Tyrell dons the mask, becoming a bulky and malevolent green-faced being. Stanley flees with Peggy after he manages to distract the police with a mass performance of the titular song from Cuban Pete she then betrays him to Tyrell, who was released due to insufficient evidence connecting him or his henchmen to the robbery, for a fifty thousand dollar bounty. Later that night, Stanley meets Tina at a local park as the Mask, which initially disturbs her, along with being too strong and wild towards her, but he manages to win her over with his charm and sweet nature to the point they are about to kiss until they are interrupted by Kellaway, who attempts to capture him. It is also revealed that the mask's powers are only active during the night. The next day, Stanley consults Doctor Arthur Neuman, a psychiatrist who has recently published a book on masks and deduces that the mask is a creation of Loki. Shortly after, after Tyrell confronts him for disrupting the robbery and stealing his girlfriend, Stanley flees, leaving behind a scrap of cloth from his suit, which turns back into a piece of his pajamas.Īfter arresting Tyrell and his henchman, Kellaway finds the piece of cloth and suspects Stanley to be the perpetrator. At the Coco Bongo, Stanley becomes infatuated with Tina, who he ends up kissing after sharing an exuberant dance sequence with her.
To obtain the funds necessary to attend Tina's performance, Stanley again dons the mask and raids the bank, inadvertently foiling Tyrell's robbery in the process. The next morning, Stanley encounters detective Lieutenant Mitch Kellaway and newspaper reporter Peggy Brandt, both of whom are investigating the Mask's activity. With his newfound confidence and lack of inhibitions, Stanley indulges in a comical rampage through the city, humiliating several of his tormentors, including his temperamental landlady, Agnes Peenman, and the mechanics who gave him the faulty car. Upon returning to his apartment and donning the mask, he becomes a mischievous green-faced figure known as "The Mask", who can cartoonishly alter himself and his surroundings at will. His stream of thought is interrupted, however, when he finds a strange wooden mask near the harbor. Unable to enter the Coco Bongo to watch Tina perform and after his faulty loaner car breaks down while driving home, Stanley despairingly looks over the harbor bridge, lost in thought of what to do.
Stanley is attracted to Tina and she seemingly reciprocates. One day, Tyrell sends his dazzling singer girlfriend, Tina Carlyle, into the bank to record its layout for an upcoming robbery. Meanwhile, gangster Dorian Tyrell, who owns the Coco Bongo nightclub, plots to overthrow his superior, Niko. In Edge City, insecure cartoon-loving bank clerk Stanley Ipkiss is frequently ridiculed by everyone except for his co-worker and best friend, Charlie Schumaker.
