Star Wars: The Bad Batch (2021) s02e06 Episode Script

Tribe

Cid said the Vanguard Axis
is notorious for illegal smuggling.
So be ready for anything.
We'll make the delivery.
Echo, Omega. Guard the ship.
Proceed.
You have the forgeries?
- We need to ascertain their viability.
- That will not be necessary.
I created these chain codes myself.
They will fool the Empire.
Your assurance is meaningless.
Check each one.
There's something off about this place.
- I don't like it.
- Yeah. Me neither.
But we're not staying for long.
I'll prep the ship.
- Stop! You're hurting him!
- Halt, humanoid.
Do not interfere
with Vanguard Axis business.
No!
More are coming. Hurry!
Halt.
Not that way.
What are you doing?
You need to go before they find you.
Omega, let's get back to the ship.
It's okay. He's a friend.
Wait!
Those droids are after him.
Come on!
We have a situation.
Problem?
The cause of that blaster
fire is either Echo or Omega.
Most likely Omega.
Hunter, we need backup now.
What sort of treachery is this?
Stay back!
They're with us.
I would advise you to take your soldiers
and extricate yourselves
from the situation.
- No! They're going to hurt him.
- Oh, on the contrary.
The Wookiee is worth
a great deal to our buyer.
Alive.
You can't smuggle living beings.
For the right price,
I can do whatever I want.
Now stand down or be destroyed.
- Get to the ship!
- Come on!
This way!
Hurry!
Why is he sitting back there alone?
Because he's scared.
He's been through a lot.
Well, he still needs to eat.
Here. You look hungry.
- What's wrong?
- He doesn't trust us.
Well, seeing how all clones
were given an order to execute the Jedi,
he has good reason to be cautious.
I'm sorry about what happened.
But we are not like the other clones.
We did not follow that order.
And we don't work for the Empire either.
Hunter's telling the truth.
You don't have to be afraid of us.
It's okay. Eat.
I'm Omega. What's your name?
My Wookiee is a little rusty,
but I think he says his name
is Gungi.
You catch that?
He's been on the run
since Order 66,
and was attempting to reach
the Wookiee homeworld of Kashyyyk
before he was captured
by those smuggling droids.
I'm not sure how you survived
this long on your own,
but it's impressive.
If he's trying to get to his homeworld,
we can take him.
Been a while since we've been to Kashyyyk.
The Empire could have
outposts there by now.
We don't know if it's safe for him there.
He's a Jedi.
He's not safe anywhere.
We're heading to a village we know of.
The Wookiees there
should be able to help you.
I've locked into the coordinates.
But I'm picking up
heavy smoke and deforestation.
Keep an eye out for Imperial outposts.
Oh, and kid.
Keep that laser sword hidden.
It, uh, draws attention we don't want.
Do you remember anything
about this planet?
- What did he say?
- From his dreams.
Here. I'll take care of it.
Whoa! Oh.
They're swarming us.
Hold your fire.
He says, "They will not attack
unless we pose a threat."
According to my telemetry,
the village is straight ahead.
Tanks came through here.
The Empire incinerated
the entire village.
The Empire destroyed our home too.
Don't worry.
We'll find your people.
What do you see?
Trandoshans.
And they have a Wookiee hostage.
How did they get
their hands on Imperial tanks?
Commander Venomor, we've found
more of those carved stones.
Stay on schedule.
Blast them to dust.
Hunter, Gungi.
Oh, no.
This one must have a death wish.
We need to stop the flames
from spreading.
Start digging.
More Trandoshans?
No. Something bigger.
Her name is Yanna.
She appears to be leading them.
We are returning him
to his homeworld.
But he doesn't know
what village he's from.
We were soldiers of the Republic.
But let's just say we don't
see eye-to-eye with the Empire.
We came because Gungi was in trouble.
Jedi or not, he's still a child.
He needs his people.
What do we have here?
Lightsaber marks.
A surviving Jedi?
We need to notify Imperial command.
Not if I find the Jedi first.
Raze the jungle to its roots.
A hundred Wookiee pelts
to whoever finds the Jedi.
- Uh, no, thanks.
- You don't know what you're missing.
Yanna's agreed
to let Gungi stay with them.
What about the Trandoshans?
The Empire's been using them
to strip the planet's resources.
Many of the villagers have fled deeper
into the jungle.
Yanna's scouts are reporting
a large convoy headed in this direction.
She says to leave.
Hunter,
the Wookiees were our allies for years.
We have to do something.
We'll stay and help you fight them.
You don't have to do this alone.
- What are they doing?
- They are asking the trees for help.
They're talking to the trees?
They believe
this planet belongs to the trees.
And they are allies in this fight.
We'll take all the allies we can get.
Wrecker, found 'em.
The Trandoshan convoy's closing in.
The trees have a plan?
All right.
Whatever they say.
The tracks have broken off.
- There's no trace of them.
- They can't run far.
Ambush!
Crush them!
Take what's left as trophies.
Stick to the plan.
Draw them into the nest.
Jedi.
Guess the trees
knew what they were doing.
Where did the kids go?
Gungi!
The fire!
It's spreading too fast!
Tech, gather all the Wookiees.
You know, I could get used to this.
Hmm. Not bad.
They're both just kids.
But they don't get to be.
Not in this galaxy.
"When a
young one leaves, the trees weep.
But when they return, the trees sing."
"As this child has found his new home,
perhaps, one day,
we all will find a new path."
Hopefully
one far away from war.
