Jedi trapped on Felucia
Clones are surrounded by droid forces
Their only hope is to escape on Republic gunships
waiting to land on the embattled surface
Jedi cruisers have managed to blow a hole in the droid defenses
and have sent gunships to the rescue
Warthog, protect the gunships
I will take out the fighters
They made it through the 1st wave
Concentrate all fire on the cruiser on the left
I can't shake these two droids
Come around and I'll try to get them off your tail
General
Look out
- That was close - If those fighters got through
then our gunships can't be far behind
Prepare the troops to evacuate
Go Go
Come on, Grunts We are leaving
Ahsoka should be back from her jungle patrol by now
I'll try to contact her again Ahsoka, where are you?
Ahsoka, what is your location?
About six klicks east, Master
We've engaged the enemy and we've got them on the run
They're here to extract us We're leaving
What?
We can't retreat now, Master
I've broken through
Move it, trooper Come on, double time
The droids are retreating
We're outnumbered You must evacuate That is an order
Master Skywalker taught me never to let up
- when the tinnies are on the run - They are running back here
to regroup with the main force
You are putting your troops' lives in danger, young one
You will get on the gunship when we arrive
- Where's Ahsoka? - Following your teachings
- Is she winning? - For now
- She's not stopping - Land in front of them
What are you doing?
Get in the ship, now
Can't you see they're retreating?
They're about to overrun you, Ahsoka You just can't see it
Now follow orders and get in the ship
Padawan Ahsoka
do you feel Master Kenobi's description of the incident is accurate?
Yes, my Masters
More to add, do you?
I know I was wrong
I just got so caught up in my own success
I didn't look at the battle as a whole
I wasn't being disobedient I just
forgot
Masters this incident is my responsibility
Because of Ahsoka's advanced abilities I forgot how young she is
I gave her more freedom than I should have
That may be
but it doesn't excuse what happened on Felucia
I think she needs some time away from the battlefield
On archive security
reflect on your actions you can Padawan
Guard duty?
For how long?
Longer now
I'm sorry
- I let you down - I know
I was a Padawan not that long ago
Madame Jocasta Nu
this is Ahsoka Tano
She is to be your new security officer
Hello, Madame
So good to meet you
Let's show you around
There is more knowledge here
than anywhere else in the galaxy
Master Kenobi says there are even texts here
that are forbidden to be read
The archives hold a great many secrets
it is true
Beyond this door lies the holocron vault
The holocrons contain
the most closely guarded secrets of the Jedi Order
Good morning, Master Fisto
Can we go inside?
I'm afraid not, my dear
I haven't been inside myself for years
Only members of the Jedi Council are allowed access
Guarding the holocrons is one of the most important duties
a Jedi can be given, Ahsoka
- Do you think you're up to the task? - Definitely
Excuse the interruption
As I was saying bounty hunter
I have need of your services
I'm listening
I need a Jedi holocron
To get a holocron I'd have to break into the Jedi Temple
It's impossible
not to mention deadly
Perhaps your reputation has been exaggerated
I want a rogue-class starfighter
with elite weapons cloaking device, the works
And triple my usual rate
Your price is of no concern
I will also provide you with the means
to get inside the temple
You've got a deal
The setback at Felucia has affected our efforts in the whole sector
It'll take weeks before we can
Master Yoda, what is it?
A disturbance in the Force
Intruders there will be in this temple
You know, if you would just tell me what it is you're doing back there,
I could probably be of some assistance
Look, I am just doing some maintenance
You've been having memory crashes
That is preposterous I have no memory of any crashes
My goodness I have no memory of any crashes
Exactly
I am doomed
- Bane, you have to help me - Calm down
I'm done
- Thank you - Get the door
I am a techno-service droid, not a butler droid
Can it, Todo You are what I say you are
Well Then
Who are you?
I am Todo 360, techno-service droid
- Who are you? - None of your business
Everyone is in a good mood today
Who's that?
Bolla Ropal,
Jedi, out in the Mid Rim
We going after him?
Soon
Right now, we're stealing a holocron
Impossible
The only place you can get a holocron is
I know
Inside the main vaults of the Jedi Temple
Fortunately, our Sith Lord client has set us up with some help
For one, the map of the temple you're looking at right now
For another, a security chip that I've placed in my droid
I have been given all the technical data
regarding security systems in the Jedi Temple
Both the vent shafts and the vault itself
are equipped with all kinds of traps and security measures
Todo can take them out,
but we'll need help from someone inside the Jedi library
And that's where your talents as a changeling will come in
He looks like a Jedi
He was
His name was Ord Enisence
You should be able to walk into the archives
and monitor us without a problem
Now that I am a Jedi
I can do that
Good
You will need these
They're ear comlinks so we can keep in communication
The vault is in the library,which backs onto the communications center
There will be swarms of Jedi nearby
We'll use that to our advantage
Even if you get into the vault,
how are you going to crack that safe?
