Broque Madame, Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story

Broque Madame is a Brock character in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, similar to Broque Monsieur. In Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, her house serves as a Brawl Attack Challenge House in Blubble Lake, which is the equivalent of the Cholesteroad inside Bowser. In Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, she runs the Luiginary Attack challenge mode. Her name appears to be a pun on a French sandwich dish called "croque madame".

History[edit]

Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story / Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey[edit]

Bowser meeting Broque Madame for the first time.
Broque Madame talking to Bowser.

Bowser comes across Broque Madame's house in Blubble Lake, and when he enters she asks for a massage to soothe her aching back. This is accomplished by Bowser using his Brawl Attacks on her, Shy Guy Squad and Broggy Bonker excluded. Bowser must keep his Brawl Attacks going for as long as possible without failing. If Bowser does well enough, Broque Madame rewards him with coins and equipment. Bowser's score is saved if he gets the high score. However, Broque Madame only saves the score for the minigame, so Bowser must still save at a Save Block for the game to be saved, as Broque Madame warns him.

If Mario and Luigi visit Broque Madame, she immediately regards them to be weak but politely asks them to return to talk with her again as she is lonely, and to also request a "burly" guy (Bowser) to come to her house for a massage. If they do return to talk with her, she tells them stories. These stories include topics such as the Shroob Invasion and the fact that someone (Bowser) kept some of them, a reference to the cold storage in Bowser's Castle. She also says that if they have a special one that they need to care for them, because she once had her own special person that gave her up for blocks. She also mentions Kuzzle, who used to come to the lake, but now no longer does so ever since Bowser took his Star Cure.

Broque Madame also appears in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story + Bowser Jr.'s Journey, where she makes an appearance in the Bowser Jr.'s Journey mode as a boss. She is a flying enemy and her Special Skill is Smack Back Attack. She is battled in Broque Madame's Handiwork after Bowser Jr. and Kamek go to her to make the Skeletone Formula:D, as she asks them to give her a massage. She is weak against Ice Bros., as she is soothed by the ice that they throw. Like an enemy infected with Malatone Formula:X, her special skill, Smack Back Attack, cannot be denied; only Stop and Drop can stop it. After the battle, she creates 200 servings of Skeletone Formula:D. She is battled a second time during Broque Madame's Secret; this time, she must be defeated before four allies get defeated. She is battled once more in A Mighty Melee during the second and third rounds. The second round works the same as in Broque Madame's Secret, except there are several Bandits and Bob-ombs as troops. In the third round, she is the First officer and fights alongside King Bob-omb, and this time her special skills can be denied.

Mario & Luigi: Dream Team[edit]

Broque Madame talking to the brothers.

Broque Madame reappears in Mario & Luigi: Dream Team. She owns Rose Broquet, a shop in Driftwood Shore. Broque Madame stays in the back most room for most of the game, though she is referenced as going to other places offscreen.

When Mario and Luigi first meet Broque Madame, she is harboring Princess Peach (later revealed to be Kamek in disguise) and Toadsworth so that they can hide from Bowser. Both of them are disguised as Brocks are jumping on her back to massage her. She suggests that the Mario Bros hide Peach in the Dream World by using a Dreampoint.

Later on, she went to the beach and stumbled across the Old Lithograph. When the Bros return to Driftwood Shore to find the Driftwood Jellyfish Sheets, she gives them the lithograph as a clue to their location.

Kylie Koopa's photo puzzle of Driftwood Shore depicts Broque Madame on the beach with a number of other characters.

A Dream World version of Broque Madame appears in Dreamy Driftwood Shore, where she runs a shop named "Broque Madame's.". It has similar visual cues to Rose Broquet.

Battle Broque Madame[edit]

Broque Madame suggests that the Mario Bros. enter her dreams due to her boredom at her shop and her craving for excitement. This takes the form of a set of minigames based on the Luiginary Attacks. This is similar to the Mad Skillathon, and is reminiscent of Madame Broque's role as the version of the Cholesteroad for Bowser's Brawl Attacks in the previous game.

In each game, Mario & Dreamy Luigi repeatedly use the specified Luiginary Attack. In the Luiginary Ball and Luiginary Wall games, points are earned for defeating small versions of Broque Madame, with bonuses available for defeating the large Broque Madame. In the Luiginary Stack and Luiginary Flame games, points are earned for correct execution of each step of the attack, and hitting Broque Madame grants a bonus.

These are the list of rewards gained from hitting the B, A or S rank scores, them respectively being 200 for B, rewarded by 100 coins, 500 for A, rewarded by 300 coins, and 800 for S, rewarded by an exclusive piece of gear. If 999 points is reached, the minigame automatically stops. After getting S rank in all four challenges, the player is awarded with the Excellent Boots.

Luiginary Attack Challenge Description S-Rank Prize (800)
Luiginary Ball Bowl over the small Madames, and then crash into the big Madame! Coin Boots DX
Luiginary Stack Stack the Luiginoids, and jump on the Broque Madame. Avoid the hazards! Sap Hammer DX
Luiginary Flame Bounce the flames back, and then use your hammer to hit the last one! Blunt Hammer DX
Luiginary Wall Hit all of the small Madames back! Hitting items will affect play. Lucky Gloves DX

Trivia[edit]

  • In the Italian version, Broque Monsieur speaks with a French accent while Broque Madame does not.
  • There is a recurring mistake in Broque Madame's speech. Instead of saying "chéri" and "chéris", which are French for "dear", she often says "cherí" and "cherís". The accent is in the wrong place.
