Episode I: The Phantom Meany
Plot Synopsis
It is discovered that Marty went to jedi school and his aide is requested by an old school friend. Marty is then forced to face off against Darth Angrius on the planet Alderin.
Plot Summary
After shore leave on Nudebeach Marty returns to the ship with a lightsaber which he proceeds to show off with. Shortly thereafter the droid R2D2 arrives with a message from an old friend of Marty's, Princess Leia. Leia calls Marty back to Alderin as she is having trouble with an old schoolmate of Marty's, Darth Angrius. At Marty's request the Captain takes the ship to the planet where Marty can fight Darth Angrius. Before beaming down Marty gives Bob a lightsaber of a slightly different design and the two of them along with R2D2 beam down and confront Angrius. After much postureing Angrius fights Marty and in the process loses a hand. At this he runs away to return at some unspecified point in the future.
In addition this episode featured a commerical for the jedi school from Master Yoda, an aside with 46 and R2D2 sharing droid humor, Marty sharing a joke with Chewbacca and Leia's whiny brother, Luke, showing up to whine.
At the end of this episode there was also a short segment to introduce Late Night with Boba Fett, a talk show format which would show up again in the series run. In this episode the sole purpose of the production was the death of Jar Jar Binks.
