Because of Jar Jar's clumsiness, he accidentally drove a tank into the energy lines. The clones hid, and Jar Jar went to "negotiate" with them. On the way, they sighted three pirate tanks heading their way. He spotted energy lines, and he thought that they would lead to the base, so he went after them.
The clones and Binks recovered the spice and looked for the pirate's base. Soon, they caught up to the pirates and a small skirmish started between them. While they were in the geysers, Representative Binks surprisingly found that the skalders were able to know when the geysers were to erupt, so when the clones got out and couldn't find the spice, Jar Jar insisted on using the beasts. The Republic troops retreated into a geyser. Stone ordered them into a defensive position and the pirates cut off the clone troopers and Gungan from their ship to steal the spice. While they were trying to fix it, Jar Jar spotted Turk Falso and other Weequay pirates far off, traveling towards them. Jar Jar Binks insisted of burying the Senator, so he did, while Stone and the others tried to fix the homing beacon, but it didn't work. The impact killed Senator Kharrus, so Representative Binks (who was going to help with the "negotiations") was in charge, instead of Commander Stone, much to the dismay of the other troopers. The pilots of the ship, including Mack, entered the atmosphere, and a Flarestar-class ship attacked them, forcing them to crash on the surface of the planet. Because pirates were not to be trusted, an escort was sent with him, an escort of four troopers, including Stone.
He demanded a ransom from them in the form of spice, and Senator Kharrus was sent to deliver it. In 21 BBY, pirate Hondo Ohnaka captured Jedi Generals Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi on Florrum, while they were negotiating for the Sith lord, Count Dooku.
