Toad, Princess Toadstool and King James manage to meet up with Mario, Luigi and the Flab Boys outside the castle, where King James points out that they need to cut off Rap Land's power supply to stop Rappin' Koopa's takeover; a huge cord plugged into a hydroelectric dam. Luigi is afraid to pull the plug, as he fears that he'll get electrocuted. Mario decides to do it, and is given a boost up to the outlet by Luigi and the Flab Boys. As Mario grabs onto the cord, he gets shocked, but the power surge transforms him into [[Fire Mario|Super Mario]], giving him the strength to unplug the cord. | |||
