Complete with sound effects, Threepio’s harrowing tale of Darth Vader, spaceships, AT-AT’s, and a city in the clouds turned the tribe’s sympathies toward the Rebellion. It took C-3PO’s shiny golden appearance and a little bit of help from Luke Skywalker to capture the Ewok’s attention, but it was Threepio’s recounting of the Galactic Civil War that finally gained the tribe’s loyalty.ĭon’t believe the fussy protocol droid when he insists that he isn’t good at telling stories. He convinced some very unlikely allies to join the Rebellion. “Curse my metal body! I wasn’t fast enough,” he wailed.ģ. If C-3PO hadn’t turned on the comlink at the last possible moment, what fate might have been in store for Chewbacca, Princess Leia, Han Solo, and Luke Skywalker? Luke probably never heard a sweeter sound than Threepio’s harried voice on the other end of the comlink.Ĭ-3PO’s reaction to their plight also revealed the connection he already felt to his new friends. The Death Star’s trash compactor was almost the abrupt end of the rebellion. Threepio and R2-D2 rescued the future heroes of the rebellion from the garbage masher just in the nick of time. Republic warships packed with troopers soon arrived on the planet, and they saluted an incredulous Threepio as they landed.Ģ.
Then he contacted the clone troopers on a restricted frequency. Threepio distracted the battle droids (“I think that was rather clever,” he told himself proudly) and walked into the communications room without a single blaster bolt sizzling through the air. Then she sent the wary protocol droid on his own mission to send a distress signal to the Republic. But Padmé easily escaped from her cell and rescued Threepio from the battle droids. She fell into a trap by the Separatists and was held captive by her desperate friend in exchange for food for his people. With Jar Jar Binks and C-3PO at her side, Senator Amidala answered a plea for aid from an old family friend on Rodia. Threepio called in reinforcements to save Senator Padmé Amidala from the clutches of the Separatists.
Here are six times that the gabby goldenrod fought through his fear to be an invaluable team player.ġ. Threepio might just be the bravest of all the galaxy’s heroes. That’s right, we’re talking about the indispensable C-3PO.Ĭ-3PO may not be a smooth-talking smuggler with a blaster at his hip or a lightsaber-wielding Jedi, but he can still save the day.
But just because you’re not built for adventure, that doesn’t mean you can’t be a hero, as evidenced by everyone’s favorite protocol droid.
Some beings, in fact, can only be described instead as a worrier.
