Tooka (episode)


Official description


Fostering creatures is a rewarding yet full-time job, and it's no different for this feisty tooka that Aree takes under his wing.

Plot summary


SF-R3 ("Aree") visits Lothal with CAM to facilitate the adoption of several tookas (or "loth-cats"). Aree attempts to serve them some biscuits but the tooka is unwilling to take it. He adds some leaves to the biscuits but the creatures kicks the bowl at CAM. Later, Aree serves them a full meal including cakes but the tooka vomits it out. The meal attracts several loth-rats, which arouse the hunger of the tooka who hunts them down.

Later, Aree takes the tooka into a cockpit, where it runs around. He also introduces the tooka to a playground which includes slides, balls, and a hamster wheel. This tires out the tooka. Aree brings the tooka back to the ship to sleep but it runs amuck with the ship's controls, causing an explosion. Eventually, the tooka settles down around Aree's neck. Aree concludes that the key to being a good foster parent for a tooka is nutritious meals, lots of exercise, and a cozy warm place to sleep. Aree admits missing the creature as it is taken away in a cat carrier. Aree then lists several fun facts including that tooka can be used for hunting.
