Junior is an out-of-control brat; [[Junior's mom and dad|his mom and dad]] might actually fear him, as they talk kindly towards him, but cannot stand being around him for long. Junior's family also has a [[Kitty|pet cat]], but it appears to have been abused, most likely by Junior. From what his parents implied, they have had great difficulty finding a babysitter for him due to his bad reputation.

At the start of the episode, Junior breaks two vases that he tried to balance upon his head, and places the cat on the broken pieces, giving his mom the impression that the cat broke the vase. Afterwards, [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] show up unexpectedly, and are coerced by Junior's mom to babysit Junior while they go out for the night (and to get a break from their son). Stuck at home with the Mario bros., Junior demands that they play hide-and-seek, and that Mario and Luigi are "it".

While looking for a hiding spot under the kitchen sink, Junior finds the [[Warp Pipe]] that the Mario Bros. came through and warps to the [[Mushroom Kingdom]]. Thinking it is the coolest place ever, Junior runs off, attacks a trio of [[Boomerang Bro]]thers with one of their own [[boomerang]]s and runs into [[Larry Koopa|Cheatsy]], [[Roy Koopa|Bully]] and [[Ludwig von Koopa|Kooky]]. Wanting to annoy Mario and Luigi, Junior agrees to work with the Koopalings. He pretends to be in danger so that Mario and Luigi try to rescue them, but instead, they are lured into a trap.

Although Junior thought that the Koopalings were just playing around, they get suspicious of Junior and toss him down a Warp Pipe to the [[Pipe Land|Pipe Maze]], where he gets lost and frightened. Eventually, Mario and Luigi come to his rescue, and help him escape from the Pipe Maze. Junior then helps the Mario Bros. plug a volcano that the Koopalings overloaded with [[lava]], and Mario and Luigi then take him home to Brooklyn.
