Bad Rap

Submitted by Hip

(The episode opens to Mario and Co at the entrance of Rap Land, a land  full of buildings made out of giant speakers and other audio machines. In  the background, record screeching can be heard.)

Mario: (in his mind) Plumber's Log, Number 2-2-4. Rap Land isn't rappin' anymore. Koopa took their king and their money too. We're here to figure out what to do!

(Princess gasps as two Rap Land citizens, who all dress like rockers, mindlessly walk past Mario and Co on a keyboard shaped path. Both of them are holding a sack of gold coins,)

Princess: I'll bet Koopa's gonna get that gold!

Toad: But how's he makin' em do what they're told?

(Koopa's voice comes out over the speakers.)

Koopa: I'm Rappin' Koopa, do what I say! Bring me your gold coins right away!

(More people walk past Mario and Co mindlessly. Two big, fat, bald twins in sunglasses, known as the Flab Boys, one in a yellow sweater, one in orange, squeeze their way through the entrance sign and land in front of Mario and Co.)

Flab Boy 1: We're the Flab Boys, hi-dee ho! This Koopa dude, gotta go!

Flab Boy 2: He trapped King James in his castle! To get him out's gonna be a great big hassle!

Flab Boy 1: Koopa's bad rap done somethin' to town! But earphones saved us from his sound!

(Flab Boy 1 points to the earphones on his head.)

Mario: Well let's get snappin' and stop Koopa's rappin!

(Mario and Co follow the Flab Boys towards the castle itself, which is shaped like a reel-to-reel. Koopa, who sports sunglasses, a necklace with a golden K medallion, and a goatee, is inside, sitting in a DJ booth.)

Koopa: (through a microphone) Attention, Rap Land! Here's a flash! Rappin' Koopa wants all your cash!

(Koopa walks over to King James, a man who resembles James Brown, who is tied up and positioned on a giant record player.)

Koopa: *laugh* Yo, King James, you're a dweeb! I run Rap Land! I'm never gonna leave!

James: Koopa, you're tough! You ugly fang face! My Flab Boys' gonna free me from this place!

(Koopa shoves James, who spins around on the turntable. He then looks through a telescope.)

Koopa: Flab Boys, Schlab Boy, hey hey hey!

(Koopa sees Mario and Co and the Flab Boys sneaking towards the castle.)

Koopa: What? Those plumber punks are headed this way?

Flab Boy 1: Well, here's the place, it's all goin' down!

(At the entrance to the castle, people hand a Troopa their sacks of gold coins, which are tossed into a pile.)

Flab Boy 2: Gotta do somethin' quick, or he'll ruin the town!

(Flab Boy 2 runs towards the castle, but Mario grabs him.)

Mario: Princess! Luigi! Help me grab! We gotta stop this mound of flab!

(Princess, Luigi, and Toad grab onto Mario and together they manage to pull Flab Boy 2 over.)

Mario: Slow down, Flab Boy! I have a plan! And guess what, Princess? You're our man!

(Princess gasps. The next thing she knows, she is wearing sunglasses and a large cap, and walking towards the castle in a line with the other people. Toad, who's hiding in her sack, pokes his head out. Every part of his head but his eyes is covered by coins.)

Toad: Be careful, Princess! Just be cool!

Princess: We'll sneak you inside and surprise that Koopa fool!

Troopa: Give me your money, Rap Land lady!

(Princess gives the Troopa the sack. When he tosses the sack onto the pile, he hears Toad squeak.)

Troopa: Somethin's goin' on! Somethin' shady!

Koopa: (over the speakers) Attention, Troopas! That lady's a fake!

(A Troopa knocks off Princess's disguise.)

Princess: Uh oh, boys! We made a mistake!

(The Marios and the Flab Boys are hiding behind a speaker.)

Luigi: Yo, somethin' tells me our plan's not right!

Mario: We're in deep water boys! Come on, let's fight!

(One of the Troopas ties up Princess.)

Princess: Let go of me, you Troopa bum!

(The Marios and the Flab Boys run up to Princess.)

Mario: Don't worry, Princess! Here we come!

(The Flab Boys' weight shakes the ground as they step, causing the Marios to lose their balance.)

Mario: Hold on there, Flab Boys! Try to stay still!

Luigi: If the Troopas don't get us, you guys will!

Flab Boy 1: Sorry Bros! We got carried away!

(Flab Boy 2 helps the Marios up.)

Flab Boy 2: We're just in a hurry to save the day!

(The Troopas carry Princess into the castle. The Marios run after them, while the Flab Boys throw records at one of the Troopas.)

Flab Boy 1: Take that!

Flab Boy 2: Take that!

Flab Boy 1: Take that, Troopa!

Flab Boy 2: Our airplay assaults will knock you for a loopa!

(Toad jumps out of the sack and follows the Troopas.)

Mario: You slimy reptile! Let her go!

(Mario hurls his plunger at the Troopas that are holding Princess, which knocks them aside and Princess into the air.)

Princess: Alright! Nice shot, Mario!

(Princess lands in Koopa's claws.)

Koopa: I gotcha now, ya little fungus queen!

(Mario points at the sky, where several Albatoss are flying towards them and dropping Bob-ombs. Koopa runs inside the castle and shuts the doors.)

Koopa: Now let Koopa teach ya the meanin' of mean!

Luigi: These Bob-omb birds ain't droppin' cannolis! We'd better split 'em before we're holeys!

Mario: You said cannolis, I'm ready to eat! In fact, it's lunchtime! Good time to retreat!

(Cut to the DJ room. Koopa ties Princess and James together on the record player.

Princess: Koopa, your rap's rotten, just like you!

