I meant in the last five minutes! That bit we developed? About the IG-RM droid trying to kill you, and then you trying to kill the droid…it’s so us! Can’t you feel the connection—
SANA STARROS:
No. Sorry, Aphra, nothing personal.
APHRA:
Murder is always personal, Sana! Especially when it’s mine!
PRINCESS LEIA:
Sana! This is not happening! This is not who we are!
SANA STARROS:
Speak for yourself, Princess.
APHRA:
No, really. This is who she is.
ENEB RAY:
If this isn’t who you are, Princess Leia, then we’re doomed. The entire Rebellion.
PRINCESS LEIA:
Sana, put down that blaster! And you, whoever you are, stop trying to —
ENEB RAY:
I am who you made me, Princess. You sent me to them.
APHRA (narration):
The mysterious intruder removed his helmet. His face wasn’t one I recognized. Humanoid. Scarred. Eyes so haunted, I had to look away.
ENEB RAY:
You can’t be surprised that I came back changed.
PRINCESS LEIA:
No. It can’t…Eneb? Eneb Ray…?
APHRA:
Are we supposed to know who that is?
SANA STARROS:
I can’t hear you, you’re already dead.
PRINCESS LEIA:
Eneb, what…
ENEB RAY:
So you do remember me?
PRINCESS LEIA:
You were one of us. The best spy we ever put in the field. After Coruscant, we looked all over for you. We thought you must have died with the others.
ENEB RAY:
Oh, his touch will definitely kill me. It’s just going to take its time.
PRINCESS LEIA:
Whose touch? Eneb, what’s happened to you? You need to come home and let us help—
ENEB RAY:
I’m not the one who needs help, Princess. You’ve got five seconds to save your friends. And this war.
Kill the Imperial. Or your friends die.
APHRA:
Wait a second! I’m not technically an Imperial…
ENEB RAY:
One!
PRINCESS LEIA:
Wait…Eneb, please…
ENEB RAY:
Two!
SANA STARROS:
Princess, if you won’t take care of this, I will—
PRINCESS LEIA:
No, Sana, don’t you—
ENEB RAY:
Three!
SANA STARROS:
Sorry, Aphra. Sorta.
APHRA:
You’d kill me to save Solo? Really?
ENEB RAY:
Four!
PRINCESS LEIA:
I’m sorry I failed you, Eneb. But I’m not about to fail my friends.
ENEB RAY:
You just did. Five.
PRINCESS LEIA:
Artoo! Now!
R2-D2 (on comm):
WHRRR-BOOP!
C-3PO (on comm):
Oh, thank the Maker. I finally feel like I’ve recovered my bearings after that vicious bout of hand-to-hand combat. What’s happening? Is that Princess Leia I’m hearing?
R2-D2 (on comm):
WHRR-WOO WEE BOOP!
C-3PO (on comm):
What do you mean I should hold on to something?
R2-D2 knocks out the prison’s gravity with an ion pulse.
ENEB RAY:
Wha…Why are we floating?
PRINCESS LEIA:
Ion pulse. No gravity. Your trigger’s down, Eneb. And so are you.
Leia punches Eneb in the face.
APHRA:
