Mama Luigi

(Open to scene of Dinosaur Island and dissolve to scene of Vanilla Dome and zoom in.)

Yoshi: Aww, do I have to go to bed so soon?

(Luigi carries Yoshi to his bed and puts him in.)

Luigi: Well like they say in Brooklyn, early to bed early to get the worm, or is it the bagel?

(Yoshi licks his lips.)

Yoshi: Mmm, worms good, tell Yoshi bedtime story now, tell Yoshi about the time Luigi find Yoshi, and Yoshi rescue princess.

Luigi: Okay okay, well it all started when Mario, the princess, and I came to Dinosaur Island for our vacation.

(Dissolve to scene of Mario and co. entering a deserted Dome City.)

Luigi (narrating): We banished King Koopa from the Mushroom Kingdom, but he somehow managed to make it to Dinosaur Island, and when we got there the place was deserted. Koopa football players nabbed the princess, and Mario was attacked by a Magnum Bill, and I found myself face to face with a Fire Sumo.

(While Luigi is narrating, Chargin' Chucks run out of a hut and grab the princess, a Banzai Bill chases Mario, and a Fire Sumo opens up a hole in the ground and Luigi falls in.)

Luigi: AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!

Luigi (narrating): I fell for hours.

(Dissolve to scene of story Luigi still falling.)

Yoshi: Oooh, hours long time.

Luigi (narrating): Well it seemed like hours. I would've been a gonner if it weren't for a magic balloon.

(Luigi lands on a P balloon and temporarily inflates. Then he pops and continues falling.)

Luigi (narrating): There was nothing below me but a lava waterfall. Luckily I landed on a skull raft.

Yoshi: Oh, skulls mean bad medicine.

Luigi (narrating): But these skulls were GOOD medicine for me. But unfortunately that all came to an end when it reached a lava waterfall.

(Luigi falls off the waterfall and lands on a small island.)

Luigi (narrating): I lucked out and landed on a small island.

Yoshi: Luigi bash blocks now.

Luigi: How do you know?

(Luigi starts hitting blocks and catching coins. A Yoshi egg appears.)

Yoshi: Luigi find Yoshi egg.

(Story Luigi catches the egg and the egg hatches in his hands and a baby Yoshi appears.)

Baby Yoshi: Mama.

Luigi: Huh?

(Change back to scene of Yoshi's bed.)

Yoshi: Yoshi think Luigi mama AH HA HA HA HA HA!

Luigi: Yeah well I didn't think it was so funny.

(Dissolve back to story. Story Luigi is carrying baby Yoshi, who starts crying.)

Baby Yoshi: Waaaaaaaah!

Luigi: Aw what's the matter baby, ya hungry?

Baby Yoshi: Ah ah ah ah mama Luigi.

(Baby Yoshi stops and they are confronted by two mean dinosaurs.)

Luigi: Are you this baby's parents? Well here ya go, fed and burped.

Baby Yoshi: Mama Luigi, Mama Luigi!

Purple Dinosaur: Mmmm, Yoshi sir good meal, smells good.

(Luigi picks up Baby Yoshi and runs before the dinosaurs bite at them.)

Luigi: Get back you devious dinos, you're dealing with a licensed plumber here.

Purple Dinosaur: Ha ha ha, we plumbers too.

(The dinosaurs lunge at the pair. Luigi hops over a Blargg and into a pipe which goes into a lake.)

Baby Yoshi: Aww!

Luigi: Don't worry Yoshi sir, I'll get us to the surface.

(They swim past a Rip Van Fish, which begins chasing them into a tunnel, and after a while it falls asleep. Then then they evade Porcu-Puffer-like fish, then they exit the tunnel.)

Luigi: See Yoshi sir, there's nothing in the water to be scared about. Except that!

(Luigi gets chased to the surface by a Torpedo Ted, which begins to gain on them.)

Luigi: I don't think we're gonna make it!

(Story Luigi is then lifted into the air by dolphins.)

Luigi: Dolphins.

(With the help of the dolphins story Luigi and baby Yoshi reach dry land.)

Luigi: Thanks for the lift!

(The dolphins swim away.)

Luigi: Okay Yoshi, you stay here while I dry off my hat.

(While story Luigi wrings off his hat, baby Yoshi's curiosity of the big world around him drives him away.)

Luigi: *gasp* Yoshi!

(Luigi finds Baby Yoshi in the Forest of Illusion.)

Luigi: No no no Yoshi poo, don't run off like that, you'll get lost.

(They're then confronted by five caterpillars.)

Luigi: Mario, wherever you are, HELP ME!

Yoshi: Wow, Yoshi love this part.

(Change back to scene of Yoshi's bed.)

Luigi: Hey, who's telling the story?

(Dissolve back to scene of Forest of Illusion.)

Luigi (narrating): Anyway, so there we were, trapped by five caterpillars

Baby Yoshi: Oh, Yoshi hungry.

