Mario and Luigi are cleaning a clogged sewer underneath a fortune-teller's store in [[Brooklyn]] when they are accidentally sucked into a [[Warp Zone]] and taken to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]].

Later, the Mario Brothers are seen repairing [[Peach's Castle|the palace]]'s pipes while King Koopa travels down the corridor, intending to kidnap Toadstool. Mario, who is out of [[mushroom]]s for his "mushroom-and-jelly sandwiches," travels farther along the passageway, but after finding fresh ones growing in the area, he witnesses Koopa. Mario decides to take action and swallows a mushroom, knowing it is a [[Super Mushroom|Red Mushroom]]. He chases Koopa and his underlings off in his giant form, but Koopa uses magic to shrink him and tangle him in pipes.

After Luigi untangles Mario from the pipes, the brothers try to flee from the [[Koopa Troop]] in hope of warning Toadstool about the oncoming minions, but the brothers instead fall into a deep pit beneath the floor. Meanwhile, Koopa and another squadron of Koopa Troopas invade the princess's throne room, ambush her and [[Toad (species)|her royal guards]], and throw her into the pit with the Mario Brothers. | ||
After Koopa locks the exit, the Mario Brothers ponder what to do to escape, since their power-ups are useless. However, when Toadstool suggests they cooperate to escape the pit, Mario grows larger by polishing off his final Red Mushroom, allowing him to reach the top of the pit. Luigi, while standing on Mario's palm, sprays the remaining fire in his Fire Flower to burn down the locked door. After the Mario Brothers and Toadstool escape, Luigi drives off Koopa and his underlings by opening a water pipe. Mario, Luigi, and Toadstool then return to the castle to celebrate their victory. The book ends with Mario complaining that he has no mushrooms left for his "mushroom-and-jelly-sandwiches" and Luigi quipping, "I'd face a hundred other dark and perilous pits, but I'd hate to see what's down in the pit of Mario's stomach!" | After Koopa locks the exit, the Mario Brothers ponder what to do to escape, since their power-ups are useless.
