The Best Peli Motto Quotes

Peli: Great news! I found you a turbonic venturi power assimilator. You're gonna be the fastest ship on the Outer Rim.
The: Where did you get this?
Peli: It's brand-new. Well, Jawa-new.
The: The Jawas had a turbonic venturi assimilator from a Galactic Republic-era starfighter?
Peli: Well, they didn't have it. They got it.
The: From where?
Peli: Tatooine is a garden of many bounties.
The: I don't understand.
Peli: I gave 'em a list.
The: Of parts?
Peli: Yeah.
The: And they find them for you?
Peli: I don't ask. They don't tell. They give me what I ask for. In exchange, I let 'em pick through my dumpster.
The: Can I meet them?
Peli: Yeah, sure.
[shouting off]
Peli: R5! See if the Jawas are still out back. Dated a Jawa for a while. They're quite furry. Very furry. Lot of issues.

The: Where's the Razor Crest?
Peli: I never said I had a Razor Crest. I said I had a *replacement* for a Razor Crest.
The: I don't have time for this.
Peli: Hang on a second. Do you have any idea what this is? This is an N-1 starfighter, handmade for the royal guard and commissioned personally by the Queen of Naboo.
The: This is a pile of junk.
Peli: Do you want your credits back?
The: Yes.
Peli: No skin off my dip-swap. Droids, bring this lovely man his money. Here you go. It's that easy. Sorry to waste your time. Okay? While we're waiting, can I tell you a little something about this honey? I know she doesn't look like much, but you got here a lot earlier than I expected and I didn't get a chance to finish. I mean, clearly, you can see I've got all the parts right here. Hmm? It all has a home. Okay? Oh, look, a family of scurriers. Let's not disrupt the nest. You know how hard it is to find all original parts from way back in the Galactic Republic? I mean, these are all handmade. No droids. And not only that, what I'm gonna do, just because I like you, is I'm gonna add on some custom modifications that'll make her faster than a fathier, and because this baby's pre-Empire, she's off the grid. And did I mention she can jump into hyperspace with no docking ring? I mean, come on! You gotta see the potential. I'm telling you, Mando, you gotta believe me. This is a classic. Look, at least let me put her together before you decide. Can you give me that? There you go. Hmm?
[getting to work]
Peli: Get this baby up and goin'. You know, it'd be a lot faster if you helped.

Mok: I am not a threat.
Peli: Nice head-tails. Come on. Get behind me, pretty face. Peli's got you covered.
Mok: Pleasure to make your acquaintance.
Peli: We don't have time for that.

Peli: [building Mando a new ship] Well? How was it?
The: Wizard.
Peli: Ha. Those J-type pulse engines really tighten the old evacuation port, don't they? Oh, by the way, an old friend of yours dropped by, said she was looking for you.
The: A friend of mine?
Peli: Don't worry. I told her I didn't know where you were. Then I locked her out and engaged the hangar security system.
The: She tell you her name?
Fennec: Fennec Shand.
Peli: [after jumping in surprise, to one of her pit droids] I thought you said that the hangar security system was on. Don't get away from me. You come back right here. This is the third mistake this week. Someone's getting deprogrammed.

Peli: [watching Mando fight with Fett's rancor] Don't worry, kid. Your old man's crafty.
[the rancor puts Mando in its mouth, but its teeth can't penetrate his armor]
Peli: Ooh, spoke too soon.

Peli: So, where's your unlikely companion?
The: I returned him to his own kind.
Peli: Why the hell would you do that? I could've made good money off that thing. Open a petting zoo.

Peli: [unveiling Mando's new starfighter] Not a gram of fat on her. You know, no one's catching you in this thing.
The: What happened to the droid port?
Peli: I hogged it out. You know, I figured, with your disposition, you'd wanna forgo the astromech.
[her R5 unit beeps and chirps]
Peli: Hey! Watch your language around the customers.
The: [giving the ship a once-over inspection] Think she's ready?
Peli: Ready as she'll ever be.

The: [riding on the back of Peli's rickshaw] Can this thing go any faster?
Peli: [throwing a tool at her piloting droid] Go faster, you bucket of bolts!

The: [rebuilding a Naboo starfighter] The entire vapor manifold is missing.
Peli: Trust me, the last thing you want strangling your thrust capacitor is a vapor manifold. I fabricated you this induction intake charger that's gonna double your output coefficient.
The: It'll also blow the shaft out of my motivator block.
Peli: That's why I'm reinforcing your compression housing, and you can access it by using this Kineso-switch right here. You hit this button, you're gonna evacuate your exhaust manifold, if you know what I mean.

