Water wars.
Tensions run high on the
ocean world of Mon Calamari,
where two separate peoples--
the aggressive, squidlike
Quarren and their peaceful
neighbor, the Mon Calamari--
struggle to maintain
a fragile coexistence.
Adding to this strife,
the King of the Mon Calamari
has been found mysteriously
murdered, leaving his young son,
prince Lee-Char, to guide
his people alone.
But the Quarren race will not
accept the new ruler
as their King.
Senator Amidala and her
jedi bodyguard have arrived
to help resolve the matter
and to avoid plunging the planet
into civil war.
The world prospered
under our rule.
It's time for a change!
The prince's rule
has been preordained.
Down with this monarchy!
We'll defend our right
for a Mon Cala King.
We want a Quarren King.
Down with the Mon Cala.
Power to the Quarren!
I am dedicated to serving
the Quarren as well as
my own people, the Mon Calamari.
Silence!
You haven't earned the right
to speak at this gathering.
You have no say
in the matter, ambassador.
You are only here as an observer
for the separatists.
Do not forget I am here
at the request of the Quarren
because you, captain,
demanded the presence
of the Republic.
I'll give you a lesson
in manners.
Prince Lee-Char will bring
the planet to ruin.
The boy has neither the
experience nor the knowledge
to lead.
Please.
You're here to find
a compromise.
What can the Republic do
to help keep the peace?
This is a matter between
the Quarren and the Mon Cala.
Yeah, who asked you?
The Republic has no place
here.
Down with the Republic!
[People shouting angrily]
The coronation
of another Mon Cala King.
I'm sorry.
Ambassador?
It is my opinion
the Quarren have
no further business here.
[People yelling]
Come on, captain Ackbar. We have to contact Master Yoda.
My trusted friend.
I am sorry for your loss.
This civil war,
is it inevitable?
Sadly so, Master Yoda.
The separatist ambassador
came here to stir up
the Quarren, and that's
exactly what he did.
It's only a matter of time
before the Quarren withdraw
from the Republic.
I suspect behind this,
Count Dooku is.
The Mon Calamari system
is still part of the Republic.
This planet must not fall
into separatist hands.
I'll dispatch Master Fisto
and your padawan Tano
along with a company of clones.
They'll be at your side
by day's end.
In the meantime, captain,
assemble the Mon Cala troops,
and prepare for
a Quarren assault.
The toops are being assembled, senator.
Let's hope we don't
need them, captain.
I'm entrusting the safety
of prince Lee-Char
to your hands.
You must remain at his side
at all times
as his personal bodyguard.
Senator, if the boy is--
we are on the verge
of a civil war, captain,
and that boy
is the supreme commander
of Mon Cala's military.
It's up to you to see
that he remains safe
and that he can handle the job.
With due respect, senator,
the prince is not ready
to lead an army.
He needs training.
You have your orders,
captain.
You are right, captain.
I am not trained to lead
an army.
Come on, your highness.
We have a war to win.
[Gears whirrg]
[Soft choral music] ♪ ♪
The army has assembled, Count Dooku.
Well done, Tamson.
What about the Quarren leader?
The Quarren leader
is on board 100%.
He will deliver the planet
into your hands,
just as you said he would.
Very good, commander.
In the end,
control of this planet
will be in your hands.
Proceed as planned.
[Dramatic music]
♪ ♪
In this time of crisis,
our King has something to say.
I know many of you agree
with the Quarren
that I am too young to rule.
But I assure you I will use
all my strength
and all my abilities to lead us
through this challenge.
We are a great people,
and I will do all I can
to negotiate peace
without bloodshed.
I do not believe
the Quarren will attack.
♪ ♪
Attack!
It's an attack. Take cover.
[Blasters firing]
The prince. The prince is here!
He's joining the battle.
Captain.
What are your orders,
your highness?
Stay where you are,
and hold the line.
If I may suggest, captain,
we should take the prince
to a safer place until the
Republic reinforcements arrive.
That's impossible.
That is a decision
only the prince can make.
He is our leader.
Ugh!
This is horrible.
Your highness, this is not
a wise decision.
And you know it.
Forget your tradition.
