This post follows the adventures of father-and-child or bounty-hunter-and-green-baby-alien tandem of The Mandalorian (Pedro Pascal) and The Child (also known as Baby Yoda) in Disney+’s The Mandalorian.

Baby Yoda continues to touch things he should not touch and discovers (some of) the range of the prowess of his tiny three-fingered hands. The Mandalorian finds old and new allies to help him and his adoptive son in fighting the evil Imps (Imperial army). While the audience is introduced to new enemies, some wielding weapons more powerful than others, sorrowful adieus are in order to some beloved organic and inorganic characters.

The following are quotes from Disney+ The Mandalorian:

The Mandalorian Chapter 5: The Gunslinger Quotes:

Man: I can bring you in warm or I can bring you in cold.

The Mandalorian: That’s my line.

“I am gonna have to rotate that. You got a fuel leak. Look at that, this is a mess. How did you even land? That’s gonna set you back.” – Peli Motto (Amy Sedaris)

“Did that bounty hunter leave you all alone in that big nasty ship?” – Peli Motto

“Now, here’s the plan. I am going to look after you until The Mandalorian gets back, and then I’m gonna charge him extra for watching you. You see how that works? Yeah, bright eyes? We’re a team.” – Peli Motto

“It’s okay. You woke it up. Do you have any idea how long it took me to get it to sleep?” – Peli Motto

“Not so fast! You can’t just leave a child all alone like that. You know, you have an awful lot to learn about raisin’ a young one. Anyway, I started the repair on the fuel leak. There you go. I had a couple setbacks I want to talk to you about. You know, I didn’t use any droids, as requested, so it took me a lot longer than I expected. But I figured you were good for the money since you have an extra mouth to feed.” – Peli Motto

“Looks like you’re stuck with me now, partner!” – Toro Calican (Jake Cannavale)

Toro Calican: Tusken Raiders. I heard the locals talking about this filth.

The Mandalorian: Tuskens think they’re the locals. Everyone else is just trespassing.

Toro Calican: Whatever they call themselves, they best keep their distance.

The Mandalorian: Yeah? Why don’t you tell them yourself?

Toro Calican: Mando! What happened?

The Mandalorian: Sniper bolt. Only an MK-modified rifle could make that shot.

Toro Calican: Are you all right?

The Mandalorian: Yeah. Hit me in the beskar, and at that range beskar held up.

Toro Calican: Wait, I don’t wear any beskar.

The Mandalorian: Nope.

“Watch her, and don’t let her get near the bike. She’s no good to us dead.” – The Mandalorian (Pedro Pascal)

“The Mandalorian. His armor alone’s worth more than my bounty.” – Fennec Shand (Ming-Na Wen)

“Then think what it would do for your reputation. A Mandalorian shot up the Guild on Nevarro, took some high value target and went rogue.” – Fennec Shand

Fennec Shand: Like I said, you don’t see many. You bring the Guild that traitor, and they’ll welcome you with open arms. Your name will be legendary.

Toro Calican: How can we be sure he’s the one?

Fennec Shand: Word is, he still has the target with him. Some say it’s a child. Look, if you’re afraid to take him on, fear not. I can help you with that. Take some advice, kid. You wanna be a bounty hunter? Make the best deal for yourself and survive.

Toro Calican: That’s good advice, but if I took those binders off of you I’d be a dead man. And if the Mandalorian’s worth more than you are, well, who wouldn’t want to be a legend? Thanks for the tip.

“You’re smarter than you look.” – Peli Motto

“Fennec was right. Bringing you in won’t just make me a member of the Guild, it’ll make me legendary.” – Toro Calican

The Mandalorian Chapter 6: The Prisoner Quotes:

“Mando, is that you under that bucket?” – Ranzar “Ran” Malk (Mark Boone Junior)

“You know the policy, no questions” – Ran Malk

“What’s the look? Is that gratitude?” – Ran Malk

“Yeah, we were all young, tryin’ to make a name for ourselves. Yeah, but runnin’ with a Mandalorian, that was that brought us some reputation.” – Ran Malk

Ran Malk: Target practice. We did some crazy stuff, didn’t we

The Mandalorian: That was a long time ago.

