Obi-Wan Kenobi Episode 4 Breakdown...

kenobi wakes up in a hazy daze.
somehow Vader actually let Kenobi go and the fire stopped him. I hope this is addressed in the next 2 episodes because if it’s not, it won’t make any sense.
As he’s put in the bacta tank which accelerates his healing of burn wounds from Vader’s carnage, he seems to be connecting with Vader at the same moment in the bacta tank. If Vader is not on the field, he’s always in his bacta tank. His immense physical pain is something that is only somewhat subsided when he’s in his bacta. This is why his skin looks a bit more healed by the time return of the jedi rolls around, compared to now.
Vader and Kenobi seem to be sensing one another and it seems they each have their emotions linked or triggered by thoughts of the other. I think this would have been a great time to see Vader remember fighting Obi-Wan, maybe a new angle of him reaching out for Kenobi on Mustafar, just as Obi-Wan is seeing what Vader just did to him.
They get out of the bacta, and speak to Roken about where Leia is. Roken talks about how the inquisitors found his wife for being force sensitive or a jedi and took her. Roken figures out she’s at the inquisitor’s stronghold, where is in the middle of the ocean on the Nur moon in the Mustafar system. They recognize this is Vader’s system, which I guess is the first time Kenobi hears of it, and I would have liked to see a reaction from him about Mustafar. They decide to head over to the Inquitor’s HQ and save Leia.
Reva interrogtaes Leia, telling her she knows of a safe house of Jedi in two star systems. She suspects Leia of knowing after telling her Obi-Wan died from Vader’s hand. I’m not sure why she’d suspect Leia of knowing anything, as she’s just the senator’s daughter.

game of thrones lady tries her imperial commanding officer uniform and gets into the computers to open the big door allowing Kenobi to enter in a similar fashion as we did in jedi fallen order.

Kenobi takes out some of the stormtroopers and moves in.
Reva mind probes Leia and it’s innefective. I loved this. I thought it was awesome that she resisted Reva without even trying or knowing the force. It just goes to show how powerful the Skywalker bloodline is, and how powerful luke and leia are even at this early age.

Reva talks again about how the Jedi took something from her. I am starting to believe she only wants to get up in the ranks of inquisitor because she wants to learn more about a lost brother she has.

We get some Jedi Academy vibes as Kenobi uses the force to distract two troopers with a noise so he can get away.

As Kenobi makes his way through imperial restricted section he walks past Jedi from the prequels frozen in what looks like stasis. The first of which is Terra Sinube, the old jedi who helped Ahsoka find her lightsabers.

Some of the Jedi I can’t distinguish, one looks like it could be a longer haired Cere Junda, and the last is a Jedi Youngling, still with his training helmet on. So i think palpatine either has them as trophies or he’s going to use them for experiments on mount tantiss, or perhaps he already has and he’s just going to harvest their blood in the hopes that he has a suitable host for himself, for Grogu, or for Snoke.

The next scene is awesome as we get a reenactment of the Starkiller scene from force unleashed where he quickly takes out the stormtroopers in the darkness, and the only thing visible is his saber when it’s on. I loved the reference, and thought it’s great. As he runs out with Leia a seeker droid spots him, and sounds the alarm. Kenobi uses his lightsaber finally and redirects blaster bolts bak at his enemies. Even getting him doing his old Kenobi pose, which was nice to see. It seems he’s slowing remembering all his skills and techniques. We see a purge trooper from jedi fallen order, these are superior troopers with one goal only, to take out Jedi. They were like the inquisitor version of death troopers somewhat.

Kenobi gets away to safety, and we see Vader angrily force choke the 3rd sister Reva as the other inquisitors watch on in terror. He is about to end her when she says she let them go. Vader releases her and she reveals she put a tracker on them. The tracker is Lola, Leia’s droid. He says he may have underestimated her which I thought was out of character as Vader seems to be constantly cutting her a lot of slack.

He moves up to her and she confirms where he goes the tracker will follow. Vader is pleased.

We end the episode on Kenobi and the crew relaxing on the ship as it sails through space, with Lola’s light turning on, meaning the tacker is active.
