Summary

Mario and friends must collect magical cat shines to power up the Giga Bell and restore Bowser to normal size before he destroys the entire Mushroom Kingdom.

Insights
  • Collaborative problem-solving is essential when facing large-scale crises—the heroes had to work together across multiple locations to activate lighthouses simultaneously
  • Understanding root causes matters: the team discovered Bowser's weakness to light and used that knowledge strategically rather than relying on brute force alone
  • Accountability and redemption are possible even after causing significant damage—Bowser Jr. takes responsibility and helps fix his father's rampage
  • Resource constraints require creative solutions—the team used an old, unreliable plane and a water dinosaur to reach their destination when conventional routes were blocked
Trends
Animated storytelling continues to emphasize ensemble casts and collaborative narratives over single-hero arcsEnvironmental hazards (the black goo) serve as both obstacles and clues to solving larger problemsPower-up mechanics in entertainment increasingly tie to character transformation and scale rather than simple stat boostsRedemption arcs for traditionally antagonistic characters are becoming more prominent in family-oriented content

In the fiery inferno of Bowser's domain. He's asleep, Kamik. Excellent, Master Junior. This is gonna be the greatest prank of all time. I'll just take my handy dandy paintbrush and... Hey, Dad. Nice mustache. Let me try, Master Junior. Here. Lord Bowser, since when did you get glasses? When did you dye your hair? Good one, Master Junior. Quick, hand me the paint bucket. Once I pour it, we run. Of course, your mischievousness. What? Run! Junior! I'm covered in paint! Oh, my head! What's happening to me? Uh, Kamek, you got the normal paint bucket, not the magic paint bucket, right? Uh, I think so. Suddenly, the paint reacts to Bowser's anger, turning him pitch black as he grows to an enormous size. I'll get you for this! Uh, Kamek, he's growing. Oh dear, I knew this was a bad idea. Well, you could have stopped me. Lord Bowser, be careful! Out of my way! Ooh! Kamek, are you okay? Ooh, my head. Dad, why'd you do that? Be quiet, Junior. I hate you. What? Dad? You don't mean that. Walter breaks through the castle wall and heads for the Mushroom Kingdom. Nick, why is he acting like this? That paint must be affecting his mind. What are we going to do? He's out of control. We have to stop him, or else he might destroy the whole world. Brainstorm Productions presents The Mario Bros. Show! Starring... Mario! And... Luigi! Today's episode, Bowser's Fury! With guest stars... Peach! Toad! And... Bowser! And with special guest stars... Bowser! Junior! Kamek, Plessy, and Dr. Strudelstein! All characters owned by Nintendo. All voices by Paul Robinson, Teddy Armstrong, and Leanne Merseman. In waters between the Mushroom Kingdom and Bowser's Domain. Commander, sir! What is it, Jefferson? We are detecting something in the water, sir. Another submarine? No, sir. Something else. Something bigger. What? It appears to be heading for Blooper Bay. Heads up, it's moving towards us. Fire the torpedoes! Yes, sir. Firing in three, two, one. I think we got it. No, we didn't! Why didn't the torpedoes work? It's heading back to us. Everybody, hang on! Brace for impact. Bowser comes out of the water and faces the toadstool battleship. Get out of my way! Uh-oh. Take this! Fury Bowser charges up his fire breath. That doesn't look good. Take that! With the ship destroyed, Fury Bowser steps onto Blooper Bay. Everybody run! Timmy, stay close to me. Run for your life! Fury Bowser walks through Blooper Bay, destroying everything in sight. This is the Mushroom Kingdom Army. Stand down or we will use lethal force. Fire the missiles. Fury spikes. Fury Bowser summons huge spikes out of the sky and rains them down on the helicopters. We've been hit. We're going down. What's