bobby, and Birdo all shook their heads in dismay as they watched Mario rub his nose in pain, shouting for the Bullet Bill to get back for unfairlingly cheating.
