(A quick shot is taken from outside
Castle Koopa.)
Koopa: Oh, my aching head, ooh!
(Inside the castle Koopa is sitting
on his throne and holding an ice pack with crowns on it. He takes off his
crown and puts the ice pack on his head and places the crown on top of
it.)
Koopa: Ooh!
Kooky: It seems you get these headaches
everytime you get clobbered by the Mario Bros.!
(Koopa puts another ice pack on top
of the one he already has.)
Koopa: I could have taken over the
Mushroom Kingdom years ago...
Kooky: If only those nincompoop plumbers
hadn't fallen down that warp zone pipe in Brooklyn.
(A little flower pot with Toad inside
runs along and sits in the corner. A periscope protrudes from it
and listens in on the Koopa conversation. Kooky is pacing back and forth,
trying to think of an evil scheme.)
Kooky: Maybe we can go back and change
history, King Dad. All we need is a little, TIME TRAVEL!
(Koopa nods in agreement. The scene
changes to later, inside the doomship control room. Kooky is fiddling with
a little box.)
Kooky: I've got to be careful, this
is the only time travel tube I've got.
(Toad's flower periscope pokes its
head round the corner and listens to more sinister scheming by the two
Koopas.)
Koopa: I don't see how that silly little
tube is going to get us back to Brooklyn and keep the Mario Bros. from
ever leaving.
Kooky: I know what I'm doing.
(The periscope goes back into the flower
pot. Toad pulls it off his head.)
Toad: Well it's a good thing I planted
myself here. Wait 'til Mario and Luigi hear this!
(Toad runs inside. A later scene once
more. The doomship is floating outside Castle Koopa and is being loaded
with boxes by hundreds of Hammer Brothers. Mario, Luigi and Toad are standing
behind the small crates, staring at one.)
Luigi: Hey, we can't all fit in there!
Mario: Sure we can.
(Mario picks up Luigi and throws him
in the box. He then picks up Toad and does the same. He steps in and puts
the lid on. They are all cramped into a tiny space.)
Toad: Mario's always getting us into
tight spots.
(The box starts moving because a Hammer
Brother is carrying it.)
Hammer Bro.: I must be getting tired,
this crate is ten times as heavy as it was before.
(One Hammer Brother is carrying five
boxes but the one with Mario and co inside can only carry the one. He takes
it inside the doomship and into the main control room. Two Parabeetles
fly out.)
Hammer Bro.: Where should I put these
supplies, your ultimate evilness?
Koopa: Toss 'em over there!
(The Hammer Brother carries them over
to a corner of the room and throws the box down. Toad squeaks like he always
does. Koopa hears it and goes over to the box.)
Koopa: Did you hear something?
Mario (from inside the box): Nope,
just your imagination.
(Koopa starts to walk away but then
realizes what just happend. He's about to open the box when sirens go off
and there is a loud humming.)
Kooky: It's working!
(The time travel tube is glowing neon
pink and making a loud noise.)
Kooky: I'll take us back to that Brooklyn
drain just before noon when the Mario Bros. warped into the Mushroom Kingdom.
(The doomship takes off. Kooky is steering
the ship but Koopa comes up and budges him off.)
Koopa: You're a slowpoke Kooky.
Kooky: But King Dad, it'll blow if
you give it more juice!
(The doomship starts to shake around.)
Kooky: It's going out of control!
(The box with the Marios in it slides
towards the time tube and knocks it into the air. Kooky catches it.)
Kooky: Whoa!
(The box then slides the other way
and smashes into the wall, breaking and spilling Mario, Luigi, and Toad
out onto the floor.)
Koopa: Stowaways? I'll fix you!
Kooky: Forget them, help me! We're
going too far back in time!
(The time tube shines a very bright
light over the doomship.)
Koopa: Hit the brakes!
(The doomship glows and shakes and
then stops. Inside, Mario, Luigi, Koopa, Toad, and Kooky are all babies.
Mario and Luigi still have moustaches while Koopa is sucking on a pacifier.
Koopa spits it out and it bounces off a computer monitor and hits him in
the nose.)
Koopa: Yow!
Luigi: Hey Mario!
(Luigi cries really loud.)
