When Mario, Luigi, Connie, and Snoutlet run afoul of the scene, Shun tries to explain what the trio of troublemakers is doing, only to be shut up by Ten, while Ecks decides that Gobblick can just fight the heroic quartet as a counter-offer. During their getaway, Ecks claims that the Extension Corps has more important business, or "a bigger fish to zap" in his words. | ||

When Mario and Luigi | When Mario and Luigi lock horns with the Extension Corps one last time in [[Fortress Zokket]], Ecks uses high-speed attacks. First, he may perform a move similar to the [[Spritzbloom]] from ''[[Mario & Luigi: Dream Team]]'', and must be repelled with a hammer strike before he zaps a Bro. In his second attack, Ecks will sneak up behind his target to crash into them from behind; this is countered by jumping on him. If Ecks lands his attacks, he may steal an active [[Battle Plug]] and throw it away for the rest of the battle. | ||
