THX 1138 was a sentient oven created during the 21st century. In 2050, all models were recalled when the ovens stubbornly refused to cook "bad food".
This event was mentioned by Channel 8 News during their coverage of a "dissident attack" that later turned out to be nothing more than a publicity stunt on the Department's part. (TV: The Bounty Hunter)
Behind the scenes
The name is an in-joke for fans of George Lucas. Both Lucas and Lucasfilm in general have dropped several 1138 references into their products as a way to pay homage to Lucas' first film.
