[edit] Biography
CZ-4 came under the ownership of Jabba the Hutt, and was modified to work as a watchdog, warning his master of any sign of threat from within or without the palace walls.
The stress of his job regularly left CZ-4 feeling strained, and at times when not needed by Jabba he would temporarily switch himself off.
When C-3PO and R2-D2 were brought before Jabba's supervisor droid EV-9D9 inside the palace's droid workshop, CZ-4 was resting against a wall. As C-3PO was ushered out by the Gamorrean guard Jubnuk, he suddenly came face to face with the motionless, skeletal-looking CZ-4, and let out a wail in startlement.
Later, when Luke Skywalker made his appearance before Jabba requesting that Han Solo be released, CZ-4 was back up in the palace throne room.
CZ-4 was likely moments away from alerting Jabba of Luke's newly acquired blaster from Nizuc Bek, but was interrupted in following his protocol, as Jabba immediately dropped Luke into his rancor pit. CZ-4 was destroyed while he was on board jabba's sail barge while working in the passenger suites.
