"'''Mama Luigi'''" is the thirteenth and final episode of the ''[[Super Mario World (television series)|Super Mario World]]'' animated series. In this episode, [[Luigi]] tells [[Yoshi]] the story of how the former met the latter. It mostly takes place at the beginning of the show's story, serving as a prequel, and is Yoshi's origin story, where Luigi takes care of Yoshi. They later find [[Mario]], and they go to [[Bowser|King Koopa]]'s [[Bowser's Castle#Super Mario World|Neon Castle]] to save [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]]. During the story, Luigi and Yoshi commentate on the events in the story, with the episode occasionally cutting back to the present. This is the last animated episode based on the ''[[Super Mario (franchise)|Super Mario]]'' franchise, since no episodes have been produced by [[DIC Entertainment|DIC]] or any other company since the cancelation of ''[[Captain N: The Game Master]]'' on NBC in 1991.


This episode also marks the only appearance of several enemies in a ''Super Mario'' cartoon, including [[Bomber Bill|Magnum Bill]]s, [[Sumo Bro|Fire Sumo]]s, [[Urchin]]s, [[Blurp]]s, and [[Torpedo Ted]]s, as well as [[Lava Lift|Skull Rafts]], [[Yoshi's Egg]]s, [[Dolphin]]s, and [[Skewer]]s.
'''Mama Luigi''' is the thirteenth and final episode of the ''[[Super Mario World (TV series)|Super Mario World]]'' animated series. Mama Luigi is also the series finale of [[DIC Entertainment]]'s Super Mario animated series trilogy.


==Plot synopsis==
== Plot Synopsis ==
Inside the [[Dome Castle]], Luigi is in the process of putting a somewhat resistant Yoshi to bed. Yoshi, not feeling tired, asks Luigi to tell him a bedtime story — more specifically, the story of how Luigi, Mario, and Princess Toadstool met Yoshi.


Luigi goes on to tell the story: After banishing King Koopa from the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], Mario, Luigi, and Princess Toadstool decided to go on a vacation in [[Dinosaur Land|Dinosaur World]]. While exploring Dinosaur World, they visit [[Dome City]], which is deserted. Looking around, Princess Toadstool is suddenly grabbed by a pair of [[Chargin' Chuck|Koopa football players]]. Mario gets attacked by a [[Magikoopa|Koopa Wizard]], who shoots magic at him. As he runs away, a [[Bomber Bill|Magnum Bill]] flies after him, causing Mario to run away in a different direction. Luigi faces a [[Sumo Bro|Fire Sumo]], which stomps the ground, causing a fissure that Luigi falls into.

Luigi goes on to say tell the story; After banishing [[Bowser|The Koopa King]] from the [[Mushroom Kingdom]], Mario, Luigi and Princess Toadstool decided to go on a vacation in [[Dinosaur Land|Dinosaur World]]. While exploring Dinosaur World, Mario, Luigi and Princess Toadstool visit [[Dome City]], which is oddly deserted. Looking around, Princess Toadstool is suddenly grabbed by a pair of [[Chargin' Chuck|Koopa Football Players]]. Before Mario or Luigi could save the Princess, they are attacked by a gang of enemies, consisting of a [[Magikoopa|Koopa Wizard]], [[Banzai Bill|Magnum Bill]] and [[Sumo Bro.|Fire Sumo]].
Luigi is sent plummeting into the [[Lava Pits (Super Mario World television series)|Lava Pits]], where he apparently fell "for hours." Yoshi comments that hours are a long time, and Luigi responds that it felt that long to him. Seeing nothing but [[lava]] below him, Luigi begins to panic. He lands on a [[Power Balloon|magic balloon]], which temporarily turns him into [[Balloon Mario|Balloon Luigi]], until he turns back into his regular form. He yells before falling on a [[Lava Lift|Skull Raft]]. Yoshi comments on how "skulls mean bad medicine," and Luigi responds that the skulls were good medicine for him. The Skull Raft heads towards a nearby waterfall of lava. Out of panic, Luigi jumps off and falls onto a small portion of land with several [[? Block]]s on it. Luigi hits two nearby ? Blocks. While two blocks spray out [[coin]]s, the third block releases a [[Yoshi egg|red-spotted egg]]. The egg falls off the Block, and Luigi catches the egg, which then hatches, producing a small green [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshisaur]]. Yoshi proceeds to refer to Luigi as "mama," to Luigi's surprise. The scene then cuts to the present, where Yoshi laughs at how Yoshi thought that Luigi was "mama." Luigi, however, did not think it was funny.


