Star Wars: Visions – S03E01 – The Duel: Payback | Transcript

In this sequel to “The Duel,” the Grand Master, the leader of a breakaway Jedi sect known as the Crusaders, hunts down the Ronin, seeking revenge against the Sith renegade for inflicting injuries that left him a cyborg. While visiting a gambling hall built into two modified AT-AT walkers, the Ronin and his droid R5-D56 are attacked by several Yakuza troopers led by the Twi’lek Sith Aneé-san, who works for the Anzellan proprietor Que-Dama. Their duel is interrupted by the arrival of a fleet led by the Grand Master, who destroys the gambling hall. The Ronin and Aneé-san survive the duel with the Grand Master but are both wounded. After being rescued by Ewoks, the two enter a truce and join forces with Que-Dama and the Ewoks to lure the Crusaders into a trap. During the battle, the allies inflict heavy casualties on the Jedi Crusaders. Though the Grand Master gains the upper hand over the Ronin in a lightsaber duel, the cyborg is slain by Aneé-san. Following a farewell by Que-Dama, the Ronin and Aneé-san resume hostilities.

[enforcer] What do you think you’re doing, droid?

Get back here!

[in gruff voice] Polish it up real good.

I spent a fortune on this mobile gambling hall.

[Fzbol growls] Boss, it seems we have a troublemaker.

We do?

[Fzbol grunts] Anéesan, handle it.

Rough him up and earn your keep.

But no killing this time!

[trooper] Hey! Hey! You!

I said stop!

Thank you for the information.

Still late on my payment, though.

[QueDama wails]

[Crusader on comms] Congratulations on your well-served revenge.

A Jedi does not take revenge.

That aside, they could still be alive.

Ensure that they cannot leave the planet, if they are.

[in English] Where… am I?

[Anéesan] A bacta hot spring.

Those little fur balls have been taking good care of us.

[Ewoks speaking Ewokese]

Why didn’t you escape?

[Anéesan] Because until that machine man finishes you off, this planet is on lockdown.

[whirring] This whole place is his own personal hunting ground now.

According to the information QueDama and the others gathered, he’s obsessed with you.

[Ewok exclaims] And I do mean obsessed.

[groans] Carries quite the grudge against you, doesn’t he?

But that’s his weakness.

They haven’t made a move for some time now.

Repairs to your friend are taking a while, too.

[exclaims] Is R5 all right?

[Anéesan] He’s fine.

He’s getting treated at QueDama’s place.

Man’s good at what he does.

It looks like we have a temporary truce then.

[Anéesan] We have a plan to defeat them.

Are you in?

If you are, there are some things I’d like you to lend me for this operation.

[crystals chiming]

They want to bring you in alive.

Which means the machine man must want to take matters into his own hands.

You’re saying I should be the bait.

Is that it?

Now you’re catching on. [chuckles] What exactly is the connection between you and that machine man anyway?

[wind whooshing]

[Ewoks speaking Ewokese]

[in English] We’ve been expecting you, Master Ronin.

[QueDama] Since you’re the guy who trashed my gambling hall, I’m going to put you to work.

D16, take him to see the little guy.

[CZD16] Master R5D56 is right this way.

I sincerely doubt that the Crusaders would ever have imagined that we would all be on this island, recovering.

[gasps]

Master R5D56 has been upgraded by our boss QueDama, so that he may serve as the very heart of our interceptor system.

I will also note that the boss created this island as well as myself.

It looks like those damn Crusaders are getting more and more determined to find us.

[speaking Ewokese]

[CZD16 in English] Yes? Yes.

Boss, it would appear that the Ewoks have finished setting all their traps.

Then it’s time for payback.

[radio static]

[Crusader on comms] Grand Master, we’ve received an anonymous tip about the Sith’s location.

Sending coordinates.

They fell for it, the suckers. [chuckles] What do you want us to do?

Make yourselves conspicuous, and try not to die.

Simple, right?

It looks like we’re both the bait now.

[♪ Tense music playing]

[speaking in Ewokese, grunting]

Nice shot, little droid.

Focus your fire on the shield generator at the top of the island.

Go. The Ronin must be taken alive.

Do not kill him, even in error.

Could be a good way to shake off the rust.

You stay there and watch.

You dare return despite your first defeat.

You Sith never learn!

[QueDama] R5, bring the shields back up.

D16, you’d better go and look after our little droid.

[CZD16] Yes, sir. Right away.

I think that it’s about time we go ready ourselves.

Let’s go, you lot!

Got it, boss.

[lightsabers crackling]

[lightsaber activates]

[R5D56 beeps] Master R5D56.

I have arrived to help, and I am worth a hundred droids.

Now, where might I find that shield generator?

[Crusader groans]

[The Grand Master grunting]

[Anéesan gasps] That’s three of those loathsome red sabers you’ve lost.

How many more remain?

Thus, the Sith and dark side must be eliminated.

[yells] Or they must fully be brought to justice!

[Ronin groans]

[groans]

[groans]

[groans]

It’s clear you have lost your way, former Jedi.

There is no balance without the light and the dark.

The judgment that you are so obsessed with is nothing more than the denial of the other side.

You’re closer to the darkness than we are.

That’s generous of you.

Stop by next time you’re in…

Huh?

Isn’t that your former client in there, working for someone else now?

[in Rodian] This is worth more than your friend there.

Besides, it’s a “dead or alive” deal with this guy.

[QueDama in English] Really? [scoffs]

You never change, you sly dog.

Hmm? What’s the matter?

I’m gonna need those crystals back.

Oh, these? Can’t I just borrow them for a while?

Star Wars: Visions – S03E02 – The Song of Four Wings | Transcript

Princess Crane and her astromech droid R9-TR2 (“Tor-Tu”) are survivors of a lost kingdom that was destroyed by the Empire. They join rebel forces led by the Mon Calamari Admiral Basil Kiucee, who operate on the snowy world of Joetz. During a routine patrol, Crane and “Tor-Tu” stumble upon a village that was attacked and its inhabitants massacred by Imperial snowtroopers. They rescue a Gigoran child named Woopas. After escaping snowtroopers, Crane and Tor-Tu attack a modified Imperial sandcrawler, that was mining the planet for coaxium, and its AT-AT escorts. During the skirmish, Tor-Tu transforms into an X-wing mech unit but his cannon malfunctions. Woopas uses the Force to reconnect the cannon. Following the battle, Crane deduces that Woopas is Force-sensitive after seeing him levitate an origami crane.

[♪ Theme music plays]

[lightsaber activates]

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…

The Empire has landed near the pole of snowy planet Joetz, putting a Rebel base in danger.

As the Rebels hurriedly begin preparing to evacuate, the troop’s most eager warrior sets out on reconnaissance to investigate the enemy’s movements…

[wind blowing]

[speeder whooshing]

[beeping]

[♪ Funky electronic music playing]

Made it to the coastline.

[R9TR2 beeps approvingly]

No music while you’re doing recon.

And you should slow down.

Your engines are far too loud.

Okay. Tor-Tu?

[beeping]

Remember, Princess, if you sense any danger, retreat.

Enough with the “Princess.”

The kingdom’s gone now. Forget it.

We’re better off if we can leave the past behind us.

Hmm.

In that case, maybe you should upgrade your droid and get rid of that old royal relic.

Hmph.

[R9TR2 beeps disapprovingly] Easy, Tor-Tu.

Nobody could make me trade you in.

That droid is one of a kind, you know?

The only astromech that can play my music.

They just don’t make ’em like that anymore.

Besides, I’ve had him since I was a kid.

[gasps, grunting]

[panting]

[♪ Funky electronic music continuing]

[whirring]

That village.

It must have been destroyed by the Empire.

They have to be close.

It didn’t happen long ago.

[Admiral Kiucee] Understood.

We’ll plan to retreat.

Get back here as soon as you can, Princess.

[R9TR2 whistles, beeps]

Are you sure?

What’s that?

Tor-Tu’s picking up a reading from inside the ruins of the village.

There could be survivors.

I’m going in.

It’s too dangerous.

And you can’t trust that piece of junk’s old sensors.

I must insist you return…

My name is Crane, and that’s Tor-Tu.

[beeping excitedly]

What about you? Do you have a name?

[sighs]

Woopas.

[exclaims]

Hello, Woopas.

Nice to meet you.

[grunts]

Something scary happened around here, didn’t it?

But, hey, somehow you survived.

You know what that means?

It means there must be a reason you’re still alive.

Why don’t you come with me.

[chuckles softly]

What would they be digging for out here?

[Crane] Oh?

[gasps]

This is no small excavation project.

Admiral, do you read me?

[digital beeping]

Princess. There you are.

Are you all right?

Tell me you didn’t do anything reckless.

I secured a survivor from the village the Empire destroyed, and I found something.

I figured out why they came to this planet in the first place.

They’re mining coaxium veins.

[Admiral Kiucee] Coaxium?

[Crane] Turns out there’s a reserve right underneath the pole.

They had no idea about our base.

They’re here because they wanted the hyper-fuel supply.

[beeps]

Huh? I don’t see anything.

I don’t want to leave you, Mom.

We’re the only ones left here. Go.

You have to live, and grow up to become who you’re meant to be.

He’s one tough kid.

He’ll grow up to be even stronger.

If you believe it, it must be true, Princess.

[Crane chuckles]

We may have had to give up our base on Joetz, but thanks to you, the Empire lost a major source of hyper-fuel.

Hm.

That’s quite the military achievement.

Well, I almost didn’t pull it off.

My laser cannon was malfunctioning.