going on? Is that Bowser? He's huge. And he's headed for Mushroom City. Meanwhile, at the Mario Bros. household... Oh boy, this movie is so good. I know! The special effects are amazing. I've never seen anything like it. Well, I would expect nothing less in a M.I.I. movie. Right. Mario! Luigi! Huh? Toad! Do you want to watch this movie with us? No! Come on, the princess needs you to. What happened? You don't know? It's all over the news. Well, we've been watching this movie. It's three and a half hours long. What? Movie these days, I tell ya. I know. Toad, what happened? Oh, right. Bowser is huge and has gone on a rampage throughout the Mushroom Kingdom. What? Uh-oh. He's nearly destroyed all of Mushroom City. Oh, no. Bowser, that fiend? We've beaten a big Bowser before. Not like this, you haven't. Well, what are we waiting for? Let's get over there. There goes my peaceful day. To Mushroom City! Mario, Luigi, and Toad make it to Mushroom City, a once beautiful city, now reduced to rubble and ash. Wow, this place is destroyed! Bowser did all of this? He was really mad, and way scarier. His hair was like fire, and his eyes glowed. I don't like the sound of that. Where's Peach? She's over there. Peach! What are you going to do, Princess? Are we safe? I can't make a comment at this time. Thank you, Press. Okay, thank you, Press. Thank you. Let's move it along. Mario, thank goodness you're here. Oh, and you brought Luigi, too. Cool. Peach, what happened here? It's horrible, Mario. Bowser came through here and destroyed the city. We can see that. A toad said he was big, and his hair was on fire, and his eyes glowed. That's what people say. Where is he now? Right now he's headed towards Lake Lapcat. Lake Lapcat? Yes. Sadly, we can't get to him. The pipe to get over there is broken. Ew. What's this black goop? That's left behind from Bowser. Whatever it is, it's really gross. It's also surrounding the lake, so we can't get there by foot. Well, at least no one lives there. Right. Actually, Mario, Dr. Albert Strudelstein lives there. Gesundheit. Wait, who? The creator of the cat suit. Uh-oh. Oh, I remember him. We need to get over there before he gets hurt. Do we have to? This Bowser sounds really scary. Oh, come on. It's probably not that bad. It's still Bowser, Goofball the villain. If you're going to Lake Lapcat, then I'm coming with. Peach, it's dangerous. But Mario, I thought it wasn't that bad. And that it was still just Bowser, Goofball the villain. Oh, fine. You can come. Yes! Come on, Toad, we're going to Lake Lapcat. Why do I have to go? We might need you. Heavy emphasis on might. How are we going to get over there if the lake is surrounded by this black goop? Just then, the Koopa Cruiser flies over the city. Hey, is that Bowser's airship? It is! And isn't that Bowser's kid up there? Dad, come back! It looks like he's chasing after Bowser. What's going on? Mario! Seeing that airship gave me an idea. We could fly into Lake Lambcat. Good idea, Peach. Do you have an airship too? Koopa shells! It's in for repairs right now. Oh, come on. Hey, my uncle has a plane. Great! Ask if we can use it. I don't like the sound of this. Oh, I'm sure it'll be fine. So the four heroes board the plane owned by Toad's uncle, Scooter. I take back what I said. Ain't she a beaut? Uh, yes! Thank you for taking us! Always nothing. I haven't been in this plane in a long time. Mario, this is the rickety-est plane I've ever been in. I know! It feels like it's about to fall apart. Shh! Quiet, guys! Just be thankful he's taking us. I'll try, but it'll be hard. He smells like blue cheese. Your favorite snack still blue cheese and crackers, Uncle Scooter? You know it. That's why. Is everyone buckled up? Yep! Uh-huh! Roger! Wait, where's mine? Alright, it's time for takeoff! Wait! Oh, come on, you're good for nothing exhaust pipe! You a big trip Sometimes you gotta whip it into submission Oh my Come on you dumb bucket of boats There