'''Super Mario Bros. Plumbing''', also known as '''Mario Brothers Plumbing''' (sometimes stylized as '''Mario Bros. Plumbing''') | '''Super Mario Bros. Plumbing''', also known as '''Mario Brothers Plumbing''' (sometimes stylized as '''Mario Bros. Plumbing''') is the plumbing business owned by [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]], which is featured in various [[List of television series and films|cartoons]], the 1993 [[Super Mario Bros. (film)|''Super Mario Bros.'' film]], and 2023's ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Movie]]''. It is located in [[Brooklyn]], in the neighborhood of [[Flatbush]]. | ||
In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', | In ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'', it is located on the basement floor of an old apartment building; Mario and Luigi have succeeded in not only using the place as a workshop, but as their place of residence as well. As the basement is not a proper apartment, the brothers have learned to adapt to their surroundings, including the building's sneezing furnace and the garbage chute. Since the building is located next to the closed-off entrance of a subway station, anyone in the basement can feel the rumble of an incoming train. | ||

As mentioned, the old apartment also has a furnace which seems to have a life of its own (it sneezes) and it also has a Pizza phone (originally a normal phone, but due to an accident, the pizza and the phone got mixed together), a periscope apparently able to see from Brooklyn even all the way to the [[Eiffel Tower]] in France, and a garden being grown in a bathtub with a living scarecrow. | As mentioned, the old apartment also has a furnace which seems to have a life of its own (it sneezes) and it also has a Pizza phone (originally a normal phone, but due to an accident, the pizza and the phone got mixed together), a periscope apparently able to see from Brooklyn even all the way to the [[Eiffel Tower]] in France, and a garden being grown in a bathtub with a living scarecrow. | ||

Early in the film, Mario is seen taking a phone call in his home office regarding a problem at the Riverfront Cafe. Mario begins gathering the tools necessary for the job, and through conversation with Luigi, it is revealed their business has been tapering and they have been having financial issues. Luigi takes the wheel of the car, driving sporadically and taking shortcuts, which upsets Mario. Upon arriving at the Riverfront Cafe, Mario's anger is furthered when he discovers their competitor, [[Scapelli Construction]] owned by [[Anthony Scapelli]], beat them to the job.
