"There's only so much HoloNet I can take. or who we're meeting." "(CHOPPER GRUNTING)" "Senator Organa wants them and he's trusting us to get them fuel." "why is he keeping us in the dark?" "You know as much as I do." "No wonder Kanan volunteered for that supply run." "Heh." "Imperial Senator Mon Mothma of Chandrila has shocked the Senate with her treasonous remarks against Emperor Palpatine." "I name the Emperor himself for ordering the brutal attacks on the people of Ghorman." "Their peaceful world is one of countless systems helpless against his oppressive rule." "This massacre is proof that our self-appointed Emperor" "imposing his tyranny under the pretense of security." "We cannot allow this evil to stand." "Wow!" "Did she really say that about the Emperor?" "I'm surprised she's still breathing." "Lady's got guts." "(BEEPING)" "(HISSING)" "Maybe that's our contact." "scan." "(WHIRRING)" "(SPEAKING IMPERIAL)" "(CHOPPER GRUNTING)" "A probe?" "What's it doing way out here?" "Speaks Imperial." "That's bad." "Let's blast it before it spots us." "but hold your fire." "We don't want to attract attention if we can avoid it." "I'll power down so it can't scan us." "Chopper." "(CHOPPER GRUNTING) ZEB:" "Shush it." "(POWERS DOWN)" "Nobody make a move." "(SPEAKING IMPERIAL)" "I don't think it saw us." "I'll be convinced when it leaves." "(SPEAKING IMPERIAL)" "(BEEPING)" "That doesn't look like leaving." "It's headed right for us." "Must be scanning for life signs." "that's just great." "(CHUCKLES)" "We can't shoot it with the power down." "be ready." "Just say when." "(BEEPING)" "Move a bit closer." "Just a little bit closer." "(BEEPING)" "(SPEAKING IMPERIAL)" "(SPEAKING IMPERIAL)" "Now!" "(SPEAKING IMPERIAL) hit it before it transmits our location." "Thing's quick." "(CONTINUES FIRING)" "I can't get a clean shot."

"Gold Squadron." "Close call with an Imperial probe." "Were you detected?" "it called for reinforcements." "Begin fueling immediately." "We need to get out of here before the Empire arrives." "I presume." "Senatorial attache." "he leads Gold Squadron." "This is Ezra and Zeb and Chopper." "what're ya transporting'? your crew will not be allowed to board our vessel." "you're all welcome aboard ours." "Let's get to refueling." "(HISSING)" "Phoenix Squadron." "You have?" "Yeah. and Tarkin's Star Destroyer. guilty as charged. (CHUCKLES)" "You might think twice before you pull another stunt like that." "The Imperials have tightened security throughout the entire Outer Rim as a result." "You're making things harder for all of us." "we don't mind doing things the hard way." "Let's have this argument another time." "Your little encounter may have jeopardized this mission." "you mean the probe." "What did you expect us to do? as ordered." "This assignment is extremely sensitive." "maybe you should have given us a few more details instead of being so sensitive about your assignment." "(GRUNTING)" "(SCOFFS) Did your droid just insult us? but you didn't give us much information to go on. specifically. and desperately wanted by the Empire." "(ALARM BEEPING) We have incoming!" "we have enemy contact." "Imperial cruiser and fighters." "Move to intercept." "I'm on my way." "(LASERS FIRING)" "(ALL GROANING)" "(GROANS)" "Gold Two is down." "and then get on the guns." "What about our ship?" "We need all the firepower we can get." "You got anyone who can fly it?" "me." "He can do it." "Just remember what I taught you." "(POWERING UP)" "(LASERS FIRING)" "We need to detach from the transport or we're all going down." "jettison the fuel pod and get ready." "(GRUNTING)" "(LASERS FIRING)" "(CHOPPER GRUNTING)" "The hatch is jammed?" "We'll have to detach it manually." "Come on." "Form up a defensive perimeter."