Luigi: This isn't the time to be thinking about food, Yoshi.

Baby Yoshi: Oh, Yoshi eat now!

(Baby Yoshi hops out of Luigi's arms and starts eating the caterpillars, one by one.)

Luigi: Wow, this little dino makes Mario look like he's on a diet.

(Baby Yoshi finishes his last meal when Mario appears.)

Mario: Hey Luigi, I heard you call for help. Is this little dinosaur the cause of all your trouble? I'll take care of him for you. Begone you little reptile.

(Baby Yoshi eats Mario.)

Mario (in Baby Yoshi's stomach): Hey, let me outta here!

Luigi: Hey, that's my brother, Yoshi!

(Baby Yoshi spits Mario out.)

Baby Yoshi: Mama Luigi!

Mario: Mama? Mama Luigi AH HA HA HA HA HA!

Luigi: Hey, quit it!

Mario: Luigi, King Koopa has the princess locked up in his Neon Castle. We gotta get there to save her.

(Dissolve to scene of the Mario Brothers and baby Yoshi entering Neon Castle, which is dark.)

Mario: Wow, it's dark in here.

(Luigi eyes a high up block.)

Luigi: Hey Mario, I think I found the light switch!

(Luigi jumps up but can't reach it.)

Luigi: Hey Mario, give me a boost!

Mario: OKAY! Yoshi, stay here.

(Luigi jumps again and Mario flings him higher into the air so he can turn on the light.)

Mario: There. Where's Yoshi?!

(They run off and the song Looking For You begins.) [Lyrics added by Hip.]

First you're here And then you're not You never seem to stay in one spot I'm looking (looking) Looking for you I try to keep up as best I can I wanna be there if you need a hand I'm looking (looking) Looking for you I'm just one step behind Oh why are you So hard to find? I've looked high And I've looked low You know that everywhere I go I'm looking (looking) Looking for you Looking (looking) Looking for you Looking (looking) Looking for you

(During the song they see Baby Yoshi next to a Bowser statue, which shoots fireballs at them. Baby Yoshi licks them up, the statue moves, and baby Yoshi goes into the room behind it. The Marios go into that room to see baby Yoshi hopping through a hall with flattening objects in it. Luigi saves Baby Yoshi but gets flattened. Mario rolls up the flattened Luigi. Baby Yoshi enters the next room and before they enter, Mario sees a P Balloon and reflates Luigi with it. Then Baby Yoshi hops through a fence and the Marios enter to see baby Yoshi near a Chargin' Chuck. They climb over the fence and jump on the Chargin' Chuck before it grabs baby Yoshi, just to see it split into three more Chargin' Chucks and have them clobber him and Luigi. Baby Yoshi licks up and spits out the Chargin' Chucks and enters the next room. The song ends and the Marios get up and follow baby Yoshi into the room, Bowser's throne room. Baby Yoshi hides underneath the throne and the Marios enter. They don't see baby Yoshi and enter the next room. Once they leave baby Yoshi starts gorging himself at the decorations. King Koopa approaches the Marios with five Mechakoopas and chases them back into the throne room. The Marios see baby Yoshi rubbing his tummy and sitting in the spot where the throne used to be. Then King Koopa enters the throne room, sees everything's gone, and does a jaw drop, then picks it up.)

King Koopa: My throne! My throne room! You'll pay for this plumbers!

(The Mechakoopas approach the Mario Brothers.)

Mario: Be careful Luigi, these dragon robots can eat you alive.

Baby Yoshi: Aww, robots no eat Luigi. Yoshi eat robots.

(One by one the Mechakoopas disappear into naby Yoshi's mouth.)

King Koopa: That dino twerp is eating me out of house and home!

Mario: Hey Luigi, I didn't know you were bringing a secret weapon.

Luigi: That's Mama Luigi to you.

Mario: All right Koopa, give us the princess, or Yoshi here will eat your castle piece by piece until we find her!

King Koopa: I can build another castle, but you can't build another princess. Without this key you'll never find her.

(Baby Yoshi swipes the key from Bowser's hand with his tongue.)

King Koopa: I'll be back, and when I am that little dino brat is going on a crash diet.

(King Koopa leaves down a pipe.)

Luigi: Yay, Yoshi you did it! Uh, you didn't swallow the key did you?

Baby Yoshi: Aww, key no taste good.

(Yoshi spits the key into a keyhole, which transports them back to Dome City.)

Luigi (narrating): And that's how we managed to rescue the princess, thanks to you, Yoshi.

(While Luigi is narrating, in the story the princess gives the Marios and baby Yoshi one kiss each, then once Luigi stops talking, dissolve to scene of Luigi overlooking Yoshi sleeping.)

Luigi: Good night Yoshi.

Yoshi: Good night. Mama Luigi.

Luigi: Huh?
