Annabel

Click here to see quotes from Annabel.
**Annabel** is one of the main protagonists of *Sammy & Co*. She is an octopus who's a student in Lulu's class in the reef village located in the Southern Seas.

## Appearance

Annabel is a pink octopus with turquoise eyes.

## Personality

Annabel is a sweet, cheerful, and naive young octopus. With an optimistic and happy attitude, Annabel cares for everyone around her, often showing much gratitude, and she likes helping them. She is a very bubbly young octopus who's a little absent-minded and ignorant due to she's raised by her overprotective mother Margaret all her life before she meets Ricky and Ella. Possibly Annabel's greatest flaw is also her greatest strength. Due to her strong sense of kindness and goodwill upon others, the young octopus can at times be gullible and it can occasionally lead her to a downfall (as she is naive), though. She is also completely unaware of the dangers of the ocean and can get herself into trouble without realizing, sometimes treating an adventure as a game. But Annabel is a very caring friend with her own sense of logic and willingness to help those in need.

## Relationships

### Ricky and Ella

When Ricky and Ella are searching for Sammy and Ray to rescue them after they're captured by a gang of poachers in *A Turtle's Tale 2: Sammy's Escape from Paradise*, the hatchlings both met Annabel and her mother Margaret. Because of Annabel's innocence due to she's a baby at that time, Annabel immediately befriends the two turtles and she and her mother both help them travel to get to "The Tank" to rescue the two grandfathers. Even around seven years after the events of the film and the events of *Sammy & Co* take place, Annabel is still friends with Ricky and Ella and they, along with Pipo, all go off on many adventures together. However, out of the two, Annabel views Ella as her best friend and they both support each other a lot. This is especially seen in "The Lucky Charm" when Ella believes that she's "cursed" with bad-luck and she thought Annabel is her "lucky charm" who helps restore her luck whenever she's near her. When it's revealed that the reason behind Annabel's good-luck is because of her lucky rock, Annabel encourages Ella that she doesn't need a good-luck charm to rescue Ricky when he's captured by a giant squid in the bottomless rift and that all she needs is her friends to believe in herself.

### Pipo

As the only members of the group to not be a turtle, Pipo and Annabel are very close despite being polar opposites when it comes to their personalities. They're both very loyal to Ricky and Ella, and they would often help them in need. Whenever the two turtles got into a fight, as seen in "A Pretend Fight" and "A Divided Reef", Pipo and Annabel would both serve as their mediator to help find an alternative solution for them.

### Margaret

Annabel loves her mother very much since she raises her since she was a young baby as seen in *A Turtle's Tale 2: Sammy's Escape from Paradise*. Since Margaret is now the seaweed harvester of the reef village, Annabel would often help her harvest the food supply for the other villagers, as seen in "Sweetheart Jimbo". And according to Annabel in "Fortune and Fib Telling", she wants to be a seaweed gardener just like her mother when she grows up.

### Eliot

Along with the rest of her friends, Annabel immediately befriends Elliot after he escapes from "The Tank" in "Wild Life" and they all help teach him how to live in the wild before they can get him back to his mother who still lives in the tank.

### Roby

Annabel met Roby when they're outside of the reef village with Ricky, Ella, and Pipo in "The Rival". When he visited the village, Roby told him and his classmates a whole bunch of lies about himself in order to gain their attention and Annabel believed it all. Later when Ricky got himself inside of a lobster cage and is about to pull away, Annabel, her friends, and Roby all work together to save him. After his lies are exposed near the end of the episode, he apologizes to him and his friends for lying and they all become his friends.

### The Rockfish

Like the rest of her friends, Annabel doesn't like Glitz, Crudd, and Babbles since they like to bully her and her friends, and the Rockfish are on Big Boss's side. Although, she can be a bit ignorant and often try to be friendly with them despite their obvious meanness. The only time in which Annabel successfully befriend a member of the Rockfish is Crudd in "The Pearl Hunt". When Annabel and Crudd were forced to be partners for a pearl scavenger hunt organized by Lulu to teach his students the importance of teamwork, she immediately bonds with Crudd and they play around instead of searching for the pearl. But because of Annabel's naiveness, the Rockfish would easily bully her and she would often unable to stand up for herself because of her kindness and lacking any strength to come up with a comeback to them. This is seen in "A Pretend Fight" when Glitz scolds Annabel when the latter doesn't move out of the way while the Rockfish are racing around the reef and she angrily blames her for it and Annabel apologizes to her for making her bump into her.

### Big Boss

Like the rest of her friends, Annabel doesn't trust Big Boss because of his desire to rule the reef village with an iron fin. And because of Annabel's loyalty to her friends, they would all often work together to foil Big Boss's numerous plans before he overthrows Sammy as the village chief and takes over the reef.

### Marco and Philippe

Since Marco and Philippe are both henchmen to Big Boss, Annabel doesn't trust them and she views them as her enemies. When Philippe briefly quit being Big Boss's henchmen in "Moray's Word of Honor", Annabel believes that he quit because he grew tired of being a meanie and she wants to give him another chance since he's briefly not working for Big Boss.

### Jax

Just like with Marco and Philippe, Annabel doesn't trust Jax since he's heavily associated with Big Boss.
