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.
Chapter 4: Pride and Vengeance
Official summary: A confrontation between Lawson and Maul threatens everyone.
Trivia
The new style of animation that the series has really shows how much of an improvement it when we see the Pykes waiting for Looti at the landing pad. They are a nice mixture of what we saw before in The Clone Wars and in live-action The Book Of Boba Fett.
Kalt, captain of the guard, is another voice role for Steve Blum.
The ever illusive Officer Wade finally makes a full appearance in this episode. This is also not the only role that Avery Kidd Waddell has in this episode. He was also the Pyke Guard that you hear over the intercom at the beginning of the episode.
A lot of Aurebesh can be seen on the screens as Two-Boots tries to contact the Empire:
* ”TDF Link” – opening screen with the logo.
* “Report activity” – Upper left square as Two-Boots scrolls
“Known criminals” – Upper right square
“Data inquiry” – Lower left square
“Require assistance” – Lower right square
* Screen with Imperial logo: “Please confirm request for assistance” – “Abort” – “Confirm” – “Contact Imperial Security Bureau”
And very difficult to read, as they are partially obscured, it seems that the menu on the left is a general ‘Contact’ menu with options to contact: Payroll, Mailroom, traffic maintenance, station front desk, one that is not readable at all and then the earlier mentioned “Contact Imperial Security Bureau”.
The deactivation switch of Two-Boots is on his neck, just like with any protocol droid as seen since The Empire Strikes Back with C-3PO.
The way Maul crushes the cam droid with the Force reminds us of how in The Force Unleashed Starkiller crushes a lot of imperial vehicles.
Talking about parallels, the screaming spinning move that Maul makes is close to what Palpatine did in Revenge Of The Sith.
Once again a cue of Duel of The Heroes can be heard during the duel. This time right when Devon jumps in to save Master Daki.
Spybot hears a noise that has him alarmed. The sound effect used is that of the Imperial probe droid on Hoth from The Empire Strikes Back. The distant alarm we hear also sounds a lot like the Imperial alarms that are heard throughout the saga.
It also seems that the one episode were we can clearly identify Wade, was his last episode as well. As it is he who is seen carried out on a stretcher. The monitor on his stretcher is deactivated, while on one of the other stretchers we see the monitor lid up green, and is presumably still reading life signs.
Join us next week for the episode guide of Chapter 5 – Inquisition.
