- "Em Teedee: Master Lowbacca says, "May no sun rise upon a day, nor any moon rise upon a night, in which he is not as honored to see you, and to be in your presence, as he is at this very moment."

Em Teedee: So what if I did embellish a bit? I was only attempting to make you sound more civilized.

- ―Em TeeDee to Tenel Ka[src]
- "Really, Master Lowbacca, do try to be careful! You've dropped me again, and that's simply careless. How would you like it if your head detached and kept falling on the ground? I am an extremely valuable piece of equipment and you ought to take better care of me. If my circuits become damaged I won't be able to translate, and where will you be? I can't believe—"
- ―Em TeeDee, before being switched off by Lowbacca[src]

- ―Em TeeDee[src]
- "Wrong with me? Why nothing. Quite the contrary. As an expression of their complete confidence in me, Brakiss and Tamith Kai have had my programming enhanced. I feel much better now than I ever have. I am to be an integral part of your instruction here. You must realize that they have only your best interests at heart. The Empire is your friend."
- ―Em TeeDee after having his programming "enhanced"[src]
- Em TeeDee: "Master Lowbacca says that he most fervently hopes a comet will crash into the vacation home of the designer of this subsystem."
- Lowbacca: "[growls]"
- Em TeeDee: "Well, how am I supposed to know that you don't wish me to translate Wookiee epithets? Although you must admit, I certainly captured the feeling well. Why think of all the idioms I have to parse during a single—"
- —Em TeeDee and Lowbacca, before Em TeeDee is switched off by Lowbacca[src]
