Man, I was getting worried as I got the return of the Martez sisters spoiled for me, but fortunately they were much better executed in this episode than their overlong TCW arc. They seemed way more competent this time, and yeah I wouldn’t mind if they return or become recurring characters.

Overall I really liked this episode, more than the previous two or three since it finally pushes the plot a bit forward. I was very happy to see Corellia. The only aspect I’m sorely missing is Crosshair and the developments at Kamino.

My first guess for the sisters’ mysterious employer was Ahsoka because of the cloak, until I remembered about the pronoun thing. I considered other candidates like Bail Organa or Saw Gerrera, but the fact they’ve got R7 makes me confident its Rex, setting up his future appearance in the show as we’ve seen in the trailer.

Cid was fun the few seconds she was onscreen. I like her role as the quest giver 😄

The way they’re developing Omega has been really good. I really liked how this time the Batch trust her enough to let her actively help on their mission rather than confining her to the ship. The bow training moments were endearing and maybe felt as a way of intentionally downplaying any Mary Sue aspects some people may have issues with (though I haven’t found Omega to be a MS at all) and the pay-off was good if a bit rushed.

And I was really clamoring aloud for Wrecker to get better 😢
