Episode 3
Title: They must’ve
thought I was talking in Klingon…
Phil: Previously on… The Amazing Race MK:
Phil: Ten teams set off from the insides of Bowser’s Body and boarded a magnificent Airship. They were faced with hardships as they completed their tasks high in the sky. Teams who chose to carry cannonballs soon found that they had chosen the wrong task.
Twila: We…definitely chose the wrong task…
Phil: As they approached the Roadblock, they discovered that they would get a once in a lifetime opportunity to fly the grand ship.
Chanterelle: Ahhh! This is nice!
Toadofsky: This is a real pleasant trip!
Phil: When faced with this obstacle, some teams crumbled under the pressure.
Rocky: I’m sorry, but you’ll have to try again.
Phil: And arguments sparked.
Birdo: I thought it was safe, but apparently it wasn’t!
Mouser: It’s common sense!
Birdo: SHUT UP!!!
Phil: In the end, Brighton & Twila had fallen behind and couldn’t recover. They were eliminated. Now…nine teams remain. Who will be eliminated…next?
The opening plays with a Red “X” over Brighton & Twila.
Phil: This is the Mushroom Kingdom Airport! Built in 1992, this Airport is situated on a secluded island in the middle of the ocean, and serves as a central junction for all of the Mushroom Kingdom’s flights! It was also the second Pit Stop in a race around the MK. Teams arrived here for a mandatory rest period that allows them to eat, sleep, and mingle with the other teams. The nine teams waiting here have no idea what’s in store for them. They have to figure out for themselves how to get to the next yellow and red route marker by solving clues they will find in sealed envelopes. Hammer Bro. & Boomerang Bro., who arrived first…will depart…at 8:43 PM.
*Riiiiiiiip*
Hammer: Fly to the Beanbean Kingdom! Wow!
Phil: Teams must now fly more than 1,500 miles to the neighboring Beanbean Kingdom. When they land, they will hire a taxi and make their way to Beanbean Castle, where they will receive their next clue from Queen Bean.
Hammer: All right, let’s get started then!
***Hammer: With two first place finishes under our shells, we feel we might have a target on our backs…
***Boomerang: But, you know, it’s nothing too big. We’re the strongest ones here and we can succeed. At anything! Anything!
Hammer: I suppose we should start asking about flights.
Boomerang: We should check Beanbean Air…
…
Hammer: Hi, do you have a flight to Beanbean Airport today?
Goombob: Yes, we have one departing at 9:30.
Hammer: And is that your quickest flight?
Goombob: It’s the quickest flight to the Beanbean Kingdom.
Hammer: Okay, good.
Boomerang: If we were to miss it…what’s the next option?
Goombob: We have a flight at 11:00 to the Beanbean Kingdom. No other airline flies directly there.
Hammer: Cool.
Boomerang: Some of the teams are going to catch up, but from the looks of it, not many will.
*Tickets print*
Hammer: Thank you!
*Riiiiiiiiiiiip*

Goombob: Our 9:30 flight is about to leave.
Raz: We need tickets!
Raini: Please, sir, please! We HAVE to get on that flight!
Goombob: You might not make it.
Raz: We don’t care, we’ll run!
The plane’s engines are powering up as tickets get printed.
Raz: Oh boy, this is cutting it close.
Raini: Stop talking and run!
The other two teams are looking smugly at one another.
Raz: My little legs can’t run this fast!

Blue Boo: Let’s hurry and get a flight!
***Big Boo: Our strategy is to simply focus on the task at hand and get it done.
***Blue Boo: We’re probably not going to be too concerned with the other teams or what they’re doing.
At the Beanbean Air Desk…
Blue Boo: You have absolutely nothing until 11:00?!
Beanie: That is correct.
Big Boo: Dang! Everyone’s gonna catch up!
*Riiiiiiiiiiip*
Chanterelle/Toadofsky

Chanterelle:
Ooh! This should be fun!
Toadofsky: I’ve never been there! It sounds like a weird place.
***Chanterelle: We’re flowing with the race. We’re not trying too hard to get first place yet, because there’s too many people. We’re just letting the race take us with it.
Toadofsky: Two tickets please!
*Riiiiip*
Flurrie/Doopliss
-- Actress/Actor, 9:40 PM
Flurrie: Let’s
get going, Doop!
Doopliss: Don’t call me that. It makes me sound like an idiot!
Flurrie: Right… ”Like”…
***Flurrie: If we ever get into a jam, then it’ll be a simple task of getting some locals to help us out! I mean, when you’re as stunningly gorgeous as me, people simply BEG to help you out!
***Doopliss: She needs a reality check.
Flurrie: That’s quite a long wait, isn’t it?
*Riiiiiiiiiiiip*
Kroop/Dour
-- Mayors, 9:48 PM
Kroop: Leeeeeeeeet’s

Dour: Sure… whatever.
***Dour: I have no idea how we’re still in the race. Seriously, how is this possible?
***Kroop: It’s the power of seniors!
***Dour: More like senility!
Kroop: Where’s the Fast Forward at?
Dour: Ugh…
*Riiiip*
Bombette/Bruce

***Bombette: We’re having fun! I think that’s the most important thing on this race! It’s to have fun!
***Bruce: Yeah! We’re havin’ all sorts of fun!
Bombette: 11 PM?! We’re gonna be so far behind the others!
Bruce: Yeah. And now we’re basically tied for last place.

