BEWARE SPOILERS: Just like with the previous Disney Plus series, we at Fantha Tracks will be offering our own episode guide for your entertainment! Here we will post every reference, Easter egg, everything named and unnamed per episode and some fun trivia in-between that we have spotted.
Official summary: Hera tangles with New Republic politics while Ahsoka and Sabine Wren voyage to a distant planet.
Trivia
When we see Huyang with four arms holding lightsabers, it brings to mind General Grievous.
Kee-ray, guy-kee, key-say, yo-kee, yah-tay and Zatochi are all new lightsaber training related terms and techniques.
You can also spot some training remotes when Ahsoka picks out the helmet from the training supply cabinet. The helmet spots a new Jedi Order-like symbol on it. And with the helmet comes the famous lesson from A New Hope on how your eyes can deceive you.
The training is done with a wooden bokken saber. The name for these sabers is new, but they have appeared once in both The Clone Wars and Rebels.
In the New Republic Fleet you can spot: the new unidentified ship type debuting in this series, Sphyrna-class Hammerhead corvettes, CR90 corvettes (Rebel blockade runners), an EF76 Nebulon-B escort frigate and of course the Home One.
First Officer Vic Hawkinis, played by Nican Robinson, is the person escorting Hera to the Senate Committee. There we see also a new character that got named in the End Credits: Lt. Beyta, a Mon Calamari pilot played by Dawn Dinniger.
Mon Mothma is of course played again by Genevieve O’Reilly, but this is the first time she plays Mothma around the time of Return of the Jedi or later, having only played her younger version during the Prequels and the early days of the Rebel Alliance.
The other big cameo in the Senate Committee is that of Senator Xiono. This is Hamato Xiono, the senator of Hosnian Prime, who is the father of Kazuda from Resistance. There he was voiced by Tzi Ma, here Senator Xiono was played by Nelson Lee. Two of the other three Senators are named in End Credits: Senator Rodrigo, played by Jacqueline Antaramian, and Senator Mawood, played by Maurice Irvin. It is unknown of which planets or sectors they are the senators of. Completely unknown is the Gran Senator, who is unnamed, but one can assume he is the senator of Malastare.
Mothma asked after Jacen, who is the son of Hera and Kanan as revealed in the Rebels epilogue. Later he appears, older since we are a few years later in the timeline, but still with the green hair. He wants to be a Jedi, considering he is the son of one, it is likely that he is Force-sensitive. He was played by Evan Whitten.
Some previously unknowns got named in this episode. The name of the ship that the Sith attacked in the first episode is the Vesper. The shipyards seen in the previous episode are named the Santhe Shipyards, which makes this the shipyards of the Santhe Corporation, which produced the LAAT line of transports (the Republic gunships) with Rothana Heavy Engineering. TIE Factory Coronet-SFS-14 in Solo, seen during the speeder chase, was also a joint operation of Santhe with Sienar.
Friends of Hera that died due to fighting Thrawn of course include Kanan, but also Gregor.
Huyang speaks of historically being a few Mandalorians who became a Jedi. We only know of one so far, the first one and the inventor of the Darksaber, Tarre Vizsla.
The cup wins this round, and we have all been there haven’t we? Be it with a cup or a remote that we are trying to call to us with a Force we do not have access to.
They get attacked by Shin, Marrok and others using unidentified starfighters. Shin however wears a com-set with mike like the Jedi did in their Delta starfighters, or like the one seen in the Millennium Falcon turrets.
Huyang guessed what we also guessed: the Eye Of Sion to be some sort of hyperspace ring.
Marrok speaks for the first time, and while he was previously only listed as the Performance Artist, Paul Darnell is now fully listed to be Marrok.
Glimpsed only as silhouettes in The Mandalorian Chapter 17: The Apostate, this episode had the big moment of reveal for the live-action purrgil.
