[grunting]

[grunts]

[Kai grunts]

[Force rumbles]

-[all cheering]
-[dunnel bays]

[chirps]

[younglings shout]

[Kai grunts]

[no audible dialogue]

Wow! Planet Omaka is beautiful.

[grunts, stammers] Sorry.

And busy.

[giggles]

Well, there's a lot to do
to prepare for Dunkutu Day.

It's a great holiday, Wes.

Dunkutu Day is a chance to give thanks
for all the food we eat

and celebrate with friends and family.

There's fruits and vegetables and...

-[exclaiming]
-Huh?

[giggles, exclaims]

-[slurping]
-[laughing] Yes, Nubs. Also gomgourds.

Gomgourds?

You can't miss 'em.

They're big and round and...

Not here?

[Nubs exclaims]

[gasps]

[screams]

-[whimpers]
-[chuckles] It's all right, little fella.

We may not have any gomgourds,
but we have the next best thing.

Bofa fruit.

We'll still be able to make
plenty of tasty treats.

[coos, licks lips]

Wes, these are our friends, Tey and Roog.

They make the best gomgourd pie.

Nubs loves it.

Obviously. [chuckles]

Ooh. Sorry, Nubs.

There's no pie this year.

We had a bad harvest
and didn't grow enough gomgourds.

[speaks Poobian, whimpers]

Sorry, Nubs.

Gomgourds are off the menu.

-[Fiorna] You sure about that, Grandpa?
-[gasps]

[Roog] Fiorna?

What are you doing with my old pack droid?

We've been out looking for these.

Haven't we, HM-7?

-[HM-7 beeping]
-[speaks Poobian]

[cheering]

-[giggles] Yes, Nubs.
-[Nubs chuckles]

Wild gomgourds.

They're not as big as usual,
but they'll do. Right, Dad?

I know how much you love making gourd pie.

Oh, wow.

Yes, these will do nicely.

-But Fiorna, where did you get...
-[birds squawking]

-[Nubs, Lys gasps]
-Uh, that doesn't sound good.

Oh, no. Kroop birds?

-Here? They never leave the mountain.
-[Kai] Hmm.

[squawking continues]

[Nubs shrieks]

-They're after the gomgourds!
-[Lys gasps]

[HM-7 beeping]

-[HM-7 shrieks]
-[kroop bird squawking]

[yelps]

[HM-7 beeping]

-[shrieks]
-Save the gomgourds!

[grunts] Gotcha!

[Nubs grunts]

[speaks Poobian]

-[kroop bird squawks]
-[gasps]

[grunts, pants]

[exclaiming]

-Whoa!
-[kroop bird squawks]

No. Not again.

This happened last year! Huh?

Oh, no! [screams]

Look out!

[grunts, groans]

-[younglings giggling]
-Oops.

-[Nubs shrieks]
-[laughing]

[slurps, sighs]

-[squawking]
-[grunts]

[speaks Poobian, pants]

-[kroop bird squawks]
-[speaks Poobian]

Nubs!

[kroop bird squawking]

[whimpers, speaks Poobian]

[laughs, speaks Poobian]

Kai, Lys, help me.

[screaming]

-[straining]
-[Nubs sighs]

We've got you, Nubs.

-Yeah, but the birds have the gourds.
-[kroop birds squawking]

-[sighs]
-[HM-7 beeping]

I'm sorry, Dad.

I know you really wanted
to make pie for Dunkutu Day.

Those birds have wrecked everything.

What a disaster.

It's not that bad.

We can still have a feast...

[slurps] ...if we all work together.

Right, everyone?

[all] Right.

-[Lys strains]
-[HM-7 beeping]

[Tey] Here you go.

[Wes] One dollop of bofa fruit.

And a couple of bofa fruit slices on top.

[exclaims]

-[crunches]
-[laughs]

Nubs, we're supposed to be baking,
not eating. [laughs]

[groans, laughs]

We're gonna need more ingredients.

