The Mandalorian reaches out to his old friend Ran, who has assembled a crew consisting of ex-Imperial sharpshooter Mayfeld, the Devaronian strongman Burg, the droid pilot Zero, and the Twi'lek woman Xi'an, to rescue Xi'an's brother Qin, a prisoner of the New Republic. Upon arrival on the prison ship, they fight through security droids and make it to the control room where a New Republic soldier triggers a beacon alerting the New Republic. The crew rescues Qin, but double crosses the Mandalorian. He escapes, isolates and defeats each crew member, then captures Qin. The Mandalorian delivers Qin to Ran and departs, but the New Republic beacon had been placed on Qin leading a trio of X-Wings to Ran's station. The last scene shows Mayfeld, Burg, and Xi'an in a cell on the prison transport, having been spared.
