-Chapter 25-
Fight Like an Egyptian
Bowser's Castle
Deep in the bowels of the castle, Bowser sat upon his throne, watching as his newest minion, the Blue Hood, beat the snot out of Mario and Luigi…
"BWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!"
…and loving every minute of it.
"Awww man, she's totally clobbering them!"
He stuffed his face with a tub of popcorn, watching in anticipation as the video showed the part where Blue Hood punched Mario in the stomach and nearly choked as the plumber in red gasped in pain.
"Oh man, I gotta get Wendy to post this on her social blogger-whosits! This'll go viral for sure!"
As he laughed, he caught a faint light out of the corner of his eye. Looking over his shoulder, he saw his newest minion exit a portal that had just opened up.
"I'm back!" Mary Pat greeted as she removed her helmet.
"Ahhh, if it isn't the star of the show!" Bowser greeted loudly as he waved his half-empty popcorn bucket in the air. "Welcome back, Mips...or should I say, Blue Hood?"
MP grinned at that. "I take it you enjoyed my little performance, Your Evilness?"
"Well..."
"He's been watching the same footage of you punching Mario in the stomach almost non-stop," Kamek said as he entered the room with a full bucket of popcorn. "Seriously, it's like those ten-hour extension videos on the Interwebz everyone seems to enjoy for some reason."
"They uppercut me into my own Fire Sea, Kamek!" Bowser shouted as he took the bucket. "This is beyond cat-heart-ic!"
"I think you mean 'cathartic'," MP corrected. "Which it totally was."
"That too." The Koopa King shoved another handful of popcorn in his mouth.
"I do have one concern, however," Kamek began. "Why did you let them run away? Why not finish them off?"
MP looked at Kamek like he had grown a second head while Bowser choked on his popcorn.
"What!?" they both shouted.
"Kamek, are you crazy!?" Mips demanded.
"They're our enemies," Kamek explained. "They fractured our empire and left you and your family on their own. They need to be dealt with. I mean, isn't that what you want?"
"No." MP shook her head. "Regardless of how angry I am at them right now or what they did, Mario and Luigi are still my brothers."
The Magikoopa gave her a serious, but not unkind look. "You do remember that His Nastiness tried to end their games not too long ago, right?"
Bowser, who had managed to regain control of himself, quickly took control of the situation.
"That was before I discovered a much more pleasurable means of victory." A massive grin spread across his face. "Their abject humiliation! If there's one thing more satisfying than crushing a hero's body, it's crushing their spirit. Mario and Luigi have become icons, beloved by the people for vanquishing me. Imagine how they'll feel once they see their heroes battered and broken just like all the other pathetic mooks who dared to oppose me. They'll think their last victory was a fluke."
Kamek nodded his head in understanding, appreciating the amount of thought put into the plan.
"So long as it doesn't come back to bite us, sire."
"And so long as I'm not ending my brothers' games," MP chimed in.
"Of course not," Bowser promised, gently patting her head. "Now, run along. I think Iggy was wanting to see you."
"Oh yeah! He wanted to make sure the Koopa Soopa Suit didn't sustain any damage." She began running off, waving behind her. "Enjoy the footage, Bowser! Ciao!"
Bowser gave her one last wave as she left, before returning his attention to the video, just in time to see Mario and his friends run for their lives.
"Oh, good Grambi, my ribs!" he chortled, sighing happily. "I could watch this all day…So, I will!"
He eagerly rewound the video, leaving Kamek to sigh in exasperation.
Back in the Pyramid...
Mario and Co. were left face-to-face with the Boo. The ghost slowly advanced toward them, letting out a high-pitched cackle and stretching its face out. Luigi, Toad, and Yoshi were completely paralyzed with fear (especially Luigi), but Mario on the other hand…
"That's a Boo?"
Not so much.
"Seriously, that's the big, scary ghostie Captain Ayam was so worried about? It doesn't look all that scary to me."
The ghost froze in place and raised an eyebrow, wondering why the man in red wasn't terrified.
"Mario, are you serious!?" Luigi asked incredulously. "We're standing in front of an honest to Mushroom World God ghost!"
"Aren't red man scared!?" Yoshi demanded.
Mario shook his head. "Not really. I mean, it looks like a giant marshmallow with arms."
