Note: This episode takes place after the events of "The Grand Y/n and Mario Hotel".

Location: Peach's Castle - The Mushroom Kingdom

No POV

As we start off the episode at Peach's Castle Grounds, we see a green pipe rose up from the ground and two paper versions of Y/n and Mario jump out of the pipe as they are here to check out the OG Y/n and Mario's world and meet their friends at Peach's Castle, unaware of what's about to happen here at the Mushroom Kingdom as Paper Y/n and Paper Mario make their way to the castle to meet the crew.

Paper Mario: Nice of the Comedic Duo to allow us to visit their own world to meet the crew. Eh, little buddy?

Paper Y/n: (Happy Sound Effects)

Paper Mario: Let's go inside the castle and meet the crew!

-Inside Peach's Castle-

As everyone inside the castle are chilling out and relaxing, SMG4 bursts out of his room to bring some unfortunate news to tell the gang that will be a serious problem for everyone in the entire universe.

SMG4: EVERYBODY, RUN! IT'S AN EMERGENCY!

Then everyone stopped what they're doing and turned to SMG4 with a panicked expression on his face as he is almost out of money to make his videos for his YouTube in perfect quality.

SMG4: Guys, almost all of my money is gone!

Luigi: Oh no! How? Did someone steal it?

Jeffy: Did someone scam you with rocks again?

Tails Doll: Did you buy a bunch of useless stuff on Ebay while getting drunk?

Car: You donate it to charity?

Ember: Or did you waste it on something that you wanted to get from the arcade?

SMG4: Uh....

Then we see a small flashback of SMG4 playing a crane game, trying to get a bootlegged Thomas the Train Engine toy, but keeps adding more money to get it and ended up failing miserably.

Then gang are not happy about this as they look at SMG4 with disappointing expressions on their faces.

SMG4: That's not the point right now. Without enough money, I have to make my videos at a lower quality...

Ember: Oh please, what's the worse that could happen?

Then suddenly, Ember turns into a bootlegged version of an inkling that is considered as poor quality.

Ember: I'm just a squid, aren't I?

Jeffy: Yep.

Then Jeffy transforms into a poorly made Jeffy doll.

Jeffy: Pumpernickel F***!

Then everyone soon started to turn into low quality, bootlegged versions of themselves due to how much money that SMG4 wasted on getting that stupid Thomas toy.

Luigi: Waaa! Oh no! Help! (Luigi become a two-dimensional Mama Luigi)

Toad: HAHA!

But Toad didn't last long as he is now reduced to a picture of a fungus.

Ember: Serves you right, shroom head!

SMG4: Oh no...it's already spreading! Since my video quality is so low...everything's turning into paper and crap!

Yoshi and Wario are afflicted by the low-quality curse as well as Peach.

Peach: (She is now an 8-bit sprite) Mario! I'm feeling extra pretty today!

SMG4: What a minute?! Where's Y/n and Mario!

Paper Mario: Are you talking about us?

Then the gang turned to see Paper Mario and Paper Y/n enter the castle before looking at the crew along with the poor-quality version of Peach's castle.

Paper Y/n: (Confused Sound Effect)

Paper Mario: Huh. I was sure that this place would be more normal, but it's not like the Comedic Duo told us about.

SMG4: Who are you two?

Paper Mario: Oh. You must be SMG4 that the OG Y/n and Mario told us about. Why is this place so cheap and poorly made?

Ember: SMG4 wasted all of his money for his videos on a stupid toy that he tried to get on a crane machine and now everything is turning into paper and crap because of him.

Luigi: Where's my brother and Y/n?

Paper Y/n: (Chatter Noises)

Everyone: (Confused) Huh?

Paper Mario: Don't mind my partner here. He doesn't talk normally, and he can only speak in sound effects and emojis as his only form of communication to talk to other people. I can understand his language and as for where the OG Y/n and Mario are at, they are relaxing back at the Grand Y/n and Mario Hotel with the other clones.

Everyone: (Understood what he meant)

Peach: (Angry) Mario! Y/n! Fix this right now!

Paper Y/n: (1 HP Warning Sound effect)

Paper Mario: OH GOD IT'S HORRENDOUS!

Ember: SMG4 FIX THIS! Just take Peach's money! See if that will fix everything!

Peach: Ugh! Fine! (Throws Two gold coins that soon became Monopoly money)

Jeffy: Aw come on!

Ember: Are you kidding me right now?!

Tails Doll: How original.

Luigi: Mama-Mia...

