UnMarioWiki:Other Stuff/The Game:Murder Mystery Mansion/3

You go upstairs to Mario's study and find him reading a book. You tell him that you'd like to chat, and he pulls out two chairs and invites you to sit down; he'd like some company and the book was just about to bore him to sleep.

You politely thank him for his hospitality - and for the great deal that you got on your room. He replies that it's nothing and uses his phone to order two drinks to be sent up to the study. Toadsworth tells him that Toad will arrive with them shortly.

You and Mario talk for a bit, and, gradually, Mario tells you about the financial trouble that his mansion has been having, going into drab detail about his monthly bills. You wish him good luck with his business, eager to change the subject, but, shortly after you do, Luigi arrives in the room. He seems a bit surprised by your presence. "We're just chatting," Mario tells him. Come on, pull up a chair. There's one in that corner."

Luigi tells Mario that he would like to speak with him privately. You volunteer to leave the room, but Mario orders you to sit back down. "Nonsense!" he tells Luigi. "Whatever you have to say, you can say in front of my friend here."

"I really insist that we talk alone," Luigi persists. Mario sighs and turns to you. "I apologize. If you could excuse us for a few minutes . . ."

You take the hint and walk out of the room, seeing Toad approaching down the hallway to the study. He greets you and walks into the room. You don't think much of it, until you remember that Toad is carrying a drink that Mario originally intended for you to have. Of course, Mario and Luigi are obviously in the middle of a business discussion and probably wouldn't appreciate you barging in just to retrieve a drink, and you can always grab one at the bar. However, a part of you is still nagging, telling you that that's rightfully your martini. It wouldn't take but a few seconds to get your glass from Toad.

Choices

 * Forget about it and go down to the bar
 * Go back into the study and ask for your drink back
