*Twirling as if an eloquent ballet, the speed of the malfunctioning Sub causes a whirlpool to form, sucking in water that frightens inhabitants above, including the disruption of a picnic between Nabooian and Gungan delegates on a floating barge. The underwater tornado finally hurls the Sub upward, allowing it to imagine itself as a flying machine before skewing its landing into a traveling freighter. The owner, a furious Anomid, drops his chalice of blue milk and climbs onto the Sub, smashing the glass with his fists in order to meet the perpetrators of this destruction.
*The light of the sun illuminates the sub. "Oh wowsa! Meesa can read papers now!" Bar Bar exclaims as he begins picking up the papers. The Anomid sees Bar Bar Bar and throws a right hook at him, but at that moment, Bar Bar ducks down to pick up a paper and the punch misses. The Anomid strikes with a left uppercut, but again the attack misses as Bar Bar picks up another piece of paper. This cycle goes on for some time until Bar Bar has collected every piece of paperwork "Hooray! Meesa did it!" he exclaims while throwing his hands up in celebration. Right at that moment the Anomid attempts to sneak up behind Bar Bar, but the dumbell attatched to Bar Bar's left wrist smacks the Anomid, shattering his mask and sending him tumbling out the sub, and landing into the water. "You'll pay for this!" The Anomid shouts as he swims to shore. "Now, letsa see here," Bar Bar begins as he reads the papers, "Yousa are to be going to the Naboo Palace and join the Queen and Captain Pan- erm, how does yousa say this word? Pankakaka? Pakana? Ah, Captain Pancake! We are to join the Queen and Captain Pancake on a diplomatic mission to Dantooine and make sure the ship is in tip top condition before, during, and after the voyage. The ship departs at 12:00 PM, so don't be late. Hmm, don't be late issa very simple, that means we have about..." *He looks at the clock. It reads 11:42 AM* "5 hours before we need to be there. All right, letsa get going!"
Gummy winces as he pulls out a minuscule piece of the Anomid's mask out of his cheek before pulling a piece off the wrecked sub and smacking it on the sub's console before it bends to a angle satisfactory. Inhaling a large breath of air, Gummy bellows into the makeshift megaphone, alerting nearby wildlife that catch both him and Bar Bar in the air. Gummy raises the pitch of his bellows, pointing a direction before quickly stopping to ask. "Er, where is the palace anyways?"
Unfortunately, due to him interrupting his wildlife call, the confused creatures suddenly dispersed, leaving the two Gungans floating in mid-air before falling downward.

Unfortunately, due to him interrupting his wildlife call, the confused creatures suddenly dispersed, leaving the two Gungans floating in mid-air before falling downward.
The sub falls onto the slope of a tall mountain, and begins sliding at incredible speeds. Due to there being no windshield, the gungans' gums, eyelids, and ears, flap in the wind, as sticks and leaves pelt them mercilessly. At the bottom of the mountain, there is a small hill, and due to the momentum, the sub goes up the hill and flies in the air once more. The world goes in slow motion as the sub moves in front of the sun, and resumes speed as they fly by, screaming all the while. Soon, the sub starts to descend, and they find that they are headed... right for the Naboo Royal Palace! They crash right into the (luckily vacant) throne room and the room collapses around them. Luckily, the windshield is facing up, so the two janitors easily climb out... covered in leaves and branches and entirely unpresentable. The time is 11:54. "See, issa not so hard. Weesa bein' right on time! Now, which way to the ambassador ship..."

Gummy holds his mouth closed as his complexion turns green. Teetering around, he weakly crawls out of the sub's remains, clinging onto it's steering joystick in a death grip. Shaking it off, he suddenly perks up, inhaling one great breath. With his feet gently lifting off the ground, Gummy carelessly floats across, serendipitous.
"Meesa smells the sweet scent of Nabooian food! Good Nabooian food."
Following its trail, he extends both of his arms wide in a front stroke, swimming to the scent of his dreams.