James: Good rap will win, before we're through!

(Koopa pulls a lever and starts the record player.)

Koopa: Get a grip, you two! You're so, so wrong! I think they're playin' my favorite song!

(As the turntable spins, the needle slowly lowers itself downwards.)

Koopa: I got me a Princess and the King of Rap! And they're gonna get the point of my Koopa trap!

(Koopa looks through the telescope again and a Troopa runs up to him.)

Troopa: Your royal Koopaness! Uh, uh, eh.

(Toad walks up to the doors to the DJ room and peaks through the keyhole. Koopa picks up the Troopa and throws him.)

Koopa: I know! I know! Those faucet freaks got away!

(The Troopa goes flying out the doors, and Toad sneaks in.)

Koopa: Too bad, losers! I've gotta run! There's a lot more dirty work that's gotta be done!

(Koopa leaves, with the needle just inches above Princess and James.)

Toad: One more spin'll be the end of you two!

(Toad turns off the record player and begins to untie Princess and James.)

Princess: Toad, you're the best! Thank you! Thank you!

(Cut to outside the castle. Mario and Co, James, and the Flab Boys are sitting down in a circle.)

James: Rap Land's still not safe from that Koopa thug! We gotta cut his power! Pull the royal plug!

(James points to a dam, where a huge cord is plugged into an equally huge outlet.)

Koopa: (over the speakers) I'll get you all, and those plumber punks! Then I'll break you up into little, bitty chunks!

(Cut to the dam. The group is standing on a platform, and above them is the outlet. Up close, electricity can be seen surging through the cord and through wires across Rap Land.)

Flab Boy 1: There it is, Rap Land's power!

Luigi: You won't catch me touching that thing! Sparkles like that can really sting!

Mario: I'll do it, Luigi! Give me a boost!

(Luigi gets on top of the Flab Boys, and Mario gets on top of Luigi.)

Mario: This is the only way to cut Koopa's juice!

(Mario jumps up and grabs the cord, only to get electricuted.)

James: You're gonna get hurt! Just let go!

(Mario yells, and powers up to Super Mario.)

Luigi: Look, he's becomin' Super Mario!

(Mario pulls the plug, and a huge cloud of smoke wafts out of the outlet. Mario then throws the cord away.)

Flab Boy 2: Mario, what a dude!

Flab Boy 1: You sprained Koopa's scheme!

James: Now it's time to sing a super rap! You know what I mean?

(James attempts to shake Mario's hand, but he gets electricuted. Everyone laughs. Cut to the castle. Koopa puts up his sunglasses and looks around.)

Koopa: Troopas, let's split and mount an attack!

(Koopa trips.)

Koopa: Ow, that hurt! Ooh, ow, ack!

(Cut to Mario and the others, who've set up a DJ table and two stereos.)

Mario: Koopa be here soon, we hafta be ready!

(Mario puts on a pair of sunglasses. Luigi shows him a plate of half eaten spaghetti.)

Luigi: Wait, Mario! You forgot your spaghetti!

(The song "I Feel Good" starts up. Toad puts on a military helmet and walks off. Princess and James each grab a stereo and walk off. The Flab Boys bounce off. Toad goes to hide in a hole. Princess and James put down the stereos and insert a CD into each of them. They each pull a lever and the CDs go flying and explode. Princess and James give each other five.)

Mario: Okay, guys! We're ready to rumble! Bad rap Koopa's about to tumble!

(Koopa, who has a portable DJ table strapped around his neck, approaches with his Troopas. Up in the air, Albatoss with Bob-ombs are also approaching.)

Koopa: That's it, Mario! Now you're had! It's me and you and I'm rappin' mad!

(The Albatoss drop the Bob-ombs. The song ends. Luigi starts spinning the turntables, and Mario speaks through a microphone.)

Mario: Koopa, you're crazy!

Luigi: That's it, Mario! Show 'em who's boss!

Mario: Princess! King! Stop those Albatoss!

(Princess and James launch CDs at the Albatoss. They blow up and the birds fall down. One of them lands on Koopa's head.)

Mario: Goodness gracious! Bless my soul! It's time to do the Flab Boys' bowl!

(The Flab Boys summersault down a hill, knocking all the Troopas aside. They then get up, bounce their bodies together, and give each other five. Koopa takes off his table and throws it on the ground.)

Koopa: Stupid Flab Boys, think you're so funny! Well I'm not leaving here without all that money!

Luigi: Holy cannoli! We're in a real fuss! He's gonna make meatballs out of us!

Mario: Don't worry, Luigi! He talks a big load! You forgot our secret weapon, mighty Mushroom Toad!

(Koopa runs past Toad, who sticks his hands out of the hole and trips Koopa.)

Mario: Well, Koopa! This time you're through!

Flab Boys: One false move and we'll sit on you!

Koopa: I guess you're right, so all I can say-

(Koopa pulls out a potion. He throws it and it creates a door.)

Koopa: Now that I've Kooped, I'll run away!

(Koopa runs into the door and it disappears.)

(Cut to the castle, where a crowd is cheering outside. Mario and Co are in the DJ room with James and the Flab Boys.)

Princess: In the end, Koopa's gone! And Rap Land's got a brand new song!

Flab Boy 1: It's about these dudes who deserve a pack!

Flab Boy 2: That's why we call it the Mario Rap!

(The Flab Boys bounce their bodies together and give each other five. Flab Boy 1 throws a record over to Toad, who puts it on a turntable and starts playing the Plumber's Rap. Everyone dances during the song. When it ends, James presents Mario with a crown.)

James: Mario! Mario! You're so cool! You're number one in a rappin' duel!

(James places the crown on Mario's head and everyone cheers.)
