"I'd say he's hot on our tail!"
  • In the first episode, Prince Hugo of Giant Land sends Mario, Luigi, Princess Toadstool, and Toad a message asking for help.
    Toad: That was the first letter we ever got that was bigger than the post office.
    • Big Mouth's assesment of Prince Hugo:
    Big Mouth: That's Prince Hugo the Huge! The new ruler of Giant Land! They say, he's the biggest, toughest, b-b-bravest prince ever! Even for a giant, he's a giant.
    • King Koopa orders Kooky, Cheatsy, Bully and Big Mouth to step forward. Neither of them move with Kootie Pie, Hip and Hop stepping back instead.
  • The episode where they freed Crimewave Clyde from jail to teach the Koopalings to rob. Big Mouth takes it too far by stealing from his own siblings.
    Kootie Pie: Big Mouth! That's mine! I stole it all personally!!
    Clyde: No, no, no! You're not supposed to rob each other! Do we have to go over this again?!
    • Then Hip and Hop go even further by stealing...from Clyde.
    Clyde: Hey! Cut it out! Give that back right now! You guys are driving me crazy!
  • King Koopa having a cold in "Do The Koopa", and a running gag of his kids not being able to understand him.
    • The Doom Dancer Music Box falling off the Doomship and landing on a Goomba.
  • Cheatsy listening to the background music on a Walkman in "Never Koop A Koopa."
    • Earlier, Princess Toadstool announces her plan to turn Castle Koopa into a retirement home for elderly Mushrooms, to which Toad says "Remind me never to grow old!"
  • Kootie Pie throwing her birthday presents out the window in "Reptiles In The Rose Garden", followed by literally kicking her birthday cake in the same fashion.
    • Big Mouth's assessment of Kootie Pie's birthday present.
    Big Mouth: Give that brat a country and she finally stops nagging!
    • The President only being seen talking on the phone, even when the White House is underwater.
    • This line after Koopa transports the White House to the bottom of the Mushroom Sea.
    Mrs. President: Help! The President can't swim!
    Mario: Whoops!
    First Lady: Oh, Mario! I don't mean to complain, Mario, but my husband can't run the country from up here!
    • To infiltrate in the Doomship, Mario and Luigi wear obviously fake Hammer Bros armor. When Luigi expresses doubt in that plan, Mario reassures him "You're my own brother and even I don't recognize you". As soon as they're on board...
  • "Toddler Terrors of Time Travel":

    • "Hey, Mario! WAAAAAAAH!"
    • Koopa sucking his thumb even after Kooky turns him back into an adult.
    • Plus the scene where Koopa and Kooky pose as plumbers to fix a lady's bathroom drain, when they actually plan to clog it.
    Woman: Um, how are you doing in there, costumed plumbers?
    Koopa: Aww shut yer trap!
    Woman: Gracious! How rude! I thought you made plumbing a party!
    Kooky: *brings more furniture into the bathroom* We do, lady! This is a fun game called STUFF YOUR FURNITURE DOWN THE DRAIN!
  • Kootie Pie forcing herself to eat pasta in "The Beauty of Kootie".
    • Plus this famous scene:
    Kootie Pie: And believe me, Cheatsy, Casanova's the only reptile for me! [kisses Casanova multiple times and in doing so accidentally changes him back to Luigi with her wand]
    Cheatsy: [gasps] Luigi!?
    Luigi: Luigi?
    Kootie Pie: AAAHH!! I'VE BEEN KISSED BY A PLUMBER!! I'll tie your lips behind your head! And you'll never kiss again!
  • The Running Gag of Koopa wanting to take a nap in "True Colors."
  • The entirety of "Kootie Pie Rocks." And not just because it's Hilarious in Hindsight.
  • "Mush-Rumors:" Kootie Pie's panicked description of the aliens to King Koopa.
    • Cheatsy finger-pointing at the end the same episode. What makes this funny is that he was never a part of the original rumor-spreading.
    • Kooky explaining the truth about the aliens to Koopa beforehand, with visible sweat beads.
  • Luigi SCARING THE BOOS in Misadventures in Babysitting. Double as CMOA.
  • From "Recycled Koopa" where the Koopalings try to clean their trash:
    Bully: You? Beautiful!? I thought you were part of the garbage, Kootie Pie!
    Kootie Pie: ALL RIGHT! This is war!
    • Luigi freaking out after one Koopa's Doomship cannonballs get him. After, he hurriedly rubs his tail with his hands mid-flight.
  • In "Princess Toadstool For President," the Princess ends up winning by a vote of 6,436,212 to one. Not only is this an amazing number, it means even the Koopalings voted for her over King Koopa!
    King Koopa: How could I be the only guy who voted for me?
    Cheatsy: We couldn’t help it, King Dad! We had to vote for her! She’s so nice, and you’re so, so...
    King Koopa: (Growls angrily)
    Cheatsy: Exactly, Dad!
    • Also, anytime Koopa acts sickeningly nice in the same episode.
    • Koopa's reaction to Cheatsy telling him to be nice.
    Me? Nice? I've never been nice in my life! I'm allergic to nice!
    • The bros' conversation upon arriving in Dark Land:
    Luigi: Yeesh, Dark Land gives me the creeps.
    Mario: That's because it's filled with them.
    (Luigi seems some tanks approaching)
    Luigi: Tanks for reminding me.
    Mario: No time for jokes Luigi! Make tracks!
    • Koopa's reaction to his nice guy potion wearing off:
    Hurry! Being nice is killing me!
  • This exchange between Princess Toadstool and Toad in Up, Up, and a Koopa.
    Toad: It's really hard to control these racoon powered wings. I must look ridiculous.
    Princess Toadstool: Don't be so self-conscious. It's not like you're on television with millions of people watching you. Now come on, we gotta find Mario and Luigi.
    • Consider this as half awesome as well, seeing the Princess and Toad on the rescuing end for once.
  • This scene in "Mind Your Mummy Mommy, Mario":
    Princess Toadstool: I wonder what made the mummy so upset?
    (Hip and Hop run by right after she said that, carrying the mummy's son)
    • Mario's reaction to the mummy mistaking him as her son:
    Mario: Lady, if you weren't so wrapped up in yourself, you could see I'm not your little boy!
  • In "Oh, Brother!", Mario drives Luigi crazy by dancing to music while he's trying to read.
    Mario: I wanna listen to music. This record's hot! (Luigi takes the record from the record player) Huh?

    • After Luigi throws the record into the fire, it makes the lost life sound effect from SMB1!
    • Mario and Luigi getting into a Big Ball of Violence with multiple sound effects playing from the SMB3 game.
