Fountain of Youth
The Fountain of Youth is a magical fountain that appears in The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "Two Plumbers and a Baby". It is located in the Kingdom of Youth. The Fountain of Youth can make any person any age they want, which is due to a lever which regulates the amount of rejuvenating water deposited into the fountain. During the "Two Plumbers and a Baby" episode, three elderly people try to become eighteen again; however King Goo Goo Ga Ga Koopa pulls the lever to the maximum setting, which causes a lot of magical water to pour in and the old men become babies instead. Princess Toadstool then fell in the Fountain of Youth and was turned into a babified version of herself. When attempting to enslave Mario, Luigi, and Toad as part of his baby army, King Goo Goo Ga Ga Koopa is then thrown in the Fountain of Youth, in which he suffered his own fatel becoming a baby himself.
Mario and Luigi later reverse the flow of the Fountain of Youth, and revert her to a full-grown woman. They also free Koopa's baby captives by returning them to their proper age. The old people thank Luigi and Mario and express gladness to be adults again.
