"'''The Adventures of Sherlock Mario'''" is the eighteenth episode of ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' Its corresponding live-action segment is "[[Plumbers of the Year]]". | "'''The Adventures of Sherlock Mario'''" is the eighteenth episode of ''[[The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!]]'' This episode is a parody of the ''Sherlock Holmes'' books by {{wp|Sir Arthur Conan Doyle}}, with [[Herlock Solmes]] being a parody of {{wp|Sherlock Holmes}} himself, and [[Bowser|King Koopa]]'s alias of Professor Koopa-arity being a reference to Holmes' archenemy, {{wp|Professor Moriarty}}. In addition, [[Victoria]], the city where the episode takes place, is a reference to {{wp|Queen Victoria}}, who reigned in the era in which the books are set. In Herlock's flat, a violin can be seen in a recliner, which is based on one of twelve things Holmes does that Watson took note of in ''{{wp|A Study in Scarlet}}''. Also, the name of the [[Killer Kitty of the Kaskervilles]] is a reference to the title of one of the Sherlock Holmes books, ''{{wp|The Hound of the Baskervilles}}''. Its corresponding live-action segment is "[[Plumbers of the Year]]". The copyrighted title for the episode in the {{wp|United States Copyright Office}} is "'''Adventures of Sherlock Mario'''". | ||

Down below in Professor Koopa-arity's headquarters, Koopa is informed by Koopa Troopa that the Retro Router is in full working order. Moving over to the Retro Router, Koopa prepares to pull a lever on it, only for Mario, Luigi, Toad and Princess Toadstool to fall from the ceiling into Professor Koopa-arity's headquarters. Despite the heroes appearing and threatening to stop him, Koopa, unfazed, simply taunts them and pulls a lever on the Retro Router, which causes the device to pump a large amount of water on to the streets of Victoria. As Victoria begins to be rapidly submerged in water, Koopa orders the Koopa Pack to attack; rushing forward, Mouser, Tryclyde and Koopa Troopa are defeated by Toad, Princess Toadstool and Luigi, who knock them away by head butting them. Koopa is eventually defeated when Mario, after swinging from some pipes on the ceiling, flings himself towards Koopa, who Mario kicks into the Retro Router, destroying it. With the Retro Router destroyed, all the water that was flooding into Victoria begins to seep back into the sewers. With the Retro Router destroyed and the Koopa Pack defeated, Professor Koopa-arity, before he can be arrested by the freed Herlock Solmes, uses a [[Magical Potion]] to open a portal into a [[Warp Zone]]. | Down below in Professor Koopa-arity's headquarters, Koopa is informed by Koopa Troopa that the Retro Router is in full working order.
