    #Ahsoka #Episode4 #EasterEggs
    We are going to break down lots of hidden Star Wars details, and a little later I’m going to talk about what Marrok revealed.
    Doug: Yeah that was lame. I thought he was going to be Ezra or something.
    No, actually the marrok reveal is badass, and a little later I’m going to explain why. And of course we’re going to talk about that ending, and how it was actually foreshadowed by the brand new, canon book, Return of the Jedi, from a certain point of view.
    And before we get rolling everyone I want to say thanks for watching our channel, we love making these breakdowns for you, and we also appreciate so many of you shipping our new merch store where we come up with the designs and design the shirts ourselves. Wear l'aunch was a big success, and thank you for buying shirts like the prequel apologist, Hello there, somehow palpatine returned, and the apprentice lives. The link is in ehs encryption, screencrush merch dot com, you guys rock.
    So let’s break down this episode: the fallen Jedi. The episode starts with huyang repairing the ship, calling out to home one. Now home one is the capital ship commanded by Admiral ackbar in Return of the Jedi, where he said this [it’s a trap]. And I neglected to mention last week that the meeting room where Hera talked to a hologram of mon mothma was also where mon mothma announced the attack on the death star [many bothans died…].
    But my favorite easter egg in the episode might have been this [this is fulcrum]. So this is Ahsoka’s code name, that she used in Rebels [clip]. Now the show rebels kept this a secret for the whole first season, [clip] but there was a value-when Hera communicated with Fulcrum, we saw Ahsoka ‘s facial marking a s her call sign. Like on the apprentice lives tee shirt.
    And it also came to be used by other rebel spies, like agent Callus, who used a hologram of ahsoka facial markings, just like on the apprentice lives tee shirt. who used this same hologram. But the clone wars final seasons revealed that “fulcrum” was the name of Anakin's personal channel during the clone wars [clip]. So this brief name drop of this easter egg is actually very subtle foreshadowing anakin's return at the end of this episode.
    So then Ahsoka gives Sabine a little foreshadowing heavy pep talk, doing the ol’ “can I count on you” to foreshadow that no, indeed, you cannot count on her. But in this talk, Ahsoka calls thrawn [heir to the empire], which is of course the series of novels that introduced thrawn way back in 1991. Ahsoka is setting up Sabine for an all or nothing choice-saying that she will have to leave Ezra behind, if they have to make that sacrifice.
    This mirrors the sacrifice of Ezra at the end of rebels, when he used the prugill to transport Thrawn and himself to another galaxy, separating himself from his friends [clip, always the plan].
    Doug: Kind of like how Spock sacrificed his life in wrath of Khan, but then the whole crew risked their lives to get them back.
    That’s true, but I-
    So back to Ahsoka. This whole sequence where huyang is repairing the ship wheel they hide from the plot feels very much like the empire strikes back to me, when the millennium falcon is hiding in the asteroid belt. In both sequences they're repairing the ship, but you also have this fear of encroaching danger.
    But speaking of fear, how badass is this line when Baylon talks about Ahsoka being formidable [not of fear..experience]. So , so frickin’ cool. Ray Stevenson was some of Hollywood's most underrated actors for years-and it's a shame that he dind't live to see who this performance is being received by fans. He adds this kind of elegance to Baylon-like Alec Guiness’s obi wan, he creates this idea of a debonair knight from a bygone age.

    I am GENUINLY and ANGERLY and SADLY upset that Ray Stevenson passed away. His performance as Baylan is absolutely masterpiece. It took him very little time on screen to become such a fan favorite across the whole SW fandom, man, what a talent.

    I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure Sabine didn’t use the force on Shin. I think Shin was bracing herself to be Force pushed and when nothing happens realized Sabine wasn’t force sensitive and that’s why she said “You have no power”.

      @KiltedVeteran ปีที่แล้ว +16

      I thought the same thing at first, but I rewatched that scene and it's faint but you can hear the force push sound that Star Wars likes to use when Sabine reaches out. When Shin said "You have no power." I think she was referring as compared to herself, Sabine has no power. As in that her ability in the Force is so weak or that Sabine is just straight up no match for her. Just my theory after watching it a few times.

    Bro, seeing a live action Ahsoka on the same screen as Hayden Christiansen is so significant to me. When I was a kid, I watched Clone Wars and I always wondered what happened to Ahsoka that she wasn't around during Episode 3, hoping nothing bad happened to her. I always hoped to see the two of them reunite on good terms after the fall of the Republic and Empire when I learned she survived Order 66 and her fight with Vader. And now, seeing that childhood dream come true, spanning over a decade and a half, I am filled with childlike glee. I can't wait for next week.

It's always impressed me how Filoni (mostly) manages to expand on ideas from the prequels and make them better, and make the prequels more interesting to watch again.

    What a damn good episode. The cinematography, and the dialogue were all great. The Baylon vs. Ahsoka fight was easily one of the best of the franchise. That ending made me cry. Filoni cooked! 10/10
    Also, I think that Baylon's lightsaber fighting style is a mix that of Qui-Gonn Jinn and Kylo Ren. Balanced but powerful. It's like he was weilding a claymore.

    Baylan is seriously one of the best new characters introduced in Disney Star Wars. As everyone else has said, Ray Stevenson was so underrated and it sucks knowing we won’t get more of him.
    As someone has been super critical of the show, especially the Ashoka and Sabine parts, this is the episode that finally has me hooked. It’s the first one that has me pissed and excited I have to wait a week and I’m now loving the direction of both Ashoka and Sabine. Never should have doubted Dave!
    Also.. the Maul theory… I’m really hoping he’s not brought back because like how many times does he have to die before they just let him be dead… HOWEVER if they did… I believe if Lucas had done the sequel trilogy himself that Maul would be the main villain. I don’t think they’re doing this but would be interesting if they set him up to the villain in the Rey movies and do a version of George’s vision for the sequel trilogy.

    8:20 small nitpick but the first live action appearance of the Ghost was in Rogue One during the battle of Scarif, also first live action appearance of Chopper if I'm not mistaken (and Hera Syndulla was named through a speaker in the background).
    As for the episode, that was just peak Star Wars, but also and especially peak Clone Wars & Rebels.

Also this story about Ashoka training Sabine in the force when that never took place on Rebels.

Baylon is the highest of high notes in his career. On the other, it’s devastating that we will never get to see him continue in this role or any others.

    Okay so during sabines time as ashokas apprentice, they found out about Gideons attack and sabine wanted to help on mandilore when Moff Gideon attacked. Ashoka did not let Sabine go and her family died.
    Im guessing Sabine went behind ashokas back or tried to warn someone etc etc and Ashoka stopped her. That caused a split and devide between them.
    Now Sabine has a chance to save someone else she counts as family and ashoka says to give it up if they fail getting the map. That is not gonna happen. Not again for sabine hence her choice.

    21:46 the blue flame is also similar to the blue Force Lightning that Force users can make.

    Sabine didn’t use the Force. Shin just flinched in anticipation, but then realized Sabine doesn’t have the Force, thus her line “You have no power.”
