A few more answers here. Again, please don't submit story or character ideas in this thread, and sorry but I can't answer questions about any unannounced future Disney releases including any "Lilo and Stitch" sequels, or give details about upcoming episodes!
- No, "Bunker" was not a real episode.
- As far as we know (aside from the out-of-sequence events of "Spike" and "The Asteroid"), Gantu (and/or Hamsterviel) still has Thresher (note correct spelling), Heat and Plasmoid.
- Stitch doesn't necessarily "die" in water; he just sinks. Remember he was underwater for some time in the original movie, but was rescued in time? Presumably he held his breath just as you or I would. Same thing in Spooky. He sank, but then realized that if he overcame his fear, he could just walk out along the bottom of the pool before running out of breath.
- The writers, story editors and producers come up with the names for the characters. Many of them I come up with myself. And the names often change during the course of writing the scripts. For example, "Sprout" was once "Weedy," "Houdini" was formerly "Blinky", "No-Si-U" and "Shelbo" (long story), and "Frenchfry" was once "Lardo."
- Jumba obviously changed the password for Amnesio after his arrival on earth, when he learned about "ohana." It's always wise to change your passwords occasionally!
- Lilo hasn't named 625 or 627.
- "Hydrated" as Jumba uses the word in 627 means "changed from pod form to living, moving, breathing form." When Jumba originally creates his experiments, they come out fully formed. He could shrink an experiment down to a pod once, then "hydrate" it (i.e., bring it back to shape by adding water) once. But he couldn't turn it BACK into a pod again -- until Lilo discovered the Insta-de-hydrator.
- Backhoe scrapes up vegetation with his molelike claws. Poki pokes holes in liquid containers with his spiky tail.
- Sorry but there's no further info available on Fudgey, Nosox, Stopgo, Alexander, and Doomsday at this time.
- The colors of the pods were originally intended to correspond to the series (1,2,3,4,5, and 6) numbers. But I think we lost track of that plan during the rush of first season production.
- About Lilo and Mertle (that's how she spells it, btw). Lilo does think of Mertle as her "friend." But Mertle's a pretty tough nut to crack!
Trivia for today: the Stitch-language phrase "Makamaka... Sasa!" (meaning "This way... Hurry!) is named after my wife. Her name's "Sa," and she was called "Sasa" as a child. And Makamaka means "friend and host" in Hawaiian. Once a year Sa hosts a Hawaiian luau party, and when she sends out invitations, she signs them "Makamaka Sasa."

Since you mentioned phrases, Mr. Winfield, what exactly does "meega nala kweesta" (is that the correct spelling?) translate as?
That's really interesting that the "Sasa" part of "Makamaka, sasa" was named after your wife.

^ Even I could tell you that it's something rude - and probably too rude for a forum like this. I think the humor is that we DON'T know exactly what it means, we just know that it's rude from the various reactions of alien characters.

Yeah, like the robot throwing up nuts and bolts. LOL. That gets me every time! HAHA! However, I wouldn't mind knowing what it translates to as well, if it isn't too rude where it actually can be posted. If not, and it remains a mystery, that's ok too.

Radical Dude is right. We only went so far as translate "meega" as "me, I, mine." I'm guessing "nala" is a vulgar verb, and "queesta" is a vulgar noun. Let your imagination run wild! Or not, depending on your "moral values."

I noticed that a few experiments make a lot of cameos. (Cannonball, Yin, Yang, Richter, etc.) Are they the favorites of the show staff?

Do you have any plans to turn Stitch evil again? I know you can't tell us how or when, but do you think it's possible?
Also, can you yourself at least look at our Episode Ideas thread and tell us which ones you'd like to make into an episode if it were up to you (or which ones you really liked)?

To Picard: Even if their was someone, he/she would never tell you if Lilo and Stitch were in it or not. Square and Disney has kept a very tight lock on the happenings of Kingdom Hearts 2. You'll probably just have to wait until it's officially announced whether or not L&S are in it.

I know that Breaking Point, but I'm trying to gather information for a Kingdom Hearts II site; even if it's futile, I still have to try.

Ive got a few more questions, and a story! And by the way, Im 12-years old. Will the Grand Councilwoman come back? Will there be an episode where multiple experiments wreck(sp?) havoc? And now for the story. At my church, there's an eternally hyper 9-year-old named KJ, who started a 'Stitch Club'. It started when he called me Kixx(look up at screen name), because I can beat every one of my friends at any game, just like Kixx can defeat anybody(except Stitch, in the end) and our friend, Jon, Sandwich Boy, because they're nearly completely alike. So then, nearly all the kids at our church and some of KJ's friends have 'become' experiments.
P.S. He told me to tell that story.

Kixx, it's already been stated multiple times that he can't answer any questions on any future episodes. Just to let you know. Oh, and the spelling is wreak. You were close though! :)

Actually, I meant if Nosox is the same experiment. I realize that I may have been vague in my question. It was really late when I typed it in.

The pudding stealer is #340 Nodessertro, designed to cause mass depression by stealing puddings, cakes, pies, and other sweets.
Yes, Nosox steals, hides or otherwise makes sox vanish mysteriously.
KixxStitchClub, thanks for the great story!
And sorry, I can't look at your Episode Ideas Thread, at least as long as I'm working at Disney. Company policy strictly forbids me from looking at or listening to ANY ideas from outside sources. Period.
As someone pointed out, this is to prevent Disney being sued later by someone who claims, for example, that they wrote a "brainswapper" fanfic (never mind that it is a "cartoon cliche"), and I saw it online and stole it.
So I don't look at any threads that obviously contains Ideas, and when I see a post that says, "I have an idea..." I skip to the next one!
One correction to a previous post... "Mary," the bouncer experiment, is number 455, as labeled in the movie. Jumba briefly considered giving it the number "086" as a little joke (on Jumba's planet of Quelta Quan, as here, to "86" someone means to remove them from the premises.) But the number was already taken by another experiment. I've edited the previous post with the correction.
Jess

I've got a few more:
1.How did Gantu get Nosox from Lilo and Stitch? (Or Vice-Versa)
2.If you are allowed to say, how did Jumba first become interested in Genetic Experimenting?
3.Also if not confidential, what was the first experiment?
4.Is the 400 series of experiments based on a theme? (Ex: 100-Mischievous 500-Elemental)

Okay, here's a quick question for you Jess.
In the episode Tank, we see that Yuki, Teresa, and Elena (Mertle's friends) do end up palling around with Lilo for a while. And that Stitch and Mertle work together (somewhat). Who came up with that idea? I have to say that as often as Mertle's friends back her up (for whatever reason) I would never had expected them to hang around Lilo.