Back in the story, wandering the Lava Pits, Yoshi starts crying. Luigi asks Yoshi if he is hungry. Luigi is approached by the [[Evil dinosaur|evil dinosaur]] and a blue one, which surprises Luigi and Yoshi. Luigi hands Yoshi over to the Tyrannosauruses, and Yoshi grabs onto Luigi's legs, yelling, "Mama Luigi!" The evil dinosaur attempts to eat Yoshi, and Luigi quickly pulls him away. The Tyrannosauruses then attempt to eat both Luigi and Yoshi, who escape by jumping over a river of lava, using a [[Blargg]] as a stepping stone. They both enter a [[Warp Pipe]].
As Mario evades the Koopa Wizard and Magnum Bill, Luigi is attacked by the Fire Sumo, who proceeds to stomp the ground with enough force to tear open a large fissure. Unable to leap out of the way, Luigi accidentally stumbles into this fissure and is sent plummeting into the [[Lava Pits]], where he apparently fell "for hours".


Luigi and Yoshi are dumped into the ocean, where they sink as Yoshi yells. They swim through a nearby tunnel, only to be chased by a recently awakened [[Rip Van Fish]]. Fleeing from the Rip Van Fish, Luigi and Yoshi narrowly avoid a swarm of [[Urchin]]s. Exiting the underwater tunnel, Luigi and Yoshi lose the Rip Van Fish, who had fallen back asleep. While trying to swim to the surface of the water, they are attacked by a [[Blurp]], which Luigi defeats with a stomp. A [[Torpedo Ted]] is fired at Luigi and Yoshi. Trying to escape the Torpedo Ted, Luigi and Yoshi swim onto a [[Dolphin]] in a group, who jump over the Torpedo Ted, bringing them to shore. Once on a beach, Luigi wrings the water from his hat; as he is doing this, though, Yoshi waddles away. Noticing Yoshi has wandered away, Luigi begins to search for him.
Seeing nothing but lava below him, Luigi begins to panic; luckily, Luigi manages to land on a [[P-Balloon|Magic Balloon]], which slows his descent and allows him to land on a [[Skull Raft]]. Unfortunately, this Skull Raft falls down a nearby waterfall of lava, plunging Luigi onto a small portion of land with several [[? Block]]s on it. Looking for an item that could perhaps help him, Luigi hits a nearby ? Block. After spurting out coins, the block does something unexpected, it releases a red-spotted egg. Grabbing this egg, Luigi is is surprised when the egg hatches, producing a small green [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshisaur]], which proceeds to refer to Luigi as "mama".


[[File:Luigi about to become worm food.png|thumb|Several caterpillars surrounding Luigi and Yoshi]]
Wandering the Lava Pits, Luigi feebly attempts to comfort the sobbing baby Yoshi. As he attempt to find out what is wrong with Yoshi, Luigi is approached by a [[T-Rex|purple Tyrannosaurus]] and a blue one. Thinking this pair of T-Rexs to be Yoshi's parents, Luigi hands the panicking Yoshi over to the Tyrannosauruses, only to quickly pull Yoshi away when the purple Tyrannosaurus attempts to eat him. The Tyrannosauruses, angered, try to eat both Luigi and Yoshi, who narrowly escape by jumping over a river of lava, using a [[Blargg]] as a stepping-stone.
As Yoshi is admiring some flowers, a [[Wiggler|caterpillar]] walks towards him. Luigi jumps on the caterpillar and picks up Yoshi. The caterpillar growls at them and walks towards them, and it is joined by multiple others. Luigi loudly calls out for help from Mario. The scene cuts back to the present, where Yoshi comments on how he loves caterpillars. Luigi asks, "Hey, who's telling this story?" as the scene cuts back to the past. Yoshi eats all the caterpillars, defeating them.


Mario runs in, having heard his brother's cries for help. He is quickly eaten by Yoshi. Panicking, Luigi convinces Yoshi that Mario is not an enemy, and Yoshi spits him out. Luigi and Mario clean off the saliva on Mario. After Luigi tells Mario not to mess with Yoshi, Yoshi proceeds to leap into Luigi's arms and lick his face, calling him "mama" again, much to Mario's amusement. After he is finished laughing, Mario tells Luigi that he had escaped King Koopa's "[[Bowser's Castle|Coney Island Disco Palace]]" but was unable to aid the princess in escaping as well. Reaching the castle, Mario leads the others in through a nearby Warp Pipe, which takes them to the dark basement of Neon Castle. Mario asks Luigi to hit a ? Block to turn on the lights. Luigi gives Yoshi to Mario and jumps at the ? Block, but he misses. Luigi asks for a boost, so Mario puts Yoshi on the ground and lifts Luigi up as Luigi jumps off Mario, giving him enough height to hit the ? Block, which activates a spotlight over them as Luigi falls on top of Mario. Yoshi wanders off as Mario and Luigi work on turning on the light.
Entering a Warp Pipe, Luigi and Yoshi find themselves dumped into the ocean. Underwater, Luigi and Yoshi begin swimming through a nearby tunnel, only to be chased by a recently awakened [[Rip Van Fish]]. Fleeing from the angered Rip Van Fish through the tunnel, Luigi and Yoshi narrowly avoid a swarm of [[Urchin]]s. Exiting the underwater tunnel, Luigi and Yoshi lose the Rip Van Fish, who had fallen back to sleep. While trying to swim to the surface of the water, Luigi and Yoshi are attacked by a large, [[Wikipedia: Piranha|Piranha]]-like fish and a [[Torpedo Ted]]. Trying to escape this Torpedo Ted, Luigi and Yoshi are aided by several friendly [[Dolphin]]s, who swim the two to shore. Once on a beach, Luigi begins to rinse the water from his hat, as Luigi is doing this though, the curious Yoshi waddles away. Realizing Yoshi has wandered away, Luigi begins to search for him.


