Day 4: Dozing Sands Toad Village, 9 AM
"Welcome, everyone, to the next challenge. For this challenge, please select three people with the best eyesight." Lakitu said as the contestants sat at the breakfast table of the Toad Hotel."

"Ummm... no." Peach joked. "I suck at that!" She laughed.
"Me! I think I'm good at that." Rosalina told everyone.
"Okay, Rosalina can be one... does anyone else want to?" Toad said.

After a brief discussion, the group selects Rosalina, Bowser, and Luigi as the three with good eyesight.
"Okay, Luigi, Bowser, Rosalina, please follow me." Lakitu led the three, as the rest of the group cheered and banged on the table."

Lakitu brought the three to a small staircase leading to the Toad Temple. "Okay, so for this test I have two rings in my hand. Your job is to find out which Ring is fake, and which is real. You have two hours, and you can use ANY help you find in the village. After two hours, you guys have to choose which is fake. If you choose correctly, I'll add 20,000 coins to the pot. However if you're wrong, I will have to subtract 20,000 coins to the pot to pay for a new ring."

"Ready, set, go." Lakitu said.

The group immediately got to work.
"Okay, so both look like they are made out of silver..." Bowser guessed.
"This will be hard." Luigi said.
"I say we use some help from the Toad village." Rosalina suggested.

Bowser and Luigi agreed, and luckily there was a Toad Trolley next to the temple. The three payed for tickets, and got on.

"Uh... what do we look for?" Bowser asked.
"Let's try to find a jeweler." Rosalina told them.

"Jeweler?" A random Toad asked.
"Yes, jeweler." Luigi informed.

"Oh, there's one down the street, if you're looking for one." The Toad pointed.
"Thanks!" Rosalina said to the toad.

After another 2 minutes in the trolley, the group got off, but Bowser was having problems.
"Hold on," Bowser gasped, catching his breath.
"Let's wait for Bowser." Luigi stopped Rosalina.

After 15 minutes of waiting, Bowser was feeling exhausted.
"So... much... heat..." Bowser was nearly going to faint because of the 90 Degree heat.
Luigi quickly ran into a store and bought Bowser a bottle of water.

(!) "30 Minutes was wasted, but the group eventually got back on track." Lakitu said.

Bowser insisted on going to The Toad Hut and getting a Mega Burger.
"Don't do that!" Luigi exclaimed! "You'll get a stomachache!"
Rosalina sighed.

(!) "I'm beginning to think Bowser is the Mole. He is wasting lots of our time we could be using to earn coins." Rosalina explained her thoughts.

Luigi checked his watch. "30 minutes left. Let's find that jeweler!"
The three set off, until they found he jeweler.

"Hello" Rosalina greeted the jeweler.
"Can I help you?" The Toad asked.
"Yes, can you tell if one of these are fake?" She asked as she held out the rings.
"Hmmm..." The Toad examined the rings closely. "Well, both are made of silver... this one has a bit of copper... this is tough. But I think this ring with the M on it is fake. But I could be wrong. It's just that this other ring seems real. I've experienced with that more."

"Okay, thanks!" Luigi said, as they headed out to the temple to meet Lakitu.

"Just in time." Lakitu said. "It's time to choose."

The competitors spent another ten minutes deciding, and unanimously picked Ring 1 as fake.

"We say this ring is fake." Luigi said.

"This one?"

"Yes,""Okay, follow me

"Yes,"
"Okay, follow me."

Lakitu hung up the ring on a wall, which a shooter was about to shoot.

"Now you will find out, if you were correct."

(!) "A shooter has lined up to shoot the fake watch. If a green explosion appears, the group has succeeded in choosing the fake watch. However, if there is a red explosion, I will have to subtract 20,000 coins from the pot to buy a new ring." Lakitu explained.

(!) "I could have never chose between the two." Bowser admitted. "I just had to trust Luigi and Rosalina."

"Ready, aim... FIRE!"

"YES!!!" Rosalina exclaimed

"YES!!!" Rosalina exclaimed.
"Haha!!!" Luigi exclaimed happily.
"That's what I'm talking about!" Bowser hugged Luigi. "THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!"

"Congratulations, you guys have destroyed the fake ring. 20,000 Coins has been added to the pot." Lakitu informed.

The group went back to the hotel and shared their good fortune with the group. They all cheered and had a nice discussion.

What will happen next? Find out on, The Mole.
