Today we complete Paper Mario: The Origami King out of order by editing the game's save file: we skip past the part of the game where Olivia is crushed by the boulder and we see what happens if we have to rescue Olivia while still having Olivia with us!

Olivia has some very insightful and appropriate dialogue while aboard the Princess Peach Cruise Ship if we skip the part of the game where she gets crushed by a boulder with Bobby and Mario in Sweetpaper Valley. Here's what happens in Paper Mario: The Origami King if Olivia is never crushed by the boulder, and we skip to the Princess Peach Cruise Ship with both Bobby and Olivia!

This was done as an experiment for testing the potential of a speedrun skip to see what would happen if we could clip past the debris in the Princess Peach Cruise Ship.

The full experiment is as follows:
I have a save file that just got to Shogun Studios, with Bobby and Olivia in my party.
I went to the Great Sea with Bobby and Olivia, and got to the Princess Peach cruise ship.
I couldn't access the left side of the ship because of the debris that was blocking it.
I teleported into the VIP room.
I still had Olivia and Bobby with me.
Bobby went to get the safe, and the Gooper Blooper stole the box, as normal.
I still had Olivia with me after this, and Bobby had his regular angry face.
Olivia had some funny dialogue.
Defeated the Gooper Blooper as normal and got the box.
I went back to Toad Town.
Pipe 3 was still blocked in the museum, so I went back to Shogun Studios.
The blue streamer was still blocking the path to Sweetpaper Valley.

I've done some more experimentation with this, and I might release a video detailing this potential skip and what would be required, but right now it seems unlikely to be useful/ possible to pull off.

    Oh my gosh OLIVIA!!! YOU ARE MAKING ME LOSE MY MIND!!!
  • @distortlfy-mm
    Olivia really do be oblivious to the giant monster attacking the boat.
  • @chrisw9436
    If by "break" you mean stuck in the middle of nowhere, then yes.
  • @purpleplatypus7364
    Olivia can't hear the ruckus destroying the boat and Bobby thinks Olivia's in danger. I can't decide which partner is more "senile."
  • @loowee9798
    Was olivia’s hint actually ever seen in game?
  • @starma2520
    Well excuuuuuuse me Olivia if the party boat isn't loud enough.
  • @vladiv3623
    Olivia just couldn’t care less about what’s going on.