Let me worry about the safe
First things first
Where do we start looking for these intruders? What could they be after?
I doubt they've come to hijack starfighters
What can they get here they can't get anywhere else?
- Information - The Jedi transmitter codes
Every piece of troop information, in one place
And it's all in the east tower
- The east tower communications center - I'll head there right away
I'll monitor the perimeter defenses from the central security station
Good afternoon, Master Enisence
Good afternoon, young one
May I be of assistance?
No, thank you, my dear
I don't want to bother you
It wouldn't be a bother at all, Master
- Things are slow right now - I could use something to do
Cato, come in
Cato, are you there yet?
Cato, come in
Thank you
I'll be fine on my own
You sure?
Look, youngling I said I was fine
Now let me go about my business
Can't do anything right these days
I'm in
It's about time
Just tell us where to get in
There's a weak point in the shield that Todo should be able to break through
I'm beaming him the coordinates now
Okay, I have got it
I will jam the temple's scanners
Let's see It is around here somewhere
There
- In - You're welcome
What was that?
The system is just recycling, sir
Master, I'm in the tower
No intruders, but something just happened
All the scanners were behaving strangely for a moment
Something happened to the system down here too
It cannot be a coincidence
Arrived, the intruders have
But if they are not in the tower, what are they after?
The communications center, perhaps, their target is
They must be in the central ventilation system
Let me check the system
You're right: there has been a disturbance
It's near the top of the south tower
I'll meet you up there
On high alert place the temple
The control board for the fan should be on your left
All clear, sir
Not quite
The fan you're passing through has a security switch
I do not see anything
Besides, we have already gotten past the fan
Todo, we're getting sucked into the fan
- Turn it off - I do not know how
- Cato, do something - I've got it from here
Sorry
Okay, Bane, the next part is relatively simple
Make your way down the shaft until you reach
Excuse me
I don't mean to disturb you,
but the whole temple is on high alert
Thank you
This is it
Perfect Let's go in
Cato, come in
We are over the vault
Give me a moment to check out the security system
What's wrong with your voice?
Change of plans
I'm the librarian now
Hurry it up, Cato
We can't stay hidden for long
Well, looks like this is where they broke in
Fortunately, we'll have a less troublesome time
The vault is filled with laser sensors that go in every direction
I'll try to deactivate the whole system from here
Just hurry I can hear them
They're looking for us in the vent system
Great Which way do you think they went?
The communications center is this way
We'd better hurry if we're going to catch them
The Jedi are coming closer
I've got it Go in
I don't think they came this way
Master Yoda, are you picking up any other life signs in this quadrant?
Deep in the temple, the intruders are
How are they managing to stay out of our way?
Possible it is, receiving assistance they are,
from inside
Wonderful
Almost there
Are you done deactivating those laser beams yet?
- We are good to go - Good
Start cutting through that wall
This job just keeps getting weirder and weirder
Padawan, alert you must be
Sense deception, I do
Posing as a Jedi, the intruder is
Find Master Jocasta, you must
The two Jedi have turned around
and are making their way towards you
Who are you,
and what have you done with madame Jocasta?
The same thing I'm going to do to you
You may have madame Jocasta's shape, but not her skills
- Todo, are you done yet? - These things take time
Some butler droid you turned out to be
I am a techno-service droid
Looks like you were right
Master Skywalker, I've captured the imposter disguised as a Jedi
She says the intruder's in the holocron vault
A holocron is no good without a Jedi to open it
- What are they up to? - They must be trying to gain access
to the communications center from the vault
Let's get in
I am not going to be able to do this without a diagram
Cato, come in
- What has happened? - Something's gone wrong
Todo, is the hole finished?
- Yes, but - Go to the communications center
- What? - You heard me
Bane, the communications center will be crawling with Jedi
- Why do I need to go in there? - Now
Quick The communications center Let's go
Hey, guys
I was just,
testing the access hatch
Works great
- Bomb - Bomb? What bomb?
Is there something going to blow up?
Bomb
Madame librarian, are you okay?
I think I'm all right
We must call security
Our war operations, it was never about
Come on, changeling We have a new home for you
What would someone want with a holocron?
