[edit] History

Drol, a destructive spirit, obliterated any ship trying to leave the system. In truth, "Drol" was a system of laser emitters in orbit installed by the Confederacy of Independent Systems to prevent the inhabitants of Iego from leaving the planet. Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi spread the truth about Drol to the inhabitants of Iego, and destroyed it by sending in remote controlled Vulture droids and destroying the main dish, bringing freedom to the planet.

[edit] Trivia

In the Dutch version of the episode, Drol was named "Grol", because "Drol" means "poo" in Dutch.

[edit] Behind the scenes

The laser web's main emitter was a dish that was shaped like the Death Star I's main firing dish, which may imply that the laser web was a Separatist prototype of the Death Star's super laser.

The web itself was reminiscent of Star Trek's Tholian web.
