"Lethal Trackdown" is the twenty-second and final episode of Season Two of the animated television series Star Wars: The Clone Wars. It aired on April 30, 2010.
Use of Aurebesh
Salvage ship
When Ahsoka Tano and Plo Koon venture into the Coruscant Underworld, a GS-100 salvage ship can be seen, emblazoned with the letters "VC", "FH" and "STIM".
Underworld customs
The customs droid at the entry turnstile on Coruscant's lower levels has a readout screen that displays the text "GALACTIC REPUBLIC CUSTOMS OF CORUSCANT"[1] : "ALL PERSONS ENTERING THE LOWER LEVELS OF CORUSCANT MUST HAVE [the rest is unreadable]".
The building where the customs droid is working is "TERMINAL 24", which can be seen after Ahsoka and Koon exit.
Coruscant Underworld posters
An advertisement of a kneeling, orange figure can be glimpsed at the customs office, outside the entry turnstile. In addition, when the Jedi leave the cantina, a "Sulcasky!" poster appears by the entrance and can also be glimpsed inside the cantina. It reads "SULCASKY! AN EXHIBITION".
Posters for various musicians can be seen in the Coruscant underlevels:
- There is one for "DASHA SIGWEED" (seen in the terminal and the Moshi Bar).
- Another shows a Bith musician with the caption "CONCERT SOLO" and is seen in the terminal, and both inside and outside the tavern. A large version of the poster can be seen in the Concept Art Gallery for the episode on StarWars.com.[2] An advertisement for the same musician can also be seen from far away on a hover taxi.
- A third one shows a human singer and reads "CONCERT EVERY NIGHT". It is seen in the terminal and in the tavern, and from far away as an advertisement on the hover taxi. In the shot where a Quarren points at the Twi'lek dancer and says, "I'm gonna ask her out", the poster can be seen from a distance, with the words "CALL 050506" seen underneath the main caption (note that the first two characters have been ripped off). The caption is seen in its entirety in the Concept Art Gallery on StarWars.com.[2]
Posters near the hover taxi station show advertisements for "PHATTRO", "KASHYK" [sic] (actually part of "Kashyk [sic] Welcomes You", but the last two words are unreadable) and "RYLOTH", in mirror-inverted letters. The Ryloth poster also appears in the cantina (not mirror-inverted).
The bottom of a poster seen over the entrance to the Moshi Bar, reads "CORUSCANT BALLROOM". This can be seen as Koon says, "You may be surprised what people reveal when they have been drinking." The full poster, showing the silhouette of two people against a blue background, is seen inside the cantina and reads "CORUSCANT NIGHTS" at the top (the bottom of the poster cannot be deciphered on the posters inside the bar; however, if you compare the design at bottom of the poster outside the cantina, to the full poster seen inside the bar, you can see that it is the same poster, meaning that it reads "Coruscant Nights" at the top and "Coruscant Ballroom" at the bottom). The full version of the poster over the cantina entrance can also be seen in the wide shot of the Jedi leaving the bar, but only from a distance.
Posters inside the tavern include:
- An advertisement for "MAX REEBO" [sic] – "CORUSCANT NIGHTS".
- A Hutt pin-up poster which shows a voluptuous Hutt and the text "TO GARY" – "XOXO" (this can also seen outside the tavern).
- A Rodian pin-up, which reads "TO JASON" – "XOXO" (also seen outside the tavern; the poster is seen from far away and barely readable in this episode; it is shown in close-up in another cantina in "Pursuit of Peace").
- An advertisement for "SODA".
- A red poster of a Twi'lek which reads "SHOW GIRLS" (also seen on a screen on the hover taxi that Plo Koon and Ahsoka Tano use). A large version of the poster can be seen in the Concept Art Gallery for the episode on StarWars.com.[2]
- A pin-up poster shows a landscape similar to the Gungan Sacred Place from Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace, and a young human wearing an outfit similar to the battle attires worn by Padmé Amidala and her handmaidens in the same movie. The caption appears to read "ATN" on one side of the person's head, and "ABOO" on the other side, seemingly "AT NABOO" (note that except from the A and the B, the characters are partially faded, so this is not 100% certain).
- "SPACEWORLD" (also seen from a distance at and outside the customs office).
- "STARGAZER" (also seen outside the customs office, but illegible).
- "CORUSCANT NIGHTS" (alternative design).
- Other posters, too far away to read, can also be glimpsed.
Hover taxi ad
In addition to the ads already listed (which also appear as posters in the Coruscant underworld), the hover taxi that Ahsoka and Koon take display an advertisement showing a human dressed in white while standing in front of the city of Aldera, accompanied by the caption "DESTINATION ALDERAAN".
Florrum container
After Aurra Sing lands on Florrum, a container says "CARGO".
Castas' holoprojector
The buttons on the holoprojector that Castas uses are marked "OFF", "ON", "DISTANCE", "CALL", "PLANET" and "RANGE".
Cantina graffitti
Graffiti outside of Moshi Bar says "ROGER ROGER"; the typical response of a B1 battle droid. When the Jedi leave the cantina, graffiti over the entrance says "CUTE HONEY". Additional graffiti only produces gibberish.
Cantina bottles
Many of the bottles behind the bar are labeled "SODA". Although it is hard to read, some of the other bottles, the ones with the yellow label, carry the name "Kashyk" (the last four letters can be seen in a few shots of the bartender, Tiggs Leo, behind the bar, while the first two letters can be seen on a bottle behind another bottle behind the bartender's head, after Koon says, "We are never too busy for the citizens of the Republic".).
A bottle of "PHATTRO" is sitting on the bar counter in the cantina after the Jedi ignite their lightsabers (a Bith can also be seen being poured a glass from a Phattro bottle at the beginning of the scene).
When Ahsoka is listening in on the customers' conversations, a bottle sitting on a table shared by a Patrolian and an Ithorian is labeled "RYLO[obscured]". In the wide shot where Koon orders the thugs to stand down, an identical bottle is sitting on the counter, reading "RYLOTH".
Florrum containers
Containers on Florrum are labeled "CARGO".
Hondo's computer
When the Jedi are approaching the planet, Hondo Ohnaka's computer says (note that most of the text is hard to read unless you have a good television):
