Episode Summary & Review
Summary
The rebels contact freedom fighter Cham Syndulla, who needs help to fight off the Imperial bombing attack on his planet. While coordinating a plan to overtake and steal the carrier that houses these Imperial bombers, the rebels discover that Cham may have a plan of his own.
Our Take
A solid mid-season entry that finally gives Hera some family backstory, even if Cham’s stubbornness gets telegraphed early. The action on the carrier moves well and their father-daughter friction feels earned rather than forced. It’s more setup than payoff, but the emotional beats land. Worth your time if you’ve been waiting to learn what makes Hera tick.
