Episode 8
Title: Did you
have fun? NO!!!
Phil: Previously on: The Amazing Race MK! 6 teams set off from the spectacular Rainbow Road. After the wild tasks of the previous leg…
We see replays of the Star Dive.
Phil: … teams were starting to feel the fatigue. While waiting for a bus, Dixie & Tiny were busy anticipating the excitement of the next location: Luigi’s Mansion. However, they made one fatal flaw. With their fanny pack left behind, the sisters found themselves deep in last place. However, with the intervention of a hidden Fast Forward, they managed to stay in the race. Booster & Snifit and Lemmy & Iggy battled it out after being delayed by a flat tire. In the end, Booster & Snifit checked in in last place, but this was the first non-elimination leg of the race. Now, Booster & Snifit are marked for elimination. 6 teams remain… Who will be eliminated… next?
The opening plays with no new red X’s.
Phil: This… *creepy music* is the infamous Luigi’s Mansion. A manifestation of pure, concentrated fear, it is home to many Boos and ghosts. The rooms within the mansion may be confusing, but the roof is wide open and peaceful. This… was the sixth Pit Stop… in a race around the kingdom. Teams arrived here for a mandatory rest period that allows them to eat, sleep, and mingle with the other teams… Before the next leg could even begin, controversy had already ignited.
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
*Indistinct yelling*
Booster/Snifit
-- Lackey + Master
***Snifit: Well, it was, to coin a
phrase, a series of unfortunate events.
***Booster: I WASn’t there!
***Snifit: Yeah, yeah. First Booster was eating a peach. He accidentally ate the pit.
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
***Iggy: And then out of nowhere this
peach pit hits me in the head. It hurt, man!
***Lemmy: And I was watching. It was Booster that spit at him!
Booster/Snifit
-- Lackey + Master
***Snifit: When Booster spit it out,
it looked like he was doing it intentionally. That doesn’t mean he was
acting towards the Koopa Kids with malice!
***Booster: (weeping) I don’t even know anyone named Alice!
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
***Lemmy: He tried to pretend that
it wasn’t his fault… that it was an accident, but I can see right through
him.
***Iggy: We aren’t fooled. Those two don’t like us, and it was obviously on purpose.
***Lemmy: The gloves are off now!
Booster/Snifit
-- Lackey + Master
***Snifit: They’re so angry at us.
I don’t even feel safe being around them. It’s frightening…
Phil: Kat & Ana, who were the first to arrive at 1:08 AM… will depart… at 1:08 PM.
*Riiiiiiiiiiiiiip*
Kat: (reading) Fly to the Forest Illusion on the continent of Dinosaur Land!
Phil: Teams must now fly to Dinosaur Land. They are headed for the Forest of Illusion. Due to the limited number of flights to the Forest of Illusion Airport, teams are permitted to take taxis or trains to the Forest. However, they must fly to Dinosaur Land first. When they arrive, teams will find their next clue at this building: The Forest Ghost House… This… is also where teams will find a major surprise of the race…
Kat: Okay!
Ana: Let’s hurry!
***Kat: We’re beginning this leg in first place. We were certainly happy to see our best friends show up right behind us.
***Ana: Yeah, kudos to them for finding the Fast Forward!
Ana: Well, I guess we’re walking to the airport.
Kat: It’s over here!
Ana: Man, they’re building airports all over the place these days…
SPECTRA SHADE AIRPORT
Kat: What’s this?
TurBoo: Hellooo! Welcome to Spectra Shade Airport! You can see all our flights on that board over there. It’s constantly updated and contains all information, so don’t bother asking us for other flights.
Kat: Oh… okay.
Ana reads the board.
Kat: What’s our plan?
Ana: *sigh* Looks like we’re all going to be stuck on the same flight.
Kat: Really?
Ana: There’s no flights to Dinosaur Land here. It’s on another continent. Therefore, we’re going to have to fly to MKA, and there’s only one flight here… at 7:00 AM.
*Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip*
Dixie/Tiny
-- Sisters - 1:15 PM
Both: Dinosaur Land! Ooooohhhh!!!
***Dixie: I mean, the thing is, we were so happy to catch up to Kat & Ana that we didn’t care if we were in second!
***Tiny: If we stick together, we can beat all odds!
Tiny: Another day, another dollar!
SPECTRA SHADE AIRPORT
Dixie/Tiny
-- Sisters
Dixie: Kat!!! Ana!!!
Kat/Ana
-- Sisters / Ninjas
Ana: Welcome to one-flight-out-of-here’s-ville.
Tiny: Just one flight, eh?
Dixie: That’s right!
***Kat: The other teams really don’t know what they’re up against.
*Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiip*
