Synopsis:
His dreams of becoming a Senator thwarted by the Emperor, Bothan
ambassadorial aide Tereb Ab'Lon had decided to join the Rebel
Alliance. He quietly drops Imperial Navy operation plans into his
astromech droid R2-Z1 (aka "Fweep")'s memory banks. Two
years later, he is in a shuttle on the run from the Empire. He heads
for a Rebel cell in the Tao-Grant system, nursing his crippled
shuttle there as best he can. It proves hopeless - his sublight
drive was totally destroyed. The shuttle suddenly lurches out of
hyperspace too early, badly injuring Ab'Lon, and crashes into
Tatooine.
Detective for hire Nim Bola has just taken out two bounty hunters
who were after an Ithorian hanging around Chalmun's Cantina. He
tosses the bodies down the Sarlacc's throat. He spots the shuttle
crash and comes to help. He pulls Ab'Lon and Fweep out of the
wreckage. He begs Bola to take Fweep to the Alliance. Bola responds
by throwing Ab'Lon into the Sarlacc and taking the droid to find out
how much the Empire wants for it…