Car: (Giggles) We're in danger.

SMG4: Eww no! I can't use this fake ass paper money!

Paper Mario: Don't worry, we will save your broke ass and get some real money! (To Paper Y/n) Are you ready for an adventure, little buddy?

Paper Y/n: (Happy Sound Effects)

Tails Doll: Aww. I like him, he's so wholesome and silly.

Paper Y/n: ^w^

Paper Mario: Come on, buddy! We better find some cash for SMG4 before this world becomes even worse than poor quality!

Paper Y/n: (Thumbs Up Emoji)

So then, Paper Mario and his paper-thin partner, Paper Y/n leaves the castle, which is starting to be afflicted by the video's low quality as time is at the essence to find some money to pay for SMG4's debt to keep making videos and save the world from becoming poorer in quality and will soon become nothing at all and they need to do it as soon as possible in order to save the world from total extinction.

Paper Mario: (Mario sees an Item Block) This gonna be so easy! There are coins always lying around!

Paper Mario hits the block, only to discover that there's paper money inside.

Paper Y/n: (Sad Noises)

Paper Mario: MAMA***er! Now where we going to find some money around here?

Then Paper Y/n looked around and sees there's a barn up just ahead as he pointed out to Paper Mario to the barn to see if there's any cash there.

Paper Mario: Hmm..oh! Good catch, bro! There has to be some coins in that barn! Let's-a-go!

Paper Y/n: (Happy Noises)

Then Paper Mario and Paper Y/n investigates the barn to see if anyone is around the area that can help them on their mission.

Mario: Hello? Anybody home?

Inside the barn is Goombario and his grandfather turned to the Paper Duo as they appear to be completely different to the Goombas that worked for Bowser.

Goompapsta: Hello there traveler! Welcome to this barn! We're not like other goombas around here.

Paper Mario: Yeah, I figured you two would be friendly. Listen, we're not the Y/n and Mario from this world. We are here to visit their world here and meet their friends until SMG4 wasted all of his money and now the world is becoming poor quality, and we need to find some money, or the world will die.

Paper Y/n: (Panic Noises)

Paper Mario: Calm down, little buddy. I'm sure we're not going to end up like them and neither will the OG versions of ourselves since they are safe at the hotel.

Paper Y/n: (Sighs in relief)

Mario: Hey... there's no money coming out.

Goombario: Wow! It's the paper versions of Y/n and Mario! Gramps, my friend Goombs told me about them! Maybe their paper counterparts can help us with the rascal's problem, Grampsta!

Paper Y/n: ??? (Confused Sound Effect)

Then we cut over to the barn's crop fields to see the rascals that Goombario and Goompapsta are talking about as Hood music plays in the background.

Goompapsta: You see, this kids...They listen to the rap music, which gives them the brain damage

Paper Mario: I can tell.

Paper Y/n: (Thumbs Up Emoji)

Goombario: What he means to say is that we have these rascals that keep playing on our crops but today we turned into paper! So, we don't stand a chance against them.

Mario: That's really interesting. Do we get a reward if we help you guys out because we are in a hurry after all. Plus, we are both skilled in fighting paper style in our world, so it should be a snap for the two of us.

Paper Y/n: (Determination Sound Effects)

Goombario: YEEEAH BOIII!!

Goompapsta: Hold on fella, let me teach you two about how to fight! So, you two gotta always take turns, that's what my mama use to tell me-

However, the Paper Duo didn't listen to him as they began killing the rascals one by one as they don't have time for instructions on how to fight right now.

Goompapsta: You're both supposed to TAKE TURNS, goddammit!

Paper Mario: We know how to fight in our world, but we don't have time to take turns in battle! The world is in danger and we're running out of time.

Then Paper Y/n continued jumping on the rascals until he accidentally stepped on a spiky haired Goomba as he grabbed his foot in pain.

Goombario: Oh no, Paper Y/n! (Throws the hammer to Paper Y/n) Take this!

Then Paper Y/n grabbed the hammer and used it to knock the spiky hairdo right off the Goomba's head, to which he gasped in shock and got smashed by Paper Y/n's hammer, killing it in the process.

Unfortunately for the Paper Duo, the Rascals appear to be broke as hell and the paper-thin heroes need to find some money for SMG4 and fast.

Paper Mario: They didn't have any money...

Paper Y/n: :( (Sad Noises)

Goombario: You did it! Wow, You're both amazing! I wanna help you two fix this paper mess! Pa, Can I please go with them?

