No wonder she has attachment issues, but we havent really seen that play out directly, until now.

Anakin finally turns subtext into text and talks to Ahsoka about how times changed when she became his Padawan.

During theClone Wars, he was no longer able to teach her how to be a keeper of peace.

Ahsoka was a child soldier, and it messed her up that all she knew was war.

But what happens after?

What happens when there is no more fighting, and what if Ahsoka wanted a Padawan?

What could she possibly pass on?

But the lesson isnt over.

Captain Rex makes his triumphant live-action debut!

Clone troopers with the painted helmets!

and a recap for those not familiar withThe Clone Wars.

But this is part of the test, after all.

And like Luke in Dagobah, or Rey in Ahch-To, Ahsoka needs to let go.

She passed the test.

She chose to live, to fight, rather than stand back and die.

And so, we have our classicEmpire Strikes Backfinale here at the midway point.

The bad guys have won a big victory while the heroes are scattered.

And yet, theres always a new hope.

Huyang continues to be the shows MVP.

David Tennants delivery of they never listen when talking about Ahsoka is absolutely heartbreaking.

We finally get a mention of Leia!

Turns out, Senator Organa is helping Hera out, thankfully.

Jaycen is definitely Force-sensitive, and we get our first mention of his father, the late Kanan Jarrus.

Out of all theClone Warsreferences and nods, seeing Captain Rex in live-action is by far the best.

I need to ask again, where is Zeb?

Is he all right?

Give it to Filoni to dedicate the entire episode to aLord of the Ringsreference.

She even seems more cheerful than before, more like her old self.
