1
00:01:01,208 --> 00:01:08,000
The entire galaxy believes Rampart's lies,
even the Senate. It's not right.

2
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:12,250
Well, there's nothing
we can do about it. Let it go.

3
00:01:12,250 --> 00:01:18,041
How can I? Kamino was our home,
and we destroyed it.

4
00:01:18,041 --> 00:01:24,708
All those cities, all those people,
gone, because of what we did.

5
00:01:24,708 --> 00:01:27,333
We were following orders.

6
00:01:27,333 --> 00:01:33,500
Oh, were we? Then--
Then why is Rampart covering it up, huh?

7
00:01:35,250 --> 00:01:39,666
I'm sorry, Slip.
I can't stay silent any longer.

8
00:01:40,791 --> 00:01:43,416
Wait. What did you do?

9
00:01:44,791 --> 00:01:46,875
I sent a message to Rampart.

10
00:01:47,583 --> 00:01:53,541
Gave him the chance to tell the Senate
the truth before I did it myself.

11
00:02:21,500 --> 00:02:23,666
Cade! Cade, stop!

12
00:02:25,208 --> 00:02:29,958
You know what Rampart's capable of.
It's too dangerous.

13
00:02:29,958 --> 00:02:36,791
Slip, we're not bad men,
but what we did was wrong.

14
00:02:37,500 --> 00:02:41,208
Please, I need your help.
Together we can--

15
00:03:39,333 --> 00:03:40,916
Secure the perimeter.

16
00:04:00,791 --> 00:04:05,375
While the cataclysmic storm
on Kamino was tragic,

17
00:04:05,375 --> 00:04:12,208
the reality is that without the production
of new clone troopers, we are vulnerable.

18
00:04:12,208 --> 00:04:18,791
Admiral Rampart's proposed Defense
Recruitment Bill will keep us protected.

19
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:25,666
I concur with the honorable delegate
of the Banking Clan.

20
00:04:25,666 --> 00:04:29,875
A new conscripted military
is what this galaxy needs.

21
00:04:29,875 --> 00:04:34,458
One comprised of the people,
who fight for the people.

22
00:04:34,458 --> 00:04:38,166
This recruitment bill has been
discussed, debated,

23
00:04:38,166 --> 00:04:41,416
and tabled each session for a reason.

24
00:04:41,416 --> 00:04:44,208
There are more pressing matters
in the galaxy right now

25
00:04:44,208 --> 00:04:47,458
than the costly creation
of a new military.

26
00:04:47,458 --> 00:04:49,000
The war is over.

27
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:52,208
Perhaps where you reside, Senator Pamlo.

28
00:04:52,208 --> 00:04:56,208
But the Mid and Outer Rims are rife
with insurgents.

29
00:04:56,208 --> 00:04:57,875
We must be protected.

30
00:04:59,250 --> 00:05:04,083
The deployment of the clone army was
a result of the Emergency Powers Act,

31
00:05:04,083 --> 00:05:10,166
put forward by then Chancellor Palpatine
during the Separatist crisis.

32
00:05:10,166 --> 00:05:13,875
Shifting to a military
of citizens swearing loyalty

33
00:05:13,875 --> 00:05:17,833
fundamentally goes against
the principles of this body.

34
00:05:17,833 --> 00:05:23,666
I strongly disagree, Senator Organa.

35
00:05:24,416 --> 00:05:27,041
Where does the Emperor stand
on this issue,

36
00:05:27,041 --> 00:05:30,291
since he remains absent
from these proceedings?

37
00:05:32,416 --> 00:05:37,875
The Emperor, as always, trusts this
delegation to act in the best interests

38
00:05:37,875 --> 00:05:40,416
of all galactic citizens.

39
00:05:40,416 --> 00:05:43,416
And what about the interests
of the clone troopers?

40
00:05:43,416 --> 00:05:46,125
Why are they not included
within this legislation?

41
00:05:47,333 --> 00:05:52,833
The clone army cannot sustain
given their accelerated aging

42
00:05:52,833 --> 00:05:55,708
and should be slated for decommissioning.

43
00:05:56,291 --> 00:05:59,166
They are not droids
to simply be shut down.

44
00:05:59,166 --> 00:06:03,125
These are soldiers who defended us,
defended our worlds.

45
00:06:03,125 --> 00:06:10,083
Mmm, I didn't realize you spoke
on the clones' behalf, Senator Chuchi.

46
00:06:10,083 --> 00:06:12,541
If we don't, who will?

