Meanwhile downstairs...
The phone rang.
"It's the call, the call, I'll get it, I'll get it!" Pleakley ran, but then tripped. "Oof!"
"Be calm," Cobra told the one-eyed alien before he would answer the phone. "Get the rendezvous information, then hang up."
"Got it?" Patrick asked.
"Calm, rendezvous, hang up," Pleakley listed. "Here I go," he then answered the phone. "Hellooo...?"
'Hello, Mr Ple-akley?' a woman's voice replied. 'Hi, this is the 'New You Wonder Girdle Company' calling regarding your order.'
Pleakley quickly hung up the phone and chuckled nervously, feeling embarrassed from the call.
"What was that about?" Patrick asked.
"Uh, wrong number, just..." Pleakley laughed nervously. "Girdle? Why would I need a girdle with my disguise because it's an undergarment... Why would I use a girdle?'
Cobra, Nani, and Patrick glanced to him. The phone then rang again.
"I DIDN'T ORDER ANYTHING!" Pleakley then answered with a yell.
'Vhat?!' Hamsterviel's voice asked.
"Oh, hello, how are you?" Pleakley smiled nervously, then whispered to the others. "It's Hamsterwheel."
'Hamsterviel! Hamsterviel!' Hamsterviel's voice told him.
Pleakley then gathered the information while Patrick and Cobra got ready go in the car.
Once Pleakley got the information, he rushed to Patrick and Cobra. "The lighthouse in 60 minutes, and don't be late," Pleakley said as he took the container and put it in his lap as they moved out on to the car. "That's what he said."
"Alright, then we better hurry to the lighthouse." Patrick said.
Cobra tried to use his keys on the car, but the engine wouldn't start. "This is an unfortunate implication."
"I know!" Pleakley had an idea. "We can take the Ridiculous Earth Vehicle!"
"Better than nothing." Patrick shrugged.
They then got into a tiny vehicle, but luckily, they could all hold and they drove off to the lighthouse to meet Dr. Hamsterviel.
"Where's Pleakley, Cobra, and Dad?" Darla came up to Nani.
"They went to the lighthouse to get Jumba back." Nani replied.
"But!" Lilo spoke up.
"I've got to get to work." Nani went to her own car.
"But!" Lilo tried again.
"No buts," Nani told her. "Just stay here and I think your friends need to go home now, Lilo."
"But!" The girls spoke up.
"No more buts!" Nani firmly replied. "Just stay here." she then went off to her car to get to work and then drove off.
"We can't just stay here." Darla said.
"And we won't." Atticus said.
Lilo and Stitch then smirked to each other. They were back in Cobra and Atticus's cars and went to catch up with Pleakley, Cobra, and Patrick.
"And to the lighthouse, we go!" Atticus called out.
Yuki, Teresa, and Elena were coming along anyway.
At the lighthouse; Pleakley, Cobra, and Patrick arrived.
"What a stunning example of Earth architecture," Pleakley smiled at the sight. "Why isn't the big light all flashy spinny aroundy?"
"The beacon hasn't been lit for years," Cobra replied. "Too costly."
Now all they had to do was wait.
"They should be here any minute." Patrick said.
Suddenly there was a light rumble and they all looked up to the sky to see Gantu's ship was coming now.
"And here they come." Patrick said.
The ship landed and the alien rodent was then revealed to them.
"That's Hamsterwheel?" Pleakely asked. "He sounded much bigger on the phone!"
"Stop talking about me, you gossipy pea-brains," Hamsterviel sneered. "Do you have the ransom?"
"Do you have Jumba and Patch?" Patrick asked the alien rodent.
"Bring out the four-eyed fathead and spotted Earth scum!" Hamsterviel demanded.
Gantu then came out as told with Jumba and Patch held in his hostage.
'Jumba, you're okay!" Pleakley sounded relieved.
"Patch, thank goodness you both are alright." Patrick sighed.
"Enough with your teary reunion,' Hamsterviel scoffed. "Commence with the giving me all the experiments."
Pleakley hated to do this, but have the container to the alien rodent. Hamsterviel took it in victory.
'623 experiments logged and functional.' the container said.
"623?!" Hamsterviel asked, looking insulted. "There's one missing!"
"Code yellow," Cobra held his earpiece. "Delay movement."
"We're sorry, it seems that one of the experiments got activated." Patrick said.
"My ransom demand was for all the experiments," Hamsterviel sneered. "You are trying to pull a sneaky thing!"
"What is one tiny experiment between old partners?" Jumba chuckled nervously.
"Yeah." Patch replied nervously as he secretly used his magic to destroy the device Jumba was wearing.
"QUIET!" Hamsterviel snapped. "I am blaming you both for this! Dispose of them."
"Gladly..." Gantu firmly replied.
"NO!" Pleakley yelped. "They're allergic to plasma blasts!"
"Listen to him," Jumba quickly nodded. "Is true!"
