Episode I: The Source Awakens
The episode begin with the characters from Star Wars coming to The Walt Disney Studios. R2-D2 and C-3PO meet Nerville, Cathy, and the little dumplings. The TV turns on to reveal the Narrator and he tells them the story about Zippy and friends meeting Star Wars. Flambo and Jane break into the Imperial Corporate Offices, steals a disc containing the plans for the Death Star, and rendezvouses with Princess Leia's ship. Meanwhile, on the planet Tatooine, Zippy Skywalker is a prodigy pod racer the younger cousin of Luke Skywalker and lives with his parents and brother, Zane as contented moisture farmers. Darth Vader's Star Destroyer intercepts Leia's ship, forcing her to load the disc into R2-D2, but she is observed by a trio of Imperial stormtroopers, including Von, Hazel, and Teddy. They attempt to report the actions of the Rebels to the empire but is put down by her commanding officer. After seeing R2-D2 and C-3PO entering an escape pod, the trio decide to pursue them in a second escape pod and prove their worth by recapturing the lost plans, with Flambo and Jane secretly hitching a ride with them.

32 years ago, Queen Padmé Amidala and her Jedi guardians Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi were escaping the Trade Federation's occupation of Naboo. Turbolaser fire from the Federation blockade damages the ship's hyperdrive, in the process sending Jar Jar Binks into the vacuum of space. After a brief repair on the hyperdrive, thanks to R2, her starship runs out of fuel and crash lands on Tatooine, where Qui-Gon, R2 and the queen (disguised as a handmaiden) visit a junk shop where two young Jedi Mr. Red and Larry Zippington meet Anakin Skywalker and C-3PO. Because of Anakin's Force-sensitivity, Qui-Gon offers him a chance at freedom from slavery, while his owner, Watto, loudly sells red flags in the background (a comedic foreshadowing at the outcome of Qui-Gon's decision).

In the present, Darth What's-It's-Face arrives with his Sith apprentice Darth Whiskers at the Death Star. He reveals that he has a new invention that is even more evil, but that requires the Force to power it. Von, Hazel, Teddy, Shadow, and the other stormtroopers are on the trail of the droids until their commander sends them into Mos Eisley. Flambo and Jane continues trailing the droids as they are seized by Jawas and sold to Owen Lars, and eventually absconds with R2-D2. They run into Zippy and his friend Wet Willy on their way to Obi-Wan Kenobi's, whom Zippy and Willy are acquainted with as he has given them instruction in the Jedi arts. Despite their offer of a ride, R2-D2 continues on his own while Flambo and Jane remain unseen by the duo, unaware that their collision has resulted in the Death Star disc remaining in the back seat of Zippy's speeder.

Upon discovering the disc, Zippy and Willy set out to return it to R2-D2, which takes them to Mos Eisley where they encounter Watto's son Blatto. With Blatto's help they discover that the disc contains the Death Star plans, and they are pursued after being spotted by Stormtroopers led by Von. The duo just miss R2-D2 departing with Luke, Obi-Wan, C-3PO, Han Solo, and Chewbacca aboard the Millennium Falcon. The pair meet Jenny who is a rebel pilot and explains the Death Star plans must be sent to Obi-Wan Kenobi. Determined to return the disc, they asked their friend Ceela for help. But she refuses claiming it's not her problem. She changes her mind when her home was destroyed and her parents were kidnapped. Later, while traveling, the four are attacked by scavenging Sand People while searching for them, but are rescued by elderly hermit "Wally" Red, an acquaintance of Zippy's. Master Red tells Zippy of his days as one of the Jedi Knights, the former peacekeepers of the Galactic Republic who drew mystical abilities from a metaphysical energy field known as "the Force", but were ultimately hunted to near-extinction by the Empire. Zippy learns that his father fought alongside Red and Larry as a Jedi Knight during the Clone Wars until What's-It's-Face, Red's former pupil, turned to the dark side of the Force and murdered him. Red offers Zippy his father's old lightsaber, the signature weapon of Jedi Knights.

