History Recap / StarWarsRebelsS3E17DoubleAgentDroid

* DidntThinkThisThrough: The crew should have known ISB is more thorough with its security. As such, the whole mission really would have gone better if they had just sent AP-5 and Wedge. AP-5 was the only droid who could pass through the scanner likely because he's still registered as an Imperial droid. Since Chopper isn't registered, the Imperials had to check on him since he set off the alarm.

** Chopper takes up his Imperial disguise once again. It backfires this time, as the Empire has set up scanners which can detect unauthorized droids, and Chopper's outdated design makes it easy for him to identify Chopper as Hera's droid. AP-5 is the only one who can still pass for an Imperial Droid, because he was one.

** Wedge dresses as an Imperial pilot. He doesn't have to leave the ship, so it doesn't really need to pass inspection.

* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Chopper.

* DressingAsTheEnemy: Once again, Chopper. This becomes problematic because Chopper with that same paintjob has been seen too many times causing trouble, and sticks out as it becomes more obvious that he resembles a model that is out of date. Wedge also disguises himself as an Imperial TIE pilot.

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Chopper is much quieter, less snarky, and more poised after he gets brainwashed, just like a majority of astromechs and droids, especially Imperial droids. The other crew members, including ''Hera'', don't notice at first, but AP-5 catches on quickly.
* PreExplosionGlow: Chopper.
* SpaceWhale: Space betta fish, actually, small, pink creatures with six eyes that can survive in the vacuum of space. AP-5 finds a school of them.
* ThrownOutTheAirlock: The hatch in the bay of the ''Ghost'' is still open midflight, causing Ezra, Zeb, and Wedge to almost get sucked out.

* DressingAsTheEnemy: Once again, Chopper. This becomes problematic because Chopper with the same paintjob has been seen too many times causing trouble, and is recognized. Wedge also disguises himself as an Imperial TIE pilot.

* ContinuityNod: The surveillance images pulled showing Chopper undercover are from all the other times he went undercover, including "Rebel Resolve" (upper left corner) and "An Inside Man".

* CassandraTruth: Wedge tells the crew that AP-5 and Chopper were goofing around as spies, which causes them to dismiss [[NoRespectGuy AP-5]]'s concerns about [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness Chopper]], as they're assuming AP is just going to say something snarky and Chopper is just being a gadfly again.

->'''Wedge Antilles:''' AP-5 and Chop were playing some spy game the whole trip...\\

Chopper and AP-5 team up to infiltrate an Imperial station to steal needed codes, but an Imperial specialist turns the droids against the crew to cause chaos.

* NotHelpingYourCase: In a case of SkewedPriorities, upon getting back to the ''Ghost'', rather than immediately urge them that something is wrong with Chopper, AP-5 vaguely says that he "saved the codes from [[FullNameUltimatum C1-10P]]" [[SarcasmMode like he's some hero that won a game]] rather than [[SincereMode he might have literally rescued the codes from an unwell Chopper]]. Wedge clarifies that it must be a part of the duo's antics continuing off from the mission, leading to everyone shrugging off AP's concerns that he follows up with and believing he and Chop just don't know when to knock off their jokes.

'''AP-5:''' "It was not a game, this is a serious matter! I have grave concerns about Chopper--"

* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Chopper and AP-5.

* TheBusCameBack: Wedge returns for the first time after his TheCameo in [[Recap/StarWarsRebelsS3E12Warhead "Warhead"]] and his first major role in his debut episode, [[Recap/StarWarsRebelsS3E02TheAntillesExtraction "The Antilles Extraction"]].

* CallForward:
** Just as Tseebo did, the Imperial specialist has cybernetic implants on his head like [[Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack Lobot]].
* DressingAsTheEnemy: Once again, Chopper. This becomes problematic because Chopper with the same paint-job has been seen too many times causing trouble to be recognizable. Wedge also disguises himself as an Imperial TIE pilot.

* ForegoneConclusion: We see Chopper make a cameo in the background of ''Film/RogueOne'', still on the side of the Rebels.
