"Desperate times call for desperate measures!" "In one of the longest and fiercest battles of the war," "Separatist forces are on the verge of claiming the planet Malastare." "If the Republic loses this planet, it will cost them vital fuel resources necessary for maintaining their armies." "In a final effort to turn the tide of this battle," "Supreme Chancellor Palpatine has authorized the use of the Republic's newest weapon, the electro-proton bomb." "Now at the imperial palace of Doge Urus, the leader of the Dugs, the Jedi count down the minutes until the detonation of their doomsday device." "That's a lot of clankers." "I won't allow my people to become Separatist slaves." "I assure you, Doge Urus, that will not happen." "Dr. Boll has stated that only droids will be affected by the bomb's electron field." "Yes." "The clones and your people will be quite safe." "We have accounted for every probable outcome." "It's the improbable that concerns me, Doctor." "There must be other options." "I'm afraid not." "This bomb is our only hope for victory now." "The droids are on the move." "Go!" "Go!" "We just need to hold them back until the bomb drops." "Blast them!" "Hold the line!" "We've got fighters inbound!" "Tell the bombers to take off." "Approaching drop zone." "Everyone, stay tight." "Remember, you've only got one shot at this." "Bombs away." "Uh-oh." "Here it comes!" "I'm losing my transmission." "Well, Doc, looks like it worked." "The ground is sinking." "Run for it!" "The droid army was completely neutralized by the bomb." "But the blast created a sinkhole which engulfed many of our troopers." "We have search parties looking for them now." "And the Dugs?" "Have they signed the treaty?" "No, Chancellor, the treaty must be passed by the council." "We need that treaty signed so we can gain access to the fuel reserves here on Malastare." "Without it, our armies shall be vulnerable." "I will do my best." "Sir, we have a report from the front." "They've lost contact with the rescue team." "One problem always seems to replace another." "I hope your bomb has not upset the delicate balance of our planet." "You deal with the treaty and Doge Urus." "I'll help the rescue team in the crater." "Split up." "If you see anything, contact me." "General Windu, we found them!" " We've got what we..." " We're on a very tight timeline here." "How long do you think it'll take to get the treaty ratified?" "We are waiting for two more members of the council to arrive." "They will sign the treaty." "We appreciate your cooperation." "Without your fuel, our offensive will grind to a halt." "This is the beginning of a great alliance." "What happened down here, trooper?" "General, there's something down here with us, and it's not Seppies." "Calm yourself, soldier." "We'll check it out." "Trapper, Ponds, Hawkeye, come with me." "Skywalker, something strange is going on." "I think you should come down here." "I'm on my way." "Artoo, start up my fighter." "If you'll excuse me..." "Sir, there's nothing around here but rocks and debris." "I have a bad feeling about this." "Skywalker!" " I'm here." "What the..." "We need your help!" "Artoo, I can't see." "Turn on your beacon." "Never mind." "What the heck is that thing?" "Now's our chance." "Let's go!" "I've never seen anything like it!" "Artoo, get out of here." "What?" "Uh-oh." "We're going to need some heavy artillery." "Don't worry about me, I'm all right." " Where's your starfighter?" " That thing ate it." "That thing, it is a Zillo Beast." "They once roamed Malastare, devouring our ancestors." "When the Dugs first started harvesting the fuel in the planet's core, they were killed off." "They are supposed to be extinct." "Apparently, they're not." "His weakness..." "What's going on out there?" "It is an internal matter." "None of your concern." " Your men are killing a unique life form." " It is a dangerous, bloodthirsty monster!" " Did you forget that it tried to kill you?" " It was under attack." "It had lived peacefully below the surface for all these years." "Until you unleashed it with your bomb!" "We dropped that bomb to save your planet, at your request!" "To save our fuel for you to buy." "If you want us to sign your treaty, then you must help us destroy the beast." "What purpose would it serve to kill it?" "If it really is the last of its kind..." "It is our duty!" "Our ancestors warned us that one would return someday and destroy our entire civilization." "Will you help us or not?" "I respect your traditions and your ancestors, but we cannot allow the destruction of an innocent life form." "Then there will be no treaty." "Master Windu, are you certain this argument is worth it?" "I mean, after all, it's just one creature." "Remember what the Chancellor said." "It isn't the creature." "It's the principle." "Allowing the Dugs to kill it violates what we stand for as Jedi." "But if we choose to defend the creature, we lose all hope of securing a treaty with the Dugs." "We'll handle this our way, no matter what these Jedi think." "How remarkable!" "I have never seen anything quite like it." "I recommend that we transport it off the planet as soon as possible." "We can find a place for it to live undisturbed in the Outer Rim." "And what do the Dugs have to say on this matter?" "They want us to help them destroy it." "Then by all means help them." "This creature is of no importance to us." "We cannot be alienating the Dugs at this crucial time." "It is not the Jedi way to take an innocent life." " Especially if it is the last of its kind." " Chancellor Palpatine," "I think it would be in our best interest to study this creature." "Its