‘Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi’ Endings, Major Ahsoka and Dooku Moments Explained

Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi came to Disney Furthermore on Wednesday, offering us 6 CGI animated shorts in the model of The Clone Wars. Half of the stories are devoted to legendary Jedi Ahsoka Tano (several years right before her alliance with The Mandalorian), when the other people aim on long term Sith Lord Dooku during his time as a Jedi.

They’re written by Clone Wars government producer Dave Filoni, who’s presently operating on the dwell-motion Ahsoka collection which is scheduled to hit Disney Additionally following yr.  

These are all set in the prequel era, decades ahead of the events of authentic Star Wars motion picture A New Hope (and latest live-action display Andor). Let’s use the Force to dive into each and every episode’s SPOILERS.

Daily life and Loss of life

On her homeworld Shili, prior to the activities of The Phantom Menace, an infant Ahsoka (Ashley Eckstein) is taken by saber tooth and seems doomed. When she instinctively tames it with the Power and rides it back again residence, the village elder acknowledges her electric power and declares her a Jedi.

We know from The Clone Wars that she’s introduced into the Jedi Purchase by Learn Plo Koon, and results in being Padawan to Anakin Skywalker.

Justice

Jedi Grasp Dooku (Corey Burton) comes close to killing a corrupt Republic senator following witnessing the struggling of his individuals. His Padawan Qui-Gon Jinn (Micheál Richardson, son of reside-motion Qui-Gon actor Liam Neeson), manages to save the senator by releasing his kidnapped son, whose adore for his father can help Dooku snap out of it. 

This requires area years right before The Phantom Menace, and highlights Dooku’s disillusionment with the Republic (a tale that’s also advised in the audio drama Dooku: Jedi Missing). We also get to see Dooku’s blue lightsaber, which has an awesome curved hilt related to the a single he’ll wield as a Sith.

Choices

Sent to retrieve a dead Jedi’s entire body together with fellow Grasp Mace Windu (T.C. Carson), Dooku takes the mission in the course that final results in a corrupt senator’s demise. He identifies with the rebel team accountable for the incident, echoing its distrust for the Republic and its regulate more than the Jedi. 

Mace is provided the fallen Jedi’s place on the Council, which annoys Dooku. He presumably sees it as Mace taking part in politics to rise within just the Buy and the Republic technique, in the years prior to The Phantom Menace.

The Sith Lord

This one is set all through situations of The Phantom Menace, immediately after Qui-Gon encounters Darth Maul on Tatooine but prior to the return to Naboo. Dooku deletes the planet Kamino from the Jedi archives, hiding the conspiracy to generate the clone military (it will not likely be learned for another ten years, in Assault of the Clones).

He also has his previous come across with Qui-Gon before his former Padawan is slain by Maul.

In the wake of Qui-Gon’s demise, Jedi Council member Yaddle (Bryce Dallas Howard, who directed episodes of The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett) follows Dooku to a solution assembly with Darth Sidious (Ian McDiarmid). Confronted with a alternative involving Jedi and Sith when she’s found out, Dooku sides with Sidious, kills Yaddle and results in being the Sith Lord’s apprentice — Darth Tyranus.

This reveals the destiny of Yaddle, who’s of the identical species as Yoda and Grogu. She formerly only built a temporary overall look in The Phantom Menace and had vanished by Attack of the Clones. It can be unclear if the Jedi ever found out her fate.

This episode also suggests that Sidious took gain of Dooku’s grief over Qui-Gon’s dying to seduce him fully to the dim aspect. He’ll ultimately discard Dooku in favor of Anakin in Revenge of the Sith.

Follow Can make Perfect

Immediately after the situations of The Clone Wars movie, Anakin (Matt Lanter) brings Ahsoka to a clandestine instruction session in which she attempts to deflect clone troopers’ blaster fireplace for as very long as possible in advance of remaining stunned. 

She proceeds that education during the war, and it in the long run enables her to endure Get 66, in which Sidious helps make clone troopers throughout the galaxy to slay their Jedi allies.

This episode was the first just one Filoni wrote for the sequence. It also options a cameo from a youthful Caleb Dume, a Padawan who’ll make it by way of the destruction of the Jedi Buy. He’ll get on the identify Kanan Jarrus and turn into the Jedi hero of Rebels.

Take care of

After the increase of the Galactic Empire (found in Revenge of the Sith and The Clone Wars finale) Ahsoka quietly attends Padmé’s funeral on Naboo, and long run Rebel Alliance chief Bail Organa (Phil LaMarr) presents her a communicator. 

Living in hiding on an agricultural entire world, Ahsoka finds work in farming until she blows her protect by applying the Drive to save a coworker and draws an Imperial Inquisitor (Clancy Brown) to them. 

She slays the Inquisitor with his have red-bladed lightsaber and contacts Bail to rejoin the combat. It is unclear how this fits with the 2016 Ahsoka novel, which tells a similar tale, but any contradictions could be spelled out as an alternate telling.
