- "You there, get me the tuning stylus."
"Yes, sir."
"No, no, no. I said the tuning stylus, you idiot!" - ―8t88 asks Rol for a tuning stylus, but gets a testing probe instead
A tuning stylus was a device used by roboticists for adjusting droid machinery.
After the droid informant 8t88 lost an arm on the moon Nar Shaddaa[2] during the year 5 ABY,[3] he retreated to the Government House on the moon Sulon for business related to the Imperial Remnant. An arm was transported to him from a fellow Model 88-series administration droid, but lacking a qualified roboticist, he had to attach it to his own body. 8t88 asked his bodyguard Rol to hand him a tuning stylus from an array of tools laid before him, but Rol instead picked a testing probe, as he could not tell the difference between the two tools. 8t88 angrily discarded the testing probe and used the tuning stylus to finish his job with.[2][1]