we go I'm Mario. Do you know where my seatbelt is? Uh, is it here? It should be. It must be missing. And we have liftoff! Wait! The plane zips off into the sky at an incredible speed. How many of you? That's what I'm talking about! Uncle Scooter, do a barrel roll! No! Alright, here we go. Luigi, grab onto me! I'm trying! Oof! That was fun! The plane ride is smoother from that point on, until the group reaches Lake Lapcat. Uh-oh. Those storm clouds were pretty bad. I can't go any further. What are we going to do? Well, I got a parachute here. A parachute? A. As in one. It might have a hole, I can't remember. Anywho, you all got a jumper. What?! Give me that parachute! Luigi! So long! Oh no, you don't, Buster! Peach! Thanks for the ride, Unc! No problem, Toadie. Whee! Luigi opens his parachute and descends slowly. Ha, nice. Luigi! Huh? Peach grabs onto Luigi. Hey! Peach! Mario also grabs onto Luigi. Wee! And so does Toad. Hey, you guys are pulling me down! Stop it! At that exact moment, lightning strikes the parachute. Ah! Mayday! Mayday! We're going down! Woo! And with that, the four heroes plummet down to Lake Lapcat, the domain of Fury Bowser. Oh, my head. Where are we? That was kind of fun. Is everybody okay? I think I'll recover. I'm okay. Good. Wait, where's Peach? Uh-oh, I don't see her. No, I failed as a bodyguard. Toad, you always fail as a bodyguard. Oh, man. Peach, where are you? Mario! Peach? Mario, up here, in the tree. Mamma mia. I'll get you down, princess. Good luck, Toad. She's at the top of the tree. So? You don't have legs. So? Peach, jump down. I'll catch you. Are you sure? We got you, princess. Okay. Here it goes. I got you, princess. I'm working out. Come on. Thanks, Luigi. No problem. Wow, we were really off. I was closer, though. So, is this Lake Labcat? Looks like it. Does someone have an umbrella? It's raining cats and dogs out here. And that black goo is everywhere, too. Hey, look at that. Isn't that Bowser's airship we saw a bit ago? It is. Looks like it crashed. Did Bowser attack it? Speaking of Bowser, where is he? Maybe he's behind that mountain? Lightning strikes, revealing a silhouette off in the distance. I don't think he's behind that mountain. He is that mountain! Mario! He's huge! You're the last person I wanted to see today. Take this! Run! Bowser rains down his fury spikes at the four heroes. Look out! We gotta get out of here! We can't! We're stuck on this small island. And the entire lake is covered in that goo! Fury fire! Bowser spits out fireballs into the sky. Don't get hit by those. Ah, that was a close one. Look, I think that's a lighthouse up ahead. You're not getting away that easily. Bowser charges up his fire breath. Take cover behind that wall. I want my mommy. Me too. Mario, Luigi, Peach and Toad take cover behind the wall, but eerie Bowser's fire breath destroys it. Oh no! Hey Mario, what's that? Huh? That shiny thing with the cat face. I don't know! Maybe it's a power-up or something. Quick! Get it! O-O-Okay! The shiny object shoots a beam of light into the lighthouse, melting off the goo. Hey! It turned on the lighthouse! Oh! So bright! Grrr! I'm out of here! Bowser turns away, goes into a shell, and disappears into the ocean. That did the trick! Hey! The storm is clearing up! Sure enough, the clouds go away and so does the goo covering the ocean. It looks like the goo is sensitive to light from the lighthouse. Yeah, and Bowser was too. Maybe that's how we beat him. We haven't beaten him yet. He just went into hiding. Oh man, not good, not good. Hey, that's Bowser Jr. down there. And Kamek too. Let's see if they can tell us what's going on. Right? Kamek, what are we going to do? I don't know, Master Jr. He seems unstoppable. Hey! Mario! What's going on? Dad is out of control. I don't know what happened. Master Junior. No, fine, it was me. I pulled a prank on him by painting him, and now he's like this. Ugh, of course it was you. I tried to help