Hooty is dismayed at his best friend leaving, so Lilith assures him that they can be pen pals. During the events of "Separate Tides", Hooty attempts to warm up to Lilith as she spends her days with the Owl House gang, to no avail. One day, while Luz and King go off on a bounty hunt and Eda finds new ways to earn cash, Lilith decides to make a scrying potion for the gang to spy on the Emperor's Coven as a way of proving her allegiance. Hooty sadly slinks away while Lilith reattempts her heist but realises she truly needs help and calls out. Hooty quickly arrives and declares no witch to be an island before helping Lilith fend off the bees and obtain the honey as well as the other ingredients. Later on Lilith apologises for her abrasiveness to Hooty and admits she struggles at finding help for herself, to which he also apologises for being nosy.

Amity and Luz are nearly squashed by a piece of falling debris but King destroys it with his sonic yell. He and Eda try to console Hooty by telling him that he did help them but Hooty still bemoans he didn't help Luz. Fortunately, Eda encourages Luz to pick up the courage to ask Amity out and, dragging Hooty away, gives the two girls space and allows them to advance their relationship. With Hooty sated and his friends helped, Hooty returns to his role as the Owl House's guardian, though he has to promise that he'll never "help" anyone again.

In a previous letter he wrote, he mentioned that he feels unimportant while Luz, King and Eda are out on adventures. Lilith replies by saying that he is The Owl House itself and he takes care of everyone in it, which is a worthy purpose. Lilith's words inspire Hooty and he ends up trying to help King, Eda and Luz solve their problems. While Lilith was still the coven leader at the Emperor's Coven, she attempted to arrest Eda at her house.
First days with Luz
She tells herself to let Raine help her, but past Eda turns into the Owl Beast. Enraged, Eda attacks the Owl Beast, blaming it for ruining her entire life, but she finds herself in her Owl form in an unknown location. She tries to fly away, but her wings burn, and she falls into the sea, where she turns into the scroll Lilith used to curse her. In "Elsewhere and Elsewhen", Hooty hosts a party for Lilith to celebrate her getting a new job. When Eda's father Dell comes over to visit, he comments that he's a very nice man and asks Eda about his scars, causing her to feel even more guilty about attacking him as a teenager, though the two reconcile later. He also helps Luz hold together a badly made portal door in "Reaching Out" as she distracts herself from the anniversary of her father's death.
Preparing for the Day of Unity
Hooty is somewhat lacking in social awareness as well thanks to doing unnerving and annoying things to people such as spending hours talking to a fly or barfing up owl pellets, causing King to remark that Hooty seems desperate for attention. This remark does seem to be true to an extent as even when defending the Owl House, Hooty still displays a large amount of talkativeness as he holds a tea party with defeated Coven Scouts in "Agony of a Witch". Hooty also seems to be slightly sadistic, hooting with glee as he's commanded by King to stop the plush toy insurrection, mauling them to a point even King is horrified. When he also remarks that Luz running out for help in the boiling rain would be funny, King is also unamused and simply slams the door back.
Powers / Skills
Amity also mentions that house demons begin to exhibit Hooty's odd behaviour when they're a few thousand years old, which could mean that he is in fact that ancient. At some point, Eda met Hooty and settled in as his tenant near a tower that used to be owned by her father Dell, naming the residence the Owl House. She later brings home King as a pet 8 years prior to the series, though after realising his sentience becomes a surrogate mother and roommate to him. When Lilith begins living in the Owl House, Hooty makes it his goal to befriend her, despite previously beating her up in the pre-mentioned episode to defend Eda. It is possible that he displays sympathy, hence his desire to befriend her and make her feel like she is part of the family.
Friends / Allies
After overhearing Luz's desire to ask Amity out, Hooty devises a plan to motivate the human. He creates a cheesy tunnel of love and kidnaps Amity, leaving a note for Luz to head to the basement. Hooty then opens a trapdoor when the duo accidentally steps onto it, and the girls fall down a pit, landing in front of the tunnel of love. While Amity is impressed, Luz freaks out and destroys the decorations, not wanting Amity to believe that she is weird.
