[electricity crackling]
Who dares summon me here and question my loyalty?
The charges against me are false!
[Roland] Stop wasting our time, Captain.
Confess to your crimes, and we may show mercy.
What proof do you have?
Your accomplices have been captured and told us everything.
There is no need for further deception.
[staff raps]
You are guilty of conspiracy against this family.
Any last words?
This syndicate has grown weak under your rule, Lady Durand.
Weak, you say?
Who here agrees?
Cowards!
You're dismissed, Captain.
[screams]
Who stands before me next?
[control panel beeps]
[Pyke prisoner pants]
The mercenaries we discussed.
[Isa] Such courage to demand an audience with me.
You'd be dead if my son hadn't convinced me to consider your offer.
And we're here to deliver.
You asked for the Pyke who disgraced your family.
[Wrecker] He's all yours.
[Hunter] It won't be traced back to you. We made sure of it.
[groans]
Take him below.
[Pyke prisoner] No. No!
This isn't over, Durand.
[door slides shut]
[Isa] Impressive.
Your willingness to cross the Pykes shows how desperate you are.
Tell me. Why is the intel you've requested of such value to you?
[Hunter] Dr. Hemlock stole someone from us.
We heard your syndicate had the connections needed
to find the Imperial's base.
And since we've upheld our end of the bargain,
now it's your turn.
- [electricity humming] - [gears clacking]
Hemlock's whereabouts have been well guarded by the Empire,
but one of our sources came across these coordinates linked to his laboratory.
And they've been verified?
Take what you came for and go, before my generosity runs out.
I hope you find who you're looking for.
[control panel beeps]
[controls beeping]
[scanner beeping]
[footsteps approaching]
Echo said he and Rex need two rotations
before they can meet us at the coordinates.
That's not good enough.
We're going now.
Hunter, the last time we stormed an Imperial base without backup,
not all of us made it out.
[footsteps departing]
[controls beeping]
Omega's been waiting for us a long time, Wrecker.
I'm not making her wait another day.
[creatures warbling]
[scanner beeping]
[groans]
It smells like rancid Jotaz out here.
There's nothing on the scanners.
The Empire could be jamming our sensors.
[beeping continues]
[Hunter] Oh, no.
[Wrecker] Whoa.
That's Hemlock's lab?
They destroyed it.
Another orbital bombardment.
But Omega. I-I-If she was here...
We don't know if she was.
The Durands' intel could be wrong.
Let's get down there and check it out.
[branches rustling]
[Hunter] We're not alone.
[cadet 1] Freeze!
Drop your weapons.
[Wrecker laughs]
Blaster beats stick, kid.
Wrecker, they're regs.
And who are you?
We're clones. Same as you.
You don't look like clones.
They must be 99s.
Defectives.
Defective and effective.
What are you two doing out here?
What's it look like? Surviving.
Or trying to. No thanks to the Empire.
They send you to finish us off?
Do we look like we're with the Empire?
What do you want?
We're looking for a young girl.
She's a clone.
We think she was sent to the lab here.
Never saw anyone like that, but Mox might know about her.
He won't talk to them.
Please, we have to find her.
She's part of our squad.
Stick to the trail.
Follow our steps.
And don't touch the vines.
[cadet 1] When the Empire transferred us off Kamino,
we thought we were getting more training.
Instead, they made us prisoners.
Took samples of our blood.
[Hunter] Why? What was the Empire doing here?
Whatever they wanted.
At least we escaped before they destroyed the facility.
[Hunter] And you survived alone out here ever since?
We're soldiers.
Or we were supposed to be.
[vine rustling]
Stop.
What?
Wrecker, behind you.
[vine warbling]
[cadet 2] Run!
[vine screeches]
Don't fire! It gets hostile when you shoot.
[Wrecker] You mean it's not already hostile?
[cadets] No!
[vine growls]
[Wrecker screams, grunts]
Hunter!
[grunts]
[vine shrieks, screeches]
[cadet 2] Come on!
[Wrecker panting]
What was that stuff?
[pants] Slither vines.
The Empire made it.
It's some kind of experimental weapon, until they lost control of it.
Probably why they ordered a Base Delta Zero on their own facility.
We'll be safe on the crag.
The slither vines haven't spread there.
Yet.
And this time, don't touch anything.
[Wrecker] Yeah, yeah.
[cadet 2] Mox.
Who are they?
Clones.
We found them by the overlook.
It's quite a place you got here.
What do you want?
We're looking for a young girl.
She was taken by an Imperial named Hemlock.
Her name's Omega.
Never saw a girl around the lab.
But I know Hemlock.
He was in charge until things changed.
One day, the Imperials started packing up and shipped out.
So we made our move and escaped.
We were the only ones who made it out before the orbital bombardment.
Even the clone troopers left us to die.
Said they were following orders.
We get it.
We've lost people too.
