Lilo & Stitch (2025 film)

[Tuesday; Galactic Council Emergency Session on planet Turo in the Kweltikwan Galaxy]

Grand Councilwoman: [first lines] We have apprehended a dangerous threat in one of our very own labs. [the alien council gasps in horror] Quiet! We believe that this… this… monstrosity… is the product of illegal genetic experimentation.

[Experiment 626, a blue koala-like alien with four arms, two antennas on his head, three spikes on his back, and wearing a red jumpsuit, reveals himself in the canister as he wakes up]

Robot: What deranged lunatic would create something like this?

Jumba: [brought in by two intergalactic soldiers, handcuffed; clears throat] I prefer "deranged genius," but thank you for the introduction.

Grand Councilwoman: Dr. Jumba Jookiba, you were tasked with safely studying biological threats, not creating them.

Jumba: A threat? Experiment 626 is our Federation's most sophisticated weapon. 626 is unstoppable… [626 is seen breaking out of the canister with incredible strength] indestructible… [we see 626 getting zap by laser ...more like tickling him since he is fireproof and bulletproof] smarter than 100 SUPER COMPUTERS!

626: [now seen playing a game of chess with him] Tooba. (meaning "Checkmate")

Jumba: [frustrated, while knocking away the chess pieces] GAH, I DON'T WANNA PLAY ANYMORE!!!

Alien Council Members: It's an atrocity! Destroy it! I can't even look at him! He should be exiled.

Grand Councilwoman: Silence! He did not ask to be created. Perhaps, if he is so intelligent, he has the capacity to reason. [a microphone appears in the canister before 626] Experiment 626, show us that there is something inside you that is good.

626: [climbs down, walks up to the microphone like a shy child and clears his throat, everyone waits, Jumba glances at his creation and the court anxiously...after a moment of silence; speaks into the microphone] Meega nala kweesta! [The whole alien council gasps in shock; cackles wickedly]

Grand Councilwoman: So naughty!

Robot: [while barfing out bolts and screws] Throwing up. Throwing up.

Jumba: [embarrassed] I did not teach him that.

Grand Councilwoman: You have made our decision easy. He is clearly the flawed product of a deranged mind. Dr. Jookiba, your lab will be destroyed.

Jumba: [shrugs; not caring] Okay, just leave me 626.

Grand Councilwoman: And 626 exiled.

Jumba: [disappointed] Oh, come on!

Grand Councilwoman: Bailiff!

Jumba: [shocked] Wait! No, no, no, no! You can't do that! [The experiment's canister get taken away downward, much to his horror] NOOOOO!!!

[626 is then locked up in a cell, and gets a tracking collar fastened around his neck with guns pointing at him, controlled by the hammerhead shark-like alien dressed in suit and helmet]

Cell Manager: Don't get any ideas. These guns are locked onto your genetic signature. They're not gonna shoot anyone but you. [chuckles; 626 struggles and the guns move; He stops and thinks, looks at the two guns and they move; He gets an idea by drooling his spit and the guns aim but he slurps it back up before he does it again] Knock it off! Federation strictly forbids to be gross. Don't make me say-- [626 spits saliva at the Manager's face mask and the guns aim at him, much to his notice] Uh-oh. AHH! [removes his mask helmet and runs for it to save himself]

Jumba: [appearing while being escorted by two Federation soldiers] Oh, look what a pickle we've got here. [chuckles] If only there were a brilliant genius around to help you catch that monster.

Grand Councilwoman: [enraged] You! You're the reason we're in this mess!

Jumba: And I can get you out, if you release me and give me back my lab.

Grand Councilwoman: Nonsense, we'll simply vaporize the planet. Captain?

Captain/Pink Alien Girl: [excitedly] Armed and ready, Councilwoman.

Pleakley: [appearing; dressed up as a cowboy] HOLD IT! HOLD EVERYTHING! Excuse me, pardon me. You can't destroy the planet!

Captain/Pink Alien Girl: [disappointed] Aw, man!

Grand Councilwoman: Uh, who is this?

Pleakley: Agent Pleakley, Earth Expert, at your service. [tips his hat] Howdy.

Grand Councilwoman: Earth expert?