[[File:Luigi and Yoshi in the Spike Chamber.png|thumb|left|Luigi and Yoshi in a hallway]]
Admiring some flowers, Yoshi fails to realize that a hungry [[Wiggler|Caterpillar]] is preparing to lunge at him. Jumping-in just in time, Luigi manages to save Yoshi, only to be besieged by a swarm of Caterpillars moments later. Oblivious to the danger present, Yoshi begins to complain he's hungry while Luigi yells for help. Suddenly Yoshi, unable to hold back his appetite, begins to slurp-up all the Caterpillars, defeating them, much to Luigi's relief.
Tracking Yoshi down, Mario and Luigi find him near a [[fireball]]-belching [[Bowser Statue]]. As Mario and Luigi attempt to dodge the fireballs, Yoshi eats them and manages to shut down the statue by spitting fire on it. After he destroys the statue, a secret passageway opens, which Yoshi ventures down as Mario and Luigi follow him. Yoshi nonchalantly walks down a hallway, unaware of the large [[Skewer]]s shooting out of the ceiling. Pushing Yoshi out of the way of a spike, Luigi gets flattened. As Yoshi runs off, Mario grabs the paper-thin Luigi and manages to return him to normal using a nearby magic balloon. They then continue chasing Yoshi, who leaps through the [[flip panel (Chain-Link)|gate]] of a [[Chain-Link|fence]] and opens a nearby door, meeting a Koopa football player.


Quickly climbing over the fence, Mario bashes the football player on the head, only for it to split into three. Tackling Mario and knocking him into Luigi, making them roll into a ball, the Koopa football players are all eaten at once and subsequently spat out by Yoshi, who enters Bowser's throne room. Following Yoshi, who eats a piece of tapestry on the wall, into King Koopa's personal chambers, Mario and Luigi are attacked by a gang of [[Mechakoopa]]s, who are directed by King Koopa from behind a pillar. While running from the Mechakoopas, Mario and Luigi discover that Yoshi has eaten everything in King Koopa's throne room. Koopa enters and, angered at them for his throne room being ruined, orders the Mechakoopas to attack them. However, they are saved by Yoshi, who eats the Mechakoopas. Seeing how much Yoshi has eaten, Mario warns King Koopa, saying that if he does not hand over Princess Toadstool, Yoshi is going to eat all of Neon Castle "piece by piece."
Suddenly, Mario appears, having heard his brothers cries for help. Mistaking Yoshi for a dangerous beast, Mario lunges at him, only to be quickly eaten by Yoshi. A panicking Luigi manages to convince Yoshi to spit Mario out, Yoshi proceeds to do so, regurgitating a slobber-covered Mario. After telling Mario Yoshi is a friend, Yoshi proceeds to leap into Luigi's arms, calling Luigi "mama", much to Mario's amusement.


[[File:KingKoopaWiththeKey.png|thumb|King Koopa holding the key]]
After he is finished laughing, Mario tells Luigi that he has only just escaped Bowser's [[Bowser's Castle|Coney Island Disco Palace]], but was unable to aid the Princess in escaping as well. After some traveling, Mario, Yoshi and Luigi manage to reach Bowser's Neon Castle, which is guarded by a [[Big Boo]] and several [[Gray Bowser Statue]]s. Luckily, Mario, Luigi and Yoshi manage to pass these guards using a nearby Warp Tube, which leads into the basement of Neon Castle. Entering the dark basement, Mario and Luigi, working together, manage to hit a ? Block which floods the area in light. Unfortunately, Yoshi wonders-off while Mario and Luigi had worked on turning on the light.
King Koopa states that he can build another castle, but Mario and Luigi cannot build another princess, and he is unfazed by their threat due to them being unable to gain the [[key]] needed to release Princess Toadstool. Just then, Yoshi eats it out of his hand. Without the key, King Koopa vows revenge and flees into a nearby Warp Pipe. Praising Yoshi, Luigi quickly asks him if he can spit out the key, which he does, right into a nearby [[keyhole]]. Once the key enters the keyhole, Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, and Princess Toadstool are suddenly transported to Dome City, safe and sound. Princess Toadstool gives Yoshi a big hug.


