    I really liked this episode, seeing the whole crew work together + Rex!

    +The new world look pretty nice
    +The practice duel with Kanan and Ezra
    +So much dark side Ezra foreshadowing...
    +The chill scene with Zeb and Ezra was great, ROCK MUSIC IN STAR WARS IS CANON!
    +Sabine getting tossed like a ragdoll by both Spiders and Kanan+Ezra. Trust me Sabine, jetpack arent that great...Jango and Boba Fett will vouch for me.
    +Rex DROPKICK!
    +AP5!
    +Kanan and Hera hug was cute. CAN YOU TWO JUST KISS EACHOTHER ALREADY!?
    +Surpise Ahsoka, 2spooky4me. Oh, and the Vader death scene theme playing.

    I honestly got nothing bad to say about this episode. 8/10.

    9/10 A great episode that had me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. I actually believed someone was going to die at one point. I loved the use of Clone Wars music when the Rebels were underground, reminded me of the good old days. And that ending! Bring on Twilight of the Apprentice.

    I actually liked last weeks episode better. Those spider things were too creepy for my liking, and the amount of foreshadowing was just ridiculous. At the start, when Ezra is like "when did you become my enemy?" And then the camera focuses on Hera looking upset about something, like what? He hasn't fallen to the darkside already, and I don't know how Hera would be so sure of it.

    It was nice to see Rex again, this is the most we've since him in an episode since Stealth Strike. Ahsoka and AP-5 both appeared as well, though not for very long, but I was happy to see them. My least favourite episode of Rebels yet, overall it was dragged out and poorly done, 4/10

    7. Waaaaay to much premonition for a single episode, It had me thinking of the future rather than the current story.

    A solid 7/10. This may have been one of the more emotional episodes because of the uncertainty it gives heading into the finale.

    I'd give it a 6 1/2 to 7 was decent but had some issues.

    10/10 for me! Was magnificently paced, and the action in and around the caves was intense! Loved seeing the Ghost crew working together (one last time...? :( ) And that ending... 7 days!

    Enjoyable episode with LOTS or even a little too much of foreshadowing for the finale next week.
    + Kanan and Hera interactions, so bittersweet and I liked the hug.
    + Vader's theme at the end.
    + Ezra can't instantly connect with every creatures, interesting that those spiders still didn't want to connect with him after he tried twice.
    + That sunset and the music
    + AP-5. He's not staying with the Ghost when they want to find Rex and the pilot
    - They completely forgot to look for the pilot after they rescued Rex, did they believe they devoured her ?
    - Spiders are more dangerous enemies than stormtroopers, they really struggled against them
    -/+ Foreshadowing everywhere. Kanan/Ezra training, Ezra/Zeb bonding about coming back, Hera's sad faces, the owl with the soundtrack in the ending. I understand something bad is about to happen, I get it.
    -/+ No Sabine, jet packs won't make you cooler but more eeasy target for a Sarlacc.

    Doesn't owls represent death or something like that in certain regions?
    7/10

    8/10.

    Found the episode enjoyable and it had some great moments. Had a good laugh when they accidentally threw Sabine off the cliff, knew they wouldn't kill her so it was very humorous.


    Also Rex, Rex always gets my thumbs up.

    9/10 just because I'm an Aliens fan

    + James Horner Aliens soundtrack homage
    + Zeb=Dwayne Hicks by yelling "eat this!"
    + Hera blasting one of the "spider-xenos" (can't remember the actual name of the animals) like Ripley did to the xenomorph in the original Alien
    + One of my favorite (until now) unused creature designs by McQuarrie as a xenomorph proxy
    + New, exotic, non-generic Star Wars planet
    + Great action
    + Great character moments and build up for the future
    - Abandoning the search for the A-Wing pilot as soon as they find Rex

    8/10. It was well paced and an interesting episode. Hopefully next episode will put everything together and be an epic finale. Based on the score at the end this episode, it seems next episode will have a darker tone to it.

    This was a pretty fun episode. Cool stuff with the spider things, and I liked the look of Atollon's geography. Dat hug at the end, though! Such a great moment, along with Ezra chilling with Zeb.

    8/10. Some great foreshadowing, and I loved the Aliens style this episode went with. The... well, let's just call them bugs for now... were really creepy and a great use of those old McQuarrie designs. Plus I loved when Rex went all:

    EAT THIS!

    I also enjoyed how Ezra finally found a creature that resisted his Force abilities.

    One last thing... I laughed at Sabine getting tossed off a cliff WAAAYYYY harder than I should have. I'm a total sadist! [face_laugh]

    Enjoyed the episode. One question - did they even bother looking for Dyson (the other pilot taken by the spiders)? It seemed like they found Rex and were like - okay, lets go.....

    More of a filler episode but definitely fun, particular at the end. Ezra mocking Zeb over the flashlight with his lightsaber was pretty funny, as was Kanan's happy face. Kanan and Hera are always good together.

    6/10- one hundred times better then last week.
    Pros- One last time seeing the whole crew working together
    -Ezra training so when he fights next week we know how he can hold his own
    -Training blades in action!
    -Hilarious spider death animation in cave.
    -Ezra foreshadowing
    -Really good finale set up.
    Cons.
    Chopper was in it....
    Totally gave up on other captured pilot.
    Space rock music...
    Best part of episode- finally seeing our Jedi using their lightsabers to do more than block blasters with, really cool to see Kanan slicing them up.
    Really happy they didn't actually say Malachor by name so now I can make my personal canon by erasing The Forgotten Droid from history and putting this before Shroud of Darkness.

    Gave it a 6/10. Yes, I get the main premise of this second-to-last episode of the season is to set up the breakup of what may come from the finale, but it's still something that could've been built up in past episodes. We're told that Kanan and Ezra will be joining Ahsoka in Jedi stuff; leaving Hera and the rest of the Ghost to focus on Rebellion activities. Built up basically one episode to have the sentimental good-byes among the crew.

    And speaking of Ahsoka, you're kidding me, right? The description of the episode said something about "Kanan, Ezra and Ahsoka prepare to depart to unravel Vader's secret". Wow lol. Featuring Ahsoka in the description, and she gets about 5 words to say at the very end in about a minute and a half of screentime. Yup, and then they're going to kill her off next episode, supposedly leaving Kanan and Ezra in mourning over their dear friend, Ahsoka Tano.
