"Cannonball" is the seventh episode[[note]]fourth in production order[[/note]] of ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitchTheSeries''. It first aired on October 13, 2003.
A blue pod with the number 520 on it gets knocked into a lake, and suddenly [[GiantWallOfWateryDoom a massive wave forms]] draining all the water from the lake. In the middle of the now dried-up lake bed, a pink creature with a big butt happily bounces around and takes delight on seeing the Pacific Ocean. Just when Gantu was being yelled at by Dr. Hämsterviel as to why he haven't received any experiments recently, the Experiment Pod Container announces that Experiment 520 has been activated, so Hämsterviel demands the big whale-like alien to go after it.
Over at the hula halau, Moses informs the class of a sand-sculpting contest being held on Lahui Beach soon and they will be choosing a design for the school's entry. He decides that Mertle's idea of doing a sculpture of famed surfer [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duke_Kahanamoku Duke Kahanamoku]] would be the best choice. Lilo, who just arrived after feeding Pudge the fish, tries to enter an "Aloha Tiki" design, but Mertle and her posse calls it "gross" and Moses reinforces that Mertle's design would be the best.
Lilo later returns home struggling to comp up with a better design for a sand sculpture. David and Nani sees Lilo in her misery and the former decides to take her to the Birds of Paradise Hotel's swimming pool to cheer her up, even though Nani tells him that the pool is for hotel guests only. At the hotel, Lilo and Stitch notice Gantu hunting down a pink experiment with a big butt. The experiment jumps in the hotel pool, creating a huge wave that causes a mess around the pool deck. After Stitch forces Gantu away, the experiment takes a gander at the close-by Pacific Ocean from on top a nearby palm tree, so Stitch launches the experiment away before it gets a chance to jump in.
Our duo briefly visits Kiki's Coffee Hut, where Stitch determines where the experiment has landed before they head home. Nani is relieved that Lilo's safe when they arrive after the incident at the pool, but when Lilo says she and Stitch need her only working car to get the experiment, Nani denies them as she heads to the rental hut, which is seeing low business as of late. Jumba overhears Lilo mentioning the water-loving experiment and tells her that she is dealing with Experiment 520, who is designed to creating waves so massive an entire planet could be devastated. Lilo tells Jumba that she and Stitch need transportation to get to the experiment, so Jumba shows them that he has repaired and upgraded Nani's dune buggy to help them capture experiments. After Pleakley gives Lilo and Stitch a pineapple, our duo drive off to hunt down 520. Meanwhile, Gantu arrives back at his ship, where he has 625 free him from the life preservers that Stitch stuck him in earlier.
Lilo and Stitch find 520 heading towards Kokaua Town's water reservoir. Stitch manages to stop 520 in time before the town's water supply could be washed all over the town, but Gantu arrives and tries to take the experiment away. Stitch knocks Gantu into a nearby tree and the two fight over the experiment. Although it seems that Gantu has won and taken 520 with him back to his ship, Stitch reveals to Lilo that he got 520 and lets the experiment out of the capsule. (Gantu actually has Pleakley's pineapple, much to the big dummy's embarrassment.) 520 is scared from all the fighting over him, but Lilo and Stitch convince the experiment that they're his friends, not Gantu. She then realizes that she and Stitch are supposed to be sand sculpting, so they rush over to Lahui Beach where the competition is taking place.
At the beach, Lilo tells Moses, who's judging the competition, that even though she may not know what "Aloha" truly means, she can help out others. However, he tells her that is exactly what "Aloha" is all about. Meanwhile, Gantu arrives to try to capture 520 again, so Stitch constructs a tall sand tower to protect his "cousin". Gantu attacks the tower, so 520 decides to jump in the ocean, creating a giant wave that only washes away Gantu. Lilo decides to name 520 "Cannonball", and Moses decides to give Lilo and Stitch's tower the blue ribbon instead of Mertle's Kahanamoku sculpture, as he believes that the duo's sculpture shows the most "Aloha" spirit. (The audience in- and out-of-universe are also shown that the tower also says "ALOHA" on it.)
Lilo decides that Cannonball's "one true place" should be making waves, but she wonders exactly where should she do so. Stitch then says "Nani!" as he knows her Rental Hut needs some business. As people rent boards over at the hut to enjoy Cannonball's awesome waves, Lilo wonders what happened to Gantu--[[AnswerCut and we are shown that he has washed up on the shores of]] UsefulNotes/SanFrancisco.