Paper Mario: I don't know. (Turns to Goompapsta) Can he?

Goompapsta: (Walks back into the barn) I DON'T GIVE F***!

Paper Mario: Works for me. Welcome to the team, Goombario.

Y/n: :D (Happy Noises)

Goombario has joined the party!

Party Member Power - Tattle: He can use his tattle abilities to describe enemies.

Paper: Mario: Wow...you have the same ability as the Goombario in our universe. Quick, what do you think you can understand what Y/n is saying?

Goombario: Hmm...judging by Y/n's happy expression on his face, he is so happy and excited to have a new party member on the team.

Mario: MIND BLOWN! Come on, team! We better get a move on if we want to save the world from extinction.

So then, our heroes travel further into the Mushroom Kingdom until they end up at the Koopa Village.

Mario: Hello? Anyone home?

Then they see a poor Koopa Troopa with a red bandana and a blue shell by the name of Kooper, who is now being locked up in a cage by the other Koopa Troopas as he is being tormented by them and calling them names.

Kooper: Hey! Lemme out!

Koopa #1: Is he sick???

Koopa #2: He has AIDS!!!

Koopa #3: Why is he paper??

Koopa #4: Nice ass.

Koopa #5: HE'S EVIL!

Koopa #6: He's a witch!

Koopa: What's the diagnosis, Doctor Y/n and Doctor Mario?

Then they both started dancing and singing a song to reveal the diagnosis on Kooper about him having AIDS.

Dr. Y/n and Dr. Mario: (Singing) You have AIDS (Yes, you have AIDS)

Dr. Mario: (Singing) I hate to tell you, boy, that you have AIDS (You've got the AIDS)

Dr. Y/n: (Singing) You may have caught it when you stuck that filthy-

Paper Mario: Helllo? Do any of you Koopas have some money?

Paper Y/n: (Cha-Ching!)

Koopa: THOSE GUYS HAS IT! IT'S SPREADING!!!

Then the Koopas began panicking at the sight of Paper Mario and Paper Y/n, thinking that they got the disease that they thought it was because of it.

Kooper: Hey, can you guys set me free!!?

Paper Mario: Can't you just slide through the holes since you're made of paper right now? Trust me, the Kooper in our universe can do that move.

Kooper: Fuck you.

Paper Y/n: >:( (Angry Noises)

Kooper: Ok ok. I'm sorry. I'll give it a try.

Then Kooper went through the cage bars easily due to his paper-thin state, which surprised him that he can do that.

Kooper: Oh, I guess I can. But what are we gonna do about these Koopas? They think everything happening around here is some sort of paper disease.

Goombario: Don't worry, we just have to explain, and they'll understand!

Paper Mario: That could work.

Then suddenly, a tank rolls in as these Koopas are not gonna even try to listen to them as they are set on killing anyone with the "paper disease" at all costs.

Koopa: EXTERMINATE THE DISEASE!

Paper Y/n: (1 HP Warning Sound effect)

Dr. Mario, Dr. Y/n, Goombario, and Kooper: SWEET MERCIFUL CRAP!

Paper Mario: Oh boy, more civilian fatalities. These Koopas are not even gonna listen us. So...WE FIGHT!

Then the gang including Dr. Y/n and Dr. Mario began fighting against the Koopas with Paper Y/n using his hammer to tank by throwing it, Paper Mario used a paper fire flower to burn the Koopas, Dr. Y/n and Dr. Mario using syringe guns filled with the red, blue and yellow viruses from the Dr. Mario game at the Koopas, making them sick and die and finally Goombario is cornered by the Koopas until he uses his Tattle ability against them.

Goombario: Stay back...I know stuff about you!...uhh...You! You're Jeff and you used friend's toothbrush to unclog your toilet!

Jeff's friend: ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME!?

Jeff: What? No. No, I don't...

Jeff's friend: Goddammit Jeff!

Jeff: AAH!

Then as the two Koopas began fighting each other, the Koopa Bros. appeared out of nowhere and are here to attack the gang with their Ninja Turtle skills.

Yellow Ninjakoopa: Stop right there! The Koopa Bros. are here to stop you!

Black Ninjakoopa: Okay team, attack formation: ROCKET!

Then they summoned a giant cannon to attack the gang until the Paper Duo have a trick up their sleeve to stop their attack.

Paper Mario: Oh no you don't! Y/n! Paper Ball Form!

Then they both turned into a big paper ball and went straight into the cannon and clogged it up, causing it to explode and defeated the Koopa Bros.