They’d have had us if it hadn’t fixed itself.

Star Wars: Visions – S03E03 – The Ninth Jedi: Child of Hope | Transcript

Following the events of “The Ninth Jedi,” Lah Kara and her Jedi allies Ethan, Margrave Juro, Homen and the droid 99-99 embark on a mission to find Kara’s kidnapped father Lah Zhima. While being pursued by the bounty hunters Anda and Unda, Kara is separated from the others after the Jedi ship is hit by a laser blast. Sucked into space, Kara is rescued by the service droid Teto, whose master’s starship was stranded centuries ago in a remote asteroid field. Kara helps Teto to reach his late master, who perished centuries earlier. Out of gratitude to Kara, Teto offers his services to her. When Anda and Unda board the starship, Kara and Teto join forces to fight the hunters and their grunts. Outmatched by the hunters, Teto jettisons Kara in an escape pod and sacrifices himself by detonating his late master’s starship, taking out the bounty hunters. Kara is rescued by her Jedi comrades, with Juro deducing that the mysterious Nawaan was behind the bandits who kidnapped Kara’s father. Kara mourns for her fallen droid friend Teto.

[Zhima grunting] Kara!

[groans] Run!

[groans]

[Kara] Father…

[♪ adventurous music playing]

[mechanical clicking]

[droid] What’s that?

Hmm.

[whirs, beeping]

Wow!

[♪ Amusing music playing]

[♪ Pensive music playing]

[droid] It’s… a girl.

[metallic footsteps]

Huh?

You’re finally awake!

[screams]

[Kara grunts] [groans]

[Kara panting]

Hello? Wait!

[exclaiming in fear]

[panting]

[metallic footsteps echoing]

[whimpering]

[mechanical whirring]

[blaster fires]

[gasps]

[gasps]

[blasters firing]

[grunting]

[lightsaber activates]

[grunting]

[lightsaber crackling]

[lightsaber buzzing]

[droid chirping]

[panting]

[metallic footsteps]

Huh?

I am a service droid named Teto, and I beg you, please help Teto’s master.

[Kara] Huh?

Hurry. Please, come this way, great Jedi.

[Kara exclaiming]

Huh? Wait a sec!

I beg you, please help Teto’s master.

Look, you need to calm down first.

[grunts] Okay, now tell me what happened.

Oh. Okay. Well…

Teto and Teto’s master escaped in this vessel to get away from the war that was taking place on Kaamui.

[♪ Somber music playing]

But, along the way, we were attacked, and then we lost control of the ship.

And then, after that, Teto’s master got very sick.

And now, he’s sleeping in the bacta tank to slow the progression of his illness.

Kaamui?

I remember it from my history lessons, but that war must have been at least hundreds of years ago.

[Teto] A very long time indeed has passed.

Bandits have come to raid the ship for materials many times.

Teto and Teto’s droid friends fought as hard as we could, but in the end, the ship was destroyed, and now Teto is the only one remaining.

That statue got knocked over in the fight.

And ever since then, the area where Master is sleeping in the bacta tank has been completely blocked off.

Teto hasn’t seen Master since the statue toppled.

So Teto is very worried about him.

Teto can’t do anything.

Just… wait and wait and wait for help.

It’s okay.

I’m here to help you now.

[gasps] Thank you very much, great Jedi.

[explosion]

[Ethan] Good job, Four-Nines.

That should do it.

Come back inside.

[9999 chirping]

[sighs]

We shouldn’t have to worry about being followed.

The tracking device has been destroyed.

Good. We’ll return as soon as the shields are back up.

We have to rescue Kara.

Do you think she’ll be safe out there?

[Juro] Don’t worry.

The Force is strong with her, even in this moment.

If that’s so, might she be more powerful than you?

She may well be.

Even if that’s true, she has yet to learn how to control it or herself.

That is why it is up to us to help guide her.

So that she won’t fall into the hands of the dark side.

[sighs]

I’ll be sure to finish those repairs.

[grunts]

Be strong, Kara.

You must believe in yourself.

[Kara grunting] One more push, as hard as you can.

Okay.

[grunting] Heaveho!

Heaveho!

[both exclaim]

[groans, gasping]

Teto, are you all right?

[Teto chirping]

Yes.

I’m sorry. I asked too much of you.

[Kara sighing]

You just need to believe in yourself.

If you trust, then I know the Force will surely answer.

Father.

[Teto] Hmm?

[grunts]

Come on.

[rumbling]

[♪ Sweeping music playing]

[rumbling]

Amazing!

[grunting] Please!

[grunting]

[crashes]

Great… Jedi!

[groans] Teto, now you’ll be able to see your master again.

[metallic footsteps echoing]

Oh! There you are, Master!

[♪ Mysterious music playing]

How long has Teto been waiting for this day to come.

To finally get to see you again, Master.

Teto is so very happy.

Huh?

[Teto] Master always said that the Jedi are the ones who will save the galaxy.

The ones who bring hope to the galaxy.

[rapid beeping] Master always said so to Teto.

And it was true!

[Kara] Teto…

Yes?

I’m not actually a Jedi.

Huh?

What are you talking about?

You’re Teto’s great Jedi.

You saved Teto’s master.

I’m really sorry, but we were too late.

The life support failed many years ago.

[Teto] Oh.

Oh, no!

My name is Kara.

I’m on a journey, with my friends, looking for my father who was taken.

Thank you, Kara.

Huh?

Thanks to you, Kara, Teto was able to see Teto’s master again.

[♪ gentle music playing]

Teto…

And now it is Teto’s turn to help Kara.

Teto will bring you back to your friends, no matter what.

[Kara chuckles]

[whispers] Thank you.

[Teto chirping, sighs]

[stomach grumbling]

[gasps]

[groans]

[Teto exclaims]

[BeeToh] Is Kara hungry?

Teto will cook for you.

[liquid boiling]

[metal clinking]

[♪ Serene music playing]

Mm! It is ready!

Looks delicious!

[grunting]

[chirping]

It’s great!

[exclaims]

[♪ Somber music playing]

[Teto] Master used to always compliment Teto as well.

Kara, there is one thing Teto still does not understand.

What is it?

[Teto] Why do people need to fight wars?

[sighs]

My father used to say, the galaxy is engulfed in fear and anger right now.

At least that’s what I remember him saying when I was little.

He would also say, that’s why no matter what happens, we must lend a helping hand to anybody in need.

As long as we do that, then we will be taking those first steps to guide the galaxy towards the path of good.

[Teto] Your father sounds like a truly wonderful person.

Kara, please become a great Jedi.

Then you can bring peace to the galaxy.

Is something wrong?

I don’t have what it takes.

When they came to capture my father, I couldn’t do anything except run away.

I was too weak to save him.

[Teto] Only someone who is truly strong has the ability to reveal their weakness to others.

This is a lesson that Master once taught Teto.

Kara knows she is weaker right now, but she can become strong.

And isn’t understanding that important to becoming a Jedi?

You know what? You’re right.

Okay.

I am going to get stronger.

That’s a promise, Teto!

[exclaims] Yes!

It looks like the ship is currently stuck in an asteroid field.

[Teto] Exactly. It’s a long way from any civilian transport routes.

Hardly any star ships ever come by here.

[warbles]

So, there is no one to call to for help. [sighs] Teto has been trying to figure out a solution to this problem.

Well, if we had a sign that’s detectable from far away, maybe then someone will notice.

Hmm. A sign?

[rumbling]

[both gasp]

Something must have just hit the ship!

[Kara, Teto in unison] Let’s go see.

[♪ Suspenseful music playing]

[Teto] Does that ship belong to Kara’s friends?

It doesn’t.

But I have seen that craft before.

It attacked our ship.

[Teto gasps]

[Teto] They are bad guys?

[Anda] The scan confirms it.

Signs of life are coming from here.

[static, beeping]

[Unda] Hmm. A bounty of 100 million credits for one lone Jedi?

[Anda] Nawaam is vehement.

He is committed to exterminating the Jedi.

[Unda] He is insufferable.

But I’m not turnin’ down that bounty.

[Anda] Take the Jedi alive.

Once captured, we’ll use them to lure out the others.

[subordinates] Roger.

[rapid footsteps]

[Teto] They’re looking for a Jedi?

Could they be looking for you, Kara?

I recognize them.

They look like the people who took my father.

[Teto] Huh?

Teto won’t let anyone do anything bad to Kara.

Don’t worry, Teto will fight for you.

I am grateful… Teto.

[Teto chirping]

Hey! I’m right over here.

[subordinate] There she is!

[♪ Tense music playing]

[subordinate 2] Hands up!

And don’t move.

[clicks]

[blasters firing]

[groans]

[Teto grunts]

[groans]

[Teto exclaims] We did it!

[both laughing]

[electricity crackling]

[gasps]

[Teto] Oh, no.

[Anda] It’s pointless to resist.

Come with us.

Tell me where my father is!

[Unda] Who is she talking about?

[Anda] I think she’s referring to the man that BeeToh captured.

This must be his daughter.

I knew I was right.

You’re the ones who kidnapped my father!

[Teto grunting]

Give him back to me!

[Unda grunts] Stay out of this.

I’ll take care of her.

[Kara] Teto, stay back.

[Teto] Huh? No.

Teto will fight too.

[gasps]

[shouts]

[flashes]

[groans]

[Teto] Kara, above you.

[gasps] [grunting]

[♪ tense music playing]

[lightsaber buzzing]

[grunting]

Oh, this is bad. Teto must help.

[Anda] We’ll take her down together.

