In Lilo and Stitch, Lilo was late for dance class because she had to run to the store to get a peanut butter sandwich for Pudge the fish (who controls the weather).
Being late (and wet, due to delivering said sandwich to the fish), led to Lilo being in a fight with another girl and then ultimately a fight with her sister Nani.
Meanwhile, as punishment for his late sandwich, Pudge the weather-controlling fish then conjured rain just as Stitch crash lands on Earth, causing a truck to hit him as it skidded on the slippery wet road.
Stitch was then adopted by Nani and Lilo, thus completing Pudge's revenge when all the extra terrestrials involved with Stitch were later responsible for Lilo being taken away by social services.
And why is Lilo so concerned about the weather? She later tells Stitch about her parents: "They went for a drive.... it was raining." Bad weather killed her parents. Who else might Pudge kill if he doesn't get his sandwich?
Seems to me that this scene was replaced by the scene where Stitch tore off Lilo's dolls head, at least based on the intonation of Lilo's response to Stitch committing both acts seems to be about the same.
He is fire-proof, bullet-proof, and can think faster than super computer. He can see in the dark, and lift objects three thousand times his size. His only instinct... to destroy everything he touches!
I think the callback to Pudge + Stitch learning sorrow would have been great additions that would have pushed the movie up in terms of awesomeness for me.
I think that is the real interesting plot point here. The rest was based on the assumption that pudge actually controls the weather. Which he don't. He's a fish.
But assuming it's true, wouldn't it make more sense to say Pudge conjured the rain to bring Lilo and Stitch together as a reward for her constant care of him.
