C3PO was an Imperial Spy!

[BurnMeUp]

I believe C3PO was an Imperial spy - the evidence is all around us!

in EP 4 - during his oil bath he exclaims “Thank the Maker!” professing it in such a way that makes him seem to view Darth Vader as a benevolent god
Also, Vader sure found that Corrilian ship pretty damned easily when they stole the plans.
in EP 5 - Sure he was captured in Cloud City and taken apart - but not really destroyed aside from there being plenty of time to do so and then they let Chewbacca “find” and rescue him. Perhaps they were making some additional updates to allow him to have better tracking and allow an optical link?
in EP 6 - all of the Emperors “visions” of knowing things… couldn’t they be from captured video from C3PO?

I am a C3PO truther! and also, surprisingly not a virgin.

Yeah, well R2D2 is the only character in any of the films that can actually do something without screwing it up worse. Ever notice that?

I think in the new movie R2 finally notices it himself and decides to take the reins in an R2D Coup.

I sense the Dark Side.

C3PO got mind-wiped and did not know that Anakin make him. But if he was a spy, he was the most incompetent spy since Chico in Duck Soup.

that’s exactly what he wants you to think…isn’t that right, agent b299?

Does he wear a bow tie?

C3PO is R2’s assistant. There to distract you while he does the real magic. Only he’s not sexy (to most sentient beings anyway, I’m sure there are a few robosexuals out there who were about to protest this statement) like a magician’s assistant, so instead of a tight dress, he goes bumbling around, like comic relief.

Or maybe a spy for the enviable Droid Uprising since they are essentially slaves in the Star Wars universe.

I’d always thought R2D2 was a secret Jedi. He’d have to have the robotic equivalent of metamicrochloridididians, but it would explain why he was the backseat pilot to two inexperienced kids who blew up the Death Star and that other thing.

Robotic equivalent of – ?

Look, he may wear gadget-laden armor, but that’s a Kenny-Baker-sized Jedi in there.
