Adaptation of the video game. Mario and his brother Luigi, with Princess Toadstool and her advisor Toad, travel from land to land and save populaces from Bowser Koopa and his gang of villains. Each episode also features live action segments of Mario and Luigi in a separate storyline featuring a special guest.
In Desertland, Koop has established himself as ruler Koop Tut based on ancient Egypt. The resident Mushroom People have been enslaved and turned into bricks for Koop's pyramids. Mario and the gang meet the Mushroom's leaders (characters based on the Three Stooges) and set out to dethrone Koop and his gang.
In an attempt to battle Koop, the "Stooges" employ a pie-throwing catapult.
