We're way off the edge of the map.

Wait.

L3's constructing a model of The Maelstrom.

She says we're approaching The Maw.

That doesn't sound like something

we wanna be approaching.

Hang on!

This is The Maw?

No, that's not The Maw. I don't know what this is.

That's a living thing.

There!

That's The Maw.

It's a gravity well.

I got an idea.

Don't fly toward it, Han!

See if it goes for this.

No, what are you doing? That's the escape pod!

I know.

Then why'd you do it?

That's why, baby.

She found a way out.

90 degrees, to the left... ish.

Left-ish.

I can't.

It's taking everything we got to stay out of The Maw.

It's pulling us in. We're stuck.

We have enough raw coaxium to power a dozen destroyers.

Inject it into the fuel line, it'll blow up the ship.

Not the fuel line.

But if we put one drop into the fusion reactor,

it might just...

Give us the kick we need.

All right, I'm on it!

I know, we're getting dragged in a circle.

Once we get lined up, it's gonna be a straight shot.

As soon as that coaxium ignites,

we're gonna tear out of here

and the second we're clear of The Maelstrom,

we jump to lightspeed.

Beckett!

Can't talk!

I see it.

Beckett, hurry up!

We only get one shot at this thing!

Shut up and let me do this!

Beckett, I'm gonna count you down!

Three!

Two!

Now!

Now?

Now!

Oh, shoot...

Chewie, when I tell you, kick out the thrusters

- and jump to lightspeed. - Wait, what are we...

Remember that alley we slipped through

in the Santhe Shipyards?

Yeah, I remember! I remember it didn't work.

This time it's gonna.

Punch it!

Savareen, this is Millennium Falcon.

We have coaxium that needs to be off-loaded immediately.

Like immediately, immediately!

We're here now...

...see you. I...

Just did the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs.

Not if you round down, buddy.

Yeah.

She is a hell of a ship.

I hate you.

I know.

I'm gonna be on my ship,

in my quarters,

waiting for you to bring me my share.

And then I don't ever wanna see you again.

Never?

Where's your boss?

Oh. Don't worry. He'll be here.

Then what?

Well, you delivered,

so you will get paid.

You can buy that ship.

You know that's not what I'm asking.

It can't happen.

Because you're with Dryden?

I'm not with him, but I owe him.

He helped me out of a bad situation.

And how long do you have to pay off that debt?

Everyone serves somebody, Han.

Even Dryden Vos.

Look, you don't want to make an enemy of Crimson Dawn

which is exactly what you and I would both be doing

if I left here with you.

I'm not afraid of Crimson Dawn.

I can take care of myself.

You know, I'm not the kid you knew

on Corellia anymore, Qi'ra.

- No? - No.

Then who are you?

I'm an outlaw.

What? I'm not kidding.

Okay.

Okay, outlaw, you can tell yourself that,

but I might be the only person in the whole galaxy

who knows what you really are.

Yeah.

What's that?

You are the good guy.

I am not the good guy.

I am definitely not a good guy.

I'm a terrible person.

Hey!

They say when the coaxium's refined,

we collect it up there.

So, I hear you make good brandy.

Beckett.

Don't.

You must've known you'd see me again.

I was counting on it.

Just didn't plan on it being so soon.

Of course now, you've got a problem.

Big problem.

You happen to notice that freighter down there?

You know what's on it?

About 30 hired guns.

All I gotta do is give 'em the signal,

you're surrounded.

Sorry. You do your thing.

By the time that coaxium gets refined,

Crimson Dawn will be here,

so you go ahead and kill us.

They're gonna kill you.

Perhaps there's a compromise,

one that doesn't involve so much killing.

They're marauders.

They don't care about anybody.

All they know how to do is kill.

I need a drink.

Bring them inside.

My mother once told me

about a band of mercenaries

that came to a peaceful planet.

They had a resource there these men coveted,

so they took it.

They kept coming back, taking more.

Until finally, the people resisted.

When they returned demanding their tribute,

the people shouted back in one voice, "No more!"

The mercenaries didn't like the sound of that,

so they cut off the tongue

of every last man, woman, and child.

Do you know what that pack of animals became?

Tell them.

Crimson Dawn and the rest of the five Syndicates

have committed unspeakable crimes

across the galaxy.

Says you.

No.

Says them.

Each of our worlds has been brutalized

by the Syndicates.

