[edit] The Ten Koopmandments (Plot Synopsis)
In the beginning of the episode, Mario introduces the episode as Plumber's Log number 1000 B.C. as he and his friends ride up to The Ten Koopmandments on their camels. After reading them, they head to a nearby Mushroom village, where they meet The Three Mushrooms, who tell the them how King Koopa turned all the Mushroom people into bricks and was building his Koopsphinx.
Meanwhile, at Koopa's building site, Koopa is informed by Mouser that they are fresh out of bricks, and that there are still some mushroom people in the mushroom village. Koopa then rounds up the Koopa Pack and heads towards the mushroom village, where Mario and co., along with The Three Mushrooms, hide in an attempt to ambush the Koopa Pack. However, this plan backfires as The Three Mushrooms accidentally attack the Mario gang. Koopa catches them and turns The Three Mushrooms into bricks. He then brings Mario and company to a pyramid, where he traps them inside. In moments, the gang is chased by a Goomba Mummy; then they're attacked by a Cobrat and a Phanto. They're trapped between the Goomba Mummy and the Phanto when the gang finds an emergency exit to escape from the pyramid.
After escaping, Mario and friends steal Koopa's magic staff from him while he's sleeping, and turn the sphinxes back into the Mushroom people. The gang escapes across the desert to the Red Sauce Sea. When Koopa finds out about this, he gets the Koopa Pack to go after them, but by the time they get there, Mario and the crew have made it across the Red Sauce Sea by using the Magic Scepter to split it in half. Once they're across, they close the sea up behind them before Koopa and the Koopa Pack can get out. This is the ultimate defeat of King Koopa...for now.