[gasps]

[crackling]

[Kara grunting]

[groans]

Kara! Huh?

[groaning]

[Anda] It’s over.

[Teto yelling]

[crackles]

No! Teto!

[electricity crackling]

Close your eyes! [grunts]

[gasps]

[flashes]

[Anda and Unda groan]

[Anda] Damn it!

Where did they go?

[Unda] Let’s split up and search.

Teto, you okay?

Teto is a droid. No problem.

[sighs]

But never mind that. Come with Teto.

Teto has a good idea.

[Kara panting]

Teto, where are we going?

[Teto] Just hurry!

[Teto] Help me… move this.

[both grunting]

[Kara panting]

Get inside this, Kara.

[Kara] Okay.

[Kara yelps]

[thud echoes]

[hatch creaking, clanks]

[gasps]

[Teto] Huh? [gasps]

This escape pod is still functional.

All it needs is my energy to work.

What’re you talking about?

You can’t do this.

Teto will save Kara, no matter what it takes.

Teto! Open this hatch right now!

[grunts]

[♪ Emotional music playing]

[Teto] Kara, find your father, no matter what.

[grunting, gasps]

[whimpering]

[Teto] May the Force be with you.

Come back!

Teto.

Teto!

Teto!

[grunts. gasps]

[Unda] The target may have gotten away in an escape pod.

Search the surrounding area.

[Anda] Leave it to me.

[whirring]

[automated voice]

Self-destruct systems activated.

Please evacuate immediately. Repeat…

Master, Teto will save the great Jedi.

[automated voice] Passengers, immediately evacuate via escape pods.

This is the final warning.

[Teto] Kara… you will become the galaxy’s ray of hope.

Teto believes in you.

[powers down]

[beeps]

[silence]

[whooshes]

[explosion echoes]

[static]

[Ethan over comms] Kara?

Kara? Kara, are you okay?

[whooshing]

[Juro] Bounty hunters who hunt Jedi.

That’s right.

You fought the bounty hunters by yourself?

But how?

Teto was the one who rescued me.

Teto?

[whimpers]

[♪ Emotional music playing]

We’ll talk later.

I think it’s best that you get some rest.

[Kara] Yeah.

[Homen] Margrave Juro.

I know. I have no doubt it’s him.

It has to be Nawaam.

And this confirms that he knows what we’re doing.

[9999 chirping] Huh?

[9999 chirping]

[Kara sobbing]

I must trust in the Force.

I will become a great Jedi.

And I will find my father no matter what!

Star Wars: Visions – S03E04 – The Bounty Hunters | Transcript

The orphan girl Sevn was raised by the assassin group known as Basham. However, she left the group after a Jedi spared her lift and convinced her to put her talents to good. Sevn travels with the modified assassin droid IV-4A on the starship Sand Bird, plying a living as bounty hunters. After escaping several Basham assassins, the duo are hired by the seemingly benevolent industrialist Jin-Sim Canbelon to hunt a group of insurgents. The two bounty hunters quickly discover that the insurgents are seeking to free their enslaved siblings. Sevn helps the insurgents but IV-4A angrily leaves due to his resentment at Sevn delaying the removal of his assassin programming. Sevn fights Jin-Sim, who dons a droideka mech unit. IV-4A experiences a change of heart after discovering that Sevn was seeking help to remove his assassin programming. Together the two defeat Jin-Sim and help the insurgents free the enslaved child workers. Together, Sevn and IV-4A resume their adventures.

[Sevn groaning]

[lightsaber crackling]

[man groaning]

[footsteps echoing]

[gasps, grunts]

[Force warbles]

[gasps]

[gasps]

[grunts]

[alarm blaring]

[gasps]

[Sevn] Agents from Basham?

[IVA4] Affirmative.

Who else were you expecting?

[Sevn] Anyone but them.

I don’t know, the Hutts or maybe that Rodian gang.

Any second-rate hunter would do.

Just not them.

[IVA4] Do not forget the smugglers from Tatooine.

[IVA4] Conclusion, effort-to-reward ratio insufficient.

[Sevn sighs] The reward was more than enough.

It’s just that we blew it all on your maintenance!

[IVA4] Negative.

It is entirely your fault for installing that assassin protocol.

[Sevn grunts] Yeah, yeah, come on!

I said I was sorry and that I’d fix you someday.

Now, would you give ’em the usual, IVA4?

[IVA4] Roger.

[whirring]

[♪ adventurous music playing]

[blares]

[Assassin IVA4] Whoaho!

Yeah!

[Sevn] Whoo-hoo!

[scoffs] If it weren’t for me, you’d have been frozen in carbonite a long time ago.

Do you want me to leave you with a split personality?

Hell, no! You’re the one who installed an assassin protocol into a medical droid.

That’s why my circuits are so fried.

[rumbles]

[Sevn, IVA4 groan]

Damn! They don’t know when to give up.

[Assassin IVA4] This isn’t their fault, it’s yours.

[grunts] I told you!

This is all because that Jedi stepped in and ruined everything.

It’s all her fault I got labeled a traitor.

[rumbles]

[both groaning]

Not good. They’ve breached our shields.

[alarm blaring]

[grunts] Can’t shake them.

We gotta make the jump out of here.

[laser cannons firing]

Blast them with a seismic charge.

[Assassin IVA4] What’s the offset?

[Sevn] Dealer’s choice!

You got it!

[system trills] B-B-B-B-Boom!

[laser cannons firing]

[beeps]

[whooshes]

[explosion]

[Sevn grunts]

That thing was so expensive!

[whooshes]

How’s it looking, IVA4?

[IVA4] Unable to repair the power connector and capacitor.

Plus, the entire ship has sustained moderate damage.

Overhaul recommended.

[Sevn sighs] Just add it to the pile of expenses.

Looks like Genya’s the closest port.

Let’s go find the guild. Gotta make enough credits to patch this thing up.

[electricity crackling]

[warbling]

[groans] It’s a tractor beam.

Controls inoperable.

Assumption, Basham agents.

How could they predict we’d be here?

Dank farrik!

[Sevn grunts]

[droid] Miss Sevn and IVA4, if I’m not mistaken.

I am here on behalf of JinSim, the head of the resource development company, Zonus Corp.

This way, please.

[Sevn] Hmm?

[elevator chimes]

[elevator doors click]

[♪ Pleasant violin music playing]

Apologies for the rough treatment.

My name is JinSim.

Please, sit.

Tea?

[droid] Certainly, sir.

To be perfectly honest, I have a job that I could use a skilled Basham member like you on it.

That was the reason I invited you.

[Sevn scoffs]

Do you think I’ll let things slide just because you’re the head of some corporation?

Also, I’m not part of Basham anymore.

Oh, I’m aware of that.

Originally from Mita, you were orphaned during the war.

Taken in by Basham and trained as a soldier.

Then became one of their best, skilled in both combat and subversion.

At a young age, you were given the number Sevn, but later betrayed Basham and defected.

Seems someone’s done their research.

In business, nothing’s more valuable than information.

Will you listen to my request?

Please present the details and compensation.

[JinSim] Of course.

[device chimes]

What I’m pulling up right now is a file of the leader of an insurgent group that attacked our mines.

I’d like you to take that group out.

That said, I want their members alive to give them a chance to reform their ways.

[Sevn] How very noble of you.

But what’s it worth to us?

[JinSim] Well, as an advance, I am prepared to have your ship overhauled free of charge, and then, upon completion, you’ll receive an additional 150,000 credits.

Furthermore, I would like you to consider accepting a position as commanding officer in my defense force.

[Sevn] At your company?

[JinSim] My organization is often targeted by parties opposed to resource development.

You, on the other hand, are clearly on the run from Basham’s grip.

You’d be able to reinvent yourself here, and I can personally guarantee your safety.

How does a weekly salary of 7,000 credits sound?

Doesn’t sound too bad.

Let me think about it.

[elevator doors click]

[Sevn grunts]

[IVA4] Premium Deluxe D90 oil.

Conclusion, you know much about droids.

[Sevn sighs]

From excavation to management, our company would be nothing if it weren’t for droids.

[chuckles softly]

Actually, in addition to resource extraction, our company also takes in war orphans.

We offer them employment for which they are paid.

That collar is a device that monitors their health.

[sighs] Wow, your generosity knows no bounds.

[groans] Bitter.

Here’s all the intel you’ll need.

And I’ve secured escort speeders for you.

I wish you luck.

[Sevn sighs]

[droid] This area is where our employees work.

They separate the rare metals from the excavated minerals.

People are far more skilled at this type of work than droids.

[sighs]

[IVA4] Last known location, Mount Jobin.

Search difficulty, rank B.

Time required, several days.

[sighs] [IVA4] New topic. Regarding job offer.

Acceptance recommended.

Reason. High probability that Zonus could remove my assassin protocol.

[Sevn sighs] I guess so.

[IVA4] Question.

Why are you in such a daze?

[Sevn] No reason.

[IVA4] Negative. Deception detected.

Repeat question. Why are you in such a…

[Sevn] Would you just… You’re not programmed for psychoanalysis.

[IVA4] Affirmative.

[Sevn sighs]

[♪ Mysterious music playing]

[Eno] I’m coming for you.

[device beeps]

[male crew] Eno, let’s go.

[Eno] We’re gonna get them back.

All of them.

[all grunting in agreement]

[explosion]

[crew exclaims]

[Assassin IVA4 grunting]

[groans]

[Eno gasps]

[Sevn] Just cooperate.

[Eno grunts]

[IVA4] Analysis. Severe abrasions.

