A TV news announcer explains that Scapelli Construction's project has been halted due to the finding of dinosaur fossils in the area, prompting the {{wp|New York University}} to begin an excavation project. Anthony Scapelli is introduced arriving to the scene with businessmen acting as his bodyguards. He asks the excavation team who the head of the team is, and [[Princess Daisy (film character)|Daisy]] speaks up to announce that's her. Scapelli demands her to stop her excavation, and Daisy responds saying the research is very important and that the constant harassment from Scapelli's "goons" has been slowing progress further. Anthony Scapelli threatens Daisy, causing Daisy to leave, letting [[James]] know she plans to call the university for more security. Later, Scapelli's workers are seen fleeing from the dig site, having sabotaged the excavation team's project by breaking several pipes and flooding the dig site. It is revealed late in the movie by [[Iggy (film character)|Iggy]] and [[Spike (film character)|Spike]] that it was a human accidentally broke the wall between the dimensions of [[Earth]] and [[Dinohattan]]; Mario reasons this was accidentally done by Scapelli's employees.

At the end of the film, Scapelli and two of his businessmen are present at the dig site when the two dimensions are briefly merged by [[Lena]]. [[Daniella]] and the previously kidnapped women begin alerting the news press and everyone present that there is an incoming invasion from another dimension. Though [[Koopa's Tower]] merges with the {{wp|World Trade Center (1973–2001)|World Trade Center}}, Anthony Scapelli laughs and calls the whole event a publicity stunt. [[President Koopa]] appears as a result of the merge, and attempts to hit Mario with the [[Devolution Gun]]. Mario dodges the blast, hitting Anthony Scapelli and [[De-evolution|de-evolving]] him into a chimpanzee. A surprised Mario asks, "Scapelli?" and the de-evolved chimpanzee Scapelli responds with a facepalm. His employees pick him up, confused and worried.
