Guido Mario is a heavily overweight cousin of arguably the two most famous members of the Mario family, Mario and Luigi Mario. For years, he believed that his cousins had gotten in some serious trouble with the mob due to their having disappeared without a trace, though believing there was nothing he could do he continued working in his pizza shop, making the best Italian food for blocks around. Little did he know that leaving his shop open instead of locking up before trying to fix his store's pipes would lead two others to the realm, as well: Tony Pasta and Vincenzo Ravioli.