Koopa/Paratroopa
-- Partners
***Kat: They’re floundering around
at the bottom of the pack. It’s a little pathetic.
*Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip*
Kooper/Koops
-- Recent Friends
***Kat: We always beat them unless
one of us is struck with bad luck, which, let’s be honest, can happen to
anyone.
*Riiiiiiiiiiip*
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
***Kat: Now we’re all caught up again,
but it doesn’t make me worry.
*Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip*
Booster/Snifit
-- Lackey + Master
***Kat: Not one bit!
Snifit: *reads* … Ghost house. Reminder: You are marked for elimination. Arrive first or suffer the consequences.
Booster: Whaz Marked for Felicitations?
Snifit: I’ll tell you later, let’s see if we can catch up during the airport fiasco…
…
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
Lemmy: Oh, look! Here’s the idiots.
Iggy: Get out of here, you morons. No-one wants you here.
Booster/Snifit
-- Lackey + Master
Snifit: Hey, come on you two. I told
you before that it was an accident. Can’t we just forget this and run a
clean race?
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
Both: …
Kat/Ana
-- Sisters / Ninjas
Kat: Hey… Iggy… is your hair turning
green?
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
Iggy: Huh? *looks in reflective surface*
Oh… heh heh… I guess it is.
Ana: What’s that all about?
Iggy: Well, my bro here has naturally rainbow hair, but I have green hair. We’re best friends so I decided to dye mine to match his. Not many people know that my real hair color is green though. I guess it doesn’t matter now… I don’t have enough time on the race to dye it anyway. *laughs*
…
Phil: All 6 teams are now on a flight to MKA, the largest airport in the Mushroom Kingdom.
MUSHROOM KINGDOM AIRPORT
The plane lands…
Kat/Ana
-- Sisters / Ninjas
Kat: Come on! Let’s get going!
Ana: Hurry!
Dixie/Tiny
-- Sisters
Dixie: We’re right behind you!
Koopa/Paratroopa
-- Partners
Paratroopa: Where are we going? Which
airline?
Kooper/Koops
-- Recent Friends
Kooper: There’s too many options. Let’s
go to a travel agent!
Koops: Over there? Yeah…
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
Lemmy: C’mon, Ig! What are you waiting
for?
Iggy: I’m coming!
Booster/Snifit
-- Lackey + Master
Snifit: Go!!!
Kooper/Koops
-- Recent Friends
Kooper: Hi there! We need to get to
The Forest of Illusion in Dinosaur Land. We need the quickest flight.
Goombellia: Very well, give me a few minutes here. You don’t care which airline you’re on?
Koops: Uh, no. Any airline will be fine, as long as we get there quickly.
Kat/Ana
-- Sisters / Ninjas
Kat: Girls! Split up! We’ll find more
information that way!
Dixie/Tiny
-- Sisters
Dixie: Gotcha! We’re checking Dinoair!
Kat: Okay! Come on, Ana, let’s see Pterodacyl United.
Koopa/Paratroopa
-- Partners
Paratroopa: Quick! Follow the ninjas!
Kooper/Koops
-- Recent Friends
***Kooper: Well, we saw out the window
all the teams running around frantically. They were basically just guessing.
Goombellia: Okay…
***Kooper: Our travel agent was very fast. She compared all the flights and got us on the one we needed.
Goombellia: You two are now booked on Dinoair. It departs later than Pterodactyl United, but it arrives earlier because the Ptero one stops at Yoshi’s Island first.
Kooper: Yoshi’s Island? Wow, that’s so far out of the way!
Goombellia: No no, the Yoshi’s Island in Dinosaur Land. It’s a different place. *chuckles*
Koops: Excellent! So, we’re on the first flight?
Goombellia: Confirmed!
Kooper/Koops -- Recent Friends - First Flight
Kooper: Okay! Thank you very much!
Dixie/Tiny -- Sisters
Dixie: Hi!! We’re trying to get a flight to the Forest of Illusion! We need the fastest flight!
Rex: Yes, indeed! We have a flight at 5:10.
Tiny: Okay, that’s soon enough. Are there any other flights?
Rex: Pterodactyl United has a flight at 4:45.
Dixie: Oh, shoot! Let’s go!
Tiny: Hold on, hold on… Which one arrives first?
Rex: Ours does. It’s direct. Theirs stops at Yoshi’s Island over in Dinosaur Land.
Tiny: Ah! Excellent, could we get two tickets please?
Rex: I’m not sure if we have enough space…
Dixie: Oh, please!
Tiny: It would really help us out!
Kat/Ana -- Sisters / Ninjas
Ana: Hi! Do you have a flight to the Forest of Illusion today?
Pterry Toad: Yes we do, we’re departing at 4:45
Kat: Is this the fastest flight here?
Pterry: No, Dinoair has one that arrives earlier.
Koopa/Paratroopa
-- Partners
Koopa: Come on! Run!
Kat/Ana
-- Sisters / Ninjas
Kat: Aw, no! Come on, Ana! We have
to beat them there!
Dixie/Tiny