Fiorna, can you take HM-7 into the woods
to gather more bofa fruit?

-Sure, Dad.
-[speaks Poobian]

Wanna come with me, Nubs?

[speaks Poobian]

Just don't eat more than you pick, Nubs.

[speaks Poobian, laughs]

[HM-7 beeping]

Bofa fruit is great,

but Dad's really gonna miss
baking gourd pie.

[gasps]

Unless...

[speaks Poobian]

...we go get more gourds.

[speaks Poobian, groans]

I picked as many as I could earlier,

but there were still some
left in the patch.

What do you say, Nubs?

[speaks Poobian]

We'll make it back in time for the feast.

[groans]

If we do, there'll be plenty of gourd pie.

[exclaims]

[speaks Poobian]

[giggles] Lead the way, HM-7.

-[HM-7 beeping]
-[exclaims]

[HM-7 beeps]

[Nubs groans]

[speaks Poobian]

The gourds were just
at the top of this path.

Please, Nubs?

For my dad.

[groans, speaks Poobian]

Yes! Thank you. Let's go.

[Nubs, Fiorna pant]

[growls]

[speaks Poobian]

We're almost there. Just a bit further.

-[HM-7 beeping]
-[Nubs gasps]

-HM-7!
-[HM-7 beeping]

-[HM-7 shrieks]
-[speaks Poobian]

[HM-7 shrieking, beeping]

[straining]

I can help!

[Fiorna strains]

I've got him.
But I can't hold him for long.

[Nubs pants]

-[Fiorna, Nubs straining]
-[HM-7 beeping]

[straining continues]

-[Fiorna grunts, pants]
-[Nubs sighs]

[HM-7 beeping]

[sighs] You're welcome.

[speaks Poobian]

-[Nubs whimpers]
-[sighs]

You wanna go back, don't you?

[speaks Poobian]

I know it's getting dark,
but now that we lost the bofa fruit,

we have to go back with something
to make more tasty treats.

And the gomgourd patch
is right around the corner.

Come on. Let me show you.

-[groans]
-[HM-7 beeping]

-[Nubs pants]
-[HM-7 beeps]

-[Kai, Lys strain]
-[Roog] That's it.

Perfect.

And just in time for the feast.

It's getting late.

Fiorna and Nubs should be back by now.

Should we go look for them?

Let's all go.

It's not good to be in the woods
after dark.

[Lys, Wes panting]

-[Fiorna gasps]
-[exclaims]

See? What did I tell you?

Plenty to make gomgourd pie.

-[grunts]
-[exclaims, speaks Poobian]

-[strains, sighs]
-[HM-7 beeps]

-[squawks]
-[giggles, speaks Poobian]

-What is it?
-[speaks Poobian]

-[kroop bird squawks]
-[Nubs grunts]

Nubs, that's not what I think it is,
is it?

[squawking]

[speaks Poobian]

Let's get out of here!

-[kroop bird squawks]
-[Nubs shrieks]

[squawking]

Okay. Not that way!

-[pants]
-[kroop bird squawks]

[kroop birds squawking]

-Not that way either.
-[speaks Poobian]

What are we gonna do, Nubs?

We're trapped!

[Nubs whimpers]

[Wes] Nubs?

Fiorna?

HM-7?

I don't understand.

Where are they?

Hmm. Hmm? [gasps]

Everyone, I found something!

-That's HM-7's footprint.
-Hmm.

-Look. There's more this way.
-[Kai, Lys panting]

-The tracks lead here.
-Oh, no.

Up the mountain?

They wouldn't go up there, would they?

The mountain is dangerous at night.

We'll find them, Tey. We promise.

[squawks]

[Fiorna] Shoo! Shoo!

Uh, Nubs?

[squawking]

[HM-7 beeping]

That's our gomgourd!

