[There is an orange-skinned girl on the feed with white facial tattoos. Please do not adjust your communication devices, she is actually orange. Since her arrival she's shed her many layers of clothes and right now she appears to be in the lift.]

I'm Padawan Ahsoka Tano. For those of you who are wondering, I am an alien. A species called a Togruta. I'm also a Jedi apprentice and helping out in the shuttlebay.

[She hasn't been sleeping well for the last six days but that shouldn't give her hallucinations already. Which means what she saw was real. Plus hallucinations don't try to lock her in her room.]

Master Kenobi, Skyguy. We've got a bit of a problem. There's this droid, an R3 unit that's sort of out to get us on board the ship. He's a Sep spy and a stubby, little back-stabber. I can catch him but I don't have the skills to reprogram him.

Everyone else should be on the lookout for a gold and black droid - he looks exactly like Artooie except for the color. Don't let him near anything he can sabotage. If you see him electric shocks work best to put him out of commission. Try not to shoot him or slice him in half. Stubby can be a big help once he's not working against us.

[This is not going to be one of those good conversations.]

He's already been reprogrammed. I intend to restore his original programming. The one that makes it so that he isn't out to kill me or anyone else on the ship.

Well, then maybe if you'd asked permission when you reprogammed him in the first place, he wouldn't be trying to kill you now, did you think about that?

[padawansnips]

I didn't reprogram him. Some evil tinnie did.

[testgasm]

Yeah, I'm--I'm sure that's exactly what happened. Like I said, we don't do that sort of thing here, not without explicit permission. You reprogram one, suddenly everyone thinks they can just have a field day with all the AI on board. How would you like someone poking around in your brain, huh?

[padawansnips]

I'm not a liar. [Huff.] If I don't reprogram him then I'll have to cut him down, and I'd rather not have to do that. Stubby is dangerous, he could and would destroy the ship if he gets the chance.

[testgasm]

Maybe he just feels threatened, what with all the people taking about hunting him down and reprogramming him.

[padawansnips]

He started it! I didn't even know he was here until he locked me in my room.

[testgasm]

A likely story. Sure he wasn't just preemptively defending himself because he knew you'd be coming after him?

[padawansnips]

Why would I lie about that to a complete stranger?

[testgasm]

Uh, because you don't--you don't want anyone to know about your plot to kill a robot who just wants to be left alone, obviously.

[padawansnips]

If I didn't want anyone to know I wouldn't have said anything about it in the first place. I would have just gone to find him by myself.

[testgasm]

Yeah, I'm sure you would have. But we're--we're onto you, now, so don't even think about trying anything funny.

[padawansnips]

I'm not going to hurt him unless I have to.

[testgasm]

No, just reprogram him, yeah, I've got it.
