Lemmy's Land: The Screenplay

By Lord Seth


               EXT. GRASSY PLAIN - NEXT TO STREAM - DAY

               Larry goes up to a stream and empties one of the cans into
               it. He throws the empty can offscreen.
 

               EXT. LAKE - DAY

               Mario empties two of the cans into a lake, then throws
               them offscreen.
 

               EXT. DESERT - DAY

               Bowser walks through the desert.

                                   BOWSER
                         Water... water... water... Can't find
                         any. Oh well.

               Bowser drinks several of the cans, then throws them
               offscreen.

                                   BOWSER
                         Darn it! It's just water. I wanted
                         coffee.
 

               INT. MUSHROOM KINGDOM PALACE - THRONE ROOM - DAY

               Smithy Jr. comes back into the room and sits on the throne
               again.

                                   SMITHY JR.
                         Man, it's hard to find people when
                         it's only you looking and you're
                         pretty slow at moving. I'm sure
                         they'll be stupid and try a last
                         minute attack on me.

               Mario, Luigi, Larry, Roy, Iggy, and Ludwig all burst in.

                                   SMITHY JR.
                         Am I right, or what?

                                   IGGY
                         Don't you think we should've, you
                         know, waited a little?

                                   MARIO
                         No. We have to catch him unaware.

                                   SMITHY JR.
                         Silly Mario. I am very aware!

               Smithy Jr. raises his hand to throw a hammer, but suddenly
               stiffens.

                                   SMITHY JR.
                         What? Why do I suddenly feel
                         so... less powerful?

                                   MARIO
                         See? If we had waited until he was
                         completely weakened, he would've
                         left already and gone into hiding
                         until he managed to power himself
                         up again.  We would have had
                         trouble finding him. Now he's
                         weakened and we know exactly where
                         he is. Prepare to be defeated,
                         Smithy Jr!

                                   SMITHY JR.
                         Oh, crud.

               Mario jumps over on top of Smithy Jr. The camera cuts away
               while Mario is in mid-jump.
 

               EXT. MUSHROOM KINGDOM PALACE - ENTRANCE - DAY

               Toad and the rest of his group enter. Toad is holding a
               beaker of a liquid.

                                   TOAD
                         Well, they did finally find an
                         antidote at Woohoo Hooniversity.
                         We're late, but if Mario and his
                         group didn't fix it in time, at
                         least we'll save SOME of the people
                         with this.
 

               INT. MUSHROOM KINGDOM PALACE - THRONE ROOM - DAY

               Smithy Jr. is now completely defeated. Various parts of him
               are scattered around the room. Mario triumphantly puts one
               foot on Smithy Jr's head.

                                   SMITHY JR.
                         Not... again...

               Smithy Jr's eyes close and he stops moving.

                                   MARIO
                         Well, this time we're going to be
                         sure to separate these parts so he
                         doesn't bother us again!

               Toad and his group enter.

                                   TOAD
                         Woah. It looks like some amazing
                         fight scene just happened, and that
                         the fight scene was so incredibly
                         violent and brutal they never would
                         get away with showing it in a
                         family movie.

                                   MARIO
                         That's pretty much it.

                                   PEACH
                         So Smithy Jr's defeated, and soon
                         everything will be back to
                         normal... so why do I have the
                         feeling that we're forgetting
                         something?

                                   LUDWIG
                         Dr. Physics will tell you what
                         you're forgetting!

               Ludwig is about to dash out, but Roy grabs him.

                                   ROY
                         I've had just about enough of all
                         this "Dr. Physics" nonsense...

               Someone who looks exactly like Ludwig, except he's wearing a
               doctor's outfit, comes in.

                                   DR. PHYSICS
                         Hi everyone! I'm Dr. Physics!

               Everyone stares at Dr. Physics, the aforementioned person.

                                   DR. PHYSICS
                         Yeah, I know I look a lot like
                         Ludwig. There's a funny story
                         behind that, actually. Would you
                         believe-

                                   ROY
                         So, wait. Dr. Physics is a real
                         person?

                                   LUDWIG
                         Of course! You didn't think I was
                         crazy, did you?

               Lord Seth comes in.

                                   LORD SETH
                         Lemmy! I finally found you! I'm
                         here to tell you the synonym for
                         goofy that I found!

                                   LEMMY
                         Okay. What is it?

                                   LORD SETH
                         It's... it's... uh... er... oh darn
                         it, I forgot! I went through all of
                         that, and I can't even remember it!

                                   LEMMY
                         It's okay. I didn't really care
                         anyway.

                                   LORD SETH
                         Really?

                                   LEMMY
                         Really.

                                   LORD SETH
                         So I went through all that to find
                         you to tell you something that you
                         didn't care about, and in the whole
                         mess I forgot what that was?