Crimson Dawn will use their profits

from the coaxium you stole

to tyrannize system after system

in league with the Empire.

And what would you use it for?

The same thing my mother would have used it for

if she had survived and still wore the mask.

To fight back.

We're not marauders.

We're allies

and the war has just begun.

You know we can't give the coaxium to Dryden Vos.

Joining the cause, Han Solo?

Just trying to make it out alive.

Got a plan?

Yeah, beginning of one.

Way to get our money

and get out from under the thumb

of Crimson Dawn at the same time.

Maybe get your girlfriend back while we're at it.

You don't tangle with Dryden.

Because unlike us, he actually does travel

with hired guns, his own private army.

So does Enfys.

Listen, here's what I got so far.

What do you think they're saying?

He's gonna try to help you.

I see.

Lot of ways it could go south, and only one where it doesn't.

That's why I need my partner.

Not this time.

I'm leaving.

If you're smart, you'll come with me.

I thought you didn't believe in running.

I prefer it to dying.

If by some miracle you make it out of here,

find me on Tatooine.

What's on Tatooine?

Heard about a job,

big shot gangster putting together a crew.

That'll be the one.

The one?

My last score.

Yeah, I still got some debts to pay

before I can head back to Glee Anselm

and get into the valachord.

Welcome home.

He's waiting for you.

Thanks, Toht.

Weapons.

I didn't bring 'em.

They're fine.

We're gonna win.

It's not that kind of game, Han.

The object isn't to win.

It's just to stay in it as long as you can.

You don't know everything.

No.

Just a bit more than you.

I knew it!

My men, they all said,

"There's no way they pull this off."

"Qi'ra's not ready." That's what they said,

but I had faith anyway.

Where's Beckett?

Beckett didn't make it.

Tell me.

Job took a bad turn on Kessel.

He died saving my life.

How are you holding up? You all right?

I'm okay.

All right, good.

Colo claw fish, anyone?

- No. Thank you. - No?

You know, whatever Beckett's shortcomings may have been,

I always admired him.

He was a man of principles.

When he made a commitment, he honored it

and I think we can all take solace

in knowing how proud he would've been

to see you here, following his example.

Han and Chewbacca behaved admirably.

They'll make reliable smugglers,

should we ever have the need

when they get their own ship.

Qi'ra. Come here.

We'd really appreciate the opportunity

to work for you again, sir.

I would've been inconsolable

if anything had happened to you, my dear.

I have no one else in my life

that I trust in the way that I trust you.

Well, I guess we'll just take our payment

and get going.

I'm sure you've got competitors to crush...

What?

...and black markets to dominate.

Oh. Show me what you've brought me first.

You want me to open it?

Oh, yes, Han. I really do.

Bring me one.

I don't think that's a good idea, Dryden.

It's very explosive stuff.

I never ask for anything twice, Han.

Careful.

It's magnificent.

How'd you do it?

Wasn't easy.

No, I mean, how'd you do it?

It looks exactly like the real thing.

That's 'cause it is the real thing.

Yes, and I'm saying

I would believe you. It's that good.

But my associate already told me

about your plan to rob me of my money

and give the real coaxium to Enfys Nest.

Dryden, I don't know what you're thinking

or what Qi'ra may have told you...

No, not Qi'ra. Not Qi'ra.

Qi'ra, it turns out

has a weak spot for you,

and we'll deal with that later.

No, I'm talking about my other associate.

Can you come in and join us, please?

I am sorry, kid.

Why?

Come on.

Don't look at me like that.

You weren't paying attention.

I told you, "Don't trust anybody."

Am I wrong about that?

Uh-uh-uh.

Back away from that.

Put your paws where I can see 'em.

Check that lid.

Clever.

It's too late.

Coaxium's refined, and Enfys has it.

Well, we figured that.

Drop your weapons.

It's over. We got them.

And there we have it.

Excellent work, Aemon, thank you.

Qi'ra, help me.

Tell me what to do.

What would you do

if the person you most trusted in the world

betrayed you?

I would want to know why.

If it was a moment of weakness

or something else.

And then what?

And then, I would ask that person

to prove their loyalty

by sacrificing something they love.

I tried to warn you about her.

You know, you're wrong about one thing.

What?

I was paying attention.

You told Chewie people are predictable.

You're no exception.

It's empty.

The case is empty.

Aemon, what's going on? What's happening there?

Aemon?

Talk to me.

