Question: C3PO is talking to R2 and says "Scariff..." If they are at the base, how do they get on Leia's ship for her to give R2 the plans? I don't think she picked them up since she is being chased by Vader's ship.

Answer: Princess Leia is not being chased by Vader's ship until after the events of this movie. The entire fleet heads off to Scarif, and she picks up C3PO and R2 off-camera. At the battle on Scarif, we see the mothership get boarded by Darth Vader, and then we see the smaller ship make their escape. That ship contains Princess Leia and the two droids, which is subsequently being chased at the beginning of Episode IV.