We can take you to someplace safe,
but we need to find out if Omega was here or where Hemlock took her.
There has to be some intel in that base.
One of the control room panels was still intact during our last scout.
I tried to use it to send a signal, but there was no power.
Can you take us there?
No way.
That area is covered in slither vines.
It's toxic.
Stak's right.
Going near those ruins is a suicide mission.
You're on your own.
They need help, Mox.
I'll go with them.
You know the risks of going down there.
And I thought he was the smart one.
I can get you inside the ruins,
but you won't be able to get anything from the console without a power source.
We got that covered.
Just need to grab something from our ship.
This clone you're looking for…
[Hunter] Omega.
How long has she been gone?
[Hunter] Too long.
But we're not giving up.
I wish the other clones felt that way about us.
You may be defective CTs, but at least you're loyal.
Whoa!
Your ship has seen some action.
[Hunter] Mostly during the war.
And some after.
I thought, one day, I'd be flying one of these on a mission.
A lot's changed.
- [Wrecker grunts] - [Gonky honks]
Well, I've got the gear and the power.
[Gonky honks, chatters]
Lead the way, kid.
- [mask beeps] - [inhales]
[slither vines warbling]
[creatures screeching]
[cadet 1] There's slither vines everywhere in there.
- Be careful where you step. - [Wrecker] Whoa!
[grunts]
[Gonky honks, chatters]
[metal creaking]
[groans]
How much further is the console?
[cadet 1] Hard to tell.
More vines have spread down here.
We had to stop scavenging the site because of it.
What other experiments were going on in this place?
[cadet 1] Nothing good.
They didn't exactly tell us what was going on.
[slither vines slithering, warbling]
[slither vine roars]
[grunts]
[screams]
- [grunts] - [slither vine warbles]
[slither vine screeches]
[cadet 1 grunts, mumbles]
[slither vine shrieking]
[cadet 1 grunts]
[slither vines warbling]
[slither vine runner screeching]
[chittering]
[Hunter] Go! Keep moving!
[hisses, screeches]
[chittering]
[chitters]
What are we waiting for?
Let's take their ship and get out of here.
What about Deke?
He made his choice.
If we leave him behind,
then we're no better than the troopers who did the same to us.
Mox.
Those two clones seem different.
They're risking their lives to find a member of their squad.
I respect that.
They won't make it back from the ruins.
You know that.
If we wait and the slither vines reach their ship, our chance to escape is gone.
Where's their ship?
Northern ridge.
Show me.
[creatures chittering in distance]
[liquid gurgling]
[Wrecker groans]
I didn't think it could smell any worse, but I was wrong.
[Hunter] We're in agreement on that.
[Deke] There's the console. Come on.
[gurgling]
[Gonky honks, chatters]
[beeping, whirring]
[Wrecker] All right.
Do your thing, little guy.
- [Gonky chatters] - [controls beeping]
[metal creaking]
Something's coming.
We need to make this quick.
[Wrecker] Is it more of those things?
[Hunter] No.
Something else.
[Deke] I'm familiar with the system. Give me some time.
I'll see what data I can pull up.
[controls beep]
[rhythmic beeping]
[rumbling]
[roaring]
[grunts]
Got it.
You really think you can fly this thing?
I was top of my class in flight training back on Kamino.
[Mox] Where will we go?
[Stak] Anywhere is better than here.
Check this out. A DC-17.
- [comlink beeps] - [Deke on comm] Mox, Mox! Stak!
- The vines. They're everywhere. - [blaster fire on comm]
Help! We need help!
Mox! Come in, Mox!
Time's up. Get the datapad!
[Wrecker grunting]
[slither vines screeching]
- [Wrecker] Whoa! Look out! - [Deke screams]
[slither vine shrieks]
[Deke screaming]
[grunts]
[Hunter straining]
[slither vine screeches]
[Deke] It's everywhere!
Keep it steady!
Grab the cables!
[slither vine growling]
[growling continues]
Shoot for the mouth!
[Hunter] We need more firepower!
[grenade beeps, whirs]
[shrieks]
[Hunter] That's not enough!
[Wrecker] Grab the case of explosives.
[growling]
[grenade beeps]
[rhythmic beeping]
[grenade whirs]
Yeah!
[Hunter] Go, go, go!
[no audible dialogue]
[laughs]
[Gonky chatters]
I've been going over the data.
Looks like Hemlock transferred his entire base of operations to another location.
His experiments too.
Did the intel say where he went?
There was a mention of a sector but nothing more.
It's a lead, but we've got a lot of space to cover.
Well, if that's where Omega is, then that's where we're going.
We'll drop you three off someplace safe.
Where?
An island.
There are good people there.
They'll take care of you.
We're cadets without an army.
I don't know where we fit anymore.
You have time to figure it out.
Make your own path.
Be something other than a soldier.
What about you?
Our mission is not over yet.