Mario: Don't be a baby Luigi.
Luigi: Hey, but I am a baby. Those
lunk-headed reptiles turned us into toddlers.
Kooky: Maybe I can get us back on course.
(Kooky fiddles with the time tube.)
Koopa: Are we heading back to the right
year Kooky?
(Before Kooky can answer, the doomship
crashes into the ground and the tube rolls away. Mario, Luigi, and Toad
crawl outside.)
Toad: How come we're still babies?
Mario: The crash must have messed up
the time tube.
(They all look up at a clock on the
side of a building and gasp. It says 2:00.)
Mario: We don't have much time to get
to the apartment where we fell down the drain!
Luigi: Well, as small as we are we'll
have to find a short cut.
(Koopa and Kooky poke their head out
from beneath some doomship remnants.)
Koopa: After those diapered dodos!
(They start crawling after them and
the song "Baby Chase" starts up. The Marios crawl and end up at a street
crossing. Everyone honks their horns. The Marios end up in an alley, where
the Koopas corner them. The song ends.)
Koopa: Now we're going to get those
little squirt plumbers cornered!
(They fail as an old lady leaves her
house and starts baby talking with the Koopas.)
Mario: This is our chance, let's scoot.
Old Lady: I love cute babies, coochie
coochie!
(She pulls the blanket back and sees
their faces. She screams ands runs away. The Mario Bros. escape.)
Kooky: Ohh, the Mario babies got away!
Now what do we do?
Koopa: It's time to stop kidding around.
(Kooky is fiddling with the tube and
Koopa is sucking his thumb.)
Kooky: I think this might work, King
Dada.
Koopa: It better, the only way we can
beat those Marios is by getting grown up again.
(The time tube glows and they're back
to their normal selves.)
Kooky: All right!!! King Dad...
you're back to your normal self!
Koopa: Now for the next part of my
disgusting plan.
Luigi: This is the place we fell in
the warp drain and went to the Mushroom Kingdom.
(The babies all crawl up to the door.)
Mario: he lady who lives here
is a little dowdy. Let me do the talking.
(Mario knocks on the door several times.)
Lady: Who's that knocking on my knee?
Oh, goodness gracious, someone's abandoned three babies on my doorstep.
Mario: We're not abandoned, we're plumbers.
You called for us, remember?
(The babies crawl inside but the lady
runs in front and stands in the way.)
Lady: Please, plumbing's too dangerous
for babies. I'll put you down for a nice nap.
(She picks them all up and carries
them into a bed. A van pulls up outside.)
Lady: Wonderful, here come the real
plumbers. (reading the van) Koopa and kid costume plumbers...
(Kooky and Koopa get out and walk towards
the door.)
Kooky: If they think we're in costume,
King Dad, they'll never guess we're not from the Real World. I told you
I'm a genius.
(Koopa knocks on the door and when
the lady opens it Koopa and Kooky raise their hats.)
Koopa: Costume plumbers at your service,
ma'am. We make plumbing a party.
Luigi: Oh, boy. If the Koopas mess
with that drain we'll never get back to our grown-up selves and save the
Mushroom Kingdom!
(In the bathroom, Koopa and Kooky are
looking at the drain.)
Lady: Please fix my drain as quickly
as possible costume plumbers I must bathe for my party tonight.
Koopa: Leave it to us, we'll fix everything.
(Koopa opens the door and pushes the
lady out.)
Mario: We can't let Koopa get away
with this!
Toad: But what can we do?
(Luigi looks down through a window
at a cellar.)
Luigi: Hey, I've got a way to cut Koopa
down to size!
(Luigi is looking at the pipes.)
Luigi: Hey aye, aye-a these pipes are
more tangled than a bowl of cheap spaghetti!
(Luigi points to a corner of a pipe.)
Luigi: Here's the bathtub drainpipe.
Let's open it up.
(Mario tries to turn a monkey wrench
but he can't.)
Mario: Come on you half pints! I need
some baby power!
(Luigi and Toad give him a hand.)
Toad: Now what do we do?
(Mario notices a hose on the floor.)
Mario: We're gonna sneak up behind
them and back flush 'em.
(Back to the bathroom scene.)
Koopa: Get some more stuff to plug
this drain!
