The guy who defected from the empire


You know the guy who had his mind probed by the tentacle monster, what was his occupation? I think I heard somewhere he was a pilot but the movie didn't really make it clear. Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

reply

As I recall, he said he worked as a janitor on the 476th floor of the Imperial brothel.

reply

Don't think he was a janitor, Finn was a janitor but I was referring to rogue one, it's the guy who Forrest whitikar mind probed with the tentacle creature.

reply

Oh, right. In that case, he was the fluffer.

reply

I need to watch it again, I really want to know what this guys profession is, maybe if I pay very close attention I can figure it out.

reply

Good luck on that task. It has everything to do with the rest of the plot, I assure you. When you find out, you will experience a revelation that will make your soul tingle with ecstasy.

reply

I think it was pilot. Either that or the squeegee guy that does the brothel floors at 6:00a.m. every morning.

reply

Why can't he do both?

reply

He was a pilot stationed at the same facility as Galen Erso, Jyn’s (the lead actress) father. Galen gave him the death star plans and the message for Jyn telling her about the flaw he intentionally designed

reply

Then Galen gave him the squeegee and told him to clean up before he left?

reply

I don't think he was a pilot.

reply

Right, we've been through this. His job was to squeegee up the Imperial love juices.

reply

I think you may be right but he definitely wasn't a pilot.

reply


Who??

Bodhi Rook, there is no way he was a pilot.

reply

I think he mentioned he was a cargo pilot. He seemed very knowledgeable about some places they visited, which he has likely visited many times on his routes. Think of him as your friendly Imperial FedEx driver.

The mind probe scene with the tentacle monster was terrible, btw. Take that awful scene out please.

reply

That entire movie was terrible, ever since Disney took over the Star Wars franchise has gone to sh!t.

reply

he was indeed a cargo pilot.....then dropped his load in the brothel
