Star Wars Rebels

Tell me what I want to know, bug.

What Imperial secret

was worth the lives of my team,

my friends?

Easy, Saw.

We've all got questions for him.

Saw, he's unarmed.

You know better than anyone,

we can't underestimate these things.

I think he's afraid.

Well, how can you tell?

Let Ezra talk to him.

It's okay. We won't hurt you.

Hmm?

I'm Ezra. What's your name?

Klik-klak, klik-klak.

Yeah, I think I'm just gonna call ya Klik-Klak.

Come on out.

It's okay, Chop.

Klik-Klak,

can you tell us

what the Empire was doing

here on Geonosis?

Circle inside of a circle.

That could be the rings around Geonosis.

I need more than some scratches in the dirt.

Chopper picked up an energy reading in the direction Klik-Klak was going.

Down below somewhere.

Probably a trap.

Another den of battle droids.

Or the answers we're looking for.

We came all this way.

What are you doing?

Aw.

Tracker. I don't want it running off again.

Hey, Saw!

I think this is yours.

Where'd you get that? Give it here!

Uh, you dropped it back there.

Is that your sister?

Steela.

This is all I have left of her.

Back in the Clone War, Saw's sister was killed

by a Separatist gunship.

The Geonosians were Separatists, right?

Yeah, and they created those gunships.

I'm sure the proximity sensor

was triggered by a meteor again.

Scan the quarantine zone for intruders

and let's be on our way.

I don't want to waste any more time

on this desolate rock than I have to.

Captain, I'm detecting life on the surface.

Most likely scavengers.

Deploy recon patrol.

(OVER COMLINK) Zeb, Sabine, I need you up here!

What now?

Imperial light cruiser.

They haven't detected us yet.

We need to get the others back here now,

but I can't raise their comlinks.

They must have gone back into the tunnels for some reason.

If I take a transmitter into the cave,

think I can contact them from there?

Try it, but don't stray too far.

Sabine, you finish locking down the deflector core.

This is where you live?

Some kind of workshop.

He's been maintaining that shield generator and those droids.

Droids he used to ambush us.

Well, all his people were killed,

and we came here with weapons.

Can you blame him for protecting himself?

What else is it protecting?

Huh. Transmitter looks functional.

Maybe we can boost your signal with it.

Chop, give me a hand with this.

Got a lot of stuff here.

No, no, no! That tells me nothing!

Saw, don't. This is his home.

That may be the only answer you're going to get out of him.

It's hiding something.

What have you got in here? A weapon?

Stop!

Saw.

Sonic blaster.

Still think the bug's our friend?

What else you got in there?

That's... That's an egg.

He's just been defending it.

That's what this is all about.

That's what he was trying to draw.

Looks like a queen egg. It's very rare.

That could be the last Geonosian egg left.

(OVER COMLINK) Spectre-4 to Spectre-1.

Can you read me?

Come in, Spectre-1.

Spectre-4, we read you.

Kanan? All right! I got ya!

Hold on. Let me patch you through to Hera.

(OVER COMLINK) Spectre-1, do you read?

Loud and clear. We've found something.

So did we. The Empire is here!

We need you back so we can go.

You too, Spectre-4. On my way!

The tunnel we came in collapsed.

We'll have to find another way out.

What about that giant chasm we crossed?

It goes to the surface.

Maybe we can find a way up.

This thing comes with us, for interrogation.

Well, then who will protect the egg?

If it is a queen,

then it's vital to the survival of his whole race.

Whatever that thing knows is vital to our survival.

Ezra's right.

They don't deserve extinction.

The mission takes priority.

Saw, we had this argument back at command.

Your mission was to find out what happened here.

And I'm gonna make this bug tell me exactly that.

No. If that egg is the last chance to save his people,

then we have to help him protect it.

I know some people in this rebellion don't want to admit it,

but we are in a war, and war is loss.

Okay, but we're taking Klik-Klak and the egg to our base.

After we question him, we'll bring him home.

Agreed.

(OVER COMLINK) Kanan, what's your position?

We're heading back to the central air shaft.

We're in trouble!

Shields just took a major hit.

That ship is a rebel vessel, Captain.

Imperial records identify it as the Ghost from Phoenix Squadron.

The Ghost!

If we destroy that ship,

it would mean a promotion for all of us.

Hurry, Zeb! Move it!

Sabine, I need you in the nose gun, now!

Hey! I only got one barrel!

Thank to that storm, you're gonna have to make do!

Stupid sand. Gets everywhere.

Spectre-1, we took out the Empire's first wave, but they'll send more.

(OVER COMLINK) Ugh. You better come and get us.

Do you still have my signal?

Yeah, I think I see where you're headed.

Gonna be a tight fit.

Strap yourselves in!

Oh, this doesn't look good.

All these tunnels look the same.

You sure Chopper knows where he's going?

He made a map as we went.

Wait. Klik-Klak wants to head down there for some reason.

Maybe this is a shortcut.

We follow the droid.

Our recon units were destroyed,

and we've lost all trace of the rebel vessel on our scopes, Captain.

Pinpoint their last known position and take us down.

Down, Captain?

They've gone underground, and we're going to follow.

There it is!

Saw Gerrera,

this is Hera, Sabine and Zeb.

Phoenix Leader, I'm honored to meet you.

Your actions have not gone unnoticed among the ranks of other rebels.

Neither have yours.

You found a local? It's okay.

That's Klik-Klak.

Is he the only one?

We think so.

Well, that complicates things.

He's our only clue to what the Imperials did here.

I wanna take him with us.

Okay, what does Klik-Klak want to do?
