In the one-hour premiere titled "The Recruit," Poe and
BB-8 assign newly-appointed spy Kaz to the Colossus, a
massive aircraft re-fueling platform on an outer rim
water planet, home to colorful new aliens, droids, and
creatures. While undercover, Kaz works as a mechanic
and lives with Poe's old friend Yeager, a veteran pilot
who operates a starship repair shop run by his crew:
Tam, Neeku, and their old battered astromech droid,
Bucket. Kaz soon finds himself in over his head with
his new friend BB-8 as he'll have to compete in
dangerous sky races, keep his mission a secret from his
newfound family, and avoid the danger of the First
Order.
