    Who says Fulcrum knows Kanan and Ezra are Jedi?

    Does anyone have a screen cap of the portrait of Ezra's parents? I didn't get a good look to tell if his dad was a Clone Trooper or not.

    Depends on who you think Fulcrum is. If he is Bail Organa he knows based on the recording from R2.

    Well it's not Organa because when Kanan met him face to face he didn't seem to recognize him. On the first episode regarding Fulcrum, it seemed that Kanan knew who Fulcrum was. So I do not think it is Bail Organa.

    Lando is "confirmed" if u yu can call it dat. (I mean that he is in Rebels not confirmed as Fulcrum):-D The voice actor of Ezra said that in an interview with the Wolfpodcast. :) I think that he is not Fulcrum.

    I don't think that's definitive. Hera might be keeping everyone's secrets. Kanan might be in the dark on who Fulcrum is and Fulcrum might not have know Kanan is a jedi until he found out from R2's recording.

    I'm going to cast my doubt on the Lando theory I'm afraid. In TESB, we learn that Lando holds little interest in getting involved in the Galactic Civil War, as he just wants his mining operations to go on. This is true to the extent that he sells out his friends to the Empire just to move the Imperial attention and presence away from Cloud City. Due to this fact, I would find it hard to believe that Lando was involved in the rebellion this early on unless it had some great financial benefit to him, which I can't see being the case.

    As for the Lobot connection, I think I recall them mentioning the empire using that technology to create subservient workers? I could be wrong on that - I did watch it over a week ago now.

    I agree. I find it as unlikely as Han being a rebel. Hey maybe Fulcrum is Chewie.

    Fulcrum is still a mystery...but...Hera is holding on to some juicy info about Ezra and his family...the Inquisitor was awesome as always...Ezra tapped the dark side...an abrupt hyperspace exit goes from blue to every color in the visible spectrum...and yes...Ephraim Bridger might just be a clone trooper with a stache...this episode was great!

    Fulcrum is either The Princess herself or Ashoka.

    Okay I just re-watched Droids in Distress to compare Organa's Blockade Runner to the one in Gathering Forces. They are not the same ship. The one Organa has has red stripes on it where as the new one has a blue stripe. Fulcrum is absolutely not Bail Organa. At the same time I'm still not 100% sure its Ahsoka either, I'd like it to be but I believe there is someone else to be revealed.

    The Princess would be too young at this point. She would be around Ezra's age.

    I believe that Ezra, Leia, and Luke were all born on the same day. The day the Republic fell and the empire was born. "EMPIRE DAY" So yeah, I agree that Leia is too young to be Fulcrum.

    Anyone notice that the Inquisitor's helmet when he was in the TIE looked an awful lot like the one in the concept art for the TFA villain? Just throwin' it out there!

    My theory? Ahsoka is Fulcrom and she's being aided by Bail Organa and his political/financial resources henve the Alderaan Transport she has that is very similar to Bail's ship. Bail funds Ahsoka's (Fulcrom's) strategies against the empire and Ahsoka hires people like the ghost crew to accomplish the missions while she remains hidden in secrecy.
