"Ouch. HEY! Watch it!"

We're Bob-ombs. We just ran away from the Koopa Bros. Fortress. We thought we'd at least find some peace in the village. Boy, were we wrong. The Fuzzies are running wild around here. All we want is a little peace..."

"You must listen! The Koopa Bros. in the fortress worked us too hard. As far as they're concerned, laborers have no rights. I will never ever go back to work in such a terrible place."

Of course we're happy we made it out of the fortress...but we still worry constantly about our imprisoned friends. They didn't make it out with us. Oh, what a tragedy! I wish there were some way that we could rescue them. Sigh..."

"We could always go back to the fortress, I suppose."

(After Mario falls from above)
BOMBETTE: "Oh, what was that? where did that fall from? Oh...I wondered what just fell, but...aren't you...Mario? I never in a million years thought I'd meet such a famous guy in a place like this. ...Who, me? My name's Bombette. In case you hadn't noticed, I'm a Bob-omb. Pleased to meet you!"
"What's that...? Why am I locked up here? Because I'm a menace! At least to these guys... Those uncouth Koopa Bros.! I was just one of many Bob-ombs working here. But those Koopa Bros....Once Bowser took over, they started working us into the ground! I couldn't take it anymore, so I exploded next to them. Yeah, that was a mistake. The Koopa Bros. didn't like it so they locked me in here. And then they locked up the rest of the Bob-ombs because they though they might rise up. You know, a Bob-omb rebellion! What do you think about that?...Oh sorry...it's a long story, I know. Anyway, Mario, we want to get out of here. Do you think you could help spring us from this place or what? Pretty please? If you help us... I promise I'll return the favour."

(Mario refuses to help the Bob-ombs)
Oh, you...won't...We're really hurting, here, Mario. And you won't help us? I guess I was wrong about you."

(Mario agrees to help the Bob-ombs)
BOMBETTE: "Oh, how nice! We'll be friends from now on, I can feel it! We'll make a super team, Mario!

"Those stinking Koopa Bros. worked us way too hard. They were making us work for 25 hours a day! Unreal! Nobody's life should be all work, right? I need free time to make my mark in the world. BOOM!"
