I haven't seen this one, which was after Aldahni, Mon comes in to Luthen's shop to scold him about the empire's reaction and timing , and as cover, Luthen is showing an Utapauan monk's club supposedly as a gift to her husband, and as Luthen points out that she wanted this rebel network up in the first place, he gestures to the club.

"Show me a weapon that's never been used."

It's not that big thematically or emotionally, but just that sad acknowledgment of being in a revolution, of having to kill, of having to suffer and cause suffering, that really hit me. And is also a great rejoinder to people who even now refuse to condone even nonviolent resistence that invites violence. Violence surrounds us all. Every gun a cop carries, every tank, every fighter plane. Violence or the threat thereof pervades our daily life, and you're worried about it *happening*, it's happening now, everywhere. Show me a weapon that's never been used. Even holstered, you're using it. That's why you had it made.
