In the gouged hillside, Kenobi and Satine continue to run afoul of Mandalorian warriors. Kenobi is unarmed -- the Mandalorians have confiscated his weapon. Before long, the Death Watch leader arrives, an armored Mandalorian with a distinctive trident painted on his helmet. The ruthless leader shoots a fallen Mandalorian in disgust over his failure.

The leader removes his helmet, revealing Pre Vizsla underneath. He is carrying Kenobi's lightsaber, and tosses it to the Jedi before reaching for his own weapon: an ancient lightsaber stolen from the Jedi Temple during the fall of the Old Republic.

Kenobi and Vizsla cross blades. Though Vizsla acquits himself well for a warrior without the Force, he is still outmaneuvered by Kenobi. Vizsla escapes by sending the last of his warriors to finish off Kenobi with their rocket packs. Obi-Wan and Satine leap into the mine shaft to avoid the explosive rockets.

At daybreak, Kenobi and Satine arrive at the Mandalore spaceport, where her starship, the Coronet is ready to depart for Coruscant. Anakin Skywalker, Clone Captain Rex and Clone Commander Cody are also there, ready to escort the Duchess on her journey. Kenobi is convinced the Separatists are backing Death Watch, but Satine disagrees. Regardless, she does not want the Republic meddling in Mandalorian affairs.
