Quotes
-
Orson Krennic : [while meeting with Darth Vader] I delivered the weapon the Emperor requested. I deserve an audience to make certain he understands its remarkable... potential.
Darth Vader : Its power to create problems has certainly been confirmed. A city destroyed... an Imperial facility openly attacked.
Orson Krennic : It was Governor Tarkin that suggested the test.
Darth Vader : You were not summoned here to grovel, Director Krennic.
Orson Krennic : No, it...
Darth Vader : There is no Death Star. The Senate has been informed that Jedha was destroyed in a mining disaster.
Orson Krennic : [resigned] Yes, my lord.
Darth Vader : I expect you not to rest until you can assure the Emperor that Galen Erso has not compromised this weapon in any way.
-
Galen Erso : [goes out of his house to meet Krennic] What is it that you want?
Orson Krennic : The work has stalled. We need you to come back.
Galen Erso : [disagrees] I won't do it, Krennic.
Orson Krennic : We were on the verge of greatness. We were this close to providing peace and security for the galaxy.
Galen Erso : You're confusing peace with terror.
Orson Krennic : Well, you have to start somewhere.
-
Orson Krennic : [corners Jyn and holds a blaster directly at her] Who are you?
Jyn Erso : You know who I am. I'm Jyn Erso, daughter of Galen and Lyra. You've lost.
Orson Krennic : [sarcastically] Oh I have, have I?
Jyn Erso : My father's revenge: he put a flaw in the Death Star. He put a fuse in the middle of your machine. And I've just told the entire galaxy how to light it.
Orson Krennic : The shield is up. Your signal will never reach the Rebel base. All your ships in here will be destroyed. I lose nothing but time. *You*, on the other hand, die with the Rebellion.
-
[watching the Death Star destroy Jedha City]
Orson Krennic : Oh, it's beautiful.
-
Orson Krennic : [angrily, to Tarkin] We stand here amidst *my* achievement! Not yours!
-
Orson Krennic : [witnessing explosions all over the base in Scarif; at first, the personnel do nothing] Are we blind! Deploy the garrison! MOVE!
-
Orson Krennic : [Lyra appears, holding a blaster, after Galen had said she had died] Oh, look! Here's Lyra. Back from the dead. It's a miracle.
-
Orson Krennic : You're a hard man to find, Galen. But farming... Really? Man of your talents?
Galen Erso : It's a peaceful life.
-
Grand Moff Tarkin : Most unfortunate about the security breach on Jedha, Director Krennic. After so many setbacks and delays, and now this. We've heard of rumors circulating through the city. Apparently, you've lost a rather talkative cargo pilot. If the Senate gets wind of our project, countless systems will flock to the Rebellion.
Orson Krennic : When the battle station is finished, Governor Tarkin, the Senate will be of little concern.
Grand Moff Tarkin : When has become now, Director Krennic. The Emperor will tolerate no further delay. You have made time an ally of the Rebellion. I suggest we solve both problems simultaneously with an immediate test of the weapon. Failure will find you explaining why to a far less patient audience.
Orson Krennic : [glaring at Tarkin] I will not fail.
-
Grand Moff Tarkin : [as the Death Star approaches Jedha] The Emperor is awaiting my report.
Orson Krennic : One would hope that he and Lord Vader might've been here for such an occasion.
Grand Moff Tarkin : And I thought it prudent to save you from any potential embarrassment.
Orson Krennic : Your concerns are hardly warranted.
Grand Moff Tarkin : If saying it would only make it so.
-
Lyra Erso : You're not taking him.
Orson Krennic : No, of course I'm not. I'm taking you all. You'll all come. You, your child. You'll all live in comfort.
Lyra Erso : As hostages.
Orson Krennic : As heroes of the Empire.
-
Orson Krennic : They have a child! *Find it*!
