[all cheering]
[Kai] Yeah!
[no audible dialogue]
[shouts]
[Nubs grunts]
[engines roaring]
- [Kai shouts] - [Lys] Whee! Whoo-hoo!
- [Nubs shouts] - [Lys] Yeah!
Thanks for showing us your piloting moves, Nash.
Can't wait to try them during our flying lessons with Master Zia tomorrow.
You haven't even seen my best move.
I call it the Throttle Buster!
- Whoo-hoo! - [shouts]
- [Kai] Whoo-hoo! [laughs] - [Nubs cheers]
- [Lys] Whoa! [laughs] - [Kai] Whoo!
- [shouts, whoops] - [RJ beeps]
[laughs, cheers]
[Kai] Whoa!
[engines roaring]
[moans, blows]
That was great! [exclaims]
Nash, you gotta teach us the Throttle Buster, please?
- [RJ beeps] - [scoffs] It's really hard.
We should wait until you've had a little more time to train.
[sighs]
But I guess I could let you fly the Crimson Firehawk for a bit.
[beeps]
Really? I've never flown it before!
[Nash] Now, be gentle with the Firehawk.
- [Nubs speaks Poobian] - [Kai] Whoa!
[beeps]
- I said, be gentle! - [RJ beeps]
Sorry! [chuckles, grunts]
- [Nubs grunts] - [Kai yelps]
- [Nash] Watch out! - [Kai yelps] Sorry!
- [Nash whimpers] Slow down! Be careful! - [Kai yelps] Sorry!
- [whoops, laughs] - [RJ beeps]
[Nubs shouts]
[engines roaring]
Huh. You're actually pretty good at flying, Kai.
Thanks! We took some beginner flying lessons already. Watch this!
[engines roaring]
[chuckles] Pretty fun, huh?
- Kai, look out! - [controls beeping]
[Lys, Nubs exclaim]
- [Kai grunts] - [Nubs shouts]
- [shouting] - [RJ beeps]
[engines roaring]
[gasps]
- [grunts] - [beeps]
- [grunts] - [RJ beeps]
[chuckles] Sorry for the rough landing, Nash.
Eh, that's okay. The Firehawk is tougher than it looks.
[RJ beeps]
- Oof! - [chuckles]
[sighs] Come on, RJ. Let's check for any damage.
[RJ chirps]
Hi, Master Zia. Sorry about the rough landing.
Nash let me fly the Firehawk.
Believe it or not, I've seen worse landings. [chuckles]
I hope you're all ready for your flying lesson tomorrow.
Kai could definitely use another lesson.
- [chuckling] - Hey!
- First, you three need some ships to fly. - [gasps]
I'm sending you and Nash to pick them up from my friend Zepher.
His starship repair shop is on one of the moons of Tenoo.
Hey! Ha! I know Zepher. He's a friend of my mom's too!
[RJ beeps]
Oh, gasket-thrusters!
[Zia] You'll be flying the ships back here to the Temple.
Kai, I know you want to fly like Nash, but you're still learning.
So, please take it easy until you're ready.
Don't worry, Master Zia. We'll bring those starships back
- without a scratch. - [speaks Poobian]
- [engine sputters, hisses] - [Nash] Could use a little help over here!
- Oh, come on! - [chuckles]
We'll leave for the mission right after we help Nash.
[chuckles, speaks Poobian]
- Whoa. - [Nubs exclaims]
Those are the two moons of Tenoo.
The big one with the rings around it is where we'll find Zepher.
[engines roaring]
That looks like a fun place to fly a starship.
[roars]
[gasps] What is that?
I see you've met our space slug.
- Amazing! - [speaks Poobian]
[engines roaring]
[Zepher] Nash Durango!
- Zepher! - [RJ beeps]
By the light! Look how you've grown. [chuckles]
And good to see you too, RJ. How's my favorite droid?
[beeps]
Kai, Lys, Nubs, meet Zepher!
He taught my parents everything they know about starship engines.
Hello, younglings!
Master Zia told me you'd be coming. You are most welcome here, my friends.
Come, come! Let me show you to your ships.
- [Kai, Lys] Whoa! - [Nubs gasps]
[Lys] Jedi Vectors!
[gasps] They're beautiful.
- I can't wait to fly 'em! - [laughs]
Ha-pa-pup-pup, not so fast, young Jedi.
I've made changes so these ships can be used by younglings.
Uh, they take a little, uh, getting used to.
Sounds like fun to me. [chuckles]
[chuckles] I like your attitude.
But before I let you fly all the way back to the Temple,
you'll need to prove you can handle them safely.
Like a test flight?
Exactly!
Nash, you're the best pilot I know. Can you lead these three on a test flight?
