- "But we want excitement!"
"Ah, but you will have excitement! The thrill of watching as a gas mine treaty is negotiated." - ―Jempa and C-3PO
A gas mine treaty was watched by multiple younglings at the Senate Building,[2] prior to 21 BBY.[1] The younglings had just returned from a field trip to the Outer Rim Territories, led by Jedi Grand Master Yoda. After landing at the Senate Building, the youngling Jempa complained that the group wanted excitement. C-3PO, who was acting as the younglings' tour guide, stated that there would be excitement, as the younglings would be watching a "thrilling" negotiation of a gas mine treaty.[2]
During the treaty, Supreme Chancellor Sheev Palpatine pulled the hood of his cloak up and down repeatedly, scaring the senators present in the Grand Convocation Chamber as a joke. Later, Han Solo, under the guise of "Ian," interrupted the treaty, causing several repulsorpods to begin colliding with one another.[2]
Behind the scenes
The gas mine treaty first appeared in LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace,[2] which first aired on Cartoon Network on July 22, 2011.[3]

Notes and references
- ↑ 1.0 1.1 The Official Star Wars Fact File Part 48 20 BBY 9-12: Ventress and the Nightsisters dates the events of "Nightsisters" to 20 BBY. Asajj Ventress was betrayed by and left the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the events of "Nightsisters". As she is still serving the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the events of LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace, the events of the TV special, including the gas mine treaty, must have occurred prior to 21 BBY.
