Deep Ear was a division within the Bothan Spynet, directed by Borsk Fey'lya throughout the time of the Galactic Civil War. This particular group obtained the schematics for the Death Star II while aboard the vessel known as the Suprosa, subsequently escaping to the world of Gellefon. During their stay on Gellefon, the majority of Deep Ear's operatives were apprehended by Governor Schennt, but were quickly liberated by a Rebels strike team brought in by Watcher. Following their liberation, the group proceeded to deliver the plans to Alliance High Command located at Keff Base situated within the Sullust system.
The moniker "Deep Ear" clearly alludes to Deep Throat, which was the code name used by the informant who revealed the details of the Watergate scandal.
