That shot with the 4 Venators and the imperial Star Destroyer was awesome

[@thedarkknight2221]

Thrawn pointing out the vulnerabilities in the Empire that inevitably led to its downfall just proves once again why he is one of the greatest antagonists in sci-fi and fantasy history. Just like Tommy Shelby from Peaky Blinders, *He Thinks.*

[@tortoiseoflegends4466]

Well, book Thrawn is anyway. Show Thrawn is only fantastic about 25% of the time, the rest of it he just stands about with a thumb up his ass staring at a map while the Rebels keep winning.

[@thedarkknight2221]

@@tortoiseoflegends4466 no, he studied them, testing what their strengths and weaknesses were, he plays the LONG game, and it almost worked. Remember if it wasn’t for Konstantin’s incompetence and the Bendu’s interference Thrawn would’ve wiped out the Rebels on Atollan.

[@tortoiseoflegends4466]

@@thedarkknight2221 That's what the show says, but in practice literally all he's doing is sitting on his ass at the end of every episode. He's a completely passive villain and it's very boring to watch. "Ohoho all according to plan" with no further elaboration at the end of every episode. He's Dr Klaww saying "I'll get you next time, Gadget!" Hell, the one major character death in Rebels has nothing to do with him. Any imperial could have tracked down the rebel base and launched the attack, there was nothing special happening there, they just attacked with superior firepower. No interesting tactics needed. Because he doesn't actually *do* anything until the finales, he's incredibly boring. Season 4 especially, he literally shows up in the last 10 minutes and instantly gets defeated. You couldn't have had him around for at least an episode?! And he's just near incompetent in Ahsoka.

[@thedarkknight2221]

@@tortoiseoflegends4466 remember in episode 1, he purposely let the rebels escape because he knew that wasn’t the main force and if he DID kill them he would have to wait for another set of Rebels whose tactics and strategies wouldn’t have been as easy to exploit. He also brilliantly let Callus/Fulcrum keep giving Phoenix squad intel so that inevitably he could track them down, and he did.

[@45TRANSFORMERSFAN]

I admire Thrawn in this episode, simply by how accurate he is to his book character than all his other appearances. We get to hear his thoughts on the Empire as explored in the books, why he stands out from everyone else. He recognizes the flaws that would eventually doom it, wanting to fix them.

[@Coolgame6812]

Samee, but I can't help but feel blue-balled by how they made Thrawn so accurate, new model and all, just to most likely never have him animated agian. His story is now constrained to rebels and rebels part 2- I mean, Ahsoka

[@anthonyyoutubefan7567]

One has to understand that, the Thrawn We see in Ahsoka, is one who has been exiled from the known galaxy for about 11 years. NO ONE comes back from that the exact same person they were before. His experiences have changed...his understanding of space travel is changed...his first-hand knowledge of The Dathomiri and Nightsister Magick dwarfs what he knew during his time with The Empire...his awareness of the powers of The Force are completely altered...just like, once he finds out that Lord Vader has offspring who are both strong with The Force, his mindset and battle strategies will react and adapt. That's the brilliance of Filoni's writing: We're seeing Thrawn in different ways, during different time periods in his life.

[@masteryoghurt2110]

Thrawn from the books didn't know Pellaeon at this point. They met each other for the first time in Thrawn: Treason a few hours before the finale of Star Wars Rebels last season. It's a retcon. It should have been Kharyn Faro, not Pellaeon but Filoni doesn't give a shit.

[@TheGreater-ScopeVillain]

Indeed. I love how much Thrawn believes in the Empire, in Palpatine’s vision, and genuinely thinks it is the best thing for the galaxy and wants to do everything he can to make sure it succeeds.

[@Golfballtauchen]

​@@anthonyyoutubefan7567 "brilliance of Filonis writing" Filoni is a bad writer, sure he can make animation Series well, but the rest? Middle or Garbage. Thrawn is in Rebels and Ashoka dumb and nothing near brilliant, do you know why? because the writers like Filoni are incompetent. We need People like Tony Gilroy (Andor) and not Filonis, that cant write good Storys. Animated storys to write, is more easy. Because of this there so good working in Star Wars.

[@iluvyummywaffles]

Man, Thrawn has such a presence, and I love every second of his screen time!!!

[@Coolgame6812]

I'm super bummed about how his new model most likely won't be used after this :( but major props to whoever wrote his dialogue, it was short but better than his dialogue in Ahsoka and rebels

[@anthonyyoutubefan7567]

@@Coolgame6812 How do you know that We might not get, in the future, a Tales Of The Empire that features 3 shorts on Thrawn? Most likely, the dialogue was part of Dave Filoni's story structure for the whole series. The Thrawn We see here with Morgan, is not the same one We see on Peridea, probably decades later. If you were filmed giving a statement at 27, and then, you were quoted on a different subject at 50, are you certain your demeanor and mindset would be exactly the same?

