Wis: 3Use the Force: 28 (Nat 20)  As the group fills out the paperwork, Draven is constantly running what has happened over and over in his mind. He closes his eyes and concentrates and suddenly a crucial piece of the puzzle falls into place. I think he means there was a second group supposed to be running the same adventure in competition with us, but it has fallen apart. I have no problem with any changes you want to make.
Wash: "Yeah well, if she doesn't give us some extra flow from the engine room to offset the burn through, this landing is gonna get pretty interesting."
Mal: "Define interesting."
Wash: "Oh god oh god we're all gonna die?"
Mal: "This is the captain. We have a...little problem with our engine sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence and then...explode."

I'll try to get something good up tomorrow, but I'll have to contend with a RL campaign I'm in (hopefully). Anyway, anything I do add will be edited into this post.
By retconning, I mean pretending they were never in the story to begin with, since their effect on it was minimal at best, and even though I had plans for some of them, I can easily work around those plans in favor of the smaller group.

Works fine for me. I've forgotten many of the people we started with who never posted ages ago. We didn't see enough of them to really miss them.

OK by me too.UTF (1d20+8=27) Nat 19 woo hoo! :PChase ponders over the conundrum of the case up till now... there was something lurking beneath the surface, and the Force was nudging him... telling him that all was not as it seemed...

Torin Dol follows the others, and while he watches as Draven fills out the forms required, he tries to see the patterns of the recent happenings, if there indeed are a pattern... Use The FORCE!!! (1d20 7=19)

Yes, as I'll describe below, there is a central terminal located at the security office, that T8 could use if he wished.
Also, this is minor, but seeing as Draven is the only member of the city's security, he is the only one who would need to be filling out paperwork at this time. The rest should concentrate on the next step, whatever they decide that that is. Discuss it IC or OOC, I don't really care which. Whichever method you feel most comfortable with.
Below the Sky Ramp is the Iziz Security Department, where Draven finishes typing up his report. The city is kept safe by a steady stream of information that is all fed into the central computer at this office. Video footage, live recordings, starship transponder codes, and everything else ends up in this database, where it can be collected by anyone to whom access is granted.
Wisdom: It seems possible that the pirate raids that brought you together are merely a cover-up for some bigger plot, but this is all that seems apparent. You do recall someone mentioning that the markings seen in the holo-footage earlier belonged to the Exchange, a criminal syndicate.
Use the Force: Independently of one another, the three Force-users all end up sensing the same subtle truth: there is someone with knowledge of the Force pulling the strings on Onderon. It seems that it was this person's intention to bring you to this place. None of you sense malice or hatred behind the plot, though; some other goal is being sought here.
Ultimately, whether the pirates are someone else's pawns or not, they are no longer your greatest concern.
Honestly, I wasn't planning on giving you this much information with regard to the UTF checks, but you all got some damn good rolls together.

Use Computer: 17T8 moves up to the database terminal and immediately plugs into the terminal and begins to scour the video footage, live coverage, codes for starship transponders, and anything that seems suspicious or is timed closely with the events that have unfolded so far. The search is not as fast as the droid expects and some of the computer’s internal security features are meant to keep prying eyes out and T8-K2 is unfamiliar with some of the protocols he encounters. He turns his head around to hear what the others are talking about and wonders if maybe he should ask them where they want him to search the databases more intensely. Jedi's have an uncanny sense of knowing just where to look for things. This is something T8-K2 is uniquely aware of thanks to his former master Zax's tutelage.

Draven finsihses sending off his report of the incident and sends one to his superiors telling them everything, including what he is sensing through the force, stating he will report in as soon as he has more info. He then turns his attention to the group.He assists T8 in his searching the computer after he gets the droid to explain what it is doing. He will use his security clearance and code to get what he can. He also checks to see if the bikers were caught or if they got away. He actually hopes one got away. If one did, he will attempt to use the computer to pull up surveilance footage of the chase and then try to track the bikers to where ever it is they went. Computer Use: 22As he does this he inquires as to what the group wanted to do next. First thing, I think I should get changed into civies. Then I will not draw as much attention to you as I help guide you about the city. Do you have any ideas on where you would like to look next?

T8-K2: With Draven's help, T8 takes captured images of the bikers' faces, and matches them up with two men who entered the pub immediately after the group. Tracing their movements backwards, it seems that they were on the group's trail almost immediately after their departure from the palace.
From this, the droid deduces that they must have been told that you were coming, and that narrows the list pretty far: only members of the security force who were on duty at the time, and those agents of the Queen who were involved with the investigation.
So, what is the general consensus on what you guys would like to do next? And sorry for the late response; I had a brief bout of writer's block and didn't know how to phrase the results of your rolls.
