Ben and Ester met in Hot Stretch when Ben and Rook attempted to stop her from stealing the fusion engine, but failed. She then helped Ben and Rook fight the Kraaho when seeing that Seebik was not following the true Kraaho way. By the end of the episode, Ester took over as leader of the Kraaho from Seebik.
In Rules of Engagement, Ester brought Ben, Rook, Julie, and Hervé along to help prevent the Hot Spot from being under attack.
In Catfight, she went on a double-date with Ben, Rook, and Rayona. Later, she and Rayona watched Ben and Rook fight Nyancy Chan, and watched Nyancy, Looma, and Empress Attea fight for Ben.
In Fight at the Museum, Ester invited Ben to the Bellwood Museum, but Ben brought Rook along, not knowing it was a date. Ester, Ben, and Rook helped Kai Green protect the Orb of Pumapunku, but Spanner took the Orb. When Kai was sad, Ester comforted her.
In The Most Dangerous Game Show, Ester was one of the remaining contestants in The Most Delicious Game but got sent to the Null Void with all the other females that Ben knew. After all the females escaped with Ben, Ester told Ben that she was dating Antonio and is tired of fighting against fate.
Powers and Abilities
Being part-Kraaho, Ester is able to stretch her limbs at incredible distances like the rest of her kind. In addition, to this she is able to comfortably survive and live in areas that can cause discomfort or be dangerous to Humans and other species not adapted for those temperatures.
Ester can make her body less or more stretchy and flexible.[DJW 1]
Ester is agile and possesses considerable strength. She is also proficient in hand-to-hand combat, able to fight en par with Rook.[3]
Weaknesses
Due to her elastic nature, Ester can be tied up with her own limbs, leaving her incapacitated for quite some time before freeing herself.[1]
Like the rest of her kind, Ester has a harder time dealing with cooler climates. However, due to her half-breed nature, Ester is able to handle such conditions far better than a full Kraaho, feeling only slightly chilly in +100°F/+37.7°C temperature.[3]
Relationships
Love Interests
Ben Tennyson
When Ester first met Ben in Hot Stretch, they fought for the fusion device. When she realized the other Kraaho were doing evil things, she joined Ben's team. She introduced him to her friends, and they played an alien version of hockey. Ben turned into Waterhazard and splashed everyone with water to cool them down, even when Ester told him not to. He then brought her a towel, and she blushed as he gazed at her. She turned the water floating around him into snowflakes and ran off laughing. Rook told Ben she liked him. When she became the chief, she hugged Ben and told him she and her kind would be good neighbors. Later Ester's friends called Ben her boyfriend, and Ben at first denied it, but then excitedly asked Rook if he had a chance with her.
In Rules of Engagement, Ben offered to help clean up the Hot Spot with her. She excitedly agreed, wrapping her arms around his arm. She also stated that she is fond of Mr. Smoothy.
Sometime before Return to Forever, they went on a movie date.
In Catfight, Ester was in a double date with Ben, Rook, and Rayona. Later in the episode, she hugged Ben, and the two ran off to watch Sumo Slammers 6 3D again.
In Fight at the Museum, Ester invited Ben to the Bellwood Museum for a date, but Ben, not knowing it was a date, brought Rook since Rook enjoys museums. Ester was shown to be horrified when she heard that Ben and Kai end up together in the future Spanner comes from, while Ben himself stated there was no way that was going to happen.
Later in The Most Dangerous Game Show, feeling that Ben really was destined to be with Kai, Ester decided to let go of him. While trying to talk to Ben, who she couldn't get in contact with, Ester ultimately fell in love with Antonio. Eventually, Ester made her feelings known to Ben, breaking up on good terms, even stating she still liked him while remaining friends.
Antonio
At some point prior to The Most Dangerous Game Show, Ester and Antonio met online[DJW 2] and dated for a couple of weeks.[DJW 3] At the end of the aforementioned episode, Ester revealed to Ben (and, by extension, Kai) that Antonio was her new boyfriend. Ester explained to Ben that as much as she liked him, she was tired of fighting fate (since Ben was destined to end up with Kai) and had decided to try moving on to other guys.