The Boo's mouth opened wide in shock, as did Toad and Yoshi's.
"If anything, it looks kinda cute."
The Boo let out a strange noise as its eyes widened; Toad and Yoshi mirroring its actions.
"Did hood girl hit red man too hard!?"
"Mario, the last thing you ever wanna do is call a Boo cute!" Toad cried.
"Oh come on, Toad," he motioned to the ghost. "Look at this thing, it's downright…"
"Don't say it!"
"A-dor-a-blllllllllleeeeee…"
Time seemed to slow down as the Boo's (and Toad, Yoshi, and Luigi's) eyes shrunk down to pinpricks, unable to believe what Mario had just said. The red man just shook his head.
"Seriously, we got worried for absolutely noth–"
"WRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!"
Mario's eyes widened in shock. The Boo had suddenly grown three times its original size, its wide mouth opening even wider, and its teeth growing much longer and sharper. It let out a garbled, demonic shriek that caused the entire pyramid to shake and left the heroes quaking in fear…even Mario.
"Well…" the previously unfazed older Mario brother said. "I take it back."
He blinked for a second.
"RUN FOR YOUR LIIIIIIIIIIIVES!"
The four bolted off, the Boo giving chase as it cackled like a loon. The organ music began to pick up, the tempo growing faster and more ominous.
"Why did you make fun of the ghost!?" Luigi shouted at his brother. "You're never supposed to make fun of the ghost!"
"How was I supposed to know it was hiding that nightmare face?!"
"We warned you!" Toad reprimanded.
"Warn me harder next time!"
"Yell later, run now!" Yoshi shouted.
With his prey sufficiently terrorized, the Boo leapt into the air to pounce on them.
"Book it!" Mario shouted.
They increased their pace, causing the Boo to miss and phase through the floor.
With their spectral pursuer gone, the group rounded the corner to take a moment to catch their breath.
"Whew!" Toad wiped the sweat from his brow. "Is it gone? Did we lose it?"
"I...I think so," Mario said, peeking around the corner to make sure. "Yeah, it's gone. I think we're-"
"OOOGA-BOOGA-BOOGA!" the Boo shouted as it leapt through the floor, making its nightmare face.
The heroes jumped; Luigi screamed in terror as he jumped into Mario's arms.
The Boo advanced closer, preparing to do whatever unspeakable things it had planned for the four, when suddenly it froze in place as its ears were greeted by an unusual sound.
"What that weird noise?" Yoshi asked.
Mario closed his eyes and listened. "It sounds like a…vacuum cleaner?"
"Ho-ho! Now I've got you, you overgrown marshmallow with arms! Prepare to be sucked off..." The figure cut off their remark with a cough, "into the clutches of…" a diminutive figure stepped into the torchlight. "Professor Elvin Gadd!"
The Boo let out a trilling screech of what sounded like terror as it attempted to fly away from the professor, only for Plum to leap out of the shadows.
"Oh no you don't!" Gadd's assistant rushed forward, aiming a flashlight at the spherical specter, causing it to freeze in place and cover its eyes as it wailed in pain.
"Good work, Plum!" E. Gadd called out. "Now for the clincher!"
He heaved the nozzle of his vacuum, lifting the Boo over his shoulder and slamming it into the ground behind him. He repeated this several times, each time eliciting a grunt of pain from the hapless ghost.
"Had enough?" he asked. The Boo's response was to peel itself off the floor and groan. "Good, now to end this!"
Gadd flipped a switch on his vacuum, causing its suction to intensify.
"Activating max sucking power! Switching to…Deep Shag!"
The Boo began shrieking in terror as it was pulled toward the cleaning device. It pawed at the floor in a desperate attempt at freedom, but it was all for naught. The suction lifted it off the ground, pulling it into the nozzle before it disappeared into the tubes with a pop! Once it was gone, the creepy mist from before vanished, and the organ music came to a halt. E. Gadd wiped his brow, sighing in satisfaction.
"Excellent! Another Boo for the collection pool," he declared, heaving the vacuum onto his shoulder.
"Professor E. Gadd!? Plum!?"
The two scientists perked, seeing Mario and co. standing nearby.
Plum's eyes widened. "Mario!? Luigi!?"
"Well, hello here, boys!" the professor greeted. "Fancy running into you here."
