Obi-Wan Kenobi, part three of six.

---

Obi-Wan and Leia search for passage off-world on an Imperial-controlled mining planet, but things grow more complicated when the Inquisitors, led by the evil Sith lord Darth Vader, enter the scene...

---

Tropes:

• Action Film, Quiet Drama Scene: The scene on the truck when Leia and Obi-Wan discuss how they were both adopted and ponder what their respective birth families were like. Placed between the rooftop shootout last episode, and Kenobi's shootout with the stormtrooper checkpoint right after this scene (not to mention, the lightsaber duel after that), it's just a slow-paced character-focused scene in which both characters address their core emotional issues. In the Original Trilogy, Leia barely got to remark on her birth family (compared to say, Luke's line in A New Hope saying he wished he'd known his father). It's also the first time after six films that Kenobi ever discusses his birth family at all. He doesn't seem to have thought much about it before, but discussing it with Leia, it seems like this is the first time in his life he's wondered about his biological brother.
• Affably Evil: Freck, an Imperial sympathizer, is genuine in his friendliness to stormtroopers and the outsiders. He's also completely willing to ignore the pain the Empire has put people through because it hasn't inconvenienced him, and is willing to sell out Obi-Wan and Leia at the first sign that they're not suitably loyal and obedient to the Empire.
• Ambiguous Situation: We don't know the full extent of the Grand Inquisitor's injuries, as Vader cuts Reva off before she can say that the Inquisitor has been injured or killed. He's still around four years later in canon, but all this has done is fuel fan speculation that he's a Force Zombie.
• Ambition Is Evil: Darth Vader is clearly aware the Third Sister aspires to the position of Grand Inquisitor.
  Darth Vader: I have been watching you, Third Sister. I know what it is you seek. Prove yourself and the position of Grand Inquisitor is yours. Fail me, and you will not live to regret it.
• Are We There Yet?: At the beginning, Leia asks Obi-Wan if there is a way to make the transport ship go faster.
• Bad Boss:
  • Vader vocally doesn't give a rat's ass about the Grand Inquisitor's injury, even offering his position to Reva if she can successfully lead him to Obi-Wan, but threatens to kill her should she fail. Considering Vader is a Sith Lord, it's more likely than not that this kind of squabbling among the Inquisitorius is encouraged rather than dissuaded.
  • A rare heroic example; Tala guns down her own stormtroopers to rescue Obi-Wan and Leia.
• Batman Gambit: In order to draw Obi-Wan out of hiding, Darth Vader begins massacring innocent civilians, even children. Sure enough, Obi-Wan cannot ignore it and comes out to face Vader.
• Big Damn Heroes: Tala and NED-B arrive just in the nick of time to get a wounded and beaten Obi-Wan away from Vader.
• Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Freck. He seems very friendly, but sells out Obi-Wan and Leia at the first opportunity. That said, the fact that he's an Imperial loyalist ("nothing wrong with a little order," he says) doesn't really take away from his pleasant demeanor; he's just as jovial with stormtroopers as he is with the people he betrays.
• Blatant Lies: Reva frames Obi-Wan for injuring the Grand Inquisitor instead of herself. It's implied the other Inquisitors know she's lying, but cannot act on it, while Vader dismisses the matter as an irrelevance, since the Sith practice Klingon Promotion.
• Body Horror: The episode opens with Vader putting on his armor, with lots of panning shots over his scarred flesh and missing limbs. On top of that, his suit painfully plugs into his flesh.
• Bonding over Missing Parents: While on the truck, Obi-Wan and Leia connect over never knowing their birth families and being Happily Adopted. On top of that, Obi is able to share the good things he remembers about her birth parents and admit it would be nice if he could honestly say he's Leia's father.
• Both Sides Have a Point: Obi-Wan and Leia occupy opposite ends of the cynicism/idealism spectrum — Leia is willing to seek out help from strangers, while Obi-Wan is hesitant, telling her that people are not all good. The episode proves them both right at different points; the seemingly friendly driver that Leia flags down tries to hand them over to the Empire, and an Imperial officer turns out to be a mole who saves their lives and would have picked them up earlier if not for Obi-Wan's paranoia.
