This segment is the ''[[Club Mario]]'' segment that aired alongside ''{{iw|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda (TV Series)|The Legend of Zelda}}'' episode "{{iw|zeldawiki|The Ringer}}," replacing the original live-action segment "[[Slime Busters]]."

==Plot synopsis==
After the cartoon episode, the show cuts to [[Tommy Treehugger]] holding a wand and a spellbook with [[Evil Eric]] sitting in a beach chair with the [[Mario]] doll between his legs, with the former mentioning that they have been so much fun at [[Club Mario (location)|Club Mario]], with Evil Eric agreeing. Evil Eric then tells Tommy to turn to page 467 in his spellbook, which Tommy does, explaining the book conveniently opened to that page, before asking for his wand. He then reads the contents from the page, saying, "''Hickory dickory, I hope this works, trying to transmogrify you...into a jerk?''" The screen then flashes, showing Evil Eric having been turned into a jerk. He then introduces himself to the viewer, saying that they serve himself, before snatching the wand and spellbook from Tommy. He then orders him to sit in the beach chair, which he does, holding his hands up. Evil Eric then walks over to a bubble machine, questioning why there would be bubbles in his show, and promptly disconnects the machine. Walking back over to Tommy, he tells him that he can put his hands down, saying that he can play with the doll or do something else.

Later, Evil Eric has taped Tommy's mouth with duct tape and tied his hands and feet together with ropes. He then announces to the viewer that he has the spellbook and the wand, explaining that it is his show. When Tommy tries to protest about being captured, Evil Eric tells him to be quiet, before telling the viewer that he is going to perform more tricks for them. He then opens to another page in the spellbook, reading the contents from the page: "''Roses are red, violets do change. Turn your co-host...into a fern!''" The screen then flashes again, this time showing Tommy having been turned into a fern.

Evil Eric expresses excitement from the spell working on Tommy, explaining that he is now a fern. He then tells Tommy to not worry, explaining that he will be good to him, before pouring some water onto him. He then explains to the viewer that he is getting better at magic, before saying goodbye to them, explaining that Tommy and Co-MC will return and that he and Tommy need to "surf on out of here."