outer scales are virtually impenetrable." "None of our weapons could harm it." "Even my lightsaber couldn't cut it." "If we could somehow duplicate that for our ships..." "An impenetrable armor." "What if we let the Dugs think we killed it?" "Then we could have the treaty and the creature." " Yes, Anakin, go on." " When I was climbing on the creature," "I noticed small gaps between the armor and its scales." "Maybe a stun cannon or a pulse could penetrate through the skin and short-circuit its nervous system." "Like putting it into a deep sleep." "He's right." "It would appear to be dead." "We could transport it to a secure location before it wakes up." "The Dugs would never know the difference." "That may be the only way we shall get this treaty signed and rest Master Windu's conscience." "I'm glad you finally decided to see things our way, Jedi." "But you're a fool if you think your weapons will even scratch Zillo Beast." "These are no ordinary weapons." "Your Zillo Beast will be no match for them." "Maybe true." "But our way is already proven." "Your way?" "Open the valve!" "Our fuel is deadly to the beast." "It killed them in the past." "It will kill this one now." "You're only going to provoke it." "You'll drive it out of that hole," " and then it'll be harder to deal with." " We'll handle it, Jedi." " Order them to stop!" " What?" "What do you mean, stop?" " I said, order them to stop!" " Or what?" "We are innocent life forms, too, are we not?" "Charge up the rays!" "Fire." "Back up." "Back up!" "This isn't working!" "Whose bright idea was this, anyway?" "Keep the beam on him, he's getting tired." "Hey, it worked!" " Are you sure?" " Yes, I'm sure." "You go first." "Now we just have to get him out of here." "Welcome to the Republic, Doge Urus." "I am sure this business arrangement will be mutually beneficial." "The beast has been loaded onto the transport." "Have you selected a planet for relocation?" "There has been a slight change of plans." "The scientific community has reviewed the data on this rather unique creature." "They believe it should be further studied in a more controlled environment before it is released into the wild." " And where is this controlled environment?" " On Coruscant." "Master Windu, you and General Skywalker shall safely bring the beast here." "Well, you made the right choice." "We got our fuel, you saved your creature, and now he'll be safe." "Let's hope we can say the same about Coruscant." "English" " SDH" "A calculated risk!" "Following a costly victory on the planet Malastare," "Chancellor Palpatine orders Jedi Knights Mace Windu and Anakin Skywalker to transport a fearsome Zillo Beast captured during the battle back to Coruscant." "After seeing that not even a lightsaber could harm the Beast," "Chancellor Palpatine hopes to unlock the secret of its invulnerability to create new armor for the Republic's clone troopers." "Tensions run high as the most dangerous life form in the galaxy touches down on the Republic's most populous planet." "Let's go!" "Move it!" "Move it!" "Come on." "Come on!" "I can see him." "Stand your ground." "Watch it!" "Watch it!" " You are clear." "You are clear." " Copy that." "No, no, don't stop." " Yes, sir." "Your Excellency." "Such size, such power." "With respect, Chancellor," "I believe this creature could pose any number of dangers." "Bringing it here to Coruscant is a mistake." "I assure you I did not make this decision lightly, Master Jedi." "The sooner we unlock the Zillo Beast's secrets, the sooner we can end this terrible war." "I hope you're right, Chancellor." "I'm turning the Zillo Beast over to you, Doctor." "I trust it will be given good care." "The Beast is a priceless resource, Master Windu." "It will be well treated, I assure you." "Why would the Chancellor want to bring the Beast here?" "I know that he thinks by studying it, the knowledge could prove beneficial, but from what you and Anakin reported on Malastare, it hardly seems worth the effort." "I raised the issue with the Chancellor during the Battle of Malastare, without success." "Well then, in that case, perhaps it's time we let someone else try." "That's enough." "Its scales are remarkably strong and light." "If we could examine their composition, we might be able to synthesize them to reinforce our clone armor." " And what is stopping you?" " We need to remove the scales first." "It's very difficult, not to mention painful." "Would it not be more efficient to simply kill the Beast?" "Kill it?" "Are you sure?" "Chancellor, I must protest." "Besides being the last of its kind, this creature may be intelligent." "I find that hard to believe." "It is, after all, just an animal." "It didn't seem to like your comment." "I applaud your high moral stance, Doctor." "After all, principle is in short supply these days." "However, every passing minute of warfare brings countless deaths, deaths that could be prevented once the Beast's secrets are unlocked." "If there is any way to hasten that process, it is our moral duty to explore it." "I serve at your pleasure, Chancellor." "I'm just not sure where to begin." "The fact remains that the Beast is indestructible." "Nothing is truly indestructible, Doctor." "Wasn't there something in Malastare fuel that affected the Beast?" " It weakened the Zillo, yes, but..." " Excellent." "I suggest you start there." "Doctor, you need to find a way to kill that Beast, or we shall replace you with someone who can." "Oh, hello!" "You're not in trouble again, are you?" "I am not being rude." "Not that it isn't a pleasure, Senator, but I thought I was just meeting Obi-Wan here." "Master Kenobi explained