Plot summary

Leia handing Imperial data-tapes over to Sabine

Princess [Leia](/article/leia_skywalker_organa_solo], accompanied by a pair of stormtrooper guards, traverses an octagon in Garel City. Sabine Wren, the Mandalorian rebel operative, lies in wait near a doorway. Sabine uses a yellow paint bomb to create a diversion for the stormtroopers, then uses a lasso to abduct Leia. Sabine shuts the gate before the guards can react to the Princess's kidnapping. The stormtroopers then request backup.

Sabine introduces herself inside, explaining to Princess Leia that she was sent to "capture" her and retrieve the data-tape. Leia informs Sabine that she concealed the data-tape to prevent the Empire from learning of her involvement with the rebellion. Using an arc welder, the stormtroopers begin cutting through the blast door. Leia and Sabine, racing against the clock, recover the data-tape from an interface unit. Leia reveals to Sabine that the data-tape contains the locations of several Imperial bases.

The bounty hunter droid IG-88 corners them before they can make their escape, giving chase with his blaster. Sabine detonates a second paint bomb, covering IG-88 in purple paint. They then head back to the blast door, where Sabine takes cover in a corner. The stormtroopers burst in, and Leia instructs them to attack the bounty hunter droid. While the stormtroopers engage IG-88 in a firefight, forcing him into a corner, Leia and Sabine slip away. Sabine expresses her gratitude to Leia before Leia returns to the building. Sabine encourages the Princess to continue the fight from within, while she fights from without. Leia replies with the hope that they will one day fight together.
