    • The Trade Federation boldly blockades Naboo with a ring of battleships. In response, the Republic sends Jedi ambassadors to negotiate a peaceful settlement.
    • The Trade Federation has no interest in negotiation. They instead attack Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his Padawan Obi-Wan Kenobi with battle droids.
    • Escaping to Naboo's surface, Qui-Gon Jinn saves Gungan outcast Jar Jar Binks from being trampled by the invading Trade Federation army.
    • Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon and Jar Jar warn the ruler of Otoh Gunga, Boss Nass, that the droid army will attack the Naboo surface-dwellers, and that the Gungans are not safe in their underwater city. Nass, however, wants nothing to do with the Naboo.
    • Traveling underwater in a Gungan bongo submarine, Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon and Jar Jar narrowly escape being eaten by huge creatures like the opee sea killer.
    • In the Naboo capital of Theed, Queen Amidala refuses to sign an unfair treaty with the Trade Federation, and with the help of Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon, she escapes her battle droid captors and flees the planet.
    • Queen Amidala's Royal Starship is damaged during the escape and must land on the desert planet of Tatooine for repairs. Qui-Gon, Jar Jar, R2-D2 and the Queen's handmaiden, Padmé, venture to the port town of Mos Espa in search of help.
    • Qui-Gon finds the parts he needs to repair the ship in Watto's junk shop, but the shifty Toydarian dealer resists being mind-tricked into accepting Republic credits.
    • Slave boy Anakin Skywalker, who works at Watto's junk shop, invites Qui-Gon, R2-D2 and Jar Jar back to his home where they meet his mother, Shmi Skywalker.
    • Anakin shows Padmé his latest project -- a protocol droid named C-3PO that he's building to help his mother around the house.
    • To get their badly needed starship parts, Qui-Gon bets with Watto over a Podrace to cover repair costs of the Royal Starship. Anakin Skywalker will compete in the race, eager to help his new offworld friends.
    • Podracer pilots from across the galaxy line up at the Boonta Eve Classic race, including a devious Dug named Sebulba who will do anything to win.
