FYI...Leia already knows that Obi Wan is "Ben", she found that out when they were running from the Inquisitors on the planet where Leia ran across the roof tops...So it's not that she's wondering about...she knows who he is, also, Tala called him that when they first got to the "safe house" where the "wall of jedi" was; and he said "It's just Ben these days"

[@bobbwc7011]

It is wrong and a retcon. In Episode 4 she clearly do not know who he is and it's clear she never met him. "Kenobi" is a disappointing shitfest contradicting the core Star Wars lore from the original trilogy.

[@silvershock82]

@@bobbwc7011 Explain to me how it's clear? Using words like that mean there is concrete and incontestable evidence that prove your point, and from what I can remember, there is nothing from A New Hope that indicates beyond a reasonable doubt that she never met him.

@@silvershock82 Dude, you can stop your pathetic fanboying right here. For any adult with regular brain function and IQ above room temperature "Kenobi" contradicts every bit of expositional and world building dialogue in A New Hope, and no childish ridiculous fanboy attempt of yours will undo that fact. Stop crying, take the punch in the face like a man, and accept that Disney has created an abysmally bad show, written by substandard writers who were allowed to break with the only canon lore that really counts: the movies episode 4, 5 and 6. Anything else is trash anyhow. I am no Star Wars fan at all, I couldn't care less about SW, I just watch it for what it is: pure, shallow entertainment when nothing else is on TV. And it is simply very clear that Disney intentionally broke continuity with the Original Trilogy. They have created a bad show which is of such poor quality that I won't continue watching reviews on it. It is an inferior waste of time.

[@marcusmcgill4423]

No, she found out he was a Jedi after all, but not once in that episode did they hint at her putting two and two together that he is one and the same. All that was said was him telling her that his name was Ben. Now in Episode 3, she could've heard the one Imperial spy call him Obi-Wan when he corrected her and said he goes by Ben these days just before he felt Vader's presence.

[@SharbtursGameCorner]

[@britneyshearer5935]

Reva trying to break a Skywalker is just hilarious. Nothing is more stubborn and dramatic than a Skywalker. Leia believing nobody was coming for her and STILL didn't reveal the info she knew. Padme would be so proud of her girl. Obi-Wan being able to Jedi when it involves saving Leia but not himself is perfection. I love it so much. Leia taking his hand at the end, and then her contentment when he held her hand back was 🥰🥺 The Vader murder walk is terrifying. He was MAD-mad. Poor Lola, being forced to betray Leia. 😭😭😭😭😭

[@jacob4920]

@@Moakmeister He doesn't have his mojo completely back, but you can see him really start to "flex his Force-muscles" in this episode, which I think was entirely the point.

[@paulgnsn554]

The bond Ben and Leia have now does make me think that she would have reacted more to his death in Episode IV than Luke...who barely knew him by comparison. Great reaction guys. It's wonderful to see how parents react to the young version of Leia, she makes me feel the same way, even though my kid is now a teenager.

[@lindaouellette6656]

Lol, I had the same thought… but it makes me feel better that even though she didn’t know she was force sensitive, she felt it was right for him to die like that because he was supposed to, like she said to Luke when told she was his sister… “i know, I’ve always known”

[@DarkElfPaladin]

I've been thinking about this recently. We have seen how obi wan is watching Luke most days, and we know Jedi can sense each other in the force. Luke doesn't have control of the force but he is very strong and I wouldn't be surprised if he could feel Obi Wan's presence even if he didn't know what it was. That means he felt that his whole life and then when obi wan dies suddenly he doesn't.

[@vipwanrinkle6439]

I’m taking it now that she is more mature for their age than Luke because she’s already had a lifetime of adventure in the 19 years she was alive being kidnapped by the empire and traveling around the galaxy whereas Luke has never left tatooine and obi wan was one of the only people he’s met in his life other than his aunt and uncle

[@wolf99000]

She has also had years of royal training in not showing emotion I mean look at when her planet is blown up its a small reaction in the movies yea she is upset but it does not last long Luke is going from one shock to another and has zero training in emotional control

[@agentsculder2451]

I think some of her lack of reaction to his death was that she was still processing the destruction of Alderaan. We never see it, but I'm sure at some point Leia had a good cry in private over that and Obi-Wan's death.

[@jasonmcewen436]

My thought about the mind probe power is, "the force can have a strong influence on the WEAK minded." Maybe Reva would be able to feel if it would be worth attempting?