This is war.
Majesty?
I have to stay here
with my people.
Press your attack, captain.
Soldiers of Mon Calamari, this is your home.
Do not let it fall.
[All yell]
I need to get some troops behind those separatist droids.
Come on; I know a shortcut.
We should come out right behind them.
Good plan.
Look out!
What do we do now?
Well, we got to come up with another plan.
Any ideas?
Our only choice now
is to wait
for the jedi reinforcements.
Blue leader standing by. Red leader standing by.
All squadron are in position, general Fisto.
You may deploy when ready.
Commencing deployment.
Three.
Two.
One.
Mark.
Reinforcements. Finally.
Anakin, I'm going to look
for senator Tills.
Hopefully, she's still alive.
Be careful.
Look out!
Stay down, and don't move.
Hear that?
They're cheering for you.
They're cheering for them.
Then make it for you.
Come on.
Lead.
You called for backup?
[Gasps and coughs]
I had it under...
Control, snips.
Huh!
I knew you'd say that.
Anakin, I need you down here.
It's senator Tills.
I need help getting her
to safety.
We're at the base of the palace.
And hurry.
Ahsoka, cover the prince.
I'm going to the senators.
Got it, Master.
- Grab on! - Good idea.
Get us out of here!
Hang on.
I am. I am.
[Dramatic music] ♪ ♪
I'm slipping.
Look out! They're coming right at us.
[Gasps]
I'm letting go.
Look out! Behind you!
As long as we're in the tube, we're safe.
[Grunts]
Look, the prince.
[Roars]
Hurry.
They are returning to their ships.
We are lucky to have survived
the first assault.
They could have easily
overrun us with their droids.
The droids are taking up
position in the coral,
probably amassing
for another assault.
Why would they hide
why would they hide in the coral?
[Dramatic music] ♪ ♪
Your aqua droids are no match for the Mon Calamari.
What makes you think these
secret weapons you've brought
from your home world
will fare any better?
They are half machine,
half monster.
We call them hydroid medusas.
They are invincible.
[Low rumbling]
- Prince Lee-Char. - Senator Tills.
I'm glad to see you're safe.
You must prepare
to dictate terms
for a Quarren surrender.
Surrender?
Not so fast, senator.
I know the Quarren.
They won't surrender.
We may have won
the first battle, your highness,
but it won't be the last.
It's only a matter of time
before they launch
another assault.
I sense the real battle
is about to begin.
We have no defence against those.
This isn't gonna be easy.
All troops, battle stations!
Do not fire until the prince gives the command.
Steady. Steady.
Not yet.
- Now, your highness. - Attack!
Asoka, find a way out of here.
Prince,
where's somewhere safe?
We can't retreat, not now.
We've got to be brave.
There's a time to attack
and a time to retreat,
and now is not the time
to be brave.
The safest place
is in the caves.
I agree, your highness.
Follow me.
Anakin, go. I'll hold them off.
Come on. Keep going. Don't stop.
♪ ♪
Search the area
for survivors.
Secure the perimeter.
What took your squids
so long?
I didn't think
you and your separatist droids
would need backup.
Your reputation
is a little exaggerated.
Exaggeration is a weapon
of war.
It's what helped deliver
the enemy into your hands.
Then let's be thankful
this is our day,
a victorious day that--
disobey a command
from Count Dooku again,
and I will kill you
where you stand.
Thank to you padawan Tano, and to these brave soldiers.
I wish I could have done more
for my people.
Maybe then we would have been
spared all of this,
the illusion that I could
actually lead
in my father's place.
Your father would be proud
of you.
Proud?
We lost.
Today you learn
the hardest lesson
a commander can learn:
How to live
how to live to fight another day.
A goverment
toppled by civil war!
Refusing to accept prince
Lee-Char as the next ruler of
Mon Cala, the Quarren people
join the separatist alliance
and launch an all-out attack on
the Mon Calamari.
Caught unprepared, the young
prince and his jedi protectors
are quickly overwhelmed and
forced to retreat into caves
far below the capital city,
leaving Count Dooku and his
allies to plan their next move.
And the young prince,
has he been caured?
No, my lord.
