Storyline Summary

Reaching Daiyu

Obi-Wan Kenobi journeys to Daiyu with the goal of locating young Princess Leia Organa and reuniting her with her parents, Senator Bail Organa and Breha Organa. Lacking knowledge of the area, Obi-Wan seeks guidance from a local on the streets of Daiyu. However, the man explains that all signals to and from Daiyu are blocked, making it impossible to pinpoint Vect Nokru's location. Continuing his search, Obi-Wan passes by a homeless clone trooper from the 501st Legion who requests credits. After a moment of hesitation, Kenobi drops some credits into the clone's helmet.

He walks past a pair of stormtroopers, with one loudly giving orders to passersby. A girl with pink hair, Tetha Grig, approaches Kenobi, offering to sell him various types of spice, including Kessel pure, glitterstim, and Felucian. Kenobi says he is searching for his kidnapped daughter on the planet. The girl expresses doubt about Kenobi's chances of finding his daughter, before revealing that she was once someone's daughter before she ended up on Daiyu. Feeling sympathy for Kenobi, she gives him some spice to help him forget his loss.

The Imposter Jedi

A young boy with dark skin, named Jayco, approaches Kenobi, informing him of a Jedi who assists individuals. Kenobi replies that all the Jedi are gone. Jayco offers to lead him to this Jedi in exchange for payment.

In the meantime, a hooded man known as Haja Estree guides a human woman and her son Corran into a courtyard containing cages, assuring them of their safety. The hooded man removes his hood and appears to use the Force to call a comlink. He contacts Gate 3-C to request a spaceport passenger check. A male voice on the other end asks for the caller's identity, stating that it is a private channel. The man claims he is using a Jedi mind trick and instructs the respondent to allow a mother and child to pass through Gate 3-C so they can travel to Corellia.

The woman expresses her belief that the Force is strong with Haja and thanks him for protecting her Force-sensitive son from the [Galactic Empire](/article/galactic_empire]. The mother gives him some credits and promises she will never forget him. Haja tells her to forget him since his safety depends on it. Kenobi observes as Haja counts his money before telling the respondent that he is on his way.

Kenobi approaches Haja, who questions how he gained entry. Kenobi explains that a girl has been kidnapped and he needs help to rescue her. Haja introduces himself as a Jedi, stating that he helps those in need for a fee. When Kenobi asks about his price, Haja demands 500 credits to locate the girl and an additional 300 credits to escort him to her. He also offers to demonstrate some tricks for 1,000 credits.

When Haja tries to impress Kenobi with his knowledge of the Force, Kenobi reveals him to be a fraud who uses remotes and magnets to fake telekinesis. As Kenobi removes the magnets at gunpoint, he scolds Haja for exploiting people's desperation. Haja admits to scamming his customers but insists that he got them somewhere safe. Haja asks if he is not going to tell anyone. Kenobi replies that depends on what he tells him, prompting Haja to ask if he is a bounty hunter.

Descending into the Sewers

Haja, feeling trapped, agrees to assist Kenobi in finding the missing girl. Haja offers to guide him to the sewers but warns Kenobi that he believes he will never get in. Kenobi, in disguise, enters a makeshift laboratory where he causes a glass tank to explode, creating a diversion that allows him to slip through a door. He is confronted by a Zabrak and a human worker who demand to know why he is there. Kenobi engages in a fight with the pair, who prove to be formidable opponents. Kenobi manages to subdue them and forces the human worker to reveal the girl's location.

Kenobi discovers a cell containing a hooded figure whom he assumes to be Princess Leia. However, it turns out to be a broken droid used as a decoy. Kenobi is captured by Vect Nokru's associates, Vidara Jurness and Ayo Bons, who restrain him. Nokru enters the room, expressing surprise that a Jedi fell for his trap. He mocks Kenobi for risking everything for a "little brat" before kicking him to the ground. Nokru fingers Kenobi's lightsaber, remarking that the Third Sister was correct about him. He believes that he and his associates will become wealthy from Kenobi's capture.

Kenobi demands to know Leia's whereabouts, but Nokru dismisses him as a mere man who bleeds. Kenobi retorts that everyone bleeds before throwing the vial of red spice he was given, blinding the mercenaries. Kenobi seizes the opportunity to escape and locks the kidnappers in their own cell.