Ran Malk: Well, well, I don’t go out anymore. You understand? So, Mayfeld, he’s gonna run point on this job. If he says it, it’s like it’s comin’ from me. You good with that?

The Mandalorian: You tell me.

Ran Malk: You haven’t changed one bit.

Mayfeld: Yeah, well, things have changed around here.

Ran Malk: Yeah, well, Mayfeld, he’s one of the best triggermen I’ve ever seen. Former Imperial sharpshooter.

The Mandalorian: That’s not saying much.

Mayfeld: I wasn’t a stormtrooper, wiseass.

“Razor Crest? I can’t believe that thing can fly. Looks like a Canto Bight slot machine. All right. The good-lookin’ fellow there with the horns, that’s Burg. This may surprise you, but he’s our muscle.” – Mayfeld (Bill Burr)

“So, this is a Mandalorian. I thought they’d be bigger.” – Burg (Clancy Brown)

“Tell me why I shouldn’t cut you down where you stand?” – Xi’an (Natalia Tena)

Xi’an: This is shiny. You wear it well.

Mayfeld: Do we need to leave the room or something?

Ran Malk: Well, Xi’an’s been a little heartbroken since Mando left our group.

Mayfeld: Aw. You gonna be okay, sweetheart?

Xi’an: Oh, I’m all business now. Learned from the best.

Ran Malk: All right, lovebirds. Break it up ‘till you get on the ship. Right now we don’t have much time.

Burg: Tiny.

“That’s a New Republic prison ship. Your man wasn’t taken by a rival syndicate. He was arrested.” – The Mandalorian

Zero: Despite recent modifications, the ship is still quite a mess. The power lines are leaking, the navigation is intermittent, and the hyperdrive is only operating at 67.3% efficiency. We have much better ships. Why are we using this one?

Ran Malk: ‘Cause the Razor Crest is off the old Imperial and the New Republic grid. It’s a ghost.

Mayfeld: Yeah, and we need a ship that can get close enough to jam New Republic code. So, when we drop out of hyperspace here, if we immediately bank into this kinda attitude, we should be right in their blind spot, which will give us just enough time for your ship to scramble our signal.

The Mandalorian: It’s not possible. Even for the Crest.

Ran Malk: That’s why he’s flyin’. Mando, I know you’re a pretty good pilot, but we need you on the trigger. Not on the wheel.

Zero: Don’t worry, Mandalorian. My response time is quicker than organics. And I’m smarter, too.

Ran Malk: All right. Yeah. That’s good. Forgive the programming. He’s a little rough around the edges. But he is the best.

The Mandalorian: How can you trust it?

Ran Malk: You know me, Mando. I don’t trust anybody. Just like the good old days, Mando. Huh?

Burg: Someone tell me why we even need a Mandalorian.

Mayfeld: Well, apparently they’re the greatest warriors in the galaxy. So they say.

Burg: Then why are they all dead?

Xi’an: See, I know who you really are.

Mayfeld: He never takes off the helmet?

Xi’an: This is the Way.

Mayfeld: I wonder what you look like under there. Maybe he’s a Gungan. Is that why yousa don’t wanna show your face? (You ever seen his face?

Xi’an: A lady never tells.

Mayfeld: Come on, Mando. We all gotta trust each other here. You gotta show us somethin’. Come on. Just lift the helmet up. Come on. Let’s all see your eyes.

“You get lonely up here, buddy? Huh? Wait a minute. Did you two make that? Huh? What is it, like a pet or somethin’?” – Mayfeld

Xi’an: Didn’t take you for the type. Maybe that code of yours has made you soft.

Mayfeld: Me, I was never really into pets. Yeah, I didn’t have the temperament. Patience, you know? I mean, I tried, but never worked out. But I’m thinkin’ maybe I’ll try again with this little fella. Huh?