[@michaelgoodyear9369]

Yea possibly. Also there are many times in star wars that Jedi dont use thier powers when they could have. Obi Wan should have wiped the floor with General Grevious in EP3. Greivous has no force abilities. Lol. Its just something in Star Wars I always overlook🙂

[@soulpc]

So… she felt Leia was worth attempting but Tala wasn’t? In other words, the force is stronger with Tala than Leia? 🤔 I am not one to nitpick plot holes or conveniences, but this show is just piling them up episode by episode.

[@generalgrievous696]

Thing about it is that she was able to sense Leia had a strong mind but wasn't able to penetrate it. but no red flags went up that a human who was only 10 years old is able to resist a mind probe. Only certain species in the Star wars universe that have that innate ability like jabba the Hutt and watto the toydarian. It's not a trait that's inmate to humans. If I was that inquisitor I would have done a blood test right away and informed Darth Vader.

[@superbobomario8849]

Yes, also my thought is that she might not be that strong in the force and can use that just ocassionaly, and she just did to Leia

[@ateam404]

She has only used mind control when no one is around so far so I assume the others inquisitors don't have that power (because then why ask if someone is harboring a Jedi) and she's hiding it for some reason.

[@redcardinalist]

I loved this episode (as I did 1-3). When I watched E4 (earlier today) I was really quite anxious and on edge as to what would happen; something I've never felt for any other SW movie or series before (although I did cry repeatedly in Rogue One...). This is a series that depicts the Empire seriously as a grim oppresive entity (as it should be). Last episode we had Vader killing innocent civilians (notably snapping a little boy's neck😲). This episode we're presented the prospect of a 10 year old girl being tortured....😱

[@johnw8578]

Regarding Reva's mind reading ability -- I think she is hiding it from others. Notice that she only uses it when she is alone with a person. Perhaps she does not want the other inquisitors (or Vader) to know about it, OR she can only use it when she is alone with someone (it's weakness; maybe she HAS to be alone or others' thoughts flood it). I think she is hiding it because I think she picked up on Vader's thoughts (how she knows he is Anakin) and that is not healthy for her.

[@bemasaberwyn55]

2 things I thought watching this. 1 having Lola being a homing beacon explains how she'd know the ease of escape on the Falcon. 2 discovering the tomb all I could think is "If you will be turned......you will be DESTROYED " I love the attention to detail that his blast deflection started to look more and more like his TPM self as his training came back to him

[@ChainsawTV1]

I loved the talent he displays and the focus thr show put on his blocking blaster bolts. Like we all know they can block bolts with thier sabers but rarely is it displayed for that long. With that accuracy he displays by hitting his targets. Loved that part of the episode.

[@JayGHDTTP]

Great reaction! I don’t understand why fans are stressing over why Vader let Obi Wan go in EP 3. His intent is to make Obi Wan suffer. He said this in the episode. Obi Wan won’t suffer if you kill him immediately. Vader is sadistic like that now. He trying to impose further mental and physical suffering on Ben just like he has endured the past 10 years. He’s not pressed for time 😂 I’m also not concerned about Reva’s use of the force to mind read. If she did that with everyone, we’d have no story. This is fiction, not a biography. Every plot doesn’t have to make perfect sense 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@TheWaziu]

So why was he so mad that obi wan got away in this episode if that was the plan all along? You take him and make him suffer not let him go and chase after him again to make him suffer.

[@JayGHDTTP]

@@TheWaziu You haven’t really paid attention to Vader’s personality throughout the canon. He’s never pressed for time. Perfect example…Empire Strikes Back…he let Luke go as well because he knew eventually…he’d see him again. Vader is calculated, never pressed.

[@wandering_penguino]

I also say someone point out in another reaction how even though Vader is this big badass he is still a burn victim and that mental trauma does not leave you. The commentator pointed out that he was a third-degree burn victim and he had to stop the show to get calm down after watching Obi-Wan get burned because it brought back flashbacks for him. So Vader not jumping over the fire makes total sense as he probably still has mental trauma from being burned so bad.

[@IvanTheUnholy]

Leia hiding under Obi-Wan's coat while the base was on high alert is beyond ridiculous from a writing perspective. On par with those chase scenes in ep 1 and 2 where grown men couldn't outrun a child.

When Leia asked what the force feels like and Obi-Wan said that it's like switching on the light when you're afraid of the dark - pretty much means he's been scared in the dark for ten years. So I don't think he had words to say to his worst nightmare.

