Eventually he tries to follow Spook, Wendy, Roy and Ludwig follow him to a bar called Wonderworld. There, Wendy meets the barman, who is one of her followers on Instagoomba (his name is Travis Hawke). Meanwhile, Ludwig finds Larry but then they both find out that Spook is trying to assassinate Bowser to get into The Shadows. However, Mouser, Clawgrip, Triclyde and Fryguy resent him due his failure to kill Bowser. Later, Bowser is seen driving in his car, Spook uses two bullets to break the car but they both miss. However, the third bullet hits the car and Bowser crashes. Spook then takes out a Bill Blaster and tries to kill Bowser. But Bowser distracts him and then breathes fire at Spook before escaping. Bowser goes to a room in his castle, but Spook is there. Spook then reveals himself to be Tyson. Tyson tries to kill Bowser and get the throne.