“Useless droid didn’t even give us a proper countdown.” – Xi’an

“The Razor Crest is scrambling our signature and I am inside the prison system. It’s impressive that this gunship had survived the Empire without being impounded.” – Zero (Richard Ayoade)

“Make sure you clean up your mess.” – Mayfeld

Mayfeld: Hey, wait, what about your sister?

Qin: What about her?

Mayfeld: Nice family.

“Mando always did hate droids.” – Qin (Ismael Cruz Córdova)

“Let’s see your face, Mandalorian.” – Burg

Qin: You killed the others.

The Mandalorian: They got what they deserved.

Qin: You kill me, you don’t get your money. Whatever Ran promised, I’ll make sure you get it, and more. Come on, Mando. Come on, Mando. Be reasonable. Huh? You were hired to do a job, right? So do it. Isn’t that your code? Aren’t you a man of honor?

Ran Malk: Where are the others?

The Mandalorian: No questions asked. That’s the policy, right?

Ran Malk: Yeah. That is the policy.

The Mandalorian: I did the job.

Ran Malk: Yeah, you did.

The Mandalorian: Just like the good old days.

Ran Malk: Yeah, just like the good old days.

Ran Malk: Kill him.

Qin: What’s this?

Ran Malk: That bastard.

Man 1: I got a clear signal on the tracking beacon.

Man 2: Copy that.

Qin: Are those X-wings? Yep.

Man 1: That’s definitely a tracking beacon.

Man 2: Looks like they’re launching a gunship.

Woman 1: Copy. Goin’ in. (

“I told you that was a bad idea.” – The Mandalorian

The Mandalorian Chapter 7: The Reckoning Quotes:

“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 (Carl Weathers)

Cara Dune: Pay up, mudscuffers! Come on. That’s mine, thank you. All right, thank you.

The Mandalorian: Looking for some work?

The Mandalorian: It seems like a straightforward operation. They’re providing the plan and firepower. I’m the snare.

Cara Dune: With the kid?

The Mandalorian: That’s why I’m coming to you.

Cara Dune: I don’t know. I’ve been advised to lay low. If anybody runs my chain code, I’ll rot in a cell for the rest of my life.

The Mandalorian: I thought you were a veteran.

Cara Dune: Come back soon. I’ve been a lot of things since. Most of them carry a life sentence. If I so much as book passage on a ship registered to the New Republic, I’m …

The Mandalorian: I have a ship. I can bring you there and back with a handsome reward. You can live free of worry.

Cara Dune: I’m already free of worry, and I’m not in the mood to play soldier anymore. Especially fighting some local warlord.

The Mandalorian: He’s not a local warlord. He’s Imperial.

Cara Dune: I’m in.

Cara Dune: Does your contact need to vet me?

The Mandalorian: Doesn’t know you’re coming.

Cara Dune: Really? That could be a problem.

The Mandalorian: It won’t. But if it is, that’s his problem.

Cara Dune: He all right up there alone?

The Mandalorian: Yeah. Pick one.

Cara Dune: You trust the contact?

The Mandalorian: Not particularly. He and I had a run-in last time I was there on some Guild business.

Cara Dune: So then why are we going?

The Mandalorian: I don’t have a choice. You saw what happened on Sorgan. They’ll keep sending hunters. The kid will never be safe until the Imp is dead.

Cara Dune: And you’re okay with bringing him back there?

The Mandalorian: Not really. That’s why I’m bringing you.

Cara Dune: We need someone to watch that thing.

The Mandalorian: Yeah.

Cara Dune: You got anyone you can trust?

Kuiil: It hasn’t grown much.

The Mandalorian: I think it might be a Strand-Cast.

Kuiil: I don’t think it was engineered. I’ve worked in the gene farms. This one looks evolved. Too ugly. This one, on the other hand, looks like she was farmed in the Cytocaves of Nora.

The Mandalorian: This is Cara Dune. She was a shock trooper.

Kuiil: You were a Dropper?

Cara Dune: Did you serve?

Kuiil: On the other side, I’m afraid. But I’m proud to say that I paid out my clan’s debt, and now I serve no one but myself.

IG-11: Would anyone care for some tea?

Kuiil: Please lower your blasters. He will not harm you.

