Bo-Katan Kryze quotes from The Mandalorian

The Mandalorian

Thank you. I’ve been searching for more of our kind.

Bo-Katan Kryze

Well, lucky we found you first.

The Mandalorian

I’ve been quested to deliver this Child. I was hoping that... [as the trio remove their helmets] Where did you get that armor?

Kryze

This armor has been in my family for three generations.

The Mandalorian

You do not cover your face. You are not Mandalorian.

[to teammates] He’s one of them.

Koska Reeves

Dank farrik.

The Mandalorian

One of what?

Kryze

I am Bo-Katan of Clan Kryze. I was born on Mandalore and fought in the Purge. I am the last of my line. And you are a Child of the Watch.

The Mandalorian

The Watch?

Kryze

Children of the Watch are a cult of religious zealots that broke away from Mandalorian society. Their goal was to re-establish the ancient way.

The Mandalorian

There is only one way. The Way of the Mandalore. [flies away with the Child]

Bo-Katan Kryze

Where is it?

Where’s what?

Kryze

The Darksaber. Does he have it?!

If you’re asking, you already know.

Kryze

I’ll let you live. But you will take me to him.

You might let me live, but he won’t. [bites his teeth and commits suicide by triggering an electric charge]

The Mandalorian

Where can I find the Jedi?

Bo-Katan Kryze

Take the foundling to the city of Calodan on the forest planet of Corvus. There you will find Ahsoka Tano. Tell her you were sent by Bo-Katan. And thank you. Your bravery will not be forgotten. This is the Way.

Mando

This is the Way.

Bo-Katan Kryze

I will kill the Moff and retake what is rightfully mine. With the Darksaber restored to me, Mandalore will finally be within reach.

The Mandalorian

Help me rescue the Child and you can have whatever you want. He is my only priority.

Bo-Katan Kryze

What happened?

Cara Dune

He brought him in alive, that’s what happened. And now the New Republic’s gonna have to double the payment.

Moff Gideon

That’s not what she’s talking about. Why don’t you kill him now and take it? It’s yours now.

The Mandalorian

What is?

Gideon

The Darksaber. It belongs to you.

The Mandalorian

No... [offers it to Bo-Katan] it belongs to her.

Gideon

She can’t take it. It must be won in battle. In order for her to wield the Darksaber again, she would need to defeat you in combat.

The Mandalorian

I yield. It’s yours.

Gideon

[smug] Oh, no. [laughs] It doesn’t work that way. The Darksaber doesn’t have power. The story does. Without that blade, she’s a pretender to the throne.

Kryze

He’s right.

The Mandalorian

Come on, just take it.

Gideon

Well, perhaps she’ll get another crack at it.

I am going to Mandalore so that I may bathe in the Living Waters and be forgiven for my transgressions.

Bo-Katan Kryze

You are a fool. There's nothing magic about the mines of Mandalore. They supplied beskar ore to our ancestors and the rest is superstition. That planet has been ravaged, plundered, and poisoned.

Mando

You said that the curse was a lie. Make up your mind.

Kryze

If you want to go to the mines, be my guest. They're beneath the civic center in the city of Sundari.

Mando

Thank you. And I will find out if the planet is really poisoned.

Kryze

Goodbye, Din Djarin.

Bo-Katan Kryze

Here you go. The Living Waters. [sees Mando try to walk off] Hold on. I want you to get the full tour. [reads plaque] "These mines date back to the age of the first Mandalore. According to ancient folklore, the mines were once a Mythosaur lair. Mandalore the Great is said to have tamed the mythical beast. It is from these legends that the skull signet was adopted and became the symbol of our planet." This is it. [sees Mando beginning to wade] Din? Are you all right?

Mando

[reciting the Creed] I swear on my name. And the names of the Ancestors, that I shall walk the way of the Mand'alor... and the words of the Creed shall be forever forged in my heart... [suddenly drops out of sight]

Armorer

[tests the vial of Living Water in the forge vat] He speaks the truth. These are indeed the Living Waters. Din Djarin, you are redeemed. This is the Way.

This is the Way.

Armorer

And Bo-Katan Kryze, by Creed, you too are redeemed.

Bo-Katan Kryze

But I do not walk the Way.

Armorer

Did you bathe in the Waters?

Kryze

I did.

Armorer

And have you removed your helmet since?

Kryze

No, I have not.