Possible fractures. Internal bleeding.

Two weeks recovery. Rest recommended.

[both groan]

[chains clink]

[Sevn] That should wrap it up.

Okay, time to head out.

Hold on!

You were hired as bounty hunters, right?

I’m begging you.

Just hear me out for one minute.

No, I’m not gonna do that.

Nothing good ever comes from listening to what a target has to say.

I know your client is JinSim.

He told you we were insurgents and that we had to be brought back alive, didn’t he?

He has been deceiving you.

[IVA4] Warning. Listening to the target is highly dangerous.

[Sevn] Recommend that you cease at once.

[Sevn] I’ll give you 30 seconds.

[IVA4] Repeat warning.

Listening to the target is…

Ah, it’ll be fine.

I had my own reservations about that handsome scoundrel anyway.

[IVA4] Understood.

[Sevn sighs] [Eno] To the public, JinSim may claim to be a philanthropist who takes in war orphans, but the truth is he puts them to work as slaves.

We were all abducted, too, but we escaped.

All we want is to free our brothers and sisters.

[Sevn] I figured it was something like that.

He wants us brought back alive so he could make us all his again.

And he wants to capture me and my sister to be a set in his collection.

[Eno gasps]

[Eno sighs]

[Sevn gasps]

[Sevn sighs]

Even if it’s true, I can’t just let you go.

He lures people with credits to control them.

Are you just gonna let him do that to you?

He’ll end up owning you, just like the others…

[Sevn] That’s enough.

We’re done talking. Now move!

[Eno] Let me go! Don’t touch me!

[Eno gasps]

[beams]

Happy birthday, Karin!

[young Karin giggles]

[father] Oh! And here’s that star fighter you wanted.

[gasps] [stutters] Wow, this is great!

And here’s my gift.

It’s the same as mine.

Now we’ll always be together.

Thanks!

[mother gasps] I love you so much.

[father laughs]

[mother laughs]

[sighs]

[sighs]

[IVA4] Question. What is wrong?

Recommend proceeding with our task.

Repeat question…

Shut up for a second!

[Assassin IVA4]

Are you kidding?

Sevn, don’t tell me you actually believe this emotional manipulation.

Once we get paid and are under the company’s employ, we’ll be set for life.

[grunts] I know that!

Do you? First off, how many times have you said you were gonna fix me and not followed through?

That place might actually do it.

Let’s hurry up and bring them in.

Sevn!

[Assassin IVA4 shouting]

[Sevn gasps]

[crew grunting]

[Assassin IVA4] Goodbye, Sevn.

I’ll be taking the Sand Bird as payment.

[Sevn gasps] IVA4!

[wind whooshing]

[♪ Serene music playing]

[whirring]

[chimes]

[trills, chimes]

Hey there, Sevn.

Uh, just finally getting back to you about that assassin protocol.

Looks like it might be tech developed by the assassin group, Winger.

They might know how to uninstall it.

Beats me why you’d wanna spend a fortune on some droid.

Hm. Wire the credits over when you can.

[elevator chimes, doors click]

That’s a former Basham member for you.

You work fast.

[whirring]

There’s the rest of your reward.

[Sevn] This is more than we agreed to.

I appreciate those who work quickly.

Now my company can continue its business in peace.

Would that be its slave business?

[scoffs]

[laughs] Merely a vile rumor.

Surely you don’t believe some conspiracy theory?

[Sevn] Why don’t we call one of them over, like that girl who brought us the bitter tea?

We can ask her if she’s here because she wants to be.

[JinSim] I do apologize.

But for security reasons, employees are not permitted to interact with outside parties.

Now, if you’ll excuse me.

[Sevn] Hmm?

I guess we’ll have to be more forceful with my request.

[beeps] [clinking]

[crew grunting]

[grunting]

[electricity crackling]

[grunts]

You guys, go free the children now!

You take advantage of the weak.

That makes me sick to my stomach.

I could say the same about bounty hunters.

[beeps, trills]

[whirring]

[clangs]

[whirring, clicking]

[grunts]

[grunts]

[Sevn grunts]

After all the trouble of giving you an honest contract, this is how you return my goodwill?

[soldier groans]

[Sevn grunts]

Dank farrik!

[grunts]

[beeps, explodes]

[grunts]

Yes! Got him.

[blaster cannons firing]

[gasps]

[groaning]

It’s futile.

Even a Jedi wouldn’t be able to break through a droideka shield that easily!

[Sevn scoffs]

[trills]

[gasps]

No, no. No!

[grunts] Great.

[yelps]

[panting]

[♪ Dramatic choral music playing]

[Sevn gasps]

[growls]

Circumstance has robbed you of your parents.

Leave this wicked place and use your skills to do the right thing moving forward.

That is something you can surely do.

[collar trills]

[collar clatters]

Be free and may the Force be with you.

[♪ Dramatic choral music fades]

[gasps]

[groans]

[sighs]

What does doing the right thing even mean?

Damn it. I wouldn’t be caught in this mess if it weren’t for you.

[JinSim] Found you!

[gasps]

[panting]

[clanks]

[Sevn grunts]

[groans]

[JinSim] That’s right.

[grunts] That droid partner of yours took off with your gunship.

[laughs] Droids sure are reliable, aren’t they?

[rumbling]

[yelps]

[laser cannons firing]

[Sevn gasps]

[JinSim grunting loudly]

[Assassin IVA4] Whoohoo!

I’ll turn you into scraps.

[JinSim shouting]

[Sevn] IVA4!

[Assassin IVA4]

Where would you be without me?

Frozen in carbonite, for sure.

Yeah, yeah. You don’t have to remind me.

We’ve got to do something about that droideka’s shield.

[Assassin IVA4] Even this thing’s lasers can’t scratch it.

It’s got a blind spot in the back, that’s where it’s vulnerable.

I’ll do what I can to distract it.

It might be our only chance at actually defeating it.

[crashes]

[Sevn gasps] You! How dare you!

[gasps]

Do you realize how much time and cost it took to collect all those specimens?

[Assassin IVA4] My bad.

BBBBBoom!

[Assassin IVA4 shouts]

[Assassin IVA4 whooping]

Nailed it.

You piece of trash!

[Assassin IVA4 grunts]

[gasps] Now’s your chance, break the shields!

[Sevn] Got it. [grunts]

[♪ Tense music playing]

[beeping]

[electricity crackles]

[cackling, gasps]

[electricity crackling]

[hisses]

[exclaiming]

[gasping]

It’s all over.

You’re nothing but scum.

[Sevn] Release the children. Now.

Fine. If that’s what you want.

[beeps]

[elevator whirs]

[Sevn gasps]

This is the girl you requested to see.

Am I right?

[collar chimes]

[gasps]

[Sevn gasps]

[JinSim] That’s right.

It’s a bomb designed to prevent escape.

[collar beeping]

And it will detonate on every one of my employees right now, unless you destroy your droid.

You!

[IVA4] Affirmative.

Destruction recommended.

[Sevn] IVA4!

Debate unnecessary.

Destroying me is strongly recommended.

[sighs]

Yeah, yeah, okay.

[blaster fires]

[electricity crackling]

[JinSim] Good.

Now toss your blaster aside.

I gave these orphans food, clothing, shelter, and work.

I even let them live as people do.

A ruthless bounty hunter like yourself has no right to judge me.

Oh, you’re so generous.

You use them and exploit them.

Well, I’d rather be frozen in carbonite than controlled by scum.

I can always deliver your corpse to Basham.

[clicks]

[snickers]

[Assassin IVA4] Sneak attack!

[Karin gasps] Oh, did I forget to mention?

This droid’s got two personalities.

Took you long enough.

[Assassin IVA4] Oh, shut it.

You should be thanking me from the bottom of your heart.

I’m gonna hand you over to the Republic authorities, you scum.

How does carbonite sound?

Don’t do this.

Have mercy on me.

Yeah. Mercy.

[Sevn] Got a moment?

[both] Huh?

Take this.

It’s the only one that wasn’t damaged.

You may as well try and sell it.

[Assassin IVA4] Twelve years ago, it sold for something like 2.1 million credits.

Wait, but are you sure?

Use it to get yourself and the kids something good to eat.

[Karin] Bye!

Now that that’s all done, and since the Sand Bird’s fully repaired, how about we make some credits?

You wanted to head to Winger’s base first, right?

[gasps] IVA4, how do you even know that?

Have you been going through my private messages?

Uh, of course.

This ship was mine until just now.

Unbelievable.

[alarm blaring] Wait. Not again.

[Assassin IVA4] Basham agents.

JinSim must have tipped them off.

[Sevn grunts] That handsome scoundrel.

It’s because you betrayed him.

Just like with Basham.

Lies! Those accusations are false.

Mark my words, I’m gonna find that Jedi and when I do, I’ll give her a piece of my mind.

[♪ Theme music playing]

[lightsaber activates]

[alarm blaring rapidly]

[electricity crackling]

[coos]

[BILY] Yuko.

[coos]

[droid chirping]

[man grunts]

[woman gasps]

[man] We’re surrounded! This is bad!

[woman screams]

[gasps]

[droid beeps]

[both grunt]

[BILY exhales]

Yuko, what’s wrong?

Hmm.

We’re having a party today.

Hmm. It’s your birthday after all.

[oven beeps]

Oh. The roast nuna is done.

Can you please stay home today, BILY?

[BILY sighs] I need to go into town to sell water.

But I’ll be sure to come back with a present.

Stay home! I don’t need a present!

[sighs] There, there.

I’ll be back in no time.