Wait
Bolla Ropal
What did you say?
That's who Bane's next target is
Some Jedi
What's wrong? Who's Bolla Ropal?
He is the keeper of the Kyber crystal,
the data on which can only be read by holocrons
What's on the crystal?
A list of every known force-sensitive child in the galaxy
The future younglings The future of the Jedi Order
We have to warn him
That's going to be hard to do
He's out of contact, somewhere in the Devaron system
Seek him out, you must
Ahsoka and I will set out immediately
If this Cad Bane is still here on Coruscant,
I'll find him
Stolen secrets
Villainous mercenary Cad Bane was hired
by Darth Sidious
to steal a holocron from the vaults of the Jedi Temple
After fleeing the scene of the crime,
Bane hunted down and captured Master Bolla Ropal,
who has a crystal which holds secrets of the Jedi Order
As a separatist fleet arrives to help the bounty hunter,
Anakin Skywalker races in to cut off their escape and stop Bane
from delivering the stolen holocron
I guess we're going down with the ship
Roger, roger
General, we're receiving an urgent transmission from the planet
General Skywalker, our base has been overrun
There's no possibility of evacuation
They've taken General Ropal and the holocron memory crystal
Do you know where they've taken them?
Sorry, sir
We tried to stop them, but they left the outpost
Wait a second There's too much interference
Transmitter's been destroyed at the source, sir
We have to find out what ship Master Ropal was on
You will remain conscious, Master Jedi
The bounty hunter has some questions for you
Attach mind limiters, pain pulsers,
and give him a full dose of X-C33
Right away, sir
Sir, that Republic ship
has destroyed our escort and is blocking our escape
Whoever's commanding that cruiser is a bold one
Move us out of the battle zone and prepare to jump to hyperspace
I have a small favor to ask our Jedi guest
General, a separatist command ship is fleeing the battle
You think they have Master Ropal on board as a prisoner?
I'm sure of it
Admiral, intercept them before they can jump to hyperspace
- I'll ready the troops for boarding - Boarding?
We have no boarding craft
We were prepared to land on the planet, not to board another ship
You can't be serious
I am, Admiral Thank you for your opinion
Now, target their hyperdrive We don't want them getting away
Sir Captain Sir
They hit the power converters, so we can't go into hyperspace
I wonder what the Jedi are planning
I've rounded up three brigades, sir Where are we going?
We're going to board a separatist frigate,
rescue Master Ropal, and recover an archive holocron
We have no assault craft, sir,
only a couple of fighters and the twilight
Waiting for orders
And the plan is?
Just curious
I came down to see if I could be of any help,
General Skywalker
Actually, you can
Activate those walkers, Admiral
You're not thinking of using those
to transport the clones to that frigate
Well, they are pressurized
And they're equipped with magnetic feet
- Good call - Master,
you're a genius
Those walkers designed for terrain, not space
Rex, load them up
Let's go, snips
Execute battalion, take AT-AT 300
Carnivore battalion, walker 773 Let's go
Simply open this little box of yours
so I can get the information from this crystal,
and your suffering will come to an end
You will never get me
to unlock the holocron
Unfortunately, I don't have time to discuss this with you
Hit him again Full power
I'm not sure how much more of this he can take
Are you a medical droid?
Then step back and shut up
- Roger, roger - More power
We've lost all his vital signs
Check
He is no longer functioning
Drop him
He's dead
Looks like we will have to find another Jedi to open this Holocron
Only next time, I will try a different method
When Darth Sidious asked me to loan you the federation fleet,
he didn't say you were going to war
You have already lost four of my ships
I hope you can pay for all of this
One authentic Jedi Holocron and the memory crystal I was after
When my benefactor gets this,
he will compensate you for your puny fleet
Sounds like the Jedi want it back
The Jedi are overwhelming our vulture droids
Should we send out reinforcements?
What are you doing?
Did you say, "No?"
Roger, roger
The Jedi will board the ship and get the holocron back
Transmit the information and close the deal immediately
I can't
Only a Jedi can access the device
Fortunately,
there are two Jedi on their way to help me,
one more than we need for our purposes
You'd better live through this
I want my money, Bane
You can count on it
Wipe all the frigate's memory banks and destroy every record of our mission
Initiate the self-destruct sequence
You, transfer all ship functions to my wrist-com
I want control of doors, gravity generators, everything
The rest of you, stay here and defend the bridge
We're defending the bridge alone?
Against the Jedi?