• Call-Back:
  • In Part 1, the Grand Inquisitor mentions that Chronic Hero Syndrome is the nature of Jedi and they cannot stand by while innocent people suffer. While he managed to keep himself in check in Part 1^note though in his defense, nobody's life was being threatened, here, Obi-Wan proves the Grand Inquisitor's point when he willingly comes out of hiding when Vader starts killing innocent civilians indiscriminately.
  • While they fight, Obi-Wan and Vader lock blades, and we see Vader reach for a Force push. You'd expect Kenobi would do the same and they'd have a Beam-O-War like in Revenge of the Sith, but he doesn't even try and is pushed several feet back. It goes to show just how much of a shadow of his former self he's become.
• Call-Forward:
  • The start of Obi-Wan and Darth Vader's confrontation plays out much like their one on the Death Star. Ben enters the area where Vader is, and is greeted by the Sith Lord with his lightsaber on. Even his pose is identical.
  • When Obi-Wan attempts to flee, Vader says "You cannot run, Obi-Wan!" This is similar to when he says to his son "You cannot hide forever, Luke!" in Return of the Jedi.
  • During their brief duel, Vader says to Obi-Wan, "The years have made you weak." Vader famously says to Obi-Wan, "Your powers are weak, old man!" in A New Hope.
  • Late in the confrontation, Vader blitzes Obi-Wan out of nowhere (and Obi-Wan doesn't hear him coming as Vader has silenced his trademark breathing). This is reminiscent of how Vader will ambush Luke on Cloud City in the final phase of their duel during The Empire Strikes Back.
  • Here, Obi-Wan is shocked at what has become of his former apprentice, which informs what he will tell Luke years later, "He's more machine than man now."
  • Tala seemingly preparing to shoot Obi-Wan and Leia, but instead gunning down her troopers, revealing herself as The Mole and helping them escape is similar to what General Hux will do in The Rise of Skywalker.
  • Tala remarks that Leia will make a good fighter someday, with Obi-Wan's agreement.
• The Cameo:
  • Quinlan Vos is mentioned by name for the first time onscreen since The Clone Wars.
  • Actor Zach Braff cameos as Freck the truck driver, though he isn't visually recognizable due to his full alien mask.
• Cold-Blooded Torture: Clearly still burning with anger over their duel on Mustafar, Vader ignites a line of fuel and drags Obi-Wan through it, promising that this is just the start of Obi-Wan's suffering.
  Vader: Now you will suffer, Obi-Wan. Your pain has just begun.
• Continuity Nod: When confronting Obi-Wan, Darth Vader says to him what the Second Sister said to Cal Kestis, almost verbatim.
  Vader: I am what you made me.
• Convection, Schmonvection: While Obi-Wan is burned from being dragged through a pool of blazing fuel and screams in agony, his burns aren't nearly as severe as they would be in real life; it's basically just his right arm (the one he was being dragged on). Despite being so close to the flames, his beard and hair aren't so much as singed. Possibly justified by either Vader using the Force to stop Obi-Wan being too badly burned to ensure Obi-Wan doesn't die before Vader can make him suffer as long as possible (as covered under Why Don't You Just Shoot Him? below) or Obi-Wan using the Force to protect himself.^note At several different points in Legends continuity, Jedi have been able to briefly shield themselves against extreme heat, or at least minimize the damage. Anakin still got burned on Mustafar because he was next to an active lava flow — there are limits to it (and even then, in real life being that close to a lava flow for hours would probably have killed a normal person).
• Curb-Stomp Battle:
  • The stormtroopers at the checkpoint prove to be no match for Obi-Wan at close range; he guns them all down easily, even with one trooper holding Leia hostage.
  • Being out of practice for 10 years and in the midst of a Heroic BSoD over seeing Vader alive, Obi-Wan gets utterly manhandled (literally, through the Force) by the Dark Lord of the Sith himself.
• Curb Stomp Cushion: Though Vader wins fairly handily, Obi-Wan does manage to hold him off for a minute, though ten years out of practice and in shock and turmoil over seeing Anakin alive doesn't help.
• Destruction Equals Off-Switch: Obi-Wan shoots the control panel for the laser grid checkpoint when the switch fails to turn it off.
• Does This Remind You of Anything?: Freck is a local on Mapuzo who chooses to ignore the Empire's ongoing atrocities to his people in favor of enjoying the economic benefit it's given him. Sound familiar?
• Dramatic Irony: The Stormtroopers that Freck picks up are confident that they'll find the fugitive Jedi. They have no idea that they're sharing the ride with the Jedi in question.