"(LASERS FIRING) Ezra Bridger." "Captain Orrelios." "We saw your speech on the HoloNet." "You really let the Emperor have it." "MON MOTHMA:" "I only wish words had more of an impact." "let's forget this mission and get you back to Chandrila to a proper hiding place." "No hiding." "My presence at the meeting is not optional." "You mean the meeting?" "I trust them to get me there. uniting the various rebel cells across the galaxy." "My challenge to the Emperor was a call to stand against the Empire. all who answer it will see that they are not alone." "I must be there to meet them. but the Empire will be attempting to track any ship that tries to leave this system." "I know a way to sneak you out of the sector." "we'll get you to that meeting." "Give them the coordinates to Dantooine. but we thwarted their attempt to refuel." "A scan of the vessel before it was destroyed and only a small crew." "I suspect." "Senator Mothma?" "Her capture is a priority." "where is she now?" "Not where you'd expect." "Captain Syndulla will be creative in avoiding your blockades." "She will brave the unlikeliest path to transport her passenger out of the sector. a favorite of Outer Rim smugglers." "Through the nebula?" "Our capitol ships can't follow her." "Precisely." "So I've readied my new prototype and our best pilots to hunt down and capture this rogue Senator." "allow me the honor of silencing her." "Governor." "Take Admiral Konstantine to the far side of the nebula and wait there. you'll be in position to capture Senator Mon Mothma alive." "She could be our key to locating the true rebel fleet." "Grand Admiral. traveling through the stars." "You can always leave your problems far behind you." "Can't imagine you running from your problems. to preserve the rights of the people." "And we are grateful." "Little good it's done." "bit by bit. but I've begun to see that the fight cannot be won in the Senate." "The stakes are a bit higher out here on the front lines." "you're outgunned." "Life or death." "being on the run." "But if that's what it takes... this Rebellion is worth it." "(SHIPS WHIRRING)" "The Archeon Nebula." "There are stars forming in there."

"We might be able to lose him in the nebula." "(LASERS FIRING)" "GOLD LEADER:" "Stay on the Ghost tight." "HERA:" "And disable your proton torpedoes." "Why?" "They've been known to ignite the gas in clouds like these." "(LASERS FIRING)" "Those shields are too strong." "(BEEPING)" "(CLICKS BUTTON) (BEEPING SILENCES)" "He's got a lock on you!" "We lost Gold Five." "It's just us now." "(LASERS FIRING)" "They're too fast." "We can't outrun them." "Ain't over yet." "stay tight." "We're going in close to that forming star."

"(GRUNTING)" "(SHIP WHIRRING) and it seems Commander Skerris has dealt with their Y-wing escort in the nebula." "Hail the rebel ship." "(ON COMLINK) This is Governor Pryce." "You have been charged with treason against the Empire." "submit or be destroyed." "Very well." "(BEEPS)" "She'll never keep her word." "I know." "I'm stalling her while you figure out a plan." "(CHOPPER GRUNTING)" "I'll take what I can get." "Keep working." "Look out!" "He's on top of us." "(LASERS FIRING) he's coming around." "I'm bringing him right to you." "Be ready with that ion cannon." "He's too fast." "I'll never hit him." "Sure you will." "Just fire when I tell you." "(LASERS FIRING)" "Senator."

"And..." "Fire!" "you got him! but you bought us some time." "We've got to get out of here and find the Ghost." "GOLD LEADER:" "You take the lead." "(SHIPS WHIRRING)" "what's the plan?" "We're not going to be able to break free." "Senator." "I'm going to have to shut her down." "do you read me?" "Ezra?" "(SHIPS WHIRRING)" "I'm afraid I've got some bad news." "great." "two rebel fighters have exited the nebula and are moving to attack our flank." "shoot them down." "too late." "(LASERS FIRING)" "We're caught in a tractor beam." "Can you break us free?" "charge your ion cannon and arm your proton torpedoes." "Proton torpedoes?" "do not attack the Star Destroyers." "Fire at the nebula." "The nebula?" "Of course." "Remember what Hera said about firing torpedoes in the nebula?" "Phoenix Leader." "We're going in." "You think this will work?" "(BEEPING) We'll know in a minute." "be ready on the hyperdrive." "(CHOPPER GRUNTS)" "(SHIPS WHIRRING) (LASERS FIRING)" "(ALARM BLARING)" "We've lost the tractor beam." "We're free." "Make your jump now!" "that was some of the best fighting I've ever seen." "Gold Leader." "you can fly in my squadron any day." "We're coming up on the rendezvous point." "Senator." "Let's just hope someone's listening." "This is Senator Mon Mothma." "I've been called a traitor for speaking out a Senate manipulated by the sinister tactics of the Emperor." "I've watched the heavy hand" "stifling our freedoms in the name of ensuring our safety." "No longer." "I have no fear as I take new action." "For I am not alone." "we stand together as allies." "I hereby resign from the Senate to fight for you." "but from the front lines." "We will not rest until until we restore our Republic." "Are you with me?" "Look!" "They came." "Look how many there are. this is our rebellion."
