Welcome to episode 41.5 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: Kindred and Crawler Commandeers. On this Scoundrel's Special Edition, Jay, Dennis, and Darth Taxus discuss the Rebels' recovery of the hypderdrive and their escape from the Empire and the impending attack on Lothal. First, they start with "Kindred." When Ezra, Zeb, and Jai Kell attempt a recovery of the hyperdrive, Thrawn's Noghri agent Rukh tracks them down and attacks. Even though they get the hypderdrive to Hera, they still face Imperial pursuit. That is when Governor Pryce sends in the TIE bombers and the loth-wolves show up.

Once they escape the Empire with the aid of the wolves, Ezra, Kanan, Zeb, and Sabine need a way of contacting Hera and the Rebellion High Command in "Crawler Commandeers." Although the Empire jammed transmission off the surface, Sabine finds a local contact. Upon investigating, they discover an ore crawler with a communications array that might just solve their problems. However, a Trandoshan captain and foreman stand in their way. Plus, Vizago, their scoundrel friend, is aboard. Meanwhile, on Yavin IV, Hera campaigns for an attack on the TIE Defender factory on Lothal.

The discussion in this episode includes the abilities of the Loth-Wolves and their connection to Kanan and the planet, Kanan and Hera's growing relationship, Hera's interaction with the Rebel High Command, and Rukh's appearance. Who was pleased by this episode and who wanted more? Jay, Dennis, and Taxus discuss this and more in this Scoundrel's Special Edition.

Welcome to episode 40.75 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: Occupation and Defender. On this Scoundrel's Special Edition, Jay, Dennis, and Darth Taxus discuss the Rebels' return to Lothal. First, they start with "The Occupation." When the Rebellion receives a transmission from Lothal concerning the Empire's TIE Defender project, Ezra and the rest of the crew of the Ghost vow to return to their home planet. However, getting to Lothal is a challenge. Therefore, the group hires a smuggler and disguises themselves. In addition, their cover doesn't last long.

Once they rendezvous with their contact on Lothal, they investigate the Empire's project in the episode "Flight of the Defender." Sabine isn't content to just report intel to the Rebellion, she wants the TIE Defender's flight data recorder. However, that decision puts her and Ezra squarely in Thrawn's sites. Plus, there is a little issue of  the white loth-cat and the  loth-wolf and his role in the Force. Why is Ezra the only one that can see him? What did he mean by "Dume?" Jay, Dennis, and Taxus discuss this and more in this week's episode.
