- Twenty credits. - Ten.
- Twenty. - Fifteen.
Hey! Who threw that?
It was him.
The kid can barely lift a vase that big, let alone throw one.
But he did. We saw it.
Sorry. So sorry.
I told you that kid was strange.
People say he's cursed. You know? Gifted.
Shh. Don't go saying things like that.
You know what kind of trouble that could bring. Come on.
I've got a tip for a class one bounty hunter.
There's a kid here you might be interested in.
What's the issue?
Progress in the lab has stalled since Nala Se's confinement.
The Kaminoan can no longer be trusted.
Do you trust me?
I've spent years working by your side.
With a proper clearance,
I could be more useful.
You wish to be the new chief scientist, Dr. Karr?
I believe I have earned it.
Hmm. Very well.
Let's begin by bringing you up to speed on Project Necromancer.
In addition to the assets in the sublevel containment chamber,
you will be given access to the vault.
The specimens within are now your responsibility.
They are vital to this project.
And thus, must be handled with the utmost care.
These particular three were selected because of their high M-count.
Why children?
Are there not adults that could serve this purpose?
There are few adults left with such characteristics.
Children are easier to attain and more agreeable to the subjugations.
They're unaware of why they're here and what they possess.
As you know, M-count cannot be directly replicated from the source.
However, Nala Se knew of another way.
Which is why she aided in Omega's escape.
The young clone's blood is the only binder that's proven to be compatible
with their DNA to re-create their M-count levels.
And why Omega must be found.
Testing should proceed as planned.
We must be prepared for every possibility once she is recovered.
Sir.
Hello.
I like your glasses.
Uh, thank you.
What is your name?
Dr. Karr?
Limit your personal interactions with the specimens.
They are scientific assets, nothing more.
Of course, Doctor.
Oh.
Uh, uh, uh.
Todo, the test.
Coming right up, Mr. Bane.
That'll do.
Keep that thing quiet.
I am not a nanny droid.
You! You, there. Stop that.
Oh. Oh! I did it.
Let's move.
Thanks for the tip.
Hello again.
Hello, SP-54.
My name's Eva. What's yours?
You may refer to me as Dr. Karr.
What happened to Mistress Nala Se? She hasn't been back.
She is no longer overseeing this project.
Why not?
That is not your concern.
Oh, but she said she'd find out for me.
Find out what?
When I'll be going home.
Can you find out for me?
I will look into it.
Thank you, Dr. Karr.
Hello, SP-32.
No!
SP-32.
- Stay away from me. - It's all right.
No! Let me out of here.
You're safe, SP-32.
That's not my name.
They said I could go home. I just wanna go home.
Set to stun.
What's the situation?
Blasters are not necessary.
I have everything under control.
Don't!
Secure him in his room.
Your actions were extreme, Commander. He's only a child.
The specimen attempted to escape. I was following protocol.
Dr. Karr?
Yes?
Is Jax going to be okay?
Jax?
He'll be fine.
He's not going to be in trouble, is he?
No, he's not in trouble. You can see him tomorrow.
Mistress Se,
I have questions regarding your work on Project Necromancer.
You have taken my place then.
I have.
Which means you've been to the vault
and seen the specimens.
They're children.
Like I was.
Was your plan to discard them too?
The Empire will keep them in order to control them.
They don't belong here.
No, they do not.
But none of this was my choice.
I had to protect Omega.
And what about the other children?
I did what I could.
Now they will look to you.
What will you do, Emerie?
There is nothing I can do.
I don't have that kind of power.
Don't you?
Dr. Karr, a word?
A new specimen will be arriving today.
Commander Scorch is departing shortly to retrieve it.
Another?
I heard about the earlier incident, so I understand your hesitation.
However, this latest acquisition will not be a danger to you.
I would like to accompany the commander.
That is not necessary.
You've stated how important these specimens are, Doctor.
I would like to ensure that they are properly maintained at every stage.
Sir, Governor Tarkin requests you contact him at once.
Do as you wish, Dr. Karr.
Governor Tarkin, to what do I owe this, uh, summons?
Questions have been raised regarding the financial impact
your facility is having upon Imperial resources.
And now additional funds have been diverted at your request?
That is correct. It is for a project that is of personal interest to the Emperor.
Which is what?
Oh, I'm afraid that's classified.
Perhaps there is some assistance I may provide,
seeing this is of such importance?
Mmm, the funding is all I require.
It is worth the expenditure.
You had better hope so.
If this project fails to yield proper results,
it won't bode well for your operation.
Or for you, Doctor.
I require an update.
I tracked down the Trandoshan and pulled some intel out of her.
She gave up the name of a pirate that's been in contact with the target.
I'm searching for her now.
The other operatives aren't ready to join you in the field.
I can handle it on my own.
Can you really? 'Cause you've already failed once.
No more mistakes. Do not return without Omega.
You're not the usual Imperial they send.
I'm here to inspect the specimen. Who I am is none of your concern.
Todo, bring out the kid.
Problem?
This specimen is younger than I expected.
Then he'll be less trouble.
I need to test him.
For confirmation.
My payment?
How many others like this have you captured?
Let's just say I'm good at my job.
And where did this child come from?
Asking questions like that, you give away more than you think.
It's all here, Mr. Bane.
Until next time.
- How is he acclimating? - The specimen is in good health.
- Where is SP-32? - It is standard operating procedure
for a subject to be isolated for two rotations
as punishment following an escape attempt.
Is everything all right, SP-54?
- Eva? - You lied.
You said Jax wouldn't be in trouble.
He just wanted to go home.
We all wanna go home.