the problem." "I'm here to help." "Problem?" "What problem?" "The situation with our friend from Malastare." "Uh-huh." "I see what's going on here." "You think I can help influence the Chancellor." "The Zillo Beast was chained up and brought here against its will." "It has no voice to defend itself." "Anakin, we have to be that voice." "You haven't seen it in action." "You have no idea what it's capable of." "It's what we're capable of that frightens me." "A creature's life, maybe even an entire species, is at stake." "Doesn't that at least warrant a discussion?" "I didn't think you'd feel so strongly about it." "All right, let's speak to the Chancellor." "But I still don't like this." "I should have known secrets do not stay secret for long around here." "Isn't that precisely the point of a democracy?" "Of course, in wartime, some things must be kept secret." "Even from the people, so as not to aid the enemy." "It is unfortunate that the Beast must die, Senator." "But the greater good demands it." "How is killing the last of a species, in secret and without debate, good for anyone?" "Don't you have more pressing issues that require your attention today?" "No, Mr. Speaker, I do not." "I sympathize, my dear, truly I do." "But consider this." "A democracy is only as strong as the people who comprise it." "At present, the people I am charged with protecting are dying faster than I can count." "It is my moral imperative to take action." "Anakin, is it not worth the life of one savage beast to give our brave troops the advantage they need to win this war?" "My role is not to set policy, Chancellor, but I do see both points of view." "I'm certain a reasonable solution will present itself." "Master Kenobi has taught you well." "Chancellor." "Excuse me." "You are supposed to be helping!" "Whose side are you on, anyway?" "Yours, but you must admit the Chancellor makes some good points." "Ah, Doctor Boll, I trust you have some progress to report." "Yes, Chancellor." "I was able to convert the Malastare fuel toxin into a poison gas." "I believe it's now strong enough to kill the Zillo Beast, if that's still how you wish to proceed." "I wish I saw an alternative." "However, sadly I must ask you to proceed with your assignment." "I'm sorry." "Don't worry, it will all be over soon." "Begin procedure." "Vital signs are dropping." "No." "It should have been enough." "I don't like the sound of that." "If that creature is as powerful as they say, what good are these rifles gonna be?" "Ah, shut up, Kosmos." "I'm on it, Leader." "Take it down!" "Take it down!" "Man down!" "You in the black, let's go!" "Head up!" "Go, go, go, go, go, go!" "Hold." "Everyone, back!" "Oh, no." "Doctor, were you successful?" "We have a problem, sir." "We need time to convert Malastare fuel into more toxin, Chancellor." "I suggest you hurry, Doctor." "Evacuate the staff to the underground shelters." "Stay with General Kenobi." "I'm on my way." "Better hurry, sir." "You're missing all the fun." "PALPATINE ON VIEWCREEN:" "I have no doubt the Jedi to ensure the safety that I will not stand..." "It's coming this way!" "Perhaps now would be a good time to evacuate to the lower levels." "Yes." "We are going now." "Desperately needed the tanks are." "We're almost at the loading dock, Master Yoda." "Dire the situation has become." "Before more lives are lost, act quickly we must." "My security staff insisted on adding this emergency escape route." "Chancellor, I think we may have enough toxin now." "My guards will be with you shortly." "Hand the gas over to them immediately." "Does it have to be destroyed?" " The Jedi stun cannons..." " Will not eliminate the problem." "Our advanced technology simply cannot contain it." "I wish we had never brought the Beast here." "Pardon me, Mistress Padmé, but I believe something is following us." "Evasive action!" "We're doomed!" "All tanks acquire solution and prepare to fire on my order." "Hold your fire." "In the Beast's clutches the Chancellor is." "Anakin might be with him, and Senator Amidala." "If the Beast falls, at risk their lives shall be." "I've got an idea, but it's risky." "Considering the circumstances, I'll take the risk." "I've got a bad feeling about this." "Sir, looks like the General's up to something." "What is Skywalker doing?" "It appears to be one ofAnakin's improvised plans." "How can it be a plan if it's improvised?" "Not to worry." "Just catch them when they fall." "A lot of the General's plans involve falling." "Distract the Beast we shall, to give Skywalker more time." "I hope you know what you're doing." "Here's where the fun begins." "Hang on!" "Catch it!" "Ani!" "All pilots, fire." "Sir, we have to get you out of here." "Artoo, get over there!" "It can't carry both of us." "You go, sir." "Oh, no!" " We aren't having much of an effect!" " Time to leave, it is." "Oh, no!" "Let's go!" "Use the gas bombs!" "Copy that." "Bombs away!" "It's a tragedy that the Zillo Beast paid with its life for our mistakes." "I will make certain that sacrifice was not made in vain." "Doctor, a word if you please." "Your new orders." "What is this?" "You want me to clone the Beast?" "English" " SDH" "Calm before the storm!" "A rare and welcome respite from endless battle awaits Jedi Knights Anakin Skywalker and Mace Windu as they travel through deep space aboard the Jedi Cruiser Endurance." "Preparing to rendezvous with a Republic frigate, the Jedi remain unaware of a deadly peril lying hidden in their midst." "War does not come with a guarantee." "No soldier gets the promise of safety, survival, or victory." "But men, I guarantee you this:" "Every member of this