The Mandalorian: That thing is programmed to kill the baby.

Kuiil: Not anymore. It was left behind in the wake of your destruction. I found it laying where it fell. Devoid of all life. I recovered the flotsam and staked it as my own in accordance with the Charter of the New Republic. Little remained of its neural harness. Reconstruction was quite difficult but not impossible. It had to learn everything from scratch. This is something that cannot be taught with the twist of a spanner. It requires patience and repetition. I spent day after day reinforcing its development with patience and affirmation. It developed a personality as its experiences grew.

The Mandalorian: Is it still a hunter?

Kuiil: No. But it will protect.

IG-11: Tea?

The Mandalorian: I’ve run into some problems.

Kuiil: I figured as much. Why else would you return?

The Mandalorian: I wanna hire your services.

Kuiil: I’m retired from service.

The Mandalorian: I can pay you handsomely, Ugnaught.

Kuiil: I have a name. It is Kuiil.

The Mandalorian: I need someone to protect the little one, Kuiil. Kuiil: I’m not suited for such work. I can reprogram IG-11 for nursing and protocol.

The Mandalorian: No. I don’t want that droid anywhere near him. Kuiil: Why’re you so distrustful of droids?

The Mandalorian: It tried to kill him.

Kuiil: It was programmed to do so. Droids are not good or bad. They are neutral reflections of those who imprint them.

The Mandalorian: I’ve seen otherwise.

Kuiil: Do you trust me?

The Mandalorian: From what I can tell, yes.

Kuiil: Then you will trust my work. IG-11 will join me. And we do it not for payment, but to protect the child from Imperial slavery. None will be free until the old ways are gone forever.

The Mandalorian: Okay.

Kuiil: And the blurrgs will join me as well.

The Mandalorian: The blurrgs?

Kuiil: I have spoken.

The Mandalorian: No! No, no! Stop! We’re friends, we’re friends. Cara is my friend!

Cara Dune: That is not okay!

Kuiil: Hmm. Very curious.

Cara Dune: Curious? It almost killed me!

Kuiil: The story you told me of the mudhorn now makes more sense.

The Mandalorian: What is it?

Kuiil: What it is, I don’t know. But what it does, this, this I’ve heard rumors of.

Cara Dune: What? When you worked for the Empire?

Kuiil: When I was sold to the Empire, in indentured servitude.

Cara Dune: Yet somehow, you walk free.

Kuiil: I bought my freedom through the skill of my hands and the labor of three of your human lifetimes. Do not cast doubt upon that of what I am nor whom I shall serve.

The Mandalorian: Tell you what. I could really use your craftwork right now. Can you pad this container so the child can sleep better? Kuiil: I shall fabricate a better one. Then perhaps this Dropper can see how one can win their freedom with the skill of one’s hands.

IG-11: I have prepared second meal. Would you care to be served here or below?

The Mandalorian: I’m not hungry. Under no circumstances does that thing leave the ship.

Cara Dune: You got a real thing for droids, don’t you?

The Mandalorian: I got a real thing for that droid.

Cara Dune: The Ugnaught said he rewired it.

The Mandalorian: That droid was designed to kill things. I don’t care how much wiring he replaced. It goes against its nature.

Cara Dune: Well, it shouldn’t be a long job anyway. We take out the head Imp, the rest will run like rats.

“So, this little bogwing is what all the fuss was about. What a precious little creature. I can see why you didn’t want to harm a hair on its wrinkled little head. Well, I’m glad this matter will be put to rest once and for all.” – Greef Karga

“I guess the little bugger’s a carnivore. Never seen anything like it. They were ready to pay a king’s ransom for that thing. Must be for some kind of highfalutin menagerie.” – Greef Karga

The Mandalorian: Tell me about his reinforcements.

Greef Karga: They’re all ex-Empire. As soon as they lose their paycheck, poof, 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.

“Trust me. Nothing can go wrong.” – Greef Karga

Kuiil: He’s hurt badly.

Greef Karga: I’m fine, I’m fine. I’m fine. I’m fine.

