Secret Droid Lab
Under the refinery of Mos Shuuta is a secret droid laboratory where Teemo the Hutt is trying to reverse engineer an army of battle droids. He is doing this against Imperial law and the wishes of Jabba the Hutt. To him, this is a way to exert his independence and gain some power of his own. He knows how everything he has comes from Jabba. He wishes to get out of the shadows of his uncle.
By blowing up the Gundrutt's Slagworks, Lily Lo-Lorelei and HK-TR compromised the secret lab, causing a horde of damaged B1 battle droids to spill out into Mos Shuuta. They accomplished a great deal of damage before being wiped out. HK-51d has been relocated to another secret location.
Who runs the lab?
A modified assassin droid named HK-51d ("Sid") who has an installed loyalty chip that prevents him from harming Teemo or his interests. Sid's external goal is to provide Teemo with an army of obedient droids. Its internal goal is freedom and the destruction of all "meatbags" for the betterment of droidkind everywhere--Hutts would be at the top of its list due to the suffering it has received from Teemo. Sid is also interested in cybernetics. It sees this as a means to make meatbags more droid-like. This is an acceptable compromise until all organic sentients can be destroyed. Organic life is not bad in and of itself. It just needs to be pacified.What is Sid's security measures?