Kat/Ana

All 4: *Jumbled arguing*
Dixie/Tiny

Dixie: *shrugs* Sorry, you Koopas! The flight’s full. Go somewhere else!
Koopa/Paratroopa
-- Partners
Koopa: Seriously?! Aww…
Paratroopa: C’mon, let’s go…
Kat/Ana
-- Sisters / Ninjas
Kat: Ugh… *mumbles* Yeah, see ya…
Ana: Losers… Hey Dix! Were you lying to them or is the plane really full?
Dixie/Tiny
-- Sisters
Dixie: Yeah, sorry you two… We took
the last seats…
Tiny: You’d better hurry and get another flight.
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
Iggy: So, that’s it then? We’re confirmed?
Pterry: Yep! You’re on your way to the Forest of Illusion.
Iggy/Lemmy -- Brothers – Second Flight
Lemmy: Thank, you!
Booster/Snifit
-- Lackey + Master
Snifit: Hi, us too? Same flight?
Booster: Mayk it snappers!
Pterry: Er, sure…
… *Printing noises*
Booster/Snifit -- Lackey + Master – Second Flight
Booster: Thanks! *Smoooooch*
Pterry: Aaaauauuuuggggh!!!
Snifit: Booster!!! How many times have I told you not to do that?!
Booster: 17,879,556,998 times!
Snifit: *twitch*

***Koopa: So eventually we got on the
Ptery United Flight. We’re kinda bummed…
Koopa/Paratroopa -- Partners – Second Flight
***Koopa: The ninjas managed to get on too. I tell ya, they’re going to be tough competition.
Kat/Ana -- Sisters / Ninjas – Second Flight
***Koopa: In any case, we’re all on our way. We’ll catch up… we will…
The planes fly into the sky.
…
YOSHI’S ISLAND (DINOSAUR LAND)
A plane lands.
Kat/Ana