-[kroop bird squawking]
-[speaks Poobian]

[groans]

[squawks]

[speaks Poobian]

-Shoo! Shoo!
-[kroop birds squawking]

[speaks Poobian]

[Nubs cooing]

[squawks]

[squawking]

Nubs, what are you doing?

[speaks Poobian, laughs]

Oh.

Gomgourds are what kroop birds eat?

[speaks Poobian]

[squawking]

[coos, squawks]

[grunts]

Here you go.

-[coos]
-[giggles] Yummy, right?

-[panting]
-They can't be much further.

-[birds squawking]
-[gasps]

-Is that...
-Oh, no. Kroop birds!

-Let's go!
-[Kai, Lys panting]

Don't worry, Nubs. We'll... [gasps]

-...save you?
-[laughs]

-Doesn't look like they need saving.
-[squawking]

[laughs, exclaims]

-[squawking]
-[giggles]

[giggles] Here, catch!

-[kroop birds squawking]
-[Fiorna laughs]

-[Tey] Fiorna?
-Dad!

-[laughs]
-Mmm.

-What are you doing here?
-We could ask you the same thing.

Is this where you found
the wild gomgourds?

Yeah. I took them because I know
how much you love making gourd pie,

but I never thought they might belong
to someone else.

So that's why the birds
followed you to the village.

Yeah.

They were just protecting their food.

I'm sorry, Dad.

I didn't mean to cause so much trouble.

Oh, Fiorna, the gourds aren't important.

What matters is that we celebrate the food
we do have with the people we love.

-[chuckles]
-Mmm.

-Oh.
-[exclaims]

-[chuckling]
-[speaks Poobian]

-[sighs] You ready to go home?
-[kroop bird squawks]

-To the feast?
-To the feast.

[Lys] Hmm.

So, what do you think?

This is a wonderful Dunkutu Day.

Even without gomgourd pie.

Right, Nubs?

[grunts]

[sighs, speaks Poobian]

[giggles, speaks Poobian]

Better than gomgourd pie?

[speaks Poobian]

-[kroop bird squawks]
-[grunts]

[speaks Poobian]

[squawks]

[groans]

[speaks Poobian]

[squawks]

-[giggles]
-[squawks]

-[all laughing]
-[kroop bird squawks]

[younglings clamoring]

[chittering]

Look out, everyone. Coming through.

[rat chittering]

[chittering]

I got you.

-[younglings screaming]
-[Kai grunting]

-[chittering]
-[grunts]

Told you I'd get you.

-[chittering]
-It's okay, everybody.

The snap rat is safe in this crate.

Kai, you caught it.

-[coos]
-[giggles]

-[chittering]
-Aw, so cute.

Uh, this snap rat shouldn't be
running around the temple.

I sent a message to Aree
to come pick it up.

He's on his way now.

-[Aree] Wow. A real snap rat.
-[snap rat chitters]

Thanks for calling me, Lys.
I can give it a safe home.

Kai, you caught it all by yourself?

Impressive. Most people
are scared of them.

Well, you know, with Master Zia
and Wes both gone on a mission,

I guess I'm the temple's creature catcher.

-I taught him everything he knows.
-[giggles]

I'm glad the temple has someone
so brave to protect it.

Bravery is just a part of being a Jedi.

Aree, can we see the other creatures
on your ship before you leave?

Of course. Right this way.

Aree, I might just have to join you
and Lys on more of your crea... [gasps]

-[exclaims]
-[Lys] Crystal web spiders!

Oh, they're incredible.

They have the most amazing webs.
They're so glittery and sticky.

[speaks Poobian]

Yeah. You almost never get
to see one this big.

[shudders, chuckles]

I'm, uh, gonna leave now.

Good luck with your huge bugs.

[Aree] Kai, what's wrong?

Oh. Are you scared of the spiders?

Me? Scared?

[scoffs] No.

I mean, not scared.

