"'''Send in the Clown'''" is the third episode of the ''[[Super Mario World (television series)|Super Mario World]]'' animated series. This episode is notable for being the last episode where [[Wendy|Kootie Pie]] appears, as well as the only episode where [[Dino Rhino]]s, [[Spinner|Ball 'N' Chains]], [[Metal ball|Big Steelies]], and the [[Koopa Clown Car]] appear.


==Plot synopsis==
'''Send in the Clown''' is the third episode of the ''[[Super Mario World (television series)|Super Mario World]]'' animated series.
Outside in a field, [[Mario]] and [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] are in the middle of a tennis match, using [[fireball]]s from a nearby [[Volcano Lotus|Fire Plant]] as balls. As Princess Toadstool scores a point against Mario, she is congratulated by [[Luigi]], who is acting as the game's scorekeeper. Princess Toadstool than proceeds to hit another fireball to Mario; before Mario can hit the ball though, [[Yoshi]], the game's ballboy, gobbles it up.

== Plot ==
Mario proceeds to scold Yoshi for eating the ball, saying he is not supposed to eat them, he is supposed to catch them only when they are out of bounds. As Yoshi calls tennis "un-fun," the scene zooms out and shows [[Wendy|Kootie Pie Koopa]] and [[Morton|Big Mouth Koopa]] putting-up posters for the "[[Koopalings|Koopaling]] Bros. Circus". As Big Mouth begins to ramble and yell at Kootie Pie, the annoyed Koopaling shoves a poster in Big Mouth's face.


As Kootie Pie and Big Mouth continue to put-up posters, [[Bowser|King Koopa]] flies overhead in his [[Koopa Clown Car|Flying Clown Head]] and using a conch shell, begins to make announcements about how the cave-people can visit the Koopaling Bros. Circus for free. The cave-people follow Koopa to a [[Warp Pipe|Warp Tube]] which leads to "the circus". As the cave-people enter the pipe, Koopa snickers to himself, saying that he hopes his dinosaurs enjoy a "cave-people casserole".

Princess Toadstool than proceeds to hit another fireball to Mario; before Mario can hit the ball though, [[Yoshi]], the game's ballboy, gobbles it up.


Mario and Princess Peach are still playing tennis, with Princess Toadstool winning. As the Fire Plant launches another ball, Mario makes a futile attempt to chase it, with Yoshi running after him. Mario and Yoshi end-up tumbling into one another. As Mario is helped up by Luigi and Princess Toadstool, he notices that all the cave-people are missing. As Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool and Yoshi look around, Luigi notices a Koopaling Bros. Circus and panickingly states, "Oh no! Koopa's at it again!"
Mario proceeds to scold Yoshi for eating the ball, saying he is not supposed to eat them, he is supposed to catch them and only when they are out of bounds. As Yoshi calls tennis "un-fun" the scene zooms out and shows [[Wendy O. Koopa#DIC Cartoons|Kootie Pie Koopa]] and [[Morton Koopa Jr.#DIC Cartoons|Big Mouth Koopa]] putting-up posters for the "[[Koopalings|Koopaling]] Bros. Circus". As Big Mouth begins to ramble and yell at Kootie Pie, the annoyed Koopaling shoves a poster in Big Mouth's big mouth.


Using the [[Star World|Star Path]], Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool and Yoshi warp to [[Bowser's Castle|Neon Castle]] in search of the cave-people. Entering Neon Castle, the group notice that there really is a circus tent in it. Entering this circus tent, Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool and Yoshi decide to watch the show and see what will happen. After a performance by acrobatic [[Chargin' Chuck|Koopa Football Players]] and tight-rope walking [[Mechakoopa|Mechkoopas]], Big Mouth, the circus' ringmaster, enters and begins an egotistical speech, only to be stopped by Koopa, who has several "clowns" enter.
As Kootie Pie and Big Mouth continue to put-up posters, [[Bowser]] flies overhead in his [[Koopa Clown Car]] and, using a conch shell, begins to make announcements about how the cave-people can visit the Koopaling Bros. Circus for free. The cave-people follow Bowser to a [[Warp Pipe|Warp Tube]] which leads to "the circus". As the cave-people enter the pipe, Bowser snickers to himself, saying that he hopes his dinosaurs enjoy a "cave-people cassarole".


Performing various stunts, these clowns decide to include a rambling Big Mouth in their act, much to his annoyance. After being flung into a pool of green goo, an extremely mad Big Mouth begins to chase the clowns around, much to the amusement of the show's spectators; the only person not laughing is Luigi, who still believes Koopa is up to no good. Mario rebuffs his brother's claims, telling him to just enjoy the show.

