A transport ship, owned by Ephant Mon, served as his vessel for a smuggling operation on Cerea. This event took place before the Invasion of Naboo. Unfortunately, the ship had a severe divvik infestation. Mon, together with the Techrats and a Sylvn, found themselves stuck inside an escape pod. Fortunately, Ki-Adi-Mundi, a Jedi Knight, arrived and saved them by activating the pod's manual release.
