The Clone Wars S7E12 Victory and Death

The finale picks up immediately where Shattered left off and the chaos is relentless all the way through to the end. Rex and Ahsoka fight off wave after wave of clone troopers as Maul wreaks havok on his way to the engine room, There he uses all his anger and hatred he can muster and rends both hyper drive units thus dooming all onboard. I'll admit he seemed noticably more powerful than ever in this scene, but I suspended my disbelief by chalking it up to his desperation not to be brought back anywhere near Darth Sidious.

As the ship drifts into the gravitational pull of a nearby moon Rex and Ahsoka find their path to the one operational shuttle cut off by Commander Jesse and a sea of troopers. Maul capitalizes on the opportunity and races to take it.

And this is the last time we see Maul till Ezra finds him on Malachor.

This episode is strictly Ahsoka and Rex's story, there is no interlacing with Revenge of the Sith...we all know what's going taking place elsewhere in the Galaxy.

Suffice to say  Ahsoka and Rex survive the plummeting Republic Cruiser, the final ten minutes there isn't one word of dialog which exemplifies the melancholy atmosphere. 

The final scene was beautiful in it's simplicity, yet it is left wide open to interpretation to the viewer. Who do we see holding Ahsoka's lightsaber? Darth Vader or Anakin Skywalker? What is he thinking about when he ignites the lightsaber? Anger? Regret? Sadness?

 Now to re watch Star Wars Rebels!
