use left/right arrow keys to switch the slide Anyways so yea I was thinking that after Mario and Luigi made Ben run off, you don't see Ben for a lot of the story, even in places where you would expect him to be. However, Mario and Luigi were about to get one of the last shards when they realize that someone already took it. So when they exit the area, they are greeted with a familiar-looking toad holding that (2nd or 3rd) last shard and as Luigi utters an "B-Ben...?" Ben jumps in surprise and then turns to the Mario bros. And then this project happens.
