Did you just say 'Rathtar'?

Hey!

You're not hauling Rathtars

on this freighter, are you?

I'm hauling Rathtars.

Oh, great.

It's the Guavian Death Gang .

They must've tracked us from Nantoon.

What is a rathtar?

They are big and

they are dangerous.

You ever heard of the Trillia massacre?

- No.

- Good.

I got three of them

going to King Prana.

Three?

How did you get them on board?

We used to have a bigger crew.

Get below and stay there

until I say so.

And don't even think

about taking the Falcon.

What about BB-8?

He stays with me until

I get rid of the gang,

then you can have him back

and be on your way.

What about the Rathtars?

Where're you keeping them?

There's one.

What are you going to do?

Same thing I always do.

Talk my way out of it.

Do you?

Yes, I do.

Every time.

Han Solo,

you are a dead man.

Bala-Tik.

What's the problem?

The problem is that we

loaned you 50,000 for this job.

Can you see them?

No.

I heard you also borrowed

50,000 from Kanjiklub.

You know you can't

trust those little freaks.

How long we known each other?

- They have blasters.

- A lot of them.

Not long.

We want our money back now.

You think hunting Rathtars is cheap?

I spent that money.

Kanjiklub wants their investment back too.

I never made a deal with Kanjiklub!

Tell that to Kanjiklub.

Tasu Leech!

Good to see you!

You made another mistake, Solo.

This is your intention.

Boys! You both're gonna

get what I promised.

Have I ever not

deliver for you before?

Yeah.

Twice.

What was the second time?

Your game is old.

There's no one in the galaxy

left for you to swindle.

You have nowhere to hide.

That BB unit.

The First Order is looking

for one just like it.

And two fugitives.

First time I heard of it.

- Search the freighter.

- On it.

Wait, wait, wait...

If we close the blast doors in that

corridor, we can trap those gangs.

Close the blast doors from here?

Resetting the fuses should do it.

I got a bad feeling about this.

Oh, no.

"Oh no," what?

Wrong fuses.

Kill them!

And take the droid!

- This was a mistake!

- Huge!

How do they look?

They look like that.

- This way.

- Are you sure?

No!

No, no, no.

Finn!

Finn!

REY!

Get out of here!

Rey!

Finn!

Finn!

Get it off me!

Get off!

Get off!

Finn!

It had me!

But the door...

That was lucky.

I got the door.

Cover us!

AAWWW!

Chewie!

Are you okay?

Yeah.

Wow.

Come on!

Come on!

- Han

- You, close the door behind us.

You, take care of Chewie!

Awww!

Hey.

Where're you going?

Unkar Plutt installed

a fuel pump here.

If we don't prime that,

we're not going anywhere..

I hate that guy.

- And you could use a co-pilot.

- I got one, he's back there.

Watch the thrusters.

We're getting out of here in light speed.

From inside of a hanger?

Is that even possible?

I never ask that question

until after I've done it.

This is not how I thought

this day was going to go.

Angle the shield.

Hang on back there!

No problem!

Come on, baby,

don't let me down.

- What?

- Compressor.

Inform the First Order that

Han Solo has the droid they wanted.

And it's aboard the Millennium Falcon.

The droid will soon be

delivered to the Resistance,

leading them to the last Jedi.

If Skywalker returns,

the new Jedi will rise.

Supreme Leader, I take full responsibility....

General!

Our strategy must now change.

The weapon.

It is ready.

I believe the time

has come to use it.

We shall destroy the government

that supports the Resistance.

The Republic.

Without their friends to protect them,

the Resistance will be vulnerable.

And we will stop them

before they reach Skywalker.

Go,

oversee preparations.

Yes, Supreme Leader.

There has been an awakening.

Have you felt it?

Yes.

There's something more.

The droid we seek is

aboard the Millennium Falcon.

In the hands of your father,

Han Solo.

He means nothing to me.

Even you, Master of the Knights of Ren,

have never faced such a test.

By the grace of your training,

I will not be seduced.

We shall see.

We shall see.

- Electrical overload.

- I can fix that.

Coolant's leaking.

Try transferring auxiliary power to...

- secondary tank.

- Secondary tank.

I got it.

Chewie, come on!

I need help with

this giant hairy thing!

- Coming.

- Stop moving!

Ahhh!

- Chewie!

- He needs help.

You hurt Chewie,

you're going to deal with me!

Hurt him?

He almost kill me six times!

Which is fine.

If this hyperdrive blows,

there's going to be pieces

of us in three different systems.

What did you do?

I bypass the compressor.

Huh.

Move, ball.

Don't say that.

You did great, just rest.

Good job, kid.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

So.

Fugitive, huh?

The First Order wants the map.

Finn is with the Resistance.

I'm just a scavenger.

Let's see what you got.

- Should I?

- Go ahead.

This map is not complete,

it's just a piece.

Ever since Luke disappeared

people'd been looking for him.

Why did he leave?

He was training a

new generation of Jedi.

One boy, an apprentice,

turned against him, destroyed it all.

Luke felt responsible.

He just walked away

from everything.

Do you know what happened to him?

A lot of rumors, stories.

People who'd knew him best,

think he went looking for

the first Jedi Temple.

The Jedi were real?

I used to wonder

about that myself.

I thought it was a bunch

of mumbo jumbo.

A magical power holding

together good and evil,

the Dark side and the Light.

The crazy thing is...

It's true.

The Force, the Jedi.

All of it.

It's all true.

No, you rest.

You want my help?

You're getting it.

Going to see an old friend.

She'll get your droid home.

This is our stop.

I didn't know there was this

much green in the whole galaxy.

Hey, Solo, I'm not sure

what we're walking into here.

Did you just call me Solo?

Sorry, Han. Mr. Solo.

You should know,

I'm a big deal in the Resistance,

which puts a real target

on my back.

Are there any conspirators here?

Like First Order sympathizers?

Listen, "big deal".

You have another problem.

Women always figure out the truth.

Always.

You might need this.

I think I can handle myself.

I know you do.

That's why I'm giving it to you.

Take it.

You know how to use

one of those?

Yeah.

You pull the trigger.

A little bit more

truer than that.

You got a lot to learn.

You got a name?

Rey.

Rey.

I've been thinking about

bringing on some more crew, Rey.

A second mate.

Someone to help out.

Someone who can keep up with Chewie

and me, who appreciates the Falcon.

Are you offering me a job?

I wouldn't be nice to you.

I don't pay much.

You're offering me a job?

I'm thinking about it.

Well?

If you are, I'd be flattered.

But I have to go home.

Where?

Jakku?

I've already been away too long.

Chewie, checkout the ship

as best you can.

It's too bad.

Chewie kinda likes you.

Solo, why are we here again?

- To get your droid on a clean ship.

- Clean?

Do you think it was luck that

Chewie and I found the Falcon?
