The second TODO should have 2 stars

,----
| * TODO Things I need to do
|  - [ ] get foo1, foo2, foo3.
| ** TODO foo2 is got by this way
|  - [ ] do thing 2
|  - [ ] ...
`----

I'm assuming your - [] are supposed to be checkboxes (they need a space
in there)

Headlines have leading stars.  Org-mode can hide leading stars but they
are still present physically in the file and are required for marking
headlines.
