Mario has made it to Rogueport College a.k.a. University of Goom, where he will talk with Professor Frankly about this so called "legendary door".
ADMINISTRATOR: Welcome to Rogueport, where we have the crappiest college ever... wait, aren't you a little too old to be attending?
MARIO: Well, you see, I just came by to talk to the professor, that's all.
ADMINISTRATOR: Well, you'll have to wait 'cause Professor Frankly's busy with his students at the moment. In the meantime, why don't you just take a seat.
Mario took a seat next to some pirate guy.
PIRATE: Hey, I know you, you're Mario, aren't you?
MARIO: Uh, yeah, that's me. And you are...?
PIRATE: Name's Flavio: the richest man in Rogueport.
MARIO: Oh, and what's that red skull you're holding?
FLAVIO: This? This is the Skull Gem which has been passed down through generations of my family, which means it will not be mine forever, 'cause I will eventually pass it down to my eldest kid one day.
MARIO: So, you're the eldest out of all your siblings?
FLAVIO: Yeah, I have two brothers and one sister.
MARIO: Coolio!
Just then, Mario notices the students walking out of the school.
ADMINISTRATOR: Okay, uh, Mario, now you can talk to Mr. Frankly.
MARIO: Oh, thank you so much, ma'am.
Mario then got up and went to the Professor's office as Flavio started singing about Stache Red and Stache Blue. Mario knocked on his door.
FRANKLY: Goombella? Is that you?
MARIO: No, it's Mario. Can I come in your office for just a sec?
FRANKLY: Sure.
Mario then opened the door and stepped into his office.
FRANKLY: If you wanna get to Petal Meadows, look for pipe beneath the town.
MARIO: Actually, I was wanting to know about this so-called thousand-year door.
FRANKLY: Dismissed!
MARIO: Fine.
He opens the door and is about to head out.
MARIO: I'll find it, myself!
He then slams the door which gives Frankly a shocked expression. Mario climbed over the fence and was about to go down that warp pipe, when suddenly a familiar looking Goomba family approached him.
GOOMBARIO: Hey Mario!
MARIO: Aah, Goombario, what's up?
GOOMBARIO: Nothing much, just taking vay-cay with my fam!
GOOMAMA: Son, you're so funny sometimes.
GOOMPAPA: Hey Mario, you going on an exciting adventure?
MARIO: Well actually, I was about to go see some thousand year old door, and then I'm gonna head back to my family for my vay-cay!
GOOMPA: Aah, coolio!
GOOMA: How's Peach doing?
MARIO: Well, we broke up.
GOOMPA: I'm so sorry, man.
MARIO: It's fine, she's been a jerk to me anyway.
GOOMBARIO: Tell me about it.
GOOMBARIA: Aren't you going to get another girlfriend?
Mario then started thinking about that girl Goomba that got attacked earlier.
GOOMBARIO: You alright?
MARIO: Yeah, it's... nothing, really.
GOOMBARIA: No, there's gotta be something wrong.
MARIO: Okay okay, I-I'm in love with... a Goomba.
The Goombas got startled at this while Goompa and Gooma passed out.
MARIO: I know, crazy story.
GOOMBARIO: Wow, crazy! Who's her name?
MARIO: I don't really know, I'm assuming it's Goombella.
GOOMBARIO: You mean that girl Goomba with the miner helmet.
MARIO: That's the same one that I saw earlier.
GOOMBARIA: I hope you find her, Mayro!
MARIO: Thanks Goombaria. I gotta go.
GOOMBARIO: Take care, Mario, and good luck.
Mario then went down the pipe with Frankly running after him, accidentally knocking down his fence as a result. They both made it down to the sewers. Mario noticed Frankly following him.
MARIO: Professor Frankly, what are you doing here.
FRANKLY: I came here to tell you that you gotta collect the seven Crystal Stars in order to open the Thousand-Year Door, but where to find these Crystal Stars?
MARIO: I literally saw it open before.
FRANKLY: But that door has been sealed shut by the Crystal...!
? ? ?: Hey, what's up, dude? Who's the hottie you got there?
MARIO: Who's there? What hottie? I don't have any chicks with me!
Turns out it was actually a trio of Goombas, one with a spiky helmet and one with wings.
SPIKY GOOMBA: Hey babe, do you wanna go out with us? We play real nice.
PARAGOOMBA: Man, what's a fine looking Goomba doing with a fat man like that.
FRANKLY: What the frick?!?
MARIO: No messages.[English]
GOOMBA: Ouch! That was cold!
PARAGOOMBA: What, you're too good for us? Come off it, sister!
SPIKY GOOMBA: Nobody zings us like that! Nobody! Let's get 'em!
FRANKLY: A Goomba, a Spiky Goomba, and a Paragoomba! My! The whole Goomba family tree!
GOOMBA: Oh, there's actually more of us, idiot!
FRANKLY: The only one I should warn you about is that fellow in the middle: the Spiky Goomba. See that spike on his head? Well, jump on that and you're the one who'll take damage!
MARIO: You don't have to warn me about him, I already know how to beat Goombas!
FRANKLY: The Paragoomba's airborne, so your hammer won't reach. You'll have to jump for him.
MARIO: Nonsense!
FRANKLY: Always take your opponent's situation into consideration when fighting! Always!
MARIO: Yes, I get it!
FRANKLY: ...Oh! That's right! I forgot to tell you something vital! You can change the order you two attack in! You can attack first if you feel like it, Goombella! Don't forget that!
MARIO: Oh, watch this!
Mario then threw his Ultra Hammer at the winged Goomba, threw the spiked helmet out of the Spiky Goomba and jumped on him and the ordinary Goomba. The trio then ran away.
MARIO: No messages.[English]. Are you ready, Mario. Ready to open the legendary door, I know you're ready!
Mario (who is now all by himself again since who knows where Professor Frankly went while he was dealing with the Goombas) started proceeding to head for the Thousand-Year Door.
To Be Continued
P.S.: This is based off of a glitch where Frankly thinks Goombella is there even though she isn't because you skipped her.
