## Plot

The episode begins with the final six contestants doing rhyming promos before Fox and Kirby are interrupted and taken away. The others wonder what happened to them, until they are taken away, one by one, with Bowser last, due to his massive size. The contestants recover and wonder where they are, when Gengar greets them, asking if they are ready for a challenge that's totally "balls to the wall". Gengar reveals the challenge is called "Barrier Ball Busters" and the object is to defend their hole from billiard balls, with the winner being the one with the least number of balls in the hole.

Each contestant chooses their hole and does well at fighting off the balls (with Sandile actually going into his) but Koopa misses and lets a ball get through. Sandile's strategy seems to fail him, as the others send the balls in his direction, and they seem to slip past him. The game continues, with all but Kirby at least getting one ball in their holes, or receiving injury from said balls. However, Gengar mentions that Kirby is likely doing well due to "Melee skills" which sends Fox into "Melee mode" and he kicks several balls into Sandile's hole, putting him out of the challenge (since he had six balls in there, which was "like, a quarter of the board"). The others continue to go back and forth, with Bowser getting hit in the groin with a ball, but eventually, the last ball ends up in Koopa's hole, ending the game. Gengar then counts the number of balls in each contestant's hole. Two treating it as a joke due to the innuendo, and declares the Kirby the winner with no balls. Bowser then muses on what happened to Sandile, who is shown nearby complaining about his back. Gengar rewards Kirby with elimination and a one-way ticket to the Rainbow Resort as a result of his win.

Later, Koopa meets with Sandile, who suggest they eliminate Luigi, noting what he did during Mario's elimination and that he could go mad with power if not stopped. Koopa reluctantly agrees and Sandile leaves, with Bowser calling Koopa and ordering him to find a spa bath to help heal him following the challenge, with Koopa wondering where he is supposed to find one ("FIND ONE!"- Bowser). As Koopa heads off, he encounters Fox, who apologizes for his melee moment and asks his help to eliminate Luigi, which he accepts before Koopa can answer. Luigi then appears and asks Koopa if he wants to help eliminate Bowser and he immediately agrees, then laments about what happened, saying he "dug his own grave... again." Meanwhile, Sandile meets with Luigi and Fox to discuss Kirby's miraculous luck in challenges with Fox stating that "he's Kirby"; both reveal how Kirby once saved them during the events of the Subspace Emissary, and Sandile scoffs at this, but Bowser appears and confirms it to be true. The three discuss who to eliminate, and Bowser tries to get them to go with Koopa, before Gengar shows up and transports them all away.

Once again, elimination is nigh, and the final two end up being Koopa & Luigi, and the koopa minion is the one chosen to leave ("eh, I don't care"- Koopa). Gengar is surprised Koopa is not shocked or upset about leaving, but he claims he should've left a while ago, and was happy that Kirby helped him when he was feeling down. Koopa wishes everyone luck before he is blasted off (with Goofy's yell playing) and Gengar notes how non-exciting the elimination was. He then signs off, wondering who will be voted back in the game, before introducing each of the eliminated contestants, most of whom give a little speech, revealing that the voting ends in two weeks, before he signs off.