Just have to get off this ship
full of spiders right now

for different reasons. [chuckles]

It's okay, Kai.

-These spiders aren't harmful to people.
-[Nubs coos]

[Aree] She's right. You should always
be careful around wild creatures.

You don't want to disturb them.

But these spiders are safe.

Nuh-uh. No, thanks. I should still go.

[Aree] You might want to watch out.

-[Kai] Huh?
-[chittering]

[shrieks] What is that?

[Aree] That is a Spider-King.

[Spider-King blusters]

[Nubs coos]

Is that his nest?

[Aree] Yes. He's still making it,
but when a Spider-King finishes a nest,

it becomes his home forever.

Wait. You want him to stay
on your ship forever?

[Aree chuckles] No.

It wouldn't be good for him.

That's why I have to get the king
to his new planet fast

-so he can make a home there.
-[Spider-King bellows]

-Yuck, yuck, yuck, yuck.
-[speaks Poobian]

-[control buzzes]
-Huh?

-[doors opening]
-Oops.

Oh, no.

-[Kai yelping]
-Oh, be careful. You'll hurt 'em.

[Nubs shrieks]

[whimpers]

[Aree] Oh, they're everywhere.

-Uh, close the ramp.
-It's too late!

-Oh, no. They're heading to the temple.
-[speaks Poobian]

We've gotta stop them.

[Kai grunts] This is my fault.

I was so afraid.

[Aree] It's okay, Kai.

However, this isn't their natural habitat.

They could get hurt or lost.

Plus, if we don't get them back soon,
they'll cover the entire temple in webs.

And their webs are super sticky.

[Kai] Wow, they work fast.

[Aree] That's why we gotta hurry.

The spiders love these biscuits.

We can use them to help us
get the critters back to the ship.

Or another idea.

Instead of going into a temple
full of spiders,

I could stay out here
in case any come back.

[Aree] Kai, we need your help.

You caught that snap rat all by yourself.

We need those skills.

-Yeah.
-[speaks Poobian]

[inhales, sighs] Right.

Yeah. [shudders]

Time to take on some spiders.

-[spiders chittering]
-[Lys panting]

[Dee shrieks, groans]

[all] Dee!

[Dee] Too sticky.

Can't get free.

[both strain, grunt]

[straining]

[yelps] Help.

[Lys] Whoa. Those spiders work fast.

Let's get them back to the ship
before this room is all webs.

[speaks Poobian]

Uh, good spider.

Nice spider.

Scary spider! [shrieks]

[chittering]

Come here, you [grunts]

[Nubs exclaims]

[coos]

[strains]

[laughs]

-I have some biscuits for you. Yum-yum.
-[chittering]

This way, spiders.

Almost there.

-And go get 'em!
-[spiders chittering]

-[sighs] I think that's the last of them.
-[Nubs sighs]

I am so glad I'll never have
to be near a spider again.

-[chittering]
-Huh?

Uh, sorry, Kai.

-Looks like there's one more to find.
-[Nubs grunts]

[Kai groans]

[Aree] Oh, no.

These aren't regular webs.

-These are from the Spider-King.
-[gasps]

Oh. [whimpers]

Maybe with all the other spiders gone,

he'll get bored
and just go back to the ship?

[Aree] I wish.

But if the Spider-King is in the temple,

he's looking for a new place
to build a nest.

And if he finishes that nest,
he'll stay here and never leave.

-[Aree] Exactly.
-[speaks Poobian]

If we follow these webs,

I'm sure we'll find him
before he finishes his nest.

Why couldn't it have been
something less scary?

Like rancors?

-[Nubs sighs]
-[spider chittering]

[gasps, groans]

-[speaks Poobian]
-[Lys gasps]

[Aree] Nubs, wait.

If you're not careful you could run into...

-[Nubs speaks Poobian]
-...some webs.

Nubs! I'll get you out.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Remember, this crystal webbing
is really strong and really sticky.

