Lakitu: I can't believe we're actually doing this again.

Blue: What do you mean, sir?

Yellow: Are you concerned the new players won't like you?

Lakitu: No, I'm just surprised we had the budget to keep the show going.

Yellow: Oh.

Green: Well, uh, the contestants are arriving any minute now! We have to get ready!

Lakitu: Oh, Green. You don't know me at all. I was born ready.

(A few minutes later...)

Lakitu: You can never rely on newbies to show up on time.

???: AAH!

Purple: Look! There's someone!

*CRASH!*

Lakitu: Let's give a warm welcome to our first, and possibly dead contestant, Pokey!

Pokey: Hi!

Lakitu: Pokey, if I may ask... Why weren't you using your parachute?

Pokey: Oh, I don't have arms, so I couldn't reach it.

Lakitu: Oh, right.

Pokey: Wait, why was I thrown out of the sky anyway?

Lakitu: For, um, entertainment purposes?

Pokey: Enlightening.

Lakitu: Hey, look! Here comes another competitor!

Pokey: Huh?

*CRASH!*

Lakitu: It's Koopa Paratroopa!

Koopa Paratroopa: Yes! I've been waiting to get on this show for years.

Pokey: Couldn't imagine why.

Koopa Paratroopa: Oh, did I land on you? I'm so sorry!

Pokey: Don't worry about it, stuff like this happens to me all the time.

Koopa Paratroopa: I know, but I–

???: Move out of the way, girlie.

Koopa Paratroopa: ???

Blue: It's King K. Rool!

Koopa Paratroopa: Well, King K. Rool, I'll have you know that–

King K. Rool: *covers her mouth* Aaand I don't want to hear it. Let's just get this competition over with.

Pokey: Wow, someone's ready to get started.

King K. Rool: Well yeah. Aren't we all?

Pokey: Fair point. Say, where's your parachute?

King K. Rool: I was too heavy to–

Lakitu: Alright, moving on! While all of you were talking, Whittle landed!

Whittle: H-hey everyone.

Pokey: Hi! Nice to meet you! *walks over to him*

King K. Rool: *trips Pokey*

Pokey: Woah! *falls*

King K. Rool: Whoops, must've been a leg twitch.

Koopa Paratroopa: Hm...

Whittle: I guess that's no friends for me.

Lakitu: Incoming! It's Luma!

Luma: Greetings, all. I'm excited to be playing in this game with you.
