After being jettisoned over the deserts of Ingo by an unscrupulous former master, C-3PO and R2-D2 are taken in by speeder bike racers Jord Dusat and Thall Joben. Kea Moll sees them accidentally cross a restricted zone, and helps protect them from several deadly droids. One of gangster Tig Fromm’s droids kidnaps Jord, and the droids assist Thall and Kea in rescuing Jord from Fromm’s secret base, destroying much of his droid army in the process.
