“Hi there, cutie! Welcome to Westside Goods!”
Peeka,Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Peeka isLahla's sister who runs theWestside Goods shop inRogueport inPaper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. Peeka acts as a sort of "bouncer" for thePianta syndicate. Anyone wishing to seeDon Pianta (and laterFrankie) must buy aDried Mushroom then aDizzy Dial in that order as a sort of password to gain access to him. Peeka then asks for a password in the form of a question to make sure someone did not just stumble on the order by accident and to further secure the syndicate's main building. The question is "what is your favorite color", and the correct answer is "yellow". Before asking this however, she asks Mario "what color is your mustache?"; no matter what Mario answers, Peeka realizes that was not the right question, and asks the right one. There is a door at the back of the shop Peeka opens if everything is answered correctly. This door leads to the secret back alley that is linked to the only entrance to the main building of the Pianta syndicate. She likes jewelry and bags. Her name is a play on the phrase "peekaboo", as in Peeka "Boo". Peeka and Lahla have a similar face toLady Bow.

In the Japanese version of the original, Lahla and Peeka wear bunny ears which, coupled with their cuffs and bow-tie, resembles abunny suit. In international versions of the original and all versions of the remake, they wear cat ears.

Tattle[edit]

  • That's Peeka, a Boo that works at Westside Goods. She's so pretty... for a Boo. I think her sister's Lahla, the Boo who works at the Pianta Parlor. (GCN)
  • That's Peeka, a Boo that works at Westside Goods. She's so pretty... and surprisingly un-shy! I think her sister's Lahla, the Boo who works at the Pianta Parlor. (Switch)
