Nani Pelekai

she aims to prove to her newly assigned social worker, Cobra Bubbles, that she is capable of caring for her younger sister, despite her age. It is implied that Bubbles is the last in a line of social workers working with Nani since the car accident that took their parents' lives. Nani deeply cares for Lilo, but, like most older sisters, is often tired by Lilo's outbursts and quirks. Still, she will go above and beyond to make sure that Lilo feels better. To this end, she tirelessly tries to keep the household in check and maintain a good job to provide for Lilo, though this leaves her stressed out. On at least one occasion, Lilo and Stitch's antics cause her to lose her job. Instead of blaming Lilo, however, Nani sticks by her devotion to ʻohana and brushes it off, saying that her manager was at fault. Her devotions to Lilo also interfere with her relationship with David. However, he remains a constant friend to her and, later, becomes her love interest. Nani is noted to be a terrible cook, but excels greatly in mathematics and chemistry.
