- "Jar Jar, what are you doing?"
"Oops! Sorry, mesa fix it." - ―Mack to Jar Jar Binks
Mack was a clone trooper pilot who fought in the Clone Wars for the Galactic Republic. In 22 BBY, Mack was assigned to fly Senator Kharrus, Gungan Representative Jar Jar Binks and several Coruscant Guards to the planet Florrum in order to deliver a ransom in the form of spice to a group of pirates who had captured the Sith Lord Count Dooku. Unknown to the Republic, Turk Falso, the second man in the pirate gang, cooperated with fellow pirate Barb Mentir to betray the group's leader, Hondo Ohnaka, and steal the spice. Upon arriving in the atmosphere of Florrum, the Republic shuttle was ambushed by Mentir in a Flarestar-class Weequay ship. Mentir attacked the shuttle with his laser cannons and with two rockets. Due to interference by Binks, who accidentally removed Mack from his seat in the cockpit, the rockets hit the ship, sending it crashing into the Doshar fields on Florrum. The impact killed Mack, his partner pilot and Kharrus, but the rest of the team survived.
Biography[]
Mack disentangles himself from the troublesome Binks
The clone trooper pilot who adopted the nickname Mack was one of the many clones of the Mandalorian bounty hunter Jango Fett, which were born on the Wild Space planet Kamino to fight for the Galactic Republic.[1] In 22 BBY,[2] the leader of the Confederacy of Independent Systems Count Dooku was captured by a group of Weequay pirates. Ohnaka contacted Supreme Chancellor Palpatine and agreed to hand Dooku over to the Republic for a ransom of one million credits' worth of spice.
Mack was one of the pilots assigned to fly Senator Kharrus and Representative Binks to deliver the spice ransom to Hondo Ohnaka on Florrum. He was killed when the Nu-class attack shuttle he was co-piloting was shot down by a rogue member of Ohnaka's gang.
Personality and traits[]
Although Mack was a trained clone trooper pilot, he was unable to evade the rockets launched by Mentir due to the interference of Binks.[4]
Behind the scenes[]
Mack was first featured in "The Gungan General," an episode of the first season of the Clone Wars TV series. He was voiced by Dee Bradley Baker, who voices all clone troopers in the series.[5]
