Toad wants to meet up with his old friend Hercufleas. When they get there they find out he is out of shape and watching the great balls of fire. A valuable yet dangerious item that shouldn't get in the wrong hands.moreless

This is a real revealing episode as well as character devolopment. Toad, surprisingly, is the hero of this episode. His friend Hercufleas is out of shape and loses what he is watching. So to get them back they must get Hercufleas back into shape. Toad is the one who helps out the most to get him into shape. This shows how much Toads cares about friends in need. Although once Hercufleas is back in shape they confront Koopa, but Koopa has an upper hands. The great balls of fire is in his possession. So Hercufleas is in need of help and Toad comes to the rescue with Super powers! The episode is entertaining and also has some funny moments. It may not be the best but it is the best with Toad being the hero.moreless