How did obi wan view order 66,did he see clones as traitors since they didn't kill anakin

[@freerangegirl4457]

I think that if you look at the original recorded message to "General Kenobi" as being a way for Leia to somewhat hide her familiarity to Ben then it makes sense. Also, as an adult, Obi Wan would not know what she looked like unless he had seen her recently. Blurting out "Hey im Princess Leia" might not be so wise, so she commented on the relationship to her father. There was no way to guarantee that R2's message would make it to the right people.

[@cesargonzalez3599]

Why would it matter as the rest of the message was incriminating as heck too. Why was she so formal to Obi-Wan?

[@jay_ooh]

I absolutely agree, I think Leia's message to Obi Wan was more of a "diplomatic" one, rather than a casual call for help...and like NIkki said, in case it got into someone else's hands, they would know the grand capacity of Obi Wan's ability/accomplishments.

[@madelinegarber7860]

[@SharbtursGameCorner]

it's not really a matter of thinking that is the reason, We are forced to make that assumption now within disney's canon of events

[@troylazarus4102]

There is some controversy regarding whether Lei remembered Obi-Wan Knobi in "A New Hope." She says, "General Kenobi: Years ago, you served my father in the Clone Wars; now he begs you to help him in his struggle against the Empire." That somewhat sounds like she doesn't know him personally because she is referring to his service with her father as if to identify who she is or who her father is - which Knobi would know based on this show. I still think she knew him personally... George Lucas just wrote lines in a way that were often confusing.

[@mainsource8030]

Fortress Inquisitorius and the planet Nuur (where it’s located) were both references to the video game released in 2019: Star Wars Jedi, Fallen Order (fantastic game by the way, for anyone who wants to experience a great SW story and feel like a Jedi).

Ok. I will still wait to see how they’ll justify Vader saying to Obi-Wan “When I left you, I was but a learner.” But what they can’t salvage at this point is Leia’s lack of emotion after Obi-Wan died on the Death Star (whereas Luke was CRUSHED). After building so much bond here, all she could say to Luke was “There was nothing you could’ve done” in a complete “I’m sorry for your loss” mode?

[@agentsculder2451]

[@soulpc]

@@agentsculder2451 Yes, she did. And I was okay with her simply mildly feeling bad for Obi-Wan's death until this show where Obi-Wan was clearly supposed to be someone really dear & special, not just someone who "fought the Clone War alongside her father". I am just saying this whole show is nothing more than a glorified fan fiction that doesn't add any details or layers to the original trilogy. Who knows? Perhaps they'll wipe Leia's memory of Obi-Wan, just like they did with C-3PO and R2.

[@paulnone9984]

Do you guys not even notice what's going on? None of this makes sense in the episodes. There is no continuity and it's all goofy and silly banter now to make star wars a complete joke. This was probably one of the goofiest things I've ever seen in any show of having Obi-Wan wear a coat and walking with Leia beside him, but NO ONE noticed him? They couldn't sense him in this episode walking NEXT TO them, but they could sense him when he was farther away in other episodes? How are you all praising this crap Disney is putting out when it literally tears down characters and changes who they are entirely? Even the writers admitted they never watched ROTS, lol.

[@RockFan89]

I just want to say I love watching your reactions. There's always something I didnt catch or think about when I had watched it.

[@Tacid]

If they don’t explain why Vader let Obi-wan go then my official head canon is that Vader didn’t, Anakin did. When Luke told Vader that he believed there was still good in him he replied « Obi-wan once thought as you did » I think this will be the tie in.

[@shaggjones4854]

dumb, stop using ''head canon'' to excuse piss poor writing

[@JR-xy6br]

He let obi wan go to toy with him to make suffer more and to let obi wan train more so Vader can fight him at his best

[@Adam-xg1ch]

@@JR-xy6br then why was he so pissed when Reva didn’t capture Obi-Wan? Vader cleary wants Obi-Wan captured, which makes the scene in ep 3 even worse when Vader just doesnt walk around the fire or put out the fire or do anything. i think they just wanted the cool shot of vader and the flames.

[@JR-xy6br]

@@Adam-xg1ch maybe Vaders conflicted he wants obi wan captured to torture him but at the same time wants to leave him to train so Vader can beat a more powerful obi wan I do feel like anakin does come in to play I mean it’s not the first time his emotions got the best of him and made him do brass decisions

[@winter1235]

I'm not a military strategist, but if you send out a message knowing it might get intercepted, wouldn't you use as vague and undetailed language as possible? Knowing that the recipient will understand the gist of it, even if you don't flesh out your entire relationship. Anyway, we might still get a scene where Ben tells Leia how to contact him if she needs him.

