Moving! Moving! - Come on! Come on! 14 00:01:06,125 --> 00:01:07,281 I can see 'em! 15 00:01:23,508 --> 00:01:25,858 - You are clear. - Copy that. 16 00:01:35,195 --> 00:01:37,127 - No, don't stop! - Yes, sir. 17 00:01:47,293 --> 00:01:48,718 Your Excellency. 18 00:01:50,779 --> 00:01:54,574 Such size. Such power. 19 00:01:54,864 --> 00:01:56,832 With respect, Chancellor, 20 00:01:56,846 --> 00:01:59,768 I believe this creature could pose any number of dangers. 21 00:01:59,788 --> 00:02:02,708 Bringing it here to Coruscant is a mistake. 22 00:02:02,749 --> 00:02:06,965 I assure you, I did not make this decision lightly, Master Jedi. 23 00:02:06,972 --> 00:02:10,091 The sooner we unlock this Zillo beast's secrets, 24 00:02:10,117 --> 00:02:15,013 - ...the sooner we can end this terrible war. - I hope you're right, Chancellor. 25 00:02:23,410 --> 00:02:28,233 I'm turning the Zillo beast over to you, Doctor. I trust it will be given good care. 26 00:02:28,244 --> 00:02:31,114 The beast is a priceless resource, Master Windu. 27 00:02:31,124 --> 00:02:33,924 It will be well treated, I assure you. 28 00:03:03,056 --> 00:03:05,593 Why would the Chancellor want to bring the beast here? 29 00:03:05,607 --> 00:03:08,853 I know he thinks that by studying it, the knowledge could prove beneficial, 30 00:03:08,862 --> 00:03:13,016 but from what you and Anakin reported on Malastare, it hardly seems worth the effort. 31 00:03:13,051 --> 00:03:16,512 I raised the issue with the Chancellor during the battle of Malastare, 32 00:03:16,532 --> 00:03:18,420 without success. 33 00:03:19,500 --> 00:03:23,977 Well then, in that case, perhaps it's time we let someone else try. 34 00:03:53,530 --> 00:03:54,787 That's enough. 35 00:04:04,238 --> 00:04:07,411 Its scales are remarkably strong and light. 36 00:04:07,427 --> 00:04:09,595 If we could examine their composition, 37 00:04:09,615 --> 00:04:13,905 we might be able to synthesise them to reinforce our Clone armour. 38 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,744 And what is stopping you? 39 00:04:15,768 --> 00:04:18,504 We need to remove the scales first. 40 00:04:18,507 --> 00:04:21,789 It's very difficult, not to mention painful. 41 00:04:21,809 --> 00:04:24,979 Would it not be more efficient to simply kill the beast? 42 00:04:26,572 --> 00:04:28,610 Kill it?! Are you sure? 43 00:04:28,849 --> 00:04:33,486 Chancellor, I must protest. Besides being the last of its kind, 44 00:04:33,500 --> 00:04:36,123 this creature may be intelligent. 45 00:04:36,139 --> 00:04:39,910 I find that hard to believe. It is, after all, just an animal. 46 00:04:40,950 --> 00:04:43,260 It didn't seem to like your comment. 47 00:04:44,870 --> 00:04:47,261 I applaud your high moral stance, Doctor. 48 00:04:47,479 --> 00:04:50,656 After all, principle is in short supply these days. 49 00:04:50,726 --> 00:04:54,971 However, every passing minute of warfare brings countless deaths. 50 00:04:55,409 --> 00:04:58,767 Deaths that could be prevented once the beast's secrets are unlocked. 51 00:04:58,896 --> 00:05:03,594 If there is any way we hasten that process, it is our moral duty to explore it. 52 00:05:03,629 --> 00:05:09,127 I serve at your pleasure, Chancellor. I'm just not sure where to begin. 53 00:05:09,130 --> 00:05:12,796 The fact remains that the beast is indestructible. 54 00:05:12,817 --> 00:05:16,057 Nothing is truly indestructible, Doctor. 55 00:05:16,354 --> 00:05:20,061 Wasn't there something in Malastare fuel that affected the beast? 56 00:05:20,096 --> 00:05:25,521 - It weakened the Zillo, yes, but... - Excellent. I suggest you start there. 57 00:05:26,025 --> 00:05:29,789 Doctor, you need to find a way to kill that beast. 58 00:05:29,984 --> 00:05:33,680 Or we shall replace you with someone who can. 59 00:06:02,504 --> 00:06:05,986 Oh, hello! You're not in trouble again, are you? 60 00:06:07,407 --> 00:06:08,863 I am not being rude! 61 00:06:09,201 --> 00:06:14,236 Not that it isn't a pleasure, Senator, but I thought I was just meeting Obi-Wan here. 62 00:06:14,328 --> 00:06:17,795 Master Kenobi explained the problem. I'm here to help. 63 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:20,742 Problem? What problem? 