Paper Mario: Well, that went well.

Parakarry: Oh GOD! Everyone is DEAD!

Dr. Y/n: To be fair, they did try to kill us over some paper disease that was caused by SMG4's money spending problem.

Parakarry: Oh....ok then. (Flys away)

Paper Mario: Oh man...But we still need money... :(

Paper Y/n: :( (Sad Noises)

Kooper: Oh! I know a fabled cave that is said to hold legendary treasure! Please let me join! I can help you retrieve things with my spin attack!

Paper Mario: Retrieve stuff...huh? Sure, why not. We need all the help we can get after all.

Paper Y/n: :D (Happy Noises)

Kooper has joined your party!

Paper Mario: Alright gang! To the infamous Cave! (To Dr. Y/n and Dr. Mario) Thanks for the assist, you two.

Dr. Y/n: Anytime man. (Leaves)

Dr. Mario: No problem. (Leaves)

So then, the gang make their wave to the infamous cave that Kooper was talking about as this is their only chance to find some real money to save the universe from total extinction by poor quality content.

Kooper: Alright...Here is the infamous cave that I've heard about...I've known some people who went in but never came out...But I hated all of them, so it doesn't matter. Let's go!

Paper Mario: Right! Let's go find that treasure so we can use it to pay SMG4 and save Y/n and Mario's universe.

So, then the gang went inside the cave to look for the treasure while using Paper Mario and Paper Y/n's paper abilities like the paper plane, the paper boat and other types of paper themed moves to keep going, but they don't seem to know where to go to find it as they appear to be lost in the cave and have no idea on where to find the treasure and time is running out.

Goombario: (Sighs) We're lost. Aren't we?

Y/n: :'( (Crying Noises)

Paper Mario: Don't give up yet, guys! We can do this! (Sees a map) Oh look! It's a map! We're saved! :D

Paper Mario reads the map to see where they are at right now and where they need to go to find the treasure in the cave.

Paper Mario: See, it says right here that we're...

Map: (Labeled) You're pretty damn lost.

Paper Mario: T_T Seriously?

Kooper: I'm sorry guys...Instead of finding treasure...I made us all lost...

Paper Y/n: (Comforts Koopa)

Kooper: Thanks for trying to cheer me up, buddy. I'm sorry for getting you and your paper lost.

Paper Y/n: (Thumbs up Emoji)

Paper Mario: Hey it's okay. No hard feelings. Me and my partner tend to get lost sometimes as well whenever we go on adventures back in our world.

Then suddenly, something approaches the gang that looks menacing.

Paper Y/n: OoO (Shocked Expression/1 HP Warning Sound effect)

Paper Mario: PLEASE DON'T HURT US!!! Kooper! Use a special attack or something!

Kooper: I JUST SHIT MY PANTS!!

Paper Mario: Mama-Mia! We're doomed!

???: WOOF! OH BOI! OH BOI! HOOOOMAN!

Chompers: Oh boy! This first time Chompers seen two hoomans since 1000 years!

Paper Mario: Awww, It's just a lonely chain chomp.

Paper Y/n: (Aww Noises)

Goombario: (Reads a book) Wow, apparently this Chomp is from an ancient era of the Mushroom Kingdom!

Chompers: Yeah, silly hoomans forget me, now this Chomper's home.

Paper Y/n: (Plays fetch with Chompers)

Chompers: OOOH! BALL! BALL!!

Goombario: Excuse me, Mr. Chompers. But we're looking for a fabled treasure in this cave.

Paper Mario: Yes! We need to use it in order to save this universe from the effects of the poor-quality content. Can you help us find the treasure.

Chompers: Ooh! Chompers can help! Silly hoomans forgot their savings in cave long ago! I can take you!

Paper Y/n: :D (Happy Noises)

Koopers: Wow! That kid sure is happy to meet new people.

Paper Mario: Yeah, he is just excited to have someone on the team. He just loves meeting new people.

Chompers has joined your party!

Then with Chompers on the team, he immediately takes the gang on his back to the treasure where we see Kolorado and Randi the explorers, standing at the sight of the cave's legendary treasure

Kolorado (Explorer): My God. There it is, Randi! The legendary treasure of Koopa Cave...Right at our fingertips!

Randi: I hear a Chain Chomp.

Kolorado (Explorer): Huh?

Then without warning, Chompers crashes right atop of him them as they found the treasure they've been searching for.

You got 25 real platinum coins! :D That should be enough to save the universe!

