(コメットさん) 2001
12-year-old Princess Comet has no interest in her royal duties. She'd much rather play with little stars in the Haromonica Star-World system than fulfill anyone's expectations. On the evening of a ball meant to introduce Comet to the prince of Tamborine Star-World, he runs away, and the only way to know him is from the "twinkle" in his eyes. Now it's been decided that Comet will go to Earth to find him and set things right - but can she make the time between having so many fun adventures?
In this episode, Comet learns that cutting corners doesn't bring the most satisfaction. Meteo is annoyed by the rich couple she hexed into believing she was their child, what with their strange tastes and behaviors, but doesn't want to give up the life of luxury and find somewhere else to stay. After picking up the twins from school, Comet is asked to help in "kingdom-making," which in this instance means helping the father plant the fruit and vegetable garden in the backyard. After being told to close her eyes and listen to the sounds of living things in nature, and Keisuke swings by to pitch in, educating Comet on certain things a farmer must do, she comes up with a plan. In the middle of the night she sneaks out and sprinkles the field with star power, causing everything to grow - she figures the faster everything comes out, the happier everyone will be. But when she presents her home stay family with a few samples, the father says that they couldn't already be ready. Fruits and vegetables are best after time and labor - where's the fun in simply having it handed to you? When you break a sweat it makes everything more delicious. Comet feels humiliated and goes to fix the situation as a result. At the end, Comet decides that the best method to finding the missing prince is at a slow and steady pace. That way the end will be the best for all!
