Ezra uses his ability to make connections through the Force with a wandering pod of space whales known as the purrgil as the Rebels attempt to capture fuel from the Empire.

On this fully armed and operational episode, we discuss:

• Why we like the purrgils,
• Also, why Hera doesn’t like the purrgils and what that says about her,
• Ezra’s ability to make connections with creatures in Star Wars,
• The modified TIE fighters that appeared in this episode,
• How this episode was influenced by Ralph McQuarrie’s work,
• How this episode then influenced later The Clone Wars content, and
• What this episode says about the history of hyperspace.
