Part of 54.1, from docs/levels/level-01.md ("Spike" and "The fetch game"). The hub's Spike lacked several things the original does:

• Getting up (0x80083f24): Tommy within 30000 wakes him with animation 25 (mode 1, back mode 2), so he gets up and then follows. The port went straight to following.
• The toy in his mouth (0x800601e4 for char 6): picking a toy up gives hierarchy slot 0x24 its model: 678 1212, 679 1214, 680 1213. Putting it down (0x80062ac4) gives back his own 79. The port only hid the toy, so he carried nothing.
• The flinch: a toy that hits him (0x800511a8, char 6) plays animation 8, then he goes on.
• The can: 716 thrown starts the fetch (0x80060b44 lists 678-680 and 716), but he never takes it (0x80084cd0: not 716) and gives up there.
• The bump: bumping into a wall while fetching or bringing (state 9 for char 6 in level 1, 0x8005b614) gives up (mode 14), putting a carried toy down where he stands. Npc::bumped records a step taken back off a wall or an object.

The one-shot animations play out through the sequencer (91); the following waits until they end.

The test hub_spike_fetches_a_toy follows the oracle's run. Tommy throws toy 679 from (44000, 700, 36000) facing +z. Spike carries it in his mouth (1214), brings it back, puts it down (speech 190), and his mouth is 79 again.