[whimpers]

[door opens, closes]

[♪ Ethereal music playing]

[grunts]

Hey, Pops.

[barkeep] Hmm.

Sola, I already told you, this is no place for kids.

[groans] It’s work related.

Have you seen these two before?

They’re smugglers.

Sounds like you’ve gotten yourself mixed up in something dangerous again.

Never.

So, do you know them or not?

I don’t.

Now what kind of trouble have you gotten yourself into?

Okay, so you don’t know.

Why you little…

[chuckles] Later, old man!

[sighs]

Whoa! [chuckles]

[panting]

[BILY] Nice doing business with you.

[speaking Jawaese]

[in English] Hmm?

[pants] Hey, mister, have you seen these people?

[shopkeeper] You mean around here? Hmm.

Can’t say I have.

And what about you?

They’re my family.

Sorry, I don’t know.

Hmm?

[breathes heavily]

Why did the kid have that?

I have to hurry back to Yuko.

Hmm?

[yelling]

[ronto growls]

[grunts]

Oh! Yuko!

[Jawas speaking indistinctly]

[Yuko straining]

[BILY grunting] Yuko, are you okay?

[coughs] Ugh.

[gasps] I found you!

Yuko, why?

[all exclaiming indistinctly]

We should be getting home.

I’m so sorry. Excuse me. Pardon me.

[Yuko groans] Okay, let’s go.

[♪ Mellow music playing]

Yuko, I’ve been thinking.

Don’t you think it’s about time we moved?

But why?

Well, because it’s so hard for you to make friends in this town.

Hmm. [panting] Oh. Yuko?

[grunts] But I’m fine anywhere as long as I’m with you.

[whirring]

[chuckles]

[Gura] What is this?

This isn’t what we’re looking for!

Look! See that droid over there.

I’ve never seen that type before, except in this.

I’m guessing it’s custom. It’s gotta be.

[both exclaiming]

[FoxEar] I see.

Then I assume you’ve located their hideout as well?

‘Course I have. [grunts]

[laughs maliciously]

Very well.

Riku, Gura, prepare for attack.

[Riku whimpers] Huh? [stutters] Attack?

Didn’t you tell me the job was retrieving stolen…

How naive.

[gasps] You didn’t think we’d let them get away with stealing from pirates, did you?

We’ll be taking everything they own as payback. Mmm.

[FoxEar] We leave immediately.

Uh…

[groans, inhales sharply]

[♪ Adventurous music playing]

[grunting]

[grunts]

[Yuko laughing and chomping]

There’s still plenty of food left.

Eat as much as you want.

Huh?

[knocking]

[both] Hmm?

[knocking continues] Huh?

Um, excuse me, who’s there?

[Sola] Open up!

Pirates are coming to attack you!

You gotta get out of there! Right now!

[Yuko gasps]

[BILY] Huh?

[loud rumbling]

[both yelp]

[Sola grunts]

[gasps] Dank farrik!

They’re already here.

Whoa.

[screams]

[BILY grunts]

[Sola groans]

Wait a minute. I recognize you.

[explosion]

[all screaming]

[both groaning]

[BILY grunting and groaning]

[♪ Dramatic music playing]

[FoxEar] Hmm?

There’s no one here but a kid.

Is this really the right house?

This is the place.

What do you think you’re doing?

Yuko.

I have no business with you.

Where might your parents be?

They took something valuable of mine, and I’m here to get it back.

With interest, of course.

Yuko’s parents are no longer with us.

They got sick and died.

You think you can trick me?

[grunts] You may be in hiding, but I see right through you.

You know where it is.

Spit it out.

Tell me where my treasure is?

It’s not here.

[whimpers, grunts]

Yuko!

How about now?

Do you still not know where it is?

[gasps]

[Sola grunts] Huh?

You rascal!

[yelps]

[blaster firing] Please, stop firing! I beg you!

[groans]

[grunts]

[chuckles]

Ugh. What a nuisance.

Bring the bear droid to the ship.

We can reprogram him there.

What do we do about the kids?

[FoxEar] Burn them with the house.

[BILY] Wait!

[FoxEar] Hmm?

You want the treasure?

[groaning] I’ll tell you. I’ll show you where it is.

Please, just don’t hurt Yuko.

[chuckles]

[Yuko groans]

Oh, thank goodness. You’re not hurt.

BILY! [pants] Oh, uh, wait!

BILY? BILY!

[whooshing]

[Sola grunts]

[whimpering]

[sobbing]

[Yuko crying]

[groans]

Enough! Stop crying already.

It’s just a droid.

We’ll get you another one.

[Yuko] BILY’s not just a droid!

He’s my family.

[sobbing]

Well, I don’t know what that means, okay?

[rattling]

[beeps plaintively]

Huh? Hmm?

What’s he doing?

[beeping frantically]

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Wait, wait, wait! Hey!

[both grunt]

[Sola panting]

Move it! I need to go and save BILY.

It’s too dangerous. You can’t go.

Would you give up if your family was taken from you?

[stutters]

[droid beeps]

[sighs] Huh?

Uh…

[droid chirps] What?

All right then. I’m coming, too.

Huh?

My name’s Sola. What’s yours?

Yuko.

Nice to meet you, Yuko.

Are you sure it’s this way?

What?

‘Cause Mos Eisley is the other way!

You sure it’s in this direction?

[beeping]

Yeah! BILY’s signal is definitely coming from this direction.

[♪ Suspenseful music playing]

[gasps]

It is here.

[exclaims]

[slurps]

Okay. So what’s the plan for getting BILY back?

[beeps]

Go there.

[stone thuds]

[gasps]

[breathing heavily]

[crackling in distance]

Did you just hear that?

I heard something inside.

Yeah.

[grunts] Yuko, don’t just go running off.

[panting]

[gasps]

[crackling]

What is all this?

These droids are the same as yours.

Okay, I’ll go down ahead.

Stay right behind me.

[Yuko] Got it.

[♪ Captivating music plays]

[all exclaim]

What is this place?

[BILY] It won’t open.

All that lies ahead is a grave.

Your so-called “treasure” doesn’t exist.

[Gura] Uh…

What?

[Riku] What?

Are you satisfied?

Now please leave us alone.

[grunting]

[groans]

[gasps] Mmm. You think you’re so clever.

Go fetch the child from the house.

Oh! Are you going to use him to open the door?

If you know what I want, why aren’t you doing it?

Aye, aye, sir!

[chuckles maniacally]

You’re coming with me. [laughing]

[Riku groans, screams]

[Gura] Come on! Let’s go!

[laughing]

[chuckles]

[♪ Whimsical music playing]

How far down does this go?

[whimpers] It’s that way.

Wait!

[panting]

There doesn’t seem to be anything over here.

Are you sure this is the right way?

Probably.

What… You don’t know?

[whirring]

[droid beeps]

[Sola] Hmm.

What is it?

Nothing.

Hmm? Huh?

[droid chirping]

Hmm, something’s following us.

[yelps]

[growls]

[both exclaim]

[roaring]

[♪ dramatic music playing]

[both screaming]

It still tingles.

I feel bad for ya.

[screaming in distance]

[Gura] Hmm?

[yelps] Is that…

[exclaims]

[both] There’s the kid!

Hey, stop!

[aliens chittering]

Huh?

[all screaming]

[rumbling]

What could that be? Hmm?

[roars]

[all screaming]

[roars]

[all groaning]

[FoxEar chuckles]

Congratulations on making it here.

I’ve been waiting for you.

[Sola whimpers] Where’s BILY? Give him back to me!

[chuckles] Very well, if that’s what you wish.

[gasps] Really?

[FoxEar] Come now, BILY.

Why don’t you have a nice reunion?

[both gasp]

[♪ Ominous music playing]

[gasps] BILY!

Hey, wait!

BILY!

[grunts]

BILY? [gasps]

[BILY growls]

[FoxEar laughs maliciously]

[aliens gibbering]

As you can see, I’ve taken the liberty of giving your precious BILY a few upgrades.

[roars]

[yelps]

[panting, grunts]

[roaring]

BILY, it’s me, Yuko!

Don’t do this!

BILY, stop it!

BILY, you have to wake up!

[FoxEar] Despite our reprogramming efforts, while BILY now follows orders, for some reason, he still will not open that door for us.

How frustrating.

[groans] However, you can open that door.

And if you do, I will set BILY back to normal.

What door?

I… I don’t know anything about a door!

[yelps, grunts]

[droid beeps frantically]

Yuko! [panting]

[grunts]

Sola!

Hurry up and open the door.

I can’t. I don’t even know how to.

So what? Who cares?

Just go over there and figure it out!

[panting]

[Sola grunting]

[grunts]

[digital beeping]

[gasps]

[both] It’s open!

[both laughing]

[aliens gibbering]

[chuckles]

I opened the door like you asked.

Now make BILY… [grunts]

[all clamoring] Fix BILY now.

You promised me.

Nicely done. You may go now.

Huh?

[BILY grunting]

[groaning]

[Yuko] Sola!

No, BILY. Stop this.

This is no time to stand around drooling.

Start loading the treasure before the sun s…

Huh?

[Gura and Riku whimpering]

Impossible.

[gasps] No way.

Is that all there is?

Uh, how dare they mock me!

[rumbling]

[all exclaiming]

[BILY grunts]

[♪ Dramatic music playing]

[growls]

[FoxEar gasps]

[all scream]

[roars] Retreat!

[grunts] BILY!

[grunting]

[Yuko] Stop!

[roars]

[Gura pants, whimpers]

[Riku] Huh?

Now’s our chance to get away.