With the platinum coin in their possession, the Paper Duo and their teammates celebrate their victory of getting the coins to save Y/n and Mario's universe.

Paper Mario: We did it!

Paper Y/n: YIPPIE!!! (Really Happy Noises)

Goombario: We did it!

Kooper: We did it!

The Gang: YAY!!!

But then, their celebration was cut short as SMG4's Low quality begins to spread further, and the effects are getting worse. Luckily, Paper Mario and Paper Y/n are unaffected by the effects since they both don't originate in this universe, but unfortunately for their teammates, their bodies are becoming even worse than before due to the effects of the poor-quality content.

Not to mention that the Platinum Coins are 100% immune to the effects, which is a good thing to put an end to this madness and save the universe.

Goombario: Ahh! I'm feeling weird...What's happening? (Becomes a crappier version of himself)

Kooper: Ahh! I'm feeling it too! (Becomes a crappier version of himself)

Paper Mario: Oh no! Everyone's turning into crappier versions! There's not much time left!!! We gotta move!!! (Gets on Chompers) To Peach's Castle!

Then they immediately got out of the cave and headed straight to Peach's Castle before it's too late.

SMG3 (Paper): STOP RIGHT HERE! (Gets run over)

But then just as they are getting close to the castle, the effects of the poor quality are increasing, making everything around them becoming more crappier by the second as the Paper Duo's teammates are unable to keep going due to the constant decrease in quality.

Paper Mario: Nooo! Not...gonna make it!

Paper Y/n: (1 HP Warning Sound effect)

Then without warning, the two of them are too late to save the universe as everything is now gone before the real Y/n and Mario appeared back to what's left of their world after they had fun at the hotel with their clones thanks to SMG4's money spending that destroyed the entire universe.

Y/n: Man, those guys know how to party.

Mario: Yeah, it's nice to see our clones again and- (Shocked to see what happened) Waaahh! What's happened to our world?

Y/n: How long have we been gone for? Did something happen while we were gone?

Paper Mario: (Runs up to Y/n and Mario) Y/n! Mario! Oh, thank God! You're both okay!

Paper Y/n: (Happy Noises)

Y/n: Would someone tell us what's going on here?!

Mario: Yeah! We want to know who destroyed our universe!

Paper Mario: Well, SMG4 spent all of his money on the skill crane for a toy that destroyed the entire universe through poor quality content, but we managed to get enough money in your world just in time to bring everything back to normal.

Y/n: SMG4 did all of this?! (Growls) When I get my hands on him, I am gonna bury him alive deeper than the Queen of England herself.

Mario: How about we make him do everyone's chores as punishment for destroying our universe.

Y/n: Even better!

Paper Mario: We'll talk about that later! We got to get this money to the one guy that can save your universe. Follow me! There's no time to waste! Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!

Then we quickly cut over to NeoDracunyan sitting at his desk feeling bored out of his mind that he lost everything due to SMG4 wasting all of his money on that skill crane.

NeoDracunyan: (Sighs) goddammit SMG4...I wish I had some money after you spent it all on that stupid skill crane.

Mario: (Enters the room) Hey stinky!

NeoDracunyan: Oh, Mario? Y/n? What are you two doing-

Paper Mario: (Throws the money to NeoDracunyan) TAKE-A-DAT!

NeoDracunyan: (Gasp) Is it what I think it is? It's actual money! LET THE CREATIVITY FLOW! I CAN WRITE MORE CHAPTERS AGAIN!!!

Then with the power of the Platinum coins, the whole world is back to normal once again thanks to the Paper Duo for helping out the Comedic Duo get enough money to save the universe from the poor-quality content virus.

Mario: Ooh! Everything's back to normal!

Y/n: And it's all thanks to our paper thin counteparts, the Paper Duo!

Paper Mario: Oh yeah!

Paper Y/n: (Victory Noises)

SMG4: Hi-five! :D

Then without warning, everyone busted through the door to SMG4's room and they began beating the shit out of SMG4 for causing the problem in the first place.

Mario: GET A JOB, HIPPIE!

Y/n: YEAH! NO MORE CRANE GAMES, SMG4!!!

After that, SMG4 was forced to take a break from making memes for a while and has to do a lot of back-breaking labor for everyone including Y/n and Mario for destroying the universe for spending all of his money on crane games. SMG4 soon learned his lesson and never played another crane game ever again.

THE END :D

Carr: (Watched the entire thing, unsatisfied) Welp. Back to the drawing board, I guess.
