A few weeks before the Battle of Mandalore (527 ABY), the powerful Jedi Knight Mizar Mintif of Salnirodosk sensed that there were some Chiss individuals who were roaming the streets of his home planet. He realized that his home planet was in danger of being taken over by the Chiss. This would not be an overly hard task for the Chiss to complete since Salnirodosk did not have a large armed force, and the planet bordered Chiss Ascendancy, the region of the galaxy that the Chiss species controlled. Therefore, the Chiss planned on doing some colonization of Salnirodosk, and then adding it to the Chiss Ascendancy.
Mintif therefore talked to the Jedi Council and top Republic officers, and gained permission to take 200 of the best troopers of the Republic Military Army A [all from the Hinile Company and Hequrth's Company (Narnuia declined the offer since he knew the Red Empire could potentially sense his company's secret projects)] to Salnirodosk on a stealth mission. None of the troopers were allowed to be clones of Commander Ztak Nawder, because they would be easily identified (this is the same reason that no clone trooper was allowed to go on this stealth mission). The goal was to wear disguises (i.e. the weapons and armor of the small police force protecting Salnirodosk), and head to Salnirodosk to investigate.
Just after he finished changing into his disguise in the Jedi Temple, Mizar Mintif was confronted by the three most powerful current Jedi Council members (Morgurna Ryflansk VI, Northa Jarfar III, and Tifley Touk XII), who questioned the Jedi Knight on if the plan had enough troopers for the mission to be a success. After he confirmed this, Master Quorkal Alun V walked over to the scene, and reassured her fellow council members that Mintif's plan would work. He then proceeded to the Temple's exterior hanger, where he hopped onto a Jedi Speeder, and drove over to the Republic Military Barracks (i.e. the housing units for the Clone and Republic Military Armies).
When Mintif arrived at the Republic Military Barracks, Captains Morkij Hinul and Hequrth had their men (and a few women) walk into the room, also wearing the armor of the Salnirodosk Police Force. The second the troopers walked out, Lieutenant Fiara Walnyrms, an average height woman with neck length blonde hair, and the best lieutenant in the Hexadin Company (which was the company led by Hequrth), caught a glimpse of Mintif, and instantly fell in love with how handsome he was. In the meantime, Mintif told his forces that they would split into three groups, so that they could travel to Salnirodosk on public transport. This would allow them to keep their military identities a secret.
When they arrived on Salnirodosk (in the capital city), the disguised troopers instantly started scouting for Chiss individuals. Walnyrms spotted a wealthy looking Chiss male walking with a wealthy looking human female, and pointed this sighting out to Mintif. Mintif instantly recognized the woman as Lona Elmuthalleth, the wife of the capital city's mayor. He told Walnyrms as well as several other troopers to walk over to the pair to investigate. The man told Mintif and Walnyrms that his name was Sceptrum Lingott, and that he had been living on both Salnirodosk and Csilla for twenty six years. He then told the undercover Republic spies that he was a rich Csillan Commander, and that he owned the top 2 floors of the tallest residential building. Lingott then invited Mintif and his "staff" to dinner. Immediately after that, Lona proceeded to invite Mintif and his "staff" to a pre-dinner meeting in the apartment owned by her and her husband, the mayor. (The Elmuthalleths' owned the next 1.5 floors below Lingott's.).
After that, Mintif and the undercover Republic soldiers parted ways from Lingott and Lona. The Jedi Knight told Walnyrms and the other troopers that he thought that something was suspicious about Lingott, and they needed to investigate him some more before dinner.
An hour later, Mintif sensed two Chiss officers (a lieutenant and a sergeant) walking by in Infrared Holographic Disguises and Force Pushed them to the ground. The first one, Mintif had several Republic troopers chase after. The other one, he questioned personally, finding out from a mind trick that a bounty hunter was paying the Chiss to apprehend and kill Mayor Wensofa Elmuthalleth. The other Chiss officer once captured also admitted to this. The lieutenant then told Mintif that they were in Infrared Holographic Disguises, instead of regular Holographic Disguises due to the fact that most species could not see infrared.
During this whole debacle, the bounty hunter that was working with the Chiss officers stuck to their plan, and attacked Mintif and the disguised Republic troopers. This Besalisk bounty hunter, Kraz Saltafe, killed a few troopers before being captured. The Republic troopers quickly realized that Lingott, the Chiss Commander they had met earlier, may or may not be involved in the plot to kill the mayor. They quickly sent the three captives to the Salnirodosk Prison Cells. Mintif also mind tricked all the people in the area who saw him use his lightsaber, so that no one would know a Jedi was involved, and so that every thought they were members of the Salnirodosk Police Force. This also meant that Mintif and the Republic Troopers could stay undercover looking like Salnirodosk Police Officers.
Throughout all of this, Lieutenant Fiara Walnyrms was becoming very attached to Mintif. However, she did know that Jedi are not supposed to form attachments, so she tried to let go, so that her attraction to the Jedi would not lead to him also forming an attachment (since this is against the Jedi Code).
After this incident, Mintif, Walnyrms, and the other disguised Republic Troopers made their way to the tallest residential building in the capital city, the home of Lingott and the Elmuthalleths. Outside, they ordered 180 troopers to surround the skyscraper and stay hidden. This way, if the Chiss Commander Sceptrum Lingott was actually involved in the plot to kill the mayor, he would not get very far. The other 19 troopers went up to the Elmuthalleths' apartment with Mintif and Walnyrms.