They travel to the Mos Eisley cantina and are introduced to Zoomie, captain of the Machinable Eagle and an rival of Han Solo's and his co-pilot Jolly. Zoomie agrees to transport them; meanwhile, Von returns to the Death Star. Meanwhile, aboard the Death Star, What's-It's-Face learns that he can extract Force energy from Darth Vader's trash just before the planet Alderaan is destroyed. The Eagle catches up to the Millennium Falcon, but both end up caught in a tractor beam; the Eagle is freed after Ceela modifies the ship so that it can take on the appearance of a doughnut-selling spaceship.

Back in the past, Young Red and Larry watch Anakin enter the Boonta Eve Classic, where he wins the race, earning enough money to buy the hyperdrive and leaving Shmi and 3PO behind. Back at the crashed starship, Red informs the others that the Trade Federation is attacking the capitol of Naboo with its droid army, and Padmé declares that she will protect her people no matter the cost.

Once aboard the Death Star disguised as Stormtroopers, Zippy is surprised and delighted to run into Flambo and Jane. Flambo and Jane make their way to Darth Whiskers' lair, only for Flambo to end up encased in carbonite and left helpless as Darth Whiskers unveils his new Sith-laser, a machine that will make him a Sith Lord even more evil than Vader. Red leaves the others to turn off the tractor beam, unknowingly passing Obi-Wan Kenobi on the way. After disabling the tractor beam, Red sacrifices himself in a lightsaber duel against What's-It's-Face. Elsewhere, Zippy and Wet Willy run into Von, Hazel, Teddy, and Shadow, who pursues them, only for Ceela to save them. Darth Whiskers is then attacked by a freed Flambo (who is freed by Jane), while Zippy gives Zoomie the Death Star disc to take to the Rebels while he goes looking for Flambo.

Entering What's-It's-Face's lair, Zipper discovers an upgraded Sith-inator and Darth Vader himself. Upon learning that Vader intends to create an army of Sith and rule the dark side, Zippy reluctantly confronts him in a lightsaber duel, in which both of them upgrade their lightsabers to possess multiple blades. Zoomie travels to Yavin and delivers the Death Star plans, but despite the appeals of Jolly, Willy, Ceela, and Jenny refuses to join the Rebel Alliance. He changes her mind after a tense conversation with Han and Chewbacca, also convincing him to return to the rebels to help Luke. Back on the Death Star, the battles between Flambo and Jane and Darth Whiskers and Zippy and Vader continue and intersect, until Willy comes to Zippy's aid. Together they manage to destroy the Sith-inator, and the duo-along with Ceela and Jenny-depart to get to the bus that brought the stormtroopers to the Death Star, but it leaves before they can get on it. Perry also leaves with a carbonite-encased Darthenshmirtz, while the rebels begin their attack on the Death Star.

In the past, Back at Theed, Larry flies up to participate in the fight to destroy the droid control ship, while Quincy and Red are confronted by Darth Max, who crushes Quincy to death with a pile of rubble from the hangar ceiling. As he struggles vainly to free himself from the debris (with only his left arm shown), Quincy begs Red to avenge him as the Padawan and Max battle in the generator complex, where Red slices off Max's head in a comedic fashion. Afterwards, the citizens of Theed celebrate their victory. Obi-Wan, under pressure from Anakin's glaring attitude, promises to begin his training today. Zurgo intends to watch Larry's career with "great interest". Watto appears out of nowhere with a flashing danger sign (another foreshadowing at the outcome of their relationship).

Left stranded on the doomed battle station, What's-It's-Face learned that Zippy faced Vader. Before What's-It's-Face can expound on the subject, the Death Star detonates. Fortunately, Zoomie and Jolly return in the nick of time and saves the group, as well as all of the civilian personnel from the Death Star. Darth What's-It's-Face frees Darth Whiskers and escaped Flambo's ship on a small escape pod, while Flambo and Jane make his way to Yavin to join the celebration attending the Death Star's destruction.
