- "I would say please but—"
"It gives you a rash."
"That and grilled ormachek." - ―Ghal Tarpfen and Velko Jahen
Grilled ormachek was a food item that gave the Mon Calamari Ghal Tarpfen a rash.[1] Around 231 BBY,[2] she mentioned it to the Soikan Velko Jahen while joking that saying "please" also resulted in a rash for the Mon Cal.[1]