Pleakley: I'm an expert of all planets, flora, fauna and fashion.

Jumba: [sarcastically] Yeah, his outfit screams "expert".

Pleakley: Oh, yeah. I'm researching Earth species that's half cow and half boy. It's very fascinating.

Grand Councilwoman: Yes, marvelous. What's your point?

Pleakley: Oh, uh, Earth is a protected wildlife preserve. Yeah. We've been using it to rebuild the mosquito population.

Grand Councilwoman: [sighs] Crikey. Very well, Dr. Jookiba, you will travel to Earth where you will capture the escaped lab experiment known as 626. [Jumba smirks; to Pleakley] Agent Pleakley, you will be going with him. You are deputized to ensure he follows Federation rules.

Jumba: [disbelieved] WHAT?! I don't need a babysitter--

Grand Councilwoman: This is all very dangerous and it's quite frankly, you'll die. Do you accept?

[Pleakley looks disbelieved and took off his hat]

Pleakley: [excitedly] With every heart in my body, OF COURSE I ACCEPT! I'M GOING TO EARTH!!!

Grand Councilwoman: Do not let the Earthlings discover your mission, or I will be forced to intervene.

Pleakley: This is a dream vacay. I have so much packing to do!

Jumba: Well, well, well, 626. What hideous, pathetic planet is caught in your crosshairs?

Kumu: [as Lilo finally shows up late for hula class] Lilo, thank goodness. I thought you were gonna be on time today.

Lilo: I had to get a sandwich for Pudge.

Kumu: Is Pudge a friend in need?

Lilo: He's a fish. I forgot to tell you that.

Kumu: So, you're late because you fed a sandwich to a fish?

Lilo: Yeah. Pudge controls the weather.

[At the Pelekai house… Lilo sets up a record player, listening to Elvis Presley's "Heartbreak Hotel", and lies down on the floor after getting kicked out of hula class for pushing Mertle Edmonds off the stage when Nani failed to show up to support her]

Nani: [pulls up at the house in her pickup truck and finds the front door locked] Lilo? Can you please open the door?

Lilo: Read the note.

Nani: [sees the note taped to the door reading: "Go away!!!"; groans and takes it off the door] I'm sorry I missed your performance, okay? Papa's truck died and…

Lilo: [sarcastically] Wow, that must be so stressful for you. How 'bout you just leave me alone to die?!

Nani: [sees Mrs. Kekoa, the social worker, pulling up in her car] No, no, no. Not now, not now. The social worker is here! You can pout later, Lilo.

Lilo: That's not how pouting works.

Nani: Lilo, open the door!

Lilo: [turning up the volume] I can't hear you. It's really weird.

Mrs. Kekoa: Nani, we both know this didn't go well today. I can see you're trying, but you're too smart for me to beat around the bush here. I know it hasn't been that long since your parents passed away, but my job is to make sure that Lilo is in a stable environment. And I can't say that in good conscience right now. Listen, I know this is a lot. You're practically a kid yourself. Look, you seem like a goal-oriented person. We have a new director coming into town next week. And I would really, really love to tell him that you girls have turned the corner. So why don't we come up with some goals to achieve by then?

Nani: Yeah, yeah.

Mrs. Kekoa: All right, here. Three things. First, I want this house cleaned, including laundry and a fully stocked fridge.

Nani: Perfect.

Mrs. Kekoa: Second, pay all those bills I saw in the kitchen.

Nani: Yes.

Mrs. Kekoa: And third, file for health insurance for you and Lilo.

Nani: Got it.

Mrs. Kekoa: Now if you do those three things by Friday, I might be able to give you some more time.

[After Mrs. Kekoa informs Nani that she has a week to get things organized by Friday]

Mrs. Kekoa: [waving while driving away] Remember the insurance!

Nani: [smiles; waving goodbye to Mrs. Kekoa] Yeah, yeah! You got it! [mumbling under her breath while turning towards Lilo as she starts to charge towards her] You're gonna need the heath insurance for when I KILL YOU!!! [Lilo screams and runs into the house to the other door, realizing she's in so much trouble; takes a shortcut, scaring her and chases her down the hallway] Oh, Lilo! We took out the smoke alarm batteries! I'll show you can't breathe! COME HERE! [grabs her by the shirt]

Lilo: Aaah! LET GO OF ME!

