Dedra Meero.
She's focused on a suspect she's calling Axis.
She thinks he's building a rebel network.
She started looking into stolen Imperial Naval equipment.
Dedra Meero.
I can't do this anymore.
We took a vow.
I'm giving you Dedra Meero.
I'm giving you Spellhaus.
I'm warning you about Ferrix. I'm honoring my vow.
We can't let you go, Lonni.
We can't spare you.
I need all the heroes I can get.
And what about Axis?
You've invested almost two years.
You've built the legend and delivered almost nothing.
Next time, catch them first.
Then make them famous.
You've stayed here long enough.
I'm not finished yet.
They're gonna find you, Luthen!
You act as if we had a choice.
Eventually, they'll hang us both.
We set that course the first time we met.
Lonni.
They're almost here.
I'm walking away.
Do as I say.
Supervisor Heert.
- Yes, sir. - The Axis desk,
I notice you've taken an interest in this seizure.
The weapons, sir. There are some pieces
that appear to have come from the Axis supply chain.
You've had that ten days?
It's my desk now, Dedra.
Do you really think I care about how it happens?
You can have all the glory.
Has it ever crossed your mind that Partagaz put me on Axis
because I don't seek glory?
Partagaz was gonna chew his way through Lagret and eat me for fun.
I don't know what I was thinking.
How do I repay you?
Dedra Meero is running Ghorman.
I doubt there's three people in the building
that know what I've just told you.
And Meero. Why? She's a hunter, not a spin doctor.
- Maybe she's oversight. - Of what?
A smear campaign is an opening move, not an endgame.
I need the endgame!
I can't keep track anymore!
All these lines we've laid. All this information.
The radios, the frequencies, the messages flying around!
We're drowning.
And you keep pretending it's all under control.
Tell me you're ready.
We'll meet at the old steps.
There was construction the last time I went through.
We don't have time for alternatives. Keep your distance.
I will if you will.
Look, going like this is risky enough.
Just promise me if it doesn't look perfect,
you won't engage.
I think we used up all the perfect.
Move.
Tuck your shirt in.
You came.
You rang the big bell.
I always wondered if it would work.
Dedra Meero contacted a friend of mine in Tactical last night.
She's looking for a team to be put together
for an operation in Coruscant.
I think she's coming for you.
Why would your friend tell you this?
Meero is always bending the rules.
He wanted to know if I thought it was safe to comply.
And you're not sure?
So call him back and find out.
I can't.
I'm burned.
They'll be on me soon enough.
I had to make a decision.
What have you done?
I figured it out.
Everything.
I know what we've been chasing.
But first, we talk about safety.
Promises were made.
I have my wife and my daughter tucked away for the moment,
but I need you to tell me how you're gonna get us out of Coruscant.
Tell me what you've done.
I have had Dedra Meero's code cert for a year now.
Total access.
Her private storage.
I knew if I told you, you'd push me to use it.
But if she's onto you…
It had to be done.
- You went into her files? - I had a two-hour window.
And you still don't know if she's coming after me or not?
I didn't have time.
Because I found something more critical.
Something huge.
So, now we're bargaining?
I wasn't followed.
Because if they knew what I found,
they wouldn't have let me out of the building.
I need safe passage, Luthen. I need it today.
Obviously.
Where? Where do we go?
It depends. There's fast and there's good.
How much time do we have? How hard will they come?
They'll come at this with everything they've got.
Assume they're coming now.
Then there's no time to play games.
I need to know what we're talking about.
You're not the only one who'll be running.
We're in this together.
I need details.
What are we up against?
The Emperor's energy program is a lie.
All of it.
The rebellion on Ghorman? It was a front from the start.
A cover to strip-mine the planet for some mineral that they need.
They're not looking for Partisans on Jedha, they need kyber crystals.
The crackdowns. The Public Order. The labor camps. Scarif.
- Fronting for what? - A weapon.
Orson Krennic's been building a secret weapon for over a decade.
Colonel Yularen wasn't even told until a month ago.
- What kind of weapon? - Where will you take us?
Yavin.
What is that?
We'll be safe there.
As safe as we can be.
Yavin?
Tell me about the weapon.
That's a good boy.
Want to go for a run?
There.
Pix! Come here, boy!
Come here!
Ghorman. Scarif. Kyber. Krennic. Erso.
Galen Erso. Galen.
Engineer Galen Erso.
Super weapon. Based in Scarif. Fuel from Ghorman.
Kyber from Jedha. ISB Krennic. Galen Erso.
And you know where to go?
No.
No, no. I'm doing the comms…
No, you're not.
- I'll be faster. - I'll do the burn.
- Luthen… - Please don't argue.
