Star Wars Rebels

How's he taking it?

As you'd expect.

We both knew Ezra might not get the news he hoped he would about his parents.

Governor Azadi, we're grateful you stood by them for so long.

Not sure what good it did.

Things don't seem any better here on Lothal.

At the moment, maybe, but we hope to change that in the future.

Speaking of which, Senator Organa heard about our losses on Garel.

He's sending us reinforcements.

His agent is coming to Lothal with three cruisers.

Three cruisers? That is good news.

Maybe a mission like this is just what Ezra needs.

I hope you're right. We'll be there as soon as we can to help.

Sir, three unidentified starships have just entered our sector.

Launch fighters to intercept.

Open a channel.

Attention. This is Lieutenant Lyste.

Lothal is now a restricted system by order of the Emperor.

Identify yourselves immediately.

Greetings, Lieutenant. We come bearing relief supplies for the citizens of Lothal.

Our mission is sanctioned by the Imperial Senate.

I wasn't informed of your visit,

nor do you have a landing permit.

Permit's coming through now, sir. They're from Alderaan.

Another meddling delegation from Alderaan.

I'll handle this personally.

Attention, senatorial convoy.

Your landing has been granted,

and fighters will escort you to the Jalath City Depot for processing.

I'll see you there.

This is Princess Leia Organa.

I look forward to it, Lieutenant. End transmission.

Well, there's no turning back now.

Ezra, we're gonna miss our rendezvous. Let's go.

If you're going into Jalath City, be careful.

The fleet may be gone, but Imperial security is bound to recognize you.

Maybe dressed like this.

But who's gonna notice an extra stormtrooper and cadet?

Great.

They know our ship, too. Ryder, any chance we could...

Borrow my bike? Take it.

But I'm not getting involved any further.

Even after what the Empire did to you?

Come on, get back in the fight.

I won't go back to prison, Kanan.

Please don't ask that of me.

Those are our reinforcements? Some old transports?

In our position, you take what you can get, kid.

Hey, excuse me, miss. Uh, where's your commander?

Not much of a welcoming committee.

Trooper?

I'm Kanan. This is Ezra. We're from Phoenix Squadron.

I know who you are.

And unless you want the deck officer to know, too,

I suggest you put your helmets back on and keep your mouths shut.

Excuse me?

You heard her. Shut it.

Deck Officer, I'd like to start distributing my relief aid.

Stand by. My orders are to inspect the cargo for contraband,

and detain these vessels until the lieutenant arrives.

Scanning crew, move out.

Well, this plan's off to a good start.

As a matter of fact, it's going perfectly.

Where's the rest of your team? They'll be here, eventually.

Good. Then you can steal my ships.

What? What?

I'll explain later. First I have to deal with the lieutenant.

Follow my lead and try and keep up. Wait.

Wait. Why does she get to give orders? I don't get to give orders.

Do you ever listen to yourself?

Yes, and I happen to be very interesting.

You must be Leia Organa,

princess of the royal house of Alderaan.

And aide to my father, Senator Bail Organa.

I come with relief supplies for Lothal's needy,

who are suffering terribly as a result of the rebel insurgency here.

Surely you don't want innocents to starve.

No, of course not.

Lothal has indeed suffered, as has Alderaan.

From what I hear, your ships have an unfortunate habit of falling into rebel hands.

I assure you, that won't happen on my watch.

What's that?

Gravity locks? This is hardly necessary.

I insist.

Plus a trooper detachment, and for extra security...

Walkers will guard your ships from the rebel insurgency.

All for your safety, miss.

It's "Your Highness."

As my ships are detained, I will require your shuttle to begin my work.

Oh? Um, my shuttle?

Certainly I could arrange for other transportation.

No. Your shuttle.

I need to leave immediately.

You two, bring those supplies and escort me to the trauma area at once.

Yes, ma'am. Right away.

I hate to say it, but whoever came up with this plan

severely underestimated the Empire's security.

I'm sorry. Don't be.

It's not your fault.

Yes, it is. This was my plan.

We need those ships.

Why didn't you just hand them off to us in deep space?

You don't understand. It's not that simple.

If the Empire could prove Alderaan provided ships to the rebels,

we'd lose our seat in the Senate and be charged with treason.

But if they're stolen on a planet controlled by the Empire...

Alderaan would be blameless.

Have to admit, that was a good plan.

Well, now we need a new one.

Yeah, what is it, Chopper?

Stormtroopers?

Friends of yours?

Not for much longer, by the look of things.

What are we going to do?

This time, you follow my lead.

This is a secure site. State your business.

I'm taking the princess ambassador here on a scouting mission

for possible refugee relocation.

This is not a safe area for you.

There's a high level of rebel activity happening at the moment.

Well, we're finishing our survey.

We could take these prisoners back to Jalath for you.

That won't be necessary. We have orders to terminate one of them immediately.

Hold on, trooper. As a representative of the Senate,

I demand to know what this man has done.

He's a fugitive from an Imperial prison.

Now, depart immediately for your own safety.

Where you find one rebel, there are usually more.

Chopper's receiving a signal.

You know what that means. Hera's here.

More friends of yours? Yeah, I'm a likable guy.

You're coming with me!

No, you can't come on board!

You have to go get the Phantom. Get moving!

Your friends might shoot you wearing that armor.

That's not a bad idea, Governor.

Take the princess hostage. What?

If I'm seen escaping with you, I'll be labeled a traitor.

You have to take me prisoner.

Well, you better make it look good. I'll warn Sabine.

We got two incoming.

What about Ezra and Kanan? They're the troopers on the left.

Help! Help! Commander!

Hold your fire! She's my responsibility! I'll get her back!

Kanan's coming. He said to make it look good.

No, Zeb, wait! Easy! That's Kanan!

I know. (CHUCKLES)

They're taking prisoners? They do that now?

Kanan. Wake up!

Kanan! How's your face?

Why did you hit me?

What? You had a helmet on.

Did you have to hit us so hard?

Hey, you wanted it to look good.

Where's the princess?

In the cockpit with Hera.

We've completed our search of the transports and found no contraband.
