Obi-Wan finally swings his lightsaber around and makes whooshing sounds as Darth Vader makes his return.

The episode begins with Obi-Wan meditating aboard the cargo transport he and Leia stowed away on at the end of Episode 2. “Are you there, master,” he says as he tries to reach out to his old mentor, Qui-Gon Jinn . Kenobi's thoughts are soon corrupted by the voice of Reva: “He's alive, Obi-Wan,” as the camera cuts to two mechanical clamps being lowered into Darth Vader's bacta tank.

This scene finally confirms that James Earl Jones has reprised his role as the villain's menacing voice, something Lucasfilm had successfully kept under wraps. It was evident in 'Rogue One' that Jones's voice has changed slightly and due to this Vader's cleaner tone, we wouldn't be surprised if some digital jiggery pokery has been used to make it more akin to the original trilogy Vader.

Back on Mapuzo, a still untrusting Obi-Wan is ready to give up on Haja Estree's promise of help when Leia spots an industrial vehicle in the distance. The youngster immediately beckons the vehicle – much to Obi-Wan's dismay – and introduces them both as daughter and father from Tawl. We find the vehicle is piloted by an alien called Freck, voiced by Zach Braff . Props to Lucasfilm for the design of this character. He looks like a mole – fitting for a resident of a mining planet.

The moment is interrupted by an imperial checkpoint. When one of the stormtroopers enquires about Freck's passengers, the mole-like being says: “Thought you might wanna check 'em out.” When the suspicious trooper calls for a probe droid, Obi-Wan soon realizes he had no choice but to fight, but not before the recon unit scans his face and delivers the data to Fortress Inquisitorius.

As they ready themselves Tala reveals that she joined the Empire and before she realized what she'd gotten herself into it was too late. When she confesses her mistake, Obi-Wan interjects by telling her they all made mistakes to which she replies: “I can't imagine Obi-Wan Kenobi doing anything wrong.” The former Jedi shifts nervously, “It's just Ben, these days.” This is yet another example of how disillusioned Kenobi really is and McGregor sells it with aplomb.

Vader senses his old master and follows suit, leaving the inquisitors with orders to sweep the town. What we hope will prove to be just the first round of the fight of the century, takes place in a quarry. It makes sense, given the mining location, but isn't the most inventive of battlegrounds for a saga that's previously wowed fans with the carbon-freezing chamber, Emperor's throne room and Theed power generator.

Meanwhile, Leia has been pestering Tala to turn back and help Obi-Wan, insisting that she can make it the rest of the way on her own. The resistance fighter finally agrees – unaware that Reva is hot on their trail.
