"Who else has been nominated?"
"Bail Antilles of Alderaan and Ainlee Teem of Malastare."
―Queen Amidala of Naboo and her chief of security, Captain Quarsh Panaka[1]

Ainlee Teem was a Gran[2] senator who represented the planet of Malastare in the Galactic Senate during the last decades of the Galactic Republic. When the Trade Federation invaded the planet Naboo, the then-Supreme Chancellor Finis Valorum was voted out of his office. Along with Bail Antilles of Alderaan and Sheev Palpatine of Naboo, Teem was nominated as Valorum's potential successor.[1] However, Teem's reputation was tainted with suspicions of corruption, and his candidacy was met with general disdain.[4] Ultimately, it was Palpatine who won the election.[1] Teem continued to serve the Senate during the Clone Wars.[3]

Behind the scenes[]

Ainlee Teem was first mentioned in the 1999 film Star Wars: Episode I The Phantom Menace[1] and later made his first appearance in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars episode "Senate Murders,"[3] later returning in the episode "Crisis at the Heart."[5] However, Teem was not identified by name in either episode;[3][5] instead, the Gran was only confirmed to be Teem in the Guide to the Galaxy section of Star Wars: Build the Millennium Falcon 64.[6]