[@Ian-Omega]

He already has the communicator that Bail contacted him on. Leia could have just called him on that instead of putting the message into R2 but the writer of this show doesn't know Star Wars. He admitted that he never even saw Revenge of The Sith.

[@ochayethenoo]

@@Ian-Omega I can't find a single source for your claim about the writer never having seen Revenge of the Sith. You're talking bullshit.

[@Cromicus99]

I honestly thought that Obi Wan would somehow have a major event like being somehow reunited with Yoda to bring him back into balance with the force before taking on the Inquisitor base. It does feel a little like they are rushing through it a bit. Overall I'm loving the show though, and the moment with him and Leia holding hands, man ..... as a dad... that hit me dead in the feels.

[@angie-tq4ew]

Is it possible that Reva's true talent lies, not in mind reading, but as an Empath. Perhaps she's an extension of Vader's thoughts & feeling. When she saved herself from being choked to death by Vader by saying "I let them go." It's what Vader did in the last episode. It would explain the unexplained obsession with Obi Wan, and her matching ruthlessness. She dresses almost like him, too. She doesn't seem to have the ability to mind read (except maybe for weak, or non-force users), but her talents might be of feeling their thoughts. Like a human lie-detector. Ask the right questions, and she feels whether she's spot--on, or not. She couldn't receive anything from Leia, because even at a young age, Leia is strong with the force. And, Leia is also, somewhat of an empath herself.

[@generalgrievous696]

That can't be it because she was able to pull direct information from the fake Jedi guys mind in the second episode of the series it's just an inconsistency. And for instance we know that this ability to pull information from minds works on individuals who are for sensitive because Darth Vader was able to extract information from Luke's mind in their final duel that he had a twin sister and later on kylo Ren used that ability as well. The problem we have with this is that The Inquisitor didn't stop to ask why why is a 10 year old human able to resist the talent that she was honed and using on others especially when humans are not shown to have that innate ability without training against force users and especially not among non force sensitive humans it should have put a red flag in her mind right away Leah needed to be tested to see if she was force sensitive and reported to Darth Vader

[@angie-tq4ew]

@@generalgrievous696 True. But, again, I'm thinking she's just a vessel - an imperfect one, perhaps, but none of these characters are perfect in their abilities. Not even Vader. Again, she didn't ask the right questions, but it's because of the fault in the character, not necessarily of the writing.

[@mainsource8030]

@@angie-tq4ew oh no, the writing is tip top 😂

[@nickmitsialis]

Well they used the 'using the force to hold back the flood' 'trick from Fallen Order (except it was Vader who was forced to do it, allowing our hero to escape). Now I'm almost sure Reva will end up like Trilla==with Vader slicing her in half for failing him at a critical moment.

[@digitalspinach8888]

Always goto you guys first for reactions. Awesome , I appreciate your comments! Thank you

[@matthollands7771]

I think Leia doesn't make her message to Ben in ANH personal, because she didn't want to risk if it fell into someone else's hands that they would have that info and use it against them both. Remember, Leia is really smart, AND grew up in both royalty and the rebellion. She's not going to send out a personal message in the hopes that R2 would even find Ben.

[@piercelo5277]

By the beginning of Episode III Obi-Wan was the greatest practitioner of Soresu in the history of the Jedi Order. Yoda and Mace Windu themselves said so. Soresu is grounded in defensive technique ie parrying blows and deflecting blaster bolts. So Obi at his worst is still better at blocking blaster fire than most others at their best.

[@goestheboom5211]

You guys are my fav react couple every other couple that I watch one of them isn’t actually a fan of Star Wars and doesn’t understand anything going on while the other one explains it but both of you guys enjoy Star Wars and understand the story and are genuinely invested in the story

[@logicoveremotion3321]

... Reva is smart enough to know vaders desire for kenobi is his weakness to her goals

[@postalsaint]

Ok. I just put it together. Reva is Ice Cube Jr's wife. "The Inquisitors came and got her anyway!" Just like there was a big reveal at the end of Empire Strikes Back, there will be a big reveal at the end of Obi-Wan Episode V.

[@maryb3909]

I can see the actresses that play Leia and Reva are actually buddies on set. Or at least I hope so.

