"Baby Mario Love" is the twenty-sixth live-action segment of The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! Its corresponding animated episode is "Koopenstein." This is the only live-action segment to feature a cover song; unlike other cover songs, it was not edited out in reruns, presumably because the segment centering around the song would not make sense without it.
Plot synopsis[edit]
In Mario Brothers Plumbing, Mario is in the middle of telling the Ratagator, who is holding a leash in its jaw, that he just took it for a crawl a little while ago, and will not take it for another one. After telling the Ratagator this, Mario begins to talk to Luigi, who is near the entrance of the apartment cleaning portraits on the wall, saying that their lives are dull and lack glamor, glitz and a certain "je ne sais pas". Hearing this, Luigi tells Mario to watch his language, saying that the Ratagator is present, and also goes on to say to that he should not worry, as he never knows when glamor will come knocking on the door. Just as Luigi says this, a knock at the door can be heard; opening the apartment door, Luigi nonchalantly exclaims that the queen of glitz and glamor, Susanna Ross, is there before slamming the door closed.
As he walks away from the door, Luigi suddenly realizes what he has done and quickly re-opens the door and apologizes to Susanna, who had her nose banged by the closing door. After apologizing to Susanna, Luigi greets her, a greeting which Susanna returns and extends it to Mario. After the greetings are done, Susanna asks Mario and Luigi if they remember when they fixed her plumbing, which Mario and Luigi do remember, and goes on to remind Mario and Luigi that they promised they would be there for her in an emergency. Pulling her suitcase into the apartment, Susanna exclaims that she has an emergency while proceeding to drag her suitcase down the staircase and into the apartment. Setting her suitcase on the ground, Susanna states that her other band members missed their flights and, as she places wigs on Mario and Luigi's heads, asks if they can sing. Replying that they can, Mario and Luigi start to sing quite terribly and are promptly stopped by Susanna, who loudly yells that Mario and Luigi can simply fake their singing.
Later, Mario and Luigi begin to get into the costumes and dresses Susanna has given, behind a curtain; unfortunately, Mario and Luigi are having some trouble getting their outfits on, with Mario trying to fit the dress over his overalls and Luigi putting his on backwards, while complaining he feels like the Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Asking Susanna what she thinks of their outfits, Mario and Luigi get the response from Susanna that she thinks her career is over, which Luigi retaliates to by saying he thinks he looks very nifty.