• Dress-O-Matic: At the beginning of the episode, Darth Vader is disconnected from the life support equipment in his rejuvenation chamber, and machines encase him in his signature armor. The sequence ends with robotic arms lowering his iconic helmet on to Vader's head.
• Equal-Opportunity Evil: There are now women heard among the Empire's stormtroopers for the first time in live action, though women in the Imperial Corps were first seen in Solo, and women stormtroopers were seen in the First Order during the Sequel films. Additionally, despite Fantastic Racism seen elsewhere, the stormtroopers are quite friendly to the alien Freck, and he claims to have been treated well by the Empire.
• Even Evil Has Standards: Reva and the other Inquisitors look disturbed when Vader casually snaps a boy's neck. This is especially notable for Reva, who herself is the most brutal and ruthless of the Inquisitors.
• Evil Is Petty: After Reva goes over his head to contact Vader, the Fifth Brother does the same thing once Obi-Wan's location is discovered.
• Exact Words: Leia is surprisingly correct. Freck is friendly. She really should get some training in the Force, though.
• Fantastic Racism: A surprise aversion. The Empire has almost always been shown to be xenophobic, but in this episode the stormtroopers that Freck picks up and the ones at the checkpoint are very friendly to him.
• Faux Affably Evil: Reva greets Leia by gently telling her not to be afraid and "kindly" offers to take her the rest of the way. Then Leia notices the corpse of the pilot she was supposed to meet.
• Foreshadowing: Not long after arriving on the mining planet, Obi-Wan sees a vision of a hooded Anakin in the distance. Sure enough, when his location is confirmed, Darth Vader himself is leading the hunt.
• Freeze-Frame Bonus: Some of the details in the Path's safehouse include names carved into the walls in Aurebesh lettering, presumably of people who have previously stayed there. These include names such as Djinn Altis, a Mythology Gag to The Callista Trilogy (Master Altis ran the Chu'unthor, the starship-based Jedi academy where Callista Ming trained) and Rahm Kota.
• Frame-Up: To cover up her actions last episode, Reva has formally framed Obi-Wan for her attack (and as far as she knows, presumed murder) on the Grand Inquisitor. Whether anyone actually believes her is unclear; Vader doesn't care about the Grand Inquisitor's fate, and the Fifth Brother only expresses anger that Reva is trying to take over his position as the Inquisitors' interim leader.
• Gave Up Too Soon: Obi-Wan immediately assumes the worst when their contact isn't at the rendezvous, and the pair seek out alternate transportation. Had he been a little more patient, his contact would have shown up and taken them to the starport without alerting the Empire to their presence.
• Half the Man He Used to Be: The fate of an unfortunate stormtrooper at a laser grid checkpoint, after Obi-Wan shoots him and causes him to fall onto the laser.
• Hope Spot: When it seems that Leia is about to meet Tala's pilot associate to get her off-world, the camera slowly pans over to reveal Reva is already at the rendezvous with the dead pilot at her feet.
• Implied Death Threat: The Fifth Brother implies he will get even with Reva for usurping his authority in the Grand Inquisitor's absence by going directly to Darth Vader.
  Fifth Brother: I will get what I deserve, Third Sister... and so will you!
• Improperly Paranoid: Obi-Wan's experiences and fear of the Empire may have helped him avoid them on Tatooine, but it also makes him immediately assume the worst in people. It bites him in the ass in this instance, when he instantly jumps to the conclusion that he and Leia were lied to when their contact isn't where they said they would be, and they leave before said contact actually arrives.
• Internal Reveal: Leia deduces that Obi-Wan knew her birth mother, which he confirms, albeit without giving Padmé's name or too many details.
• I Surrender, Suckers: When a stormtrooper holds Leia hostage, Obi-Wan pretends to lay down his blaster before offhandedly shooting him.
• Jump Scare: There is a scene of Obi-Wan making his way through a darkened quarry while looking everywhere, only to turn around and barely block Vader's lightsaber, which comes out of nowhere with a Scare Chord playing in the background.
• Kick the Dog: Vader senselessly murders three innocent bystanders just to draw out Obi-Wan.
• Killed Offscreen: Tala's pilot is killed by Reva before Leia reaches the end of the tunnel.
• Kill It with Fire: This is the fate that Vader has in mind for Obi-Wan, subjecting him to being burned alive just as Vader was back on Mustafar.
