He agrees to load Organa's ship with a preliminary supply of provisions if Organa can keep the involvement of Toydaria secret.

After thorough consideration, Katuunko officially denies the Republic their rights to a base on Toydaria, but afterwards he secretly meets Organa and Binks and tells them that the humanitarian factor has actually gained his favor.

Organa and Binks stress their humanitarian intentions in the matter, but Dod points out that by agreeing to deliver supplies to Ryloth and the Republic clone troopers, Toydaria, who had declared her strict neutrality in this war, would be taking sides and thus shatter her principles. Organa and Binks are granted an audience with the king and his council, but negotiations are rendered complicated by the arrival of Lott Dod, the Senate representative of the Trade Federation sent by Count Dooku, who has caught wind of Organa's mission. Jar Jar Binks is dispatched to assist him. Since no other relief forces are close by, the Jedi Council (represented by Yoda, Mace Windu, and Obi-Wan Kenobi) asks Senator Bail Organa, who has just finished a senate mission, to travel to nearby Toydaria and ask King Katuunko to use the planet as a supply staging base. In no position to deliver supplies himself, however, as he has fallen under attack himself by the Separatist blockade, Dao makes contact with the Jedi Temple, begging that reinforcements be dispatched, before his ship is destroyed. Master Di makes contact with the Republic relief supply fleet under Admiral Dao. Jedi Master Ima-Gun Di, his clone troopers, and Twi'lek resistance leader Cham Syndulla are hard-pressed to maintain their positions against the Separatist droid army as supplies run low.
