"A mission? That sounds important. We'd better get you to the ship. It's picking us up at the Ruins."
―F3-ZK to BB-8[1]

This droid scout ship was used to scout the planet Jakku, and was scheduled to leave on the afternoon following the attack on Tuanul. The loading droid F3-ZK was scheduled to be picked up at the Starship Graveyard by the droid ship, but fell into a trap set by Teedo. Fez was saved by BB-8, and after a series of misadventures reached his ship. BB-8 distracted Teedo while Fez boarded, and the vessel departed Jakku safely.[1]
