However, his persistence gets to her, and she orders him to dance with her. After several failed attempts at getting the necklace back during the dance, Mario is finally able to grab it away. Suddenly, [[Lena]] and a group of [[Goomba]]s appear, and Big Bertha aids Mario and Luigi in their escape, allowing them to use her Stompers.

| Mario and [[Luigi]] first encounter Big Bertha after they are robbed by the [[old lady]] in [[Koopa Square]]. [[Princess Daisy (film character)|Daisy]]'s [[meteorite piece|meteorite necklace]] is stolen by the old lady, which Big Bertha immediately sees and decides to take it for herself. Big Bertha picks up the old lady and tosses her into a vehicle, stealing the necklace and jumping away from the brothers using her [[Thwomp Stomper]]s. | |

|
| Later in the film, Mario and Luigi make an agreement with [[Spike (film character)|Spike]] and [[Iggy (film character)|Iggy]] to work together to retrieve the meteorite piece. Luigi provides Spike and Iggy with a description of Big Bertha, and the two are able to pinpoint who he's talking about and where they will find her. They arrive to her place of work, the Boom Boom Bar, and see Big Bertha donning the meteorite necklace. Mario informs Luigi he has a plan to use his charm on her. Mario attempts to flirt with her, and he is met with a punch. Mario persists and tries again, resulting in Big Bertha ordering him to dance with her. They begin slow dancing, with Mario continuously making efforts through this dance to take the meteorite necklace off of her without her noticing. He succeeds, and runs off in a quick moment she turns around, upsetting her.

| [[Lena]] and a group of [[Goomba|Goombas]] arrive at the bar, arresting Spike and Iggy and taking back the meteorite necklace from Mario. Big Bertha surprisingly offers Mario and Luigi help, ushering them into the hat check room after she punches and knocks out the [[Hat Check Girl]]. She barricades the door behind her, and instructs Mario and Luigi to take a pair of Thwomp Stompers with their cartridges. She pulls in Mario for a kiss, and they thank her as they jump through a window away from the Boom Boom Bar. | | ==Trivia== |
| | *Big Bertha is named after the [[Big Bertha|fish]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. Much like the fish's depiction in the ''[[Nintendo Comics System]]'', Big Bertha had a crush on Mario. |

| She later appears near the catwalk in Koopa Square where Mario and [[Bowser|President Koopa]] are having their battle. As Luigi and Daisy attempt to make their way over to the catwalk, Bertha throws Luigi a pair of Thwomp Stompers.
