Babyfier (episode)

"Babyfier" is the thirty-fifth episode of Lilo & Stitch: The Series. It aired on January 12, 2004.
==Plot==
An experiment that regresses people into babies activates and turns Stitch, Nani, Jumba, Pleakley and Gantu into infants, forcing Lilo and 625 to babysit them (Gantu for 625, and everyone else listed for Lilo). When Babyfier gets loose, Baby Stitch and Baby Gantu battle for the experiment, while Baby Pleakley and Baby Jumba (who still has the intellect of adult Jumba) have to mix an antidote for the age regression, requiring adult coffee in the remedy. In the end, Stitch unleashes it and everyone is changed back to normal (except Gantu, who remains a baby for now). Afterwards, Babyfier is given his one true place at the dog pound, turning old dogs into more adoptable puppies.

==Goofs==
*While it is unknown how Lilo and Reuben were able to find/borrow strollers for their babyfied members, baby Gantu has a blue stroller, but it later appears green.
*Some people who were turned into babies reappear in their adult forms before Jumba has found the cure. Also, the tourists in front of the hotel change in each scene.
==Trivia==
*Moral: Everyone has hardships and problems in their lives, no matter what age.
*According to online sources, as well as the episode's Disney+ listing, the episode's title is officially spelled with a hyphen as "Baby-fier" (or "Baby-Fier"), even though the titular experiment's name is officially spelled as the unhyphenated "Babyfier".
*The movie Sludge Mummies Episode Two: Attack of the Bones that Lilo wanted to see in the cinema is a reference to the film . Coincidentally, Disney currently owns the Star Wars franchise following the studio's acquisition of Lucasfilm in 2012.
*When Nani pointed out that Lilo was only three years old when the first Sludge Mummies movie came out, given that Lilo is seven years old in the TV series, the first Sludge Mummies film very likely came out about four years before the second Sludge Mummies movie.
*Mrs. Edmonds acknowledges Lilo's desire to turn Babyfier good, implying that she may know a little about the illegal genetic experiments, though it could have been just a lucky guess.
*Lilo and Nani's argument as they arrive back home after the latter caught the former supposedly sneaking out to see a movie is a nod to their argument from the start of the original movie.
*According to a calendar in the kitchen, this episode is set sometime in March.
*Even though Stitch was not born as a baby (being a genetic experiment), Babyfier still managed to turn him into an infant.
**This happens again in Leroy & Stitch, as in one scene, Babyfier turns three Leroy clones into infants.
***Both instances show that while experiments cannot age older (as seen in "Skip"), their age can be regressed.
***This also confirms that Jumba's experiments have some sort of age cycle, though just not equal with humans.
*It is revealed in this episode that Jumba has been a child prodigy, as he was very smart since he was a baby.
*In this episode, people are shown to have to be adults in order to buy 100% Kona coffee, but in reality, there is no age limit on purchasing it.
*Pleakley became jittery after having a double dose of the antidote (which contained 100% Kona coffee in the mix), even though he claimed otherwise.
*The baby form of Stitch in this episode was also used in the Disney Baby merchandise line.