"Professor, what are you doing here?" Luigi asked.
"Why, my job of course." he adjusted his glasses. "I believe I mentioned my work in the study of paranormal and metaphysical phenomena in the last story arc."
Mario and Luigi blinked in confusion.
"Story…"
"...arc?"
"Just ignore him, guys," Plum sighed. "You know he's a bit... out there."
"Now now, Plum," E. Gadd lightly chastised. "Just because the lights are dim upstairs doesn't mean the juice is all gone. Let's just be happy that we're reunited with our old friends…" he motioned to each one. "Mario, Luigi, Toad, and..." Only to pause when he reached Yoshi.
"And...Uhhhh…"
"Yoshi!" the dinosaur replied.
"Ahh! Yoshi, yes! Who could forget good old Yoshi!"
"Yoshi not know tiny old man."
"Hey! I may be tiny and old but…"
"Professor?" Mario cut in.
"Right, of course." E. Gadd cleared his throat. "So, what are you two boys doing all the way out here? Taking some time to see the rest of our wacky worlds?"
"Actually, we're on a mission."
"Oooh! A mission, you say? What kind of mission?"
Mario twiddled his thumbs. "Well..."
-X-
One explanation later...
"And that's when you two showed up."
"Hmm...very interesting." E. Gadd nodded sagely. "Pardon me for a moment..."
He took a deep breath…
"Gadzooks! Bowser's children are invading the Mushroom World to avenge their father's horrible demise at our hands!?"
"One Bowser was bad enough, but now we have SEVEN?!" Plum shrieked.
"It's not all bad though," Toad said. "Mario and Luigi took down Larry, no sweat!"
"Did Mushroom Man forget Blue Hood girl?" Yoshi deadpanned.
"Not a Koopaling, doesn't count."
"Blue Hood Girl?" Plum asked.
"New minion," Mario explained. "Super tough. Beat our butts."
"I see…" E. Gadd thought for a moment, then stopped. "Well, we'd best let you all get going. Come, Plum. Let's give this place one last sweep."
"Umm, one last thing…" Luigi cut in, causing everyone to turn to him. "How do we get out of here?"
Outside the Pyramid, an hour later
"Finally...light!" Luigi shouted as he ran outside, the others trailing behind him, dead tired.
"I can't believe...it took us an hour...to get out!" Toad panted. "That crackpot wouldn't know a compass from a cucumber!"
"Yoshi...no like...tiny, bald man."
Suddenly, a loud, bellowing noise drew their attention, followed by shouting.
"Move it, you smelly, lumpy horse!
"What the...!?" Mario cried out. "That sounded like our camel!"
-X-
Meanwhile, Morton was pulling at the camel's reins, trying to get it to move.
"Come on! Move your humps, camel! I don't got all day!"
The camel pulled against the reins, trying to get away as several Koopa Troopas in Egyptian garb (1) threatened it with their swords.
"Listen, you stupid animal!" the Koopa prince shouted. "I gotta get your fat, hairy butt back to the palace ASAP! So stop being stupid and-!"
Before Morton could finish, the camel spat in his face.
"Yoooooooou…"
"I think that means he doesn't like you."
Morton perked, spinning around to see Mario and his friends standing there.
"You must be Morton Jr," Mario said, narrowing his eyes.
"Indeed I am!" Morton chuckled, slapping his chest. "I'm King Bowser's second-born son! The one, the only, the ruggedly handsome, totally invincible, and completely unstoppable Morton! Koopa! JUNIOR! And you must be the rat stink plumbers who ended my father's game and kicked my little brother's butt. You're gonna pay for that!"
"Yeah yeah," Mario said, more annoyed than anything. "Listen, I'm still a bit pissed at that blue hooded Koopa that called me and my brother Guidos. So unfortunately, you're about to take the brunt of my fury."
"Ohhh don't even get me started on fury, Redman," Morton said. "You wanna talk about fury? Try spending the next three months wondering where the heck your father is and why he hasn't been answering any of your calls after finally kidnapping Princess Toadstool!"
"Yeah, I..."
