The Original Trilogy / Re: Tantive IV crew

Speaking of the crew, what do you guys think of the droids seen leaving the ship with the crew? Rebel comrades of R2-D2, or Imperial droids brought on board to search the ship's computers?
Traditionally they have been called Imperial droids, but I always thought it was noteworthy that it looked liked they were being escorted under guard like the crew. Stormies left first, then the droids, then the crew, then more stormies. It also seems likely that the Tantive IV would have had more than just one R2 unit, like how the Naboo Cruiser had 6 droids. We also didn't really see what happened with the other 3P0 unit from the start of the attack.