[@Coolgame6812]

@@anthonyyoutubefan7567 I do certainly hope we get more animated SW content but as of right now, for the first time since the cancelation of clone wars, we don't have any confirmed future line-up of animated projects. I don't doubt we'll get more Tales of the Jedi/Empire though, and I'm fairly certain we'll be getting an Asajj Ventress show in the future. On the topic of Thrawn though, I understand what you're saying, but I feel the main allure of Thrawn is his wits, which are seemingly dulled in Ahsoka. To new fans who haven't read the books or watched rebels, we're only told that he is a threat to the ENTIRE GALAXY. But he doesn't really do anything to show that. There wasn't a single moment in Ahsoka where I was like "Oh woah that's actually really smart, this guy could be a problem", he just acts as a typical imperial officer bad guy. Though I'm hoping in season 2 we get a moment of him showcasing his strategic genius against the New Republic in maybe a large scale space skirmish or something. But I know that none of the main characters will die so the stakes are still pretty low.

[@anthonyyoutubefan7567]

@@Coolgame6812 I absolutely expect to see an even darker, more calculating, and even borderline cut-throat Thrawn, now that he's arrived back in the known galaxy, and is operating from Dathomir. He was in a compromised, desperate state, when We encountered him in Ahsoka, on Peridea. Now, he has The Remnant Empire at his disposal. Don't worry...it's going to be fine. Filoni is presenting Thrawn in different periods and states of power and ability, and his respective handling of them. I will be rather shocked, if, within the next 6 months, it isn't announced that We'll be getting a SW: The Hidden Path Animated series; esp. since certain voice actors have hinted that their days of portraying certain characters AREN'T over. From Ventress' appearance in TBB, to Barriss Offee and Lyn Rakish's dramatic dynamic in TOTE, to the hints that The Clones will be forces to be reckoned with in the time of The Empire, to Emerie Karr working with Senator Chuchi on Pantora, and Ahsoka and other displaced Jedi (inc. Jedi Master Kelleran Beq and Grogu), Padawans, and potential Force-sensitives (like the 4 abducted kids from Mount Tantiss) scattered throughout the galaxy...THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING AFOOT. Heck, I'd LOVE a 2-hr. Animated theatrical release of The Hidden Path, in the tradition of Lucas and Filoni's The Clone Wars movie from 2008, heralding this new major SW story, then continuing it on Disney +, not long after.

I somehow never even thought of the tie defender as being the thing that connects her with Thrawn. That’s a genius way to expand the lore and connect those two.

[@collecter343]

Definitely explains why he had so much trust in her and the Great Mothers to support him in his return.

[@OrionInSpace]

@@collecter343 exactly

[@zephyr835]

And if Thrawn is able to have more Defenders made (which I've already been hoping), it's another remaining link to Morgan after her death -- for the story, that is, not because Thrawn would get sentimental.

@@zephyr835 interesting look on it although it sucks we won’t ever see the tie defenders again

[@zephyr835]

@@OrionInSpace I guess we'll see. Thrawn could still have the design.

The Shot the 3 Star Destroyers in the Fog of the Night looks so awesome.

[@seanpatrickcain2]

Pretty cool.

[@anthonyramos9232]

Seeing Morgan be the brains behind the TIE Defender, her meeting with Thrawn, & her fight seen really cool. And we meet yet another short sighted Imperial Officer

[@johannesbowers7467]

Being the pitchman at a meeting is not the same as being the designing engineer. She did certainly have the foresight to identify it as a project worthy of pursuit and her backing/support.

[@thewerewolff7248]

so upon a second watch I've realised the reason they show venators alongside a single imperial star destroyer isn't to suggest this is early days empire but is in fact in order to contrast with the end of the episode where Thrawn has three star destroyers show up which he claims "is just a portion of my fleet". Its to show Thrawn is more powerful than the Moff seen earlier in the episode and will make a much better ally for Morgan than the Moff ever could have been. Should be noted in current canon venators are still in use by some in the Empire as late as 2bby as one is shown in age of rebellion darth vader which star wars timelines dates as occuring in 2bby.

[@Culperrr]

Oh yeah. Great perspective. I had those thoughts but it was because I wondered why Thrawn was able to take over the operations instead of the Moff coming in. I thought maybe he was lying to the Moff in some way or that Thrawn would "take care of it" and send falsified reports. Perhaps not, since I am sure many in the Empire would find an excuse possible to end Thrawn. It is interesting to think of, though.

[@MeyaRoseGirl]

I knew it was coming, but I still was so overjoyed to hear Thrawn's voice.

[@jonasquinn7977]

My interpretation of Wing’s line at the end is that by turning on her after she initially failed to procure the jobs she’d promised Wing knew that they’d burned any bridges they may have had with her and that Elsbeth is petty and vengeful enough that she wasn’t going to forgive them or be a kind ruler now that she had the power she wanted

[@abthedragon4921]

I LOVE that exchange between Morgan Elsbeth and Thrawn. Not just because of the animation and dialogue but how their themes play off of one another. The music just adds so much to the exchange, Kevin Kiener truly is the John WIlliams of Star Wars animation!

