Quotes 

• The Mandalorian : We have his coordinates.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : You can bring me to Moff Gideon?

  The Mandalorian : The Moff has a light cruiser. It could be helpful in your efforts to restore Mandalore.

  Boba Fett : You gotta be kidding me. Mandalore? The Empire turned that planet to glass.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : You're a disgrace to your armor.

  Boba Fett : This armor belonged to my father.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : Don't you mean your donor?

  Boba Fett : Careful, princess.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : You are a clone. I've heard your voice thousands of times.

  Boba Fett : Mine might be the last one you hear.

• Boba Fett : We don't need these two. Let's get out of here.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : You are not a Mandalorian.

  Boba Fett : Never said I was.

  Koska Reeves : I didn't know sidekicks were allowed to talk.

  Boba Fett : Well, if that isn't the Quacta calling the Stifling slimy. Easy there, little one.

  Koska Reeves : You'll be talking through the window of a bacta tank.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : All right, easy. Save it for the Imps.

• Bo-Katan Kryze : [seeing Mando has captured Moff Gideon]  What happened?

  Cara Dune : He brought him in alive, that's what happened. And now the New Republic's gonna have to double the payment.

  Moff Gideon : That's not what she's talking about. Why don't you kill him now and take it? It's yours now.

  The Mandalorian : What is?

  Moff Gideon : The Darksaber. It belongs to you.

  The Mandalorian : [offering it to Bo-Katan]  Now... it belongs to her.

  Moff Gideon : She can't take it. It must be won in battle. In order for her to wield the Darksaber again, she would need to defeat you in combat.

  The Mandalorian : I yield. It's yours.

  Moff Gideon : Oh, no. It doesn't work that way. The Darksaber doesn't have power. The story does. Without that blade, she's a pretender to the throne.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : He's right.

  The Mandalorian : Come on, just take it.

• The Mandalorian : I need your help.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : Not all Mandalorians are bounty hunters. Some of us serve a higher purpose.

  The Mandalorian : They took the Child.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : Who?

  The Mandalorian : Moff Gideon.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : You'll never find him.

• Boba Fett : Prepare to exit jump space.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : Copy that. Get the hell out of there as soon as they clean us to dock. And your shots have to look convincing.

  Boba Fett : Power up those shields, princess. I'll put on a good show.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : Watch out for those deck cannons.

  Boba Fett : Don't worry about me. Just be careful in there.

• Bo-Katan Kryze : We will help you. In exchange, we will keep that ship to retake Mandalore. If you should manage to finish your quest, I would have you reconsider joining our efforts. Mandalorians have been in exile from our homeworld for far too long.

  The Mandalorian : Fair enough.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : One more thing. Gideon has a weapon that once belonged to me. It is an ancient weapon that can cut through anything.

  Koska Reeves : Almost anything.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : It cannot cut through pure beskar. I will kill the Moff and retake what is rightfully mine. With the Darksaber restored to me, Mandalore will finally be within reach.

  The Mandalorian : Help me rescue the Child, and you can have whatever you want. He is my only priority.

• Cara Dune : [trying to unjam her blaster]  Dank farrik! Son of a mudscuffer!

  Bo-Katan Kryze : Are you sure you don't need any help?

  Cara Dune : [hits the back of her gun on the floor; the gun powers up]  I think that did it. Excuse me.

  [fires at the stormtroopers] 

• [as the dark troopers are try to break down the doors to the bridge, the Mandalorian and his allies prepare for a fight. All of a sudden, an alarm goes off. They turn to see a lone X-wing fighter fly past the cruiser] 

  Bo-Katan Kryze : An X-wing.

  Cara Dune : [sarcastically]  One X-wing? Great. We're saved.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : [activates the comm system]  Incoming craft, identify yourself.

  [the X-wing lands inside the docking bay. Grogu then looks up, as if sensing something. The dark troopers continue to pound at the door, then suddenly stop and turn around] 

  Fennec Shand : Why did they stop?

  [Bo-Katan watches a monitor screen, where a mysterious hooded figure is walking down the hall. The figure is then shown to wield a lightsaber, which they use to dispatch the dark troopers] 

  Bo-Katan Kryze : A Jedi?

