- "Intercepted Imperial transmission, ma'am. Rebels on Scarif."
- ―Tenzigo Weems to Mon Mothma on Rogue One starting the Battle of Scarif
Tenzigo Weems was a human male Signals Intelligence technician in General Davits Draven's command at the Alliance to Restore the Republic's headquarters in the Great Temple on Yavin 4, where he was part of a team of analysts deciphering communications chatter from across the galaxy.[2] He analyzed a packet of data intercepted from the Balmorra relay that contained the names of classified Imperial projects and reported his findings to Draven.[3] Private Weems tracked the progress of Operation Fracture from Jedha to Eadu,[2] and alerted Chancellor Mon Mothma when an intercepted Imperial transmission revealed that the squad Rogue One had instigated the Battle of Scarif.[1] Later, he picked up a signal from Lieutenant Caluan Ematt, in which Ematt stated that his unit, the Shrikes, had been eliminated by Alecia Beck and the ISB, and that he was stuck on the Outer Rim planet Cyrkon.[3]
Behind the scenes
Weems was portrayed by Eric MacLennan in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and was credited as Rebel Technician #1.[1] MacLennan later reprised his role in season two of Andor.[4]