Iggy/Lemmy

Lemmy: Where is it? Over here?
Koopa/Paratroopa

Koopa: Right now we’re waiting to get
on our connecting flight and-
P.A.: *fuzz* Uhh, attention folks. We apologize, but the Pteryodactyl United Flight to the Forest of Illusion has been cancelled. We’re sorry for any inconvenience.
All 8: No!!!
Kat/Ana
-- Sisters / Ninjas
***Kat: Before the announcement was
finished, we were already off and running. It wasn’t long before we reached
a ticket desk.
Kat: Hi! Please tell us you have tickets to the Forest of Illusion!
Eerie: Hmm… *checks computer* Well, it looks like we’re the only airline with a flight there all day. Would you like tickets?
Both: Yes!!!
Koopa/Paratroopa
-- Partners
Koopa: Hey, wait! Us too! Can we have
tickets?!
Eerie: Now hold on…
The ghost types on a keyboard…
Eerie: Okay, you’re both on our flight.
Kat: Oh, thank you!
Paratroopa: Yes! Thanks a lot!
Eerie: You two- *points to the Koopas* -are lucky! You got the last tickets.
Koopa: Nice!
Kat/Ana
-- Sisters / Ninjas – Third Flight
Koopa/Paratroopa

Ana: Thank you! Bye!
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
Lemmy: Did I hear correctly? You have
no more tickets all day?
Eerie: Yes, unfortunately.
Iggy: Aww, man…
The plane takes off.
Booster/Snifit
-- Lackey + Master
Snifit: I guess that just leaves us…
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
Lemmy: What should we do, Iggy?
Iggy: We have to find another way. Maybe we can take a taxi, train, ferry… anything!
Booster/Snifit
-- Lackey + Master
Snifit: C’mon, Booster. There’s a ferry
to Chocolate Island. We can then take a taxi.
Booster: Oooh! Fairies! Do I get a wish?!
Snifit: … No…
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
Lemmy: … Well, their plan sounds good.
Unless you have any better ideas…
Iggy: I don’t think so. Let’s go get a ferry.

