[[Mario]] receives the Ruby Star after [[Vivian]] joins his team to help him get his name, appearance, and teammates back. Together, they confront Doopliss (who is disguised as Mario) and an epic battle ensues. Ultimately, Vivian and the real Mario defeat the doppleganger and recover the Ruby Star.
