An incensed Tamson doubles his efforts in tracking down Prince Lee - Char , unleashing the reinforcements given to him by Count Dooku in an assault that churns the oceans . " " Plot summary . With but the tiniest fighting strength left to operate and only a brief time to tell the Jedi High Council about their predicament before communication is cut off , Anakin Skywalker , Padmé Amidala , Ahsoka , Kit Fisto and Captain Gial Ackbar decide to get Prince Lee - Char and Mon Cala senator Meena Tills to their ship and out of the system to safety . Fisto manages to overpower a Quarren patrol and appropriate a couple of aquasleds to get the fugitives to the surface quickly . But Riff Tamson has anticipated that move and blows the ship up before the Jedi and Mon Cala can even reach the surface . Clinging onto the sinking debris , the fugitives allow themselves to be dragged down to the seabed , where they split up into two groups : Anakin goes with Padmè , Ackbar and Tills while Ahsoka and Fisto accompany the Prince , along with two rescued clone SCUBA trooper s . Expecting Republic reinforcements to come here soon , Anakin and his groups proceed to the Mon Calamari central planetary scanner facility , where Anakin uses telekinesis to collapse the entire structure , rendering planetary defenses blind . In the meantime , Lee - Char witnesses from his hiding place how his people are led away into slavery . Desperate to aid them , but advised by Ahsoka to exercise caution in favor of recklessness , Lee - Char uses a seashell horn to inform his people that he is still alive and encourages them to hold on . In the meantime , the Jedi Council is faced with the fact that they will have no clone force ready and equipped for underwater battle in time to aid the fugitives . Then Obi - Wan suggests asking the Gungan s on Naboo , since they are amphibious creatures . With Jar Jar Binks ' fervent support , the Gungan High Council agrees to help at once and sends the Gungan Grand Army to Mon Cala , just in time to render valuable aid to the fugitives . Tamson , however , quickly rallies his own forces and uses his " Trident " ships to create artificial whirlpools at the two battle sites , disorienting the Jedi and Gungan forces and thus faciliating their capture . Tamson himself goes after the Prince once more , but Kit Fisto manages to engage him in close combat for long enough to allow Lee - Char and Ahsoka to escape . As their friends are led into captivity , Lee - Char begins to despair over their loss and that only he and Ahsoka are left to fight on . The young Padawan gently advises him , however , not to give in to his doubts and fear , and re - encouraged , Lee - Char vows to bring an end to this war before he and Ahsoka retreat to a new hiding place .
