This Time It's Mother of Ultra (その時ウルトラの母は Sonotoki urutoranohaha wa) is the second episode of Ultraman Taro.

Plot

The monster, Cosmo Liquid, attacks a construction site by a river in the outskirts of Tokyo. Investigating the case, Kotaro finds the monster and shoots it, but it mysteriously disappears. The monster has transformed itself into liquid and moved to central Tokyo along the flowing river. Kotaro transforms into Ultraman Taro and defeats Cosmo Liquid, which is swallowed into a mysterious pit that is rumored to devour anything. The next day, Kotaro himself accidentally gets swallowed by the pit. Hope is not lost, however, as Mother of Ultra is heading to Earth...