A blue pod with the number 520 on it gets knocked into a lake, and suddenly [[GiantWallOfWateryDoom a massive wave forms]] draining all the water from the lake. In the middle of the now dried-up lake bed, a pink creature with a big butt happily bounces around and takes delight on seeing the Pacific Ocean. Just when Gantu was being yelled at by Dr. Hämsterviel as to why he haven't received any experiments recently, the Experiment Pod Container announces that Experiment 520 has been activated, so Hämsterviel demands the big whale-like alien to go after it.
Over at the hula halau, Moses informs the class of a sand-sculpting contest being held on Lahui Beach soon and they will be choosing a design for the school's entry. He decides that Mertle's idea of doing a sculpture of famed surfer [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duke_Kahanamoku Duke Kahanamoku]] would be the best choice. Lilo, who just arrived after feeding Pudge the fish, tries to enter an "Aloha Tiki" design, but Mertle and her posse calls it "gross" and Moses reinforces that Mertle's design would be the best.
Lilo later returns home struggling to comp up with a better design for a sand sculpture. David and Nani sees Lilo in her misery and the former decides to take her to the Birds of Paradise Hotel's swimming pool to cheer her up, even though Nani tells him that the pool is for hotel guests only. At the hotel, Lilo and Stitch notice Gantu hunting down a pink experiment with a big butt. The experiment jumps in the hotel pool, creating a huge wave that causes a mess around the pool deck. After Stitch forces Gantu away, the experiment takes a gander at the close-by Pacific Ocean from on top a nearby palm tree, so Stitch launches the experiment away before it gets a chance to jump in.
Our duo briefly visits Kiki's Coffee Hut, where Stitch determines where the experiment has landed before they head home. Nani is relieved that Lilo's safe when they arrive after the incident at the pool, but when Lilo says she and Stitch need her only working car to get the experiment, Nani denies them as she heads to the rental hut, which is seeing low business as of late. Jumba overhears Lilo mentioning the water-loving experiment and tells her that she is dealing with Experiment 520, who is designed to creating waves so massive an entire planet could be devastated. Lilo tells Jumba that she and Stitch need transportation to get to the experiment, so Jumba shows them that he has repaired and upgraded Nani's dune buggy to help them capture experiments. After Pleakley gives Lilo and Stitch a pineapple, our duo drive off to hunt down 520. Meanwhile, Gantu arrives back at his ship, where he has 625 free him from the life preservers that Stitch stuck him in earlier.
Lilo and Stitch find 520 heading towards Kokaua Town's water reservoir. Stitch manages to stop 520 in time before the town's water supply could be washed all over the town, but Gantu arrives and tries to take the experiment away. Stitch knocks Gantu into a nearby tree and the two fight over the experiment. Although it seems that Gantu has won and taken 520 with him back to his ship, Stitch reveals to Lilo that he got 520 and lets the experiment out of the capsule. (Gantu actually has Pleakley's pineapple, much to the big dummy's embarrassment.) 520 is scared from all the fighting over him, but Lilo and Stitch convince the experiment that they're his friends, not Gantu. She then realizes that she and Stitch are supposed to be sand sculpting, so they rush over to Lahui Beach where the competition is taking place.
At the beach, Lilo tells Moses, who's judging the competition, that even though she may not know what "Aloha" truly means, she can help out others. However, he tells her that is exactly what "Aloha" is all about. Meanwhile, Gantu arrives to try to capture 520 again, so Stitch constructs a tall sand tower to protect his "cousin". Gantu attacks the tower, so 520 decides to jump in the ocean, creating a giant wave that only washes away Gantu. Lilo decides to name 520 "Cannonball", and Moses decides to give Lilo and Stitch's tower the blue ribbon instead of Mertle's Kahanamoku sculpture, as he believes that the duo's sculpture shows the most "Aloha" spirit. (The audience in- and out-of-universe are also shown that the tower also says "ALOHA" on it.)
Lilo decides that Cannonball's "one true place" should be making waves, but she wonders exactly where should she do so. Stitch then says "Nani!" as he knows her Rental Hut needs some business. As people rent boards over at the hut to enjoy Cannonball's awesome waves, Lilo wonders what happened to Gantu--[[AnswerCut and we are shown that he has washed up on the shores of]] UsefulNotes/SanFrancisco.