Just be waiting for me.
Just be there.
Go.
You're open.
Please. Join us.
I've passed by here many times.
I've always wanted to come in.
- And here you are at last. - Hmm.
Luthen Rael.
Dedra Meero.
So… calm here.
Peaceful.
Can I tell you how much
it pleases me to hear that?
Is everything real?
Ah, what a wise question.
Forgery is the sad curse of antiquities.
At the moment, only two pieces of questionable provenance in the gallery.
Any guesses?
Have a look.
They thought this was a fake.
What is it?
It's a Nautolan bleeder.
Sixty centuries old.
Probably ceremonial.
Only three others have ever been found.
And?
Is it real?
We still don't know. The tension mounts.
All these pieces, do you own them all yourself?
Most of it.
I have a few items on consignment.
Well, in that case, I may have something for you.
It would have to be stunning.
Now I'm nervous.
What if it's not?
Not what?
"Stunning."
You've come all this way.
A vintage Imperial Starpath unit.
What do you think?
A little damaged, perhaps…
But I'd say it's held its value.
I have dreamt of this.
Too many versions to remember.
And here you were… all that time,
hiding in the shelter of Imperial peace and quiet.
And I've known you all along. Hardly seems fair.
You disgust me.
Do you want to know why?
Everything you stand for.
Freedom scares you.
"Freedom"?
You don't want freedom.
You want chaos,
chaos for everyone but you.
Ruin the galaxy and then run back to your ridiculous wig
and little workshop.
How confident you are.
- We're done here. - Confident and terrified.
The building is surrounded.
You're finished.
And you're too late.
The rebellion isn't here anymore. It's flown away.
It's everywhere now.
There's a whole galaxy out there waiting to disgust you.
And soon, you'll be telling us all about it.
What have you done?
Turn around.
Turn around or be stunned.
No. No.
No, no, no.
All units engage. I need a med-team. Now!
- Go, go, go, go, go! - In back! He's destroying evidence.
- In the back! - Move!
Where is the med-team?
Step back! Make room!
I need him alive. Keep him alive.
He can't die.
Pressure steady.
Transport clear.
You two, with me. Now!
- Hasn't the meeting started? - He called it off.
- What? - I'll let him tell you.
About Jung? We just got word three minutes ago.
No! This thing with Meero.
Supervisor Heert!
Meero called a raid this morning, and it's gone badly.
She believes she's found Axis.
Or she did. He's apparently seriously wounded.
- Sir. - You have every right to be upset.
She's been warned about stepping over boundaries before.
Jung is dead. That's why I'm late.
What?
He was killed. They just found him in a park across town.
Pick 'em up.
Crossfire. Where's my crossfire?
Stragglers. We got runners. Runners on the hill.
Where do they think they're going?
Strafe it.
If it's moving, kill it.
…wipe those cabins.
Who's got that hill?
Hit it. Hit it hard.
The wall!
- No! - Against the wall!
Let's move! Move, move!
Okay!
Make it stop.
Rosh ne luts. Rosh ne luts.
Make it stop.
Rosh ne luts.
Make it stop!
Rosh ne luts.
Finish up!
Make it stop.
Make it stop!
Let's go!
They're moving.
Sergeant!
You in there?
There you are. Cap's been looking for you.
I had to reload.
We cleared that other basement.
I heard it.
Had to be about 50 of 'em in there.
I said I heard it.
Any burners you got?
He wants that whole street out there on fire.
Your radio's off, by the way.
They're gonna go in for a closer look.
Anything moving in that building is a target.
He says there's nothing left to kill.
Forget it. Bring in those fifties.
Squad three, squad four, you're up.
Uh, south of the canal. He wants to sweep the whole ridge.
I count three more settlements to go.
Two, two, two. He's still moving. Close it down.
Sergeant Lear, come in.
Sergeant Lear, where are you?
Where's Sergeant Lear?
Anyone?
He's in the ship, sir.
Lear! Are you in there?
Take those up to the pit.
Sergeant!
What're you doing?
My converter backed up again. I'm resetting it.
They want us in the air.
It was stalling on the way in.
He wants to strafe the ridge.
It's resetting. What can I do?
Don't be too long.
I can't believe there's anyone left…
but you don't want to be out here alone.
I'll be right behind you.
When can I have him?
For what?
I need him talking.
Right now, that room is keeping him alive.
This is an Elevated ISB Priority.
I suggest you speak to your medical director about what is expected.
We'll be taking command of this hallway.
You need to clear everyone immediately.
The floor's full. These are my patients.
Then I'm sure you'll do a better job moving them than we will.
As if no one else matters.
- Did they say who it was? - They never say.
As if we won't find out.