Saving Leia

At the same time, the Third Sister approaches the sewers, pushing pedestrians out of her way. Kenobi locates Leia, who initially resists. Kenobi informs her that her father sent him to rescue her. When Leia questions why she should trust him, he asks if she would prefer to remain in her cell. He leads her out of the sewers and into the streets of Daiyu. Kenobi instructs her to keep her head down.

Meanwhile, Nokru and his associates struggle with the effects of the spice. The Third Sister arrives and angrily demands to know Kenobi's location. As Kenobi and Leia change their clothes, Leia realizes that he is a Jedi, while commenting on his disheveled appearance. Kenobi tells Leia that they must go to the spaceport and catch the last transport. Leia insists on going but Kenobi tells her that he is risking his life being here and instructs Leia to cooperate.

Reva's Strategy

In the meantime, the Grand Inquisitor, accompanied by the Fifth Brother and Fourth Sister, confronts the Third Sister. He reprimands Reva for kidnapping an Imperial Senator's daughter. Reva counters that they have done worse, prompting a protest from the Fifth Brother. She tells her fellow Inquisitors that she discovered a connection between Kenobi and Bail Organa in the archives and used Leia as bait to draw him out of hiding. The Grand Inquisitor is enraged that Reva disobeyed his orders, but she remains defiant.

The Fifth Brother accuses Reva of attempting to gain favor with their superiors, while the Grand Inquisitor reminds her that she is the least of them. The Pau'an reminds the Third Sister of her lowly origins, but Reva accused the Grand Inquisitor of failure. The Grand Inquisitor orders them to secure the city and vows to capture Kenobi himself. He relieves Reva of her duties and warns that she will be disciplined for going rogue. The Grand Inquisitor departs with the other Inquisitors.

However, a defiant Reva places a bounty on Kenobi, attracting the attention of local bounty hunters and criminals. She also contacts Nokru and his associates, explaining that her plan is to draw Kenobi out of hiding so she can deal with him. Across Daiyu, several bounty hunters and criminals receive an alert for Kenobi. Realizing the situation has worsened, Kenobi buys Leia a green cape and tells her to pretend they are a farming family from Tawl.

The Search for Kenobi

While walking through the marketplace, Kenobi advises Leia to keep a low profile. To confirm that he is a Jedi, Leia asks Kenobi to show her his lightsaber. When Kenobi refuses, Leia tries to convince Kenobi to levitate her, but the Jedi is unwilling to expose his cover to the Empire. When Leia asks his name, he tells her that his name is Ben and insists that she trust him. Leia reluctantly reveals that she is ten years old, prompting Kenobi to quip that she does not speak like a ten-year-old.

Meanwhile, Jayco informs Haja about the bounty on Kenobi and the girl Leia. Seeing an opportunity to earn money, Haja decides to join the hunt for Kenobi. While walking through a narrow street, Kenobi is confronted by a human bounty hunter but knocks the man unconscious. Elsewhere in the city, the Grand Inquisitor orders the Fifth Brother to lock down the city and dispatch a garrison within the hour. He also emphasizes the importance of capturing Kenobi, describing him as an exceptional target and a relic of a bygone era.

The Fourth Sister brings a captured bounty hunter and reveals that Reva has posted a bounty on Kenobi. Reva surveys the surrounding area from a high building. While hiding in an alleyway, Leia tends to her damaged droid companion L0-LA59 ("Lola"). She tells Kenobi that she was damaged by the kidnappers. Kenobi reassures her that he will let her parents know that she is safe and will be home by nightfall. Leia tells Kenobi that he can just call her Leia.

Kenobi inspects the incapacitated bounty hunter's hologram. Leia notices the hologram and believes that he lied to her. She thinks that the kidnappers kidnapped her as a means of luring Kenobi out of hiding. Leia questions whether her father actually sent him and if he is the real kidnapper. Kenobi pleads with Leia to trust him, stating that he is an old friend of her father. Leia does not believe him and runs away.

The Chase

Leia escapes into the marketplace, ducking under a large Gigoran and weaving through an animal auction. She runs into the path of a masked bounty hunter who is searching for Kenobi. He demands to know Kenobi's location, but Kenobi shoots him down. Kenobi also fights a gray skinned humanoid. He follows Leia, but she tells him to leave her alone. Leia climbs a ladder while the Inquisitors lead stormtroopers into the marketplace.

