Goombario and Bombette: realize they are falling slowly and see the parachute What the? 

Goombario: Is that, a parachute made from a giant bandana? 

Kooper: Long story short, Karry sent me the wrong size bandana one time and instead of returning it I turned it into a makeshift parachute for emergencies. 

Bombette: ... Wow. 

the three land safely on the ground 

Goombario: Oh sweet ground I missed you so much! 

Bombette: Kooper. You, saved our lives.

Kooper: Of course. Look, I might not be the brightest Koopa around, but I'll do whatever it takes to save my friends. Even if I have no business putting my nose in other people's business, I just want them to be happy. That's all I could have asked for since starting this journey. 

Bombette: ... Kooper. 

Kooper: Anyway, could you help me put this parachute back in my shell? I've never tested it before and I don't know how to... 

Karry: Kooper! tackles him to the ground Kooper you're okay! I was so scared when you fell! If I could have made a wish I would have wished you were born with wings and not me and... 

Kooper: Karry, listen. I'm fine. Really. I'm good. But, could you help me out with this parachute? 

Karry: Oh, yeah of course. Say isn't this the oversized bandana I gave you?

Watt: We were so scared! almost cries 

Bombette: Girls, please. I'm fine. All thanks to Kooper. looks over at him 

Sushie: Like as I said, me gills are never wrong. You do be lucky to have a Koopa like that willing to risk his life to save others. 

Bombette: He, he saved my life. looks down And I've been nothing but a jerk to him. 

Bow: What was that? 

Bombette: Nothing, it's fine. Let's just, take this time to celebrate, ok?
