Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016) ft. Ryan Pappolla

Watch on Philo! - Philo.tv/DTH

We meet a little girl named Jyn. Her family is in hiding. One day, the bad guy Orson shows up to tell Jyn's dad, Galen, that they need him to come back and finish the Death Star. Galen’s like, “I wouldn’t be any use—I’m just a sad sack ever since my wife died.” Suddenly, his wife comes running out of the field—so really bad timing, honestly. She has a gun and she’s like, “You’ll never take him!” Orson’s like, “I’m taking you all.” She shoots him. They shoot her. Orson tells his guys to go find the child, but Jyn is really good at hide-and-seek. She waits in the secret spot until a dude named Saw shows up. It’s clear they know each other.

Fast forward some time—Jyn is now an adult and in a holding cell. Meanwhile, a cargo pilot named Bodhi shows up and claims to Saw that he wants to join the Rebels.

Jyn is being transferred with other prisoners when Rebel forces suddenly break in and free them, led by Cassian Andor. Together, they fight stormtroopers and escape.

They take a reprogrammed Imperial droid named K-2SO and head somewhere else, where they encounter more stormtroopers who are gathering crystals to power the Death Star.

They're about to get captured, but a blind spiritual warrior named Chirrut Îmwe and his mercenary friend Baze Malbus help them out. This allows Jyn to make contact with Saw, who is holding Bodhi. She sees a message in which Galen reveals that he secretly built a vulnerability into the Death Star. The schematics are stored in an Imperial data vault.

Onboard the Death Star, Orson orders a test strike on the moon where the gang is. Jyn and her group take Bodhi and flee, but Saw stays behind and dies.

Orson gets an atta boy from his higher-up.

Bodhi leads the group to Galen’s Imperial research facility. Rebel bombers attack the site. Galen is wounded and dies in Jyn’s arms before she escapes with the group on a stolen Imperial cargo shuttle.

Orson is summoned by Darth Vader—he’s back, baby!—to explain the attack. Orson’s like, “Now that you’ve seen my work, maybe introduce me to the Emperor?” Vader force-chokes him and says, “Get back to work and don’t cause any more trouble.”

Jyn proposes a mission to steal the Death Star schematics, but the Alliance Council thinks there’s no chance of success. Frustrated by their inaction, Jyn’s group leads a small squad of volunteers—Bodhi dubs them “Rogue One.” Jyn, Cassian, and K-2SO infiltrate the Imperial base while the others create a diversion with a space battle.

The Alliance eventually joins the fight, sending their fleet. Jyn gets the schematics but is ambushed by Orson, who is shot and wounded by Cassian. Jyn transmits the schematics to the Rebel command ship just before the Death Star fires a beam that destroys the base—and them.

The Rebel fleet tries to escape, but many ships are intercepted by Darth Vader. He boards the command ship and wrecks everyone in an attempt to recover the plans, but a smaller ship escapes with them. Princess Leia declares that the schematics will provide hope for the Rebellion—some might even call it a new hope.
