*Another* BOTVGH Olympics?
There's a reason why they're called the "Annual" BOTVGH Olympics, Mario.
Don't mind him... he's still upset over losing last year.
I'm the star! I'm SUPPOSED to win!!
WHO'S the star, Jumpman?!
If you have to ask, it isn't you!
Listen, the reason we have Olympics every year is because the readers' response has been positive!

(grumbles)
Dagnab things haven't even been exciting! The first two were more one-sided than the graphics in good ol' 1980's games! Now THOSE were exciting! Unlike these so-called Olympics...
(sighs) H Cuz, WHY can't we shut him up?
It's not in our contracts.

But you said we didn't have contracts.
Stop it, you're confusing me.
: Sorry.
Anyway, H Cuz, Cranky does have a point. The Olympics haven't been real competitive so far.
Well, what do you expect? No one can beat a writer, and anyone can beat Cranky!
HEY!!!
Well, this is a parody site! It's SUPPOSED to be lopsided!
Readers want something original.
You can only use the same joke so many times...
All right, I see your point. This year we'll have an evenly-matched Olympics, so I can't use my original idea, Kamek vs. Kenny...
What?
Mmmph?
Kenny, we're not supposed to be in this episode! We'd better get out of here before you get killed!
Hrrrmmmpphh!
( comes by)
I'm hungry! I want to eat an expendable, muffled yet foul-mouthed kid in an orange snowsuit from a wildly popular, obscenity-laced TV show!
(eyes grow wide) MMMMPPPHHHH!!!
( eats )
Oh my god, you killed Kenny!
( leaves)
That was the most pointless cameo I've ever seen. And I've seen plenty!
*munch* *munch* Tastes like chicken.
Everybody: Ewww...
Bowser, you're late!
Sorry, I was stealing candy from babies. I've got an image to keep up.
Isn't that a line from Mario RPG?
(sly) Maaaaaaybe.
.....Never mind.
So what's today's episode about?
BOTVGH Olympics III. Didn't you read the title?
You mean a series of events disguised as competition that's really a showcase for one character to beat the stuffing out of the other?
It's gonna be different this year... supposedly.
(sarcastic) Oh, of COURSE it is. Who are the contestants?
(gets an idea) That's it!
What? Who?
And for heaven's sake, WHY?!
( whacks )
The most even match I could think of. Mario vs. Luigi!!
Everybody: ......
Umm... I guess that's fair...
I hate to burst yer bubble, H Cuz, but it's already been done!!
It has?
Only about a gazillion times. It'll probably be on Celebrity Deathmatch any day now! It's hardly original!!
............
....................
...Oh well. I guess I'm just lazy! (grins)
Everybody: ......
Okay, Mario vs. Luigi it is.
I dunno, I'm out of practice.
Not as much as Cranky!
Hey!
What are the events this year?
Wait and see.
I don't wanna.
Well, do it anyway.
( grumbles)
(Later, at the Olympics, in a luxury box for writers...)
I hope the Olympics are competitive.
I could beat any of these characters.
Well, all I can say is I paid good money to see this and I want my money's worth.
Does anyone even know who's competing?
Nope.
Not me.
I heard it might be Kamek vs. Kenny.
( falls out of his seat, laughing)
Man... Kenny's gonna get killed quickly...
And why is that?
YOU DON'T KNOW?! KENNY DIES IN EVERY FRIGGIN' EPISODE OF SOUTH PARK!!! HOW COULD YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN?!
Oh... sorry 'bout that... my brain's messed up...
Shh, everybody's reading this!
Whoops, sorry...
Anyway, we shall watch...
Hey, where's Matt? Isn't he supposed to be here?
Hmm...
(Somewhere in the stands)
The stands? I didn't know we had an arena on this island!
We don't. H Cuz had to rent one from Rent-A-Stadium.
Cost me a bundle.
Are you supposed to be in the stands?
No. (disappears)
I'm thirsty. Where are the refreshments?
Beer! Get yer ice cold beer!
WHAT?!!
Martin: This is BOTVGH, you can't serve beer here!
It's not beer, but I can charge more money if I say it is.

Martin: What is it, then?
Heh-heh... a little "mixture" I cooked up. Want some?
Martin: Errr, no thanks.
I'll have one!
That'll be $10.00.
Hmmm... Take 10 rupees instead?
Whatever. Here ya go.
Thanks. (takes a sip) Ugh! This is awful! I want my 10 rupees back!... Hey, where'd he go?!
Link! There you are!!
Huh? Matt?
Yeah. About last year...
What?
Here. Remember this, last season?
  
From "The 2nd Annual BOTVGH Olympics"
(To ) Hey, want to go out on a date, Samus?
Would I? Let's get going you cute little Hyrulian you!
Whoa, Matt, how'd you do that?
I'm the Author, I can do anything I want!
Oh, thanks man.
( and  go off to some fancy French restaurant)
Why did you help Link like that?
Because now he's forever in my debt.

....
Well?
I spent all my rupees so I'll give you a tip. Don't buy any drinks from the black-hooded dude. They're awful. (Tosses the cup over his shoulder)
(*Bonk! SPLOOSH!*)
Noooooo!!!! My new dress is ruined!
Oops.
Is H Cuz trying to randomly squeeze as many people into this ep as possible?
Looks like it.
This is an Olympics episode, right?
Yeah...
So why don't they GET ON WITH IT ALREADY?!
Calm down, Cranky. I think they're starting.
We'll begin with the passing of the torch.
( hands a torch to )
What was that all about?
I have no clue.
Well, due to popular demand, our scheduled matchup of Kamek vs. Kenny will instead be a Mario Bros. Olympics: Mario vs. Luigi!!
?????: WAIT A MINUTE!! I have a right to compete too!
Are you one of the Mario Brothers?

?????: YES!!
Fine. Mario vs. Luigi vs. Wario.
How'd you know it was me? Because I'm the only other known Mario Brother?
Because I wrote the episode.
Oh.
(In the writers' box, bets are placed)
Ten on Mario. He won the first Olympics, which were written by the same author. He also won the award for "Best Main Character" in the last Awards.
Twenty on Wario! He's bigger and stronger than Mario or Luigi!

25 on Luigi... 'CAUSE HE'S NEVER RECOGNIZED!!!
(Back with the main characters)
Hey! Is gambling allowed here?
All in good fun.
Hey, where's Swanky?
He couldn't make it. Luckily, here at BOTVGH we're always prepared! We got John Madden and Ian Pugh to be the announcers instead!
Wait, you can't use Madden! He's a real person!
But he's got a series of football video games named after him! So he's kind of a video game character...
.....I guess.
START THE OLYMPICS!! Dagnabbit, this takes forever!
Fine. Mr. Madden, please introduce the contestants!
(sigh)
Our first contestant is appearing in the Olympics for the third straight year! He's starred in busloads of games since 1981, and is widely recognized as Nintendo's mascot. Give it up for Mario!!
(Cheers come from the crowd)
Thank you, thank you. Please, send money.
Nice to see he's got his priorities straight.

The second contestant is Mario's twin brother, making his first Olympics appearance. He's appeared in several titles, with only one starring role. The under-appreciated Mario Brother, Luigi!!
(More cheers)
(thinking) Maybe if I win, I'll have a GOOD game to star in!
Don't get your hopes up.
What the...?!
And our third contestant, also making his first Olympics appearance, has starred in two games and co-starred in several others. Though usually portrayed here as a villain, he's done some heroic things too. Please welcome Wario!!
(A mix of cheers and boos)
HEY!! How come no one booed Marsupial and Linguini?!
No offense, Wario, but you're evil.
Oh.
Our first event today will be the traditional Pokémon battle. As always, each combatant can only use one Pokémon. Ready?
Go, Pidgeot! (throws his Poké Ball)
Pidge-aw!!
Heh-heh-heh... I choose... Kamek!! (throws his Poké Ball)
(Poké Ball opens up, a note pops out.  reads it)
"Out to lunch"...?
I could swear I've seen this somewhere...

They showed it as a clip in the premiere, remember?
Oh yeah.
Oh well... I guess I'll have to use Voltorb instead! (throws another Poké Ball)
Voltorb!
I'll use... Abra! (throws his Poké Ball)
......
: (trying not to laugh)
OK! Mario's Pidgeot vs. Wario's Voltorb vs. Luigi's, uh, Abra. Begin!
Pidgeot, use Wing Attack on Abra! May as well put it out of its misery...
Heheheh! Voltorb, Self-Destruct on them BOTH!!

( and  move quickly toward )
Abra, Teleport!
( teleports just as  self-destructs, knocking out .)
What?! NOOOOOOOO!!! I think this was rigged!!!
Beaten by an Abra... what a disgrace.

And Luigi wins our first event to take a 1-0-0 lead!
You suck, Jumpman!
Hey, you in the cheap seats, shut up!!
MAKE ME!!!
Our second event is a new one, called "Career Mistakes"!
The contestants try to embarrass each other by yelling out the names of games that their opponents shouldn't have been in!
Ready? Go!
Hmmm...
: Mario is Missing!
ACK! (He falls over)
Luigi is out.
Hmm... uh, gee, there must be SOME bad game Wario made...
Mario's Dream Tennis!
Arrrrrgh! (he falls over)
We have a winner! It's now Luigi 1, Wario 1, Mario 0!
Grrrr...
You still suck, Jumpman!
DON'T MAKE ME COME OVER THERE!!!!
HAH!!
For our next event, we have the traditional supervillain battle!
Kamek?
No...
Bowser?
No...
Me?
: No...
, & : Then WHO?!
(A familiar flying saucer flies down from above)
Hi, boys and girls!
, & : Oh.
I'll go first!
Come on plumber wimp!
WIMP?!
( tries to Super Jump on , but  grabs him!)
Hey!! Can he DO that?!
Well... this match is you three vs. Dr. Wily AND some assorted Robot Masters.
NOW you tell me.
Just admit it! You're too fat and slow to handle a real battle!
WHY YOU!!
( struggles frantically in 's grip, but to no avail)
Bah. Pathetic excuse for a video game hero.
Is it my turn yet?

( sneaks up behind  and hits him with the Tengu Blade)
Yeouch!
Heh heh heh--
( gets hit with 's spear)
That was a piece of cake!
Heh heh heh!! I'm WINNING!!!
You're not even one of the contestants!
What'll we do if Mario, Luigi, and Wario all lose?!
Then I'll beat the stuffing out of Dr. Wily and save the day!
NO, you moron! I mean who would win the event?
I guess we'd have to call it a tie.
( grabs away 's spear and runs him through with it)
On second thought, never mind.
This is so humiliating!
I win!!
Not quite!
( jumps behind  and pushes the big red button that says "DO NOT PUSH".)
Oh no.
( ducks as  explodes)
I'm not through yet!
( reaches into his back pocket and pulls out a Starman)
Take this! (breaks free and punches )
Arrrrggghhh!! (He starts to fall)
So is it a draw?
No! You still have to defeat Dr. Wily!
Leave that to--
( falls on , blowing up the saucer)
Since Mario knocked Shade Man onto Wily, Mario wins!
: WHAT?!!
Ahh, he just got lucky!
We're all tied up at 1 point apiece. Our next event was going to be the cow dodging event, but obviously, it had to be scrapped. So...
What are we doing instead?
( falls on .)
Ow.
(In the writers' box,  whistles innocently)
Ohh... I think I understand what this event is-- AAAAAHHHH!!! (falls into a trapdoor)
(standing next to a lever) I love doing that.
I win, right?

Wrong!
(Bedside table falls on )
Bedside table: Moo.
Oh well... next event, I guess.
(The table and  mysteriously disappear, as  comes in)
Guess what! I landed at Mr. Miyamoto's house and he told me...
How could I be at my house? I'm here.
What the...?!
The next event is a footrace!
Uhhh... what's the catch?
We've covered the track with landmines!
(sarcastic) Great.
Annnnd... go!
(They start to run.  carefully avoids the mines,  jumps over them.  runs straight forward.)
What does he think he's--
***BOOM!!***
Aaaaaaaahhh!!
Mama mia! He's headed straight toward the finish line!
( run as fast as they can)
***BOOM!!*** ***BOOM!!***
: Aaaaahhhhh!!!
( goes flying into the lake.  lands up in the stands)
What do you think you're doing in my seat, Jumpman?!
( hits  with his cane)
Uggghhh...
( lands at the finish line, in a twitching heap)
Congratulations, Wario! You've won!!
...Medic. (collapses)
(After  heals  (then demands a million rupees in return), the contestants are ready for Event #6.)
This event is an obstacle course. You'll crawl through hollow logs, then climb up a ladder while the Hammer Brothers try to knock you down. At the top, use vines to swing over the pit. Donkey Kong is standing on the other side.
Heya.
First one to tag DK wins! Ready? GO!!
(They start through the logs, but  is too fat to get through)
Hey, my butt's stuck!
( tries to free himself, and the log starts to roll)
Whooooaaa!!!
(It rolls into a ravine. Meanwhile,  have made it to the ladders)
(thinking) If I put Superglue on my hands, the Hammer Bros. can't knock me down!
(So  puts Superglue on his hands and starts climbing)
(Suddenly,  realizes he's stuck to the ladder)
Aw poopie.
(The ladder falls backwards and lands on , just as  finishes the course and tags .)
And it's 2-2-1 heading into our seventh event! In this one, our contestants try for high scores in the bonus games from Street Fighter II! Mario must demolish a car, Luigi a brick wall, and Wario must destroy barrels which will be rolling down from above! Ready? Go!
( is attacking the car when it suddenly drives off)
(at the wheel) Gwahaha!
What the...?! Get back here!! (chases the car)
*CRUNCH!*
Uggghhh... (falls over as a barrel landed on him)
(from above) Oops, sorry!
( finishes off the brick wall with his spinning punch from Super Smash Brothers)
We're tied at 2 apiece!
(dazed) Aren't there any commercial breaks?
Nope.
Urrrgh.
The next event is a Dragon Ball Z-style battle! Ready? Go!
(Suddenly, all 3 start firing massive Ki blasts at each other!)
WHOA! Where'd they learn to do THAT?!
Vegeta's been giving lessons.
This could take a while...
(Meanwhile, outside the arena)

