Season 1 / Episode 15 : " Trespass "
Republic outpost overrun
The Jedi have lost all contact with the clone security force
Stationed on the bleak snow-covered planet of Orto-Plutonia
Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker
Accompanied by dignitaries from the nearby moon of Pantora,
Are sent to investigate the disappearance of the clone troopers
On the desolate and forbidding landscape
And this is the planet's tropical zone
It's not Tatooine that's for sure
Captain Rex have your men survey the area
Place as many sensor beacons as you can before dark
Right away, sir Unload that gear
Let's move
Why would the Republic want an outpost way out here?
The chairman... of Orto-Plutonia requested it?
Why?
General Kenobi
Chairman Cho, Senator Chuchi
I suggest you wait here until we can secure the area
I respect your judgment, General Kenobi,
But I will go where I choose This is sovereign Pantora territory
I thought this planet was uninhabited, and therefore, it's not aligned
Our moon of Pantora is the only civilization in this system
I'm the one who asked the Senate to protect this planet
This wasteland belongs to us
With all due respect, Chairman,
This is for the Senate to decide, not us
But the Jedi report to the Senate
Which is Senator Chuchi of Pantora
Technically speaking, Master Jedi, the Chairman is correct
Since the planet is uninhabited, the moon of Pantora reserves the right
To continue as its protectorate
Point taken, Senator
Anakin, stay here with the Senator and the droids
While we secure the base
I don't get it
It must be Separatists
I am not sure
Might we go inside, Master Anakin?
R2 would like to get out of the cold
We'll go inside as soon as Obi-Wan signals that it's safe
Do you think the Separatists're building a forward base
To attack Pantora?
I don't think we're dealing with Separatists
These computers haven't been touched
Sir, our scouts have spotted a droid base
On the other side of the ice ridge
By the look of things I'd say whoever attacked our base
Took out the droids also
Rex, help Anakin place the sensor beacons
You four, come with me
Yes, General
Let's go
Did you find anything?
I found some large footprints
Have one of your men make a cast
Sensors are in place
I think I've found something
Blast it
685 to command There are too many of them
They've overrun the base We need reinforcements
What was that?
Whatever it was it's a good warrior
The droid's log indicates they were investigating the southern canyon
Sounds like a good place to start
I want the weapon system back online and the shields operational
There's no telling what the Separatists have planned
Chairman, what makes you so certain the Separatists are behind this attack?
Look around, Senator
Isn't this carnage proof enough?
I know, but there are no dead droids here
No blast marks The clones' injuries were not consistent with what...
So you're an expert on war now are you, Senator?
No, Chairman no, I only...
Let me tell you something, Senator
I have led our people since before you were born
I've seen 100 planets rise and fall through force of arms
If it's not the Separatists out there
It's a malevolent and an aggressive enemy none the less
And I will not let whoever it is
Jeopardize the security of the people of Pantora
But if the Jedi discover that the Separatists aren't behind this
Then perhaps there is a peaceful resolution
Senator, I am willing to fight and die for my people
It's time to ask yourself if you are brave enough to do the same
There's some kind of reflection up there
Do you see it?
Yep
Well, they know we're coming Let's go
Steady, Anakin They're only curious
Let's not provoke them as the droids and our troops must have done
Too bad we didn't bring 3PO along
How do you plan on communicating with these things?
Patience Maybe they're smarter than we are
Well, say something
Just shut up
We come to you in peace
We will not bring harm
Peace
Glad you made it back, sir It's getting nasty out there
You don't know the half of it
What did you find?
It seems we've stumbled onto an inhabited planet
Impossible
Our explorers have spent much time here over the long history of Pantora
No one lives here They're trespassers
With respect, Chairman Cho, these creatures, the Talz,
Aren't advanced enough to master space travel
I think they may have been here longer than Pantora
Whoever they are, they belong to us
This whole system belongs to us
Your majesty, if there are life forms here,
Then the Senate must decide jurisdiction
They are savages
Look at what they've done They've slaughtered your troops
They only want to be left alone
The droids attacked them
And I'm afraid our outpost got caught in the middle
They must be subdued They're dangerous
Captain Rex, prepare your troops for battle
We promised their chief there would be no retaliation
We've arranged a meeting between their high council and you
And the Senator They want peace
We can't send troopers They'll think we lied
These creatures are little more than animals
You can't lie to an animal They can't be trusted
But, your majesty...