It's probably some senator.
We'll know tomorrow.
Yes.
Everything's under control.
That's a bold statement.
I expect to have him ready for interrogation by tomorrow night.
You waited for my day off.
I couldn't risk a leak.
How ironic.
I have a call into Partagaz.
Well, we'll have that forwarded for you.
What does that mean?
You're under arrest, Dedra.
But that's ridiculous.
I have Axis. I found him.
I came with an ISB Marshal.
- I have to talk to Partagaz. - He sent me.
Fine.
Let's get this sorted.
I'll just be a moment. Someone will be right here with you.
Huh?
I'll have to weigh it.
It's a pure kilo.
Where'd you get it?
It was my wife's.
Not a booming market right now.
- Really? - Hmm.
I doubt there's another dealer in the woods
- that even knows how to price this. - Oh.
My lucky day.
Yeah. A tough piece to lay off…
The grain is flawless.
Your wife know you've got this?
She's dead.
What's the offer?
What are you looking for?
It's worth 40.
I know I'll never get that out here, so 20.
Hmm. I'll give you seven.
We both know what it's worth.
Well, right now, it's worth seven.
Let's walk back.
- Let her counter. - Seven?
Forget it.
This your daughter?
Yes.
Has that got sentimental value? 'Cause I could go up to nine.
- Twenty. - Ten if you smile.
- Twenty. - Does she know how this works?
We already have an offer for 15.
Oh, who done that?
Zooli, back by the gate.
Sooli. And she's a thief.
Twenty.
Eighteen's my max.
Sold. But no smile.
Well done.
Am I your daughter now?
When it's useful.
I have to think about that.
We'll be whoever we have to.
It won't always be up to us.
I'm Luthen now. You're Kleya.
Everything else is up for grabs.
I didn't mean to upset you.
I'm not upset.
Just hungry.
Let's eat.
Eh?
What?
Seventeen's as far as you go.
We're trying to get to the 19th floor.
No. It's special access only at the moment.
Her daughter's up there.
Sorry, love.
We'll check in down here, then.
Let them know.
You clean this up?
Nice work.
You know what it is?
Devaronian. Victory necklace.
How'd you know to bring it here?
I heard you collected.
It bears the marque.
Any more where this came from?
Not today.
Clear the way! Stand back!
I said clear the way! Move!
What's this?
Trooper ate a bolt the other night. Sniper.
And they keep finding people who did it.
Where are they taking them?
- Out of the way! - These are peaceful citizens!
They're innocent!
They've done nothing!
Clear the way!
You can have it for 80.
I can do 80.
- Move! - Kleya, we're leaving.
- There are children here! - Let them go!
I will not tell you again!
- Mercy! - Let them go!
- It's not all right! - These are…
- What did they do? - It's reprehensible.
All right. Get 'em lined up!
Did you hear me?
We're leaving.
I'm not.
There's nothing here for us.
Kleya!
You're on your own.
Stop it! Please!
- Move! - No!
Somebody stop them!
- Show some mercy! - Forward!
Stop it!
Be brave, brothers!
We won't forget you!
Left!
Turn!
Ready!
- What have they done? - They promised me!
Present!
No!
Fire!
Attention!
How do you live with yourself?
- March! - There'll be none of us left!
When do we start fighting back?
We have.
By walking away?
We fight to win.
That means we lose.
And lose and lose and lose…
until we're ready.
All you know now is how much you hate.
You bank that. You hide that.
You keep it alive until you know what to do with it.
And when I tell you to move, you move.
Move!
Confirming we have the entire level on lockdown.
Units posted at all ingress and egress.
You're gonna have to turn back. There's no access here.
I was sent for Doctor Nash?
This unit is closed.
Let's g…
How many you think there are?
Fifty. Maybe more.
You're not eating.
It's a beautiful place.
How long do we have?
Look around.
I knew you'd do this.
Think about where you are.
You're backing out.
You need to pay attention.
Life shows us what we stand to lose.
Most people look away. We can't be like that.
Look at me.
You need to accept what you're leaving behind.
All right.
We're here. It's a pretty place.
None of that matters right now. You're just being sad.
I need to know you're making a choice.
I lived most of my life…
without ever realizing that that was a possibility.
You're afraid.
I'm only afraid of what I'm doing to you.
I know what I want.
Do it.
You think I won't?
You have every right.
Why are you doing this?
Because today, it's real.
You promised.
I lie. Get used to it.
Don't.
Look at me!
And turn.
We'll be leaving now.
We made our choice.
What was that? Come on!
Let's go. Move, move, move!
Whole team, come on!
- Move it! - With me!
There. Search everywhere.
Hey! What's the…
Hey! Hey! You!