him, but he's too big and mad. I can't change Dad back by myself. By yourself? I'd never ask you for help. Never, ever. But I'll do anything to save my papa. So, please, help me. Mario. What did you say? Just help me, please. I can't do it alone. Not even Kamek can do anything? I've tried, but no. His grumpiness is unaffected by my magic. Hmm. Okay, we'll help. Yes, we need to end this chaos. Princess, it is good to see you. Aw, likewise. Okay, let's all team up and take down my dad. All right. But how are we going to do that? Let's find Dr. Strudelstein. Maybe he knows what to do. Good idea, Peach. Thankfully, his lab isn't far from here. Hey, there's something in the water. Hey, guys. Plessy, can you take us to Dr. Strudelstein's lab? Of course, but we've got to hurry. Okay, let's go. I've never been on a water dinosaur before. Plessy swims the group over to Dr. Strudelstein's lab. When they get there, they find the little shack all boarded up. It looks deserted. Hello, Dr. Strudelsnein. I brought some friends. It's a me, Mario. And Princess Peach. Mario, Peach, it really is you. Doctor, can we come in? Yes, yes, quickly, before he wakes up again. Wakes up again? Wait a second. Aren't you Bowser's son, and you his evil wizard? Why should I let you in? Doctor, he's on our side. Really? Yes, Junior just wants to turn his dad back to normal. Okay, fine, come in. How you doing, Doctor? Not great, Mario. Ever since Bowser arrived, things have been, well, dangerous. What were you saying about Bowser waking up? Bowser will wreak havoc for a little while, but then he goes away into his shell and sits there, until he comes out again to cause more destruction. Every time he does, he leaves behind this black goo. Do you have any ideas on how to stop him, Doctor? Unfortunately, no. Rats. Oh, a doctor! We ran into Bowser when we got here, and we got the shiny thing that turned on the lighthouse, and Bowser got stabbed by the light, and then he hit in his shell. What? A shiny thing? Yeah, it has a cat face on it. Oh, was it a cat shine? Cat shine? I've studied about them here on the islands. Let me look. Here we are. According to the hieroglyphs, they can emit large amounts of light. which are used to power the lighthouses. Maybe Bowser is weak to light. That is a good idea. The hieroglyphs also speak about the Giga Bell. Is that that big statue we saw on the way over here? Hmm, yes. Mario, I believe we must go to the Giga Bell and research further. All right! Dr. Strudelstein, the Mario Bros, Peach, Toad, and Plessy make their way over to the Giga Bell. There's Bowser's shell. It's spinning. Very slowly. And he's getting bigger. Oh no, bigger than before? We have to stop him soon. Otherwise he'll keep growing. Here we are. Thanks for the ride, Plessy. No problem. Is that the Giga Bell? It's all covered in that goo. Gross Here there an inscription What does it say It says when the beast rises the Geekabell will ring The beast My dad I mean my dad is a beast Is it some sort of prophecy? Something like that? This must be the key to defeating Bowser. But it's not working right now. Maybe we gotta get this sploochy goop off first. Some more cat shines might do the trick. Ah, it says right here. Bring me five cat shines and I shall awaken. Well, we have one already. That means we need four more. How will we find these cat shines? They must be hidden across the islands. Let's all split up and look for them. Mario, you go to Scamper Shores. Got it! Luigi, you head for Fort Flattrap. Okay. Toad, you go look at Slipskate Slope. Easy. And Princess, would you go to Crisp Climb Castle? Of course. I'll go with Mario and help him out. Um, I don't think I need... Let's do this! Oh boy. I will stay behind in my lab and try to come up with a plan. I will join you. Good, since Igor's on vacation, I could use your help. All right, everyone. Let's get those shines. Yeah! The group disperses across the lake to look for the cat