Enter Bodo Baas, a juvenile insectoid Krevaaki with cephalaopidal tentacles, in a prison on Empress Teta.

The doors to the prison open, and the guards throw an older Krevaaki male into the prison: Bodo's father Vodo-Siosk Baas.

Bodo runs to his father.

Bodo. Father. What did they do to you? [to the guards] I'll kill you.

Enter Exar Kun.

Kun. There will be no killing today. You helped the Jedi kill my Gamorrean, Baas. You turned my own daughter against me.

Baas. You did that yourself, Your Majesty.

A guard kicks Baas in the shin.

Bodo. Stop.

Kun. You love your asteroid field so much, I have decided to let you stay here. This will be your workshop. Make me new wonders. Amuse me. Every graveyard needs a monster. You will be mine.

Baas. I don't fear you.

Kun. [smiles coldly] But a being cares about his son, eh? Displease me, Krevaaki, and the next time my guards inflict a punishment, it will be on him.

Exit Kun, with his guards.

Bodo. What shall we do? Father, they will kill you.

Baas. [smiles weakly] Take heart, my son. I . . . I will find a way.

The prison door slams shut.

Exit all.
