StarWars.com takes a look at last Friday’s magnificent 10th episode of The Clone Wars final season, The Phantom Apprentice, delving into 5 facts from this absolute treat of an episode.
Ahsoka’s choice.
In the throne room, Maul reaches his hand out to Ahsoka, offering a chance to join forces and defeat Darth Sidious and, in this moment, we see just how alike the two are — apprentices cast aside, either willingly or forcibly, now outcasts in a system on the verge of collapse. Lots of Star Wars: The Last Jedi vibes here. Together they have the skills and abilities to potentially bring the Sith Lord to his knees. And surprisingly, unlike when Rey faces Kylo Ren, Ahsoka agrees to help Maul. But the answer she seeks to the question of what Maul wants to do with Anakin soon has her doubling back on the pact. “I know Anakin,” she says. “Your vision is flawed.”
The Fantha Tracks team dive deep into the episode in our review, which will arrive on the site tomorrow, as will episode 34 of making Tracks which will also chew over this key episode.