Cara Dune: Hold still. They got you good.

The Mandalorian: How bad?

Cara Dune: Bad. The poison’s spreading fast.

Greef Karga: So this is how it happens.

Cara Dune: Don’t be so dramatic. I need another medpac! Got any other medpacs? Anyone?

Greef Karga: I’m guessing that’s a ‘no’.

Cara Dune: It’s still spreading. This isn’t working. Get this thing outta here.

Kuiil: Wait.

Greef Karga: He’s trying to eat me.

Greef Karga: I guess this is it. 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 outta here.

The Mandalorian: He’s right.

Cara Dune: 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.

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 make 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. But without the child, none of this works!

The Mandalorian: I have a plan. Kuiil, 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 will keep the child safe. Don’t forget to cover your stripes.

The Mandalorian: Let’s go.

Greef Karga: Look what I brought you. As promised.

The Client: What exquisite craftmanship. It is amazing how beautiful beskar can be when forged by its ancestral artisans. Can I offer you a libation to celebrate the closing of our shared narrative?

Greef Karga: I would be obliged.

The Client: Please sit. It is a shame that your people suffered so. Just as in this situation, it was all avoidable. Why did Mandalore resist our expansion? The Empire improves every system it touches. Judge by any metric. Safety, prosperity, trade, opportunity, peace. Compare Imperial rule to what is happening now. Look outside. Is the world more peaceful since the revolution? I see nothing but death and chaos. I would like to see the baby.

Greef Karga: It is asleep.

The Client: We all will be quiet. Open the pram. Don’t think me to be rude. I must take this call.

The Mandalorian: Give me the blaster.

Greef Karga: You get one shot.

Cara Dune: This is bad. You said four.

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

The Client: Yes, Moff Gideon?

Moff Gideon: Have they brought the child?

The Client: Yes, they have. Currently, it is sleeping.

Moff Gideon: You wanna check again.

Cara Dune: This is bad.

The Mandalorian: Kuiil? Are you back to the ship yet? Are you there? Do you copy?

Kuiil: Yes!

The Mandalorian: Are you back to the ship yet?

Kuiil: Not yet.

The Mandalorian: Get back to the ship and bail. Get the kid out of here. We’re pinned down!

Moff Gideon: You have something I want.

Cara Dune: Who’s this guy?

Moff Gideon: You may think you have some idea of what you are in possession of, but you do not.

The Mandalorian: Kuiil, are you back to the ship yet? They’re onto us! Kuiil, come in!

Moff Gideon: In a few moments, it will be mine.

The Mandalorian: Kuiil! Do you copy? Kuiil!

Moff Gideon: It means more to me than you will ever know.

The Mandalorian: Kuiil! Are you there? Come in, Kuiil. Kuiil, come in. Kuiil? Are you there? Do you copy? Kuiil? Kuiil!

The Mandalorian Chapter 8: Redemption Quotes:

Stormtrooper 1: Speeder bikes have arrived at the checkpoint with the asset. Awaiting confirmation. Knock it off! Waiting for confirmation to continue into town.

Operator: That’s a go to proceed, but I advise you to double-check. The Moff just touched down and already took out a squad of local troopers.

Stormtrooper 1: Standing by.

Stormtrooper 2: Did he just say that Gideon killed his own men?

Stormtrooper 1: Oh, who knows? These guys like to lay down the law when they first arrive into town. You know how it is. I said, shut up.

Stormtrooper 2: What is that thing, anyway?

Stormtrooper 1: I don’t know. Maybe Moff wants to eat it. I don’t ask questions.

Stormtrooper 2: Can I see it?

Stormtrooper 1: Did you not just hear that Moff Gideon killed a dozen of his own troopers to make a point.

