[8.5/10] The best of these shorts yet! It’s cool to see glimpses of the Battle of Jakku, and to watch the Freemakers doing what they do best. I’m still not crazy about Rowan having retrieved the kyber saber, but him and his sibs serving as Lt. Valyria’s emergency pit crew in the mdist of the battle is some cool action. It’s also a nice use of Roger, as his “Am I the first Jedi droid?” bit is amusing, and that whole sequence is not only visually exciting, but implies that the Freemakers handled the star destroyer that Rey would one day scavenge.
I also appreciate the reveal as to who Roger was talking to. I like the idea that Zander had a daughter who would go on to join the resistance (presumably her mother is Becky Smoochenbacher?). And Kordi being a Senator is pretty cool too (although is the implication that she gets blown by Starkiller Base?).
Either way, a cool outing that ties the Freemakers’ past to All-Stars’ present!