Armorer

Then you may join our covert and live as your ancestors once did. You may leave anytime you wish. Until then, you are one of us. Welcome, Bo-Katan of Clan Kryze. This is the Way.

This is the Way.

Armorer

I can replace what's missing, but not with its modern refinements. Shall I inlay the signet of the Nite Owl?

Bo-Katan Kryze

Would it be acceptable to wear one pauldron of the Nite Owl and another with the Mythosaur?

Armorer

The Mythosaur belongs to all Mandalorians. It is always acceptable to wear.

Kryze

I would like that. [as the Armorer forges the new pauldron] What would you say if I told you I saw one?

Armorer

That you saw what?

Kryze

A Mythosaur.

Armorer

I would say you're very lucky. It is a noble vision.

Kryze

No, I... I mean a real one. Beneath the Living Waters on Mandalore.

Armorer

When you choose to walk the Way of the Mandalore, you will see many things.

Bo-Katan

But it was real.

Armorer

This is the Way.

Bo-Katan Kryze

Commissioner, we have some questions for you.

Sorry, I have to check the data farm for anomalies.

We know about the Nepenthé. And the nano-droids.

Kryze

They didn't malfunction. You programmed them to disrupt and attack.

Mando

You're coming with us.

[stands up and readies to press the droid killswitch] Everyone, freeze! If I trigger this failsafe, it will convert the planet's docile workforce back into battle droids and unleash them upon the unsuspecting citizens of Plazir! Don't make me do it.

Kryze

There's no way out, Commissioner. Give yourself up.

Give up? I never give up. I didn't give up to the corrupt Republic, I didn't give up to the Empire, and I won't give up to you.

Kryze

You're a Separatist?

Separatist is a pejorative term. I support democracy. Count Dooku was a visionary. He was cut short in his prime by the Jedi enforcer... [subdued by Kryze's taser dart]

Kryze

[to Mando] Politics.

Mando

Then she shall have it. This belongs to you.

Bo-Katan Kryze

It's not a gift to be given, no matter how well intended.

Mando

It's not a gift. While exploring Mandalore, I was captured. And this blade was taken from me. Bo-Katan rescued me and slayed my captor. She defeated the enemy that defeated me. Would this blade then not belong to her? Would it not belong to her?

It would.

Mando

I return this blade to its rightful owner. [gives Bo-Katan the Darksaber]

Bo-Katan Kryze

That's not true. I did surrender. [signals Koska Reeves to quiet down] After our forces were annihilated in the Night of a Thousand Tears and defeat was imminent, I met with Moff Gideon. The ISB had reached out to me to negotiate a cease-fire. In exchange for submitting to the Empire and disarming, all remaining cities and Mandalorian lives were to be spared. That is how Moff Gideon came to possess the Darksaber. I didn't trust him, but it was the only chance I had to save our people. And then he betrayed me and we were helpless to resist the Purge of Mandalore.

[referring to Mando and the Armorer] How did these others survive?

Armorer

We were hidden on the moon of Concordia.

Are you Death Watch?

Armorer

Death Watch exists no longer. It shattered into many warring factions.

Kryze

Our people have suffered time and again. From division and squabbling factions. Mandalore has always been too powerful for any enemy to defeat. It is always our own division that destroys us.

Moff Gideon

Thank you for gathering the Mandalorians into one place. You were a talented people, but your time has passed. However, as you can see, Mandalore will live on in me. Thanks to your planet's rich resources, I have created the next-generation Dark Trooper suit forged from Beskar alloy. And the most impressive improvement is that it has me in it. You see, every society has something to offer. The cloners. The Jedi. And even the Mandalorians. By aggregating the best of each, I will create an army that will bring order to the galaxy. Why don't we take your fleet off the board while we still have the element of surprise. [to commlink] Activate the interceptors and bombers.

Bo-Katan Kryze

[see TIE Interceptors and Bombers launching] No!

Moff Gideon

In but a few moments, the Purge of Mandalore will be complete. [to Stormtroopers about Mando] Take him to the debriefing room.

Kryze

I should have killed you when I had the chance.

Moff Gideon

Bo-Katan. We have to stop meeting like this.

Kryze

I'll make sure of it.

Moff Gideon

Let's skip the pleasantries, shall we? I believe this is the part where you return the Darksaber to its rightful owner. Now, surrender the Darksaber, and tell these people that this planet is mine.

This is the Way. [opens fire at the blast doors. Mandalorians follow]

Moff Gideon

[to Stormtroopers] Open the blast doors. Kill them.