“I am IG-11. I am this child’s nurse droid and require that you remand him to me immediately.” – IG-11

“That was unpleasant. I’m sorry you had to see that.” – IG-11

“Your astute panic suggests that you understand your situation. I would prefer to avoid any further violence, and encourage a moment of consideration. Members of my escort have completed assembly of an E-Web heavy repeating blaster. If you are unfamiliar with this weapon, I am sure that Republican Shock Trooper Carasynthia Dune of Alderaan will advise you that she has witnessed many of her ranks vaporize mid-descent facing the predecessor of this particular model. Or perhaps the decommissioned Mandalorian hunter, Din Djarin, has heard the songs of the Siege of Mandalore, when gunships outfitted with similar ordnance laid waste to fields of Mandalorian recruits in The Night of a Thousand Tears. I advise disgraced Magistrate Greef Karga to search the wisdom of his years and urge you to lay down your arms and come outside. The structure you are trapped in will be razed in short order and your storied lives will come to an unceremonious end.” – Moff Gideon (Giancarlo Esposito)

“If you’re asking if you can trust me, you cannot. Just as you betrayed our business arrangement, I would gladly break any promise and watch you die at my hand. The assurance I give is this: I will act in my own self-interest, which at this time involves your cooperation and benefit. I will give you until nightfall, and then I will have the E-Web cannon open fire.” – Moff Gideon

The Mandalorian: I know who he is. It’s Moff Gideon.

Cara Dune: No. Moff Gideon was executed for war crimes.

The Mandalorian: It’s him. He knew my name.

Cara Dune: So? What does that prove?

The Mandalorian: I haven’t heard that name spoken since I was a child.

Greef Karga: On Mandalore?

The Mandalorian: I was not born on Mandalore.

Greef Karga: But you’re a Mandalorian.

Cara Dune: Mandalorian isn’t a race.

The Mandalorian: It’s a creed.

The Mandalorian: I was a foundling. They raised me in the Fighting Corps. I was treated as one of their own. When I came of age, I was sworn to the Creed. The only record of my family name was in the registers of Mandalore. Moff Gideon was an ISB Officer during the purge. That’s how I know it’s him.

Cara Dune: That’s how he knows who we all are.

The Mandalorian: He says he needs us, which means the child got away safely. I was worried when the Ugnaught didn’t respond, but if they’d captured the kid, we’d already be dead.

Cara Dune: Hail them again.

The Mandalorian: Come in, Kuiil. Kuiil? Nothing.

Cara Dune: They might have jammed the link.

IG-11: Kuiil has been terminated.

The Mandalorian: What did you do?

IG-11: I am fulfilling my base function.

The Mandalorian: Which is?

IG-11: To nurse and protect.

“If you go near this child, I will no choice but to kill you.” – IG-11

The Mandalorian: I’m not gonna make it. Go.

Cara Dune: Shut up. You just got your bell rung. You’ll be fine.

The Mandalorian: Leave me.

Cara Dune: I’m gonna need to take this thing off.

The Mandalorian: No. You leave me. You make sure the child is safe. Here. When you get to the Mandalorian covert, you show them that. You tell them it’s from Din Djarin. You tell them the foundling was in my protection, and they’ll help you.

Cara Dune: We can make it.

Cara Dune: Come on! Let’s go!

The Mandalorian: I’m not gonna make it and you know it. You protect the child. I can hold them back long enough for you to escape. Let me have a warrior’s death.

Cara Dune: I won’t leave you.

The Mandalorian: This is the Way.

The Mandalorian: Do it.

IG-11: Do what?

The Mandalorian: Just get it over with. I’d rather you kill me than some Imp.

IG-11: I told you. I am no longer a hunter. I am a nurse droid.

The Mandalorian: IGs are all hunters.

IG-11: Not this one. I was reprogrammed. I need to remove your helmet if I am to save you.

The Mandalorian: Try it and I’ll kill you. It is forbidden. No living thing has seen me without my helmet since I swore the Creed. IG-11: I am not a living thing. This is a bacta spray. It will heal you in a matter of hours. You have suffered damage to your central processing unit.

The Mandalorian: You mean my brain?

IG-11: That was a joke. It is meant to put you at ease.

The Mandalorian: Come with us.

The Armorer: No. I will not abandon this place until I have salvaged what remains. Show me the one whose safety deemed such destruction. The Mandalorian: This is the one.

The Armorer: This is the one that you hunted, then saved?

