Quotes 

• Greef Karga : [the Child tries to Force heal his wound]  He's trying to eat me.

• Bike Scout Trooper #1 : I'll give you 20 credits for the helmet.

  Greef Karga : Ha ha! Not a chance! That's going on *my* wall!

  The Mandalorian : [quietly]  On your wall?

  Greef Karga : [quietly]  Go with it.

• Cara Dune : [re: the Client's stormtrooper security detail]  This is bad. You said four.

  Greef Karga : Well, there are more. What can I tell you?

• Cara Dune : You said four. There are more than four troopers.

  Greef Karga : Four guarding the client. Many more here in town. Things got really heated once Mando crashed the safehouse.

• The Mandalorian : Let's go over the plan again.

  Greef Karga : We both enter the common house. We show the client the bait. We join him at the table. And you kill him.

  The Mandalorian : Tell me about his reinforcements.

  Greef Karga : They're all ex-Empire. As soon as they lose their paycheck, phew, they'll all scatter.

  The Mandalorian : And what if they don't?

  Greef Karga : They will.

  The Mandalorian : That's not good enough.

  Greef Karga : If, for argument's sake, a few of them don't realize that I'm their best path to alternative employment, and they elect to react impulsively, then these three fine Guild hunters, along with that battle-hardened shock trooper, will cut down anyone who bucks.

  The Mandalorian : How many will there be?

  Greef Karga : No more than four. He travels with, at most, a Fire Team. Trust me. Nothing can go wrong.

  [a winged beast attacks] 

• The Mandalorian : Bring me.

  Greef Karga : Bring you?

  The Mandalorian : Tell him you captured me. Get me close to him and I'll kill him.

  Greef Karga : That's a good idea. Give me your blaster.

  Cara Dune : This is insane.

  The Mandalorian : It's the only way.

  Cara Dune : Well, I'm coming with you.

  Greef Karga : No, no, no. That would them suspicious.

  Cara Dune : I don't care. I'm coming.

  The Mandalorian : Tell them she caught me.

  Greef Karga : Fine. Then she can bring the child.

  The Mandalorian : No. The kid goes back in the ship.

  Greef Karga : But without the child, none of this works!

  The Mandalorian : I have a plan. Kuill, ride back to the Razor Crest with the child and seal yourself in. When you're inside, engage ground security protocols. Nothing on this planet will breach those doors.

  Kuiil : Here's a comlink. I'll keep the child safe.

  [to Cara] 

  Kuiil : Don't forget to cover your stripes.

• Greef Karga : My friend, if you are receiving this transmission, that means you are alive. You might be surprised to hear this, but I am alive, too. I guess we can call it even. A lot has happened since we last saw each other. The man who hired you is still here, and his ranks of ex-Imperial guards have grown. They have imposed despotic rule over my city, which has impeded the livelihood of the Guild. We consider him an enemy, but we cannot get close enough to take him out. If you would consider one last commission, I will very much make it worth your while. You have been successful so far in staving off their hunters, but they will not stop until they have their prize. So here is my proposition. Return to Nevarro. Bring the child as bait. I will arrange an exchange, and provide loyal Guild members as protection. Once we get near the client, you kill him, and we both get what we want. If you succeed, you keep the child and I will have your name cleared with the Guild, for a man of honor should not be forced to live in exile. I await your arrival with optimism.

• Greef Karga : Sorry for the remote rendezvous, Mando, but things have gotten complicated since you were last here. It appears that introductions are in order. It seems we've both provided a security detail. I recommend the shock trooper guards the ship. These lava fields are lousy with Jawas.

  The Mandalorian : She's coming with me.

  Greef Karga : But the town is now run by ex-Empire. If a Rebel Dropper is with us, they'll all get their hackles up.

  The Mandalorian : She's coming.

  Greef Karga : Fine. Fine. At least cover your tattoo. No need to flaunt it.

• Greef Karga : There's something you should know. The plan was to kill you and take the kid. But after what happened last night, I couldn't go through with it. Go on. You can gun me down here and now and it wouldn't violate the Code. But if you do, this child will never be safe.

  Cara Dune : We'll take our chances.

  Greef Karga : The Imperial client is obsessed with obtaining this asset. You tried to run, but where did it get you?

  Cara Dune : This is ridiculous.

  Kuiil : Perhaps you should let him speak.

  Greef Karga : Listen, we both need the client to be eliminated. Let me take the child to him, and then you two...

  The Mandalorian : No.

  Cara Dune : Let's just kill him and get out of here.

  The Mandalorian : He's right.

  Cara Dune : [he holsters his blaster]  What are you doing?

  The Mandalorian : As long as the Imp lives, he'll send hunters after the child.

  Cara Dune : It's a trap.
