    Vader allowed Kenobi to escape. Yet he blames others if they lose hold on him.

    How did the Inquisitors base not have radar or anything that could pick up the underground's ships?

    So this episode jumped a bit for me at the beginning. Perhaps i wasnt fully awake but it felt like it through new characters at me.

    Once we got to the fortress, things were much better. Called the droid having the tracker in it.

    Though i think the droid has been reprogrammed and will have to be sacrificed/killed by series end.

    I believe it will represent leia loosing her childlike innocence fully. 3rd sister hints at how sge had one when she was young and it was taken from her. So i see mirror image being projected there on lose of innocence

    My Tamagotchi died when I was just 8 years old. After that I was never the same.

    No shield, no Tie-Fighter, no radar, no defense turrets. That's a joke.
    Ah, and an another balls-less officer who sits by security rules just because she has a higher rank (and not her superior). As if ranks above his couldn't be traitors. As if Darth Vader would reproach him for doing his job too well. Darth Vader kills the incompetent, not those who do their job.
    This scenario was written by an intern.

    You'd think they'd scramble a few of the TIES they had hanging in the hanger as soon as the initial alarm went off

    “I am your commanding officer”… Um, no she’s not. Lol. There’s a huge difference between commanding officer and superior officer.

    By the way, remember the planet was supposed to be locked after Obiwan's escape? Well done Darth Vader...

    I guess apologists could say that 3rd Sister told the security officer to relax his guard and told the base to not fight back effectively in order to set up the story line of allowing them to escape so they could follow them to their base. It’s the same theory that’s been around forever to explain why the good guys always escape overwhelming forces. Leia even says so when they escape the Death Star. But if the writers want you to believe that, then they need to do a better job of portraying that.

    The problems I’ve had with this show so far are that there are moments and scenarios that pull you out of your immersion in the story. Too many “Wait, what?!?” moments. I shouldn’t have to stop paying attention to what’s going on in the show to try to figure out why something they just said or did doesn’t make sense.

    That being said, this episode was enjoyable. There were still some odd moments, but overall I enjoyed it.

    It happens.

    So we are now down to 2 episodes for this season to have any redemptive quality. Unreal.

    Whats unreal is that whe have probably spent at least half of the time on Reva and Leia instead of Kenobi and Anakin.

    All of Hollywood does this same stupid trope. So it's not a huge surprise they'd do the same thing here. It's not like there are millions of veterans in the country that could advise them on reality in the military...

    Why would they need a shield though? No one would "dare" attack this facility. I'm guessing that since it was built no one actually did. There were also tie fighters staged in the facility. (They did also let the Millenium Falcon leave the Death Star with very little resistance.)

    As far as the officer, I imagine that is reality quite often with human beings. Not necessarily just in the military, but even in real life. (Celebrities play that game all the time after all.) This was also one of the reasons the empire failed. Everyone was so afraid of getting punished they didn't want to stand out or question anything.

    I’m waiting for the nerdier than me types to ID all the Jedi encased in orange jello.
    I’m glad OB got his swagger back finally. Washed up Ben was annoying.

    Also isn't a droid kind of a pet? (In this situation, atleast)

    Dogs are pets but arent they also "man's best friend"?

    Really lazy writing. Makes me sad.

    They should have made this more personal/intimate show and forget all the shooting and chasing.

    The entire inquisitor fortress was so dumb. Not believable at all. If they have no reason to protect the place "cos noone dares to attack", then why they had so many stormtrooppers and officers patrolling all the corridors and the hangar?

    They had no knowledge of the place, yet they know there is an underwater secret entrance and some random console you can just sit in and control the entire fortress. :tired_face:
