at committing high treason.

Perhaps Leader Snoke should

consider using a clone army.

My men are exceptionally trained.

Programmed from birth.

Then, they should have

no problem retrieving the droid,

unharmed.

Careful, Ren, that your personal interest

not interfere with orders from Leader Snoke.

I want that map.

For your sake,

I suggest you get it.

Water.

Water.

- Water.

- No.

There's no water?

Girl, your droid.

I want it.

- Huh?

- What?

Oi!

Get away from him!

Hey!

Huh?

Who are those people.

They work for Unkar.

Mistress! That man!

Who?

That man over there.

- Him?

- Yes.

He is wearing my master's jacket.

What is your hurry, thief?

What?

Thief?

Oww!

Hey! What?

The jacket.

This droid says you stole it.

I had a pretty

messed up day, alright?

So I'd appreciate it if

you'd stop accusing me...

- Ow! Stop it!

- Where did you get it?

It belongs to his master.

It belongs to Poe Dameron.

That was his name, right?

He was captured

by the First Order.

I helped him escape,

our ship crashed.

Poe didn't make it.

Ohhh.

I tried to help him

but I'm sorry.

So you're with the Resistance?

Obviously.

Yes, I am

I'm with the Resistance, yeah.

I'm with the Resistance.

I never met a

Resistance fighter before.

I was... that's what we look like.

Some of us.

Others look different.

BB-8 says he's on a secret mission.

He has to get back to your base.

Apparently he has a map

that leads to Luke Skywalker.

And everyone is after it.

Luke Skywalker?

I thought he was a myth.

What?

- What are you doing?

- Come on.

Come on, BB-8!

- Let go of me!

- Come on! We got to move!

I know how to run

without you holding my hand.

BB-8, stay close!

This way.

Call in the air strike.

They're shooting at both of us.

Yeah, they saw you with me.

You are marked.

Well, thanks for that.

Hey! I'm not the one to

take you down with a stick.

Does anyone have blasters around here?

Are you okay?

Shh. Shh.

Shhh.

Stop taking my hand!

Hey.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Follow me.

We can't outrun them!

We might.

In that Quad-Jumper!

Hey!

We need a pilot!

We got one.

You?

What about that ship?

That one's GARBAGE!

The garbage will do.

Gunner position is down there!

You ever fly this thing?

No!

This ship hasn't flown in years.

Great.

I can do this.

I can do this.

I can do this.

I can do this.

Hey!

That's mine!

Hold!

Stay low! Stay low!

What?

Stay low!

It confuses their tracking.

- BB-8, hold on.

- Whyee?

I'm going low!

What are you doing back there?

Are you ever going to fire back?

I'm working on it!

Are the shields up?

Not so easy without a co-pilot.

Try sitting in this thing.

- We need cover, quick.

- We're about to get some!

I hope.

Whoa.

Damn it.

Come on, come on!

Nice shot!

I'm getting pretty good at this.

Let's get down!

Alright. The cannon's stuck in

forward position. I can't move it.

You got to lose them.

Get ready!

Okay.

For what?

Are we really doing this?

Oh, no.

Whoa!

- That was some flying.

- Nice shooting.

- Thanks.

- How did you do that?

- I don't know.

- No one trained you?

But I've never left the planet.

- Your last shot was great.

- That was amazing.

You set me up for it.

- It was perfect.

- That was pretty good.

You're okay.

He's with the Resistance.

Hmm.

He's going to get you home.

We both will.

I don't know your name.

Finn.

What's yours?

I'm Rey.

Rey...

Help me with this.

Quick!

What-What's going on?

Sir, we were unable to

acquire the droid on Jakku.

He escaped capture on a stolen

Corellian YT model freighter.

The droid... stole a freighter?

Not exactly, sir.

It had help.

We have no confirmation,

but we believe FN-2187

may have helped him escape.

Anything else?

The two were accompanied by a girl.

What girl?

It's the motivator.

Grab me a Harris wrench.

Check in there.

- How bad is it?

- If we want to live, not good.

They're hunting for us now.

We got to get out of this system!

BB-8 says the location of the

Resistance base is 'need to know.'

If I'm taking you there,

I need to know.

This?

You got to tell us

where your base is.

What?

No.

I don't speak that.

Okay, between us,

I'm not with the Resistance, okay?

I'm just trying to get away

from the First Order.

But if you tell us

where the base is,

I'll get you there first.

Deal?

Droid, please!

Pilex driver, hurry.

- So,where is your base?

- Go on, BB-8, tell her .

Huh?

Eh.

Huh?

Eh.

Huh?

Please.

- The Ileenium System!

- Yes, the Ileenium System.

That's the one.

Get us there as fast as you can.

I need the engine tape, hurry.

- What about you?

- I got to get back to Jakku?

Back to Jakk... Why does everyone

want to go back to Jakku?

- It's not that one.

- That place is...

No.

No.

The one I'm pointing to.

No. No.

No!

If we don't patches up the

propulsion, the tank will overflow

and fill up this ship

with poisonous gas.

- This?

- Yes.

Hey, Rey,

you're a pilot.

You can fly anywhere.

Why go back?

You got a family?

You got a boyfriend?

A cute boyfriend?

None of your business, that's why.

- That can't be good.

- To the cockpit.

Someone's locked on to us.

All controls are overridden.

Get off.

Get off!

Do you see anything?

Oh, no.

It's the First order.

What do we do?

There must be something.

- You said poisonous gas.

- I fixed that.

Can you unfix it?

Come on, BB-8.

I got him.

I'm okay.

Do you think this work

on the Stormtroopers?

Yeah, their masks filter out

smoke not toxins.

Hurry, they're coming.

Chewie.

We're home.

Where are the others?

Where's the pilot?

I'm the pilot.

- You?

- She's lying.

No, it's true.

We're the only ones on board.

You can understand that thing?

And "that thing" can

understand you too, so watch it.

Come on out of there.

- Where did you get this ship?

- Niima Outpost.

Jakku?

That junkyard?

Thank you!

Junkyard.

I told you we should've double

check the Western Reaches.

Who had her?

Ducain?

I stole it.

From Unkar Plutt.

He stole it from the Irving Boys,

who stole it from Ducain.

Who stole it from me!

Well, you tell him that

Han Solo just stole back

the Millennium Falcon, for good

This is the "Millennium Falcon"?

You are Han Solo?

I used to be.

Han Solo, the Rebellion general?

No, the smuggler.

Wasn't he a war hero?

This is the ship that made

the Kessel Run in 14 parsecs.

12!

Hey!

Some moof milker put a compressor

on the ignition line.

Unkar Plutt did it.

I thought it was a mistake too.

Puts too much...

- ... stress on the hyperdrive.

- Stress on the hyperdrive.

Chewie, throw them in a pod.

We'll drop them on the

nearest uninhabited planet.

Wait, no!

We need your help.

My help?

This droid has to get to the

Resistance base as soon as possible.

He's carrying a map

to Luke Skywalker.

You are the Han Solo

that fought with the Rebellion.

You knew him.

Yeah, I knew him.

I knew Luke.

Don't tell me a

Rathtar's gotten loose.

Wait, what?
