While Hera Syndulla attempts to convince Rebel Command to attack the TIE Defender factory on Lothal, the rest of her team attempts the capture of a Mining Guild crawler.
After Hera smuggled the TIE Defender flight data recorder back to Rebel Command, the Rebellion is beginning to realize how dire a threat the new Imperial star fighter poses to them. The problem is that Hera can’t convince them to attack the production facility on Lothal. Meanwhile, Ezra, Kanan, Zeb, and Sabine are stuck on the southern hemisphere of Lothal and have no means of contacting the Rebellion until the spot a nearby Mining Guild crawler. It’s communications array may just be the solution they are looking for. Join us for another discussion of Rebels in this episode of Podcast Stardust.
