Huey is caught in the claw's grip, while theresearcher tries to explain the situation.

TheScience Claw is a mechanical device inPaper Mario: Color Splash. It is owned by theGreen Energy Plant researcher, who houses it in theGreen Energy Plant, where he does research and occasionally plays with it. WhenHuey attempts to enter the plant, the Toad suddenly pulls him. However, whenMario enters, Huey is in the claw's grip, which is attempting to drain his power. The researcher reassures Huey before introducing himself. After the Toad's explanation, Mario must pull Huey out of the claw's grip, which he is noticeably angry about.

If Mario speaks to the researcher, he informs Mario that he longs to do research while admitting that he wants to play with his Science Claw. However, the claw seems to disappear after the electricity is restored and the plant is re-entered, with the Toad and his chair now in its position.

During the interlude/dance celebration following the return of the greenBig Paint Star, the researcher appears in the plaza, moonwalking next to the stand with his Science Claw.
