Star Wars: Reconstruction

Trapped on Batuu

INT. BLACK SPIRE OUTPOST OGA'S CANTINA (BATUU) - MORNING

Our heroes, REY, FINN, VI MORADI, BEAUMONT KIN, and BD-81, are hiding out in Oga's Cantina. The cantina is currently closed and there are no other customers inside.

CUT TO:

VI MORADI is in the back kitchen laying down on a long table. The droid R-3X has replaced his hand with a medical tool and is working to patch up VI MORADI's leg. He is doing a rough job.

VI MORADI
Gah! Rex, I thought you said you
know how to heal people.

R-3X
I've healed plenty in my day,
though I consider my music to be
the best healer. Believe it or
not I've only patched up one
organic in my time.

VI MORADI
Oh I believe it. Ow!

R-3X
It was the Battle of Jakku and
the Empire was preparing a
devastating counter attack...

CUT TO:

BEAUMONT KIN, FINN, REY, and BD-81 are in the lounge. BEAUMONT KIN and FINN are sitting together at the bar, BEAUMONT KIN's suitcase is opened. BD-81 is standing on the counter next to him. BEAUMONT KIN pulls the datacard out of BD-81 and puts it in a device that allows him to go through the data.

BEAUMONT KIN
You did great work buddy.

BD-81
Bwoop-boop! Beep be-beep boop.

FINN
He said thank you?

BEAUMONT KIN
He did, he also said you were a
big help, and that you saved him.

FINN
Ah well, he saved me too.

BEAUMONT KIN goes through the data. FINN walks over to the door and pulls out his comlink. He talks into it.

FINN
Nast, come in Nast. It's Finn.
We're in Oga's Cantina, Black
Spire Outpost. We need to talk to
you in person. It's important.

REY is sitting in a booth all by herself. Her shoulder bag is on the table, as is her newly acquired Jedi Holocron. REY sits there, staring at the Holocron. She keeps trying to open it but is unsuccessful. FINN sees this and walks over to her.

FINN (CONT'D)
What do you got there Rey?

REY
It's a Jedi Holocron. It holds
information inside that only a
Jedi can access. And I can't get
it to open.

FINN
I'm sorry to hear that.

REY
I've read the books, I know how
to open a holocron. It just... it
isn't working for me and I don't
know why.

FINN
Well when we get it back to Leia,
maybe she'll be able to open it.

REY
Maybe, but it called to me Finn,
I swear it. Inside the temple,
voices were guiding me to the
holocron and I felt the force
pulling me towards it.

FINN hears this and reflects on the whispers he heard while he was inside the temple. At that moment the door to the cantina opens and BARON DRUX NAST and two of his Attsmun Industry Droids enter. BARON DRUX NAST is holding REY's staff. REY sees the Baron and puts the Jedi Holocron back in her shoulder bag.

BARON DRUX NAST
This is a nice place Finn, if I
wasn't being hunted by the First
Order I'd might stay and have a
drink or two.
