This is bad. Padmé's plan is to have Jar-Jar set up a meeting for us with the Gungans and then have me, as Queen, convince Boss Nass that we should call a truce and make an alliance against the Federation. Talk about flutterflies in your stomach. Of course, she and Eirtaé have been coaching me on what to say and how to say it. And Padmé assured me that she'll see to it things work out and I shouldn't worry and just do my best.

Calm down, Sabé. You can do this. You can, you can, you can. It will be okay, it will be fine, it will be wonderful. I think I'm going to die. Or faint. Or throw up. This is worse than meeting the Chancellor. All I had to do then was look pretty and regal. Now I actually have to convince someone to do something, and it's something important–something that will save lives. Something that may be the only hope for our planet.

I'm going to die.