While in the mayor's apartment Lona told them that the according to tradition, the mayor was supposed to be given the penthouse of the skyscraper, and the mayor's penthouse is supposed to be the top 2.5 floors of the building. However, Lingott is so rich that he was able to buy most of the penthouse from the Elmuthalleths. They kept half a floor of the standard mayor's apartment, but then moved down to the floor beneath, allowing Lingott to seize complete control over the top 2 floors (i.e. Sceptrum owned the top 2.5 floors, and the Elmuthalleths owned the next 1.5 floors). Lona then told the police officers (Jedi Knight Mintif and the Republic troopers) that Lingott had been trying to date her for the past two years. Lona only wants Lingott as a good friend, but Lingott wanted her husband, Mayor Wensofa Elmuthalleth, out of the picture, so that the two of them could start dating and potentially even marry.
A few minutes later, Mintif, the Republic troopers, and the Elmuthalleths all went up to the banquet in Lingott's home. They told him about their suspicions, and that they had caught and imprisoned two Chiss officers and a bounty hunter who were involved in a plot against the mayor. They also told Lingott that they thought he may be involved in this plot as well. Realizing that he could not stay in the dark about his plan anymore, Lingott revealed his true identity. He quickly pulled out his blaster, shooting and mortally wounding the mayor. Then, as the Republic troopers turned to open fire on him, he pulled out his red lightsaber, and started slicing many of them down. He asked Lona if she would marry him, she responded that she definitely would not marry him now that he killed her husband. Meanwhile, Mintif charged over in an attempt to defeat Lingott, which wound up only ending in a fierce duel with Lingott who was apparently undercover himself. Lingott was in reality a Dark Jedi, not a commander in the Chiss Army. Lingott then revealed that he trained himself in the ways of the Dark Side by watching holographic recording of other Dark Side Force Users.
During the duel between Lingott and Mintif, Lieutenant Walnyrms attempted to shoot Lingott. He responded by jumping over Mintif, and slicing off Walnyrms' entire right arm. As she collapsed to the ground, Mintif then attacked Lingott, forcing the Dark Jedi to turn his attention back to their duel. Mintif then used Force Push, on Lingott, pushing him through a window of his apartment, and down to Mintif's troops below. The disguised Republic Troopers then opened fire on Lingott, as the confused Dark Jedi tried to figure out why members of the Salnirodosk Police Force were attacking him.
In the meantime, Mintif told Walnyrms and Lona to check on the condition of the Mayor. Mintif then jumped out of the Dark Jedi's apartment, to intervene, and to continue his duel with Lingott. Meanwhile, the rest of Lingott's Chiss soldiers who were secretly stationed on Salnirodosk attacked what was left of the 180 disguised Republic troopers who were on guard at the bottom of the apartment building, killing many of them. The ten murderous Chiss soldiers were wearing infrared holograms, just like their captured superiors (the Chiss Sergeant and Lieutenant). However, since these ten Chiss soldiers were so heavily outnumbered, the Republic troopers were eventually able to take them all down (seven were killed while still in their infrared holographic disguises, while the other three's holographic disguises were deactivated during the brawl, before their capture.
After all of this, Lingott Force Jumped back into his apartment, killing all the surviving troopers in his apartment, except for Walnyrms. This was because this was the moment that Mintif finally was able to attack the Dark Jedi again. By that point, doctors had arrived to check on the Mayor's condition. Mintif told the doctors to take Walnyrms, as well as the presumed corpse of Mayor Wensofa Elmuthalleth to the hospital. (Wensofa was being carried by Lona.) Lingott tried to destroy the controls to the elevator right after everyone got in. However, Mintif once again stopped him. They fought back to the ground again. This time Lingott Force Choked to death all surviving Republic troopers (three happened to be originally from Salnirodosk themselves.
At this point, the two Force Sensitive individuals reached the pinnacle of their duel. Mintif swung his lightsaber at Lingott, half severing his opponent's chest. However, Lingott did the same thing back to Mintif. Lingott's lightsaber went right through the center of the Jedi Knight's chest. Mintif then told Lingott: "We both die now. This also means that the Chiss will be completely pushed off of Salnirodosk." He then pulled his lightsaber out of Lingott's chest, as Lingott was trying to do the same thing to him. The Chiss Dark Jedi fell to ground dead. Mintif then pulled Lingott's lightsaber out of his chest, also falling to the ground dead.
A day later at Mizar Mintif's Jedi Funeral, all the available Jedi Council members were in attendance, as well as many Clone Troopers, and Republic troopers, including Lieutenant Fiara Walnyrms (with a cybernetic right arm, and wearing her standard Republic uniform), as well as many civilians including the now widowed Lona Elmuthalleth.
Walnyrms said to Captain Hequrth and Commander Ztak Nawder, "I truly loved him." They responded "It doesn't matter now. He's gone. However, you did show bravery during this mission. Therefore, if you complete just one more mission with similar tactics, if not better, you will be given the rank of captain."
From there, the Funeral Theme music grew louder, and the TV episode ended.
Mintif therefore talked to the Jedi Council and top Republic officers, and gained permission to take 200 of the best troopers of the Republic Military Army A [all from the Hinile Company and Hequrth's Company (Narnuia declined the offer since he knew the Red Empire could potentially sense his company's secret projects)] to Salnirodosk on a stealth mission.