The Mandalorian: Yes. The one that saved me as well.

The Armorer: From the mudhorn?

The Mandalorian: Yes.

The Armorer: It looks helpless.

The Mandalorian: It’s injured, but it is not helpless. Its species can move objects with its mind.

The Armorer: I know of such things. The songs of eons past tell of battles between Mandalore The Great, and an order of sorcerers called Jedi that fought with such powers.

The Mandalorian: It is an enemy?

The Armorer: No. Its kind were enemies, but this individual is not.

The Mandalorian: What is it?

The Armorer: It is a foundling. By Creed, it is in your care.

The Mandalorian: You wish me to train this thing?

The Armorer: It is too weak. It would die. You have no choice. You must reunite it with its own kind.

The Mandalorian: Where?

The Armorer: This, you must determine.

The Mandalorian: You expect me to search the galaxy for the home of this creature and deliver it to a race of enemy sorcerers?

The Armorer: This is the Way.

“You must go. A foundling is in your care. By Creed, until it is of age or reunited with its own kind, you are as its father. This is the Way. You have earned your Signet. You are a clan of two.” – The Armorer (Emily Swallow)

“Hang on. I don’t do the baby thing.” – Cara Dune (Gina Carano)

“They will not be satisfied with anything less than the child. This is unacceptable. I will eliminate the enemy and you will escape.” – IG-11

IG-11: I still have the security protocols from my manufacturer. If my designs are compromised, I must self-destruct.

The Mandalorian: What’re you talking about?

IG-11: I am not permitted to be captured. I must be destroyed.

Greef Karga: Are we gonna keep talking, or get out of here?

IG-11: I can no longer carry this for you. Nor can I watch over the child.

The Mandalorian: Wait. You can’t self-destruct. Your base command is to watch the child. That supersedes your manufacturer’s protocol, right? Right?  

IG-11: This is correct.

The Mandalorian: Good. Now, grab a blaster and help us shoot our way out.

IG-11: Victory through combat is impossible. We will be captured. The child will be lost. Sadly, there is no scenario where the child is saved, in which I survive.

The Mandalorian: Listen, you’re not going anywhere. We need you. Let’s just come up with a …

IG-11: Please tell me the child will be safe in your care. If you do so, I can default to my secondary command.

The Mandalorian: But you’ll be destroyed.

IG-11: And you will live, and I will have served my purpose.

The Mandalorian: No. We need you.

IG-11: There is nothing to be sad about. I have never been alive. The Mandalorian: I’m not sad.

IG-11: Yes, you are. I’m a nurse droid. I’ve analyzed your voice. Greef Karga: IG? What’re you doing?

IG-11: Manufacturer’s protocol dictates I cannot be captured.

“Manufacturer’s protocol dictates I cannot be captured. I must be destroyed.” – IG-11

“Let’s make the baby do the magic hand thing. Come on, baby! Do the magic hand thing.” – Greef Karga

Greef Karga: That was impressive, Mando. Very impressive. It looks like your Guild rates have just gone up.

The Mandalorian: Any more stormtroopers?

Cara Dune: I think we cleaned up the town. I’m thinking of staying around just to be sure.

The Mandalorian: You’re staying here?

Greef Karga: Well, why not? Nevarro is a very fine planet. And now that the scum and villainy have been washed away, it’s very respectable again.

The Mandalorian: As a bounty hunter hive?

Greef Karga: Some of my favorite people are bounty hunters. And perhaps, this specimen of soldier might consider joining our ranks. Cara Dune: Yeah. I’ve got some clerical concerns regarding my chain code.

Greef Karga: And if you would agree to become my enforcer, clerical concerns would be the least of your worries. But you, my friend, you will be welcome back into the Guild with open arms. So, go off, enjoy yourself. And when you’re ready to return, you will have the pick of all quarries.

The Mandalorian: I’m afraid I have more pressing matters at hand. Cara Dune: Take care of this little one.

Greef Karga: Or maybe, it’ll take care of you.

“What do you got there? I didn’t think I’d see this again. Why don’t you hang onto that?” – The Mandalorian
