The Mandalorians shove R2-D2 into a tent converted into a droid storage area. The mercs order the little astromech to repair the battle damaged combat droids, so they can be blasted again.

Bo-Katan pushes Ahsoka into a tent filled with Ming Po women captured from a nearby village. Alone among them, Tryla shows enough bravery to greet the newcomer. She warns Ahsoka not to push too hard against the Mandalorians. A Death Watch soldier enters and demands the servants prepare a feast for the warriors.

Inside the main tent, Chieftain Pieter of the Ming Po tribe confronts Vizsla, demanding a return of his people and an immediate departure by the Mandalorians. Surprisingly, Vizsla agrees to Pieter's demands. He promises the Mandalorians will be gone by sunrise tomorrow, and the captives returned. Lux sees this as a mark of honor among the Death Watch, but Ahsoka is not convinced.

The next day in the Carlac village, the Mandalorians gather before Chieftain Pieter. Pre Vizsla, in a display of power and contempt, coldly shoots Tryla through the back right before her grandfather's eyes. Vizsla orders the enter village torched to the ground. Lux is stunned as Vizsla chuckles, welcoming him to Death Watch.

Ahsoka can stand no more. Although she is unarmed, she kicks several Death Watch troopers to the ground. The Death Watch soldiers gang up on her, wrapping her limbs in their cables and rendering her helpless. Pre Vizsla orders Ahsoka dragged back to camp. He needs to discuss matters of loyalty with Lux Bonteri first.

Lux realizes that Ahsoka was right all along -- these Mandalorians are nothing but cruel murderers. Vizsla laughs at Lux's hypocrisy; after all, it was Lux's desire for murder that brought him to Death Watch in the first place. Vizsla sees the death of any Jedi as the delivery of justice. He ignites his darksaber, ready to kill Ahsoka.

Suddenly R2-D2 noisily rolls into the tent, distracting the Mandalorians with all his extended tools and gadgets. He cuts Ahsoka's bonds and returns her lightsabers. Ahsoka ignites them and duels with Vizsla, clashing her lightsabers against his black blade. As the fight spills outside, the Mandalorians find themselves attacked by refurbished battle droids repaired by R2-D2.

Ahsoka cuts through Vizsla's rocket pack, causing it to violently explode. She, Artoo and Lux flee aboard a landspeeder, but Bo-Katan and two other Mandalorian warriors give chase. Katan and Ahsoka brawl atop the speeder, but the young Padawan is able to kick the agile warrior off the vehicle.

The speeder arrives at the Phoenix and the ship leaves Carlac, bound for Coruscant. But rather than return to the capital, Lux boards the ship's escape pod. He is determined to follow his own path, even if it means leaving Ahsoka behind. She tries to convince him otherwise, and he admits that they make a good team. He assures Ahsoka that they will meet again before blasting off to find his own destiny.
