- "Hey, who did that? Hey, who did that?"
- ―A pilot droid, with gum stuck to his head
Gum[2] was a consumable from the planet At Attin,[1] an isolated Jewel of the Old Republic.[3]
Gum came in various colors, including red, yellow, green, and blue. Rather than being swallowed, it was spat out after chewing, forming a pliable substance. In the New Republic Era, unruly younglings from At Attin Middle School Gamma were notorious for sticking chewed gum to the head of an RX-series pilot droid who piloted the tram that delivered the students to school, ignoring the droid's appeals to stop bullying[1] him.[2]
Behind the scenes
Gum first appeared as "bubblegum" in the non-canon LEGO short film "Hoth Flavored Bubblegum". It was introduced into the Star Wars canon through "This Could Be a Real Adventure," the first episode of the Disney+ live-action series Star Wars: Skeleton Crew,[1] which premiered on December 2, 2024.[4] The identification of the sticky consumable was provided by the episode's audio description from Disney+.[2]