Clone Youth Brigade will have his moment." "And it is that moment when you are no longer a cadet, you are a soldier." "There's the Jedi Cruiser." "You have the best training in the galaxy, but no one can train you for the moment you look death in the eyes." "What you do then, and the soldier you become, that is up to you." "Docking procedures begin shortly." "Until then, dismissed!" " Who's the new guy with the long hair?" " Some last-minute replacement." "Looks green to me." " Hey." "What outfit you from?" "322nd." " I heard they had their tour." " They did." "I..." "I couldn't make it." "Broken arm." "A real trooper could lose an arm, and still report for duty." "So what are you, soft?" " What's going on here, gentlemen?" " Just having a little fun." "Oh, I've seen your kind of fun, Hotshot." "Stand down." "Come on, Whip." "Air's getting stale around here." " Hey." "What's your name?" " I'm Lucky." " Jax." " Thanks, but I can handle myself." "Yeah, sure, but a trooper's only as strong as the trooper beside him." " We're all in it together, right?" " Right." "And with the training we got, I feel ready for anything." "Oh!" "Man!" "Don't be nervous." "Only thing between us and them is experience." "It's not like they're Jedi." "Morning, troops." "Welcome aboard the Jedi Cruiser Endurance." " I am Mace Windu." "And this is..." " Anakin Skywalker." "Welcome aboard." "Today, you'll see how a real, working Jedi Cruiser operates." "And you'll have the chance to serve right alongside two Jedi Knights." " Serious?" "No way!" " That's gonna be awesome!" "Jedi?" "Yeah!" "Can you believe it?" "Generals, new orders from General Kenobi await you in the War Room." "Immediately." "Another time, then." "Wow!" "The other guy's Anakin Skywalker." "No way!" "I heard he's the strongest Jedi." "This is going to be the best!" "You seem more disappointed than our cadets." " It's ourjob to instruct and inspire." " You just wanted to show off." "Hey, when I show off, it is instructive, and inspiring." "For you, maybe." "Looks easy, doesn't it?" "Well, looks can be deceiving." "There's nothing more dangerous in all of space than a moving target." " What do you use for targets, sir?" " Malfunctioning droids." "Mechanical skeet, packed with explosives." "Now, this is my ship, and my rules." "I do not allow tourists on board." "Only soldiers." "Now, time for target practice." "You, there." "Take the gun." " Not even close." "Next!" " But I only..." "Oh, no, you're done." "You only get one chance." "I promise you, the Separatists don't give more." "Next!" "Near-miss is still a miss, kid." "The Sergeant's right." "Training is no match for experience." "And it's the one thing none of you have." "I know that look." "Whoo-hoo!" "Yeah!" "I see why they call you "Lucky. "" "But let's see how you are when Seppies come at you in tri-attack formation." " Yeah!" " All right, all right, cut the chatter, men." "We're due on observation deck 13." "Fall out!" "Now that's a cadet to watch." "Cadet 1151, tell me where this Jedi Cruiser's main stabilizers are located." "Sir, hull 17, behind the main reactors, sir." "Good." "Cadet 1174, how many engines fail before auxiliary power kicks in?" "Sir, three on port and starboard sides, sir!" "Channel 7 open, ready to receive Code 5 transmission." " SING:" "Boba, is that you?" " It is." "I'm sending you the data now." "Received transmission." "Boba out." " Hey, what are you doing here?" " Uh, communiqué, sir, eyes only." "I've been dispatched to General Windu's quarters." " There's no problem, sir." " Oh, there's a problem." "You're lying." "Admit it." "You're lost." "Come on, cut the kid a break." "Windu's quarters are that way, shiny." "Yes, sir." "Thank you, sir." " Eyes on where you're headed, cadet." " Yes, sir." "Sorry, sir." "Cadet 327, what reaction propels the main engines of this Jedi Cruiser?" "Pulse combines sparking off the reactor core rods, sir." "Hmm." "Excellent." "Sir." "General Skywalker requests your presence on the bridge." "I'll be there shortly." "The General requests your presence immediately, sir." "No rest for the weary." "Put these inside my quarters, would you?" "Yes, sir." "Are you all right?" "Trooper!" "Trooper!" "This doesn't look like a drill." "No time for chatter." "There's been an explosion." "Let's show these troops how the Clone Youth Brigade rises to the challenge." "Line up!" "Two by!" "I don't want any heroes." "Ourjob's to get to the nearest safe room and let these troops do theirjob." "Now, move!" " Think it's a Seppie attack?" " Out here?" "Perfect place for it." "You heard the Sergeant!" "Secure the loose talk!" " Status report, trooper." " Ship's undamaged, one man down." "General Windu's quarters got hit but he survived." "Survived?" " You're lucky to be alive." "And our trooper?" " Dead." " This was no accident." " Agreed." "Keep moving!" "Ship's navigation is nearby." "Admiral, has the navigation been damaged?" "Hobbled, not destroyed." "Systems are repairable." "I've ordered shutdown of all engines until we're fully operational." "We'll hold orbit over Vanqor." " Any sign of attack ships?" " None, but we'll keep scanning." "Until we get navigation back, the Endurance is a fat and easy target." "I won't have it." "Kilian out." "If navigation wasn't the target, then hitting your quarters was intentional." "Watcher, this is Boba." "It's a miss." "Repeat, miss." "What should I do?" "SING:" "Head to the reactor." "Blow the core." "But the crew!" "It isn't about them, just Mace." "Ifyou want Windu dead, do as I say!" "We have a killer on board this ship and we are locked in dead space." "Just like our assassin." "We'll