However, we once again enjoyed Vivien Lyra Blair and Moses Ingram’s performances, as the latter displays shreds of remorse, while leaving the viewer in no doubt that she’s prepared to harm the child. Leia and Reva’s interactions throughout the episode aren’t particularly well paced and can prevent the plot from moving forward. On closer inspection they each contain a force-sensitive host, preserved and suspended in an amber-like material. When we catch up with the Jedi he pauses and looks ahead at a double-tiered corridor, with rows of cell-like blocks. While Obi-Wan gains access to a secure part of the facility, the stormtroopers carry a screaming Leia into a large chamber and strap her into what is either a torture device (dark, we know…) or perhaps linked to what Obi-Wan is about to stumble upon (probably worse…). Reva beckons a stormtrooper and says: “I hope you like pain,” as Leia screams that she will never give up her friends. “I’ll have to tell my father first,” she says with a sarcastic undertone. I just don’t want anyone to get hurt…” Once again, Reva plays good cop and with hand on heart, swears not to harm anyone.īut the young Leia is playing her, much like she’ll later attempt nine years later, in the company of Grand Moff Tarkin. Reva continues to try and break Leia, but just as she seems to have gotten through to the youngster, the girl says: “I’ll tell you where they are. Apart from being a pretty cool Easter egg, decisions like this create greater cohesion between the many forms of Star Wars media and that can only be a good thing. Fortress Inquisitorius was first depicted in the video game ‘Jedi: Fallen Order’, where player-controlled Jedi, Cal Kestis (Cameron Monaghan), also infiltrates the complex from underwater. We then cut to an underwater scene that’s reminiscent of Obi-Wan’s descent into Otoh Gunga in ‘The Phantom Menace’.īut this isn’t the only reference.

The errant officer sets up at a series of computer terminals and uses a commlink to let Obi-Wan know she has access to the complex’s system. He realizes she’s in the wrong sector, but before he can act, the quick-thinking rogue officer dresses down her inferior for not calling her sir and is swiftly granted access. Tala has no trouble landing her shuttle in the fortress and makes good headway, before she’s stopped at a security checkpoint by an imperial jobsworth who demands to see her identification. And it really fits with the constant battle that’s perpetually raging through her character’s head. Moses Ingram’s ability to flit between intergalactic good cop and bad cop makes for compelling viewing. But when the senator’s daughter claims she doesn’t know anything, Reva drops the act. She then tells Leia she can go home if she reveals the location of the Path. With feigned compassion, she softly explains that he burned to death and that the fugitives’ she’s hunting left him for dead. When Leia asks how Obi-Wan died, the inquisitor changes her demeanour. Tala tells him he needs to heal more than just his body and that: “The past is a hard thing to forget,” insisting he has to overcome it if he’s to save Leia.īack at Fortress Inquisitorius, Reva continues grilling the youngster and admits the Empire thought the Path was a rumour.
While on Tala’s shuttle, Obi-Wan continues his attempts at reconnecting with the force but struggles to manoeuvre even a small object. Tala volunteers to go with him and use her credentials as an imperial officer to help the Jedi out from the inside.
Roken confesses he has no idea how much of the complex is underwater, but it’s Obi-Wan’s only way in. He reveals that the fortress is on Nur, a moon in the Mustafar system – where Vader’s personal fortress is also situated.
