List of Star Wars Rebels episodes


Star Wars Rebels is an American 3D CGI animated television series produced by Lucasfilm and Lucasfilm Animation. Beginning fourteen years after Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith and five years before the original Star Wars, Rebels takes place during an era when the Galactic Empire is securing its grip on the galaxy. Imperial forces are hunting down the last of the Jedi Knights while a fledgling rebellion against the Empire is taking form.

The series was previewed throughout August 2014 with a set of shorts introducing the main characters before the television film pilot episode premiered on Disney Channel on October 3, 2014. The regular series premiered on Disney XD on October 13, 2014. The second season started on June 20, 2015, and the third season premiered on September 24, 2016. As of January 21, 2017, 52 episodes of Star Wars Rebels have aired.

On a salvage mission to an old Clone Wars battlefield led by Captain Rex, the Ghost crew is captured by a unit of old battle droids. Their commander, a Super Tactical Droid, managed to avoid the armywide shutdown command and wants to pit his forces against Rex and the Jedi in order to conclude whether the Separatist or Republic forces are superior once and for all. As Rex, Ezra, and Kanan battle the droids, Chopper manages to sneak away and send a distress signal to Hera and Sabine. However, the Empire also receives the distress call and dispatches an assault force. Rex and the Jedi manage to reach the Super Tactical Droid, and Ezra points out to him that neither the Republic nor the Separatists won the Clone Wars, but were in fact both defeated by the Empire. Ezra also notes that since the Separatists were originally fighting to resist tyranny, the battle droids should naturally oppose the Empire. The Super Tactical Droid sees the logic in Ezra's words, and the Ghost crew and the droids work together to escape the Imperial assault force in a pair of old shuttles. Calculating that the Rebellion has less than 1% chance of succeeding against the Empire, the Super Tactical Droid amicably parts ways with the Rebels. Rex congratulates Ezra for doing what no Senator, Clone, or Jedi ever could: convincing clones and battle droids to set aside their differences.
Guest stars: Matthew Wood as B1-268 & Battle Droids, Dee Bradley Baker as Captain Rex.