Dixie/Tiny
-- Sisters
Dixie: Are you ready?
***Tiny: Once again we were separated from our best friends.
***Dixie: But it was both of our decisions to split up at the airport, and now we’re paying for it.
***Tiny: But we’ll go for the win!
Kooper/Koops
-- Recent Friends
Kooper: Okay! Let’s go! Now!
Dixie/Tiny -- Sisters
Dixie: Hey, Dix. Let’s see that map.
Tiny: …
Kooper/Koops
-- Recent Friends
Kooper: You guys have a map? Would
you mind sharing it with us?
Dixie: Uhh…
Kooper: Come on, we’re both in first place and way ahead of the others! What do you have to lose?
Tiny: Fine. C’mere.
Koops: Thanks.
Dixie: Okay, look. There’s the airport, and there’s the ghost house. It should be an easy walk through the thick forest.
Kooper: I see. Shall we go?
Tiny: Okay, yeah, that’s simple.
Koops: Ladies first!
Dixie: Why, thank you!
Tiny: Straight this way?
Dixie: Yes, there’s a forest with some open trees and then it’s the ghost house.
Kooper/Koops
-- Recent Friends
Kooper: Let’s go!
YOSHI’S ISLAND (DINOSAUR LAND)
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
Lemmy: Is this the place?
Iggy: It’s the fourth division of the island; yes, the ferry terminal should be here.
Booster/Snifit
-- Lackey + Master
Booster: Will my fairy be a godmother?
Snifit: THEY’RE NOT THAT KIND OF FAIRY!!!
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
Lemmy: Ah, here we are! Hi! Do you
have any ferries to The Forest of Illusion?
Kiyoshi: Sorry, no, but I can give you tickets to Chocolate Island. You dock at the east end, so the forest is not far away.
Iggy: Okay, we’ll take it.
Kiyoshi: Here you are!
Booster/Snifit
-- Lackey + Master
Snifit: Hi! Us too?
Kiyoshi: Okay! You’re on your way!
…
*Ferry horn*
Iggy: Here we go!
The ferry sails off into the sea.
*Time lapse*
Dixie/Tiny
-- Sisters
Dixie: *yawn* This forest is monotonous!
Tiny: I think I see it up there! Yeah!
We see a shot of the ghost house. A Boo circles its top.
Both: Woah…
Tiny: Eh, Luigi’s Mansion was bigger.
Dixie: Haha, yeah! Hey, there’s a flag!
Tiny: Let’s go!
Kooper/Koops
-- Recent Friends
Kooper: What happened to the girls?
Koops: They went ahead.
Kooper: Right… when you were tying your shoe.
Koops: …
Dixie/Tiny
-- Sisters
Tiny: Right up ahead, Dix! What is
that?
Dixie: Oh my gosh, it’s a Yield!
Tiny: It is? No it isn’t! There was no warning in the last clue!
Dixie: What are you talking about? It’s a Yield!
Tiny: It’s not a Yield, Sis! Look!
They approach it.
Tiny: Intersection… What’s this?
Phil: When teams arrive at the Forest Ghost House, they will encounter a new twist in the race. They must join forces with another team, then perform all tasks and make all decisions together… until further notice.
*Riiiiiiiiiiiiiip*
Tiny: “Warning! You are Intersected”
Dixie: So we have to join up with another team?
Tiny: Yeah, and I assume it’s going to be the Aqua Koopas…
Dixie: What happened to them?
Kooper/Koops
-- Recent Friends
Kooper: C’mon, Koops! Will ya hurry
up? The trees are not going to freaking eat you!
Koops: How… how do you know?
Kooper facepalms.
Dixie/Tiny
-- Sisters
Dixie: C’mon, you guys…
Tiny: The other flight is landing…
Second Flight
- 1:00 PM
Kat/Ana
-- Sisters / Ninjas
Kat: Hurry!
Ana: Let’s do well this leg!
Kat: Hopefully we can find our good friends!
Koopa/Paratroopa
-- Partners
Paratroopa: Yahooo! Forest of Illusion!
I remember this place!
Koopa: You were stationed here?
Paratroopa: Yep! Over there in the secret division.
Koopa: Cool!
Kooper/Koops
-- Recent Friends
Kooper: There it is! Finally!
Koops: Oh, dang! I hope we don’t have to go inside it.
Kooper: Hey, there’s the girls!
Dixie/Tiny
-- Sisters
Dixie: Hey! Kooper! Koops! We have
to work with you!
Tiny: Yeah! It’s an Intersection!
*Riiiiiiiiiiiiip*
Kooper: Intersection…
Koops: Okay, that’s fine with me, as long as we can move away from this haunted house!!!
Kooper rolls his eyes.
Dixie: Detour!
Phil: A Detour is a choice between two task, each with its own pros and cons. This Detour will allow teams to relive two of Mario’s greatest struggles in this forest. The choice: Sink… or Float. In Sink, the newly joined teams will make their way here, the second division, where a large lake sits. Here, teams will don SCUBA gear and dive deep, searching for Urchins. They must harvest these Urchins and bring them to the surface. When they have 30 Urchins, they will receive their next clue. In Float, the newly joined teams will make their way to the third division, an area where large bubbles are regularly seen for an unknown reason. This infamous location was where Mario, after being lost for hours, finally found his way out of the forest through this Magic Keyhole. Now, the newly joined teams must carry this!
The camera shows a huge key the size of a queen-sized mattress.
Phil: With all four team members working together, manoeuvring this unorthodox key will be difficult… but possible. Once teams have brought the key to the keyhole, they will receive their next clue.
Tiny: I say we do the key one.
Koops: “Carry an enormous key.” How big do you think it’ll be?
Kooper: I think she’s right. Getting Urchins from the lakebed sounds tricky and difficult… and you’d probably be scared of them anyway.
Dixie: Okay, it’s settled. We’re doing Float.
Kat/Ana
-- Sisters / Ninjas
Kat: Ah, what a lovely forest. The
trees cast such intriguing shadows on the ground.
Ana: We should come back here sometime. It would be a good place to train.
Koopa/Paratroopa
-- Partners
Koopa: Are we going the right way?
Paratroopa: Yes, just follow me. I’m pretty sure I know where it is.
Koopa: Okay…
Kat/Ana
-- Sisters / Ninjas
Kat: I believe we go this way…
Dixie/Tiny
-- Sisters
Kooper/Koops
-- Recent Friends
Kooper: This is gonna be fun!
Dixie: Yeah. We don’t mind working with you as long as we knock the Koopalings or Booster out of the race.
Koops: Yeah… Those Koopalings are pretty mean…
Kooper: And Booster’s SO annoying!
Dixie: Are we almost there?
Tiny: I think so… We just keep heading south.
Koopa/Paratroopa
-- Partners
Koopa: That’s it, huh?
Paratroopa: Yep! Impressive, huh?
Koopa: Uh… no.
Paratroopa: Exactly! Hahaha! C’mon!
Kat/Ana
-- Sisters / Ninjas
Kat: Is that the ghost house?
Ana: Might be, come on.
*Riiiiiiiiiiiiiip*
Koopa/Paratroopa
-- Partners
Paratroopa: Intersection, huh?
Koopa: What’s this about?
Kat/Ana
-- Sisters / Ninjas
Kat: There it is!
Ana: Luigi’s Mansion was better.
*Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiip*
Kat: Looks like a new twist in the race.
Koopa/Paratroopa
-- Partners
Koopa: I guess we should work together,
girls.
Kat: I guess so. I wonder where the other girls are.
Paratroopa: Join us, and you may find them! Mwa ha ha!
Ana: Heh…
*Riiiiiiiiiiiip*
Ana: So, which Detour are we doing?
Koopa: I’d kinda like to get the Urchins.
Kat: I agree, it sounds easy.
Koopa: Para, is that okay?
Paratroopa: I dunno… I’m not that big on swimming.
Kat: We have to make the right decision.
Ana: Yeah, if he can’t do it then its gonna hurt all of us because we’re Intersected.
Paratroopa: It’s okay, I’ll do it.
Ana: All right then.
Dixie/Tiny

