    Full spoilers, so if you haven't seen it and don't want to be spoiled, stay away from this tread.

    The band of rebels minus Hera (who is helping with the alliance proper and just has a small cameo via hologram) are leading a raid to free Sabine's dad. Bo-Katan's group shows up to help. Sabine tries to give her the darksaber but Bo is all like "I'm not the leader type", but I guess she'll step up by the end of the season.

    There is a good bit of humor and action as the episode starts with a raid on a prison and Ezra can't handle his jetpack. Sabine's dad isn't there and is instead on a troop transport.

    It gets raided in a good action scene and we learn a bit about Sabine's dad.

    In a brutal and heart breaking twist, Sabine's weapon is deployed against many of the mando forces, including Sabine's mom, and basically turns them all to dust.

    Feel free to ask any questions.

    So, is Sabine's dad someone we know, what is Sabine's weapon exactly, and is Ursa (Sabine's mom) killed?

    I think the trailer and the news about Rebels ending after Season 4 drained out much of the news about the first episode.

    Must have. I remember reading that the 1st episode would be shown but I haven't heard or read anything about it since. Until now.

    The dad is a new character. We don't see the weapon. We see a vehicle, I forget which charge into battle on its own, and then cut back to the main group freeing Sabine's dad. We hear a boom and see light in the distance. When it cuts back, there is just clothes everywhere and dust/ash. The implication being that it disintegrates organic matter only.

    To be fair, I didn't know it was happening. Usually celebrations are very upfront about doing a screening. This one was called "rebel season 4 sneak peak" and the first hour was the case waxing nostalgic about what season 3 meant for them. Then we got a trailer and Filoni was like "If you liked that trailer, what a better way to keep the high going than to show you an episode too.

    I don't think Sabine's mother actually died. There is a clip from the season 4 trailer of Bo-Katan with the Darksaber flanked by Sabine and Ursa, alive and well.

    Also, Saxon refers to a 'Duchess'. Think we'll finally get Rook Kast before the series ends?

    Doesn't Tristan (Sabine's brother) also get blown up by her weapon? Also, I don't think Ursa and Tristan died in that episode. Unless the Season 4 trailer isn't finalized, they appeared in a scene where Bo-Katan wielded the darksaber.