"Please don't shoot us!" Patch begged as he continued to use his magic secretly.
"WAIT!" the sounds of little girls called.
The others looked to see Lilo, Darla, Yuki, Teresa, and Elena with Cherry, Mo, and Atticus.
"We've got the missing experiment." Atticus said.
"What? Who are they?" Hamsterviel asked Gantu.
"A bunch of little Earth girls and some others who can be gigantic pains in the rear." Gantu grumbled.
"Well done, kids," Cobra told the small group. "Now give it to the diminutive gerbil-like creature."
"Hamster-like!" Hamsterviel glared. "Not gerbil! HAMSTER!"
"Okay, Atticus, let me see the experiment..." Patrick held out his hands for Sparky.
"No." Atticus shook his head.
"Atticus, it's the only way we can save Jumba." Cobra said.
"But we've got to save Sparky too!" Lilo said.
"You've named it?" Patrick asked.
"Yep, we're gonna name all the experiments." Lilo replied.
"Uh-huh." The girls nodded.
Stitch even agreed.
"Shut up with all your not shutting up," Hamsterviel growled. "Hand it over."
"Nope!" the girls looked away, folding their arms.
"We're not handing Sparky over to you, Hamsterwheel!" Atticus glared.
"IT IS HAMSTERVIEL!" Hamsterviel snarled.
"I thought that's what we said..." Cherry shrugged.
"Guys, whose side are you on?" Patrick asked in concern.
"We are not giving up Sparky, Dad!" Atticus told his father.
"But what about Jumba and Patch...?" Patrick asked, removing his sunglasses.
"Dad, there has to be a way to rescue Jumba and Patch without giving Hamsterviel the experiments." Atticus said.
"I'm afraid I don't know..." Patrick sighed.
"Either way, Hamsterwheel's not getting either of them!" Atticus said firmly, then moved up the vase. "BE FREE, LITTLE COUSIN!"
Sparky laughed and got out of the vase and flew around with his electric sparks. Patch continued to use his magic until finally the device Jumba was wearing was destroyed.
"HEY!" Gantu glared.
Patch laughed. "In your face, Blubber Butt!" He then soon felt his strength returning and where it gave him enough strength to break free.
"Are you okay, Spotted Dog?" Jumba asked.
"I'm free!" Patch beamed, then decided to help him out.
"Oh, thank you, Spotted Dog." Jumba smiled.
Patch smiled back. "Come on, hurry!"
They both then ran over to the good guys' side as Sparky was freed.
"Begin the shooting!" Hamsterviel commanded.
"Gladly." Gantu said before he started to shoot.
Cobra and Patrick took the others to hide away behind Atticus's car.
"Do you think hiding behind Atticus's car is wise?" Elena asked.
"Oh, come on, it's Atticus's car, what could happen?" Patrick smiled nonchalantly.
This then caused them all to run to Cobra's car.
Patrick shrugged with a small frown.
"Oh, Dad..." Atticus sighed. "Go and get your cousins, Stitch!"
Stitch went off to do just that.
"Stay calm, we're completely safe here." Pleakley smiled.
Suddenly Gantu shot the car and nearly obliterated it.
"You were saying?" Darla asked, deadpanned.
"Erm..." Pleakley looked nervous. "This could be a problem."
"Cobra, make the call now." Patrick said.
"You got it," Cobra nodded to him and touched his earpiece again to make the call.
"Oh, son, you don't know how proud I am to be your father," Patrick said to Atticus. "I was also hoping I would protect the family, but we were really broken when you disappeared from us."
Atticus sniffled and hugged his father from that, unable to keep himself from cracking down. Patch decided to join in the hug while Hamsterviel was being asked to surrender.
"Code green, now, now!" Cobra firmly called as Patrick joined his family.
"Don't shoot!" Lilo yelped for the alien rodent. "He's got Stitch's cousins!"
"Oh, no, that's right," Atticus said before wiping his tears. "Sorry Dad, I have to go save Stitch's cousins."
Patrick didn't even hesitate and let go of his son. "Go do what you must do, my son."
Atticus nodded firmly with tears and then ran off as a spaceship emerged from the waters.
Drell gulped from his goblet as he came right behind Cherry. "OUTTA MY WAY!" he then bumped her with his side, not even caring about the consequences. "HILDA SPELLMAN, WHERE ARE YOU?!"
Cherry shivered nervously. "You're drunk..."
"SHUT UP!" Drell grabbed her and threw her over his shoulder and walked off. "Just what do you peons think you're doing around here?!" He then saw where Atticus running to as and what weapons were pointing down to Hamsterviel and where this caused him to get out of his drunken state.
Cherry was sticking out of the sand now.
"Atticus Fudo, just what do you think you're doing?!" Drell called out.
"I GOTTA SAVE STITCH'S COUSINS!" Atticus called back as he ran, not caring who said that.
