Unit Commander P-59, and its underling, P-60, were the two droidekas summoned by Trade Federation Viceroy Nute Gunray to keep Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi from entering the bridge of the Saak'ak. Their combined firepower forced the two Jedi Knights to escape into a vent.
Behind the scenes
Star Wars Episode I: I Am a Droid indicates that P-59 is a type of destroyer droid, rather than the name of a specific unit.