  [the Mandalorian looks up at the sound of that name. The Jedi is then shown walking down a walkway, cutting down dark troopers with their green lightsaber or Force-pushing them back. The Jedi then walks inside the cargo hold. They deflect blaster fire from more dark troopers. They use the Force to pin one against the wall with a crate while cutting the other one in half. As the Jedi walks past the first trooper, they slice it across the chest. Moff Gideon, having seen enough, grabs a blaster and fires on Bo-Katan, knocking her to the ground. He then turns the blaster on Grogu, but the Mandalorian dives in front of him, protecting him with his armor] 

  Fennec Shand : [pointing her gun at him]  Drop it!

  [Gideon looks around at everyone pointing blasters at him. He then points his blaster at his chin, intending to kill himself, but Cara knocks it out of his hand then knocks him out. The Jedi cuts down more dark troopers while Grogu reaches toward their image on the monitor screen. The Jedi then enters an elevator heading for the bridge's level. The remaining dark troopers march toward the elevator. After several tense moments, the elevator door opens and the Jedi deflects the blaster fire of the dark troopers and Force-pushes some back. He then uses the Force to crush the last trooper. Grogu watches on a screen, then turns to the Mandalorian, who picks him up] 

  The Mandalorian : Open the doors. I said, open the doors.

  Fennec Shand : Are you crazy?

  [the Mandalorian puts Grogu in a chair and presses a button, opening the door. The Jedi steps through, deactivates their lightsaber and removed their hood, revealing himself to be Luke Skywalker] 

• Bo-Katan Kryze : [breaking up a fight between Koska and Fett]  Enough! Both of you! If we had shown half that spine to the Empire, we would've never lost our planet.

• The Mandalorian : Where is the Child being held?

  Dr. Pershing : This is the brig. He's being held here under armed guard.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : Very well. We split into two parties.

  The Mandalorian : I go alone.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : Fine. Phase one, Lambda shuttle issues a distress call. Two, we come in hot and emergency land at the mouth of the fighter launch tube, cutting off any potential interceptors. Koska, Fennec, Dune, and myself disembark with maximum initiative. Once we've neutralized the launch bay, we make our way through these tandem decks in a penetration maneuver.

  The Mandalorian : And me?

  Bo-Katan Kryze : We'll be misdirection. Once we draw a crowd, you slip through the shadows, get the kid.

  Cara Dune : Those dark troopers are gonna be a real skank in the scud pie.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : Their bay is on the way to the brig. Can he make it there before they deploy?

  Dr. Pershing : It's possible.

  Fennec Shand : [handing Mando a thin cylinder]  Here. Take his code cylinder and seal off their holding bay. Anyone else, we can handle.

  The Mandalorian : We'll meet at the bridge.

• Fennec Shand : The ray shields have been breached. We're being boarded.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : How many life forms?

  Fennec Shand : None.

  Moff Gideon : You're about to face off with the dark troopers. You had your hands full with one. Let's see how you do against a platoon.

• Koska Reeves : [scanning the walkway]  All clear.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : A little too clear.

• Bo-Katan Kryze : [after taking the bridge]  Where's Gideon?

• Bo-Katan Kryze : Moff Gideon is mine. Got it?

  Cara Dune : He's ex-ISB. He's got a lot of information. I need him alive.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : I don't care what happens to him as long as he surrenders to me.

• Bo-Katan Kryze : This is Moff Gideon's Imperial light cruiser. In the old days, it would carry a crew of several hundred. Now it operates with a tiny fraction of that.

  Dr. Pershing : Your assessment is misleading.

  Cara Dune : Oh, great. An objective opinion.

  Dr. Pershing : This isn't subterfuge, I assure you.

  Bo-Katan Kryze : Let him speak.

  Dr. Pershing : There's a garrison of dark troopers on board. They're the ones who abducted the Child.

  The Mandalorian : How many troopers do they have armed in those suits?

  Dr. Pershing : These are third-generation design. They are no longer suits. The human inside was the final weakness to be solved. They're droids.

  Fennec Shand : Where are they bivouacked?

  Dr. Pershing : They're held in cold storage in this cargo bay. They draw too much power to be kept at ready.

  Fennec Shand : How long to power up?

  Dr. Pershing : A few minutes, perhaps.
