Quotes 

• Ranzar Malk : Well, Mayfeld - he's one of the best triggermen I've seen. Former Imperial sharpshooter.

  The Mandalorian : That's not saying much.

  Mayfeld : I wasn't a Stormtrooper, wise-ass!

• Ranzar Malk : We were all young, tryin' to make a name for ourselves. But runnin' with a Mandalorian, that brought us some reputation

  Mayfeld : Oh, yeah? What did he get out of it?

  Ranzar Malk : I asked him that one time. You remember what you said, Mando? Target Practice

• Mayfeld : So, the package is being moved on a fortified transport ship. Now, we got a limited window to board, find our friend, get him out of there before they make their jump.

  The Mandalorian : That's a New Republic prison ship. Your man wasn't taken by a rival syndicate. He was arrested.

  Mayfeld : So what?

  Ranzar Malk : A job is a job.

  The Mandalorian : That's a max security transport, and I'm not looking for that kind of heat.

  Ranzar Malk : Well, neither are we. So just don't mess up.

  Xi'an : The good news for you is the ship is manned by droids. Still hate the machines, Mando?

• Ranzar Malk : Where are the others?

  The Mandalorian : No questions asked. That's the policy, right?

  Ranzar Malk : Yeah. That is the policy.

  The Mandalorian : I did the job.

  Ranzar Malk : [paying him]  Yeah, you did.

  The Mandalorian : Just like the good old days.

• Zero : [coming off the Razor Crest]  Despite recent modifications, the ship is still quite a mess. The power lines are leaking, the navigation is intermittent, and the hyperdrive is only operating at 67.3% efficiency. We have much better ships. Why are we using this one?

  Ranzar Malk : 'Cause the Razor Crest is off the old Imperial and the New Republic grid. It's a ghost.

  Mayfeld : Yeah, and we need a ship that can get close enough to jam New Republic code. So, when we drop out of hyperspace here, if we immediately bank into this kinda attitude, we should be right in their blind spot, which will give us just enough time for your ship to scramble our signal.

  The Mandalorian : It's not possible. Even for the Crest.

  Ranzar Malk : [indicating Zero]  That's why he's flyin'. Mando, I know you're a pretty good pilot, but we need you on the trigger. Not on the wheel.

  Zero : Don't worry, Mandalorian. My response time is quicker than organics. And I'm smarter, too.

  Ranzar Malk : All right. I... yeah. That's good. Forgive the programming. He's a little rough around the edges. But he is the best.

  The Mandalorian : How can you trust it?

  Ranzar Malk : You know me, man. I don't trust anybody.

• Ranzar Malk : To be honest, I was a little surprised when you reached out to me. You know, 'cause I... I hear things. Like maybe things between you and the Guild aren't... aren't workin' out.

  The Mandalorian : I'll be fine.

  Ranzar Malk : Okay. Well, you know the policy. No questions. And you, you're welcome back here anytime.

• Qin : [finding the New Republic tracker on him]  What's this?

  Ranzar Malk : [realizing Mando double-crossed them]  That bastard.

• Ranzar Malk : Man, we did some crazy stuff, didn't we?

  The Mandalorian : That was a long time ago.

  Ranzar Malk : Well... well, I don't go out anymore. You understand? So, uh, Mayfeld, he's gonna run point on this job. If he says it, it's like it's comin' from me. You good with that?

  The Mandalorian : You tell me.

  Ranzar Malk : [laughing]  You haven't changed one bit.

• The Mandalorian : So, what's the job?

  Ranzar Malk : Yeah, one of our associates ran afoul of some competitors and got himself caught. So I'm puttin' together a crew to spring him. It's a five-person job. I got four. All I need is the ride, and you brought it.

  The Mandalorian : The ship wasn't part of the deal.

  Ranzar Malk : Well, the Crest is the only reason I let you back in here. What's the look? Is that gratitude?

  [laughing] 

  Ranzar Malk : Uh-huh. I think it is.