form an unbroken line of troopers and scour the ship from bow to stern, checking every corridor, bulkhead and storage unit." "I want him alive." "Hey, you there!" "Come here!" "I got lost, sir." " Ship's on full lockdown, son." " Yes, sir, I know, sir." "I just..." " I'll return to my company." " Not alone, you won't." "Emergency protocol's in effect." "Look, I'm calling a trooper to escort you out of here." "This is CT-1477, I need an escort for a cadet back to his group." " Is that a DC-15A?" " Yeah." "Here." "Keep the safety on." "Cooy that, CT-1477." "We're pretty overloaded with the emergency status, we'll get someone there as soon as possible." "What?" "What are you doing?" "We're brothers!" "Don't shoot!" " You're not my brother." " Don't shoot!" "Don't worry..." "CT-1477, report in." "CT-1477, why have you broken off transmission?" "Our sweep has now covered over half the ship, Admiral." "Still no sign of the assassin." "The more ground we cover, the less there is in which to hide." "Huh." "More action than you signed on for, eh, boys?" " We're headed for the safe room now, sir." " Fine, fine." "Although, on second thought, let's make a drill of it." "Head for the pods." "Escape pods?" "Things must be bad." " The escape pods, sir?" " Mmm." "I want to see what they're made of." "I'll even time you." "It'll all make a fine story when you return to your base." "This can't be happening." "Get a hold of yourself." "Prepare to launch the distress beacon." "We're going down." "Get your men out of here!" "There's nothing more you can do." "Artoo, prep the fighters, be ready to take off." " Lucky!" "Stay with the group!" " Yes, sir." " How are we gonna get through this?" " Groups of four, men." "Groups of four." "Take pods one and two." "Set rendezvous coordinates with the other pods, at a safe distance from the cruiser." "See you at rendezvous mark six." "This is the moment, men." "Make it yours." "The pod's malfunctioned!" "The main reactor's beyond hope." "You have to abandon ship." "No." "You must abandon ship." "I'm staying." " We missed the rendezvous!" " I can't stop it!" "I'm staying with the Admiral." "You better evacuate." "Admiral, you must abandon ship." " Not a chance." " But, sir, with respect, that's an order." "It may be your command, General, but it's my ship." "We don't have time for that kind of sentiment!" "It's not sentiment!" "An Admiral must go down with his ship." "I don't expect you to understand it, Jedi." "We're lost." "What happened?" "Do we still have control?" "Navigation's shot." "Looks like our pod was damaged in the escape." " Can we steer?" " No." " How about fuel?" " No feed." "We're dead weight." " So what do we do?" " Ourjobs." "Get ready to attach the hyperspace rings." "Admiral, what's your status?" "KILlAN:" "We're caught in Vanqor's gravitational pull." "We're going to try to set her down on the surface." "All right." "Once you're down, we'll get the rescue teams to your location." "General Skywalker, this is Sergeant Crasher." "Yes, Sergeant." "It's the cadets, sir." "I can't raise them on any channel, and their locator beacon's not active." "Theirs is the only pod unaccounted for." "Sounds like our saboteur may have gotten to the cadets." "We have to find that pod." " What was that?" " I don't know." "A ship, I think." " Rescue ship?" " It's too early." "What, then?" "Well, what do we have here?" "You boys look lost." "Congratulations, Boba." "Job well done." " His name's not Boba." "He's Lucky." " "Lucky"?" "That's a good one." "You're with her?" "I wasn't expecting you to bring friends along." "I couldn't help it, Aurra." "What are you going to do with them?" " What do you think?" " Let them go?" "They're living witnesses, honey." "That was never part of the plan!" "I just wanted to kill the Jedi that murdered my father." "Well, that will have to wait." "Grow up!" "You'll get your revenge in time." "Now get on board." "We have to get out of here." "Or, you can go with your friends, who I'm going to jettison into the unknown." "That would be poetic." "I'm sorry." "Traitor." "Do it!" "You'll regret this!" "I can't believe it." "A traitor?" "He was a traitor?" "Yes, well, we can't worry about that right now." "We have to find a way to contact somebody." "We already tried!" "This pod is dead!" " We only have minimal life support." " Yeah?" "Well, whose fault is that?" "None of us!" "That guy you defended left us for dead!" "Stow it, Whiplash!" "We need to work together." "You're not in charge here!" "They have come back to finish us off!" "No, wait!" "It's the Jedi!" "I found your missing cadets, Crasher." "Nice work General." "How are they?" "I can't raise them on the comm channel." "Their pod must have been damaged in the evacuation." "Head to point 038 and you can pick them up." "Right away, sir." "Skywalker, have you heard from Admiral Kilian?" "No, I lost contact when they entered the atmosphere." " Jax, I'm sorry." "I lost my head." "I didn't..." " It's okay, I understand." "I can't believe it was one of us, someone just like us." " He's nothing like us!" " Let's hope he is." "If he is like us, he'll realize he's wrong." "English" " SDH" "Revenge!" "Boba Fett, son of the notorious bounty hunter Jango Fett, infiltrated a Jedi cruiser in an attempt to assassinate General Mace Windu, the man who killed his father." "After a near miss at Windu's quarters," "Boba was forced to destroy the Jedi cruiser and escape with the help of notorious bounty hunter Aurra Sing." "Now, having lost contact with Admiral Kilian when his doomed starship crashed, the Jedi search for survivors with the aid of a Republic rescue ship." "General