" " Clone trooper Tup is scheduled for transport to Coruscant , where the Supreme Chancellor ' s own doctor s will closely examine him . Fives breaks protocol and defies orders to dig up answers , and discovers that there is an organic construct of unknown purpose hidden in the brain s of all clone trooper s . " " Plot summary . Shaak Ti and Nala Se enter the medical suite where Fives is being held . He asks what Chancellor Palpatine ' s decision was regarding Tup ' s tumor , and Shaak Ti tells him it will be sent to the Grand Republic Medical Facility on Coruscant . Fives expects he will be sent to Coruscant too , but Nala Se tells him he was not part of the Chancellor ' s request , and that they would know more about the condition if Fives had not taken matters into his own hands . Fives retorts that he was trying to save his friend ' s life , and Nala Se replies that the removal of the tumor may have killed him . Fives argues that she was going to kill and dissect him anyway and he deserved better . Shaak Ti orders Fives to stand down , and tells Nala Se that there is no evidence for her theory that Tup ' s actions were caused by a virus . She informs them that she is sending the tumor to the Jedi Temple for analysis . Nala Se replies that the Chancellor ordered it to be sent directly to the medical facility , and Shaak Ti replies it will be — after the Jedi have analyzed it . Nala Se protests , but Shaak Ti says her word is final . She tells Fives that if he passes one more physical test , he will be sent back to the 501st . Just before Fives leaves , he sees a medical droid swap the case containing the tumor with another . As Fives is escorted through the corridors , he sees AZI - 3 being escorted in the other direction . The droid apologizes for not being able to save Tup , and asks Fives if he is going to be reprogrammed as well . Fives says he is returning to his legion , but AZI - 3 says that ' s not what he heard : that Fives was to have his memory erased and be placed on sanitation duty on Kamino . Fives escapes from the clone security guards , and he and AZI - 3 head back to the medical suite as one of the Kaminoans activates an alarm . Back in the medical suite , Fives confirms that the droid switched the cases , and takes the tumor with him . They head to the docking bay , and Fives knocks out a clone pilot and takes his shuttle pod . As he and AZI - 3 fly out of the city , Shaak Ti and a squad of ARC troopers arrive , and the Jedi orders the ship to be tracked . Over the seas of Kamino , Fives activates the ship ' s autopilot , and he and AZI - 3 jump into the water . One of the droid ' s survival modes allow them to ride back to Tipoca City . Nala Se contacts Darth Tyranus , telling him that the renegade clone has stolen the inhibitor chip , but that he knows nothing about its purpose or function . Tyranus is disturbed by these events , and questions whether the clone army will live up to the Kaminoans ' design . Nala Se assures him that Tup ' s malfunction was an aberration , and that Fives ' subsequent divergent behavior is due to the Jedi instilling " creative thinking " in their troops . Tyranus warns her that the true purpose of the chip must not be discovered by the Jedi . Re - entering the city via a service hatch , Fives and AZI - 3 steal a clone trooper ' s armor . At Kamino ' s Genetic Records Hall , AZI - 3 compares the tumor ' s DNA to that of Jango Fett , the original donor of the clones ' genetic material . The scan confirms that the tumor does not match the Jango Fett genotype , and is not completely organic either , and was therefore implanted in Tup . Shaak Ti receives a report that Fett ' s genotype has been accessed , and she orders the room to be evacuated as she races there with Nala Se . Fives notices the Kaminoans leaving the room , and asks if there is another way out . Shaak Ti and her troops arrive , firing stun blasts at the fugitives , as Fives and AZI - 3 escape through a hatch in the ceiling and weld it shut behind them . As they navigate the service tunnels , AZI - 3 theorizes that the tumor is an organic chip of an unknown purpose . Despite the risks , Fives tells the droid to operate on him to see if he also has an implanted chip , and to remove it . They make their way to a sterile suite and AZI - 3 begins the surgery . In the control room , Nala Se says they must have left Kamino by now , but Shaak Ti thinks they are investigating , not escaping . Fives awakens from his surgery , and AZI - 3 confirms that he also had a chip , genetically identical to Tup ' s chip which had malfunctioned . Determined to establish if every clone was implanted with a chip , they head to the embryo room . One of the Kaminoans in the training room they pass through reports them to Nala Se , who leaves the room , watched by Shaak Ti . AZI - 3 ' s scans discover that the chips are implanted into every clone embryo at Stage 3 of their development . Nala Se enters the room , and tells them that the purpose of the chips is to inhibit the aggression of their genetic model , Jango Fett . Shaak Ti and her troopers also arrive , and Fives tells her about the chips . Nala Se states that the clones are Kaminoan property , and that Fives must be destroyed , however Shaak Ti corrects her : the clones belong to the Republic , and she orders Fives and the chips to be sent to Coruscant to be presented to the Chancellor .