Unfortunately, he escaped
capture and is hiding with
what's left of the jedi
and their army.
Do not underestimate this
boy, Tamson.
He must not become a symbol
for the Mon Calamari people
to rally behind.
This child is but a coward.
He is no leader.
That is irrelevant.
The whispering of his name
can rekindle hope, and hope is
something we cannot allow our
enemy to possess.
Excuse me, Count Dooku,
but what of the prisoners?
They are to be processed.
Internment camps have been
set up below the city.
Gather the rabble there.
Then set them to work.
Surely you do not mean
all of them,
the women and children--
are to be sent as well.
Is that understood?
Yes, my lord.
Tamson, I'm sending you
reinforcements.
Hold them in reserve and wait
for the Republic's next move.
As you wish, Count Dooku.
We lost conctat with all clone troopers and Mon Cala
soldiers.
The Quarren ambushed us.
They were ready to attack long
before the peace talks
came to an end.
Desperate, the situation is.
[Breaking up] Reinforce your
position with clones.
We can--
Master, please repeat.
Are you sending reinforcements?
[Breaking up]
You're breaking up.
Are they coming?
I don't know.
But they know our situation.
They must know to send help.
Yeah, but it may take them
a while to get here.
We're gonna have to get
ourselves to the surface
and get off this rock.
I will not leave my people
to die.
With all due respect,
your highness, if we stay,
we all die.
We must reach the surface and
see if our ship is still there.
The prince will decide
our course of action.
I think it is best for us to
try and escape using your ship.
As you wish, your highness.
Follow me.
It will take days to *** another clone regiment
for underwater combat.
Days our friends do not have.
Perhaps we should look to
armies other than clones
to help our cause.
What do you suggest?
A suitable ally we must find
to help with this mission.
Yes, an underwater race that
has a standing army and is close
enough to send help quickly.
Naboo?
Yes, to the gungans
we must look.
We shall contact them
we shall contact them immediately.
There's a lot of enemy troops between us and the surface.
It's no problem.
I just hope you're
a fast swimmer.
Says the boy from the desert
planet.
Are you certain your ship
is still there?
There's only one way
to find out.
I'll create a diversion so
you can get past those patrols.
All right, try to get
a mini sub or two.
It'll help us speed
to the surface.
No problem.
Asoka, you are first. Take the prince
and senator Tills.
Got it.
[Lightsaber zaps]
[Blasters firing]
Sir, the jedi have reappeared
with the prince.
They are headed to the surface.
Predictable.
Let them get within sight
of their ship.
I wanthem to watch
their hope
sink to the bottom of the sea.
There's the ship.
Still in one piece.
Spring the trap.
[Explosion]
[Booming explosion]
[Grunts]
Well, prince how do you feel
about fighting again?
Master jedi, we're too
vulnerable here.
We must reach the seafloor.
Grab on to the debris.
Let it carry you to the bottom.
I think I'm getting seasick.
[Deep rumble]
[Blasters firing]
- Back so soon? -Yeah, the ship had some
problems.
I can see that...
All around me.
This is our only chance.
We need to split up and hide
the prince's whereabouts.
I'm not sure that's
the best strategy.
I'm sure.
Captain Ackbar's words
are my own.
It will give us the best chances
of surviving if we split up.
As you wish.
Ahsoka, you and the prince go
with Kit and take the clones.
I'll take the senators
and captain Ackbar.
Lay low.
Our only hope is that Master
Yoda can send help in time.
No, prince Lee-Char
is our only hope.
[Booming thud]
[Sensor clicking]
[Sensor beeping]
Master Yoda, sir
to what's we owin' the pleasure of your
transmission?
Your help,
the Republic needs.
Something's a-tellin' mesa
big help you need, no?
Senator Amidala, your
longtime ally, trapped on an
occupied planet, she is.
Hmm...
Wesa need some thinking time
to respond to deesa news.
Thinking?
Nosa thinking!
Mesa thinking padme would help
us--has helped us, big-time!
Wesa gots to help her now!
Yousa right.
Thinking time's-a done!
Wesa need to be leaving now.
I don't think we've been followed.
Commander Monnk, post a lookout.