"Seriously, we've been trying to snatch that poofy, pink cupcake for years! But she always managed to keep us away thanks to that Heart Power of hers. I mean, you'd think something called Heart Power would be ultra weaksauce or super girly. Nope! Near-ultimate anti-evil magic. And I thought Starmen were broken. Speaking of Starmen, how did you guys manage to nab the one you got when you escaped from the Dimble Wood castle? I…"
He continued to go on for a while... only to hear snoring. He looked up to see Mario had fallen asleep on his feet (2).
"Hey! Wake up, doofus!"
Mario snapped awake at that.
"Oh, sorry," he said. "You were going on for so long that I nodded off."
Morton choked, a vein popping on his forehead.
"Rip off his mustache and choke him with it," he ordered his soldiers.
"Yes, sir!"
"CHAAAAAARGE!"
With that, the Koopas rushed the heroes, weapons drawn and out for blood.
"Finally, some excitement!" Mario shouted, punching his fists together.
"Mario!" Luigi called out. "Focus on Morton, bro! We've got these guys!"
"Right!"
With that, Mario leapt into the air and started hopping off the Koopas' heads, making his way to Morton.
The Koopa prince whistled. "Wow, he is good." He then summoned his own magic wand. "Guess I'd better get serious!"
Morton spun the wand in his hand like a baton. The scepter gave off a flash and when it stopped, it had transformed into a hammer.
Mario raised an eyebrow. "A Hammer? Really?"
"A magic hammer," Morton corrected. "A magic hammer that can do...THIS!"
Morton slammed the hammer onto the ground, conjuring a massive pillar of sand to rise right below Mario.
"Right, magic hammer," he whispered nervously, only to smirk. "I'm taking it."
He ran forward to try and do just that, only to be thrown in the air by a new sand column.
"Red man!" Yoshi cried.
"Yes!" Morton cheered. "Now to set things up!"
Morton slammed the hammer again, sending several sand spikes into the air after Mario.
"Not good!" Mario waved his arms, narrowly avoiding the spikes; much to Morton's frustration.
"DIE!" he shouted, slamming the hammer and sending even more spikes out, far more than Mario could hope to dodge.
"Oh no!" the plumber cried out.
"Ha! Let's see you dodge that, you fat–!"But before Morton could finish, he was knocked off his feet as something barrelled right into him…
"Greeeeeen Missile!"
It was Luigi, launching himself sideways like a rocket. He dusted himself off as he watched the Koopa Prince skid a few feet, dropping his hammer and face-planting into the sand. As he did, the sand spikes collapsed harmlessly into dust, allowing Mario to continue falling right onto Yoshi's "saddle" safely. Morton lifted his head, spitting out a small pile of sand.
"You…" he growled as he turned toward the heroes. "How the heck did you get past all my Troop–!?"
Only for Toad to bonk him on the head with his skillet, knocking him out.
"Nobody ever pays attention to me," Luigi said, grabbing the hammer before grinning in satisfaction as he rubbed the underside of his nose with his index finger.
"You act like you're the one who hit him," Toad groused.
"Semantics."
At that, Mario and Yoshi joined them.
"Thanks for the save there, guys." He hopped off of Yoshi. "But how did you take out all the Koopas?"
Luigi grimaced as he pointed off. "Well…"
Mario followed Luigi's finger and immediately went slack-jawed at what he saw. The area was littered with Koopa shells; their wearers lying flat on the ground, surrounded by eggshell pieces and wearing nothing but their underwear and looks of terror.
"What in the world…?" Before Mario could continue, he noticed a few green-spotted eggs similar to the one Yoshi laid containing Luigi's favorite mug. A large crack formed on one of the eggs, then immediately broke apart, freeing a disrobed Koopa Troopa, who fell to the sands, completely traumatized.
"Mommy…" the hapless turtle whispered.
Another egg hatched, revealing a second Koopa, who ran away in horror screaming as another one broke free, curled up in a fetal position.
"I've been violated…" he said.
Mario blinked, still processing what he was seeing, before turning to Yoshi.
"Did you–?" he began.
"Yup!" Yoshi confirmed. Suddenly, his eyes went wide. "Uh oh! One sec…"
He screwed his face, clenched his fists, and popped out another egg. It rolled for a little bit, then cracked in half to reveal a Koopa. They had a completely deadpan expression as they wavered in place.
"There is no Grambi…" they whimpered before falling forward and faceplanting in the sand, leaving Mario gaping in confusion and horror.