Whoa! didn't expect the episode to be reviewed this fast. Well done guys!. Kudos to everyone involved. speaking about the episode, that tracker is going to be a problem. This show gives us a chance to have a look at Vader's brutal personality.

Thats the same place that cal goes and cere also stops the water and escape

I have faith that the rematch between Vader and Kenobi in episode 5 or 6 shall depict Obi-Wan significantly more to proper form.

[@jasonspaulding3949]

Notice when she mentions the Grand Inquisiter the security chief doesn’t say that he’s dead so there is a chance we see him before the end

[@jsmerkie111]

Could Reva be a double agent? There was a look on her face that seemed to indicate that she didn't want to torture Leia; she "threw" the box at Wade's ship AFTER 3rd brother told her to bring it down, and, from ep. 2(?), she didn't attempt to get on the transporter or bring it down...not sure, just inferring

[@rhysdreamsbig5802]

Wouldn’t be Star Wars unless you dressed as an imperial to get into every imperial base 😂

[@njzynj]

I'm so glad to hear you say that you're going to reserve your complete opinion to the last episode, because it's a six episode series. If they wanted everything to happen at once they would have made a movie. Love you guys! PS it shocked me to hear Reeva mention Obi-Wan to Leia too, because I thought she only knew him as Ben. Knowing him only as Ben would have filled a little bit of a hole in the continuity between this series and New Hope.

[@nuhuh9893]

Sometimes it just takes one scene to win me over, and that was when Leia took Obi-Wan's hand with her tiny little hand. If I remember nothing else about this series, that will be the scene that stays with me.

[@blackeyedlily]

When you mentioned the call back to Obi-Wan sneaking around the Death Star in A New Hope, I wanted to smack myself in the forehead! I always seem to associate Ewan with the Prequels when he is on stage. But you are so right. There were many call backs to A New Hope in this episode. And I also agree that the actress playing Leia is wonderful! I get so mad when I hear that there are some people complaining about her. It feels like there is always this small, but very vocal, segment of the Star Wars fandom that brings so much negativity with them due to the specific lens that they view Star Wars through. And anything that deviates from that lens is going to cause huge complaints. I just hope the creators see that the larger fandom is more positive about the stories as a whole. I haven’t read a tremendous amount of the Star Wars tie-in novels. There are just so many of them! But two that I did read were Bloodlines and Leia: Princess of Alderaan. Both novels are written by Claudia Gray, and I highly recommend them. Bloodlines explores Leia time as a Senator, after her son Ben has joined Luke for training. And Leia: Princess of Alderaan explores her late teen years, as she begins to realize her parents involvement with the Rebellion. For anyone interested in more character development for Leia, these books are a rich reward. And Claudia Gray is a great storyteller.

[@ladygeekgirl]

Impressive getting the edit done and uploaded!

[@Latexi_LMX]

Fun fact, Star Wars has used finnish in some of their terminology before, like Masters of Teräs Käsi (Teräs Käsi = Steel Hand), on the other hand, no pun intented, this new villains name Reva, well Reva in finnish slang is females female part between the legs ;)

[@DarthPlaya]

Awesome Reaction 👍 Given Best line of the episode: Leia "Is this a staring game?" Best scene of the episode: Vader doesn't give Reva the standard gentle "I find your lack of faith disturbing" force choke. He gave her the full "Cocked-Back-Yanked-Off-Your-Feet" force choke!

[@roboman34]

great to watch you , reactions , as , personal , stuff I cant see the shows , love you guys , love , from south east london england

[@cheezal2]

I havent yet watched this episode but i am replying on your intro points.. You have to remember that Hatred and Anger is a trait of the Sith, Look at the battle between Maul and Qui Gon when the wall seperates them... Maul fuels his hatred to be ready to attack pacing like a lion back and fourth ,where despite being revved up Qui Gon Sits and attempts to calm himself... and thats the difference.. Vader made his fortress on Mustafa because what place living there would daily remember you of you fate, Anakin as a person died there,burnt in this place,left to die by his mentor...which is why he has that hatred... and Palpatine brought him back hence his loyalty to the Emporer.

[@patsysoto1686]

If you remember, even Darth Vader had no knowledge of Leia's force abilities, and he was the one who tortured her on the Death Star... Leia's force abilities were very subtle... which made her a very good senator, and as a child we see how she would use those abilities in the future...

[@Leonardo-yt7qf]

how do I like it when Vader appears in the frame, such a brutal and epic character, and if the episodes went on for an hour, it would be even more excellent
