Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Page #6

CASSIAN ANDOR:
That’s Jedha. Or what’s left of it. We find Saw, we find your father.

JYN ERSO:
What’s with the Destroyer?

CASSIAN ANDOR:
It’s because of your old friend, Saw Gerrera. He’s been attacking the cargo shipments.

JYN ERSO:
What are they bringing in?

CASSIAN ANDOR:
It’s ‘what are they taking out?’ Kyber crystal. All they can get. We wondered why they were stripping the temple, now we know.It’s the fuel for the weapon.

K-2SO [KAY-TUESSO], coming out of the U-Wing: The weapon your father’s building.

JYN ERSO:
Maybe we should leave target practice behind.

K-2SO [KAY-TUESSO]: Are you talking about me?

CASSIAN ANDOR:
She’s right. We need to blend in. Stay with the ship.

K-2SO [KAY-TUESSO]: I can blend in. I’m an Imperial droid. This city is under Imperial occupation.

JYN ERSO:
Half the people here want to reprogram you. The other half want to put a hole in your head.

K-2SO [KAY-TUESSO]: I’m surprised you’re so concerned with my safety.

Jyn walks past him, slamming a bag into his hands as she walks by.

JYN ERSO:
I’m not. I’m just worried they might miss you and hit me.

K-2SO drops the bag on the ground as they leave.

K-2SO [KAY-TUESSO]: Doesn’t sound so bad to me.

INT. PARTISAN BASE (In the Partisan base.)

Bodhi is strapped to a chair. A strange bloblike alien with long tentacles emerges from the darkness. Bodhi shivers and tries moving back, but fails. He watches in horror as the alien approaches.

SAW GERRERA:
Bor Gullet can feel your thoughts, No lie is safe. What have you really brought me, cargo pilot? Bor Gullet will know the truth. The unfortunate side effect, is that one tends to lose one’s mind.

Bor Gullet’s tentacles begin to wrap around Bodhi and stroke his head, reaching into his thoughts.

BODHI ROOK:
Nooo...

(In the Holy City of Jedha)

Cassian and Jyn walk through a crowd in a narrow street. Jyn accidentally bumps into Dr. Evazan and Ponda Baba, who turn to them, annoyed.

DR. CORNELIUS EVAZAN: Hey, you just watch yourself.

CASSIAN ANDOR:
No, no. Tourist, we don’t want any trouble, sorry. Come on. Come on.

A squad of stormtroopers is seen distributing holopads with the face of Bodhi Rook on them and questioning citizens.

STORMTROOPER:
Citizens of Jedha, you must come forward with information of the location of this missing cargo pilot. A reward of 600 credits for the information shall be awarded.

CASSIAN ANDOR:
I had a contact, one of Saw’s rebels, but he’s just gone missing. His sister will be looking for him. The temple’s been destroyed but she’ll be there waiting. We’ll give her your name and hope that gets us a meeting with Saw.
