History
Super Mario Bros. film
Sergeant Simon is first introduced in the Super Mario Bros. film when Mario and Luigi are initially arrested and brought in to the precinct. There, he questions the brothers on their names and is confused by their last names being "Mario". He is present for the brothers' interrogation with President Koopa and stuns Mario with a stun stick before leading the brothers to the Devo Chamber. There, he is punched to the floor by Mario during the brothers' escape from the room. Throughout the film, he communicates with Koopa through video chat and towards the film's conclusion, confiscates the meteorite piece from Lena and hands it to Koopa. His last notable moment is warning Koopa through walkie talkie that the Goombas are dancing.