Windu, we're picking up the last of the survivors now." "It's critical to get them to a hospital station as soon as possible." "We'll contact you as soon as our search for Admiral Kilian is complete." "Let's go, Artoo." "We're coming up on the crash site." "Let's hope Admiral Kilian and the command crew are still in one piece." "Hmm." "Looks pretty bad, but the bridge seems to be intact." "Set down behind the cruiser, we'll approach on foot." "You're not kidding, little buddy." "I don't like the feel of this place either." "Your astromech is programmed to feel?" "Artoo is kind of a special case." "He's got a lot of personality, that's all." "You encourage it too much." "R8, start scanning the area for signs of life and calculate an entry point to the cruiser." "You're right, Artoo, it doesn't look good." " A bit jittery, isn't it?" " He must have seen something." "Come on, it looks like R8 has found an entry point." "There would have been a command crew left aboard to try and land this ship." "Admiral Kilian and then at least three navigational officers." "Commander Ponds stayed as well." "What did you find, little guy?" "Mace, over here!" "Hmm." "This man did not die in the crash, he was executed." "There's another one over here." "Same thing." "We know the assassins were after me." "Perhaps they returned to look for my body." "We need to get to the bridge to find Admiral Kilian." "Send the droids to scan for any survivors down here." "Maybe the killer missed one." "I know there's a lot of interference, but do your best." "Skywalker!" "They're dead." "Executed like the troopers below." "But I don't see Admiral Kilian or Commander Ponds." "They must have been sucked into space when the cabin lost pressure." "Captain, there's no sign of any life down here." "I'm afraid Admiral Kilian and Commander Ponds are lost." "Take the survivors back to the hospital station." "We'll meet you there." " Mace out." " Captain Silver out." "Head for home." "Light speed." "Is that a Mandalorian helmet?" "What is that doing here?" "Clone cadets." "Jango Fett." "Boba!" "Anakin!" "No!" "Drop it!" "Mace is dead." "Are you happy now?" "I want to make sure he's dead." "There's nothing left of Windu to find, Boba." "I want to get off this planet now." "This place is crawling with gundarks, and besides, we've got these hostages to drag along with us now." "This extra baggage will fetch us a hefty sum from the Separatists." "Well, it's a lot of trouble for not enough payout, if you ask me." "You haven't even done anything!" "I've taken all the risks." "Quiet, runt." "I wouldn't do that." "Count Dooku will pay us well if we bring back the Jedi's head." "Dooku might pay us for killing Windu." "Then we're looking at a profit." "Well..." "Now, relax." "Boba is right." "To get paid, we need proof of Windu's death, and if we killed Skywalker, we can ask for double." " Double?" " Yes, but we need proof." "Bossk, take care of our guests while we're gone." "ANAKIN:" "Artoo!" "Over here!" "Good to see you, buddy." "Careful, Artoo." "I'm afraid the whole bridge will collapse." "I need you to go back to the fighters and call the Temple for help, okay?" "Okay?" "Go get help." "We'll hold out as long as we can." "Go on, Artoo." "Go on." "Come on." "We've got to find Windu's body." "Careful, Boba." "Yeah, careful." "I'd hate to only split the money three ways." "Look out!" "This place is a death trap!" "When I hired you, I didn't realize that you were such a coward." "Well, I don't want to be next." " Blast!" " The door must have malfunctioned." "Skywalker?" "Skywalker, are you all right?" "Yeah, I'm okay." "Except I can't move." "Can you get free?" "I already tried that." "You'll bring the whole place down on us." "Well, how do we plan on getting ourselves out of this mess?" "Don't worry." "I already sent Artoo back to the fighters to call for help." "I'm sure he has everything under control." "Mmm." "I'm just saying, I didn't know there'd be all this climbing involved." "Shut up already." "It wasn't my idea for you to tag along anyway." "SING:" "The next one who says anything will get a blaster bolt through the brain." "But, Aurra..." "SING:" "Not one more word." "Incoming!" " ANAKIN:" "What was that?" " The ship is falling apart around us." "This is no good." "If we can barely survive in here, Windu must have been killed in the blast." "I'm not quitting now." "Not when I'm so close." "Look out!" "We're running out of time." "That's it." "We're out of here." "No one could survive this place." "A Jedi could." "I hate to agree with Castas, but there is a better way to do this." "But, Aurra..." "Bossk, fire up Slave I." "We're going to blast what's left of this ship to pieces." "I'll be ready when you arrive." " I hate just sitting here." " Calm yourself, Skywalker." "We'll soon see if the faith you put in that droid is worth it." "What was that?" "Scanners picked up an explosion near where the Jedi landed." " Windu." " Jam any communications off this planet." " The fighter's markings match Windu's." " I knew it!" "I told you he wasn't dead." "Bossk, after him." "I don't like the sound of that." "Artoo?" "I thought your astromech was supposed to call for help, not take off and leave us here." "Come on, Artoo, I'm counting on you." "Hold it steady." "We've knocked out his communications." "Two rings, mark three-five, they're powering up." "If we can take out the rings, he'll be trapped." " Which one?" " Destroy them both!" "We can't get range." "You'll get one shot at this, kid." "I've got you, Windu." "No!" "Well, there goes a fortune." "Nice work, kid." "What's our next move?" "Great!" "Well, this has