Bowser

Princess Peach, brave as ever. [Kamek appears aside him] As you can see, I have the Super Star.

Peach

If you're going to use it, use it now. [points her harpoon at Bowser]

Bowser

No, Princess, I stole this star for us. I guess...love really makes a guy come out of his shell, heh-heh-heh. [beat; to Kamek] I told you that line wouldn't work!

Kamek

You're doing great.

Luigi

Mario.

Bowser

What is your name?

Luigi

Uh...Luigi.

Bowser

Not sure if you know who I am, but I'm about to marry a princess and rule the world.

Luigi
[smiles nervously]

Wow. Uh, yay.

Bowser

But there's one problem, Luigi. There's a human traveling with my fiancé; has a mustache, just like you. Do you know him?

Luigi

No. No!

Bowser

Ah, tough one, I see. Maybe this'll get you to talk. [pulls at a strand of Luigi's mustache with his claws]

Luigi

Do you think I know every human being with a mustache wearing an identical outfit with a hat with the letter of his first name on it? Because I don't.

Bowser
[plucks the strand off, then pulls at more of Luigi's mustache]

Do you know him?!

Luigi

Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop! I know him. Yes, I know him. Yeah, he's my brother, Mario, and he's the best guy in the world.

Bowser

Do princesses find him atttractive?!

Luigi

They do if they have good taste. [Bowser rips part of his mustache] AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!

Bowser
[tosses him to the ground]

Get him outta my sight! We'll see how tough this Mario is when he watches me kill his brother!

Luigi

Where am I?

Donkey Kong

Cool raccoon suit.

Tanooki Mario

Really?

Donkey Kong

Not at all.

Foreman Spike

Well, well, well, if it isn't Brooklyn's favorite failures, the Stupid Mario Brothers.

Luigi
[sarcastically]

Oh, great. Spike's here.

Mario

Hey, Spike.

Spike

Yeah. [mockingly] "It's-a me!" [laughs] Ooh, yeah. [seriously] Tell me, have you even gotten one call since you two have left me to start your dumb company?

Luigi

As a matter of fact, Spike, we have. [points at his phone]

Mario

Wow. Really?

Luigi

Uh, yeah. Our mom called, and she said, "Oh, boys, that's the best commercial I've ever seen!" And I said, "Thank you very much, Mother, we're very proud of it." So, boom! [slams his phone, cracking the screen]

Spike
[laughs]

Good luck running a business with this idiot. [throws a balled-up napkin at Luigi]

Mario
[catches the balled-up napkin; in tranquil fury]

Say that again about my brother, and you're gonna regret it. [throws ball back at Spike]

Spike

Oh, yeah? [grabs Mario by the overalls] Get this through your tiny brain, Mario: you're a joke, and you always will be. [throws Mario on the ground, leaves some money, and exits]

Luigi

Are you insane? He's 3 times than your size.

Mario

Luigi, c'mon. Y'know, you can't be scared all the time.

Luigi

Mmm, you'd be surprised. [hears his cracked phone begins to ring with the Nintendo GameCube boot-up music and answers] Hello, Super Mario Brothers. Uh-huh? A drip in your faucet? That's great! I mean, that's...That's great you called us because we can be there, and we can fix it right away. Okay. [hangs up] Mario, we got one! The Super Mario Brothers are in business!

Mario

Woohoo!

Kamek
[as Bowser is singing "Peaches"]

Sire.

Bowser
[growls]

What?

Kamek

A report from our intelligence; A mustachioed human has arrived in the Mushroom Kingdom. [Bowser angrily growls; stumbles in fear] The princess has been training him. They are up to something, sire.

Bowser
[calms himself]

Sit. Jam with me. [Kamek sits next to Bowser, as he starts playing the Underground Theme] This, uh, human, where did he come from?

Kamek

We aren't sure.

Bowser

Does the princess...like him?

Kamek

Sire, look in the mirror; you have nothing to worry about.

Bowser

I know that. I'm not threatened. [slams cover on Kamek's fingers]

Kamek
[screams in pain]
Bowser

FIND OUT WHO HE IS, AND WHAT THEY'RE PLANNING!! [slams his fist and storms off]

Kamek
[painfully]

I'm on it, sire. May I lift the cover?

Bowser
[walking away]

Not yet. Pain is the best teacher.

Mario
[after defeating Donkey Kong]

Had enough?

Donkey Kong
[weakly]

Not...even...close. [almost falls off the platform]

Mario
[grabs Donkey Kong by his tie]

I'll take that as a "Yes."

