Later on, the two set the fireworks up in an auto junkyard. Tatsuya is concerned, but Kaoru reassures him over the safeness of their stunt. As the two set off the fireworks, Mario and [[Luigi]] look up from their Jeep repairing adventures nearby. Mario feels nostalgia for the fireworks show, but Luigi notices smoke coming from a garbage bin where a stray ember landed, causing the trash to light. The kids now notice the ensuing flames and become understandably scared. Mario and Luigi put out the flames with a bucket of water and scold the children's foolishness, saying that they shouldn't do these things without supervision, a bucket of water and such. Mario informs the children the true nature of fire as it can set houses ablaze through lit cigarette butts, neglected gas ovens and the mischief of young children. As the children imagine the flames transforming into a skull, they feel the full impact of what could've happened and apologize. The brothers tell them to go on home, but Kaoru knows that if they say they met Mario, they'd get weird looks, resulting in laughs from the group.

During the evening, Tatsuya resumes playing ''Super Mario Bros. 3'', yet Kaoru is uninterested. Remembering Mario's vivid descriptions, Kaoru contemplates on their flirt with flames which attracts attention of their mother. Tatsuya tries to comfort her by saying that Mario and Luigi were exaggerating, to which Kaoru says it was just from the game. This however makes their mother concerned about her children's sanity. A doorbell rings and their father enters, albeit hammered from another rice wine binge. Kaoru's mother tells her to pour a hot bath for her father and she complies, although not favorably.

Fire trucks race to the blaze as onlookers gape at the possible damage. When they arrive, Mario and Luigi (who are both firefighters) assess the situation's details from an escapee and ride the ladder toward the inferno. As they enter, Luigi handles hose spraying, while Mario searches for people that need help. He finds a collapsed mother and her crying baby. The brothers carry them both out which inspires cheers from Kaoru, Tatsuya and the gathering crowd of people. Once the blaze has been extinguished, the two race to the brothers to say that they've been diligent in fire safety protocols. The credits then roll and the video ends.
