I have a problem, generally, with how Kenobi is routinely made to look like in idiot. Up until this series, Kenobi was highly competent, thoughtful, intelligent, stoic, level-headed, steadfast, and reliable. He retains some of this in the new series, but his character is wildly inconsistent from scene to scene. My problem with the scene you are referring to, is that neither Obi-Wan nor Leia are being true to their actual characters. Leia is often presented as an adult in a child’s body, and Kenobi is often depicted as a clueless, bumbling idiot. I don’t remember the details of this scene that well, but I remember thinking it was pretty cringe for that reason.
Agreed! This seems to be the Disney method of writing, which can be seen in their other series too.
In “The Book Of Boba Fett”, we get ‘dumb Boba / smart Fennec’, in this series, Disney have gone too far in making Obi-Wan look lost, weak and pathetic. Instead of showing a man who has suffered trauma, with the associated mental and emotional health issues that go along with that, Disney have pushed it a bit too far – Obi-Wan in this series is nothing like what we have seen in the original films I-VI.