gone well." "Windu will be back here with a fleet." "He'll hunt us down." "Don't count on it." "The Jedi don't carry grudges." "But I have ways of motivating him." "We'll make Windu come to us next time, on our terms." "Now, let's get out of here." "I want to regroup." "We shall reinforce our fleet along the Hydian Way, this should prevent Grievous from..." "Artoo?" "Stop it!" "Artoo, what's wrong?" " Ahsoka, you know this droid?" " It's Anakin's droid, R2-D2." "Well, then, Artoo, deliver the message you so obviously need to communicate." "I need you to go back to the fighters and call the Temple for help, okay?" "Okay?" "Prepare my ship." "We shall leave immediately." "Whose helmet is that anyway?" "It belongs to a bounty hunter I killed on Geonosis, by the name of Jango Fett." "You mean the clone template?" "Yes." "Strangely enough he had a son, or at least a clone he regarded as a son." "His name is Boba Fett." "I remember now." "Obi-Wan listed him in his report on Kamino." "Boba was on Geonosis when his father died." "He watched as I killed him." " That would complicate things." " Indeed." "Your astromech has been gone too long." "He must have failed to deliver your message." "Artoo will come through." "There!" "In the bridge, I can see them." "Ahsoka, hold the ship steady." "Comet!" "Let's go!" "Hurry, Commander Wolffe!" "Hold tight, General." "We're losing it, sir." "Jump!" "Cut the lines!" "Go!" "Some pretty serious burns, but nothing a night in the bacta tank won't fix." "Oh, sorry." "We were lucky to arrive when we did." "Guess we have Artoo to thank for that." "Come here, droid." "I can see why your master trusts you, little one." "Good job." "That's definitely more praise than I ever get." "Mmm." "English" " SDH" "Lethal trackdown!" "The young Boba Fett has taken the law into his own hands and made two attempts on the life of Mace Windu, the Jedi Master who killed his father." "Boba's mentor, bounty hunter Aurra Sing, has taken three Republic officers hostage in an effort to force Windu to face Boba on their terms." "A tactic that does not sit well with the young vigilante." "This isn't what I wanted." "You don't have to do this." "You're not like them." "I can tell." " What do you know, old man?" " I know a good soldier when I see one." "I'm no soldier!" "I'm no clone, not like those two!" " What?" "What are you looking at?" " Boba!" "What's going on?" "Nothing!" "What are we going to do with them?" "Oh, I think our friends here are about to finally prove useful." "So?" "What are you planning to do with this son of Jango Fett?" "I am not planning to do anything." "That kid destroyed an entire cruiser trying to get to you, and you're just going to let it go?" "Is there something else I should be doing, Skywalker?" "How about tracking him down?" "So I should behave as this child does?" "I should seek revenge?" "No." "How is it revenge if you stop this kid and bring him to justice?" "In case you hadn't noticed, we are fighting a war." "We have a situation." "We received a transmission from the bounty hunters." "They apparently took hostages." "Mace Windu, you were lucky to escape." "Your friends here were not so fortunate." "Until you face Boba, these men will be killed, one at a time." "What's your name?" "Name!" "CT 4-11." "Pathetic." "Boba, do it." "Boba!" "That was Ponds." "Only two to go, Windu." "Come and find us." "We'll be waiting." "I'll go." " I thought you had bigger concerns." "That was before we knew hostages were involved." "You are too injured to travel, and your presence would only aggravate the boy." "I shall go, and take Padawan Tano with me." "Next time I tell you to pull the trigger, you do it!" "It should only be a matter of time until they track us down." "Something on your mind, Castas?" "Yeah, I got something to say." "We're in over our heads." "You signed on to kill Jedi." "Well, this is how it's done." "You said the Separatists would pay well if we killed Windu." "That kid destroyed an entire cruiser, and now we're taking hostages." "That was not part of the plan." "I never took you for a coward, Castas." "And what about you, Bossk?" "You feel the same?" "I'm still in." "I got a lot riding on this kill, and I need the cash." "Not me." "I'm out." "Well then, you're in luck." "I was planning on making a stop." "You can drag your worthless carcass off of this ship when we land." " Where are we headed?" " We're going to visit an old friend." "Maybe he can replace Castas." "Set course for Florrum." "Master Plo, I don't understand." "Shouldn't we be heading for the last place we knew Boba Fett was spotted?" "Why head to the one place we know he is not?" "Whoa!" "The second bounty hunter in the hologram is Aurra Sing." "Another bounty hunter." " Like his father, Jango Fett." " Mmm." "Yes." "It seems this boy found himself in the care of at least one of Jango's associates." "So we're looking for friends of Jango Fett, or places where they hang out?" "And to do that, we must go to the lower levels." "The underworld." "AUTOMATED FEMALE VOICE:" "Move along." "Move along." "Move along." "Move along." "DROID:" "Yourpass, please." "Your pass, please." "Your pass, please." "Your pass, please." "Your pass, please." "The data on Jango Fett suggested he frequented this area." "We must be cautious." " Come on, punch him!" "Yeah!" "Get him!" " Punch his teeth out!" "Yeah!" "Oh, my dear, you never were good at asking for permission to land." "I never ask for permission to do anything, my darling." "Yes!" "Yes, I remember." "Not mine, I take it?" "No, part of my crew." "He's Jango's son." "Oh." "Yes, yes." "Sorry about your father." "He was a friend, and