A Third Thief Brings Grief! is the fourth episode of Wario: Master of Disguise. It takes place in Sneezemore Cave.

Plot
When Wario arrives at the cave, he drops down a large pit. He begins his search for the "guy in a suit" the Sphinx mentioned in the previous episode, assuming that the person in question is Count Cannoli. However, once Wario is gone, a nearby snowman reveals itself to be Cannoli in disguise, who is also searching for the "guy in a suit" and by extension, the Wishstone piece.

Shortly after exploring the cave for a bit, Wario meets Carpaccio. He mistakes Wario for Cannoli, who is quick to correct him. Carpaccio apologizes for all the traps he set in the museum, which were intended for Cannoli. Wario then realizes that Carpaccio is the person Wario is looking for, not Cannoli. However, Carpaccio blocks the path to him with four stone doors, telling Wario to look him up when he's "tired of being a loser." Goodstyle notes the bird statues next to the doors, but this only angers and frustrates Wario. Cannoli appears and offers to tell him how to open the doors in exchange for Goodstyle, but Wario refuses.

Wario searches the cave for a method of opening the doors and finds four bird-shaped crystals. On the way, he acquires the Dragon Wario disguise, as well as an upgrade for Arty Wario. Wario uses the crystals to open the doors, and Cannoli shows up again, amazed that Wario was able to figure out how to open them. Wario then recloses the doors, leaving Cannoli behind.

Wario confronts Carpaccio, who has the next Wishstone tablet, in the next room. Carpaccio notices Goodstyle and once again mistakes him for Cannoli. He introduces himself as the head of Sigil Securities, but Wario doesn't care and simply wants the Wishstone piece. Carpaccio transforms into Head Honcho Carpaccio and swallows Wario whole, however, Wario is able to defeat him from the inside. Carpaccio realizes that Wario is not Cannoli and leaves, allowing Wario to get his second Wishstone piece.

The text on the Wishstone piece was: ...the wishes were...bargained for...the Pharaoh's dreams...made real...his dynasty preserved forever...the Pharaoh forever...in his palace...palace turned into a pyramid...pyramid buried under the sand...and one piece of the stone..buried alongside him...

Goodstyle uses this to deduce that the next Wishstone piece is likely buried alongside the Pharaoh in his pyramid.

Layout
The episode begins at the entrance to the cave. Upon entering, Wario will drop down a large pit. A red treasure chest containing the Majestic Heart-Shaped Straw is at the end of a hidden passage to the right. To the left, Wario will encounter the first enemy of the episode, a Mr. Cheeky. Right next to it is a moneybag. Further to the left is a large room with a purple chest where the cave's map can be found. If Wario continues further to the left, he will meet Carpaccio, who will block the path with four stone doors. Four bird-shaped crystals must be found to open them. There is a door on the upper right which leads to an area where Wario can climb a ladder to find a moneybag and a green chest. The chest contains the Dragon Guise Gem. Wario can now turn into Dragon Wario, who can breathe fire. He can use this new ability to destroy fiery red blocks and reach a nearby moneybag. Dragon Wario also falls through Semi-Solid Platforms, which can be used to find a Hat Switch on the bottom right corner. Near the green chest is a door which leads to a room with a lot of dripping icy water and a breakable floor over a pool of water. In the water is a chest holding the Jurassic Snot, but it cannot be reached without Captain Wario's upgrade. There are a Snow Globe and a Mr. Cheeky in here, and at the top of the room is a large heart and the purple chest containing the Red Crystal.
