After Yellow Toad takes his continue, we start the level. There are lots of walking Piranha Plants that stretch to block the path. We take damage from these as well as Piranha plants that float and blow spiky green balls in the air. We rush through, so we take a lot of damage, instead of waiting for the enemies to lower their attacks. We find the 1st Star Coin and reach the midgate. We try to power up as much as possible. We find a place that gives us a ton of difficulty: there are a series of vines over a few walking Piranha Plants. At first, we get on the same vine, which prevents us from effectively moving. It takes several tries, but we eventually cooperated enough that one would wait for the other to get off the vine. We reach a wheel that requires us to stand on the correct platform to turn it and move us. We were above blue water, thankfully, because we could not coordinate it enough for both of us to operate the wheel at the same time. I was powered up with the Ice Flower, so I took out the floating Piranha Plants while Yellow Toad swam. When the wheel reached the end of the line, he got back up. I took out some more of the walking Piranha Plants, but I lost my Ice Flower in the process. We reach a wall with a pipe and a huge Koopa shell. I use the vine to swing up into the shell, which contains another pipe. I enter the pipe and Yellow Toad waits for the game to send him through the pipe automatically. We use the Pow Block and get the 3rd Star Coin. We exit the shell and I use the vine to get on a ledge so I can get a higher score at the goal. Yellow Toad does not make it to the goal in time.
Later on, we both get Game Overs, so we had to replay the level, but we got through it a lot better and faster.