• Kilroy Was Here:
  • The symbol of the Jedi Order is carved into the wall of the hideout.
  • The writing indicates that Quinlan Vos was helped by the Path and continues to help out.
  • Freeze-Frame Bonus of Aurebesh graffiti mentions Valin Halcyon and Roganda Ismaren.
• Laser-Guided Karma:
  • A non-fatal example. After Freck sells out Obi-Wan and Leia to the Empire, he's promptly pistol-whipped by Obi-Wan for his troubles after the latter dispatches the stormtroopers at the laser grid checkpoint.
  • After mocking Reva's desire to get what she believes she is owed, the Fifth Brother gets a taste of it himself when Reva usurps command, despite believing he is next in line.
  • A villainous example; Obi-Wan left Vader to burn on Mustafar, so Vader returns the favor, torturing Obi-Wan by dragging him through flames.
• Leave Him to Me!: Vader orders the Inquisitors to search the town and not engage Obi-Wan, because he wants Obi-Wan to himself.
• Mercy Kill: Discussed. It's all but stated that a great deal of Anakin/Vader's anger towards Obi-Wan is due to the latter abandoning him on Mustafar to die a slow agonizing death from injury and exposure instead of killing him once he was should-have-been-mortally maimed.
• The Mole: Tala, a disillusioned Imperial officer, now uses her position to aid the Path in smuggling Force-sensitives to safety.
• Mook Promotion: Both Reva and the Fifth Brother are vying for the position of leader in the Grand Inquisitor's absence. Fifth claims he is next in line, but the Third Sister not only outranks him, she already went straight to Vader for orders.
• Mundane Utility: Vader uses his lightsaber to light a fuel spill before throwing Obi-Wan into the flames.
• My Significance Sense Is Tingling:
  • Obi-Wan visibly staggers and has to pull himself together when he senses Vader and the Inquisitors coming into the camp.
  • Soon after, Vader momentarily pauses as he walks through the village and then abruptly commences killing random bystanders, sensing Obi-Wan is very nearby and likely watching.
• Mythology Gag:
  • The Path's secret hideout is on Jabiim, which in the old Legends canon was a major Separatist holdout where many young Padawans were killed during the Clone Wars and was one of the Republic's most devastating losses in the entire war, but has a much smaller significance in the modern Disney canon.
  • Obi-Wan mentions having a brother. In the old Return of the Jedi novelization, it was mentioned Owen Lars was his brother, and Legends would establish he had visions of him and initially assumed he was his brother.
  • Vader's reproach to Obi-Wan is curiously similar to the resentful way the Second Sister describes her former Jedi Master in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order.
    Darth Vader / Anakin Skywalker: I am what you made me!
    Second Sister / Trilla Suduri: I am what Cere made me.
• Neck Snap: When Vader grabs a random citizen to murder, the man's son tries to intervene, only for Vader to toss him aside and casually snap his neck with the Force.
• Never My Fault: As is typical for Anakin/Vader. When Obi-Wan asks what Vader has become, Vader replies that he is what Obi-Wan made him; while Obi-Wan blames himself as well, Vader's descent into the dark side and his crippling injuries were the result of his joining Palpatine, his obsession with saving Padmé and his own reckless pride.
• Nice Guy: Freck. Deconstructed because he is friendly with everyone, including the Empire's stormtroopers. He regularly gives the troopers rides when their transport runs late, and so he picks up a squad when Obi-Wan needs it the least.
  Leia: He seems friendly!
• Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: When they reach the rendezvous and their contact is absent, Obi-Wan assumes they've been betrayed, leading Leia to flag down a transport hovercraft as an alternate means to reach the spaceport. Had Obi-Wan waited, Tala would have arrived, picked them up, and likely sent them offworld with no fuss. As it stands, Obi-Wan instead alerts the Inquisitors when he's scanned at a checkpoint, gets manhandled by Vader, and the episode ends with Reva confronting Leia. It also outs Tala as a rebel informant and costs the Path her station on the Underground Railroad.
• O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Vader prefers Pragmatic Villainy and straightforward murder. When dealing with Obi-Wan, he instead toys with him and tortures him. It's Personal; Vader still blames Obi-Wan for turning Padme against him and murdering her and for crippling him and leaving him to die on Mustafar. As such, he wants to cause him as much pain and suffering as he possibly can.
