Episode 07 - Jungle Pool SOS
Japanese Title: Janguru Puuru SOS
Based On: Volume 2/Chapter 7
Airdate: May 16, 2006
Summary: Imagine Haruhi's surprise and dismay when she's kidnapped after school to join the other Host Club members at a tropical indoor theme park run by the Ootori Group. The Tropical Aqua Garden is to open the following month, and for the day, it has been privately booked as a special premiere invitation for the club. All the members get a chance to rest and have fun together, while Haruhi learns a bit more about the third years as well.
Renge drops in briefly to give her opinion on Hunny's personality. She thinks he's trying harder to reinforce his position as the host of the "shota" type.
After Renge's cameo, the twins engage Tamaki in a water gun fight as Haruhi mostly ignores them. But, when Tamaki slips on a banana peel, he accidentally sets off a switch that makes a giant wave come crashing down in the pool Hunny is swimming in, sending him down deeper into the theme park. Mori trips on a banana peel before he can reach him. The Host Club members try to go after Hunny, but run into crocodiles. It turns out Kyoya is using the members as guinea pigs for collecting data on the theme park before it officially opens, much to his friends' disbelief.
The Host Club members have to travel through the jungle area of the park to try and find Hunny. Haruhi can't figure out what Mori's thinking most of the time, but she knows that he's worried about Hunny when he trips on another banana peel. It starts to rain and, as the club finds shelter, Haruhi finds out why the third years are so close. Mori and Hunny are cousins. Generations past, the Morinozuka family served the Haninozuka family, and though marriage blended the family together years ago, Mori still follows and serves Honey.
When Mori and Haruhi go off into the jungle alone to look for Honey, they encounter the private police team of the Ootori Family. The police mistake Haruhi as the missing friend of Kyoya's, who hadn't specified about the other Host Club members in the jungle. They think Mori is a suspicious target. Hunny saves the day when he comes swinging in by a vine, defeating all the police with his martial arts knowledge. Haruhi is shocked when she discovers that Honey is a karate and judo champion, while Mori is also a kendo champion.
After an eventful day, the Host Club members return to the spot where they were relaxing earlier. The twins suggest going to the beach, and Haruhi agrees. She thinks the beach would be nice rather than the artificial feel of the theme park. Tamaki, after hearing that, declares that the beach will be their next trip. Hunny thinks it's going to be fun, and Mori agrees with a small smile.

• Besides crocodiles, there is also a piranha pond.