So this is the BOTVGH Archive?
Not much to look at.
Don't let your guard down, this place can be hazardous to your health... that's why I've teamed up with you. And with no cows this season, this may be our best chance to destroy them!
And how are we gonna do that?
Easy. There's something called "BOTVGH Olympics" today and EVERYONE is there! All we have to do is sneak into the stadium and plant some bombs... and BOTVGH will be no more! BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!
Um... great.
So how are we supposed to get in?
????: You don't!
All 3 villains: Huh?!
(???? reveals himself to be )
YOU!!
You didn't think H Cuz would forget to have security here, did you?

So? You think you can beat us?
Maybe not by myself, but I have company!
Who, X?
?????: Wrong, bucko!
(A lightning bolt hits )
Ta-da!
We still outnumber you!
?????: Oh yeah?!

Now what?
( appears!)
You think you can take us on?
(Meanwhile, inside, , &  were STILL firing Ki blasts)
Do you get the feeling there's more excitement outside than there is in here?
Speak for yourself.
Uh, guys, don't look now, but Sonic the Hedgehog is outside with Sephiroth and Sigma fighting Zero, Kamek, and Samus!
All: WHAT?!
(They look outside)
Sigma, I guess I'll just have to kill you... again!
( attacks with the Beam Sabre, but  blocks it)
Give up, Zero! You were destined to follow me!
Oh, don't start THAT again.
Hey Kamek, want me to show you some REAL magic?!
( starts chanting)
No thanks.
( mutes )
Now, what was that?
......
You're really starting to tick me off, bounty hunter!
Well, deal with it!
( tries to spin-dash into , but she blasts him)
Ouch.
You see, Zero, a long time ago, you were...
Zzzzzzzzzz.....
Wake up you fool!
Zzzzzz....
Robots don't sleep, Zero.
They don't? Oh yeah, they don't. Man, my first day at BOTVGH and already Cranky's habits are rubbing off on me.
I don't even know you!
, & : HUH?!
(They look up and see all the BOTVGH characters watching them!)
Oh, just ignore us, kids. We're not here.
We're not??
(hits  with his cane) We ARE, but just pretend like... oh, forget it.
I thought forgetting things was your job, Cranky!
HEY! That's my line!
What're you gonna do about it, punk?!
THIS!!
( jumps down and punches  in the jaw!)
Yeah! Get him, Jumpman!
( also punches  in the jaw)
What the...?!
(yelling at ) NOT YOU, you moron! Why you couldn't... uh, hey wait a second. Dang...
Come on, people, let's go help them!
All except : YEAH!!!
I wish I could, really I do, but...
You've been impaled on your own spear. Deal.
Waaaaaaaah!
Hey Sephiroth, bring it on!
OK, you asked for it!
( shoots a fireball at , who knocks it back into  with the Master Sword!)
HA!!
My hero! (kisses )
LINK! Quit daydreaming!
Huh? Daydreaming?! But Samus...
Samus is over there! (points to where  is shooting missiles at )
(dejected) Oh.
You fools, you'll never defeat me!
Never?
NEVER!!
( eats 's shield)
HEY! I paid a lot of money for that!
You want your money back?
YES!!!!
(A very large bag of coins crushes )
Heh. ^_^
Chalk one up for the good guys!

Uh guys, look out!
( becomes Kaiser Sigma )
Ha ha ha ha ha! Feel my incredible power!!