• Offscreen Teleportation: Reva's search for Leia leads her to the hidden tunnel, but Leia and Tala have a head start of at least five to ten minutes. Nevertheless, Reva manages to beat Leia to the starport and kill the pilot she was supposed to meet, seemingly having traveled there directly above ground.
• Oh, Crap!:
  • Obi-Wan barely manages to suppress his fear when Freck picks up a few Stormtroopers as well. It's all he can do to keep from blowing his cover.
  • Obi-Wan is visibly terrified just from sensing Vader's arrival. Actually confronting him just makes it worse. He even silently speaks to Qui-Gon in utter fear, hoping for help.
  • The Inquisitors are cowed when Vader leads the hunt in town and when he begins nonchalantly murdering civilians, well aware they could be next if they fail.
  • Leia turns and runs when she realizes that Reva murdered the pilot who was supposed to get her offworld.
• Only Sane Woman: The Fourth Sister is the only Inquisitor who isn't wasting any time squabbling over leadership. While Reva and the Fifth Brother argue over who gets to get credit for tracking Obi-Wan to Mapuzo, the Fourth Sister issues orders that Mapuzo's Imperial garrison are to lock down the spaceports and ensure no ships get off world.
• Pet the Dog: The stormtroopers that Freck picks up take a moment to thank him for the ride.
• Pistol-Whipping: Obi-Wan knocks Freck unconscious by hitting him over the back of the head with his blaster.
• Please Wake Up: Obi-Wan begins the episode begging Qui-Gon to speak to him. Unlike the typical portrayal, Qui-Gon can answer, but Obi-Wan's emotional turmoil prevents their connection.
• Power Floats: Blink and you'll miss it, but as Vader's mechanical limbs are being attached and his armor assembled around him, there's nothing holding him up. This isn't a production error; Vader's holding himself aloft with the Force.
• Robo Cam: We get a view through the imperial probe droid's sensor as it is scanning a suspicious hooded man... up to the point that Obi-Wan is about to shoot it.
• Screw This, I'm Out of Here!: When he first confronts Vader, Obi-Wan elects to run away.
• Sean Connery Is About to Shoot You: Since we're viewing the scene through Robo Cam, when Obi-Wan decides to shoot the imperial probe droid he fires straight at the camera.
• Sherlock Scan: Reva takes a careful look through the droid workshop and correctly deduces the hidden entrance, followed by the location of the secret escape tunnel.
• Shoot the Hostage Taker: The last surviving stormtrooper at the checkpoint holds Leia in front of him at gunpoint. Obi-Wan moves to put his blaster down, then fires from that position, easily aiming past Leia to hit the trooper.
• Small Name, Big Ego: The Fifth Brother claims he is next in line to take charge of the Inquisitors with their leader incapacitated, but Reva is the Third Sister, whom the Grand Inquisitor even explicitly stated earned her rank through her abilities and power. On a purely technical level, without the Second Sister^*a position fulfilled by Trilla Suduri at the time of Fallen Order, but unknown now following her death as part of the equation, Reva is next in line to be leader, but that doesn't stop Fifth from fuming over it.
• Spotting the Thread: Though he doesn't follow up, Freck notices that Leia's hastily-thought-up cover story is strange, so he assumes there's something hinky and hands them over to the Stormtroopers at the checkpoint. The Stormtroopers also spot and aggressively follow up on Obi-Wan's flub, calling Leia by her name instead of her cover ID as "Luma".
• Surprisingly Realistic Outcome:
  • Vader and Obi-Wan's first post-Mustafar rematch. Even operating with a handicap (his abilities hampered by his injuries and the armor), Vader has kept in shape (relatively speaking) and his head is very much in the game. Obi-Wan, by contrast, is a decade out of practice and dealing with realizing Anakin survived Mustafar. It's no contest, and Vader effortlessly kicks Obi-Wan's ass.
  • When Tala makes a wall of fire to cover NED-B as he recovers Obi-Wan, the stormtroopers accompanying Vader start firing. Rebels shows that stormtrooper helmets offer poor visibility already, and with a massive fire obscuring their vision on top of that, their shots don't come remotely close to the target. One trooper even points out that he can't see anything.
• Teeth-Clenched Teamwork: The Fifth Brother and the Fourth Sister are furious at Reva giving them orders. The former is also outraged about Reva going over his head directly to Darth Vader, since he claims he should technically take command with the Grand Inquisitor incapacitated.