47
00:06:13,125 --> 00:06:16,583
After all they have sacrificed,
you now wish to discard them?

48
00:06:16,583 --> 00:06:18,000
Leave them with nothing?

49
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,750
Is that how we repay them
for their service?

50
00:06:21,833 --> 00:06:24,750
Is that what this Empire stands for?

51
00:06:25,250 --> 00:06:28,125
How can we debate commissioning a new army

52
00:06:28,125 --> 00:06:30,875
without a plan in place
to care for our current one?

53
00:06:38,333 --> 00:06:40,833
I hear your concerns, Senator Chuchi.

54
00:06:41,416 --> 00:06:44,750
Allow me to assure this delegation
that provisions are in place

55
00:06:44,750 --> 00:06:47,833
to aid the clones
as they begin to be phased out.

56
00:06:48,333 --> 00:06:52,375
What do you know about their needs,
Admiral? Have you asked them?

57
00:06:53,625 --> 00:06:55,833
Or do they not get a say in their future?

58
00:06:56,416 --> 00:06:59,833
I am open to discussing
any and all provisions you,

59
00:06:59,833 --> 00:07:01,625
or the clones, have in mind.

60
00:07:02,833 --> 00:07:07,083
If we work together, I am confident
we can adequately address their concerns.

61
00:07:09,208 --> 00:07:15,583
Well, until then, I motion to table
the vote on the Defense Recruitment Bill.

62
00:07:15,583 --> 00:07:17,000
I second.

63
00:07:33,041 --> 00:07:36,083
Governor Tarkin assured me
you were capable of getting the Senate

64
00:07:36,083 --> 00:07:37,708
to support this bill.

65
00:07:38,208 --> 00:07:41,666
I am not the one who will suffer
if it doesn't pass.

66
00:07:42,166 --> 00:07:46,500
It will.
A few vocal senators will not derail us.

67
00:07:46,500 --> 00:07:48,708
They already have.

68
00:07:48,708 --> 00:07:54,375
If any of them begin to dig further
into what truly happened to Kamino,

69
00:07:54,375 --> 00:07:57,416
then this legislation is at risk.

70
00:07:57,416 --> 00:07:59,708
And so are you.

71
00:08:00,500 --> 00:08:03,750
I have measures in place
to ensure that doesn't happen.

72
00:08:04,250 --> 00:08:06,833
Let Senator Chuchi make her demands
for the clones.

73
00:08:07,416 --> 00:08:10,500
Once she's appeased, the Defense
Recruitment Bill will be approved

74
00:08:10,500 --> 00:08:13,833
long before any of the provisions
she's seeking come due.

75
00:08:14,333 --> 00:08:19,250
For your sake, Admiral,
be certain there are no more surprises.

76
00:08:29,250 --> 00:08:32,958
So, that's it? We served our purpose
and now they want us out?

77
00:08:32,958 --> 00:08:36,833
That's why I'm here,
to better understand your needs.

78
00:08:36,833 --> 00:08:41,291
I need to stay a trooper.
Can you make that happen?

79
00:08:41,291 --> 00:08:45,916
Well, no, but once a clone
has completed the required rotations--

80
00:08:45,916 --> 00:08:48,708
Yeah, the Empire declares us obsolete.
We know.

81
00:08:49,250 --> 00:08:50,875
Talking won't change that.

82
00:08:51,375 --> 00:08:54,833
But it can change your futures.
I can craft a pension plan--

83
00:08:54,833 --> 00:08:57,166
Pension plan?

84
00:08:57,166 --> 00:09:01,083
I'd rather be out there fighting those
insurgent groups that keep popping up.

85
00:09:07,583 --> 00:09:11,166
And what happens
when you're too old to fight?

86
00:09:13,958 --> 00:09:16,333
That's not a scenario
we are trained to think about.

87
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,500
It's time you did. All of you.

88
00:09:21,125 --> 00:09:25,666
As difficult as it is to accept,
your military service will come to an end.

89
00:09:26,541 --> 00:09:28,875
You get to choose what your lives will be.

90
00:09:29,500 --> 00:09:32,916
You've spent years fighting for us.
Let me fight for you.

91
00:09:32,916 --> 00:09:38,375
Tell me how to help and I will make sure
Admiral Rampart's bill meets your needs.

92
00:10:06,541 --> 00:10:10,125
Thank you for trusting me.
I'll do what I can.

93
00:10:14,791 --> 00:10:15,791
Senator.

94
00:10:16,708 --> 00:10:17,708
Yes?

