Slime Busters/The Legend of Zelda: The Ringer

Summary The Legend of Zelda: The Ringer - Link reluctantly gets out of bed, complaining about his "boring" life in North Castle and reminiscing about the days when he would roam the world and constantly fight monsters. He looks out the window and sees Princess Zelda in a nearby balcony and whistles at her. Annoyed, Zelda leaves and shortly after, a Moblin sneaks behind Link and attacks him while more Moblins come into his room. One of the minions tries to steal the Triforce of Wisdom in Link's room, but the young hero manages to defeat them and sends them back to Ganon's Evil Jar. Link then notices that one of the Moblins dropped a Magic Bow, and stores it in his pocket before Zelda knocks on his door. After the young hero tries to kiss her, Zelda greets him with a smack to his cheek for having whistled at her before. Link then tells her of the Moblins that attacked him earlier, and the princess notices that this was the third attack by Ganon in the same month. Much to Link's dismay, Zelda orders Link to stay in his room and guard to Triforce while she goes off to judge the Magician's Contest.

Meanwhile, in the Underworld, Ganon punishes the Moblins and concludes that if he wants the Triforce of Wisdom, he will have to get it himself. He begins his plans to spoil the Magician's Contest by appearing in cognito: since his teleportation powers are limited in the "upper world," he disguises four Stalfos in robes and makes them carry him on a platform. Ganon eventually arrives to North Castle and asks to be let in the contest. When Zelda asks him if he is an amateur magician, the evil wizard answers by making a bird appear out of his hands, which the princess approves of but asks that he wait his turn. Zelda continues to judge the contest while Ganon makes the bird turn into an Ache and orders it to go see who is guarding the Triforce of Wisdom. The Ache, having seen Link and Spryte next to the Triforce, later comes back to Ganon and informs him that the young hero is guarding the sacred relic. When one of the magicians makes a lizard appear on Zelda's hand, Ganon uses his magic to turn the lizard into a fire-breathing dragon that promptly turns towards the princess, causing her to scream in fear. Link hears Zelda's scream and rushes down from his room to help the princess. Although the young hero tries to defend himself from the dragon's fire using his Magical Shield, the flame is too strong. In order to make an opening for Link's attacks, Zelda throws a nearby plate in his direction, and the young hero fires several sword beams at it which reflect back at the dragon, promptly defeating it. However, Zelda and Link soon learn that the dragon was just a diversion and Ganon had managed to steal the Triforce of Wisdom.

Princess Zelda quickly grabs a seed that was sitting on a nearby table and asks one of the magicians from the contest to use their growing spell, causing the seed to immediately grow into a giant tree. The princess then ties a rope around the tip of the tree, and after Link and Zelda climb on top of it, Link snaps the rope with his sword so that the two are launched out of the castle. Zelda falls on top of Link, who tries to get her to kiss him, but Zelda pushes him away and warns him that Ganon is coming. Although Ganon is quickly approaching a secret Underworld entrance, Link zaps one of the Stalfos carrying the evil wizard, resulting in Ganon falling over, who commands his minions to attack the young duo while he calls for reinforcements. Link gives Zelda the Magic Bow that he found earlier, and when he sees that more Stalfos are coming from the Underworld entrance, he takes his belt off and ties it around both him and Zelda to fight back-to-back. The pair easily defeats the Stalfos together, and when there is only one Stalfos left, it takes out a bomb from underneath its chest and throws it at Link and Zelda; however, the young hero blocks it with his sword and zaps the foe. Ganon attempts to make a quick getaway with the Triforce of Wisdom in hand, but Link uses the bomb that the Stalfos threw at him and knocks it back at Ganon, causing the Triforce to be knocked from his hands.

With the Triforce of Wisdom now safe, Link tells Zelda that he will not get the belt off around them until she kisses him. Just as they are about to kiss, Spryte comes in and interrupts them, using her magic to get the belt off. The episode ends with Ganon inside the Evil Jar threatening that Link and Zelda will pay for what they have done.

Slime Busters - Mario and Luigi are at home in Mario Brothers Plumbing, where the two of them are forcing a strange Slime Ghost back into one of Edison's sewer entrances with a broom. As soon as they succeed in forcing the Slime Ghost into the sewer, another larger Slime Ghost slides across the floor. While Luigi directs the Slime Ghost into the back room, Mario mentions that the Slime Busters should be arriving at any moment. As a van drives past the basement window and parks, Mario tells Luigi to keep the Slime Ghost busy, and figures that the Slime Busters have arrived.

Just as the Slime Ghost pulls Luigi into the back room, the doorbell rings, and Mario tells the person on the other side to enter. In walks Ernie Hudson, but Mario is disappointed that none of the other Slime Busters came. Ernie confesses that when the Slime Busters heard that Mario and Luigi had called, he lost a coin toss, implying that none of Slime Busters really wanted to come.

Ernie notices some steam coming from the furnace, and goes to inspect it, but Mario redirects him to the back room. Before entering, Ernie tells Mario that if he's not back in ten minutes, to put a dime in the parking meter for him, to which Mario complies. Ernie enters the back room, and comes out disgusted, complaining that what he saw in their was the most hideous entity he's ever seen. Soon, Luigi walks out of the back room, screaming and shaking. Mario asks Ernie to introduce himself to Luigi and to shake his hand, but Ernie comments that Luigi is shaking just fine.

Later, Ernie is checking the reading on one of his devices, noting that he can't pick up a trace of the Slime Ghost. When Mario suggests that it went for a bite to eat, Luigi, who is sitting at the table, says in creepy voice, that a slice of pizza is his favorite dish, and proceeds to eat the plate rather than the actual slice. After witnessing some slime being flung onto the fridge from nearby, Ernie claims that the Slime Ghost is indeed nearby. Luigi, now with a slimy, glowing, half body, startles Mario and Ernie, and offers them a chance to arm wrestle his slimy arm before Mario say "uh-oh".

The Slime Ghost, having taken control of Luigi, tells Mario that he's his next target. Ernie prepares to blast Luigi with his proton gun, explaining that his shot will drive the Slime Ghost from Luigi's body, or else Slime Ghost turn him into a drooling, moronic zombie forever. Ernie fires his gun at Luigi, who attempts to deflect it with a pizza pan. After a flash of light, the Slime Ghost has disappeared, and Luigi appears to be back to normal.

Ernie asks Luigi if he's okay, and he responds, saying the good news is that he's no longer a drooling, moronic zombie. Mario tells Luigi that he can say that again, and he does. Ernie asks Luigi what the bad news is, and Luigi points to the now dented pizza pan, stating that they'll need to buy a new one. Suddenly, the pizza pan starts to glow green. From it, the Slime Ghost's voice tells Ernie that he surrenders, and asks to be taken away from Mario and Luigi, whom he refers to as "two Goombas". Upon hearing this remark, Mario and Ernie laugh.