  Fifth Brother: You are not in charge here. [seizes Reva with the Force] That seat is mine, not yours. I am the next in line.
• Underground Railroad: Haja's contact Tala turns out to be part of an organisation that helps surviving Jedi and Force-sensitive individuals evade being caught by the Empire. Their operations on Mapuzo involve a hidden saferoom that connects to a tunnel leading to a spaceport.
• Use Their Own Weapon Against Them: While not an actual weapon, Vader spills out a canister of the minerals being mined from Mapuzo (revealed to be flammable) so he can ignite them and drag Obi-Wan through the hot coals to make him suffer the same way Anakin did when Obi-Wan let him burn on Mustafar. He extinguishes them after torturing Obi-Wan for a bit so he can have Obi-Wan arrested and tortured more later, but Tala exploits the situation Vader has set up by shooting another canister nearby, which reignites the spilled minerals and creates an impenetrable wall of flames so NED-B can rescue Obi-Wan without the stormtroopers interfering. Once more, Vader/Anakin's flair for the dramatic seems to have backfired on him, as it will in a number of his later battles.
• Villain Has a Point: While Darth Vader is in full Never My Fault mode and refuses to accept his own responsibility in how he turned out, he isn't wrong when he points out to Obi-Wan that he wouldn't be in his current state had Obi-Wan actually finished him off on Mustafar instead of just leaving him engulfed by flames and assuming that would kill him.
• Visual Pun: Freck resembles a humanoid rat, and tries to rat out Obi-Wan and Leia. Or, if you prefer, the Imperial Mole is also a humanoid mole.
• Wham Line:
  • For the first time ever (in canon), Obi-Wan mentions his birth family. As previously established, he explains that Force-sensitive children are taken from their parents when they are basically toddlers, so he really doesn't have many memories of them. Not even "glimpses" but just a few "flashes" of memory: his mother's shawl, his father's hands, etc. But all this is expected. The wham line is that he goes on to say he half-remembers a baby, so he thinks he has a younger brother whom he never knew, somewhere out there in the galaxy.
  • "Quinlan was here!" — Obi-Wan reading the messages scratched into the walls of a safehouse for the underground railroad of Jedi survivors and Force-sensitive children. With one line, it's established that recurring character Quinlan Vos survived Order 66, and has been actively helping other survivors.^note Quinlan was a recurring character in the Clone Wars cartoon, though there's a one-line mention of him in Revenge of the Sith when Obi-wan remarks, "Saleucami has fallen, and Master Vos moved his troops to Boz Pity."
• What You Are in the Dark: Faced with remaining hidden while Vader murders innocent people or revealing himself and suffering the Sith Lord's wrath, Obi-Wan chooses to let Vader find him.
• Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?: Vader toying with Obi-Wan rather than just killing him outright. It's completely in character, of course, as Vader very much intends to collect a decade's worth of pain and suffering from his old Master for what he did on Mustafar. Vader needs and wants Obi-Wan to suffer before even considering allowing him to embrace death's sweet release.
• Worf Had the Flu: Obi-Wan may have defeated his former apprentice a decade ago, but he's now a decade out of practice as well as mentally shaken at seeing Vader alive and more machine than man. He gets his ass thoroughly whupped.
• Would Hurt a Child:
  • A stormtrooper holds Leia at gunpoint to try and force Obi-Wan to stand down.
  • The Empire's treatment of Force-sensitive children is alluded to by Tala.
  • Darth Vader demonstrates this when he callously murders a child in cold blood, immediately after dispatching the boy's father. He is still, after all, the youngling-murderer of Order 66.
• Would Not Shoot a Civilian: Even though Freck just sold them out to the stormtrooper checkpoint, Obi-Wan simply knocks him out by pistol-whipping him when he could just as easily have shot him dead. Killing an unarmed opponent who isn't even trying to fight you would still be against the Jedi Code, even if he is a rat.
• Wrong-Name Outburst: Inverted — Leia is posing as Obi-Wan's daughter Luma, but he accidentally calls her by her real name in front of several Stormtroopers. He passes it off as having called her by her deceased mother's name.
• You Are Not Alone: Not in so many words, but the spirit of the trope is clear in Obi-Wan's conversation with Tala, who confirms that not only are there still good people resisting the Empire, but even surviving Jedi like Quinlan Vos helping to smuggle Force-sensitive children out of Imperial reach.