I hope you didn't send all your fancy enforcers

because that would leave you

a little shorthanded around here.

So,

if that case is empty, then the real coaxium...

Leaves here with one of us.

Beckett, what are you doing?

Thinking.

And I prefer to be the only one

holding a blaster while I'm doing it.

Han, grab that coaxium,

put it in the case.

Big stuff, you're coming with me.

Don't do this, Beckett.

- We had a deal. - Yeah.

I'm sorry,

but I'm also an entrepreneur.

I mean, you of all people understand that.

Come on, let's go.

You're making a huge mistake.

Won't be my first.

It's gonna be your last.

Maybe.

Why you gotta be so negative?

Han,

now's as good a time as any

to reevaluate our relationship.

How so?

I was just thinking,

why don't we join forces and go get Beckett together?

That is a great idea. Let's do it. You go first.

Oh, Han.

You can't win, Han, and even if you could,

you'd spend the rest of your life

looking over your shoulder.

You know what?

I'm kind of getting used to the idea.

I'm sorry.

Han, she's done things that

you could never understand, but I do.

I understand her completely.

Once you're a part of Crimson Dawn,

you can't leave.

It's not true.

I know you.

It's what I was taught.

Find your opponent's weakness,

and use it,

and today...

I'm yours.

I had to.

Yeah. No, I mean, you did...

You did.

Beckett and Chewbacca, you have to go after them.

What are you gonna do?

Well, if we give all the coaxium to Enfys,

we're gonna need something to buy our ship with.

- Qi'ra... - Go and save Chewbacca.

He needs you and you're gonna need him, too.

Smile.

That's the word.

Whenever I imagined myself

off with you on some adventure...

Always makes me smile.

Go. I'm right behind you.

Yes?

I regret to inform you that Dryden Vos is dead,

murdered by the thief he hired

to steal the coaxium shipment,

his friend,

Tobias Beckett.

Is that so?

Where is the shipment now?

Gone.

Beckett took it.

Slaughtered the others. I alone survived.

One man couldn't have done this alone.

I wasn't there,

but if I had been, perhaps I could have saved him.

Bring the ship and come to me on Dathomir

and you and I will then decide

what to do about the traitor, Beckett,

and his accomplices.

I'm on my way.

Qi'ra,

you and I

will be working much more closely

from now on.

You're relentless. I'll give you that.

Came as fast as I could, buddy.

Dryden dead?

Qi'ra kill him?

Still don't get it, do you, kid?

It was never about you.

She's a survivor.

You know what your problem is?

You think everybody's like you.

Not you, kid.

You're nothing like me.

I hope you're still paying attention

because now I'm gonna tell you the most important...

You made the smart move, kid.

For once.

I woulda killed you.

I really was gonna learn to play that valachord.

I know.

That's it. It's all loaded.

Do you know what that really is?

Yeah.

About 60 million credits worth of refined coaxium.

No.

It's the blood that brings life to something new.

Yeah, what?

A rebellion.

You could come with us, you know.

We need warriors and leaders like you.

Maybe someday you'll feel different.

Don't hold your breath, kid.

Don't lose that.

Very few people have actually seen

the StarCave Nebula.

It's breathtaking.

Not unlike your eyes.

How much do you know about intertwined celestial bodies?

Because I happen to be something of an authority.

By the way...

Han!

You're alive!

Yeah, no thanks to you.

I should have Chewie rip your arms off.

In fact, Chewie, do it.

Hey, Han! We are friends.

You know that. We're friends. All right?

Oh, look at you.

Thought he was gonna rip your arms off.

I knew you were kidding.

No, you didn't.

- So, where's my cut? - Your cut?

No, I don't think so. We barely made it out alive.

All we ended up with was that.

Mmm-mmm.

Figure it's worth about 10,000,

maybe enough for a decent buy-in.

You want a rematch?

Why not?

You fold now,

you walk away with enough

to get yourself your own little ship.

You call,

I'm gonna clean you out again.

I don't know, I'm feeling lucky.

Ooh.

You really have it bad for the Falcon, don't you?

It's mutual, trust me. She belongs with me.

You got everything you need there, pal?

Not bad.

Not bad. You know,

if you'd only had this little green sylop,

you would've beaten this.

Fair and square, baby. Fair and square.

Beckett said he heard about this

very big gangster putting together a job.

No, I'm telling ya,

it's gonna be great.

When have I ever steered you wrong?
