Phantom Thief Panto

“Phantom Thief Panto” (“Si Penceroboh Panto”) is the 12th episode of the first season of BoBoiBoy Galaxy and the 12th episode overall in the series.

Summary
TAPOPS Space Station has been infiltrated by Jokertu’s accomplice, who has stolen Power Spheras in the station for a mysterious evil master.

Plot
The episode begins on a circus-themed planet. A bulky, unknown character learns of Jokertu's capture from two Power Spheras that he owns. The matter doesn't concern him, though, as Jokertu has served his purpose, and TAPOPS is oblivious to a second intruder in their station.

At the TAPOPS station, Koko Ci orders CardBot to release Jokertu from his card so that he and BoBoiBoy's gang can interrogate him. The clown immediately moves to attack them, forcing Ying to trap him in a Slo-mo Field. Once she releases him, he remains uncooperative, even after Fang relentlessly tickles him for an hour with his Shadow Fingers. Admiral Tarung drops by before 7 o'clock, to everyone's relief, to check on their progress. He offers the exhausted Jokertu his drink just as 7:00 pm strikes. In his severe persona, Tarung intimidates Jokertu with his immense strength by slapping the wall behind Jokertu and crushing it, asking if he wants to end up in the same state. Terrified, Jokertu blurts that he was sent to distract them from the presence of a Power Sphera thief.

Koko Ci rushes to check the station's security cameras for any suspicious activity, but finds nothing. BoBoiBoy and Gopal doubt Jokertu's story, until Tarung tells them to scan for how many Power Spheras are onboard and they detect an extra, unregistered Sphera, confirming that there is an intruder. Tarung splits the gang: Fang is to gather his team (Sai and Shielda) and guard Jokertu; Ying and Yaya are tasked with finding the thief; BoBoiBoy and Gopal are sent with Koko Ci to the Power Sphera vault.

Having memorised the whole station's map, Ying sets off with Yaya chasing after her. The boys and Koko Ci reach the heavily secured Power Sphera vault, where particularly valuable Power Spheras are kept in their dormant modes. They find the three Power Spheras are missing from their hibernation chambers, but their signals, albeit weak, are still in the station. Koko Ci puts out an announcement for all members of TAPOPS to search for the Power Spheras.

From within the air vents, the thief hears the commotion around the station and turns down a different vent, unknowingly breaking into Papa Zola and Cattus' quarters. The thief crashing through the vents wakes up Papa, who mistakes the thief for a white goblin and screams, making the thief flee. His high-pitched scream alerts Koko Ci, and, after failing to blame Cattus for the noise, he reports his sighting of the Power Sphera-toting "goblin".