[both] Yeah.

[beeping frantically]

[Yuko screaming]

They what?

[droid chirps]

He’s right. They’re trying to run away.

[panting]

[Sola] Hey!

[FoxEar] Huh?

[roaring]

As if we’re stupid enough to wait around for you children.

Take this.

[groans]

[both panting] Huh?

[groans]

I’m stuck! You fools! Help me!

What are you doing? Huh?

[droid chirps]

Dear. What was that?

[Yuko gasps]

BILY!

Yuko! What are you doing here?

Hmm?

[voice shaking] BILY, are you all right?

Well, I would hope so.

Why wouldn’t I be?

[sobbing]

[♪ sentimental music playing]

[exhales sharply]

Oh, dear.

[chuckles]

[exhales]

[Yuko and Sola gasp]

That’s weird. The whole thing is empty.

Well, that’s because our destination is underneath.

[Yuko and Sola exclaim]

Huh?

[Sola chuckles]

[gasps]

[♪ Captivating music plays]

Uh…

[pants]

[Yuko grunts softly] Uh…

[whirs]

What’s this?

[gasps] Hmm?

[baby cooing]

Hey! It’s your daddy!

Ah…

[both laughing]

[Yuko’s father] Wow.

[gasps softly]

[both continue laughing]

[♪ Sentimental music playing]

[grunting]

[gasps] It spilled. Yuko.

Ah…

[Yuko] Ah!

Ah… [chuckles] Yeah. Good job, Yuko.

[Yuko’s mother chuckles] You don’t move, okay?

[Yuko’s mother]

Look how much you’ve grown.

[Yuko’s father] Bet you’re gonna end up bigger than Daddy.

[crying]

[♪ Music intensifies]

[BILY] Hmm?

Yuko, your parents were wonderful people.

They brought food and medical aid to those in need across the Outer Rim.

And there’s something else.

They left you this.

[♪ dramatic music playing]

[gasps] It… It’s a starship.

Huh?

The original plan was to give it to you once you were all grown up.

But… Well, follow me.

[stutters]

[sighs]

[Yuko] Sola!

Hmm, huh?

Come on. Let’s go.

No. I mean, this is something your parents left for you, right? So…

[sighs]

So what? You’re part of the family, too.

Okay?

[stuttering] Come on. Hurry up.

[Sola gasps] Wow!

[Sola chuckling] Wha…

[chuckles] This is a real starship.

Whoa!

[chuckles] Oh, I wonder if it still works.

[console powers up]

[gasps] [chuckles] You know I’ve always dreamed of going to space one day.

Oh! Oh, well, wonderful.

In that case, shall I teach you both how to pilot it?

[both] Really?

[engine powering up]

[whooshes]

[♪ Enthralling music playing]

You should learn from Theo, right?

Hey, wait. Where did…

[woman] Theo!

[man 2] Looks like we got quite a bit.

Yeah.

It was definitely worth coming back.

Hmm.

Hey, anyone seen Theo?

Oh, that’s weird.

Wasn’t he just over there?

Ugh, great.

[scoffs]

Lulu, get ready to take off at a moment’s notice.

The storm’s coming in!

[yawns]

Theo, storm’s almost here.

I’m not going anywhere.

[Ron sighs] Come on. Not this again.

[Theo] I want to be with my family.

[Ron sighs]

Look, I don’t want to lose you too.

If we work together, you’ll be able to come back someday.

With the Empire’s advances, we can surely help.

[sighs]

[chuckling] Why else did we do all this?

The Empire won’t answer any of our calls.

There’s nowhere left for us to go.

Every planet… [grunts] All we are to them is a nuisance.

[sighs] If they’d just hear us out, I’m sure they’d be willing to take us in.

[♪ Intriguing music playing]

[rumbling]

[whooshing]

[Ron grunts]

[exhales sharply]

Thanks for the help.

My name is Ron.

What happened to this planet?

Hmm. They used it for carbonite mining, but during the war, it was abandoned and left to waste away.

It’s leaking in gas form, being released by quakes like the last one.

Now a third of the planet is carbon-frozen.

That city we left probably is too.

So you’re saying you have lost your planet?

[Ron] Not just our planet, we’ve lost so much more.

So many precious things.

[grunts]

This here is concentrated carbonite gas.

We’re doing research on it, so we can, one day, take back our home.

We’ll keep at it.

We haven’t given up hope just yet.

[man 2] Lulu, switch out the controls.

[tires screech]

[beeping]

Hi, Lulu.

Uh, hang on.

Does this mean you know Joona?

[♪ Tense music playing]

[indistinct chatter]

[♪ Amusing music playing]

[Joona] I told you to be careful.

[Mei gasps]

[girl gasps]

[boy 1 chuckles]

[boy 2] Uh, excuse me, but, uh, where did you come from?

[boy 3] What kind of ship do you have?

I like really fast ships.

They’re my favorite!

[boy 4] Other people wanna talk to her too, you know!

[chuckles]

You know what? I’m a tough fighter.

I’m gonna be the strongest in the whole galaxy!

Leon!

Come on! I know you have questions too.

I’m just asking for you.

[grunts]

[giggles]

[sighs]

[boy 2] What does meiloorun fruit taste like?

Hey, is it really true that Coruscant is totally covered in cities?

Hello! This is my friend.

His name is Imly.

Imly, nice to meet you.

[boy 5] Hey, did the Jedi really exist?

I heard the Jedi are the bad guys who started the war.

Me too! That’s why I want to work for the Empire when I grow up, so I could beat the bad guys.

[sighs] Getting older isn’t the same as growing up.

Gather lots of experiences, then you will truly grow up.

There’s no such thing as the Force, right?

That’s all made up.

You’ll have to figure that out by studying and observing things yourself, so you can make your own decisions.

[children] Huh?

Knowledge and experience complement imagination.

That helps you notice things, things you wouldn’t have seen before.

For example, someone else’s feelings.

[gasps, panting]

[Leon] Huh?

There’s more to reality than what we see.

And not everything seen is true.

On the other hand, there are some things you can believe in, even if you can’t see them.

Evil takes advantage of people’s ignorance and conflict, fosters ignorance.

Suspicion eats away at people, and eventually leaves wounds on one’s heart.

[gasps]

[gasps] Does that hurt?

[stammers] Is Joona gonna heal it for you?

Mei, you can’t just…

It’s all right.

This is a wound that I have to heal by myself.

By yourself?

Yes.

[prosthetic whirring]

[♪ Mystical music playing]

[F] This works.

Thank you, Joona.

Just try to be more careful next time.

[tires screech] [beeps] Hmm.

Looks like you struck a chord back there. [chuckles] Have you considered teaching?

I think you’d be good at it.

Not unlike your master.

[sighs] I don’t know.

[♪ Mystical music continues]

[Young F grunting]

It’s just because I’m little!

Wait till I’m grown up!

And what of Master Yoda?

He was small and strong.

[grunting]

Why don’t you consider staying for a while?

Thank you, but I would rather not wear out my welcome.

“Wear out?”

Someday I will come and visit you on your planet.

[Joona] That planet that even the Empire abandoned.

Well, I suppose I’ll just have to take your word for it.

[alarm blaring] Oi!

[both gasp]

[♪ Sinister music playing]

[both grunting] Huh?

[Imperial Admiral] This is the Imperial Star Destroyer Oppressor.

This message is for the Jedi hidden aboard this ship.

Surrender immediately.

Please, Ron, I wanna go too!

The shot we fired was merely a warning.

I need you to protect Joona.

If you refuse to comply…

But, Ron!

…we will not hesitate to shoot down your ship.

A great many innocent people will die as a result of your noncompliance.

[sighs]

[Ron] So you really are a…

Thank you for all your help.

[Ron] If you go, they’ll kill you.

If I don’t go, they’ll kill everyone.

You can’t.

I’m sorry about this.

Truly.

Don’t turn yourself in.

If you go alone, you can outrun them.

[F] Perhaps, but I can’t do that.

Why? Is this some Jedi code?

If you do this, it’s the same as giving up!

[Theo] Ron!

[gasps] Theo.

The Empire came here for us, but I…

I can’t… [grunting]

[Joona] What are our options?

This is a cargo ship full of refugees.

If they shoot us at this distance, we don’t stand a chance.

[Joona grunts, sighs]

[♪ Dramatic music playing]

[buttons clacking]

Now once I’m on board, you navigate back here, okay?

[groans]

[beeps]

[pants]

As if I’d let you do this alone.

[grunts]

I’m gonna turn in a Jedi and claim my reward.

Wow, what a reception!

And who are you?

I’m here to claim my reward.

[grunts] Here.

[officer] Hmm.

[trooper] Hey, you! Over here.

[Ron] Uh, can we get some grub first?

The refugee life makes a decent meal…

[sighs] Bring the Jedi to Zero.

[keys beeping]

[trooper] Get inside.

[♪ Dramatic choral music playing]

[gasps]

[gasps]

[ShadRah] We finally meet.

ShadRah…

I go by the name Zero now.

This flower, you left it at my grave, didn’t you…

F?

[gasps]

But, how?

I watched you die. [gasps] Yes, it’s true that I died.

But I was given a second chance, and so I returned.

Allow me to guide you once again, my young Padawan.

Master.

[trooper 1] The informant vanished.

[trooper 2] Find him!

All right, you’re up, Lulu.

[over comms] Guide me to the control room.

Make sure those troops don’t find me.

[grunts]

[grunts]

The Jedi were misguided.

It was their mistakes that brought about the war.

And so the Jedi must be destroyed.

