Mr. Wong

Mr. Wong is a minor character in the first season of Lilo & Stitch: The Series who is Nani Pelekai's employer at the Rental Hut that he runs.

Role in the series
Mr. Wong appears as Nani's employer in earlier episodes of the show, before Mr. Jameson became her employer in later episodes.

In "Richter", he demands Nani to work at the Rental Hut after earthquakes in the area cause a mess in the Hut. She tries to get out of doing work on her day off, but he asks her if she wants to keep her job, implying that he will fire her if she doesn't comply. Before he leaves, he expresses his relief that his new milkshake machine is undamaged. Stitch would later irreparably damage the machine after he rides a scuba tank, forcing Nani to kick him and Lilo out of the Hut before they put her job in jeopardy. At the end of the episode, Richter would replace the shake machine by making milkshakes himself, essentially becoming an employee of Wong's.

In "Holio", he and Nani work tirelessly to rearrange the items inside the hut to impress an inspector from a rental company that he wants to work with. When Nani questions some of the decisions that he makes, he asks her if she wants a pay raise that he's been promising to her, motivating her to comply with his decisions. However, Nani gets called throughout the episode about her sister getting into trouble, so he lets her leave the Hut at times so she can deal with her sister. During the inspection, he does everything he can to impress the inspector and show that his business would be a good fit for the company, even after Stitch accidentally destroys the hut trying to get Mertle's bracelet (which, unbeknownst to Wong, has an experiment pod). When Nani returns to the destroyed hut after having to bring Lilo and Stitch back home, he tells his employee that, despite the destruction, the Hut actually passed the inspection while she was away. However, the company wanted too much money from him, so he told them off. He then lets Nani help her sister after she promises to help repair the Hut. At the end of episode, Jumba (in his human disguise) shows Wong blueprints for a new and improved Rental Hut, impressing the business owner as his Hut's reconstruction goes underway.

Nani mentions Mr. Wong to Lilo in "Cannonball" when she tells her sister that she has to work that day as business at the Hut is slow.