                                   LEMMY
                         It appears that way.

                                   LORD SETH
                         In that case, I'm going to go home
                         and cry at the utter futility of my
                         life.

               Lord Seth leaves.

                                   BOWSER
                         By the way, because you did help me
                         out, you seven are now un-banished
                         as long as you help me speed up the
                         reconstruction of the castle.

                                   WENDY
                         Hooray!

                                   LARRY
                         Well, it looks like everything's
                         finally peaceful. Maybe the
                         Mushroom Kingdom and the Koopas,
                         after this adventure, will finally
                         learn to accept and trust each
                         other. Maybe-

               As Larry continues, Smithy Jr. suddenly opens his eyes and
               grins evilly. He looks up. His hands are in two different
               areas of the room. Both pick up a rock as Larry continues
               talking. One throws the rock at Bowser, and the other one
               throws the rock at Mario. Both rocks hit the back of their
               target's heads. Then Smithy Jr. closes his eyes again and
               stops moving. Bowser and Mario turn around.

                                   BOWSER
                         Is that how you repay Larry's nice
                         offer?! By throwing rocks at us?!

                                   MARIO
                         I didn't throw any rock at you!
                         Someone threw a rock at me, though!

                                   ROY
                         Oh, yeah, that was me.

                                   WENDY
                         What are you talking about? You
                         didn't-

               Roy puts his hand on Wendy's mouth.

                                   ROY
                             (quietly to Wendy)
                         Be quiet! I like taking credit for
                         rock throws I didn't do! It gives
                         me more street cred!

                                   BOWSER
                         Well, as far as I'm concerned, this
                         whole new friendship thing between
                         the Koopas and the Mushroom Kingdom
                         that Larry was babbling on about is
                         over! And how dare you accuse Roy
                         of throwing rocks when he didn't
                         throw anything?

                                   MARIO
                         I didn't accuse him of anything!
                         And he just said that he did throw
                         the rock!

                                   BOWSER
                         Too bad! Come on, kids! Let's get
                         out of here! We need to finish
                         rebuilding the castle anyway!

                                   LARRY
                         But-

                                   BOWSER
                         GO OR YOU'RE GETTING BANISHED
                         AGAIN!

               The Koopalings all run out.

                                   BOWSER
                         Only one last thing to do...

               Bowser grabs Peach and runs out.

                                   PEACH
                         Hey!

                                   MARIO
                         Come back with her!

               Mario and Luigi both rush after Bowser.

                                   DR. PHYSICS
                         I'd better get out of here, also.
                         I've got some important experiments
                         to check up on.

               Dr. Physics leaves also, leaving Toad alone in the room. Then
               the Sledge Brother who was previously handing out the
               newspapers comes in, holding some newspapers.

                                   SLEDGE BROTHER
                         Extra! Extra! Read all about it!
                         Really low prices! Well, the extra
                         low prices isn't the headline, but
                         we're selling them for extra low
                         prices!

                                   TOAD
                         Oh, why not? How much is it?

                                   SLEDGE BROTHER
                         A coin.

                                   TOAD
                         Really? That's really cheap. I'll
                         take it!

               Toad gives the Sledge Brother a coin and the Sledge Brother
               gives him a newspaper, then leaves. Toad looks at the
               newspaper.

                                   TOAD
                             (reading)
                         Littering found to be rampant in
                         the Mushroom Kingdom and adjacent
                         areas... various empty soda cans
                         found scattered everywhere.
                             (stops reading)
                         Darn those litterers! They never
                         think about anyone but themselves!
                         I bet they'd never go and save the
                         Mushroom Kingdom like Mario, Luigi,
                         and those other guys did!
                             (pause)
                         You know, I wonder what it was we
                         were forgetting... Peach said she
                         thought there was something we
                         forgot... oh well. I'm sure it's
                         nothing important.
 

               INT. FORTRESS - DUNGEON - DAY

               The Goomba who has the Luigi disguise on is still in the
               dungeon cell.

                                   GOOMBA
                         Uh, hello? Hello? Would someone let
                         me out of here? I'm getting a bit
                         hungry. Hello? Hello? Is anyone out
                         there? ANYONE?! HELP!

               A Spiny comes in.

                                   GOOMBA
                         Spiny! Help! Let me out of here!

                                   SPINY
                             (screams)
                         It's Mario! GET ME OUT OF HERE!

                                   GOOMBA
                         Uh, actually I'm dressed up as
                         Luigi, not Mario.

                                   SPINY
                         Oh. Let me do that over.
                             (screams)
                         It's Luigi! GET ME OUT OF HERE!

               The Spiny runs out.

                                   GOOMBA
                         I hate my life.

                                                              FADE OUT.