Sparky appeared to be on a pair of power-lines. "Cousins..." he hissed, speaking his own way, repeating the word, then zipped into the Grand Councilwoman's spaceship and electrocuted it.
"Way to go, Sparky!" Atticus cheered.
"Fire at will." the Grand Councilwoman commanded.
Before the alien cadets could do anything, they yelled out as Sparky fried their devices instantly.
"Major electrical surge, all systems failing!" one cadet told the Grand Councilwoman.
"Brace yourselves!" The Grand Councilwoman told her crew.
The spaceship was now going down and nearly crashed.
"Hurry up, you great lumbering idiot!" Hamsterviel sneered as he rolled the container onto Gantu's ship.
Gantu growled to his new boss, but he did as he said.
"This is Cobra with Patrick," Patrick reported as he still held Patch and Darla in his arms. "10-13, repeat, we have a 10-13!"
"Is everyone alright?" Patch asked.
"I'm okay..." Darla said.
"Same here..." Elena nodded with a smile.
"Thank goodness, our little broken family is back together." Pleakley smiled as he stood next to Jumba.
"I have family?" Jumba asked.
"Yes, Jumba, you have a family." Patch smiled to him.
"Ooh, I have family!" Jumba smiled and hugged Pleakley instantly.
"And you've got family too, Stitch," Lilo told her pet. "We're getting those experiments back."
"You bet we are." Atticus said before running off to Gantu's ship.
Lilo and Stitch ran with him. Cherry started to run with Atticus while panting slightly since she was not the best runner.
"Lilo!" Cobra ran after the little girl. "Lilo!"
Patrick actually stood by and allowed his son to go do this, knowing he would know exactly what to do.
Atticus was the first to get into Gantu's ship and then was Lilo and Stitch.
Cherry stopped and panted.
"Cherry?" Atticus asked.
"I'm not... Gonna... Leave you..." Cherry panted and weakly held out her hand. "You come first..."
Atticus soon used his magic and got her inside before they took off. Cherry panted and then fell flat on the floor.
"Man, I really need to get you into shape..." Atticus said.
"At least Drell's not here..." Cherry smiled in relief.
Lilo soon went wide-eyed as she saw someone big behind Cherry.
"Just breathe..." Atticus told Cherry and he then let her take a breather.
Cherry breathed softly and relaxed. "Okay... I think I'm okay."
"Good." Drell's voice said.
Cherry's eyes widened and she slowly turned around.
Drell took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes wearily. "Boy, is my head pounding... Atticus, do me a favor and get me a glass of water and a pill?"
Atticus soon used his magic and conjured up a glass of water and a pill for Drell.
"Thank you..." Drell sounded quite miserable, then popped the pill in his mouth and gulped down the water.
"Um... Drell...?" Cherry shivered slightly in fear. "Are you all right?"
"Please, Cherry, I'm not in the mood..." Drell waved his hand at her. "I've lost Hilda forever..."
"Would you like Atticus to see if that's true?" Cherry asked.
"I really don't care..." Drell replied.
"Man, you're a downer..." Cherry frowned. "I hate to see you like this..."
"What exactly happened?" Atticus asked the warlock.
"Well, Sabrina's mom is being stripped of her magical abilities, but she has to prove herself a true witch or else she'll never see Sabrina again and Sabrina's dad will be imprisoned for 500 years," Drell replied. "It led to an argument with Hilda and unless I find a way to solve this, she never wants to see me again... I'm not sure if there's anything I can do."
Atticus's eyes soon glowed for a bit before he smiled and he began to whisper of how Drell can allow Diane to keep her magical ability. Drell leaned in and smiled weakly.
Atticus smiled back. "And we'll help in any way we can..."
Drell smiled and gave Atticus a tight bear hug.
"I guess Drell's not gonna humiliate me anymore..." Cherry put her hands behind her back and gently rocked back and forth on the floor.
"You do realize he's back to his normal self, right?" Lilo asked.
Cherry looked nervously up to Drell. Drell gave her a firm frown, but then only ruffled up her hair and patted her on the head. Cherry winced and flinched, expecting worse, but just hung her arms.
"By the way, the next injuries you receive from me are totally unintentional." Drell then said.
"What injuries?" Cherry then asked.
The ship then took off and moved, the others fell to the back. Cherry fell next, then saw Drell coming at her and he squashed against her.
"Sorry." Drell droned, sounding very bored and monotone.
"Ow!" Cherry muffled.
Drell then sat on the floor and grabbed her like she was sticky gum off of the wall and stretched her out and set her down on the floor.
"You're not even gonna laugh at my pain?" Cherry asked.
"It's not fun anymore..." Drell replied. "I don't even bother, it just seems like bad things happen to you for no reason these days..."
"Wow, I just made the most horrible man in the world hate my life..." Cherry sighed.
They then soon saw a huge shadow over cast over them.
"Oh, great..." Drell sounded dull again.
