Plot Synopsis
In Mario Brothers Plumbing, Mario is putting on some shaving cream while looking at the mirror, and a sound is heard, actually a verbal rendition of a drum pattern. He then opens the mirror to pick the razor he kept inside, but instead of another internal mirror there's a window showing another person about to shave too. They both start shaving, apparently thinking to be looking at their own reflection, since they do the excact same movements, despite looking very differently.
Mario then asks Luigi, who's petting the Ratigator out of a vent, if he changed the mirror, but he responds that can't hear him because of a noise coming out of the vent and he's afraid it's going to explode. Once Mario asks what sound Luigi's referring to, the drum pattern voice is heard again two times, as the Ratigator seem to sing along with it. Luigi tells the Ratigator to stop it, but Mario responds that it doesn't seem to come from the creature, so Luigi closes the Ratigator's vent, walks toward Clog and covers it with a bucket. Mario says that it's not even Clog, so Luigi says it may be the scarecrow, but it responds not to be the one. Mario returns to the mirror and both him and the man in the reflection are surprised to realize they're not looking at a mirror, to which the man replies that to be the weirdest hotel room he's ever seen, having a television built in the mirror, and then sings the drum pattern song the brothers were hearing earlier. Hearing it from him, Mario recognizes the man as Little Robert.
Later, the table is set for three people and Luigi tries to hide a tape recorder in a dish of spaghetti, but ther changes idea and hides it under the bread. Mario comes in saying that Little Robert would be there soon, and asks Luigi what is he doing, and he explains that he's hiding the tape recorder so that if they get Little Roberts to sing with them and get it on tape, they would have a collector's item. Mario replies that Little Robert is only coming to eat italian, not to sing, but Luigi insists saying Mario to use his brain. As they're still talking the dorrbell rings, so Mario says Litlle Robert to come in and greets him imitating his voice. After the first greetings, Mario presents Luigi to Little Robert, who then invites him to reach the dinner table, but before starting eating Little Roberts begins his song, with Mario and Luigi singing along, though he's unimpressed by their poor performance.
Little Roberts is then singning "Tutti Frutti", with Mario and Luigi dancing and responding "oh, Mario", but once again Little Roberts seem unsatisfied by their performance. Mario asks what does he think and he responds that their "Oh, Mario" was great, but they're a little weak, and to describe the energy they should put in the singing he just sings his drum pattern cry. Luigi then asks for little tips to help them out, and Mario says he hops Robert to not consider an imposition their behaviour. Little Robert, starting to get upset, asks to just eat, so Mario says that of course he can, but as the singer is about to sit at the table, where meanwhile the brothers hid an electric piano under the dish of spaghetti, Mario instead tells him to take the pan with him. To this Little Roberts gets angry, saying that they invited him for dinner, then made him sing his song and now want him to take his food "to go", so after staring at Mario a moment, he takes the pan and goes away, as Luigi thanks Little Robert for coming over. After Little Robert is gone away, Luigi tells Mario to hear what they've recorded on tape, but they then find the Ratigator sining the drum pattern with the chewing the tape.