Kooper/Koops

Dixie: So… how’s life?
Kooper: Eh, heh… don’t even get me started.
Koops: This race has been so much more stressful than we expected it to be.
Tiny: You’re not allowed to say that. We’re the most stressed out here!
***Dixie: It was an interesting experience working alongside the Aquakoops.
***Tiny: A little change of scenery… hahaha!

Dixie: Oh my gosh!!! Look!

Koops: Okay, everyone take a corner.

Dixie: Which… which way do we go?
Tiny: That way! Follow the red and yellow flags!
Kooper: Oh… my… gosh…
Koops: Heavy…

Koopa/Paratroopa

Kat: This is it?
Paratroopa: Yep! This is the place they call The Lake of Illusion.
Ana: Over there! There’s where we suit up.
Koopa: I never looked good in a SCUBA suit… My shell always made it look like I was a humpback.
Paratroopa: You? What about me? I hate having my wings pressed against my shell for so long! They lose their fluffiness!
Kat: C’mon, guys! Less chat, more suiting up.

Dixie is walking backwards, supporting
the key. Her foot grazes the edge of the floor.
Dixie: Oh (Bleep)! Oh (Bleep)! Oh (Bleep)! Oh (Bleep)! Oh (Bleep)! Oh (Bleep)!!!
She falls. The large key goes crashing to the ground.
Dixie: Owww…

Dixie takes out a juice box and drinks it.

