Meet King Dedede and Escargoon/Fortune Tellers/Mario And Luigi Rob King Dedede/Transcript

This is the transcript of Mario Hood Part 2.

(Fade to what appears to be a parade of Koopa Troopas, Goombas, Shy Guys, Waddle Dees, and Hammer Bros marching on the road with a large treasure chest full of stolen riches as the fanfare plays. We now go to King Dedede and Escargoon in the coach)

King Dedede: Taxes, hahaha, taxes! What beautiful, lovely, taxes! (laughs)

Escargoon: Sire, you have an absolute skill for encouraging contributions from the poor.

King Dedede: To coin a phrase, my dear counselor, rob the poor to feed the rich. (laughs) Am I right?

Escargoon: Yeah.

King Dedede: Now tell me, what's the next stop, Escargoon?

Escargoon: (goes over to the map) Well, let me see. Ooh, yes, the next stop is Nottingham, sire.

King Dedede: Ah, the richest plum of all, Notting-hahaha-ham. (Puts the crown on his head, but slips)

Escargoon: A perfect fit, sire. Most becoming. You look regal, dignified, sincere, masterful, noble, chivalr...

King Dedede: Ah, tut, tut, tut. Don't overdo it, Escargoon. (carefully puts the crown over his head again) There. That, I believe, does it. This crown gives me a feeling of power. Power! (Escargoon falls back with the mirror) Forgive me a cruel chuckle. (chuckles) Power, mmmm.

Escargoon: And how well King Hyrule's crown sits on your noble brow.

King Dedede: Yes, doesn't it? King Hyrule!? (grabs Escargoon by the neck and shook him) I told you never to mention my brother's name!

Escargoon: A mere slip of the forked tongue, Your Majesty. Well, you see, we're in this plot together, and remember, it was your idea. I already had him hypnotized.

King Dedede: Yeah, I know. And sent him off on that crazy crusade. (laughs)

Escargoon: Much to the sorrow of the Queen Mother.

King Dedede: (exclaims) Mother! Mother always did like Hyrule best. (starts sucking his thumb)

Escargoon: Your Highness, please don't do that.

(King Dedede keeps sucking his thumb)

Escargoon: If you don't mind my saying so, you have a very loud thumb. Hypnotism is the only way to rid of your psychosis, and it's (starts hypnotizing him) so easy.

(King Dedede smiles as he's hypnotized)

King Dedede: (screams) No, no, no! None of that!

Escargoon: Well, I was only trying to help you.

King Dedede: (chuckles) I wonder. Silly slug.

Escargoon: Silly slug?

King Dedede: Now look here, one more slippery talk out of you, uh, Escargoon. And you are walking to Nottingham.

Escargoon: Snails don't walk, they slide. (Gets inside his basket) Heh, so there.
