Plot
On planet Turo, the United Galactic Federation convicts Dr. Jumba Jookiba of illegal genetic experimentation; he has created Experiment 626, an aggressive and near-indestructible creature with advanced learning capabilities. Experiment 626 is escorted by Captain Gantu for exile, but 626 escapes and hijacks a space cruiser that crash-lands on Kaua{{okina}}i, Hawaii, on the planet Earth. Shortly after landing on Earth, 626 is run over by three passing trucks and taken to an animal shelter. The Federation's Grand Councilwoman offers Jumba an early release if he retrieves 626 with the assistance of the council's Earth expert, Agent Pleakley.
