Meeting Mario and Luigi in their apartment, Alligator Dundee, after telling the two about the creature he is chasing, enlists their aid in helping him capture it.
As Luigi searches for the monster through a periscope, Alligator Dundee and Mario prepare a net. Having finished preparations, he tells the Mario Bros. the plan to capture the monster, which involves luring it out of the sewers, then Mario throwing his net over it and Luigi tying it up with a rope.

However, instead of the Ratagator, Mario and Luigi capture Alligator Dundee in their net as he flees from the sewers. They only realize that they have captured him after he has already been knocked to the ground. As Alligator Dundee struggles in the net, Mario and Luigi tell him that the Ratagator is their pet and that he should not have been trying to harm it. Hearing this, he apologizes to the Mario Bros. for trying to capture the Ratagator and explains that if Mario and Luigi had only told him the Ratagator was their pet, he would not have continued his hunt for it.
