Darth Vader: Uh.... Carnival? Emperor: I like Cantaloupes! Imperial Commando: Yeah, it's a fund raiser... Darth Vader: A fund raiser?!? We've got too much money as it is! Imperial Commando: We're testing a new kind of TIE... given how good our pilots are, we're gonna need enough money to make a couple thousand, and to build more storage areas in case one suicidal, disgruntled pilot decides to blow himself up by crashing into the bay where all of the new TIES are being stored. Darth Vader: What's the new TIE look like? Imperial Commando: It's got some polka dots... Darth Vader: Anything else? Imperial Commando: It's not a clip-on... Darth Vader: I swear talking to you is like talking to a very argumentative brick wall... Imperial Commando: I working on my Emperor impression, pretty good, eh? Emperor: Did I tell you about the time I laughed while eating a cantaloupe? It went out my nose! Darth Vader: (looking at the Emperor for a few seconds) You've got a LONG way to go. Imperial Commando: It's a tough job, but I'm willing to take it on! Darth Vader: About the TIE though... Imperial Commando: Oh, you noticed... It's new, I just got it yesterday... Darth Vader: I meant the new TIEs that we're testing... Imperial Commando: What about 'em? Darth Vader: What do they look like? Imperial Commando: That's classified... Darth Vader: Come on! I have level 5 clearance! Imperial Commando: Yeah well... it's level 6... Darth Vader: And how long has THAT existed? Imperial Commando: About 20 seconds now.... Darth Vader: A diabolical brick wall.... Imperial Commando: Anyway... Enjoy the carnival... Darth Vader: What's there to do here? Imperial Commando: You can ride rides, play some games... look at the freak show... Darth Vader: What KIND of games? Imperial Commando: Pin the tail on the Rebel...darts... extra points for hitting the Rebels in the heart... knock down the Rebel... ring the rebel... throw horseshoes on the Rebel's head... Darth Vader: I get the point... what's the freak show? Imperial Commando: We captured some Gungans, and dressed them up... Darth Vader: Ooooh! Where's that? Imperial Commando: In the big red tent to your right... Darth Vader: All right... see you later! Imperial Commando: Hehe... You sure will... HELLO, I'M THE NARRATOR... WE'RE GOING TO FOLLOW DARTH VADER FOR THE NEXT FEW MINUTES, SINCE IMPERIAL COMMANDO INFORMS ME THAT IT'LL BE PRETTY FUNNY... Darth Vader:(walks into the red tent) I'm here for the freak show... Imperial Worker #1: Ah, we've been expecting you... See Sherry over there, she'll get you fixed up for the show... Darth Vader: What? Imperial Worker #1: Come on, hurry up, we don't have all day(pushes Darth away) Sherry: Come on, we've got 5 minutes until we have to all be ready...(puts some make-up on Darth's helmet, and puts a costume on him) Now move along, with the rest of the Gungans...

BANG!!! CLICK!!!) (Gungan #2 dies) Admiral Bob IV: Nice shot, Darth Vader, I guess... But where are his vital organs... Darth Vader: In his arse.* Admiral Bob IV: Why is THAT not surprising... Imperial Worker #1: AAAHH!!!!! What have you done to my Gungans!!! My beautiful, beautiful gungans! Darth Vader: Geez, I didn't know you felt so strongly for single-celled organisms... Admiral Bob IV: That's only their brains Darth... Darth Vader: Oopsie... Imperial Worker #1: Now we'll have to find two more gungans! Where are we going to find two more Gungans?

Emperor: Have you seen my new friend, Mr. Stump? He would be a Gungan, but some maniac shot a bunch of them... Stan: Uh... Imperial Commando: Just ignore him... After a while he starts to just blend in with the background noise... Stan's Wife: So do you? Imperial Commando: Yeah... Go left from here, keep going for about a mile, then turn right. Get out of the car and ask the people in the gas station how to get there. Stan's Wife: Err... ok, thanks... Stan: WE ARE NOT LOST!!!!