- Does a wipplebog snort when it's sleepy? - [RJ chirps]
[speaks Poobian]
Y-Yes. The answer is yes.
- This is gonna be a blast. - [RJ beeps]
[all chuckling]
[chuckles]
[engines powering up]
[engines roaring]
[chuckles]
[Nash] Okay.
So, we're gonna do some fancy flyin'.
- [RJ beeps] - Follow me.
Do try to keep up.
[Lys] Whoo-hoo!
[Kai] Whoo-hoo!
[cooing]
- [controls beeping] - [yelps]
[growls, speaks Poobian]
[laughs, speaks Poobian]
[laughs]
[engines roaring]
[birds chittering]
Ooh! A flock of Karnis birds. I've never seen them in person--
- [Nash] Lys! - [gasps]
Pay attention.
Oh! [chuckles] Oops! Thanks, Nash.
[engines roaring]
Nice, Kai! You really are good at flying.
Thanks, Nash.
[Nash] All right, everyone's looking good.
-For the next part of the test flight... - [gasps] Whoa.
...we're gonna do something a little harder.
A little harder, huh?
- [Nash] To get the best angle on this... - [gasps] Ooh!
Those asteroids look like the perfect place to practice.
This is gonna be fun.
[laughing] Whoa! Whoa! Yeah! Whoo-hoo!
Ha! Ha! [chuckles]
This is harder, but this is a blast.
[chuckles]
[Lys] Kai, there you are! We didn't realize you had left. You okay?
Sorry 'bout that!
I just got so excited about flying around these asteroids.
You gotta try it. It's amazing!
It does look like a fun place to test your skills.
- [RJ beeps] - All right. [chuckles]
If we stay together, we should be fine.
Let's go.
[engines roaring]
Now, this is a test flight.
[Nash] Wow! You three are getting really good with those Vectors.
Time to take things up a notch.
That asteroid looks like a good place for a Throttle Buster.
[Nash] I'm not so sure you should--
Oh, there he goes.
I'm doing it!
Whoa! [shouts]
- [yelps] - Uh-oh.
[Kai] Whoa!
[yelps] Whoa!
I didn't do it.
I pulled the throttle too soon, and I damaged my ship, didn't I?
[speaks Poobian]
[Nash] So close. Uh, that's okay, Kai.
It's just a couple scratches. Zepher can fix--
[gasps] Uh-oh!
[space slug roars]
[speaks Poobian]
What? [gasps] It's--
The space slug!
- Hurry! Fly away! - [RJ beeps]
[Kai yelping]
- [Lys yelping] Let's go, let's go! - [Nash] Hurry! Hurry, hurry!
Lys, Nubs, Nash, RJ-83, you okay?
[Lys] Kai! We're inside the slug!
It's-- It's--
[yelps]
It's incredible!
[spits, raspberry]
- [RJ beeps] - We're fine.
And the ships are safe.
There must be a way to get you out of there!
I'm so sorry.
I-- I guess I wasn't ready to do the Throttle Buster.
Throttle... [gasps]
I have an idea, but you're going to have to listen to me and follow my directions.
Okay, Nash, I'm listening. What's the plan?
Okay, Kai. Nash's plan's gonna be great.
Just gotta do the Throttle Buster to make sure the giant slug chases you
and open its mouth so your friends can escape,
but also make sure you don't get swallowed. Easy.
[sighs]
[Nash] Kai, I believe in you.
We've practiced flying all day. You're ready to do this.
- [RJ chirps] - [inhales deeply] I hope.
We're gonna blast out as soon as you make the slug open its mouth.
[speaks Poobian]
[inhales deeply] The Force is with me.
Okay, here we go!
Hey, Sluggie! Over here!
[engines roaring]
[roars]
It's open! Get out of there!
[Nash] Now! Now! Now!
[Kai] Come on, Kai!
He's following my directions!
He's doing the Throttle Buster the right way!
Wait for it!
All right, let's do this!
- [engines roaring] - [roars]
Its mouth is closing! Hurry!
[grunting]
We can make it! We can make it!
Come on, come on, come on, come on!
[all] Whoa!
We did it!
[cheers]
[beeps]
- Yes! - [Lys] That was amazing!
[Nash] I knew you were ready!
Now, let's get your ship fixed up before we head for the Temple.
[engines roaring]
Sorry about the ship, Zepher.
I should have listened to Nash and followed her directions.
Psh! These are training ships.
[chuckles] Of course they're gonna get banged up from time to time.
And I'm always happy to help fix 'em up.
From what Nash told me,
it sounds like you three are ready to take these to the Temple.
You really think so, Nash?
Flying isn't easy, but you've learned a valuable lesson today.
Besides, after escaping a giant space slug,
- flying home should be a piece of cake. - [cheers]
- Yeah! - Yes!
