Plot summary[]
The video opens with BB-8 dodging laser fire at Niima Outpost on Jakku. The narrator explains that in a "galaxy of adventures," BB-8 rolls into battle. BB-8 knocks down two First Order stormtroopers before escaping with Finn and Rey aboard the Millennium Falcon. After Rey fires off the ship's engines, BB-8 clings to safety by using his grappling cable.
The video then jumps to BB-8 flying with Poe Dameron in his T-70 X-wing starfighter Black One during the attack on the Resistance navy. After the fighter is hit, Poe tasks BB-8 with repairing the ship's weapon system. The dutiful BB-8 descends down the astromech socket, repairing the targeting system just in time for Poe to shoot down a TIE/sf space superiority fighter.
Later, BB-8 fires coins at officers from the Canto Bight Police Department. He then comes to Finn and Rose Tico's rescue aboard the blazing hangar of the Mega-class Star Dreadnought Supremacy. BB-8 hijacks a First Order All Terrain Scout Transport and shoots down several stormtroopers. Finn and Rose ride with BB-8 in the walker. Finn gives BB-8 a thumbs up and the droid returns the favor with his spark projector.

- ↑ This episode begins during the events of Before the Awakening and ends during the events of Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary places Poe's story in Before the Awakening in 3 BSI and Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi in 0 ASI, meaning that Before the Awakening takes place three years prior to the Starkiller Incident, which Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates to 34 ABY. Therefore Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi takes place in 34 ABY, Before the Awakening takes place in 31 ABY, and this episode must take place during these years.
