Awesome episode, super fun and intense. I was worried there for a while. I'm glad Kanan and Rex are finally getting along. And + for that Cody mention.

 

This gets a 9/10 from me.

 

This episode gets an 11/10 for me!

this episode felt like it had stakes this time!

loved the cody reference

That explosion

Rex with his jokes.

This was the best of season 2.

 

Wow! That was good! I really thought they'd let Rex be tortured (not on screen of course, but implied) until the Interdictor imploded on itself (because, well, how else would you destroy a cruiser like that )! Great dynamic between Kanan and Rex, an interesting story line. I liked it a lot! Can't wait until next episode (I hope they don't spend too much on that baby sitting bullcrap).

 

10/10, tied with Wings of the Master for my favorite episode.

 

10/10 from me too. This was incredible and was one of the best episodes I've seen in Rebels.

 

10/10 for me aswell! Probably my favourite episode of Rebels so far along with The Lost Commanders & Relics Of The Old Republic. Given that Rex is one of my top favourite characters ever I was on the edge of me seat hoping the worse wasn't going to happen to him. Loved how Kanan is starting to finally except friendship from Rex & Ezra showed awesome signs in his Jedi training from Kanan.

But, this was the highlight of the episode. Made me tear up a tad! A Clone Trooper & a Jedi, 'Just like old times'

 

11/10 my favorite episode of the season barely one of my favorites of the series
SO NOSTALGIC

 

I know it's just a plot device, but it's a pity they didn't resolve what happened to the first ship that went missing (which caused Sato and Ezra to come out looking for it). It's like they just forgot about them in the rescue, or they discovered their fates off camera and didn't tell us.
Other than that though, very enjoyable. Lots of great character humour which is what I love most about Rebels (hence why I still love Brothers of the Broken Horn). And to add to that, it had great action, which IMO has been sorely missing from Rebels episodes so far. 9/10 from me.

 

I gave it a 7/10. Pretty good episode; though still not all that memorable for me. I guess from now on there won't be any more friction between Kanan and Rex. One less thing to have to drag on episode on episode.

 

One of the best episodes so far, if not the best. A lot of character development here, and some awesome action as well. I really enjoyed the plot, and thought the episode was paced very well. Overall, a fantastic episode, 10/10. We really got to see Ezra actually showing some skill with a light saber, and I really liked that.

 

Loved this episode, definitely one of my favorite in the show so far, and the best from Season 2! It managed to do something that 6 seasons of TCW couldn't: made me a fan of Rex. Great job Rebels team, keep 'em coming.

 

Why wouldn't you have liked Rex in TCW? I don't get it.

 

I enjoyed seeing the Empire from a Clonetroopers point of view.

"My loyalty was to the Republic, not your Empire".

10/10.

 

10/10

One my favorite episodes of Rebels. Love the humor and the action. Love the jokes about Stormtroopers not being able to shoot and Rex blaming it on the helmet. Loled at Kanan complaining about the armor not protecting them from anything.

The entire episode was full of awesomeness and clever dialog.

 

It's not that I didn't like him, I just didn't care for him that much. I've said this before (and I hate to sound like a broken record), but TCW never left a good impression on me, so no surprise that the characters didn't either. But, finally I can say I'm a Rex fan thanks to this episode of Rebels

 

Did you watch TCW all the way through season 6?

 

Absolutely. Watched it religiously, and still watch certain episodes every now and then.

 

I was referring to spicer's post

 

Yes I did. I watched the episodes as they aired regularly since 2008, and didn't like the show at all, but still watched it because it's star wars. I gave the show another chance this summer, and I marathoned all 6 seasons + Son of Dathomir and the story reels on youtube (haven't seen the bad batch arc though; that's the ONLY TCW thing I've yet to see/read). The conclusion is this show ain't what I'm looking for. Can't say the same about Rebels fortunately.

 

I guess it wasn't for everyone. But I have said this before in the forums, that if it wasn't for TCW's popularity, there wouldn't be a Rebels. As for me, I'm giving Rebels the benefit of the doubt. So far among the grades per episode, I think I've given one, maybe two episodes a perfect score. Come to think of it, at least regarding this episode; I probably would've given it a higher score if it wasn't so predictable. I think it would've been very poignant if Kanan had finally come to terms with respecting Rex as a person, when Rex sacrifices himself to save the others. And when I mean sacrificing himself, I mean really sacrificing himself. Kanan would be forced to live with guilt for the rest of his life. Just some food for thought.

 

Well, it was alright. I liked that it was action-packed, and I loved the banter between Kanan and Rex. Once again, I think the limited time available to the show really hinders it. All the multiple-episode arcs and two-parters we've had so far have worked far better than these one-shots because of their ability to have more nuanced scripts and the time to allow for more varied pacing.

I hope we get a larger plot coming up soon, because so far this season hasn't really hit it out of the ballpark for me yet. I'll wait and see I guess, we're still only about halfway through!

7/10
