Sabine Wren has to fake an attack on a certain Imperial delegate by the name of Leia.
Tropes:
- Ambiguous Time Period: The Exposition Dump (as detailed below) makes it vague as to whether or not the events of "A Princess on Lothal" have already happened (considering in that episode, neither of them seem to properly introduce themselves to each other). The fact that Sabine's on Garel, which the rebels abandoned the episode before "A Princess on Lothal", may indicate that this was before that episode, though there's nothing against the possibility that Sabine returned after the evacuation.
- Continuity Nod:
- The events of the short take place on Garel, just like the short released before this, "The Stranger".
- Sabine's artistic shtick is in full play — she gets the stormtroopers with a paint bomb, just like in the Rebels promotional short, "Art Attack".
- This won't be the only time an important data file in Leia's hands has to be sent off.
- Sabine's theme plays as Sabine and Leia part ways.
- Exposition Dump: Sabine introducing herself, and Leia reiterating why she can't be seen openly helping Sabine, is for the sake of audience members who haven't watched Rebels and are just here for Leia.
- Killer Robot: IG-88 in a rare animated appearance.
- Summon Bigger Fish: Leia manages to con the stormtroopers into attacking IG-88 instead of the actual culprit, Sabine Wren.