"Where are yousa going? Weesa have job to do! Wait, muy muy! Meesa smelling something good!" Bar Bar begins following Gummy and as they swim through the hallways of the palace, servants and retainers gaze in awe. "Wh-who are you!? You're not supposed to be here!" The head chef yells as they enter the kitchen. Deaf to his words, Bar Bar begins chowing down on the wonderful cusine that was supposed to be the princess' lunch.

Twirling in the air, Gummy gently scoops up handfuls of blue puff cubes. (marshmallows in SW.)
Happy, with out a care, he feels as if the day is finally going right.
CRASH!
Gummy falters, knocking his knees together, his eyes swirling in their sockets.
BOOF.
Crumbling to the floor, mushy goop dripping off his face. A drop of it falls on his tongue, causing him to lurch forward, spitting out and wiping his mouth desperately with a fallen blue puff cube.
"Oi! Meatlump, gross!"
A shadow envelops him. Wincing, he looks upward. And into the gruff face of a Royal Naboo Security Officer.
Leaning to the side, Gummy places his hand over his mouth as he sees three more Officers encircle Bar Bar. He gulps weakly, spitting out the blue puff cube and setting it back in its plate.

Bar Bar continues chowing down on the feast, unaware of the situation he's in. The guards grab both Bar Bar and Gummy and drag them away. "But meesa just getting started!" Bar Bar complains. Once brought before the Princess, who is now in charge seeing as how the Queen and Captain Panaka have already departed on their mission, members of the royalty begin discussing what should be done with the intruders. Bar Bar tunes it out and falls asleep. He awakens at the end of the debate. "After checking the records of these gungans, we have proven that they are exiles from their city. Therefore they are criminals! As punishment for their crimes, they will be sent to the spice mines on Kessel and do involuntary labor for the next 10 years. Take them away!" The Princess commands. Bar Bar and Gummy are restrained and sent to the prison ship and locked in a cell. There is only one other prisoner on board the ship, and the two gungans share the cell with him. "Well, well, well. What have we here? I knew I'd find you somehow." The Anomid says after emerging from the shadows of the corner of the cell. Bar Bar tilts his head in confusion, not recognizing the strange creature. The ship departs and the intercom sounds. "We have just made the jump into hyperspace. Please sit tight and try not to get into much trouble. It's gonna be a long ride."

Holding back the effects of motion sickness, Gummy attempts to stand perfectly still. Peering to the corner of his foot, he notices miniscule insect like creatures crawling over his toes. Slowly shifting his eyes upward, Gummy lets out a high-pitched squeal, followed by a series of croaks. His whole being vibrates as he continues the din.
The insect like creatures extend their wings, buzzing along with Gummy.
Gummy then shimmies, leaning side to side in motion with the insects who circle around him and repeat the motion.
With his eyes rolling back, Gummy increases his buzzing.

The Anomid freezes, but still attempts to maintain his confidence, nudging Bar Bar in a mocking tone. "Eh...eh, what's wrong with your friend here? Quaking in his skin like a baby loth-cat?"
Limp in form, Gummy lies still on the floor, still rattling...teeth chattering. The insects surrounding Gummy turn their attention to the Anomid, their buzzing growing louder as they charge forward, dancing around his feet in circles on their hind legs.
The Anomid raises his arms in shock, shrieking as he cringes in a corner.
Coughing, Gummy's eyes flicker open. Shaking his head in a rubbery motion, Gummy looks around and spots Bar Bar. Nursing his forehead, he inquires as to the situation. "Oh mooie mooie, mesa head groans." He pauses, putting up a listening ear, and turns around to find the Anomid rocking back and forth with his knees pulled towards his chest.
Confused, Gummy reaches his hand outward in an attempt to comfort him, but the Anomid squirms, backing away in fear. Quickly looking at Bar Bar, Gummy glances again at the Anomid, shifting eyes in shock before plopping back down on the floor with a sigh.
One remaining insect lagging behind the others passes by Gummy's head, wrinkling their antennas at him. Gummy pulls back in fright.
"Ugh, how wesa to help the Princess now? All mesa wanted to do was study the birds."

Suddenly, a loose Rancor barrel rolls onto the scene, squashing Gummy and Bar Bar into its squishy skin and taking the two unfortunate acquaintances to lands unknown...