No, it is obvious these creatures are not covered
By the convention of civilized systems
The Jedi Council has no say in the matter
If the Jedi are able to communicate with them
Their status is in doubt
Do you stand against your chairman, Senator?
Of course not, your majesty
If we're going to meet with Thi-Sen and his council at the arranged time
we'll have to leave now
The gunships can't take off in this storm
We don't have enough bikes for the entire platoon
Have the rest of the men stand by here
No matter what the chairman thinks, we're not going to war
Captain, put your men on that ice ridge
We will attack as soon as the savages arrive
There will be no attack, chairman
You will do as icommand This planet is under my jurisdiction
Nothing is under your control Chairman
The Talz are already here
Their scouts have been following us for some time
It seems thi-sen doesn't trust you any more than you trust him
Rex, tell your men to stand down
Stay here and don't do anything to provoke them
Yes, sir
Your Highness We have returned
As promised
These savages have no rights here
Chieftain Thi-Sen welcomes you to his home
And hopes you come in peace He wishes to be good neighbors
But he does not wish you to remain on his planet
Listen, droid translate everything I say
And exactly as I say it
Would you like me to represent Pantora in this matter?
Not on your life, Senator There will be no diplomacy this time
Listen here, you savage, this world belongs to the moon of Pantora
And as the Supreme Chairman and exalted ruler of Pantora
you will not command me to leave this planet or do anything else
Your Majesty, we can't
Droid, tell him
Dear
I recommend a less confrontational discussion
The Talz are easily provoked
That didn't go over very well
Chairman, I promised the Talz that we would leave them in peace
This is now an internal affair of Pantora
The great Thi-Sen, son of suns
Asks again that you leave or it will mean war
Then war it is
Troopers, mount up and follow me
What's up, general?
You're goning to stay with the chairman until we can work things out
Protect him at all costs
Mount up We're moving out
Senator, you know a preemptive strike is illegal
Isn't there anything you can do to stop him?
I'm afraid not
He has proclaimed this conflict an internal affair
You could petition the Jedi council for an intervention
You mean, without his authorization?
There must be someone on your moon who could approve it
The speaker of the assembly He has the power
Let's get back to the base The storm is letting up
Maybe we can get a transmission through
Here they are Fire when you're in range
Sir, with all due respect we're only here to protect you
- Ambush - It's a trap Kill them
We're surrounded Defensive formation
Chairman, get down
We've got to hold out
Fall back First squad, cover the retreat
Retreat?
We can't retreat from these animals
Savages
The assembly has decided That the action of Chairman Cho are out of order
Senator Chuchi, you're given the authority to negotiate
A peaceful settlement between the sovereign planet of Pantora and the Talz
It is decided then
Pilot, let's get moving
Here they come
Senator, now that you have the authority
How do you plan on making peace with the Talz?
Actually, Master Jedi since you're far more experienced
I was hoping you could negotiate on Pantora's behalf
I'm afraid that's not possible, Senator
But I don't understand The Jedi serve the Senate
I must order you to...
Senator, it is your people the Talz are at war with
If the violence is to stop, it is you who must represent your people
Good to see you, sir
You okay, Rex?
It's just a scratch
What's going on?
We're in quite a mess, sir
11 dead, the rest wounded, including the Chairman
Chairman, can you hear me?
Senator, good
You much avenge me
As my final command as chairman of Pantora,
I order you to destroy the Talz
I'm afraid I cannot do that, Chairman
The Pantoran assembly has called you out of order
I am to negotiate peace
No
Impossible
Peace?
Never
I died for our people
Senator
Now is the time
Protocol droid, come with me
3PO, get going
Yes, Master Ani
Droid, translate for me
Yes, Mistress
To die for one's people
Is a great sacrifice
To live for one's people
An even greater sacrifice
I choose to live for my people
What do you choose?
He chooses to live as well
We will leave Orto-Plutonia
Under the watchful eyes of the Talz from this day forth
And recognize your sovereignty
As a free and equal people
Well done, Senator
Yes, most impressive
Thank you, Master Jedi
Now that you have created peace between your people and the Talz
Remember one crucial thing
Yes, Master Kenobi?
Make it last, Senator
Make it last
And be an example to others so not only this war
But every war waged may come to an end as well
I will, i promise you