Having finished his story, Luigi notices Yoshi has fallen asleep. Tucking Yoshi in, Luigi says goodnight to him, with Yoshi mumbling, "Goodnight, Mama Luigi...hehe." Luigi then shrugs.
Tracking Yoshi down, Mario and Luigi find Yoshi near a [[fireball]]-belching Gray Bowser Statue. As Mario and Luigi attempt to dodge the fireballs launched by the Gray Bowser Statue, Yoshi eats them and manages to shut-down the statue by breathing fire on it. After destroying the Gray Bowser Statue, a secret passageway opens, which Yoshi ventures down, with Mario and Luigi following him.

Entering a hallway, Yoshi nonchalantly walks down it, unaware of the large spikes shooting out of the ceiling. Pushing Yoshi out of the way of a flat-bottomed spike, Luigi becomes flattened. As Yoshi runs-off, Mario grabs the paper thin Luigi and manages to return him to normal using a nearby Magic Balloon. With Luigi returned to normal, Mario and him begin chasing Yoshi, who has leaped through the gate of a fence and is about to be attacked by a Koopa Football Player.

==Profiles==
* Instead of having green spots on it, like in the ''[[Super Mario World]]'' game, Yoshi's egg has red spots on it. Additionally, in the game, a [[Baby Yoshi]] must be fed five enemies to mature; Yoshi is shown eating five Caterpillars, four Mecha-Koopas, and various decorations and furiture in Koopa's throne room yet remains small in size. He also slurped up and spat out Mario, two fire balls, three Koopa Football Players, and Koopa's key.
*'''[[Yoshi the Superstar]]''' DVD: ''In a flashback, [[Luigi]] tells [[Yoshi]] how Luigi rescued Yoshi as an [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]], how [[Baby Yoshi]] thought Luigi was his mother, and how Baby Yoshi helped Luigi and [[Mario]] rescue [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] from [[Bowser|King Koopa]] and became their permanent ally.''
* "Mama Luigi" can be seen as an adaptation of ''Super Mario World''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s storyline, though the episode is lacking the game's climactic final battle, which had earlier been adapted in the episode "[[Send in the Clown]]".
 
* The purple dinosaur that Luigi encounters in the underground lava pit also appears in "[[Party Line]]."
==Deleted and trimmed scenes==
*In the original ''Super Mario World'', [[Chargin' Chuck]] could not fit into Yoshi's mouth; however, in this episode, Yoshi can swallow the Chargin' Chuck into his mouth.
There are several animation cels and sketches for the episode that have been found and sold online that do not go to any scene of the episode and some cut from certain scenes. In the episode when Luigi is walking and asks Baby Yoshi if he is hungry, there is a strange cut off during the scene and it transitions to the dinosaurs walking up to him while Baby Yoshi is still talking. The animation cel has a scene code of "107A-53" on it, meaning that is the 53rd scene in the episode. When the dinosaurs appear on screen, the scene numbers of those are 107A-63 - this is known because of the scene of Luigi holding Baby Yoshi - and turning around is 107A-64, meaning that eight scenes of animation are missing from the episode.<ref>Discovered by max6464646464 on [https://twitter.com/max6464646464/status/911744228975398912?lang=en Twitter] September 23, 2017.</ref>
*Strangely, Luigi and the dinosaur call Yoshi ''Yoshisaur'', apparently a scientific name for [[Yoshi (species)|his species]].
*All the cels that have backgrounds are either not original, not from the cartoon or not from the same scene/episode.
*In this episode, wigglers are called caterpillars, however wigglers are based on worms.
*Unused cels from the deleted scenes.
*Baby Yoshis normally have shoes when they hatch, but Yoshi has no shoes.

==Cultural impact==
{{Quote|I was totally unaware of Mama Luigi's cult status. It’s like winning the lottery but no one told you.|Phil Harnage}}
 
Several lines from this episode, including the line "That's Mama Luigi to you, Mario!", have become an [[List of references on the Internet|Internet meme]], even to the point of "Mama Luigi" being seen as a separate character from the normal Luigi. The line was inspired by an argument writer [[Phil Harnage]] had with the show's producer.<ref name=Faninterview/>
 
<blockquote>I was having an argument with one of the P<!--sic-->roducers about something they left out of the storyboard that was in the script, and he accused me of being OCD. So I said, “That’s Mister OCD to you, bud.” He cracked up. Having gotten a laugh, first opportunity I had I used it in a script.</blockquote>
 
When writer Phil Harnage was asked in a fan interview about the episode's popularity, he replied saying he was unaware of it.<ref name=Faninterview>The Pope (May 25, 2011).