[@ketchup016]

It's impressive how much detail and expression this animation can convey now, so that the characters really look like the actors portraying them

[@BG_StuartJ]

12:15 Thank you, Aaron. I was thinking the same thing. The citizens wanted her to bring the Empire there and are mad she didn't, then they're upset she did before things go to shit. It didn't make sense

[@AmazingChi]

They burned the bridge by turning on her when she 'failed'. Then didn't intervene in the fight, which she won. They bet on her downfall, and lost.

[@crossfusion1233]

I see some people are so quick to jump at Filoni for supposed plot holes. I'm referring to Pellaeon showing to be working with Thrawn earlier than the books made it seem. I'll admit, I had the same thoughts at first. That said, we don't know the full context, just because he's not directly under Thrawn at the time of the book doesn't mean never was before. Also, it's not like George Lucas didn't make errors as well within his own continuity. (Looking at you 'Leia somehow remembers her mother despite her dying during child birth') Mistakes happen. Nothing is perfect. So why don't we all take a step back, give the creators the benefit of doubt and just enjoy these fun stories we are getting.

[@acdragonrider]

My code is to have faith in the creators. 🙏🏻 They are writing the Bible for this world and we are along for the ride.

[@PerovNigma]

I've heard it suggested that he was spying for Thrawn before _Treason._

[@zephyr835]

Seems simple enough to me that Pellaeon could've been working with Thrawn off the books (no pun intended). That may be why there's a distance maintained in what we see between them here. If Pellaeon didn't think there was enough potential in working with Morgan, the next stage wouldn't have happened and Morgan would have no idea who the "superior" is.

[@codefreak8]

It's a mythology. Even "real" mythologies have different perspectives of the same events which may lead to inconsistencies depending on who is telling the story and what their goal is in telling it. In this case, Pellaeon being with Thrawn in this moment served a purpose for the story being told. It's totally possible to smooth it over by having Pellaeon already being enamoredwith Thrawn and being willing to do jobs for him under the table while not officially being a part of his fleet. It's typical for people who work with and like Thrawn to do unconventional things the rest of the Imperial Navy would dislike.

[@reapersoul8506]

George Lucas is the king of plot holes and retcons so it’s fitting that his apprentice would be the same

[@reaganmonkey8]

When I saw the scene where Morgan was talking to the villagers (4:13), I thought they were gonna be the Noghri in the Dave Faloni movie. Then I remembered the Noghri are already in canon.

[@chaosphoenix13]

This breaks the Thrawn trilogy timeline in the newer series. Pellaeon meets Thrawn after he is a grand admiral.

[@San4311]

And just in general, Thrawn didn't have 'a fleet' when he was Admiral. He had command over task forces, but no fleet. He only got command of the 7th Fleet when he became Grand Admiral.

[@OfficialDoggyYT]

TIE/D Defender Elite is my fav spacefighter in Star Wars, thanks Morgan :33

[@meswoopnoseenothing]

Knowing how Thrawn is, he probably works directly alongside Morgan to make the defenders even more effective than they already are, which is why he treats it like it’s just as much his project in the future

[@raphael_2d878]

Even though the Barris episodes had better story, the action and fight choreo in the Morgan episodes were so clean.

[@Depth217]

Thrawn looks amazing in TCW animation. I am totally fine with his Rebels design but this looks even better. Rebels has an animation style that’s more animated per say where they’re always moving, but now with Lars in live action we’ve seen Thrawn be very still when he speaks. And this had it very faithful to Lars’ live action performance.

[@user-dx5ek7jf7p]

This episode was just perfect I mean the tie defender project, paelion ruhk and thrawn all together was just a perfect moment. Lars once again a flawless performance as the grand admiral and he I think was even more bone chilling in tales then Ashoka. I love to how thrawn alway knew the empire would crumble his fellow officers thought he was arrogant for seeing that but in the end he was only ever trying to offer truth about what was to come.

[@johannesbowers7467]

Morgan's story has a long downward spiral... I'd be interested in how she assumed control of the Corvis system and acquired the Beskar Spear. Morgan being the first advocate for the Defender to the Empire does not make her personally responsible for the design, just the primary backer in the initial development.

[@KingAce595]

So she lets her hate out against who? And the thing with the defender is also a little bit weird. I mean her whole life she was using and focousing on her magic with her tribe. You never see the nightsisters use any kind of technology or even fly ships(except for ventress). But after 5 to 7 years shes able to create the most advanced star fighter out of nowhere. I liked the bariss arc. Wasnt awesome but gave a good end to the character. But they should have gone for a other tale with morgan. Her character worked in the shows but i dont think she needed a backgroundstory. At least not in tales of the empire. I think are far better(imperial) characters for that role.
