Nana is found in [[Nana's Room]] in the third area of the mansion. When Luigi enters the room he sees Nana knitting a scarf and after knocking her nearby yarn balls onto the floor will provoke her into floating around the room on her rocking chair. Luigi must suck up the three yarn balls and hit Nana with them, all the while avoiding her needle eye beams, to expose her heart to attack. If Luigi misses a single shot, however, she escapes with a cackle, and he must leave Nana's Room and come back in to do the whole thing all over again.