Even your training sabers
aren't powerful enough to break them.

Now, we've got to hurry
before the Spider-King finishes his nest.

-We're running out of time.
-Hmm.

I think we can get around these
webs and still find the Spider-King.

Nubs, you okay there
for just a little bit longer?

[groans, speaks Poobian]

[Aree] I'll go first.

[panting]

[groaning]

[straining]

Well, I tried.

That's okay, Aree. I got it.

Hmm.

[chuckles, pants]

[grunting]

[screams, groans]

Uh, maybe I don't got it.

Kai, it's all on you now.

[gulps]

Maybe I should just call Master Zia?

There's no time, Kai.

We need you to do this.

-You've got to find a way through.
-[Nubs speaks Poobian]

[sighs] Okay.

[inhales deeply] Okay.

Get through these webs

and then it'll just be me
and the Spider-King.

[panting, exclaiming]

[screams] I wanna go,
but I'm still scared.

Why can't I stop being scared?

It's okay to be scared, Kai.

-[Kai sighs]
-We're all scared sometimes.

But you're also brave.

-We've all seen it.
-[speaks Poobian]

[gasps, whimpers]

Just breathe, Kai.

You can do it.

Be brave.

Breathe.

Right.

[breathes deeply]

[breathes deeply, exclaims]

[panting, grunting]

[grunts, screams]

-[Aree] Oh, yeah!
-[Lys] Yes! You did it!

I did.

Here, Kai. Take this.

Don't let him finish that nest.

Right. Thanks, Aree.

Now for the hard part.

[gulps]

Hello? Spider-King?

Your royal spiderness?

[Spider-King chittering]

[sighs, shudders]

There is no way I'm putting my hand
close to your mouth area.

Hmm.

Here, Spider-King.

Come and get your tasty treat.

[Spider-King chittering]

-[shudders]
-[Spider-King chittering]

[whimpers]

[gulps]

You are way bigger up close.

-[Spider-King chittering]
-And scarier.

Oh, it's not so bad.

Just look him in the eyes and say hello.

Nope. Too many eyes. Too scary.

[grunts]

I can't change that it's scary,
but I can change what I do with that fear.

-[shudders]
-[chittering]

Okay. Here we go.

Come on, Spider-King. This way.

[grunting]

[Aree] Thank goodness
you finally got here, Master Zia.

[Kai] Hey, everyone.

Say hi to the Spider-King.

[all screaming]

[Zia] Uh... [clears throat]

Lys, that spider is way bigger
than you described.

[Aree] Kai, you got it to follow you.

Would you like me to take over
the rest of the way?

Thanks for the offer, Aree,

but I started this
and I'm gonna finish it.

Come on, big guy.

Keep following the treats.

That's it. Almost there.

Just a little further.

It's been nice getting to know you better,

but I think we've spent
enough time together.

Go eat.

[Aree] There you go. All safe and sound.

-[sighs]
-You did it, Kai.

-[speaks Poobian]
-[Kai, Lys laughing]

It seems like you had
quite the adventure while I was gone.

Why don't you tell me all about it
outside, where there are less spiders?

Whoa.

Master Zia, are you scared of them too?

Yes, Kai. I am.

Which is why I'm so proud of you.

Jedi aren't controlled by their fear,

but that doesn't mean
they don't have fear.

What makes you brave is
when you can do the right thing

even when you're scared.

Oh, that's good.

Because spiders still creep me out.

-[chittering]
-[gasps]

Now, let's, uh,
go back to the temple. [chuckles]

-Bye, Aree.
-Uh, bye.

Sorry again about all the spiders.

I'm just glad they're all back
where they belong.

Until next time, creature lovers.

-Bye, Aree.
-[speaks Poobian]

Mater Zia,
how do you feel about snap rats?

[gasps] Snap rats?

Why? Are some around?

They're not my favorite either.

[Kai chuckles]

Oh, have we got a story for you.