Now, fly safe.
And if you ever need someone to fix up your ships,
you know where to find me.
Thanks, Zepher.
[engines roaring]
Wow! Zepher did a great job on the ships!
He always does.
And you've definitely got three great pilots here, Master Zia.
They're ready for their next lesson tomorrow.
We learned from the best.
I'm glad to hear it, Nash.
Now, who wants to go on one more practice flight before tomorrow's lesson?
- [all] Yes! - [speaks Poobian]
[Nash singsongy] Now, who wants to try the Throttle Buster?
- [Kai] Not me! [laughs] - [Nubs speaks Poobian]
[all laughing]
[Kai] You're gonna pay for that one, Nubs. [chuckles]
- [speaks Poobian, coos] - Come on, almost there!
- And that's how you do it. - [gasps]
- Good race, Nubs. - [speaks Poobian, groans]
[Lys] Great timing!
Nash says we're going to be at planet Federian soon.
I can't wait to see the beautiful Federian trees there.
[speaks Poobian, growls]
Nubs is right!
These special trees have wood that's some of the strongest in the galaxy.
I can't wait to see them in person and the forest wildlife.
- [coos] - It's a pretty special forest.
Master Zia sent us here to learn about it, but you and Nubs already know so much.
What more could we possibly learn?
You always learn new things when you visit new places.
[Nash] Nash here!
We're about to arrive at the forest, but there's a bit of a problem.
[RJ beeps]
Wait, where are the trees?
I thought we were supposed to land in the forest.
[speaks Poobian]
According to my directions, this should be the forest.
[whimpering]
[Nubs whimpers]
Sawdust! That must mean these trees were cut down.
Who would do that to this beautiful forest?
[creature squeaks, peeps]
[peeps]
Oh, hello there. I know what you are.
- You're a skriffle! - [skriffle peeps]
They're friendly and smart little critters!
- [Lys giggles] - [squeaks]
What's wrong, little one?
[squeaks]
Something bad happened here, didn't it?
[growls, peeps]
- I think he wants us to follow him! - [coos]
- [beeps] - RJ, can you keep an eye
on the Firehawk while we find out what happened?
- Thanks, buddy. - [RJ chirps]
[squealing]
- [panting] - He's fast for a little guy. [chuckles]
[skriffle squeals]
Aw, he's gone.
- Oh, and he's back! - [squeaks]
He must want to show us something on the other side. Come on!
[groans] Ow!
[Nibs grunting]
- [skriffle squeaks] - [grunts]
- [all] Whoa! - [Nubs speaks Poobian]
[skriffle squeaking]
- [all] Whoa. - [speaks Poobian]
[Kai] That must be the tallest tree in the forest.
- [Nash] Whoa! - [Lys] Wow!
[speaks Poobian]
[squeals]
[peeping]
[peeps]
Look at all the skriffles! They're so cute!
They are, but they look so sad.
[skriffles squeak, whimper]
Skriffles normally live in trees all over the Federian forest.
[squeaks]
[chuckles] You must have all been scared when the other trees were cut down
and came here to the tallest one for protection!
[sniffs]
So these trees are the skriffles' homes!
[squeaks]
I promise we're gonna find out who cut down those trees
and make sure they don't cut down any more.
We're going to protect your homes.
Let's get going.
We need to figure out who or what cut down these trees.
- [skriffle chitters] - [giggles] Coming along, huh?
Okay, what do we see?
- [speaks Poobian] - Vehicle tracks!
Huh, good eye, Nubs.
These might've come from whatever machine cut down those trees.
- [coos] - And look, they lead this way.
[sighs] We've been following these tracks forever.
[coos]
[exclaiming]
[speaks Poobian, pants]
[all panting]
- Hmm? - What is that thing?
- [squeaks] - It's okay, little buddy.
Hmm.
Sawdust. This is what cut down the trees!
Let's talk to whoever's driving it and tell them to stop.
[speaks Poobian]
[skriffle chitters]
Hello, is anyone in there?
Ahem, state your business.
Oh! Um. My-my-my business?
We need to talk to whoever's in charge of this vehicle.
Yeah! They shouldn't be cutting down these trees!
[speaks Poobian]
Raxlo has no time for you.
Uh, who's Raxlo?
[groans] Raxlo is in charge of this vehicle.
So, it's not you?
I am RC-99.
Raxlo is very busy. He cannot see visitors.
Thank you for contacting the Raxlo Corporation. Ta-ta.
[scoffs, speaks Poobian]
We have to get inside to talk to this Raxlo person.
Oh, we will, and I know who can help us.
[sighs] State your business.
- [beeps] - Oh, state your business.
[beeping, chirping]
Fascinating! And what happened next? I must know!
[RJ beeping, chirping]
He tells the best stories.
