[[Mario]] first meets Professor Frankly after he rescues [[Goombella]] from a gang of [[X-Naut]]s who are attacking her. When Mario and Goombella arrive at the professor's house, Goombella tells him that they need his help to study the legendary treasure of [[Rogueport]]. After learning that Mario possesses the [[Magical Map]], he takes the pair to [[the Thousand-Year Door]]. When the group leaves his house, the professor removes a rotten piece of a fence blocking a green [[Warp Pipe]] leading to the [[Rogueport Sewers]]. Before they enter, the professor asks Mario if they know about the battle system and the Action Commands, where the player has the option to learn about them in a tutorial. | [[Mario]] first meets Professor Frankly after he rescues [[Goombella]] from a gang of [[X-Naut]]s who are attacking her.

When Mario, Goombella, and Frankly visit the Thousand-Year Door for the first time, the Magical Map in Mario's hands indicate the location of the [[Diamond Star|first]] [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]] inside [[Hooktail Castle]] in [[Petal Meadows]].

Frankly mentioned that he met [[Princess Peach]], when she was on a journey of her own and also mentions another [[X-Nauts (organization)|strange group]] is doing the same thing. Each of Mario and his partners' subsequent visit to the Thousand-Year Door to use the Crystal Star they collected to uncover the location of the next Crystal Star is immediately followed by their visit to the professor and study it out. During each visit, Frankly, who is making progress in his research about the ancient city that preceded [[Rogueport]] as well as an ancient demon that plunged that city into darkness, talks about the latest e-mail from [[Princess Peach]] (that Mario receives after each chapter) and tells Mario and his partners the exact location of the Crystal Star they must collect next. In addition, tattle log entries that the player may have missed can be found in Frankly's bin. On the back shelf of his house, a miniature version of the head-shaped rocks at the entrance to Pirate's Grotto can be seen, as well as spherical objects bearing the Sun, Moon, Star and Puni designs seen in the Great Tree. | ||
After Mario and co. obtain the [[Crystal Star|final]] [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]] from the [[X-Naut Fortress]] on the [[Moon#Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|Moon]], the [[Shadow Sirens]] abduct Frankly, knock him unconscious, and then locked him up in a closet. [[Doopliss]] takes the guise of the professor in order to trick Mario into opening the Thousand-Year Door so [[Sir Grodus]] can enter the [[Palace of Shadow]]. Frankly later escapes and gives chase into the palace. After the [[Shadow Queen]] is awakened and possesses Princess Peach, the real Frankly is seen in one of the palace's darkened rooms, distressed at the thought of her revival. Following the Shadow Queen's defeat, he reunites with Mario and co. and reveals his discovery of a large treasure chest containing the true treasure. When Mario visits him post-game, Frankly reveals the contents of this chest to be a seemingly insignificant [[Dried Shroom]]; however, Frankly is excited nonetheless by it, as it proves that residents of the ancient city ate [[Mushroom]]s. | After Mario and co. obtain the [[Crystal Star|final]] [[Crystal Stars|Crystal Star]] from the [[X-Naut Fortress]] on the [[Moon#Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|Moon]], the [[Shadow Sirens]] abduct Frankly, knock him unconscious, and then locked him up in a closet.
