Where is Vario?
They killed the crew and stole the payment.
Give him a message from Marg Krim.
I will personally deliver the lost payments to you,
plus the value of the destroyed cargo.
[Two-Boots] Due to this escalation, it is imperative we alert the Empire.
If the Empire comes in, they'll take over.
If we're ill-equipped to handle—
Two-Boots, drop it. That's an order.
Why are you following me?
My niece.
I want you to understand that she's caught in the wrong place
by an extremely dangerous individual.
You crave that unfulfilled destiny.
I'm going to need that back... Devon.
Identify yourself.
Uh, hi, yeah, Looti Vario. Illustrious Imperator Krim is expect—
Cleared for landing.
Greetings. Hello. Uh, yes, the credits, as promised.
Count it.
Uh... Hmm. Um...
[whimpering, softly] I didn't have a choice.
- What are you saying?
He's here.
Search every inch of that ship.
- Picking up another life form.
He made me do it.
Kill him!
I tried to warn you!
I got you.
Tell Krim, I'm the one who handed him Maul.
You think I didn't know what was happening on Janix?
You think I didn't hear the rumors of Maul's return?
Explain yourself.
Look, I had no choice.
He was gonna kill me if I didn't cooperate.
But I took care of him before he could get to you.
You're welcome, by the way.
Hmm. Bring him closer.
- That's not Maul!
I was alone and weak after the tragic events on Mandalore.
And I came here, to you,
my old ally, seeking safe haven.
But you tried to kill me.
You failed.
This is what awaits all those who have betrayed me.
My Lord.
You are the Captain of the Guard?
Uh... Yes, My Lord.
What is your name?
Kalt, Lord Maul.
You are in charge now, Kalt.
But you answer to me.
Padawan.
Master!
- You're injured. - I'm fine.
Come.
Thank you for keeping it safe.
It brings me peace to have you back at my side, Devon.
I'm happy to see you, too, Master.
I searched the city.
How did you escape?
It was... not easy.
Maul's presence will inevitably attract the Empire.
We should leave this planet immediately.
But, Master, I know where he is.
Careful, young one.
Do not let your judgment be clouded by your need for vengeance.
It's not about that.
We're Jedi.
We can bring him to justice.
We are no longer the defenders of justice in the eyes of the galaxy.
But there are good people here.
And we're the only ones who can stop Maul.
We can't just leave him to terrorize them.
He is not alone. He has many mercenaries.
What about the local authorities?
There's a detective. Lawson.
Yes, I am familiar.
We received an anonymous transmission
reported to be the location of the fugitive.
We got a lot of tips, Wade.
Yeah. This one was directed to you specifically.
Sent from an "Uncle Daki."
Didn't know you had an uncle.
Where's the location?
Sector 14-Q.
That area's abandoned.
Chief! I know where Maul is.
I need a strike team immediately.
We wait any longer and we might as well invite the Empire to get him themselves.
Approved.
Lawson, make sure you get him this time.
Ready squads.
All right, move it, move it, move it!
Captain, has something transpired?
Got a lead on Maul's location.
We must alert the Empire.
Two-Boots, what are you doing?
We are not equipped to apprehend this fugitive without adequate support.
No! I need more time!
I'm sorry, Captain.
But your abuse of protocol
potentially places yourself and your squad in terrible danger.
I have no choice.
We—
Sorry, buddy.
Settle your nerves, Devon.
What if they don't come?
Nothing in life is certain.
But I feel confident the lawman will investigate,
based on the information I have sent him.
What is it?
They're here.
Oh, there you are. About time.
Team is in position.
We have movement.
Easy, Lawson. Easy.
Vario?
What is this? Where's Maul?
Right here. He's got a message for you.
A pleasure to see you again, Captain.
Is it?
Through our brief encounter,
I've come to suspect you as a man of honor and intelligence.
Gee, thanks.
Surely you realize you are greatly outmatched.
I wouldn't say that.
I believe we can come to an arrangement before you make a terrible mistake.
Yeah? What kind of arrangement?
I offer you my protection.
Your protection?
Indeed.
I believe we would both like to avoid any Imperial involvement on this planet.
And how do you know the Empire's not on their way?
If that were the case, they would already be here.
And since they are not,
that means you have chosen to disregard Imperial protocol.
As I said, a man of intelligence.
So, I offer you a truce.
I will not trouble your city
so long as you allow me to operate here, unimpeded.
We will have peace
without the grip of the Galactic Empire around either of our throats.
We must find Maul. He's here.
I'm afraid I just can't accept that offer.
Disappointing, but honorable.
Here's what's gonna happen.
You and your mercenaries are going to stand down and surrender.
You'll be taken peacefully and remain under our protection to stand trial.
By Janix law, not the Empire's.
I admire your spirit, Captain.
Die well.
Watch it, watch it.
I had a feeling you would return, Devon.
And just as I hoped, you brought your master.
So nice to formally meet you, Master...
Daki.
You've come to kill me.
You made the police captain an offer,
so we will do the same.
Surrender and you will be unharmed.
Surrender?
When has that passive ideology ever served you, Jedi?
Haven't you learned your lesson?
It seems not.
Yet, we have survived.
And you will find justice even in times as dark as these.
You survive, but you do not live.
With your power and abilities,
you should lead and be respected by all.
Not crawl on your hands and knees, begging to survive.
You and I have different definitions of what it means to live.
Our powers are meant to be used only in the service of others.
And look where that's gotten you.
Crushed under the heel of those who are, in truth, inferior to you.
It is your unwillingness to use your power that makes you weak.
That is your delusion.
Then let us discover the truth.
With me!
The probe had a position on Maul.
I'm going after him.
Your master is indeed fortunate to have you at his side.
Go time.
Booshkeedoo!
Time to go.
Disappear.
Why didn't you tell me you were a Jedi?
I would think the reasons were obvious.
Where's Maul?
Gone.
Backup is arriving. Go.
- Go, go, go! All units, stand by.
Go, go.
Meh, what that noise?
- Uh oh.
Trouble. Big, big trouble!
Something's happening.
- Master, are you sure you're all right?
I'm sorry.
I failed you.
I'm sorry I deactivated you, Two-Boots.
I forgive you, Captain.
And I hope you will be able to forgive me.
