Dissection droid

After warning R2-D2 of the imminent danger that he was in if he were to remain in the Great Heep's Droid harem, C-3PO was captured by the Heep and sent to be disassembled by a dissection droid. In the disassembly room, C-3PO was strapped to a table as the dissection droid readied it's instruments to take apart the Protocol droid and recycle his parts. But before the droid could make the first cut, C-3PO was able to free one of his arms and press a lever to the side of the table. The table lifted the C-3PO to the ceiling, tilted to one side, and deposited him on a conveyor belt filled with metal scrap bound for the smelter.