Mario and Yoshi end-up tumbling into one another. As Mario is helped up by Luigi and Princess Toadstool, he notices that all the cave-people are missing. As Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool and Yoshi look around, Luigi notices a Koopaling Bros. Circus and panickingly states, "On no! Koopa's at it again!


It is only after an incident involving a pie-throwing machine that the clowns are revealed to be [[Rex]]es. As the crowd of cave-people flee to the exits of the tent, several [[Thwomp]]s cover the doors, trapping everyone inside. Flipping a switch, Koopa and Big Mouth dump everyone in a large cage hidden under the floor.

Mario rebuffs his brother's claims, telling him to just enjoy the show.
As Mario is hanging over the cage, Koopa begins to taunt him and shoves him into the cage. After Mario is in the cage for a brief moment, Koopa grabs him and brings him back-up and, shoving a chair in Mario's arms, he pushes his "dinosaur tamer" in a cage filled with [[Dino Rhino|Dino-Rhino]]s.


After easily destroying Mario's chair, a Dino-Rhino shoves Mario to the ground and, putting on a bib, prepares to eat him. As Luigi and Princess Toadstool mourn Mario's fate, Luigi helps Toadstool remember a [[Fire Flower]] was in the princess' hands. She tosses it to Mario to free him. Using several fireballs, Mario defeats the Dino-Rhino and its [[Dino-Torch]] friends.

Melting the lock on his cage, Mario runs through Neon Castle searching for something he can help his friends with. While searching, Mario is attacked by an armada of enemies such as Koopa Football Players, [[Dry Bones]], [[Bowser Statue]]s, Mechkoopas, and a [[Spinner|Ball 'N' Chain]]. While fleeing, Mario bumps into a block which shoots out a [[Cape Feather|feather]].
[[File:ShouldvebeenWarioFakeMarioShowWorld.jpg|thumb|Mario in a cage with Dino Rhinos.]]
As Mario is hanging-over the cage, Bowser begins to taunt him and shoves the [[plumber]] into the cage. Before Mario hits the floor of the cage, Bowser grabs him and brings him back-up and, shoving a chair in Mario's arms, Bowser pushes his "dinosaur tamer" in a cage filled with [[Dino Rhino]]s.


Grabbing this feather, Mario transforms into [[Cape Mario|Caped Mario]]. Using his new powers, Mario defeats Koopa's minions, flinging them at the Koopa king. Mario then proceeds to chase down Big Mouth, who seeks refuge in the circus tent. Once Big Mouth is in the tent, Mario pulls it down on-top of Big Mouth and Kootie Pie.

As Luigi and Princess Toadstool mourn Mario's fate, the princess, remembering a [[Fire Flower]] she had, tosses it to Mario. Using several fireballs, Mario defeats the Dino Rhino and its [[Dino-Torch]] friends.


Approaching the cage holding his friends, Mario is about to release everyone when Koopa in his [[Koopa Clown Car|Flying Clown Head]] appears. Koopa from his Flying Clown Head calls out to Mario (after calling him a plungerface) that he would not do that if he were Mario; unless Mario wants to see his precious princess again. Holding Princess Toadstool captive, Koopa begins to hurl Mechkoopas and [[Metal ball|Big Steelies]] at Mario. Stomping on a Mechkoopa, Mario hurls it at Koopa, who easily dodges it. He then proceeds to try and crush Mario with the Flying Clown Head.

While fleeing, Mario bumps into a block which shoots out a [[Cape Feather|feather]].

Mario then proceeds to chase down Big Mouth, who seeks refuge in the circus tent. Once Big Mouth is in the tent, Mario pulls it down on-top of Big Mouth and Kootie Pie.
Evading Koopa, Mario (who tells him that he will not do any more clowning around and is being "koo-put") grabs another Mechkoopa and hurls it at the Flying Clown Head. When it smashes into the contraption, Koopa loses control of the Flying Clown Head, dropping Princess Toadstool out of the vehicle. Catching Princess Toadstool, Mario proceeds to release all the captives. After doing this, everyone returns to [[Dome City]].


Back home, Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, and Yoshi have their own circus for the cave-people, with Yoshi as the clown, Princess Toadstool as tight rope artist, Luigi as an ice cream seller, and Mario as the ringmaster and juggler, with Yoshi eating the rocks.
Approaching the cage holding his friends, Mario is about to release everyone when Bowser, in the Koopa Clown Car appears.