No, it can’t be Hear me, Padawan.

No. You’re a proper Jedi now, aren’t you?

I’m giving you a chance to become my apprentice once again.

A chance to correct your misguided ways.

[shudders]

Your choice.

Will you eliminate the Jedi with me?

Or will you die as a Jedi?

What’s the matter? [groans] Take that lightsaber and give me an answer.

Hurry up!

I am not going to fight you.

Then you’ll run again.

“Again?”

[ShadRah] Don’t you remember?

You ran away from being a Jedi.

Ran from the war.

You’re always running, even from yourself!

I hate the war that killed me.

I hate the Jedi who caused the war.

I gave my life to protect you and you fled from the war.

And I hate you, too!

[Ron] Get that door up ahead!

[panting]

[both grunting]

You were the one who saved my life, and I’m grateful.

And because of that…

[panting] …I will continue to protect people.

Just like how you taught me to.

You’re only here because they turned you in.

Those weaklings are the ones who’ve driven you into this corner.

What value do they have?

Why save the likes of them?

Come on, Ron.

[Ron gasps]

[grunting]

[trooper 1] Hey, you there!

[blaster firing]

[trooper 2] Stop! Stop right there!

[chuckles]

[beeps]

[♪ Triumphant music playing]

Saving them?

Don’t be ridiculous.

It is by supporting each other that peace can be born.

[scoffs]

[F] My master followed the path of the Jedi and lost his life.

And so…

Hmm.

…I will continue to live as that master taught me.

[lightsaber hums]

[lightsaber whooshing]

As a Jedi.

[grunts]

[both grunting]

[lightsabers clashing]

[grunting]

Your skills are no match for me.

You can’t strike me down.

[grunts, winces]

[groaning]

I may not have the saber skills to cut you down, but that doesn’t mean I can’t stop you.

[labored breathing]

My, how you’ve grown!

[gasps]

Master!

[explosions]

[soldier] There’s been an explosion in Engineering!

This ship is unable to maintain its position!

[both grunting]

[both exclaiming]

[Joona] Way to go, kid.

[Ron over comms] Now’s your chance.

Jump to hyperspace.

What about you?

[Ron] It’s okay. I’ll be right behind you.

Besides, there’s still something I have to do.

We’re counting on you.

[Ron] Look after Leon for me, Joona.

Star Wars: Visions – S03E07 – The Smuggler | Transcript

[♪ String music playing]

[narrator] The planet Zenarita, for many peaceful generations, it prospered under the rule of its kings.

But with the rise of the Empire and its oppressive policies, the royal family began to question the state of the galaxy, leading to conflict.

Amidst the ensuing chaos, the royal family found themselves imprisoned for conspiracy against the Empire.

A puppet regime was subsequently established, placing Zenarita directly under Imperial control.

Only one member of the royalty was able to evade capture, Prince Arluu, and the Empire is now in relentless pursuit of him.

[doors hissing]

[indistinct chatter]

[gasps]

[Chita] Ba’ken!

[bangs on table]

The systems on my ship won’t turn on.

So, what’s the deal?

Yeah, of course, they won’t.

I locked you out of them.

What?

Hey, quit screwin’ around!

Go, unlock it right now!

Happy to.

Just as soon as you pay for those refurbished thrusters.

That’s when you get your ship back.

I already paid you.

That was the old price for parts and labor.

It’s twice that now.

What?

It was already a ripoff, and now you’re asking for more?

[Ba’ken] Things are dicey out there.

Costs went up.

Bantha dung!

Easy there.

If you wanna complain, then why don’t you take it up with the Empire?

[stutters]

What’s wrong?

You wouldn’t happen to be in trouble with the Empire, would you?

[groans] As if you weren’t the one who got me that job in the first place.

Huh? What are you talking about?

[spits] Well, in any case, I didn’t do anything wrong.

You sleemo!

[blaster clicks and powers up] [gasps]

[Chita stutters]

[blaster clicks and powers down]

Listen, Chita, I haven’t sold you out to the Empire because I’m a nice guy, and I respect your skills.

Just pay up and I’ll unlock your ship’s systems.

[Chita grunting and stuttering]

But you better hurry.

Even if I don’t blow the whistle on you, it’s only a question of time before the Empire finds you.

[Chita exhales]

[door opening]

[Gleenu] Pardon me.

You seem to be in a bit of trouble there.

And you are?

Someone who may be of help to you depending on where this chat leads.

[Chita] Go on.

Perhaps we can strike a deal.

I overheard your conversation and would be more than willing to cover your shortfall upfront in exchange for the transport of certain cargo.

Ah! A job, huh? [gasps] Yes.

And 10,000 credits upon delivery.

Ten thousand?

Really? The cargo must be pretty important then.

Yes.

So, what is it? And where’s it going?

Two people.

And the destination is any system outside of Imperial control.

Yeah? Problems with the Empire?

Yes. Very much like your own.

Sounds like we’re in the same boat.

Okay.

It’s a deal.

Goghzun, we’ve got a job so get back to the ship.

We’re gonna be transporting two passengers off Zenarita.

They’re paying us 10,000 credits.

Yeah, it’s a pretty risky job all right.

I’ll fill you in when I see you.

[Sakiyan] A 100,000? That’s crazy!

Huh?

[Twi’lek] So, they raised Prince Arluu’s bounty again.

Still, I really doubt he’s walking around in that royal getup.

Who knows what he looks like under all of that?

[Twi’lek sighs] I hope you are right.

[engine roaring]

[Chita] Hmm?

[whispers indistinctly]

Goghzun, what are you doing?

[Goghzun chittering]

Huh?

[yelps]

[groans]

[Goghzun chittering]

[Chita grunting]

[Goghzun chittering] [grunting]

[Goghzun chittering]

[grunting in frustration]

[Gleenu] Is something the matter?

Hmm.

[stormtrooper] Everything’s quiet at the port.

Proceed on your scheduled patrols…

It would be wise if we didn’t linger here for too long.

[Chita] Mmm? [sighs]

[Gleenu] I have received confirmation that your ship’s systems are unlocked now.

But it would appear that reaching it will be quite the difficult task.

Also, we have one more problem.

Another one?

I hate to break it to you, but my copilot just bailed on us.

[young man] I can take his place.

Huh?

I have a pilot’s license.

Specifically for Republic Cruisers.

Might that be of any use?

Yeah, I think that’ll work.

You’ve flied Republic cruisers?

This young man is an aspiring pilot.

And he’s the other person you’ll be transporting.

It’s a pleasure to meet you.

Hmm. Same here.

[Gleenu] Now, we only need a way to board the ship.

Well, marching right in would get us killed.

It’d be a different story if we had a Jedi.

Unfortunately, the Jedi are no more.

I know.

They all got purged after some failed takeover attempt, right?

[Gleenu] So says the Empire.

[chuckles] Don’t buy it either?

[young man] I’ve got it.

Hmm?

I believe that we may be able to gain entry into Hangar Bay 51 through the maintenance tunnels.

[Chita grunting] Really?

I know the path well.

I often used it to sneak out or rather to sneak in for some additional piloting practice.

[Chita] Sounds good. Lead the way.

We should hurry.

[droid warbling]

[bounty hunter] Heh.

[droid warbling]

[mother] Please, hold on! Wait a minute.

[young man] What?

What’s going on?

Let’s find out.

Hey, wait!

It’s the Empire.

It’s not smart for you to be here, kid.

Why not?

They’re goin’ out there and arresting everyone around your age.

Anyone who looks like Prince Arluu.

And you fit the bill.

Huh?

[mother stutters] Oh.

You’ve got the wrong person.

That’s my son you’re taking.

How can he be the Prince?

Dreadful.

It’s just a normal day for the Empire.

We better get out of here.

[gasps]

[groans] Mother!

Hey, why’d you push her?

[stormtrooper 1] Do not resist.

Don’t shoot him, please.

[stormtrooper 1] Hey. Hey. Away!

[mother groaning]

Mother!

[stormtrooper 1] Enough of this.

Stop this!

[panting]

[young man grunting]

[stormtrooper 1 groaning]

[Chita gulps]

[stormtrooper 2 panting]

Watch out!

[young man] Huh?

[stormtrooper 2 groans]

Hmm.

[young man scoffs]

Everyone, I suggest you stay back.

[people clamoring]

[stormtrooper 1 breathing heavily]

[groaning]

[stormtrooper 2]

We’ve encountered resistance, send backup…

[blaster shot]

[stormtrooper 2 groans]

[blaster shot]

[yelps]

[gasping and stuttering]

[stormtrooper 2 panting]

[crowd cheering]

Huh?

[Chita laughs]

[blaster shot]

Thank you.

Are you hurt?

No. Thank you. I’m fine.

[son] You guys were amazing.

I can’t believe my eyes. Prince Arluu?

Uh… Huh?

[young man sighs] I am.

[Chita exclaims]

[son stutters]

[Chita] Huh?

[Chita grunting and stuttering in bewilderment]

Highness?

I refuse to lie to them.

You have to leave now.

[son] My mother’s right.

They’ll be back before long.

But what of you?

Don’t worry, we can manage.

[distant thudding]

[all gasping]

[mechanical whirring]

[thudding continues]

[all gasp]

[man 2] Hey!

Use this to get away!

Thanks a lot!

[panting]

Please, go.

[Arluu] Hmm.

[Chita] Hang on.

I never guessed you were the prince this whole time.

Head for the walker.

What?

We need to lead it away.

Respectfully, that’s not smart.

I insist.

[groans in frustration]

If you say so.