Nani No. [Lilo grabs a pillow off the couch and hits her in the face with it, leaving her stunned] Ow... Okay. No, no, no, no, no, no. [wraps Lilo around in a blanket, before she tries to escape again, and holds her down] Why didn't you wait at hula?!

Lilo: Because you weren't there!

Nani: Do you want them to split us up?! Because that's what's gonna happen if we don't get it together! [Lilo licks her arm to free herself] HEY! Did you just lick me?!

Lilo: [storms upstairs to her room] Stop pretending you're my mom!

Nani: Oh, at least I didn't tell the social worker that I LOVE JUMPING OUT OF THE WINDOW!

Lilo: Well, it's better than listenin' to YOU!

Nani: GO TO YOUR ROOM!

'Lilo: I'M ALREADY IN MY ROOM!! [slams her door closed]

[Nani presses a pillow into her face, screaming in anger as Lilo slumps onto her bed, screaming in irritation; A goat screams too and then gets sprinkled with a water hose by a kindly old lady named Tūtū]

Tūtū: Hey, Albert!

Lilo: [seeing a shooting star falling from the night sky from the window] Oh, my gosh. I have to make a wish.

[Jumba and Pleakley arrive on Earth and disguise themselves as humans in order to start their mission in hunting for 626, when he crash-landed, terrorized a wedding party, and got run over by a tour bus]

Stephanie Lum: Aloha, I'm Stephanie Lum. Breaking news on a strange situation last night. A local tour bus ran over an unidentified wild animal who terrorized a wedding. The creature is recovering at the Nā Mea Ola Animal Rescue. More on that at 10:00, and hear from the wedding photographer.

Jumba: [whispering to Pleakley, believing that 626 is now at the animal rescue center] Bingo.

Jumba: Nighty-night, 626.

626: Jumba?

626: [disguised as a dog] Hiiiii...

Lilo: [amazed] Whoa....

Lilo: Don't you just love living on an island with no big cities? Nothing by miles and miles.... of water?

[626 screams in frustration while grabbing at his eyelids]

[On the road, 626 pokes his head out of the back window of Nani's truck with his mouth open and his tongue waggling while Lilo giggles]

Lilo: Get down! Get down from there! [tries pulling 626 back inside the truck]

Nani: Oh, my God. Control him!

Lilo: I'm trying. [yanks 626 back inside the seat, and onto her lap as she laughs]

Nani: Uh, no. [626 takes out a disc from the radio, and flings it away into another car] Did you just…? [The car swerves out of control as 626 claps, then laughs, and honks the horn] No. No. Stop. [626 scratches the seat; irritated] Did he just-- Great, Lilo! Now I have to stitch it up. [Lilo screams in realization, startling her and 626] Whoa! What, what, what, what?!

Lilo: That's his name! Stitch! [626, now named Stitch, smiles]

Nani: [sighs] Lilo, you can't just do that, okay? Seriously. I thought I almost hit something.

[They see Jumba dragging Pleakley (in human disguises) across the road and scream for impact as Nani presses the brakes, screeching their truck to a stop]

Lilo: There you are.

Stitch: [aiming the drink sprayer at Lilo who lift her hands in the air] Cassa! (meaning "Stick 'em up!") Hee...

Lilo: No! Stitch, put, it, down.

Stitch: Pessa?

Lilo: Yes.

Stitch: Naaga! Bala meega?

Lilo: You.

Stitch: No, no, no. Peppaso mabasinibo, and then, Bam-bam-bam-bam-bam! And then, huh, eek-eek-eek--

Lilo: No.

Stitch: Huh?

Lilo: I'm going to give you on a count of three, Stitch.

Stitch: Okay. [poses like a cowboy in a showdown with drink sprayer ready]

Lilo: One--

Grand Councilwoman: Oh, brilliant. Is it too late to vaporized the planet?

Captain/Pink Alien Girl: [excitedly] Finger's always on the trigger, ma'am!

