Plot summary
Lando and the rebels aboard Home One were
awakened when the ship's defenses were activated, as if gearing up for battle.
Lando soon learned the culprit was an unwell Lobot, whose neural implants are failing, causing interference with the Rebel ship and potentially lethal damage to Lobot.
In an effort to save his friend, Lando dragged Lobot to Jabba the Hutt's palace to seek the aid of the talky droid that helped him once before. However, the scourge that's affecting droids has made its way to the Tatooine crime den and found its way into Lobot's mind….DROID DISASTER

- ↑ The flashbacks of Star Wars (2020) 50 take place approximately twenty-two years after Sheev Palpatine's ascension to Emperor, which Star Wars: Timelines dates to 19 BBY, meaning they must occur around 3 ABY. The flashbacks also take place after the events of Star Wars (2020) 43, which occur after the Star Wars: Dark Droids crossover event, an event Charles Soule Unleashes Dark Droids on StarWars.com (backup link) places after Star Wars: War of the Bounty Hunters, which is dated to 3 ABY by Timelines. As Star Wars (2020) 40 takes place between War of the Bounty Hunters and Star Wars (2020) 43, its events must take place around 3 ABY.