Leia reaches the roof and flees across several buildings with Kenobi in pursuit. Tredgar Volk attempts to shoot Kenobi. Kenobi shoots back, but the gunshots alert Reva, who leaps over several buildings. Leia continues fleeing with Kenobi in pursuit while dodging fire from Volk, who is joined by the droid bounty hunter 1-JAC.

Meanwhile, Reva uses the Force to collapse an antennae tower, which she uses as an improvised bridge. Kenobi manages to shoot Volk. Against Kenobi's warnings, Leia tries to jump onto another building, but the gap is too wide. She tries to cling onto a cable but loses her grip. Kenobi is forced to use the Force to cushion her fall, causing her to drop to the ground lightly. Several pedestrians witness Kenobi's display of Force power. Kenobi's decision to save Leia's life convinces her that he is a genuine Jedi.

An Unexpected Friend

Kenobi and Leia arrive at the spaceport, only to discover that the authorities have canceled all incoming travel and are scanning passengers. The spaceport is guarded by stormtroopers and Inquisitors. When asked by Leia, Kenobi explains that many of the Inquisitors are former Jedi who turned to the dark side of the Force. Leia questions why the Imperials would target a Jedi like him. The two are surprised by 1-JAC, but Haja shoots the droid bounty hunter.

Haja tells Obi-Wan he is not alone

Believing that Haja has come to capture him, Kenobi pleads with him to let Leia go. Haja informs Kenobi of a second escape route: a fully-automated cargo pod. He tells them to go to Transport 8, which will take them to Mapuzo, where he claims that people who can help them will be waiting. Kenobi distrusts Haja. Haja admits that he has a checkered record and is motivated by credits. However, Haja tells Kenobi that he is trying to make amends, and offers Kenobi a card containing some coordinates. When Kenobi asks if Haja can be trusted, Haja tells him to trust him and reassures Kenobi that he is not alone. Haja agrees to buy Kenobi and Leia enough time to escape.

Meanwhile, the Grand Inquisitor interrogates Nokru with his double-bladed spinning lightsaber, demanding to know Kenobi's location. Nokru says he doesn't know, prompting the Grand Inquisitor to strike him down with his weapon. Meanwhile, Reva meets a disguised Haja in an alleyway. Haja claims that he is a Jedi, but Reva is not interested. Haja attempts to block Reva but she realizes that he is no Jedi. Reva questions him about Kenobi's location, but Haja claims to be the only Jedi around. Reva uses the Force to hurl him against a wall, but he remains defiant. She instead uses a mind probe to obtain Kenobi's whereabouts.

Evading the Inquisitors

Following Haja's directions, Kenobi and Leia arrive at the cargo port. Kenobi doesn't trust Haja, but Leia thinks they should accept help, given their recent adventures. Kenobi says that Leia reminds him of someone who was fearless and stubborn. Leia denies that she is stubborn. When Leia asks if her friend was a Jedi, Kenobi describes her as a leader who had died a long time ago.

Before they can proceed, Reva enters the cargo port. Kenobi and Leia hide behind crates. He tells her to go first while he prepares to fight Reva. Leia enters the cargo shuttle and activates it using the starter key which Haja gave. Reva attempts to lure Kenobi out of hiding, declaring that she will bring him to Darth Vader. She adds that Anakin Skywalker is alive and has been looking for Kenobi for a long time. She boasts of delivering Kenobi to Vader.

Reva declares that Obi-Wan Kenobi cannot escape Darth Vader and the Empire.

However, she is interrupted by the Grand Inquisitor, who has had enough of her insubordination. Reva says that she has found Kenobi, but the Grand Inquisitor responds that he cannot risk her losing him again. He orders the younger Inquisitor to move aside but she stabs him through his torso. While Reva gloats over her wounded superior, Kenobi joins Leia inside the cargo shuttle, which powers up. As the cargo shuttle departs, a frustrated Reva vows that the Empire will find him.

Inside the shuttle, Kenobi senses a disturbance in the Force. Leia notices that he is in distress. Elsewhere, Lord Vader awakes while submerged inside a bacta tank.