"So.." he began, his eye twitching. "It's not just coffee cups you turn into eggs when you swallow them."
"Nope," Yoshi nodded. "Anything Yoshi swallow become egg."
"Including people…terrifyingly enough," Luigi finished. "Just tell me that was the last one…"
"Yep! Yoshi all done!"
Luigi wiped his brow at that. As he did, he noticed the camel staring at the hammer in his hand with wide eyes. His own furrowing a bit, he moved the hammer to the left. The camel in turn moved their head to follow it. The same thing happened in every direction Luigi moved the hammer. After a moment, he had a lightbulb moment.
"I wonder…"
He approached the camel, who sat down in the sand and lowered its head. Carefully, the green-clad plumber gently tapped the camel on the forehead with the hammer. The animal began to glow, being swallowed in a white like. The silhouette began to shrink to about the size of a Toad. As the light faded away, a Toad was standing where the camel had once been. One dressed in a regal robe, along with a Pharaoh's crown complete with a fake beard.
"Ahhh! I'm myself again! Praise Brighton!" the Toad cheered.
"What the...Camel turn to mushroom man!?" Yoshi shouted.
"Just as I suspected," Luigi said with a grin. "The camel was Pharaoh Bes all along!"
"Wait, you knew?!" Mario asked incredulously.
"I had a hunch." Luigi shrugged. "I mean, come on, it knew how to get to the Pyramid and how to open the secret passage. And it came up to us the minute Floyd's employees presented it. It knew who we were."
"But of course!" Pharaoh Bes declared. "I doubt there's a soul in the Mushroom World who doesn't know of the Super Mario Bros."
"Yeah, makes sense." Mario nodded. "So... how'd you wind up with that goon?"
"Well," Bes began. "After I was transformed by Morton, I immediately bit him. The girl with him couldn't stop laughing as he screamed; so, I ran. I attempted to hide amongst some of the gathered camels at the gate unaware that they were to be sold, and that Floyd character BOUGHT ME! For cheap! I don't know what's worse, being turned into a beast of burden or being sold for a pittance of three hundred coins!"
"Umm, Pharaoh Bes… quick question," Luigi began. "The girl you saw, could you... describe her?"
Bes thought for a moment. "I'm afraid I wasn't able to get a good look at her. All I know is that she had brown hair and red eyes."
"Red eyes?" Luigi's brow furrowed a bit. "I see…thank you."
"Something up, Luigi?" Toad asked.
"Well, I–"
"Whatever it is, we can worry about it later!" Mario declared. "We've got five more kingdoms to save and five more kings about to be turned into animals! We gotta beat it! Like, now!"
"In that case, perhaps I can help." Bes reached into his robes and presented Mario with a recorder. "Take this Magic Whistle."
"Magic…Whistle?" Mario asked.
"If you play it, it will take you to a special Pipe Cluster island in the Pipe Kingdom," Bes explained. "One that can take you almost anywhere in the Mushroom World! Ask for Sonny, he's the operator."
"Yeah…okay…" Mario blinked, looking at the whistle. "I have no idea how to play this thing."
"Neither do I," Luigi said.
Bes sighed as he reached into his robe again; this time, pulling out a small jewel.
"Here…" He handed the jewel to Mario, who took it curiously. "Undo the bottom part of the whistle and insert the gem. Once it's in place, it should automatically play the correct tune."
Toad snorted at that. "Heh. The Super Mario Brothers need the baby recorder."
"I'm sorry, do you know how to play it?"
Toad made to say something smugly…
"No…"
Only to sag in defeat, the wind taken out of his sails.
At that, Mario nodded, then blew the whistle. As Bes had said, the instrument automatically played a melody. After that, the heroes waited.
"Did…it do anything?" Luigi asked.
"Yoshi don't think so," the dino said.
"Guys…" Toad said nervously. "I think the wind's picking up!"
Suddenly, a massive twister surrounded the four heroes, whisking them away as they screamed.
"Take care!" Bes called out. "And as for you, Mr. Koo…pa?"
Bes to where Morton had fallen; but, to his surprise, the Koopa Prince - along with most of his minions, suddenly vanished.
"What the…?" Bes looked around. "Where did he…?"
"Pharaoh Bes!"
Bes turned around to see Captain Ayam and his men running toward him.