an honorable man." "And that's Castas." "But he's getting off here." "Couldn't handle her, could you?" "Well, don't be ashamed, you're not the first man to bail out from under her command." "He's speaking from experience." "Oh!" "Oh, you're a dangerous woman." "Yes, very dangerous." "Come, come, come!" "Let us go inside, where we can discuss business over a drink like civilized people." "I'm stuck out here on Florrum." "I warned you." "Working with Aurra Sing is bad business." "Yeah." "This job's gone south, like every job I do with that hag." "No, Boba." "I hear there's a downed Republic cruiser on Vanqor." " Your handiwork?" " I wouldn't take credit for that, no." "We saw it, though." "Crawling with Republic troops." "I wouldn't try and salvage it for a while if I were you." "I appreciate the advice." "So, Boba, what is it like working with Aurra?" "It's all right." "It must be..." "I have some information." "Information that's worth something to the right people." " Really?" "What kind of people?" " That's where you come in." "Remember, Aurra?" "That job we pulled?" "Hmm?" "Oh, yes." "Excuse me." " Castas!" " Huh?" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Someone scrape that guy off the floor." "He sprung a leak." "Well, I hope we have better luck here." "This is the fifth scum-bucket drinking hole we've been to." "Yes." "And this time, try to be more subtle." "What do you mean?" "You've adopted many of your master's ways, including a lack of subtlety." "Sorry, Master Plo." "Just try to blend in." "Listen." "You may be surprised what people reveal when they have been drinking." "Have a look around." " I need some information." " We're not selling that here, pal." "It's been a while since we had one of you down here." "Aren't you a bit busy with your war to be bothering with the likes of us?" "We are never too busy for the citizens of the Republic." "I'm not getting anywhere." "Okay, try to relax." "Like Master Plo says, I'm listening." "Listening..." "This war is killing me." "My whole business has gone under." "Oh." "Give me another round." "I saw her last night, on the video screen." "Whoa, whoa, whoa!" " I'm gonna ask her out." " She'll never go out with you." "She's gonna go out with me!" "Florrum?" "A buddy of mine was just murdered on Florrum." "Murder?" "Yeah, yeah, he was working a big job." "At least, that is what he said." "He was telling me he had some valuable information on a holotransmitter, and then, boom, she shot him." "It must have been some good dirt." "What's her name?" "Hope it's not who I think it is." "He was working with Aurra Sing." "She is bad news." "That's her, all right." "She's the boss's ex." "There's always trouble when she shows up." "Yeah, that's the one." "Find something interesting, kid?" "What's this?" "What are you reaching for?" " Stand down!" " You can't take us all, Jedi." "Would you like to try and prove your theory?" "Hey, nobody's shooting up my place today!" "He's right." " Drinks on the house." "Now wait a minute!" "Not very subtle." " I was being subtle." " Interesting result." "But, Master, you were right." "I heard about a murder." "A murder Aurra Sing recently committed." " Where?" " Florrum." "Well done, little Ahsoka." "We're off to Florrum." "Well, my dear, you are in an interesting predicament once again." "Getting involved with the Jedi is never a good idea." "Aurra, we've got an incoming ship." "Jedi, by the look of it." " Windu!" " Finally." "Took them long enough." "Move Slave I to the outskirts and get the hostages ready." "Right." "So, are you in or not?" "I will not help you." "But I will not hinder you, either." "This is your fight, not mine." "Hello, hello, and welcome to Florrum." "I should assume you are walking us into a trap." "Yes, you should." "They're waiting inside the bar." "I have no idea what she has planned for you." "And the reason you're telling us is?" "So you know that I am not involved in this." "Remember, patience." "Bad move, Jedi." "This will cost you." "I wanted Windu." "What are you doing here?" "We can do this the difficult way, or the simple way." "The choice is yours." " Bossk, can you hear me?" " Roger." "Execute the hostages if I give the word." "Unwise." "You have already lost, and you don't even know it." "I am prepared to kill you, the hostages, whatever it takes" " to get what Boba wants." "Sounds more like what you want." "Don't." "Aurra?" "Aurra!" "Bad news, boys." "If I don't hear from her soon, I'm gone, and you're both fried." " Let her go!" " No chance." "She won't do it, Boba." "She's not like you." " She's right." "I'm not a murderer." " I'm not a murderer!" " But I want justice." " We are justice." "Don't listen to them." "No one will be harmed if you come quietly." " I can't let you die." " You won't have to." "Aurra!" "It's over." "Surrender!" "Aurra!" "Now!" "Bomb!" "Boba, hurry!" "Aurra, help!" "Help me!" "Don't leave me!" "No!" "The hostages, where are they?" "Boba, if you do not tell us where those men are, they are going to die!" " Innocent men!" " She left me." "He will not reveal the location of the hostages." "I thought you might talk some sense into him." "Tell the Jedi what he wants to know, Boba." "Why should I help anybody?" "I've got no one!" "It is the honorable thing to do." "It's what your father would have wanted." "Ahsoka, she's trying to lead you away from the hostages." "Go to coordinates 1-5-7-9." "Time's up." "Don't move." "No!" "No!" "I see now I've done terrible things." "But you started when you murdered my father." " I'll never forgive you." " Mmm." "Well, you're going to have to." "Take him away." "English" " SDH"
