== Plot for "Stage 1: Counting on You, Sushie!" ==
In Bowser's Castle, Bowser was sweating while using an electric fan and a regular fan to cool himself down. Kammy alerted Bowser that Mario and his allies are heading to Mt. Lavalava to rescue Misstar and they already rescued four Star Spirits. Bowser was too hot to care about it and asked Kammy to get him something cool. Kammy gave him trading cards which Bowser found it "cool", but told Kammy that was not the "cool" he was talking about. Regardless, he was going to use the Star Rod for his wish but it was overheated. Kammy gave him ice cream and cold treats to help him cool down himself.
In Mt. Lavalava, Mario, Goombario and Kooper were sweating. Meanwhile, Sushie is not hungry as she is losing weight. The group found a river of lava without a bridge. Kooper pointed the Blocks that can help them cross over the bridge. Ignoring Kooper's idea, Mario used Kooper to cross the bridge. After Kooper yelled at Mario for not using the Blocks. Mario was thirsty, so Sushie gave Mario her personal stash of energy drink that she called "water", Mario was disgusted but realized he felt better. To Mario's surprise, a Spiny Tromp rolled towards him; Mario ran from it. Kooper attempted stopping the Spiny Tromp from rolling but he pooped; the Spiny Tromp rolled over him. Sushie was busy eating snacks but Mario demanded her to help. Sushie used Squirt and trounced the Spiny Tromp successfully.
Mario and company encountered Lava Piranha, the boss of the volcano, who has captured Misstar. Goombario used Tattle analyzing that Lava Piranha is weak to snow and used Snowman Doll. Mario was surprised to find out Goombario used Snowman Doll on Kooper. Lava Piranha summoned Nipper Plants to attack the group. Meanwhile, Sushie was weak; she smooched Mario to give him a "mouthful of energy and courage". Mario used Tidal Wave and successfully defeated Lava Piranha. Misstar broke free and thanked Mario. She used Smooch to heal Sushie reverting Sushie back to her normal self.
Meanwhile, Bowser was losing weight.