The: [Jawas bring a part for his new ship] That was fast.
Peli: These critters could find a skud in a krill pond. Will that do?
The: Where did they get a cryogenic density combustion booster?
Peli: Do you really wanna know?
The: Sure.
Peli: [conversing in Jawaese] I got it. They said they crawled under a Pyke spice runner and crimped it off while they were refueling.
The: Gutsy little fellas.
Peli: Let me tell you something, Pykes do not mess around. Ever since they've been moving spice through the system, everything's gone to hell. Everyone's afraid of 'em and law enforcement won't even go near 'em.
The: [paying the Jawas] Well, thanks.
Peli: Thanks? What? Are you kidding me? What'd you do that for? You're gonna spoil 'em. Are you trying to make me look bad?

Peli: What do we owe the pleasure? You here to slay another dragon? Chasing down some elusive bounty?
The: I got your message.
Peli: Message? What message?
The: You said you found me a replacement for the Razor Crest.
Peli: Yeah, that's right. That's what I said. That's what I do. I've been working my butt off, yeah. Did you bring the cash?
The: [handing a pouch of credits over] It's right here.
Peli: Mind if I count it? Not that I don't trust you. I just wanna make sure you don't give me too much.

Peli: Mando! Ha! We found you! I got a surprise for you.
The: Turn around!
Peli: What?
The: Turn around!
Peli: Can't hear you!
[seeing a battle droid approach]
Peli: TURN AROUND!

Peli: Hey, Mando! Look who's here.
The: [she unveils Grogu] What? Hey, what are you doing here?
[Grogu jumps into his arms]
The: Oh! Okay, little guy. I'm happy to see you, too. I didn't know when I'd see you again. It's okay. Yeah. I missed you, too, buddy. But, uh... we're in a bit of a bind here right now.
[putting him down]
The: Be careful. You keep your head down. You stay hidden until the fight's over.
[seeing he's wearing the beskar vest]
The: Hey, that's the shirt. You got the shirt.
Peli: [reacting to cannon fire] Save your tender moment. We've got a Scorpenek droid chasing us.
The: What is he doing here?
Peli: The Force works in mysterious ways.

The: That's a lot of engine for a little ship.
Peli: Yeah, well, see what she can do!
The: Shouldn't we run a diagnostic first?
Peli: Nah! I can hear her! She's purring! Send her up!

The: [giving his new ship a test flight] She handles a little bumpy.
Peli: You're used to a gunship, but she's a starfighter. So fly her like one.
The: Okay. I'll open her up.
[accelerating]
The: Dank farrik, she's fast.
Peli: Smooth?
The: As a gonk's scomp jack.
Peli: There you go. Some teamwork.
The: Controls are real snappy. How's the maneuverability?
Peli: You tell me. Point your navigational disposition between the two suns. You'll come up to Beggar's Canyon.
[he flies through the canyons]
Peli: How's the handling?
The: Tight. She tracks like a railspeeder.
Peli: What did I tell you?
[derisively]
Peli: Razor Crest.

Peli: [an X-wing lands at her garage] I filed for my New Republic certification seal just as you were landing. Quite a coincidence if you ask me.
[Grogu pokes his head over the canopy]
Peli: Well, look who it is! Aw! Did they teach you how to fly an X-wing already?
[one of her pit droids chitters]
Peli: I know an astromech flew the ship.
[in the technical socket, R2 chirps]
Peli: The Mandalorian? He's not here. I don't know. He's on a job in Mos Espa. But just slow down. Give me a second. You just got here. Let me say hello to my old pal.
[picking Grogu up]
Peli: Well, hello, bright eyes. Come here.
[R2 chirps again]
Peli: Grogu? Whoa! That's a terrible name. Sorry about that, pal. No way am I calling you that.

The: If I give them a list of parts, could they get them for me?
Peli: [conversing in Jawaese] They said make a wishlist and they'll see what's available.
The: Okay, I'm looking for mostly bolt-on aftermarket speed mods. This is all hand-built, custom. I'm guessing we need vintage hyperware if it's gonna fit this antique.
Peli: Listen to you. Don't worry about the shape and size. Just get the parts you want with the specs you need, and I'm gonna make it work, all right? I dated a Jawa. I know what I'm doing, right?

Peli: Do you know how lucky you are that I got my hands on this baby? You want to thank me now or you want to thank me later?
The: You get me a Razor Crest, you can have it right back.
Peli: Oh, bantha diddle, these are a lot harder to come by than some plain old Razor Crest.
[scoffing]
Peli: Razor Crest.
