Star Wars: The Clone Wars · Season 1
I like to think I'm merely exercising my freedom to choose: to choose not to kill for a living.
That is not your choice to make. You swore an oath to the Republic. You have a duty.
I have a duty. You're right, but it's to my family. Does that count, or do you still plan to turn me in?
Do I have a choice?
You and I may be clones, but we're still individuals. You have a name rather than a number, Captain. Why is that?
Perhaps our leaders feel it's a more efficient way of distinguishing us.
More efficient than a number? I doubt the Kaminoans think that way.
Come on, Rex, admit it. You've thought about what your life could look like if you were to also leave the army, choose the life you want.
What if I am choosing the life I want? What if I'm staying in the army because it's meaningful to me?
And how is it meaningful?
Because I'm part of the most pivotal moment in the history of the Republic. If we fall then our children and their children could be forced to live under an evil I can't well imagine.
If you were to have children, of course. But that would be against the rules, wouldn't it? Isn't that what somebody programmed you to believe, Captain?
No, Cut, it's simply what I believe. It doesn't matter if it's my children or other people's children. Does that mean with your approval?
Perfectly. "To each his own." That's what I always say.
What does that mean, Daddy?
It means you can do anything with your life that you want to.
[points to shuttle] Concentrate your fire on that ship!
[several shots]
Hey, they're shooting at us! Coming back around.
Sir, that ship's coming around for another landing attempt!
Keep firing. Don't let that ship land!
The guns are overheated!
[shakes head] Always something... Cody, Jesse, cover me! [jumps toward Grievous]
[Grievous escapes on his ship]
Are you all right, sir?
No. We're right back where we started. Call the cruisers. See if they can catch that ship.
Right away, sir.
And tell them to send someone to pick us up.
I know you think I'm a coward, Rex, but believe me, I'll fight to my last breath to keep them safe.
Captain Rex, are you going to turn in my husband?
Sorry, Suu. It's my duty... But, in my condition, I probably won't remember any of this.
Thank you.
You're still a deserter, Cut, but you're certainly not a coward.
Car Affa is an arms dealer selling Republic weapons on the black market.
Who is he selling them to?
The Separatists. According to intelligence, he's inside this joint. You stay here in case he tries to escape.
Hmm, just like always.
I'm sure if you explain your loss to your master, he'll understand.
No. He tells me over and over, "Your lightsaber is your life. Don't lose it."
A thief stole my lightsaber, and I only got a quick look at him. I could tell he definitely came from one of the aquatic planets. You know, one of the water worlds?
So you're saying there was something fishy about him? [Laughs. Ahsoka is not amused]
Hey! You're driving too slow! We need to go faster!
Patience! We'll cut them off in the train station!
How do you know they're headed there?!
Did I mention I planted a tracking device on Ione, the girl that ran away?
No.
For a guy that moves slow, you always seem to get ahead of me.
The value of moving slowly is that one can always clearly see the way ahead.
I have no doubt the Jedi are doing their very best to ensure the safety of every citizen in the Republic. The accusations that the Jedi created the Clone War to give themselves more power over the government is absurd, and I will not stand for it.
Well, Master Kenobi, my shining Jedi Knight to the rescue again.
After all these years, you're even more beautiful than ever.
Kind words for a man who accuses me of treachery.
Remember that you are here under my protection. Please try not to cause problems where none yet exist.
Think of me as searching for solutions.
I have to tell you, I'm opposed to all of this.
I'd be disappointed if you weren't.