95
00:10:18,208 --> 00:10:21,083
Are you truly intent on helping clones?

96
00:10:22,833 --> 00:10:25,125
You have no representation in the Senate.

97
00:10:25,125 --> 00:10:27,875
You deserve to have someone speak
on your behalf.

98
00:10:27,875 --> 00:10:31,833
It won't matter.
Admiral Rampart can't be trusted.

99
00:10:32,500 --> 00:10:33,666
Why not?

100
00:10:33,666 --> 00:10:36,500
He's lied to you. To everyone.

101
00:10:37,333 --> 00:10:40,875
Kamino wasn't destroyed by a storm.

102
00:10:40,875 --> 00:10:44,375
It was an attack ordered
by Rampart himself.

103
00:10:49,333 --> 00:10:51,500
Why would you make such an accusation?

104
00:10:51,500 --> 00:10:55,041
I was there, aboard his <i>Venator</i>.

105
00:10:55,916 --> 00:10:58,916
He had us open fire on the cities.

106
00:10:59,625 --> 00:11:03,458
If that were true, the Senate would know.
Someone would have come forward.

107
00:11:03,458 --> 00:11:06,000
Rampart made sure no one could.

108
00:11:06,583 --> 00:11:10,125
Clones who tried to speak up
were either reassigned,

109
00:11:10,125 --> 00:11:15,500
went missing or ended up dead.

110
00:11:16,625 --> 00:11:18,208
You don't look well, trooper.

111
00:11:19,916 --> 00:11:21,041
The name's Slip.

112
00:11:21,708 --> 00:11:26,333
Check my service record
if you don't believe me. CT-0409.

113
00:11:27,333 --> 00:11:29,625
You seem like
one of the good ones, Senator.

114
00:11:30,958 --> 00:11:32,541
Be careful.

115
00:11:35,500 --> 00:11:36,875
Everything all right?

116
00:11:37,500 --> 00:11:40,750
Yes. Everything's fine.

117
00:12:01,333 --> 00:12:04,500
Senator Chuchi,
Admiral Rampart is expecting you.

118
00:12:05,083 --> 00:12:07,708
Have you located trooper CT-0409?

119
00:12:07,708 --> 00:12:10,416
Not yet, but we will keep looking.

120
00:12:43,458 --> 00:12:47,250
It's Slip. [sighs] I'm in some trouble.

121
00:12:48,416 --> 00:12:53,125
I've heard you can help get me out, but
you have to hurry. I don't have much time.

122
00:13:01,250 --> 00:13:05,583
You expect the Empire to fund
a new military and full pensions

123
00:13:05,583 --> 00:13:08,166
for millions of clone troopers?

124
00:13:08,166 --> 00:13:10,083
If that is not manageable, Admiral,

125
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:14,125
then perhaps now is not the time
for your recruitment bill.

126
00:13:15,041 --> 00:13:17,125
Oh, I wish that were the case,

127
00:13:17,125 --> 00:13:21,458
but the murmurs of rising threats
and insurgency are more than rumors.

128
00:13:21,458 --> 00:13:24,333
My priority is keeping the galaxy safe.

129
00:13:25,208 --> 00:13:27,666
But I do agree with you.

130
00:13:29,250 --> 00:13:32,833
The future of the clones requires
further discussion and planning.

131
00:13:33,500 --> 00:13:35,458
We owe them that, for their service.

132
00:13:41,416 --> 00:13:43,291
Something troubling you, Senator?

133
00:13:45,541 --> 00:13:49,916
The storm that caused the cities
of Kamino to fall.

134
00:13:50,916 --> 00:13:53,416
How is it that you survived?

135
00:13:55,791 --> 00:13:59,041
I was taking part
in a training exercise off-world.

136
00:13:59,583 --> 00:14:03,333
If I had been present,
perhaps more could have been saved.

137
00:14:03,958 --> 00:14:06,958
It was a tragedy.

138
00:14:06,958 --> 00:14:10,916
The majority of the Kaminoan population
was lost, Admiral.

139
00:14:11,833 --> 00:14:14,500
That is beyond tragic.

140
00:14:15,083 --> 00:14:18,708
Indeed. But we must move forward.

141
00:14:19,750 --> 00:14:22,708
Perhaps it is easier for some than others.

142
00:14:28,833 --> 00:14:30,333
Good day, Admiral.

143
00:15:04,958 --> 00:15:08,041
Senator Chuchi.
You've received a secure communication.

144
00:15:09,625 --> 00:15:10,625
From whom?

145
00:15:36,666 --> 00:15:37,750
Yes?

146
00:15:44,958 --> 00:15:46,875
It's all right. Wait here.

147
00:15:57,375 --> 00:15:58,416
Senator Organa?

148
00:15:59,208 --> 00:16:00,208
Hello, Riyo.

149
00:16:00,875 --> 00:16:04,208
R2-C4, keep an eye out.

150
00:16:06,166 --> 00:16:09,541
You caused quite a stir
during yesterday's session.

151
00:16:09,541 --> 00:16:14,166
Curious how speaking up for what's right
has become an act that causes a stir,

152
00:16:14,166 --> 00:16:17,625
unlike inaction, apathy, or ignorance.

153
00:16:17,625 --> 00:16:18,916
Indeed.

154
00:16:19,583 --> 00:16:25,250
I heard you had a meeting
with Admiral Rampart. Was it productive?

155
00:16:25,250 --> 00:16:26,541
Surprisingly so.

156
00:16:27,250 --> 00:16:31,625
I expected more pushback, yet he conceded
to many of my requests for the clones.

157
00:16:32,208 --> 00:16:35,791
Rampart is skilled at saying
all the right things.

158
00:16:35,791 --> 00:16:38,958
Especially when he doesn't want
anyone looking deeper.

159
00:16:39,666 --> 00:16:41,208
So I've been hearing.

160
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:46,708
There are other whispers
if you listen closely enough.

161
00:16:47,375 --> 00:16:50,708
The issue of clone rights is
part of a much bigger picture.

162
00:16:51,375 --> 00:16:53,458
These insurgencies that have arisen.

163
00:16:53,458 --> 00:16:58,625
Their numbers are growing,
and the Emperor is afraid.

164
00:16:58,625 --> 00:17:02,416
If systems begin to revolt
as they did with the Republic,

165
00:17:02,416 --> 00:17:04,500
that will threaten his new Empire.

166
00:17:05,458 --> 00:17:07,541
It's rather convenient, wouldn't you say?

167
00:17:08,041 --> 00:17:12,083
How a catastrophic storm destroyed
the cloning facilities on Kamino,

168
00:17:12,750 --> 00:17:15,708
making way for the Empire's new military.

169
00:17:15,708 --> 00:17:19,166
Tipoca City, designed to be submersible,

170
00:17:19,166 --> 00:17:21,833
weathered thousands of storms
over the years,

171
00:17:22,333 --> 00:17:24,958
yet it's suddenly wiped off the map.

172
00:17:26,500 --> 00:17:27,500
I spoke to a clone

173
00:17:27,500 --> 00:17:30,666
who claimed Rampart gave an order
to attack the Kaminoan cities.

174
00:17:31,166 --> 00:17:32,416
Did he offer proof?

175
00:17:32,416 --> 00:17:35,000
He said he was assigned
to the ship that opened fire.

176
00:17:36,083 --> 00:17:38,625
If we can convince him to testify.

177
00:17:38,625 --> 00:17:40,041
Where's the clone now?

178
00:17:40,041 --> 00:17:42,416
In hiding. My guards are out searching.

179
00:17:42,416 --> 00:17:47,833
Be careful, Riyo. You may not be
the only one looking for him.

180
00:18:01,541 --> 00:18:03,750
Have you located the clone?

181
00:18:04,333 --> 00:18:10,916
<i>Not yet. But Senator Chuchi's guards
have also been searching for him.</i>

182
00:18:11,500 --> 00:18:16,291
Follow the senator.
If she finds him, handle it.

183
00:18:16,291 --> 00:18:18,916
<i>The senator as well?</i>

184
00:18:19,500 --> 00:18:23,166
Yes. Ensure it can't lead back to me.

185
00:18:23,750 --> 00:18:25,208
<i>Understood.</i>

186
00:18:48,250 --> 00:18:51,958
I'm at the rendezvous. Where are you?

187
00:18:53,083 --> 00:18:54,916
<i>I'm en route. Hang tight.</i>

188
00:19:09,583 --> 00:19:11,333
Easy, trooper.

189
00:19:13,500 --> 00:19:14,583
Senator?

190
00:19:16,291 --> 00:19:18,291
You're a hard person to track down.

191
00:19:19,208 --> 00:19:20,375
What are you doing here?

192
00:19:21,250 --> 00:19:24,250
I believe you were telling the truth
about Admiral Rampart.

193
00:19:25,041 --> 00:19:26,291
I want you to help me.