I hate this job
Don't shoot I'm not the Commander He's the Commander
Guess I'm the Commander now
R2, see if you can find Master Ropal
One authentic Jedi Holocron and the memory crystal I was after
He has both pieces now
Rex, send a squad
Lock down the hangar bay and destroy all the escape pods
- No one gets off this ship - Yes, sir
R2, you have to find Master Ropal Hurry
What was that?
One of the engines on that frigate has exploded
I caution you to avoid the AFT section
- How much damage is there? - I suggest immediate evacuation
Not until we get what we came for
Spread out
While you take on the clones, I will separate the Jedi
and lead one of them away
Master, I found him
Rex, have some men take Master Ropal back to the Resolute
We might not be able to find the holocron in time, Master
But if it's destroyed with the ship, Nute Gunray won't get it either
Maybe,
but I'd rather return it to the library personally
Come on, R2
R2 says we're close
Stay sharp
Switch to night vision
There
Welcome, Jedi We've been expecting you
Kill them
Let's make this a bit more interesting
Lock down
Magnetics You were trained for this
Turn the gravity generators back on
Check your fire
Hit one of those shells, and this fight is over for all of us
I'll get him, Master
Ahsoka, wait
It's a trap
Ahsoka, wait We'll take him together
You thought you could get away?
You're not much of a challenge
I got you right where I want you
I'm not impressed
Can you hear me? Are you all right in there?
I'm all right Get back to the hangar
Find a transport, but wait for us as long as you can
- We're on it, sir - Ahsoka, do you copy?
There's a power surge heading toward the bridge
If you're there, get out immediately You must abandon your mission
I don't have the holocron memory,
and I seem to have misplaced my Padawan
The ship is tearing itself apart
Move off to a safe distance, Admiral, and await my signal for evacuation
Of all the Jedi, why did I have to end up with Skywalker?
I wouldn't do that
Those binders have been specially designed for Jedi
The more you struggle, the tighter they get
Impressed now, youngling ?
Not really
Enjoy this while you can, sleemo
This burning boat is about to finish us both off
We have time
The bond between a Jedi teacher and his apprentice is strong
Which means my Master will be coming for me any minute
Let's see if we can get him here any faster
- You said we'd be safe back here - Come on
There's three of us and only one of him
It won't matter
Sir, a Jedi is coming
He looks very unhappy
Your Master has gotten the message
You have nowhere left to run, bounty hunter
Let me worry about that, Jedi
If I activate this control, the outside air lock will open,
and she will be sucked into oblivion
Do you think you can kill me and then save her
before she's pulled out into space?
It's a horrible way to die
Besides, isn't negotiation the Jedi way?
- What do you want? - This holocron
carries information I've been paid to collect
I can't unlock it, but you can
The last Jedi who had it wouldn't open it
I hope you don't make the same mistake
We don't have much time
Hurry up, Jedi, or she dies
No, Master Don't do it
I can't let you die, Ahsoka
Master, no
We'll deal with the holocron later
How touching
All units, make for that shuttle
Captain, the main reactor is exposed It will implode at any moment
Yes, sir We're trying to make our way to the shuttle now
- Get out of there - Sir, yes, sir
You two find the General and help him This frigate's not going to last
- We have to get out of here - Yes, sir
Come about We need to put some distance between us and that frigate
Now I will combine this holocron
with the memory crystal I acquired from your dead Jedi friend
My employers will be most pleased
Did the Jedi cooperate with you?
With some encouragement
I have access to the holocron
and all the information the memory contains
I only have to get off this ship
Maybe you should transmit it to me now
Then I could send another ship for you
No, thanks, Viceroy
I have a plan for my own escape
Hold it right there
You're not going anywhere, bounty hunter
I hope you found us a ride off this bucket
We've got to leave now The reactor's gonna blow
- We cannot wait - You'll have to
I'm going after that bounty hunter
Master, wait Stop
This is the way to the hangar We must get off the ship now
- I can't let Bane get away - Patience, Master
Patience
You're right
Come on, Come on
Trooper, did you get the holocron?
- No, sir - I'll get it, Master
No time Rex, get us out of here
It looks like the holocron was destroyed,
but at least the Separatists didn't get it
Bane's dead, but I can still feel him
Master
I'm sorry I let that mercenary get the upper hand
It wasn't your fault, Ahsoka
It was mine, start to finish
So
did you manage to recover the holocron
or capture the bounty hunter?
I see
So the mission was your usual version of success, then?
If by success, you mean I won, then yes