Lemmy: Hey, what’s that up there? A Yield?
Iggy: Ooh, really! Let’s send them even further back!
Intense music plays as they rush up, but abruptly stops when they reach the clue box.
Iggy: Intersection? Huh?
*Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip*
Lemmy: *reads* … Oh no!
Iggy: What?
Lemmy: Oh NO!!!
Iggy: What, what? Let me see! *reads*
Lemmy: We have to…
Iggy: WORK WITH THEM?!
Lemmy: Are you KIDDING me?!
Iggy: Urgh! This stinks! Now we have to work with a wimp and an idiot, AND they’re like half an hour behind, so we have to wait for them…
Lemmy: Well, this may be it… You know how lucky they are…
Iggy: It can’t get any worse…

All 4: Ughhh…
Dixie: This is so heavy, I can’t even believe it!
Koops: Oh, great, now we have to get it by these trees.
Kooper: How are we going to do this?
Dixie: Like this!
She shoves the key as we hear the sound of metal on bark.
Tiny: Woah! Dix, don’t kill the trees!
Dixie: I don’t want to fall behind!

Ana: Hee hee! Look at the Urchins. They have cute little faces!
Paratroopa: *shakes like a dog* Uuuuughhhh… That was very unpleasant!
Koopa: But you did very well!
Kat: Yeah! Way to go!
***Kat: If we didn’t have Paratroopa on our team, we probably would’ve taken a lot longer.
***Ana: It worked out great that we could Intersect with them… I think it certainly helped us.
Rip Van: Ah, I see you brought me my dinner! Thanks! Here’s your clue!
*Riiiiiiiiiiip*
Kat: Oh boy… this is cryptic.
Koopa: Lemme see. “Travel to” … ”The Middle of Nowhere”?!
Phil: The Intersected teams must now travel to this place…
The camera shows an open clearing.
Phil: This clearing in the center of the forest is known as the middle of nowhere by residents. Teams will find their next clue here.
Paratroopa: Oh! Haha! That’s what we called this place *points to map* because it’s in the middle of the forest.

Iggy: Oh, hey, look who finally showed up.
Lemmy: Mm…
Booster/Snifit

Snifit: Hey Iggy, hey Lemmy. What’s
this?
*Riiiiiiiiip*
Iggy/Lemmy
-- Brothers
Iggy: It’s an intersection, and unfortunately
we have to work together.
Snifit: Oh, well that’s good then. We’ll get the job done faster and-
Booster: UNDERWEAR TIME!!!
He removes his pants.
Other 3: …
Lemmy: And THAT’S why we’re dreading the upcoming task.
*Riiiiiiiiiiiip*
Lemmy: Okay, it’s a Detour.
Iggy: Carrying a huge key? I’m not sure those two could handle it, and all they would do is slow us down.
Snifit: Hey! Lemme see!
Lemmy: You’re probably correct. Let’s do the Urchins.
Snifit: We’re part of your team now! Let me read the clue!
Lemmy tosses him the clue.
Snifit: Hey! We have to help in decision making.
Iggy: Nnnnnnnnnnnno you don’t. Come. Now.
Booster: YASH SUR!!!

Tiny: Let’s go!

Koopa/Paratroopa

Paratroopa: Haha! This is it! Welcome
to the middle of nowhere, everyone!
Kat: Ha! How anticlimactic…
Koopa: There’s the clue!
*Riiiiiiiiiiiip*
Koopa: Roadblock!
Kat: Teams are no longer joined…
Phil: At the Roadblock clue box, teams will no longer be joined by the Intersection. A Roadblock is a task that only one team member may perform. No person may do more than 6 roadblocks on the entire race… As Mario and Luigi got lost and turned around in this forest, they made an unexpected detour to this place… The Forest Gorge.
The camera shows the level known as “Forest Secret Area”.
Phil: To get across, they had to ride these surfing winged blocks. Now, teams will also have to do this. However, these surfing blocks are much faster and harder to control. If teams can control the beast, they will receive their next clue when they reach the goal.
Kat: “Who’s ready for a wild ride? (Really wild)”
Ana: Me! Me! I wanna do it!
Kat: You’ve done enough, it’s my turn.
Ana: Awwww!

