Plot summary
The Episode Begins With The Ghost Under Attack By Multiple TIE Fighters and The Inquisitors' TIE Fighter Advanced. In the Ghost Sabine and Ezra argue about Ezra's parents after Tseebo reveals that he knows about their fate Until Sabine is called away by Hera to man the nose-guns. The Inquisitor after repeatedly firing to deactivate the Ghost's Shield launches an Imperial XX-23 S-Thread tracker from his TIE-Fighter Advanced unknown to the Ghost Crew. On board Ezra asks Tseebo if his parents are actually dead to which Tseebo just says to forgive him as he couldn't raise Ezra which prompts an Infuriated Ezra to call him a coward for not saving his parents and tells that he'll never forgive him until Hera calls him to repair the Nav-Computer as Chopper is down. As Ezra tries to repair it Tseebo comes in and directly signals Hyperspace co-ordinates to the Ship and the Ghost jumps into Hyperspace and Hera thanks Tseebo for his help. Hera, Sabine, Ezra and Kanan then discuss about about what to do to Tseebo. Kanan asks Ezra for his advice as he had a past association with Tseebo to which Ezra says that he doesn't know what to do or much care about it. Kanan then replies that he does actually care about what happens to Tseebo and that he will never advance as a Jedi if he is not honest with himself at least. Tseebo then suddenly blurted out that the Empire is tracking the Ghost. Zeb buffs his statement and says that they can't track The Ghost while it is in Hyperspace to which Tseebo's Cybernetic Implants gives a holographic representation of the Imperial XX-23 S-Thread tracker's schematics with Tseebo explaining it. After Hera repairs Chopper Hera asks Chopper to Scan the Ghost for the tracker. Chopper then reveals the tracker's location to be the on the Hull of the Phantom. Kanan turns down Hera's suggestion about just dropping the Phantom.