"Captain Ayam!" the pharaoh called out, running over to his men, who all bowed in his presence.
"Your Excellency, you're alright!"
"That I am, Captain." Bes nodded. "You may rise."
Ayam and his men obeyed. "Pharaoh, we've been searching everywhere for you! What happened?"
"That story will have to wait, Captain," Bes explained. "Tell me, did any of you see a large Koopa with a large mouth?"
Ayam and the guards shook their heads.
"I'm afraid not, My Pharaoh."
"I see…" Bes thought. "And what of the Boos?"
"Ahhhh…and that takes care of that!"
Bes and his guardsmen turned toward the pyramid, just in time to see E. Gadd and Plum exit, looking very satisfied.
"Professor!" Pharaoh Bes called out.
"Ahh, Your Highness, Captain!" E. Gadd greeted. "We were just about to go looking for you. We've just finished sweeping."
"The Great Pyramid is 100% Boo-free!" Plum said with a salute.
"Wonderful!" Bes clapped his hands in delight. "Thank you again for your services. I will have your payment taken from the treasury as soon as we reclaim my palace."
"Oh, goodie!" E. Gadd twiddled his fingers eagerly. "Finally, I can fix that blasted coffee machine that Basilisx ruined!"
"And I can get Duppy a new bone," Plum sighed fondly.
"One last thing," Bes said, his expression turning grim. "Have either of you seen a large Koopa? Large mouth? Probably sporting a rather large lump on his head?"
Both scientists thought for a moment, then shook their heads.
"Can't say we have," E. Gadd said.
"I see…" Bes nodded. "What about a girl in a blue hood?"
"Sorry," Plum replied. "The only baddies we saw were the ghosts."
"Well, if you see them, let me know," Bes said.
"Speaking of seeing things," E. Gadd cut in. "We are also searching for something."
"One of the Professor's colleagues discovered a strange artifact in an archaeological dig not too long before the invasion started," Plum explained. "But one day, the artifact was stolen."
"What was this artifact, Miss Plum?" Captain Ayam asked.
Both Plum and E. Gadd exchanged looks, ones etched with unease and terror.
Bowser's Castle
Meanwhile... Mips met up with Iggy in his lab. The Koopa Prince was looking over a computer, a look of manic glee on his face.
"Yes…Yeeeeeesssssss…ooooh the Soopa Suit works even better than I expected!" He narrowed his eyes. "Still got some bugs, but it works!"
"Insanely well!" Mips praised. "My reaction time was off though, the only reason I won was because they got cocky, but don't tell Bowser that."
"Mum's the word," Iggy said. "At this rate, I'll be able to get the suit to mass production in no time! Maybe then Dad will finally give that creep Phanto the boot!"
Mips perked. "Phanto? Who's Phanto?"
Iggy grimaced. "He's–"
Suddenly, a scream tore through the castle, startling everyone.
"What the Chomp was that!?" Iggy shouted before running off.
"Iggy, wait up!" Mips called out.
The pair made their way to one of the barracks, where they found several Koopas lying on the floor. They were babbling incoherently; their bodies pale and withered, and their faces frozen in masks of terror.
"Oh geez…" Iggy winced.
Mips looked on in shock. "What the f–"
"AHHHHHHH!"
The duo looked ahead to see a hooded figure standing off to the side, holding up a Koopa Troopa by his neck. Wispy, green trails of energy billowed from the poor turtle's eyes, nose, and mouth and into the figure's face. The Koopa's body shriveled up like all the others; after which, the figure threw him aside like a crumpled soda can.
"Delicious!" the figure declared, wiping their mouth on their sleeve. They then perked, turning toward the newly arrived Iggy and Mips, allowing the latter to get a look at his face: a round, smiling mask, one-half white, the other, red.
"Well hello there," the figure greeted. "You must be the new recruit."
He flourished elaborately before bowing dramatically.
"My name is Phanto, another soldier of Bowser. A pleasure to make your acquaintance…" Phanto's eyes glowed a sickening, ghostly green. "Mary Pat Mario."

(2): Taking from the bits in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door where Mario falls asleep standing up listening to boring stories.
And thus, the Koopahari Desert has been saved, and Pharaoh Bes has been restored. Up next is the Seaside Kingdom, as well as the continued drama unfolding with Mary Pat and the Koopalings.
