    I think many people expect way too much from this show.

    We been spoiled by the Mandalorian it's fans service, and the people behind Kenobi are hyping it up too. This will tell a great story about the relatioships between Obi Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker and how their choices affected each other and the galaxy. But also there'll be tons of fan service from PT, Clone Wars, Rebels, OT and ST. I wound't be surprised if Kenobi gets a vision of Rey Skywalker as way to tie in with him reaching out to her 35 years after his death.

    I rather expect they come up with Obi having an affair and a child. Or at least a sibling of him showing up with a baby Kenobi

    No i don't see either options with Satine being his only love, and don't see any reletive looking for Kenobi.

    I hope they make an explanation why Obi Alzheimer did not remember C3PO and R2D2 in ANH

    And he never did own them. He was just friends with them. Like he referred to Artoo when he told him to come to him.

    In Clone wars it seems Obi Wan dosent really care for R2, when Anakin loses him. I think its same issue with Owen not reconising 3CPO.

    "Come here my little friend" is not how someone talks to a random droid they are cold toward.

    Obi-Wan is generally a friendly sort of person. He will treat machines with kindness even if he considers them "just" machines.
    That said, seeing Artoo and Threepio again is likely a bit emotional for him as it should remind him of Anakin, Padmé and the old days.
    He doesn't say anything about it, though, because it's not something Luke needs to know - and he doesn't want him asking too many questions about the past at that point.

    With the Satine Kryze indirectly being mentioned i wonder if Kenobi flashbacks could have some Satine and Kenobi momments either in clone wars or before. Or will he just mention her as his one love.

    Also, it absolutely would trigger a sense of, "So, it is finally time..."

    When Artoo and Threepio show up with the son of Anakin, everything must finally be starting to happen.

    Indeed. And the message from the daughter of Padmé seals the deal.

    He does. "Can't seem to remember ever owning a droid" Of course, his next line was; "Can't seem to remember where I parked my car", so...

    Where I come from, "ever owning a" does not mean the same thing as "that".

    Yeah no, he doesn't. This is "Luke, I'm your father" all over again.

    Luke tells him that R2 claims he belongs to Obi-Wan Kenobi. Obi-Wan answers by saying that he doesn't seem to remember ever owning a droid, which is in fact completely true. He never owned a droid. Not once did he say that he doesn't remember R2 or 3PO.

    This line, in combination with there being countless droids of the two types, and Alec Guinness pausing as if to make his character think how to word things before answering, make the whole thing a complete non-issue. There is no part in which Obi-Wan is forgetting something he should be remembering.

    The whole movie is full of stuff which Obi-Wan tells "from a certain point of view". He is never telling Luke the whole thing, only ever what he needs to know at that point.
