Considering the secret of the first Purrloin, one must wonder what secret this Purrloin bears.

On the ship to the next island, someone on board steals the most prized portion of a woman's jewelry collection. Cilan uses his investigation skills to try to crack the case, but will have to get over his fear of Purrloin to do so.

This episode contains examples of the following tropes:

  • Uncanny Family Resemblance: The Porter on this ship looks exactly the same as the Porter on the different ship that took the twerps to Honey Island, but states he is an "identical cousin".
  • The Unreveal: Cilan tells Ash and Iris about the Noodle Incident that led him to fear Purrloin, but the audience is not let in on the secret.