Grand Councilwoman: No, no, I'm joking. What an adorable little psychopath.

[Lilo, Stitch, and Nani return home after Nani got fired from her job when Stitch accidentally causes a table on fire and blamed both him and Lilo for horsing around as rain starts pouring down]

Lilo: You know, you didn't even like that job.

Nani: [turns to her, not in the mood] I don't wanna hear it. [unlocks the door and they enter the house] And I (just) cleaned the house before work, so please don't make a mess. [Stitch looks around the house, oohing and ahhing, and shakes the water off his body] Lilo, he's getting water everywhere.

Lilo: I'm giving him a bath right now.

Nani: [as Stitch causes a little chaos in the kitchen] We're taking him back, first thing tomorrow morning! [grabs hold of him as he grabs onto the refrigerator] Why are you so strong?

Lilo: Well, I wished for him, and it came true.

Nani: We said "one day." That was our deal.

Lilo: [points to the drawing of their 'ohana on the fridge] What's that say, on the refrigerator?

Nani: We are not keeping this thing!

Lilo: "'Ohana" means "family." Family means nobody gets left behind.

Nani: Or forgotten. [Stitch opens the freezer door and hits her in the face]

Lilo: You've got to stop causing problems, Stitch.

Lilo: [while grabbing a lei and putting on around Stitch's neck] Now, be, good! Be good for one second.

Jumba: [lying on the bad, while recovering from almost getting mauled by Stitch] Why would he protect her like that?

Pleakley: [bathing in the tub] You don't think they're kind of cute together?

Jumba: He's not a pet. He's an experiment and a dangerous one of that.

Pleakley: I just think he's a lot cuter than you think he is dangerous.

Jumba: He has sharp teeth, he has claws, I designed him to be dangerous.

Pleakley: Dangerously cute.

[The Grand Councilwoman calls Jumba and Pleakley, frustrated with Jumba's failures of catching Stitch as well as alerting the humans about their existence]

Grand Councilwoman: We just intercepted a call from human authorities. Do you realize what you have done?

Pleakley: [innocently] Nope.

Grand Councilwoman: Play the recording. And take off that ridiculous hat. [Pleakley obeys as he takes off the shower cap]

Cobra Bubbles: [on recording] Code 51. We found something. Confirm.

Grand Councilwoman: And not only that you alerted the humans about our existence, but you still haven't captured 626!

Jumba: Grand Councilwoman, will all due respect, I'm not sure you know what's going on with 626. We have found, um… a glitch… Which is making it a little harder to get him off this planet. But don't worry, I'm sure I can figure out--

Grand Councilwoman: Enough! You're a glitch, you buffoon. I have had enough, Dr. Jookiba. You have exhausted my patience! Consider our deal terminated!

Jumba: [shocked] WHAT?!

Grand Councilwoman: No tantrums, Agent Pleakley is hereby deputize to detain you under Federation orders and escort you back to Turo immediately. [beats] Uh, hello?

Pleakley: Now? Right now?

Grand Councilwoman: No, later.

Jumba: YOU CANNOT DO THIS TO MY WORK!!!!

Grand Councilwoman: That is not a debate. A Federation detail is on its way to clean up your mess. [hangs up]

Pleakley: [after getting out of the bathtub, while putting on his bathrobe] Did she hang up? Jumba?

Jumba: [trapping Pleakley in the janitor's closet, after the Grand Councilwoman cancels their deal for failing to catch Stitch] It's time to do this my way.

[Lilo finds Stitch back at the animal rescue center after finding out he left last night, sulking in his cage]

Lilo: I thought I lost you.

Stitch: Stitch break family.

Lilo: It was an accident, like a mess up.

Stitch: But Stitch is bad. [sadly walks out of the cage] Stitch is bad.

Lilo: You're not bad. You just do bad things sometimes. "'Ohana" means "family." And sometimes, family isn't perfect. [picks him up and hugs him] But that doesn't mean they aren't good.

Jumba: Who is Mai-mai and Pai-pai?

Lilo: [bursting in] That's Mama and Papa's room!

Jumba: Oh! That makes a lot more sense. [blasts the door with his blaster and smirks evilly]

Lilo: [threateningly] Stop it, or else!

