7/10: How low can you go, Mario?

The other day I sez to Mabel, I sez, "Mabel, this guy done beat Super Mario Bros. with only seven hunnerd points." And Mabel sez, she says "Clarence, don't that seem a bit low?" And I sez to Mabel, I sez, "Mabel, that's the whole point is to see how low you can get the score." And Mabel sez, she says "Well, if 700 is the new low score than it seems to me to some feller's gonna then get six hunnerd points."

That Mabel, I sez, that Mabel is Nostradamus.