64 00:06:21,152 --> 00:06:24,691 The situation with our friend from Malastare. 65 00:06:25,790 --> 00:06:27,392 I see what's going on here. 66 00:06:27,689 --> 00:06:29,813 You think I could help influence the Chancellor. 67 00:06:29,906 --> 00:06:32,749 The Zillo beast was chained up and brought here against its will. 68 00:06:33,017 --> 00:06:38,116 It has no voice to defend itself. Anakin, we have to be that voice. 69 00:06:39,091 --> 00:06:40,569 You haven't seen it in action! 70 00:06:40,599 --> 00:06:42,814 You have no idea what it's capable of. 71 00:06:42,824 --> 00:06:45,423 It's what we're capable of that frightens me. 72 00:06:45,486 --> 00:06:49,850 A creature's life, maybe even an entire species, is at stake. 73 00:06:49,916 --> 00:06:52,678 Doesn't that at least warrant a discussion? 74 00:06:53,653 --> 00:06:55,985 I didn't think you'd feel so strongly about it. 75 00:06:56,690 --> 00:07:01,383 Alright, let's speak to the Chancellor. But I still don't like this. 76 00:07:02,666 --> 00:07:06,708 I should have known secrets do not stay secret for long around here. 77 00:07:07,299 --> 00:07:10,015 Isn't that precisely the point of a democracy? 78 00:07:10,035 --> 00:07:13,109 Of course in war time, some things must be kept secret, 79 00:07:13,125 --> 00:07:15,487 even from the people, so as not to aid the enemy. 80 00:07:15,513 --> 00:07:18,972 It is unfortunate that the beast must die, Senator, 81 00:07:19,060 --> 00:07:20,790 but the greater good demands it. 82 00:07:20,810 --> 00:07:23,164 How is killing the last of a species, 83 00:07:23,189 --> 00:07:26,213 in secret and without debate, good for anyone? 84 00:07:26,351 --> 00:07:31,414 Don't you have more pressing issues that require your attention today? 85 00:07:31,540 --> 00:07:34,145 No, Mr. Speaker, I do not. 86 00:07:34,158 --> 00:07:38,395 I sympathise, my dear. Truly I do. But consider this-- 87 00:07:38,619 --> 00:07:42,520 A democracy is only as strong as the people who comprise it. 88 00:07:42,535 --> 00:07:47,626 At present, the people I encharged with protecting are dying faster than I can count. 89 00:07:48,516 --> 00:07:52,276 It is my moral imperative to take action. 90 00:07:52,292 --> 00:07:56,356 Anakin, is it not worth the life of one savage beast... 91 00:07:56,377 --> 00:08:00,001 to give our brave troops the advantage they need to win this war? 92 00:08:01,602 --> 00:08:06,687 My role is not to set policy, Chancellor, but I do see both points of view. 93 00:08:06,905 --> 00:08:09,778 I'm certain a reasonable solution will present itself. 94 00:08:09,813 --> 00:08:13,764 - Master Kenobi has taught you well. - Chancellor? 95 00:08:15,314 --> 00:08:16,816 Excuse me. 96 00:08:18,765 --> 00:08:22,984 You are supposed to be helping! Whose side are you on anyway? 97 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:27,631 Yours, but you must admit the Chancellor made some good points. 98 00:08:35,469 --> 00:08:39,400 Ah, Doctor Po. I trust you have some progress to report? 99 00:08:39,630 --> 00:08:41,400 Yes, Chancellor. 100 00:08:41,418 --> 00:08:45,965 I was able to convert the Malastare fuel toxin into a poison gas. 101 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:49,299 I believe it's now strong enough to kill the Zillo beast. 102 00:08:49,325 --> 00:08:52,820 If... that's still how you wish to proceed. 103 00:08:52,835 --> 00:08:54,794 I wish I saw an alternative. 104 00:08:54,812 --> 00:08:59,234 However, sadly, I must ask you to proceed with your assignment. 105 00:09:13,921 --> 00:09:18,180 I'm sorry. Don't worry. It will all be over soon. 106 00:09:18,558 --> 00:09:20,184 Begin procedure. 107 00:09:24,196 --> 00:09:25,790 Vital signs are dropping. 108 00:09:39,258 --> 00:09:41,409 No! It should've been enough! 109 00:10:02,681 --> 00:10:04,335 I don't like the sound of that. 110 00:10:04,354 --> 00:10:08,156 If that creature's as powerful as they say, what good will these rifles are gonna be? 111 00:10:08,175 --> 00:10:09,992 Shut up, Kosmos! 112 00:10:29,417 --> 00:10:30,870 Take it down!