shines. Let's catch up with Mario and Bowser Jr. as they search Scamper Shores. You know, this place can be pretty cheery when your dad isn't trying to kill us. And I bet he almost did. Ha! He's the coolest. Sure, whatever you say. Hey, look out for those cat cock doors. They'll try to get you by slamming their beaks down into the ground. Yep, yep, yep. It looks like there are some rotating chain-like fences I'll need to climb onto to progress. Good thing Dr. Strudelstein gave me a super bell. Meow. Want one, Junior? No way. I ate my Koopa Clown Car, which is way better than any sissy power-up. Suit yourself. Mario jumps from platform to platform, clinging onto the chain-link fences as they rotate around. Goomba, Goomba. Hey, Mario. Uh-oh, some cat Goombas. It's over for you. I don't think so. Ow! Oof. Stop that. Take this. Nice hit, Junior. I didn't know that paintbrush could be used as a weapon. Oh, it's dangerous, all right. It's actually what caused my dad to go crazy. Oh, well, maybe don't use it that often. Mario, I see a cat shine. You're right, but we need to run by a bunch of cat conch doors on that really skinny plank. Okay, ready? Go! Run! Ay-yup, ay-yup, ay-yup, ay-yup, ay-yup, ay-yup. Ooh, that was close. I almost fell off. There it is, a cat shine! The cat shine shoots a beam of light into the lighthouse. And thus, the lighthouse is restored. We did it! Oh, yeah! At that moment, Toad is at the top of Slip Skate Slope trying to find a cat shine. You gotta be kidding me. I have to ride in that big skating shoe all the way down? Well, here goes nothing. Toad gets in the shoe and slides down the long slope. Whoa! Okay. This isn't that bad. Yeah, I could get used to this. Maybe I should pick it up as a hobby. The princess is saying I always need one of those. Well, a healthy one. Then Toad comes upon a boost pad and a ramp. Wait, what? He goes flying into the air. Toad runs into some enemies. Sorry! Then he enters a rotating tunnel with spikes on the walls. Don't get hit, don't get hit! Toad exits the tunnel safely. Until he runs into more boost pads and another ramp. No! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH This time, Toad lands on top of a rotating tunnel. OH! Don't fall off, don't fall off! Uh oh. I'm gonna run into those mice. Man, that was a sucker. You did it. This was the best day of my life. Oh. Is that a shear? Huh? OH NO! Sorry little guys. Toad then comes upon a bunch of boost pads and the biggest ramp he's seen yet. Oh come on. NO! Toad goes flying hundreds of feet into the air. Uh, Toad? Is he coming back down? Oh, there he is! Toad hits a slope and skates right into a cat shine. Yay! I think I'm gonna barf. The cat shine shoots out the beam of light, restoring the lighthouse. I'm never going skating again. Let's check in on Luigi as he searches Fort Flattrap for a cat shine. Here we are. Thanks for the ride, Plessy. No problem, Luigi. Just let me know if you need me. I'll be right over here. Got it. So let's see. What do we have here? There are some platforms. Hey, the platforms switch when I jump. I'll have to be careful. Luigi jumps up the main area where there are a bunch of cat bullies. Bullies, huh? They're basically indestructible, but you can beat them if you can push them into lava. Hey! There's lava under this area, and there are more of those switching platforms. If I time it just right, I could make them fall into the lava. Sometimes I surprise myself with how big my brain is. Huh? It's a name! Yeah, come here, you big trash can! How dare you! And your mother is ugly, too! That's it! You're going down! Wait for it. I'm gonna get you. Wait for it. I bet you're scared. Now. No. Got him. Now I've just got to get these other guys. Hey, guys. He just got Jerry. No, not Jerry. Let's rush him. That's the perfect idea. Yeah. Charge. Man, these guys are dumb. No. No. Oh, yeah. Piece of cake. With all the bullies defeated, the cat shine appears. Wow, that was