You may pet him.

Just, uh...

don't move your hands around

like a small wounded animal.

You must be the Great Koopa.

That I am.

Ruler of all that you see.

A few...

miserable streets and...

endless desert.

You've done a lovely job.

Well...

thank you.

Where's my father?

Um! Ah.

He's around.

You are so fresh.

And so clean.

Don't fight it.

You know you've always been

uncomfortable in the human world.

And you've at least suspected

that you were...

different.

I've suspected a lot of things.

But not that I...

That you descended

from the dinosaurs.

And you know what they say...

about little girls, don't you?

- No.

- Hmm?

They say they never forget...

the first time they're

kissed by a lizard.

Take her away.

I'll need to... use her later.

Throwback.

Plumbers. Affirmative!

Come, come, come, quickly!

- Quickly, after them, cousin!

- I'm with you, cousin.

Go forward!

That way, cuz!

Go right! Go right!

- Ah! Ah! Ah!

- In the name of King Koopa.

- We arrest you!

- Surrender immediately!

If you two don't start talkin'...

We gonna leave ya

to these guys... for lunch.

- Now, where's Daisy?

- No, no, no.

- Where's the rock, scalawag?

- Where's Daisy, butt breath?

Where's the rock,

overweening rogue?

- Not until you give us Daisy, biscuit head!

- Where is the rock?

Shut up!

Now, what's with this rock?

The rock is a piece

of a special meteorite...

which was chipped off

upon impact 65 million years ago.

Once this rock is reinserted

into the meteorite...

our two dimensions will reunite

and we will become one.

And our cousin, Koopa, shall become

ruler of both our worlds.

I don't get it.

- Why didn't he come through before like you clowns?

- You fools!

It's been sealed off for years until

someone on your side blasted it open again.

Scapelli.

What if we get you the rock?

Will you get us Daisy?

- Oh. Yeah.

- Yes...

I think that proposal would

mutually benefit both our parties.

- Okay, now, hand over the rock.

- Someone took it.

By the bar. That lady with

the red spikes who mugged us...

- Was she corpulent? Very corpulent?

- No, she's just really round.

Ah- ha! Big Bertha,

the bouncer at the Boom Boom Bar!

Hey. Don't do that.

You'll hurt yourself.

Oh.

I guess we're both

prisoners here, huh?

Look!

We'll hijack a sludge gulper...

- and drive into the city!

- Then what?

First we get the rock, then

we'll take ya to Daisy in the tower.

Get your wrench.

Oh, man,

I lost all my tools!

Ah! Come on, let's go.

Come on! What are you waitin' for?

It's clear.

- We did it! We did it!

- Yeah!

- I'm brilliant!

- For mammals, you guys are quite acceptable.

- Isn't this a little bit feminine?

- It was my ex- wife's.

But you wear this stuff?

- Yes, on occasion we have a date.

- Who do ya date, a canary?

# 'Tain't no big thing #

# To wait for the bell to ring #

# 'Tain't no big thing #

# The toll of the bell #

Here, bring the tags back.

Thank you.

# Aggravated, I stare for days #

# I stroll downtown

to the red light place #

# Jump up, bubble up

what's in store #

- # Love is the drug and I need to score #

- Look for the red spikes.

# Show him out, show him out

hit and run #

# Boy meets girl

where the beat goes on #

Hi. You're looking for those plumbers?

Well, I think I spotted 'em.

My friends...

- to the downfall of Koopa.

- The sooner, the better!

- There she is.

- Where?

Up there.

Leave this to me.

No woman can resist

the charm of a Mario.

Hey! The name's Mario!

I'm your main man. Your "ram- a- dame,"

your can of"spaim."

You all right? You okay?

Maybe she's a little shy.

Excuse me.

Will you hit me again?

I've never seen such fluidity.

The way your knuckles crunch...

as you smack them into my face.

Huh?

Dance with me.

I'll hit you all you like.

- All right.

- That's it, Mario. Go, Mario.

# Do do do do do do #

# I would stop the world

for you, babe #

- # Stop #

- # I would stop the things I do #

# If I knew you loved me too #

# I would change

my whole world over#

- # Stop #

- # I would fade my history #

# If I could see

your future with me now #

# White lies should

open the dark room baby #

# Blue skies don't last forever#

# Sunshine's so

hard to believe in baby #

# I would stop

the world for you #

# If I knew you loved me too #

- # Stop #

- # Sure love you baby ##

You did it!

What are we gonna do?

- Here it is. Buttonhook, scramble and right fake, okay?

- Yeah.

Get them.

Seven, 24, hut!

# I walked the dinosaur#

# Open the door

# Everybody walk the dinosaur#

# Open the door,

get on the floor#

# Everybody walk the dinosaur#

- # Open the door get on the floor#

- Liberate! It's not too late!

- She's got the rock!

- We'll get it later!

- # Everybody walk the dinosaur#

- Mmm.

# Goom- goom

lock- a lock- a lock- a goom #

# Goom- goom lock- a lock- a

goom- goom #

# I met you in a cave

you were paintin'the walls #

- How we gonna get outta here?

- Use the stompers.

- Here?

- Put in a cartridge. Click your heels together.

These?

Over here, pudgy buns.

- There's no time for that now! Come on!

- Thanks.

Look, look! Look, another one!

Wait, wait, Mario, I think

it wants me to take it.

Stop fiddlin' with the fungus

and let's get outta here.

- There they are!

- Get 'em!

- Cops! Daisy!

- Goombas! The rock!

The tower!

- A sludge- gulper! Jump!

- Okay!

What a way to go

to Koopa's tower.

- You wanna wait for a bus?

- How we gonna get in there?

I got two words for you:

"Im," "possible."

Nothing's impossible, Mario.

Improbable, unlikely,

but never impossible.

I hope you're right.

My, my.

You have let yourself go!

You see?

I'm not such a bad guy.

You always wanted

to be everywhere.

Well, now you are.

I wanna tell you something.

You can go ahead and choke this

little mushroom kingdom all you want.

'Cause I'm outta here!

I'm out into the bigger world.

I got a couple of plumbers bringin' me

the rest of the meteorite.

Soon to be dead plumbers.

And by the way...

you really oughta try to pull yourself

back together again.

Slime bucket.

Whoa. Whoa!

Oh, my God.

Daisy's in there

somewhere. I know it.

But where do we start?

Python Pizza here. May I help you?

- King Koopa here.

- Ah, yes, sir.

- I'd like the Koopa Special.

- Pterodactyl tail on that?

Yes. Dino, lizard, hold the mammal,

no worms... and, uh, spicy.

Walk in.

Look at this.

It's a plumber's nightmare.

These pipes haven't

been serviced for years.

Must've been a nonunion job.

Luigi, lock off all these valves.

- What?

- It's the heating system.

Ow! Ow! Ouch!

Treat your tools like a friend:

Keep 'em by ya...

never let 'em down

and they're always at your side.

Hey, Mario, how come it is

that for every situation...

ya always got a saying

about tools, huh?

- I got 'em from Papa.

- He got 'em from Grandpapa.

We'll freeze 'em.

Keep 'em busy while we make our way up.

How can we do that?