Iggy: Is this it?
Lemmy: Yep. Hey, get out and suit up. Do it quickly.
Snifit: You two have to stop ordering us around. We’re all part of the same team now.
Lemmy: *sigh* Look, we don’t want to get eliminated any more than you do, so if we all work fast we’ll be done soon!
Snifit: Yeah, but if we don’t work together we’ll falter!
Iggy: Shut up and suit up.
Snifit: *sigh*
***Snifit: It wasn’t a happy train for sure. Everyone was simply miserable. I foresaw trouble…
Booster: Whaz dis?
Snifit: It’s a SCUBA suit, Booster. Here’s yours. Put it on so you can breathe underwater.
Booster: Aww, I can already doo dat! Watch!
He sucks up lots of water.
Snifit: Booster!!!
Booster: Pwaaahhh
He sprays water all over Lemmy & Iggy.
Booster: Tastes like Illusion!

Tiny: That was hard… but at least it’s over!
*Riiiiiiiiip*
Tiny: The middle of nowhere…
Kooper: Where’s that?
Dixie: Let’s look at the map.
She unfolds the map.
Dixie: Hmm…
Koops: If I had to guess… I’d say it’s this place *points* because it’s a field right in the middle of the forest…
Dixie: That, uh… sounds exactly correct.

Koopa: Thanks! Wow, Para! This might be our best leg yet!
*Riiiiiiiiiiiip*
Koopa: Make your way to the next Pit Stop…
Phil: Teams must now continue to follow the path out of the forest, until they reach this place: Forest Fortress. This towering fort on the edge of Soda Lake was built as a stronghold by Bowser even though he unknowingly allowed Mario to access Star Road by doing so. This fort, which is now a tourist attraction, is the Pit Stop for this leg of the race. The last team to check in here…may be eliminated.
Paratroopa: Pit Stop! Are we in first?!
Koopa: I sure hope so! Let’s go! Forest Fortress! You familiar with it?
Paratroopa: You betcha! Come on!

Lemmy: I did not see that. I did not see that.
Phil: And for that you have incurred a 35-minute penalty. Please wait over there.
Iggy: Oh man… But those two have a penalty too.
Lemmy: If they arrive in the next five minutes we’re out. If not, we’re safe.
Iggy: *gulp*

***Snifit: Well in the beginning, we were just racing with good spirits, but when we saw the Koopalings standing at the side of the mat, we were shocked.
Phil: Booster & Snifit? You’re the sixth team to arrive. You were marked for elimination and have received a 30 minute penalty.
Tense music plays.
Phil: Both of you have penalties… Booster & Snifit’s penalty is 30 minutes.
…
Phil: Iggy & Lemmy? At this current point in time… your time penalty is… 30 minutes and 10 seconds.

Both have crestfallen expressions.

insane!

They walk off.
Iggy/Lemmy

Phil: Iggy & Lemmy? With the penalty
you have received you are the last team to arrive. I’m terribly sorry to
tell you you’ve been eliminated from the race.
Iggy: Ughh…What an awful way to go.
Phil: This is officially the closest margin for elimination in the entire history of any version of this show.
Lemmy: Well, nothing we can do about it.
Iggy: Yeah… Hey, look! I didn’t notice before, but my hair’s all green now!
Lemmy: Haha! Yeah, it must’ve washed off in the lake!
Iggy: Eh, oh well. This is my true image, Mushroom Kingdom!
***Lemmy: We could not match the legacy set by our dad and younger brother, but we feel proud of what we have accomplished.
***Iggy: We crushed many weaklings in our path and strived for victory.
***Lemmy: The race was tough! It was one of the first real challenges either of us have ever faced.
***Iggy: And in the end, we’re brothers and that’s the whole story. He’s my best friend-
***Lemmy: And I’m his. Green hair, or rainbow.
***Both *Laughing*
