Toydarian double-reverse spinner

The Toydarian double-reverse spinner was a tactic wherein one party would assume the other party is aware of their plans. The first party would then do something to make the other party believe that they've successfully figured out the plan, thereby making them careless and overconfident.

In 43 ABY, Captain Han Solo used the tactic on Chief of State Natasi Daala when he and group of Jedi Knights smuggled their maddened Jedi prisoners out of Coruscant. Solo flew the Millennium Falcon and proceeded to break every procedure in how to depart from the planet, attracting the attention of Coruscant's orbital control. By departing so haphazardly, Solo reinforced into Daala the belief that the Jedi knew Daala was aware of their plans to smuggle the prisoners out, and were making a run for it. Making the security force believe that the prisoners were aboard the Falcon, Solo led them into a fruitless chase while the ship that actually carried the prisoners quietly slipped out of the planet.