We have no army, and we don't
know if reinforcements
are coming.
What are our options?
We sit tight.
There's not much we can do.
Sir, you'd better come see this.
So many prisoners. Where are they taking them?
To become slaves.
I can't believe Nossor Ri
and the Quarren agreed to this.
Count Dooku rules here
for now, not the Quarren.
What you see, prince,
is the future of all the people
on this world,
Mon Cala and Quarren...
All slaves for Count Dooku.
Captain *** which of these structures houses the
city's interplanetary scanners?
It's over there,
across the square.
Why?
Well, just in case Master
Yoda is sending reinforcements,
I thought it'd be helpful if
the enemy couldn't tell
they were coming.
If we knock out those
sensors, they won't see our
reinforcements until they're
right on top of the city.
Assuming someone is coming.
I am sure Master Yoda will
find a way to send help.
Anakin, it's your move.
Follow me.
There's must be something more I can do.
I know it's hard,
but you have to be patient.
But you saw my people.
I've failed them.
No.
Remember captain Ackbar's words:
You are the hope of your people.
As long as you live,
they will endure.
I need an army.
We have to fight back.
You don't have to carry
a sword to be powerful.
Some leaders' strength is
inspiring greatness in others.
But my people don't even know
I'm alive.
How can I inspire them
how can I inspire them if they think I'm dead?
Okay, just cover me. I'm gonna have to concentrate.
Concentrate?
Concentrate on what?
Bringing that building down.
[Metallic creaking]
[Blasters firing] Anakin, hurry!
[Explosions]
[Explosion]
What's happening? Report!
We've lost all radar
and sonar scanning, sir.
Reestablish the connections.
We cannot, sir.
Why not?
The building that housed
the radar is gone.
[Heavy clank]
We're blind.
Prepare for an attack!
But there was nothing on the
scope prior to the attack.
That is precisely why we must
assume an attack is imminent!
Guards, to me!
Where are you going?
To find that meddling prince
and his jedi friends.
At least we're taking attention away from the prince.
[Conch bellowing]
Coda, the prince.
Hurry!
The prince is alive!
Look there!
People of Mon Cala,
all people of Mon Cala who would
not be slaves, have hope!
We will fight for you,
prince!
You will not be prisoners
much longer.
Okay, I think the show
is over.
The guards will be coming.
We have to go.
Wesa ready.
[All shouting]
Gungans. The tide has turned
in our favor.
Let's free my people.
Attack!
[Electricity crackling]
[All shouting]
Ani. Mesa so happy to see you.
Perfect timing, Jar-Jar.
Whassa?
Mesa can't hear so good
since we submergify!
[Blasters firing]
[Lightsaber humming]
[Blaster firing]
[Metallic clanking]
Tamson... Tamson, come in.
Where are you?
The Republic reinforcements are
overwhelming our defenses.
We must retreat.
We must retreat now!
I warned you this attack
was coming.
Where are the jedi
concentrating their attack?
There are two groups of jedi,
one in the lower city center
and two releasing the prisoners
near the coral base.
The prisoners?
The prince must be with them.
I'm committing the
reinforcements that Count Dooku
sent to the attack.
He will not escape this time.
Churn them up! [Controls beeping]
[Drill cranking]
[Heavy thud]
Stay in the center. There's less turbulence.
[Roaring]
[Lightsaber whirring]
[Electronic beep] [Machinery whirring]
[Grunts]
[Roars]
[Drill cranking]
Anakin!
Skywalker! We've got one chance!
[Roaring]
Asoka stay with the prince.
I'll hold him off.
[Cable zings and clanks]
Sever one of the legs! [Drill cranking]
[Explosion]
[Weapons clicking]
Find the prince! Find him!
Are you and I are the only ones left.
I'm sorry, Lee-Char.
I know what I must do.
I know my people need me.
I just don't know how to win
this war.
Look, I know you're scared,
but you can't let your fear
control you.
Aren't you scared?
I used to be, all the time,
until I realized that if you
make decisions out of fear,
you're more likely to be wrong.
I will unify Mon Cala again.
I promise.
[Distant rumbling]
We have to go.