Bowser than proceeds to try and crush Mario with the Koopa Clown Car.

*'''[[Koopa's Stone Age Quests]]''' DVD: ''To feed his hungry evil [[Dinosaur|dinosaurs]], [[Bowser|King Koopa]] lures the [[Cave People|cave people]] to a prehistoric circus at the [[Bowser's Castle|Neon Style]] and [[Mario]], [[Luigi]], [[Princess Peach|Princess Toadstool]] and [[Yoshi]] must rescue them. But only Mario escapes King Koopa's diabolical trap. He must battle the [[Koopa Clown Car|flying clown head]] to rescue everyone else from becoming dinosaur snacks.''
* In several portions of the episode, the "L" on Luigi's hat is white on a black background.
* In one shot, the feet of Bowser's Rex minions are green, despite the fact that the dinosaurs are blue.
* The dots on the outsides of the Clown Car's eyes turn from blue to red during the final battle-moments later, they completely disappear.


==Dub edits==
== Trivia ==
*In the original version, before [[Bowser|King Koopa]] drops [[Mario]] into the cage with his friends, he mentions that his [[dinosaur]]s can handle Mario, despite him being high in cholesterol. This is not mentioned in the French, Brazilian Portuguese, or Latin American Spanish dubs.
* The title is a reference to [[wikipedia:Stephen Sondheim|Stephen Sondheim]]'s song [[wikipedia:Send in the Clowns|Send in the Clowns]].
**In the French dub, King Koopa mentions Mario being high in fat instead of high in cholesterol.
* At the end of the episode, when Mario is dressed as a ringmaster, the costume he wears is extremely similar to the one he wears on the cover of ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' a few years later.
*In the Cantonese, Greek, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, and Latin American Spanish dubs, Mario's voice is added when King Koopa taunts him.
* As the cave-people are entering the Warp Tube to the Koopaling Bros. Circus, Koopa says "You are about to enter this Warp Pipe and into a dimension beyond space and time." This is an obvious reference to the [[Wikipedia: The Twilight Zone|The Twilight Zone]].
**Inversely, in the Brazilian Portuguese dub, Mario's voice is absent during the song.
* The name "Koopaling Bros. Circus" is a spoof of [[Wikipedia: Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus|Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus]].
*In the French dub, Mario mentions that the [[Dino-Torch]]'s breath smells worse than a drainpipe. In the original, he speculates that "no one invented mouthwash yet."
* When the stands in the castle flip down, the viewer can see Yoshi holding on with his mouth.
* This episode's final battle is extremely similar to the one in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. As Koopa throws Mechkoopas at Mario, he throws them back, and Koopa attempts to crush him with the Koopa Clown Car.
* Though this is Kootie Pie's last animation appearance, she has no dialogue.

==Trivia==
*[[Bowser|King Koopa]] narrates the preview for this episode by saying, "''Hey kids, the circus is in town! Come one, come all, to King Koopa's big top dinosaur show! We've even got a flying clown head! And if you don't know what that is, you'd better tune in!''"<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2FKFRwlYvFk&list=PLySo2SlSHPSPsMPvx3vXPmReAe05Vro9H&index=3 Super Mario World 403 - Send In The Clowns//Return To Castlevania</ref>
*The name "Koopaling Bros. Circus" is a reference to the real-life {{wp|Ringling Brothers Circus}}.
*[[Mario]]'s scream when jumping over the [[Bowser Statue]] is a reused scream from ''[[The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' episode "[[Recycled Koopa]]" when he and [[Luigi]] are dumped into the [[Warp Pipe]] to [[Brooklyn]]. This scream is not kept in any dub which removes the vocals of "[[List of Super Mario World (television series) songs#At the Circus|At the Circus]]," nor is it present in the Brazilian Portuguese dub, as these dubs either replace the scream with an original scream or remove it entirely.
*This episode's final battle is very similar to the one in ''[[Super Mario World]]''. As Koopa throws [[Mechakoopa]]s at Mario, he throws them back, and Koopa attempts to crush him with the [[Koopa Clown Car]] and drops a [[Metal ball|Big Steely]] on him. However, when the Koopa Clown Car hits Mario, his cape does not disappear.
*The ringleader costume Mario wears at the end of the episode is very similar to the one he wears on the cover of ''[[Super Mario All-Stars]]'' a few years later, which would also become a costume he could wear in ''[[Super Mario Odyssey]]''.
