"Topper" is the twenty-first episode of Lilo & Stitch: The Series. It aired on December 5, 2003.
Plot[]
It is Christmas Eve, and Lilo is trying to teach Stitch how Hawaiians celebrate Christmas, but Stitch becomes overly obsessed with the Christmas gifts. Jumba and Pleakley attempt to get into the Christmas spirit as well. However, when Gantu has an experiment pod giftwrapped for Hämsterviel, everyone mistakes Stitch's hunt for the box as a selfish attempt to hoard presents for himself.
Trivia[]
- Moral: Christmas is a time for giving and sharing.
- Reuben apparently has a soft spot for Christmas when he was seen decorating Gantu's ship with holiday trimmings and singing a parody of "The Twelve Days of Christmas".
- When Stitch was captured for his dysfunctional behavior, his screams could not be heard through the container, as Jumba designed them (or at least this one) to be soundproof.
- Ironically, this factor seems to be contradicted in "Snafu", as the captive Angel could be heard through her container when she sang her siren song backwards.
- It is possible that the container Jumba used for Stitch was a stronger one designed especially for him, due to his extraordinary strength and power, while the one used for Angel (and all the other experiments) was just a regular container.
- Pleakley attempts to use a bowling ball as a tree topper, which only causes the tree to break. This may be a reference to one of Larry the Cucumber's holiday tips from the VeggieTales Christmas 1999 radio disc, in which he states that bowling balls make "lousy tree ornaments".
- When Jumba hooked Stitch up to a mind-reading device that viewed the latter's memories, one of them showed (through Stitch's point-of-view) him drinking from a toilet. It is possible that Jumba did that to keep up Stitch's appearance as Lilo's dog, as many dogs drink out of toilets.
- Gantu shows a soft side when he dresses as Santa Claus and distributes presents to children.
- This episode marks the Galactic Armada's first and only appearance in the series, even though only their voices can be heard from inside their spacecraft.