Toad
[Donkey Kong falls, and Mario jumps on him; the Kongs in the crowd cheer and chant "Mario!"]

Yes! That's my best friend!

Mario
[turned into a cat]

Oh, what? I'm a cat?!

Donkey Kong
[laughs]

You got the cat box! Oh, my - Ah! Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Okay. [becomes serious] Now you die. [throws a punch at Cat Mario, who dodges]

Mario
[to himself]

Huh. I'm a cat! [counter-attacks]

Mario

Hey! Leave him alone!

Luigi

Mario?

Bowser
[releases Donkey Kong]

You just don't know when to quit!

Mario

Yeah, I've been told that before.

Mario

You don't seem like you're from here.

Fire Peach

I don't know where I'm from.

Mario

Really?

Fire Peach

Yep. My earliest memory is arriving. [flashback to Baby Peach entering the Mushroom Kingdom and meeting the Toads] I was so lucky they found me. [as Peach grows up, shots of her fishing Cheep Cheeps and training with the Toads] They took me in and raised me like one of their own. And when I was ready... [cut to Peach being crowned as the Toads cheer for her] ...they made me their princess.

Mario
[Flashback ends]

Maybe you're from my world.

Fire Peach
[looking up at the sky]

There's a huge universe out there...with a lot of galaxies.

Peach

No! No, Mario!

Cranky Kong
[gasps]

No! No! [The flying Clown Cars starts snatching him and the Kongs away] Get your clown claws off of me!

Bowser
[cackling]

Goodbye, Mario.

Peach

We have to get home.

Donkey Kong
[From above Rainbow Road, Mario and Donkey Kong are falling] [throws debris]

HEY! THIS IS YOUR FAULT!

Mario

My fault?! You're the one who-

Donkey Kong

STOP TALKING! I don't want the last thing I hear before I die to be your- [he and Mario crash into the ocean. Donkey Kong is knocked unconscious, but Mario manages to bring him up to the surface by pulling him by his tie. A large creature closes its jaws beneath them. They surface]

Donkey Kong

Mario... you saved my life.

Mario

Yeah, well...I won't tell anyone. But I don't know or remember what happened.

Donkey Kong

No, thank you. Good, please don't.

Mario

Okay. [hears bubbling sound from below] Uh...did you just...feel something?

Donkey Kong
[The Maw-Ray rises up out of the water behind them. Mario and Donkey Kong scream and start swimming away]

Swim!
[The Maw-Ray closes its jaws around them]

Peach

You ready?

Peach

We are here to see the king.

Cranky Kong
[at Cranky Kong's throne]

What makes you think you're worthy of fighting alongside the greatest army in the world?

Peach
[All the guards tap their weapons to the ground]

Because we have heart. And with your strength, we can win.

Cranky Kong

Okay, fine.

Peach

That's it?

Cranky Kong

No, that's not it! The answer is No. Good bye!

Peach

If the Mushroom Kingdom falls, the Jungle Kingdom is next.

Mario

We're not leaving without your army.

Cranky Kong
[Beat]

Hahahahaha! Who is this guy? Oh, he makes me laugh. Hahahaha! All right, tough guy, you want my army so badly? Defeat my son in the Great Ring of Kong!

Peach

Give us a second. [to Mario] This is a really, really bad idea!

Mario

Well, do you have another way to save my brother?

Cranky Kong
[pops up from the floor]

Are you two done whispering? It's a little rude.

Snow King

That is but a taste of our fury. Do you yield?

Bowser
[chuckles]

I do not.

Peach
[After Mario almost completes Peach's training course]

Well, we have a long journey ahead of us, Mustache.

Mario

But I didn't make it.

Peach

You almost did. No one gets it right away.

Mario

How many tries did it take you?

Peach
[her eyes widen]

Oh, so many. I was not good at it. Worse than you. [flashes a guilty grin]

Mario
[disbelieving]

You got it right away, didn't you?

Peach

I got it right away, but I grew up here.

Mario

Okay, now you're just trying to make me feel better.

Peach

No. No. [pause] Is it working?

Mario

A little bit, yeah.

Kamek
[As Peach is about to marry Bowser]

Ah-he-he-hem. Dearly belov- [Peach punches him] Agh!

Bowser

Huh?

Dry Bone
[All Koopas gasp]

Drama.

Peach

You really thought I'd marry you?

Bowser

Kinda.

Peach
[without missing a beat]

I'd never marry a monster. [powers up with Ice Flower, becoming Ice Peach]

Bowser
[enraged]

THEN WE ARE BREAKING UP RIGHT NOW!
[They start fighting]