[engine revving]

[all gasp]

[laser cannon firing]

Looks like we lost it.

[engine roaring]

[all gasp]

[launcher fires]

[all groaning]

Who the hell is that guy?

Unfortunately, it’s a bounty hunter.

[grunting]

He is rather quick.

Quit complimenting him and sit down!

What’s your plan?

We jump.

[Arluu and Gleenu] Jump?

[all grunt]

[Chita grunting]

[Arluu whimpers]

[speeder engine turns off]

Yeah!

Huh?

[all yell]

[Chita grunting]

[Arluu grunts]

[Arluu grunts in pain]

Are you hurt?

We’re all right.

[speeder bike engine drones]

[bounty hunter] Are you Prince Arluu?

I am.

[stormtrooper 1 grunting] What?

[blaster fire]

[both groaning]

[bounty hunter] He’s mine.

You’re worth more alive.

Why don’t you just come along quietly?

I refuse.

[bounty hunter] Figures.

Things aren’t looking too good right now.

Stay back, both of you.

What’s your plan?

We break through.

We break through?

Allow me.

[Chita gasps]

[Arluu hesitates]

[Gleenu] Hmm.

[Arluu] Hmm.

[♪ Suspenseful music playing]

[lightsaber hums]

[bounty hunter gasps]

[blasters powering up]

[bounty hunter grunting]

[Chita grunts]

[Arluu exhales]

[Chita] Where’d he go?

It would appear he fled.

Huh?

Does this mean you’re a…

Those explosions have likely alerted other troopers.

Yeah, you’re right.

Let’s go.

This way. Huh?

[door closing]

[♪ Dramatic music playing]

[beeping]

I’m sorry.

[Chita] Hmph.

[engine whirring]

All systems are good. You got this?

It’s an older model.

I’ve never flown one, but it’ll do.

Stellar!

[♪ Triumphant music playing]

[bounty hunter] Huh?

Something’s on our rear.

It’s the bounty hunter who fled, I’d wager.

[grunts] He’s stubborn. Not bad.

But we should be able to shake him off when we hit hyperspace.

I don’t think that will work.

Why not?

An Imperial Star Destroyer is blocking our flight path.

What? How’d they find us so fast?

The bounty hunter undoubtedly alerted them.

Bantha dung!

All right, that’s way too big to avoid.

We’ll just slip around the rear.

We can’t do that.

Why not?

We should just change course for now.

Guess we’ve got no choice.

Missiles!

[grunts] They’re locking on.

I know!

[explosion]

Nicely done.

Too easy.

TIE fighters, incoming.

[cannons firing]

[engines roaring]

More missiles.

I’ll put ’em to use.

Full power to engines!

[both grunting]

[starship whooshes]

[bounty hunter grunting]

Way too slow.

[♪ Triumphant music playing]

[sighs deeply]

[chuckles softly]

[chuckles softly]

[exhales]

[gasps]

Did you honestly intend to leave without even so much as a goodbye?

Gleenu, I…

That’s fine.

Can I at least convince you to accept your payment?

You plan to take Zenarita back.

You’ll need money for that, right?

I suppose so.

To tell the truth, the Empire also made a mess of my planet and my family right along with it.

It was awful.

I guess you aren’t the only ones holding a grudge.

So I see.

Gleenu, you’re a Jedi, aren’t you?

That’s all in the past now.

The past?

[Gleenu] On the day of that great betrayal, I wasn’t able to save my fellow Jedi.

I would have shared their fate if not for the King.

From then on, I made a vow I would serve Zenarita instead of the Jedi Order.

I had no choice but to unseal my saber when we escaped.

So please…

Hmm.

[Gleenu] You’re here at last.

Huh?

Thank you for delaying her departure, Gleenu.

[Chita groaning]

Don’t be angry.

Besides, isn’t it rather cold of you to leave without saying a word?

Oh. No, I wasn’t trying to be cold or anything.

More to the point.

Hold on. What point?

I actually have another job for you.

What?

[Gleenu clears throat]

Perhaps you should rethink how you make this request.

What?

Huh? Indeed.

Uh…

Chita, I need you now more than ever.

I want you to come with us.

I wish to liberate the youth of Zenarita so they could join the Rebellion.

And for that, we need a skilled smuggler.

[exhales and gasps softly] Well, then, shall we go?

You got it.

[Nakime grunting]

You’re better with an insult than a weapon.

How very un-Jedi-like of you.

Nakime, your haste betrays you.

Surrendering to the heat of emotion in battle.

Focus on the precepts, Padawan.

“Traverse all moments with a serenity of heart.” I know.

[Master] Nakime, trust in the Force and its energy, which binds all living things.

Don’t lecture me!

I need something I can actually use!

‘Course, it was.

Even so, I wish it would’ve told me what I’m supposed to do.

Let me cling to a shred of hope.

Even if it’s just for tonight.

The Sith!

[Aman] Aw, my poor little Padawan.

You could escape this in the blink of an eye, you know?

[grunts] All it will take to free yourself is surrendering to the emotions you try so hard to hide away.

Allow your fear and your anger to claim you.

[grunting]

If you don’t give in to them, you’re going to die.

And you wouldn’t want that, would you?

[grunts, sighs]

[Aman] Submit and survive another day…

[sighs] …or perish as a Jedi failure.

[breath trembling]

I can’t deny it.

[Aman] Hmm?

Master told me over and over that I can’t keep making decisions for my own benefit.

Sense of self is my undoing.

It was easy to fall to the dark side.

[laughs maniacally]

Just because your master filled your skull with Jedi garbage doesn’t mean you have to believe it.

Now, join me and I will set you free.

[♪ Music building up]

[groans] I’m such a fool.

It was…

It was all in my head!

[♪ Serene music playing]

[pants] I can’t go any further.

What shall I do? Show me the way.

[Toad] If I may, hail and hello, stray human.

[groans softly] You have done well to find me.

[grunts]

[Nakime] No, I just heard a voice, and then…

Mmm?

[laughs] If you think your ears have grown more keen as of late, young one, then allow me to shoo away that wrongheaded belief at once.

They’re the same fallible flaps that they ever were.

Huh? [chuckles] No. I just thought I was getting used to losing my sight.

As you travel the path of knowledge, your connection to the Force grows stronger.

Wait.

Don’t tell me you’d failed to notice.

[laughs]

It is your heart that is blind.

Why lament your eyes?

[gasps] Arrogance has hobbled you.

Cast it aside.

Entrust yourself to the flow of nature.

Accept it.

The Force resides in all things.

You will never take a false step if you let it guide you.

Huh?

Let the Force guide you.

[sighs]

Yeah, yeah.

[grunts] Force, show me the way.

No, not here.

[grunts, groans]

[Toad] True vision flows from beyond the stars to part the veil of illusion.

But you cannot partake of such clarity till you are one with the current.

[sighs]

“With the current.”

Ow! I’m freezing!

What is this supposed to help me understand? Ugh!

Why am I drowning myself like this?

There is no need to fear, Nakime.

Take it in your hand.

The power of life is within your reach.

[gasps] So be it.

No matter what, I want to live.

As long as I have this, no one can defeat me.

Good. You’re learning.

Silence, you evil phantom!

[grunts]

[gasps]

Ha! What’s the matter?

Come on, kill me if you even can!

[grunts] Do you fear me, little girl?

Do you hate me? Say it.

Yes.

I fear you.

And I despise you!

[grunting] You want to get out of here ’cause you’re a coward, huh?

Yes! I don’t want to die here alone!

Is that so horrible?

[laughs] Now we’re getting somewhere.

[both grunting]

Come on, then. Tear your life back from the edge of the abyss.

Revel in the freedom of your hatred and your rage.

Dare to unleash your truest self!

I don’t get it.

What hideous part of me are you?

[gasps]

Of course.

You’re my…

[grunts]

…my immaturity, my impulsiveness, my ego and my fear of death.

I see.

It’s all connected.

[sighs]

Kill me and you can live.

Why don’t you strike me down?

[Nakime grunts]

[groans]

[grunts] Why didn’t you block my attack?

[groans] [shouting] Answer me!

[groans] The Jedi taught me their ways…

[breath trembling]

…but I never truly believed in them.

[gasps] I was bound by my own desires.

My selfishness always found a way to put them first.

My heart, my resolve, my purpose was weak.

That’s why anything I feared became my foe.

I was flailing in a web of my own design.

Now I see the two of us were never foes to begin with.

You’re a part of me and I of you.

[gasps, shouts] Shut up!

Have you… been afraid of me too?

[screams]

[breathing heavily]

Yes, Master.

“Traverse all moments with a serenity of heart.” I shall.

“Do not let emotion…”

[Master] Do not let emotion rule over you.

“…rule over you.” Hmm.

Death will terrify me no longer.

If I should die, I will surely become one with the Force.

I would rather lose my life than lose hope, like a Sith.

[Dark Side Nakime gasps]

[panting, cries]

[Nakime] It’s all right.

There’s nothing to fear.

[crying]

No, I… I want to live.

I can’t die like this.

This isn’t fair! [sniffles] Please. I’m so afraid!

[crying]

[Nakime] I know.

I know, because you’re me.

Letting go is hard, and it’s thanks to you that I can die as a Jedi.

Goodbye, my weakness.

It’s time to move on.

But know, I’ll always be with you, for you are a part of my soul.

I can feel it.

Master’s lesson.

I think I’ve finally taken it to heart.

[♪ Hopeful music playing]

[groans]

[water splashing]

I’m alive…

I think.

[sighs]

[chuckles softly]
