Plot synopsis

In Mario Brothers Plumbing, Luigi is in the middle of a chess match against Edison, who is standing in a manhole. Eventually Luigi becomes annoyed by Edison, who hasn't moved a piece in a while. Eventually, Edison does make a move, which Luigi believes to be a bad one and counters it. Unfortunately for Luigi, Edison easily puts him in checkmate in his next turn.

As Edison begins to gloat about his victory, the apartment doorbell suddenly rings; Mario, who is too busy eating, simply gets Luigi to go and answer the door, much to Luigi's annoyance. Answering the door, Luigi is surprised to see a girl there; asking who she is, Luigi gets the response that she is an orphan whose name is Patty. Hearing Patty's claim of being an orphan Luigi, who feels sorry for her, lets her in and introduces her to Mario.

Asking Patty where she is from, Mario gets the response from Patty that she is been living on the streets for months, with nowhere to go. Feeling sorry for Patty, Mario and Luigi decide to throw her a party after learning it is her birthday. Hearing Mario and Luigi will throw her a party, Patty begins demanding to have various, expensive things at the party, leaving Mario and Luigi somewhat nervous as to how they can afford the things Patty wants.

As Mario and Luigi begin to set up Patty's party, Patty herself simply watches television while eating. Having eaten all her popcorn, Patty tells Mario she will lose her temper if she does not get more. As Luigi begins to become annoyed with Patty, the doorbell suddenly rings.