Kroop/Dour
-- Mayors
Dour: All right,
we’re in big trouble…
***Dour: We were just about to buy our tickets when we noticed something.
Dour: ……..No…I don’t have it.
***Dour: Someone had lost our race credit card that we’re supposed to use to buy airline tickets.
Kroop: I swear! I didn’t touch it!
***Dour: So we had to go back to our lodgings where we spent the night. I finally found the dang thing after, like, an hour of searching.
Dour: You idiot! It’s right here!
Kroop: But…
***Dour: But by the time we got back…
Beanie: I’m sorry, but there are no seats left!
***Dour: …it was too late…

While their partner waits for them here at the castle, the chosen team member must complete a relay using Beanbean taxis. First, they will pick up a special designer shirt from this place: Harhall’s Studio. Then, they must travel to the Yoshi Theater and deliver the shirt. In exchange, they will receive their next clue.
Hammer: Who’s got money to spare?
Boomerang: Ummm…

Boomerang: What are you doing, man?!
Hammer: Looking for a taxi!
Boomerang: Right there!
Hammer: Oh… Hi! To Harhall’s Studio, please!!!
Cabbie: Certainly!
Hammer: How much will that cost?
Cabbie: Uhhhh…. Should be… about 70 coins.
Hammer: How much in Mushroom Coins?
Cabbie: Mushroom Coins?! We don’t accept Mushroom Coins here! In case you haven’t noticed, we’re in the Beanbean Kingdom, mister!
Hammer: Wh…what do you mean? The taxi I took earlier accepted Mushroom Coins!
Cabbie: Well, he shouldn’t’ve!
Hammer: But…
Cabbie: Look, bud. Here in the Beanbean Kingdom, we ONLY accept Beanbean Coins, so… go get some!
Hammer: This... Oh, my gosh….
***Hammer: I got this feeling of dread… deep in my stomach. This was a HUGE mistake.
Boomerang (distant) What’s the problem?!
***Hammer: The only thing I could do was go back to my partner so we could figure out what to do…
Hammer: He says he won’t take Mushroom Coins!
Boomerang: What?! Why not?!
Hammer: You can’t use Mushroom Coins here!
Boomerang: But that other taxi…
Hammer: He was just being nice, I guess…He wasn’t supposed to.
Both: …
Boomerang: What do we do?
Hammer: We have to get back to the airport! We have to change our money!
Boomerang: Couldn’t we go to a bank or ask someone?
Hammer: The cabbie told me that banks don’t exchange money. The only places are the airport and Stardust Fields, which is too far away.
Boomerang: Well, I have to wait here. You’re doing a Roadblock. Just… get going! The other flight isn’t here yet, so hopefully we won’t fall too far behind!
Hammer: All right…
He returns to the taxi.
Hammer: All right, dude, can you take me to the Airport? When we get there, I’ll exchange money and pay you.
Cabbie: Eeeeeeeeeeehhhh… All right. Hop in.
Hammer: Thank you so much!

Hammer: …
***Hammer: I had actually read in some guidebook about them only taking Beanbean coins, but when that first taxi accepted Mushroom coins I kinda forgot about it.
Hammer: Uugghh…
***Hammer: I mean, I had to go to the airport, spend forever changing all of our money, and then I had to go back to Castle Town to start the Roadblock again.
Hammer: Just go quickly, please. I’m losin’ time here!

Broque
Monsieur/Broque Madame -- Separated Couple
Monsieur: D’accord!
I see zee clue! Come! (Okay!)
Both teams scramble out and get to the clue box.
Raz: Wow…
*Riiiiiiiiiiiip*
Raz: … It’s hot!
Raini: Detour!
Phil: A Detour is a choice between two tasks, each with its own pros and cons!
*High speed shots of the desert wasteland*
Phil: In this Detour, there are only two choices: Wrap or Rappel. In Wrap, teams must learn how to properly wrap the traditional turban onto a Gritty Goomba. If the Gritty Goomba is satisfied with their work, he will tell them their next clue… in Arabic. This task is much simpler. However, writing down the verbal Arabic clue will not be easy. In Rappel, teams will find this pipe leading underground, and must rappel down it. Once at the bottom, they will find their clue in written form. While this clue is also in Arabic, it is written out clearly and getting a translation will be much easier.

This is the way! C’mon, ‘sky!

Chanterelle/Toadofsky
-- Singer/Composer
Both: …
***Chanterelle: We basically did all of the work and they just copied us.
***Toadofsky: We weren’t too pleased that they just followed us to the Pit Stop.

Kroop: But we had fun! We suuuuuure did!
***Dour: The race taught me many things! It taught me how to have fun, and how to enjoy life. It’s gonna feel weird returning to gloomy ol’ Twilight Town now.