Sure enough, Gus soon regrets this as Hooty's irritating voice and meaningless rambling drive him away. During "Enchanting Grom Fright", Hooty invades Amity's personal space as he greets her, annoying her as she goes upstairs to help Luz train to fight Grom. Later on as Luz and Amity have a personal discussion Hooty barges in and pokes Amity's eye, enraging her so much as she viciously assaults him, forcing him to wear an eyepatch and multiple bandages for the rest of the episode. He tries to break away from the Owl House, believing everyone would be better off without him. Since he is part of the house, his desperation to break away from it puts the house in danger of collapsing. A falling stone nearly crushes Luz and Amity, but King saves them with his new ultrasonic scream powers.
Luz is shocked by this, but not as much as Hooty, who once again believes he has messed up. During the epilogue, it appears that Hooty has retired from guarding the Owl House after the Collector installed a new portal door, and instead acts as Lilith's constant companion. As the two work on a new museum wing of the Bonesborough library specialising in Titan research (of which Hooty will be curator), they are met with Hunter, Amity and Willow who reminds them of Luz's belated quinceńera. As such, Lilith uses her harpy form to pick up Raine, Alador and Darius before heading off to the party. At the party, Hooty helps out in emulating Luz's ethnic birthday traditions by hanging the Snaggleback off himself as a "pain-yata", and later bids the Collector (and the audience by extension) farewell in the series's last scene.
During the body swap, King (in Luz's body) prank calls Hooty and puts the phone in a megaphone, forcing the whole marketplace to hear his irritating voice. Later on after the trio come to understand each others' lives, Luz tries to suggest a team effort in cleaning Hooty which Eda and King quickly turn down, leaving Luz to do the job. In "Something Ventured, Someone Framed" Hooty greets Gus as he leaves the Owl House, scaring him. Later, as Eda discusses her fears for Luz joining Hexside, Hooty remarks that he turned out just fine after she taught him (which he obviously isn't), causing Eda to change her mind and enrol Luz in magic school.
Using the leftover Titan blood as fuel, King and Eda successfully rescue the duo, but Hunter is severely traumatised by what he saw in the emperor's mind and flees into the woods, fearing Belos's retribution. During "Echoes of the Past", Hooty accompanies Lilith as she studies glyphs and when King throws a stuffed toy at her for tripping over his "army", he takes the hit and dramatically plays dead in her arms. After hours of flight they arrive at the jungle island housing the castle which only King seems to know about. Hooty's background is extremely cryptic, with his only memories of his birth being that the sky was red and that there was a hunt. He has an unnamed mother who he's apparently very protective of and an evil twin called "Booty".
With this settled, the Collector restores most of the Boiling Isles' citizens to normal, and later on in the Owl House, reverts Hooty back to his normal form. Hooty and Lilith share a tearful (if awkward) embrace, and as Luz and her friends rest, Lilith introduces Hooty to Luz's mom Camila. During "Eda's Requiem", Luz reveals she's had to pause portal research after Hooty ate her echo mouse in an effort to protect her, traumatizing it and forcing it to recover for a few days. In the episode "Echoes of the Past", Hooty reveals he can disconnect with the house and ride in a cuckoo clock style backpack to travel to areas not on the Isle itself. Doing this however, he exposes his internal organs causing people to get sick at the sight of it. King's relationship with Hooty has been shown to be the most distant and cold of all his other interactions.
In "Knock, Knock, Knockin' on Hooty's Door", Hooty tries to help King figure out what kind of demon he is. Unfortunately, the result ends up inconclusive, so Hooty tells King that he and Tinella Nosa doesn't need to know that to be his friends. He becomes increasingly frustrated at his dad's absence, and shouts in anger, inadvertently unlocking his new voice powers. However, Hooty is too upset to notice that and pulls away in tears, not hearing King calling after him. At the end of the episode, a stranger asks Hooty to deliver a letter to King for him, but Hooty accidentally swallows the letter along with a bug he saw crawling on it.
In "Eclipse Lake", Hooty's relationship with Willow and Gus improves as they work together to take care of Luz when she gets sick with the Common Mold. Hooty explaining the history and physiology of demons to King in "Knock, Knock, Knockin' on Hooty's Door". Hooty standing up after Luz, Willow, and Gus accidentally animated the entire house. In "Watching and Dreaming", when Luz meets the Titan in the In Between Realm, something which resembles Hooty can be seen in his right eye. While it is not revealed whether that was Hooty or not, this at least implies that he used to be part of the Titan's eye.
