 Back in the desert, Iggy and Spike locate Mario and Luigi, driving a small, six-wheeled vehicle towards them. They accidentally drive off a cliff, attracting the attention of the Mario Bros. Quickly, the brothers tie them up, demanding information. They reveal the purpose of Daisy's necklace and Koopa's plan with it. Luigi offers a trade: the meteorite shard in exchange for Daisy. Iggy and Spike agree and, based off of Luigi's description of Big Bertha, head to the [[Boom Boom Bar]].

 At the Boom Boom Bar, Mario and Luigi don Spike's ex-wife's dance clothes to fit into the dance club. Once inside, Mario and Luigi attempt to locate Big Bertha. Iggy and Spike head to the bar, ordering drinks as a toast to Koopa's downfall. Mario finds and confronts Big Bertha, attempting to seduce her, but resulting with a punch in the face. Mario then walks over to her again, trying reverse psychology this time, and Big Bertha demands he dance with her, during which he attempts to snatch Daisy's necklace back. He finally does so, just as the song ends, but Lena and a squad of Goombas arrive after having been tipped off by the coat check. Mario and Luigi attempt escape, but lose the necklace, saved from falling into a floor vent by Lena, in the process before being aided by Big Bertha. She lends them each a pair of Thwomp Stompers, instructing them on their use. They then escape through the roof, and, while they are moving, Luigi notices that the fungus is once again trying to give them a Bob-omb. The brothers then continue running from Goombas, only to be cornered on a catwalk by cops, but escape by jumping into the back of a moving Sludge Gulper. Mario complains that it is impossible for them to enter the tower, but Luigi insists that nothing is impossible, only improbable.

 ==Continuations==
 The film ends in a cliffhanger, with Princess Daisy entering Mario and Luigi's home and asking them for help, saying "You're not going to believe this." This moment set up the possibility of a sequel film, but due to the critical failure of the film in both the box office and in critical reception, a sequel never came into fruition.
 ===Sequel webcomic===
-An unofficial webcomic sequel, written by Steven Applebaum and Ryan Hoss and illustrated by Eryk Donovan, was being written and published under the name ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. One of the film's surviving original writers, Parker Bennett, helped outline the webcomic's storyline.<ref>[http://smbthecomic.com/about/faq/ Super Mario Bros 2's FAQ page]</ref> The comic is loosely based on the American ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', directly following the end of the original film, and features Mario and Luigi trying to stop the game's villain, [[Wart]] from taking over the parallel world. It has not been continued since 2015.<ref>[http://www.smbthecomic.com/ Super Mario Bros. 2: The Sequel Comic]</ref>