194
00:19:26,291 --> 00:19:29,500
No. No. No, no. No, no.
I'm leaving once he gets here.

195
00:19:29,500 --> 00:19:30,625
Who?

196
00:19:31,208 --> 00:19:36,583
Someone who can make me disappear,
where the Empire can't find me.

197
00:19:36,583 --> 00:19:38,041
How did you even find me?

198
00:19:38,041 --> 00:19:42,625
Were you followed?
If you can get to me, so can they.

199
00:19:42,625 --> 00:19:45,958
I can protect you. Once the Senate hears
what you have to say--

200
00:19:45,958 --> 00:19:50,000
Senator, you're not listening to me.
They already killed Cade.

201
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,208
My life is in danger. Yours will be too.

202
00:19:53,208 --> 00:19:55,166
You have to go.

203
00:19:55,166 --> 00:19:56,250
Wait!

204
00:19:57,666 --> 00:20:00,541
His attack on Kamino didn't
just affect the cloning facilities.

205
00:20:00,541 --> 00:20:03,083
Rampart wiped out entire cities.

206
00:20:05,916 --> 00:20:10,166
Those who perished, including the clones
who died trying to speak the truth,

207
00:20:10,166 --> 00:20:11,916
they deserve justice.

208
00:20:24,833 --> 00:20:26,500
Testify before the Senate.

209
00:20:27,083 --> 00:20:29,875
Rampart must be held accountable.

210
00:20:33,208 --> 00:20:36,458
Senator, I must insist we leave.
It's not secure here.

211
00:20:36,458 --> 00:20:39,791
Yeah, he's right, and you don't need me.

212
00:20:39,791 --> 00:20:42,416
The evidence you want is
aboard Rampart's ship.

213
00:20:42,416 --> 00:20:44,250
Check the bridge's command log.

214
00:20:44,250 --> 00:20:46,416
I saved a backup to the central system---

215
00:20:47,458 --> 00:20:48,875
Protect the Senator!

216
00:21:02,666 --> 00:21:03,833
We have to go.

217
00:21:07,250 --> 00:21:09,125
We move out on three.

218
00:22:01,666 --> 00:22:04,250
I'll draw him out.
Run for the door. Get to the speeder!

219
00:22:06,458 --> 00:22:07,708
I'll be right behind you!

220
00:23:04,791 --> 00:23:06,000
You all right, Senator?

221
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:10,458
Captain Rex? Wha-- What is going on?

222
00:23:10,958 --> 00:23:13,041
I was hoping you could tell me.

223
00:23:13,708 --> 00:23:17,333
I came to meet a clone contact of mine
when I heard the blaster fire.

224
00:23:17,333 --> 00:23:19,041
You were who Slip was meeting?

225
00:23:19,875 --> 00:23:22,583
He's dead. So are my guards.

226
00:23:23,083 --> 00:23:25,000
What happened?

227
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,500
Slip told me about
what truly happened to Kamino.

228
00:23:28,125 --> 00:23:30,375
I wanted him to testify before the Senate.

229
00:23:31,083 --> 00:23:34,375
Someone was sent to make sure
that would never happen.

230
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:53,083
A clone?
Why would a trooper do such a thing?

231
00:23:53,083 --> 00:23:54,416
He's not a trooper.

232
00:23:54,416 --> 00:24:00,708
Not sure what he is, but I suggest
we question him somewhere more hidden.

233
00:24:01,416 --> 00:24:03,458
And I have just the place.

234
00:24:24,041 --> 00:24:25,208
Where are we?

235
00:24:25,791 --> 00:24:29,500
Couple friends of mine own this garage.
They're gone for a bit.

236
00:24:35,625 --> 00:24:38,791
Nice of you to join us. You got a name?

237
00:24:40,833 --> 00:24:41,833
Hmm.

238
00:24:42,875 --> 00:24:45,666
You're not wearing
any identifiable markings.

239
00:24:46,291 --> 00:24:47,416
Who do you work for?

240
00:24:49,708 --> 00:24:52,750
Don't want to talk about yourself? Fine.

241
00:24:52,750 --> 00:24:55,666
Tell me whose orders you were following,
and I'll let you go.

242
00:24:58,458 --> 00:25:02,458
No, you won't, Captain Rex.

243
00:25:03,958 --> 00:25:07,416
You're fighting the wrong battle, brother.

244
00:25:07,416 --> 00:25:08,916
You're limited.

245
00:25:09,666 --> 00:25:11,166
So, what does that make you?

246
00:25:16,041 --> 00:25:18,375
A believer.