Jumba: Or else what? [walks closer to her] What are you gonna do?

Jumba: What's the plan, 626? Say you escaped the Federation. You think you're gonna just stay here with her? Live happily ever after on Earth? You're built to destroy 626, and you have! Look what's happened since you got here. Her family is falling apart. Let's just be honest. The only reason you picked her at that animal shelter was for your own protection.

Lilo: Is that true, Stitch?

Jumba: See, I don't think that's bad. I don't think anything you do is bad. I think it's genius. If you care about this little girl at all, you'll leave her here.

[Nani and David arrive at the wreckage of the house]

David: Lilo?

Nani: Lilo?! Lilo?!

David: They're not here.

Nani: I'm gonna check the back.

Tūtū: [showing up] What happened?! Where's Lilo?!

Nani: I don't know. She's not here.

Pleakley: [emerging from the broken wood] Actually, she's on the ship heading toward... [Nani, David and Tūtū scream at him; screams as well]

Cobra: [handcuffs Pleakley] Agent Cobra Bubbles, CIA.

Nani: Wait, what? CIA?

Pleakley: Agent Wendell Pleakley from the United Galactic Federation. I'm a fellow government worker.

Tūtū: What are you doing here?!

Nani: Now, where is my sister?!

Jumba: [to Lilo] Why don't you just admit that your little friend is a dangerous, freakish monster!

Stitch: [as Lilo presses the correct button, freeing him] Also cute and FLUFFY!

Jumba: Look, look, look, look! I had a pretty bad *Ohana* growing up. That's not an excuse. I just don't give it a little context.

Lilo: [smirks; waves] A hui hou, hairy potato. [activities Jumba's human camouflage device]

Jumba: Okay, okay, okay. And I can't propose that sometimes we need second chances. And that's just when I-- Wait, no! [gets ejected, due to him turning into human form, and is sent flying into the deep ocean below, screaming]

[The Grand Councilwoman and her intergalactic soldiers arrive on Earth to retrieve Stitch and take him into custody]

Nani: Stay behind me, Lilo. Get back. Get back.

Pleakley: Don't worry. They're just scanning for deadly parasites.

Grand Councilwoman: We're here to retrieve this dangerous experiment. Soldiers, take 626 into custody.

Lilo: [as Stitch gets handcuffed while Nani tries to hold her back, preventing her from interfering] No! Hey! Leave him alone! Let him stay!

Grand Councilwoman: I'm afraid I can't allow that. This creature poses a threat to your species. We are sorry for what transpired here. Rest assured, those responsible will be brought to justice.

Jumba: [now back in his true alien form, gets lifted off the sea by the spaceship while being re-arrested; last words] Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! How dare you treat a scientific genius like this! Hey, Grand Councilwoman, can you-- [gets clonked on the head] Ow! Oh! My precious brain.

Grand Councilwoman: As for 626--

Stitch: [interrupting] Stitch.

Grand Councilwoman: [confused] What?

Stitch: My name Stitch.

Grand Councilwoman: Stitch, then.... will be--

Stitch: Can Stitch say goodbye?

Grand Councilwoman: [surprised and hesitantly] Yes.

Stitch: Thank you.

Lilo: Come here, Stitch. We're gonna to miss you.

Grand Councilwoman: Who are these people?

Stitch: This is my family. I found it all on my own. It's little and broken, but still good. Yeah. Still good.

Pleakley: Grand Councilwoman? Can we leave Stitch with his new family?

Grand Councilwoman: Absolutely not. The Council would require supervision, and who would possibly want to stay on this dilapidated mosquito farm?

Pleakley: [excitedly] Oh, oh! Me! Me! ME!

Grand Councilwoman: Nonsense..

Grand Councilwoman: You all have shown me that there is good inside this creature. However, I cannot reverse the council's decision. Experiment 626 has been sentence to life in exile. [Everyone, even Stitch, felt sad at the fact that he might not be allowed to stay after all; until...] A sentence that would be henceforth served.... [smiles] here on Earth.

[Everyone were overwhelmed with joy and Stitch's handcuffs falls off and he happily runs into Lilo's arms]
