Star wars rebels season 3 episode 14 warhead

ThrawnВ enters having completed his physical combat training with two Imperial sentry droids, he explainsВ to them the reason for the meeting is that he believes there is a spy leaking information to the Rebels. As Kallus and Lyste enter the Grand AdmiralвЂ™s office they are soon greeted by Wullf Yularen who as it turns out was a mentor of Kallus when he was training to become an ISB Agent.

However the plan takes a drastic shift when ThrawnвЂ™s fleet arrives and requests Kallus and Lyste report to his office and that the prisoner (aka Ezra) should be transferred as well. To KallusвЂ™ surprise, Ezra Bridger вЂ“ under the guise of a bounty hunter вЂ“ was found abroad the ship along with AP-5 and a disguised Chopper posing as the вЂњinnocentвЂќ hostages.В After insisting on interrogating the prisonerВ alone, Ezra explains that he is there to get Kallus out since the Empire has been monitoringВ his Fulcrum transmissions. This episode appropriately opens from the point-of-view of Agent Kallus as he wakes to sound of siren blaring, alerting all on the lightВ cruiser to report to their stations.В When he reaches the bridge, heВ learns through Lieutenant Lyste that they in the process of intercepting a stolen shuttle from LothalвЂ™s space port. Dave FiloniвЂ™s nods to the Original Trilogy add a nice touch to Rebels, showing his appreciation for those who paved the way for him.Grand Admiral Thrawn is on the hunt for Fulcrum and Agent Kallus is in the hot seat.

The EXD-9 droid was based on old Ralph Mcquarrie artwork for the original trilogy, which was drawnВ as the potential design for C-3PO, but never used. His leadership and self-sacrifice displayed in this episode added much-needed growth for the character. This moment also displayed the leadership skills within Zeb, who is normally portrayed as the muscle of the group. The banter and sassiness of both AP-5 and Chopper are quite amusing, giving Rebels a little bit of what we get in the Star Wars films with R2-D2 and C-3P0. So when there is a change of pace and we are given a fun episode featuring droids, itвЂ™s a welcomed treat.

Why ItвЂ™s Memorable:В The standard focus of Rebels tends to showcase the Jedi and Mandalorian story arcs more so than not. Grand Admiral Thrawn is able to narrow down the location of Phoenix Squadron with his precise calculations, and the apparent victory ends up being a loss for these trio of rebels. The trio are able to fool the droid into retreating back to the Imperial base, destroying a Super Star destroyer in the process. However they are unable to wipe the droids memory and the self-destruct mode begins. With the help of AP-5 and Chopper, as well as a warning from the mysterious Fulcrum, they are able to best the droid. Zeb and the droid, EXD-9, get into a physical altercation when the droidвЂ™s attack mode is activated. The visiting protocol droid ends up being an assassinВ modeled droid who was sent by the Empire to track down the many hidden rebel bases across the galaxy. With the rest of Phoenix Squadron and the Ghost crew off base for missions, the two droids( Chopper and AP-5), as well as Zeb, are tasked with holding down the fort. The Moment:В A mysterious pod lands on the Phoenix SquadronвЂ™s rebel base of Atollon, which contains what appears to be a protocol droid.
