The vehicle regains power, and C3P0 begins to blast the zombies as they walk back, the vehicle flies through the catacomb destroying archways in the way. R2 eventually becomes visible once more as guests encounter the Geonosian queen. She bellows a might screech as thousands of geonosians awaken and go after the vehicle, R2 blasts the roof causing the chamber to cave and allowing for an escape.
