Toad on the Third Floor (SM64)

The Toad on the third floor is the last Toad that Mario is able to speak to, and is also the last Toad with a Power Star for him. Much like The Toad Across From the Tall, Tall, Mountain Portrait, this Toad appears before Mario could ever get to the third floor normally at 35 Power Stars. He hints on the hand on Tick-Tock Clock affecting the world inside.

(Before Star is Collected)"There’s something strange about that clock. As you jump inside, watch the position of the big hand. Oh, look what I found! Here, Mario, catch!"

(After star is collected) "The world inside the clock is so strange! When you jump inside, watch the position of the big hand!"