(Kooky rushes off and comes back with
a handful of toiletries.)
Kooky: We'll make sure those shrimpy
Mario babies never warp through this pipe!
(Kooky rushes out of the bathroom.
The lady is standing outside.)
Lady: Um ahem. How are you doing in
there, costume plumbers?
Koopa: (from inside the bathroom) Ah,
shut your trap.
Lady: Gracious, how rude! I thought
you made plumbing a party!
(Kooky runs back with stuff.)
Kooky: We do lady, this is a fun game
called stuff your furniture down the drain!!!
(Kooky runs inside the bathroom and
closes the door.)
Mario: Ok, time to stop playing patty
cake. Turn on the water.
Luigi: Hey, now we'll really put the
pressure on those phony Koopa plumbers!
Koopa: Kooky, help me! Our clog is
unclogging!
(A flood begins. The lady spots the
flood.)
Lady: (scream) What are they doing
to my house?
(She runs into the living room and
picks up a phone.)
Lady: I'd better get help!
(Kooky headed outside and is looking
into the cellar. He can see the babies.)
Kooky: Oh, so that's our problem!
Mario: The Koopas cut off the water!
Koopa: Well, what do we have here?
Some bratty Brooklyn bambinos?
Mario: Quick, crawl after me!
(Mario crawls into a big brown pipe
followed by Luigi and Toad. Koopa and Kooky pull it up. Mairo's head pops
out of one side and Luigi's out of the other side.)
Luigi: Hey, oh, what do you think you're
doing?
Koopa: Sealing your fate!
Kooky: Now the Super Mario Bros. will
never get to the Mushroom Kingdom!
(Koopa and Kooky walk away evilly.
Toad pokes his head out of the main pipe that they didn't pull up.)
Mario and Luigi: Help, let us out!
(Toad crawls out of a hose into the
outside world.)
Toad: Yow! Phew, am I brave.
(Back in town, the doomship takes off.
Toad runs underneath it.)
Toad: Ahhhhh!
(Toad jumps up and crawls onboard.)
Koopa: With the Mario Bros. permanently
stuck in Brooklyn as permanent babies, I can finally capture the princess
and enslave her people.
Kooky: My time travel thing is working
great!
(Toad's flower pot periscope grabs
the time tube and pulls it away. Toad (now fully grown) props it up on
one of the portholes in the doomship.
Toad: If I can just focus this time
tube beam on the basement window...
(Toad fiddles with a couple of switches
and a beam shoots into the lady's basement window, making the Mario Bros.
grow to full size. The pipe smashes around them.)
Luigi: Hey, I'm a full-sized hunk again!
What happened?
Mario: Beats me, but we've only got
30 seconds to unclog that drain!
(Mario and Luigi run off upstairs.
They sit in the tub throwing stuff out. The lady stands by the door watching.)
Luigi This just about does it.
(Mario pulls out a big blue hairball.)
Mario: And here's the hairy clog that
started it all.
Lady: Finally, real plumbers. Why don't
you stay for my party?
Mario: Thanks, but we've got a date
with a princess.
(They both jump into the tub and warp
down the drain. Back in the Mushroom Kingdom, Koopa is holding up a charter
to the princess and holding her arm.)
Koopa: If you know what's good for
ya, you'll sign over your kingdom now!
Kooky: (holding Toad down) Better do
what King Dad says, Princess. The Super Mario Bros. are stuck in the past!
Mario: Don't count on it Koopas!
(The Mario Bros. leap out of a warp
pipe with Raccoon power. Princess and Toad run over to them.)
Luigi: We unclogged the past!
Mario: And now we are going to clog
you out of the Mushroom Kingdom. Hairball!
Koopa: Rats, this is even worse than
the first time the Mario Bros. got here! Time to koop on out Kooky!
(Koopa koops out to the nearest warp
pipe with his wand. Luigi stands behind Kooky and bats him into the warp
with his Raccoon tail.)
Princess: Good going guys. That'll
teach Koopa, never mess with history.
Mario: Or with us.
Luigi: Yeah, maybe next time old Koopa
will pick on someone his own size! Heh heh!
(Mario and Luigi give each other a
brotherly hug.)
