The Third Sister doesn’t get a ton of respect from the other Inquisitors. This serious-looking injury could explain how he gets his butt kicked by Kanan just a few years later, despite his ruthless and terrifying reputation. After all, we see him – but not Reva – in Rebels. We have a lot of questions about Reva, but we’re pretty sure that the Grand Inquisitor is going to be okay-ish. Reva runs the Grand Inquisitor through to get him out of her way while chasing Kenobi and Leia. A “doesn’t this break the timeline?” or “I know he’s okay, we know how he dies and it isn’t here,” moment. This may be the opposite of an Easter Egg. Elan Sel’Sabagno here tried to get Obi-Wan hooked on death sticks way back in the prequel error and was also unsuccessful. But this is not the first time somebody in a sleazy location has tried to sell him drugs. In what turns out to be a major plot point, a pink-haired woman offers Kenobi an assortment of hard drugs and spice to get him through his trip to Daiyu. “I’m Elan Sel’Sabagno and I love death sticks.”
#OBI JUAN KENOBI SERIES#
There’s a decent chance that Obi-Wan Kenobi worked with this particular clone trooper ten years earlier, even if he’s not one of the clones we spent time with in the series or learned the name of. It’s been ten years for Obi-Wan, but genetically, it’s been closer to twenty for this guy.įinally, I’m about ninety percent sure that’s the armor of a 501st trooper. That’s because clones were purposefully engineered to age about twice as fast as humans. Additionally, while it’s been about ten years since the Clone Wars ended, this trooper looks a fair bit older than that and Kenobi alike. Of course, the Morrison cameo is always welcome, but there’s a moment of hesitation on Kenobi’s part.įor starters, he is also a veteran of the same war and Obi-Wan worked closely with many Clone Troopers. And this Easter Egg has a few layers to peel away at. While Ben is trying to find Leia he encounters a homeless Clone Wars vet played by Temuera Morrison.
It’s nice to get a break from Tatooine, and Daiyu looks like a rich and interesting locale for exploring, but it’s also obviously not a kind place. It’s a bit of a twist in the show that we’ll come back to in a bit, and also a very fun cameo.Įpisode two takes us to Daiyu, a Bladerunner-esque-inspired planet that we simultaneously want to spend much more and much less time on. While we’re there there’s a party that Leia Organa desperately wants to get away from, resulting in her kidnap by none other than Flea of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. The gorgeous planet reminds me of Naboo, which is fitting considering Leia’s mother, and it’s a very neat place to get a sense of. Well, we saw a lot of it mid-explosion, but you know what I mean. Or Kenobi keeps trying.Ī good portion of episode one takes place on Alderaan, a planet we’ve been able to see little of. I guess it’s implied that Owen lets him keep it and either passes it off as a gift from himself or invents space Santa. But eagle-eyed fans may recognize the toy as the model T-16 Skyhopper Luke is seen playing with briefly in A New Hope. Of course, Uncle Owen isn’t too please and returns the toy in a scene that’s reminiscent of a similar interaction in the comics. But we get a hint when Ben spends his hard-earned credits on a toy that he quietly leaves for Luke in the middle of the night like some sort of Jedi Santa. It’s hard to imagine how much he cares for this child and wants to be in his life. He works in space-fish processing, buys stolen parts of his own equipment back from Jawas, lives in a cave, and seemingly spends most of his leisure time watching Luke Skywalker grow up on the Lars moisture farm from afar. Obi-Wan Ben Kenobi has had a weird and sort of sad life for the last ten years since Order 66. Sometimes I like to think about how at the same moment Leia lying about the Death Star plans directly to Darth Vader’s face, Luke is making “vroom” sounds with his plastic spaceship.
