Mario was now under Donkey Kong's control, and Pauline was tasked with rescuing the plumber in distress.

Honestly, that is one awesome Dad! If all men cared that much about the effects of inequality (no matter how seemingly small or insignificant) on the lives of the women they love, the world would be a pretty amazing place! Seriously.
