A remake of my Dark Aspects of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door analysis for GameCube, now covering the remake on Switch! In this episode, I take to the sea and then cover my tracks in chapters 5 & 6. Is Podley responsible for causing Admiral Bobbery years of depression by failing to pass along a letter from his late wife? I do my best to impersonate a certain improbably larged-brained penguin detective to answer this question and more.
