It's name the system, with your evil host, Governor Tarkin.
Governor Tarkin got his Law degree at NYU and began his political career. Before perishing in the first Death Star, he gleefully agreed to host our humble show...
NAME...THE...SYSTEM!!!
Where our contestants name the system, or have their home planet destroyed!!!
(The Empire thought this would be a relatively inexpensive game show--because NO PRIZE MONEY is awarded!)
Let's meet our contestants...
Wicket W. Warwick hails from the moon of Endor. He's 11-years-old, an Ewok scout, and currently shedding!!
Up next, Mon Mothma. She's a rebel leader who left her husband 'cuz he was a cheater. Mon Monthma enjoys needlepoint, books on construction work, and putting Bothan spies in jepoardy!
Our final contestant is Jan Tosh! Unless you've watched the "Droids" cartoon series, you don't know who Jan Tosh is...
Now let's play...NAME...THE...SYSTEM!!!
Gov. Tarkin: Our first question goes to the fuzzball...
Wicket: Goomba?
Gov. Tarkin: Icy world with wampa creatures...
Wicket: Yubyub!
Gov. Tarkin: Oh, sorry, all answers MUST be in Basic! Fire when ready
commander!
Gunner points laser to Endor--the planet, not the moon, moons don't make an effective demonstration--and blows it up
Wicket: Kavaric!
Gov. Tarkin: Better luck next time, stupid.
The Governor turns his attention to the next player
Gov. Tarkin: Moth Marshmellow.
Mon Mothma: That's MON MOTHMA!
Gov. Tarkin: Sorry. You're parents must have hated you.
Mon Mothma: It means 'beautiful jewel'
Gov. Tarkin: So does 'Hutt'. Anyway...here's your question...name the system:
Planet with a cloud city hovering above it.
Mon Mothma: Oh...I know this one...Lando System!
Gov. Tarkin: Lando System? Lando's not a system, he's a man--a
gambler, card player, scoundrel--would you like his number?
Mon Mothma: Oh, just blow up my planet and get on with it!
Gov. Tarkin: Charming to the last...you heard her, Bert!
Gunner aims at Mon Mothma's planet and blows it up
Gov. Tarkin: Jan Tosh, you owned a pair of goofy droids once.
Jan: Yeah, and I saved a prince and made my Uncle Gundar proud!
Gov. Tarkin: But I hear you're pretty bad at galactic geography...
Jan: I'm afraid I got the good looks, Uncle Gundar got the brains.
Gov. Tarkin: I guess we can't all be ME. OK, NAME...THE...SYSTEM...
Water world inhabited by cloners...
Jan: Are the cloners d--n good ones?
Gov. Tarkin: Yes!
Jan: Oh, I know this, water world, right?
Gov. Tarkin: Correct, no stalling, please!
Jan: OK, water world, it's gotta be Tatooine!
Gov. Tarkin: Too bad Uncle Gundar isn't here--you're WRONG!! Tatooine
is a desert world, and that answer was so horrible we're going
to blow up your home planet AND the home planet of your
nearest living relative!!
