On the bridge, Mario, Luigi, Toad and Princess Toadstool have just started to cross George's Gorge, with Luigi and Toad being somewhat fearful of falling down into the gorge, which is filled with jagged rocks and rushing water. As the bridge begins to swing and sway, Luigi begins to tell Mario that it is not too late to turn back; it is only when Luigi says this that Mario notices King Koopa and his Shyguy henchmen at the back of the bridge.

Mario, optimistic, says that all that he, Toad, Luigi and Princess Toadstool need to do is use the bridge as a ladder to climb to the other end of George's Gorge. Unfortunately, before Mario's plan can be enacted, Luigi points to several incoming Albatoss carrying Bob-Ombs; under the orders of their leader, the Albatoss drop their Bob-Ombs directly on to Mario, Luigi, Toad, though they miss Princess Toadstool. | ||

As King Koopa leaves to get to Sheldon, Mario, Luigi, Toad and Princess Toadstool, with the latter three itching non-stop, notice several Albatoss brandishing Bob-Ombs approaching. | ||
