Entry #42 in the [[Disney Animated Canon]], this 2002 traditionally-animated science fiction comedy-drama film was critically and commercially acclaimed when it came out, especially considering that Disney Animation was in a lull after the Disney Renaissance ended in 1999. Set mainly in the lush Hawaiian island of Kauai,
[[Parental Abandonment|Recent orphans of a car accident]], sisters Nani and Lilo are practically alone in the world except for each other. [[Cloudcuckoolander|Lilo, often lost in her own world]], neither understands nor is understood by her hula classmates, and [[Promotion to Parent|Nani, trying to be responsible]], wants to strangle Lilo about as often as hug her. Unbeknownst to them, Dr. Jumba Jookiba, [[Mad Scientist|the maddest scientist to splice genetics this side of the Milky Way]], stands trial for having created, illegally, a new life form (actually 626 life forms, but it is the 626th that we're concerned with). Stitch has a vast capacity for knowledge, spectacular combat abilities, and a programmed instinct to destroy anything he comes across. Escaping from the United Galactic Federation, Stitch takes a shortcut to the closest planet, which is 70% water (important because he is too dense to swim) - and miraculously lands on the bitty archipelago in the middle of the Pacific, the island of Kauai. He adopts Lilo as readily as Lilo adopts him; however, while Lilo wants a companion, Stitch wants a human shield to deter Dr. Jumba, who is hot on his trail, with the help of neurotic Agent Pleakley. However, Stitch [[Becoming the Mask|inadvertently learns]] the meaning of'' 'ohana'': "''[[No One Gets Left Behind|Ohana]]'' [[No One Gets Left Behind|means]] ''[[No One Gets Left Behind|family]]''. ''[[No One Gets Left Behind|Family]]'' [[No One Gets Left Behind|means, no one gets left behind or forgotten]]." In other words, [[True Companions]].
