On the first night of the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser, dinner features “An Evening with Gaya,” with a performance by the superstar in honor of its 275th anniversary. Her keyboardist, Ouanni, accompanies her. Warning, there are possible story spoilers ahead.
Cruise director Lenka Mok and Gaya’s manager Raithe Kole introduce Gaya and Ouanni.
Lenka also announces a toast later in the evening.
Gaya begins her performance off-stage, walking among guests.
Gaya is actually singing live.
At the end of the first song, Lenka whispers something to Gaya, and she sends Raithe on an errand.
Gaya continues to perform, mostly on stage but sometimes circling the dining room.
Between songs, she talks about her history and asks guests where they’re from.
Gaya is a Twi’lek from Ryloth, a planet that has been occupied many times. She mentions that the Ryloth Stone, which brought harmony to her planet, has gone missing, and she has been searching for it.
She invites fan and aspiring musician Sandro Alimander on stage with her for a song about coaxium.
Lt. Croy sits in on the performance early on, then later interrupts with Stormtroopers.
Gaya confronts him, sending him into stunned silence.
After Gaya returns to the stage, Captain Keevan whispers something to her. Gaya then leads the room in a dance, with help from Raithe and Sandro.
Gaya insists Lt. Croy join the dancing, and Raithe keeps him in the crowd. Is it possible this is all a distraction…?
Captain Keevan and Sammie, the mechanic, then present the Resistance fugitive Chewbacca to Croy.
Croy wants to take Chewbacca away, but Keevan insists Croy stay and continue to enjoy the performance.
Captain Keevan and Sammie escort Chewbacca from the dining room.
Croy then leaves, and Raithe whispers one final message to Gaya before her final song. As she says to the audience, “You’ll have to ask me later to reveal my secrets.”