Now's our chance!
- You don't say. - [Nash grunts]
- [RJ beeping] - And then what happened?
[whirring]
[Nubs yelps]
[grunts] Uh-oh.
[beeps] How did you get inside?
- Uh. [chuckles] - [gasps]
[Nash] There!
You need to leave now!
[all grunting]
[Kai] Ha! [grunts]
- Hurry! - [yelps]
[grunts, pants]
Raxlo doesn't care for unscheduled visitors! [grunts]
- [Nubs sighs] - [all] Phew!
[chuckles] Well, that was fun, but we still need to find Raxlo.
Ah, so you're looking for me.
[skriffle squeaks]
Sorry for barging in, but we need to talk.
I don't have time for visitors.
Too many things to do. It's a busy, busy day.
Then we'll make it quick.
- Did your machine-- - My harvester.
Did your harvester cut down the Federian trees?
[chuckles] Well, yes. I would hope so. That is after all what I built it to do.
[speaks Poobian]
I have no idea what he's saying.
[squeaks]
[yelps] There's some kind of furry rodent on you.
This is a skriffle, and the Federian trees are their homes.
If you keep cutting them down, they'll have no place to live.
Aw, how terribly unfortunate.
So you need to stop cutting down those trees!
I see.
There's another thing you may not know about these very special trees.
Come with me.
[speaks Poobian]
Ah, Raxlo, apologies.
Everything's fine, RC-99. I'm handling this.
You may know that Federian trees have amazingly strong wood
that makes amazingly strong buildings.
But what you may not know is that the trees are very valuable.
It's why I'm gonna cut 'em all down and sell 'em for lots and lots of money.
- [Nubs growls] - [squeaks]
But my harvester overheated
before I cut down the largest, most valuable Federian tree.
And now that you know these trees are homes to creatures,
you'll stop, right?
Oh. No.
The thing is, my harvester is now cooled down and ready to cut, cut, cut.
And since I'd prefer not having any Jedi trying to stop me...
- [machine whirring] - [all yelp]
I'm afraid I'll have to drop you off here until I'm done.
Ta!
[all yelp]
[all yelping]
[whirring]
Raxlo's gonna cut down the trees, the rest of the skriffles' homes!
- [all straining] - [skriffle squealing]
But what can we do? We're kinda tied up if you hadn't noticed.
[squeaks]
[chittering]
[chitters]
- [gasps] You called your friends! - [chittering]
[squeaks]
Thank you.
Lys, we can stop Raxlo, but we need to get ahead of him!
To the Firehawk!
[whirring]
[engine roaring]
Okay, everyone,
we have a little time before Raxlo and his harvester get here.
If we're gonna stop him, we need a plan.
Nubs, I'm gonna need you to find a boulder.
[straining]
[chitters]
[Nubs panting]
- [RJ beeps] - You okay, Nubs?
Okay. [pants]
[whirring]
[controls beeping]
[groans] Them again.
- Wait, wait, wait! - Please slow down.
You little--
[groans]
Thought I'd gotten rid of you kids!
- Turn around and leave this forest alone. - [RJ beeps]
This is your last chance, Raxlo!
Hmm. Let me think.
Uh... No.
[whirring]
[chuckles] I thought he might say that.
Nubs, now!
- [straining] - [squeaking]
[Nubs chuckles]
[coos]
[cackles] They think that'll stop my harvester?
[whirring]
[both gasp]
- [exclaims] - Lys!
Whoo-hoo!
[squeaking]
All right! [laughs]
[whirring]
- What the-- - [panting] Pull!
- [all straining] - [RJ beeping]
[straining]
[whirring]
I don't think so!
[whirring]
[cackles]
[whirring continues]
[all yelp]
[cackles]
- [straining] - [Force rumbling]
Huh?
- [straining] - [Force rumbling]
[whirring]
[growling]
Almost there!
- [whirring, clicking] - [all straining]
[clacking]
- [Kai] Yay! - [Nash] Whoo-hoo!
No! No!
My harvester! You've broken my beautiful harvester!
It's time you leave, Raxlo.
Oh, I won't ever come back!
Your little rodent friends can keep their trees! [groans]
Come on, RC-99! We're outta here.
[engines powering up, roaring]
- Yeah! - [all cheering]
- We did it! - Yes!
Oh, yeah, we did!
[Kai] And I learned so much more than I thought I would.
I learned that a forest is more than just trees.
To creatures and animals that live in it, the forest is home.
I am so proud of you for protecting the forest and the skriffles' homes,
and we'll make sure we help replant the trees that were cut down.
Thank you, Master Zia.
Did you hear that? We're gonna help fix your home,
and from now on, you'll live in peace and happiness.
- [chuckling] - [chittering]
- [laughing] - [chittering]
