So tired of delays, the Imperial sent six people to raid the files in the Tofanta-based computer network. Oh, shit. Hack in the net. These kinds of operations, Eric, how involved do you think both Vader and Palpatine are? Not even on the radar, I would guess. I was just like, oh, can I get a report on the hammerhead situation? I don't think so. Yeah, they're just gathering intel and then eventually maybe they could use it for something. Yeah, like it's just underlings, just kind of like, hey, go out, fucks his uncle.

I think if they found a thing, like, a nice fucking, like, juicy info nug. Sure. Within the Hammerhead community, you'd be like, oh, this is something Lord Vader might be interested. Got it. But I think a lot of the time it's where we're like, don't bother me with this kind of Insolence. Well, because it is kind of like a mafia racket. It's like, this is your territory.

You take care of it. The regional governors will have control. Oh, yeah, dude. Love regional governors. Love them. The regional governors were the dudes that owned that Delhi that Tony Sopranos sat in front of all the time. No, no. But if you want, you know, in Star Wars Rebels, that cartoon,

the regional governor plays heavily. Forget what the planet was. Is it Pataki? There is a whole race that just survives off of Gabagool and Matt. Okay, now, when the spies were banished and the herd ships were closed to off-worlders,

the conquest captain... Shit, they closed the borders, dude? They did. Oh, shit. The conquest captain Elmilla became enraged. His men trained the destroyer's turbillazers on the sentient forests of Cathor Hills, killing thousands of Bafor trees.

Oh, dude, that's my whole stash. Oh, no. The grow- I'm out of a job. They're hammerheads, and some of them, I assume, are good people. But these barefoot trees, they're gangs. I was reading that short story, and, like, you need at least seven of these trees together in order for them to be sentient. Like, these are, like, sentient trees. It's sort of like...

Lord of the Rings. Yeah, but they're not as... Not one-to-one. They're not running around. stand in there, you know, there is some place. But we couldn't put him in the movie because of licensing agreements. Well, the technology wasn't there

at the time. I really wanted to make a sentient tree, but I just couldn't figure it out. Hey, Stan, give me a design on the sentient tree. Also, the genitalia? Let me see you. I kept fucking a tree to try to produce a human tree offspring that would be sentient,

and it just, the acorn wouldn't fall. Some guy came up behind me and yelled, hey, dendrophiliac, and hit me in the head with a brick. When I came to, I came up with the idea for American graffiti. You know what? This is dendrophiliac pride, okay? You're not going to shut me up. I love fucking trees.

That's why I love redwoods in Northern California. Oh, my God, a giant tree. It's fucking red. it could fall on me at any second I can walk through it because they carved a hole to pave a road

I could be crushed Okay so Captain O'Mia Then Thank you.
