We have TIE fighters roaring past First Order Star Destroyers and looming over them is the Starkiller Base, a new opening for the show, there is Commander Pyre and Captain Phasma talking to Kragan, the pirate captain, in hologram form.  His attack has not put Captain Doza in a panic and Kragan counters with asking for triple the money.  Commander Pyre says in exchange, Kragan has to take something “close” to Doza, Torra?!  At Colossus Base, Synara is contacted by the Kragan hologram, he sends over two pirates, Drell (David Shaughnessy) and Valik (Jennifer Hale), in a container.  Kragan wants Synara to take the container to Doza’s tower so she can “come home.”  At Zee’s place, Tam and Torra are playing darts when Kaz sees Synara.  Torra brings up the new Drone Blaster game and invites her friends including Synara.  At her room, she starts using her blaster, while security droids pass in the hall.  Synara blasts all of the drones impressing everyone.  She says her father took her hunting.  Kaz’s turn comes up empty.  Synara gets a signal and excuses herself.  Torra gives her security code.

Drell shocks four of the security droids with a grenade. Buggles, Torra’s pet, growls as the shadows the pirates fall on Torra.  Synara contacts hologram Kragan angry at his plans.  A droid informs Captain Doza that security droids are deactivated and Torra s missing.  Kaz runs into Synara who tells him that Torra is in trouble.  They see the pirates on speeder bikes flying away in the night.  Torra kicks Drell in the head.

Instead of destroying the pirates that kidnapped her in the first place?   Torra hugs her father.   Vonreig says that some First Order stormtroopers will stay.  Kaz sees the shuttle at the base.   Hologram Kragan says the deal is off.  Kaz checks on Synara and BB-9 brings his suspicions about Synara.  This is an average episode that furthers the First Order story so it seems like the last two episodes were filler.  

Three Lightsabers out of Five!
