Admiral Ozzel starts to report that the fleet has moved out of lightspeed, but he can’t finish his sentence. The admiral gasps for breath.

“You have failed me for the last time, Admiral. Captain Piett!”

“You are in command now, Admiral Piett.”
Piett is pleased by his sudden promotion, but he is also clearly quite afraid of Darth Vader after the presentation of his powers.
