Jyn, Cassian, Baze Malbus, Bistan, Chirrut – just a few of the Rogue One characters, a blitz of names that reads like the fevered output of a Star Wars Galaxies random name generator. The sobriquet Saw Gerrera is particularly memorable out – but I understand why it’s tough to get on a first-name basis with this guy…
“Have you seen Saw?”
“I saw Saw on Saturday. He didn’t look good.”
“Where did you see Saw?”
“On Saturday? I saw Saw at the Holy See.”
“Who did Saw see at the See?”
“I don’t know. I’m worried he’s having a personal crisis.”
“He’s probably despondent. The Sith got a second seat during a secret Senate session.”
“You’d despair too, if you were six-sevenths machine. Yesterday I had to saw Saw’s seventh finger out of a sewing droid. He was trying to sew his seersucker suit.”
“I’ll bet Saw saw someone at the See to make his peace. He might be looking to the end. I just hope he can fulfill his final wishes.”
“What’s that?”
“Saw wants to see the sea before he dies.”
“I thought you saw Saw at the See on Saturday?”
“… I gotta be honest. I don’t know what we’re talking about anymore…”