easy. Right as Luigi is about to grab the cat shine, a floating blob of the dark goo steals it. Huh? Hey, give that back. The blob takes shape and forms itself into a goo version of... Me? I'm a Luigi, number one. How dare you take my form, you gooey-gee? Bye-bye. The gooey Luigi runs away with the cat shined. Hey, get back here. You can't catch me. Na-na-na-na-boo-boo. Oh, he's too fast. I'll never be able to catch up. Oh, I know. I have this boomerang flower in my pocket. I'll use it. Oh, yeah. Take this, you jelly belly. Luigi throws his boomerang at the shadow Luigi. Ow. Hey, stop. Yes, I got him. There's the cat shine. With that, the lighthouse is restored. I did it! Nice job, Luigi. Thanks, Classy. Now, we need to get back to the lab. Come on. We now join Princess Peach as she scales Crisp Climb Castle. This tower is huge! If there's a cat shine, it must be at the top. Princess Peach comes upon a question box. Oh! and finds a propeller box inside. Nice! Just what I needed. This is my ticket to the top. I'll just put this on. There we go. It's kind of hard to see in here. Now, how does this work? I think I have to jump. Princess Peach shoots up into the air. Okay, now onto the platform. She jumps between moving platforms along the wall until she gets to the top of that tower. Ah! Alright, I made it! Oh my! There's a huge gap between this tower and the next. Do I have to jump that? The things I do for my kingdom. Here goes nothing. Jump! Ah! I hate heights. There's the platform. Almost there. Made it! Wow, what a view! I can see all of the islands from here. And Bowser's shell. Dr. Struhstein is right. He is getting bigger. We have to stop him. I can't let him destroy the kingdom. Keep moving, Peach. You got this. Princess Peach jumps up to the next platform where the walkway has collapsed. I guess I have to jump this too. Peach makes it to the next platform when suddenly it starts to rain Huh What going on Eek Oh no Bowser shell is spinning really fast Does that mean Fury Bowser's shell spins around and shoots into the sky. No! He's awake! And he's huge! Why hello there, Princess Peach. I gotta get to the top. Where do you think you're going? To stop you! I don't think so. Fury spikes! Fury Bowser's Fury spikes shoots into the side of the wall where Princess Peach is jumping. Ah! Ha ha ha ha ha! Actually... Princess Peach uses the Fury spikes pierced into the side of the wall as platforms. What? Thanks, Bowser! No! Brr! Fire breath! Uh-oh! There has to be another way! You have nowhere to run! Oh, no! One, two, one, two, one, two, one, two, one, two. Peach propels herself off of the pair of pity buds and makes it to the top of the tower. Yes! There's the cat shine! No! Fireballs! Fire rains down on the tower as Princess Peach rushes right for the cat shine. Almost there! Got it! No! Take this! The cat shine shoots its powerful beam of light and restores the lighthouse. Oh, my eyes! It burns! I'm out of here! Stunted by the light, Fury Bowser retreats once more. Yes, I did it! Okay, time to meet back up with the others. With the Cat Shines in hand, our heroes meet up at the lab to devise a plan. Did everyone find the Cat Shines? Yep, right here. I narrowly got mine. It probably wasn't as bad as me, but I got mine. Oh, brother, he has no idea. Well, the Giga Bell says that it will awaken when Bowser wakes up. So until then, let's go over the plan. Yes, me and Dr. Strudelstein. Yes, have you come up with a plan to beat his grumpiness? Well, what is it? According to the hieroglyphics on some ruins nearby, the Giga Bell is a power-up. I've studied the Giga Bell for many years. It was actually my inspiration for the Super Bell. Wow! So supposedly when we bring the cat shines to it and Bowser is awake, then it will become usable? I think so. Mario? Yes? You have the most experience fighting Bowser, so I want you to use the Giga Bell. You can count on me! What are we gonna do? Since you have come here, you've