None of you can keep up with my speed!
Maybe not, but I know someone who can!
Deion Sanders?
It's prime-time, baby!
Actually, I was thinking of using my Dodri--
( chases down  and tackles him)
Never mind.
Ummm... guys?
(They all turn and notice  holding up someone)
Who is that?
Oh no, it's Brock!
Well, at least he won't drool over me anymore.
Stop it. This is serious.
Ha ha ha. If you want your friend to live, nobody move.
Everybody: .......
( and  recover)
Good work, Siggy. When we get back to HQ, you get a RAM chip.
(childish) Yay!
Guys, something's not right here.
You mean, that Sigma is waltzing around with a goofy grin on his face?
Well, besides that.
I am NOT waltzing!
Looks more like the Tango to me.
Electric Slide.
The Twist.
Lambada.
You idiots! Don't you recognize the Macarena when you see it?!
All: Ohhhhhhh.
*ahem* Anyway... something else isn't right.
You can say that again! I've STILL got this spear stuck in me!
SHUT UP!!
I know what's wrong! (points to where  are chatting)
( weeps)
Umm, robots don't cry.
I don't care.
QUIT STALLING!!! I'm going to kill you all now. If you try to stop me, Brock dies.
If he's going to die anyway, why should we care?
Because you're good guys and you have to stick up for your friends... or something...
I'm not a good guy!
Ummm... did anyone notice that Brock isn't moving?
THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL YOU PEOPLE!!!!!
...You're all hopeless. I'm leaving.
Yeah, whatever.
( leaves)
Anyway... I don't think that's really Brock.
Where IS Brock, then?
(Meanwhile,  is coming out of the bathroom)
Lydia Karaoke: Excuse me, I don't think we should be talking about bathrooms here! There are small children reading this!
(Who the *@#^$ are you?)
Lydia Karaoke: I'm Lydia Karaoke, the network censor from BOTVGH:TND. The Fat Lady was out sick. And that's a naughty word you just used! I'm going to have to--
( and  come by)
Hey UDX, ain't that the network censor?
Yep.
Goody! Does that mean we get to beat her up, WWF-style?
Yep.
Lydia: Oh %&*@.
(Lydia jumps into the ocean and swims away. Anyway,  has just come out of the bathroom)
I hope I didn't miss too much of the Olympics.
(Back at the BOTVGH Arena)
So you don't think this is the real Brock?
No.
Well, you're wrong.
Prove it.
Uhhh... make me.
Make me make you.
Make me make you make me.
Make me make you make me make you!
Make me make you make me make you make -- Uh, what were we talking about?
I dunno. You tell me.
Make me.

Make me make you.
( grabs a hammer and bashes  and )
ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!
: Sorry.
( comes in)
Here I am! What's going on here?
Everybody: ......
Fine, don't tell me. Samus, wanna go out?
Spare me.
Hands off, pal, Samus is mine!
Suuuuuuure.
This is so humiliating.
You think THAT'S humiliating?!
Yes.
Ahem... remember us?
No.
What's your name, stranger?
Never mind.
It's OK. I know who you are, Kefka.
KEFKA?!
Whatever.
Aren't we supposed to be fighting?
Oh yeah!
(The fight resumes)
Er, H Cuz, you better wrap this up. This isn't a two-parter like your last ep.
All right, all right.
I'll help!
How?
Hey Sonic, you think you're so fast... wanna race?
I'm kinda busy here...
Hey everyone, Sonic's too chicken to race Deion!!
Grrr.... I'll show you! Come on, let's race!
On your mark...
Get set...
GO!!
( runs off)
And don't come back!
I can't believe he fell for that.
(Meanwhile,  is reading something)
What are you doing?
Reading this book "How to Beat Final Fantasy 7", by Red Virus from the World of Ruin!
Why-- oh, I see...
's voice: LOOK OUT!!!
Diddy? What--
(Suddenly,  appears driving the Madden Cruiser)
Hey, my bus!
( hops out. The bus keeps moving)
What the-- AAAAAAHHHH!!!!
(The Madden Cruiser hits , who explodes)
Sigma Virus: I'll be back! (It flies away.)
Good riddance! Now for Sephiroth...
Leave it to me!
Everybody: ?????
( uses a level 4 Limit Break on )
Waaahhhhh!! No fair, I'm leaving!
( leaves)
Whoa Bowser, where'd you learn THAT?!
Easy. I got 32,000 points at Battle Square.
Oh-kaaaaay.
Now that the bad guys are gone, we better wrap up the Olympics!
('s watch beeps)
'Fraid not. We'll have to end it in a 2-2-2 tie.
, & : WHAAAAAT! (they faint)
I didn't get paid enough for this.
(yelling at ) BACK OFF, BOZO!!!
(yelling back) Give it up Link, she's mine!
( is muttering darkly)
Wanna go out, Samus?
...............I guess.
: WHAAAAAT! (they faint)
Sheesh, get a grip.
Next week, another competitive event: the Smash Attack Games 2!
Heh heh... see ya there!
THE END
( finally wakes up)
Wha... where am I?
( spots  walking past, then  runs by screaming hysterically)
........I need to get out more.