discovered that Bowser gets stunned by light, and further analysis on the black goo confirms this. When we put the black goo under a direct focus light, it shrunk. If Lord Bowser is covered in this goo, then that means the lighthouses can weaken him. Right. I will need the rest of you to turn on all of the lighthouses at the same time. Uh-huh. Got it! Uh-oh. It's time. Is everyone ready? Everyone, get to your positions. Right. On it! Gotcha. Mario, since you're fighting, I'll go to Scamber Shores. Sounds good. Suddenly, Fury Bowser rips off the top of the lab. There you are! Run! The heroes exit the lab before Fury Bowser can get any of them. Plessy, take me to Slipscape Slope. You got it. Hop on. Where are you going? Uh-oh. Swim! Fury Bowser shoots his fire breath at Plessy, but Plessy dodges. No! Good job, Plessy. Meanwhile, Mario makes it to the Giga Bell. Woo! Made it! Okay, Giga Bell, here are your shines! Mario holds up the cat's shines, and they float up and surround the Giga Bell. They're spinning! Meow, meow, meow, meow, meow. It worked! Okay, Bowser, time to end this! Mario walks up to the Giga Bell and... Oh yeah! I'm Giga Cat Mario! Okay, made it to the lighthouse. Whoa! Mario is huge! Get over here! Shell attack! Fury Bowser gets into his shell, winds up, and launches right at Giga Cat Mario. Whoa! That was a close one. Take this! Mario swipes at Bowser, but Bowser blocks it. Grrr! Oof! Take this! Oh! Shell slam! Bowser jumps high into the air, retreats into his shell, and slams down onto the lake. Whoa! Gotta jump over that shockwave! Now Bowser's exposed! Time for a ground pound! Bowser goes flying! That's what I'm talking about! I'm not done yet! Are you sure? Fury spikes! Look out! Whoa! Shell attack! Bowser winds up for his shell attack again. Uh-oh! Hey! I know! Bowser charges forward, but Mario picks up one of the Fury Spikes and swings it right at him. Ow! Home run! Fury sludge! Bowser slings Black Blue at Mario. Ew! It's all over me! Oof! I can't move! Now I gotcha! Uh-oh! Ow! The attack causes Mario to lose the Geekabelle power-up. How do you like that? Oh, Mario! No, not now! You go, Dad! I mean... Oh no, Mario! Turn on the lighthouse, quick! Oh, right! Bowser Jr. flips the switch to the lighthouse. Oh! Hey, what's the big idea? Oh, that's the signal. Go! Light up, lighthouse! My turn! Last one. No! And with that, all of the lighthouses are turned on, and Bowser starts shrinking. Oh! No! And with that, Bowser shrinks down to normal size and all of the black paint melts off. Wahoo! We did it! Dad! Dad, are you okay? Huh? What happened? Oh, my head. Yes, Dad, you're back! Huh? Mario! I'm gonna get you! I hate you! Dad, stop! Stop! I'm scared of you! Sorry about that, Mario. Whatever, I... Boo! Let's get out of here, Dad. Yeah. What is this place, anyway? Lord Bowser, it's good to see you... normal. Hey, come back. Thanks, I guess. Hey, is that the Koopa Cruiser? What happened to it? Oh, uh, it's not important right now, Dad. Junior, did you try to drive it again? You know what I said last time. Oh, you are so grounded. No Super Koopa roads for you. But, Dad... Well, I'm glad that's over with. You said it. Mario! Hey, Peach. Are you okay? Yeah, I'm okay. Hey, look. Since we defeated Bowser, all the goop surrounding the lake is gone. Thank goodness. So, I guess that means I don't need to call Uncle Scooter? No! And with that, Bowser's fury is over. Dr. Strudelstein continues to research the islands, and Igor comes back from his vacation to help. Hey, Doctor. What did I miss? Oh, not much, Igor. Not much at all. Princess Peach makes Bowser send over the necessary funds to rebuild Mushroom City and any other damages he made, and the Mario Bros go home to finish their movie. You know what? After all that's happened, I think a movie about giant monsters is the last thing I want to watch. Agreed. How about we watch a Donkey Kong movie? Good idea, Luigi! Okay, I'll pop in this one.
