We have been waiting so anxiously for the arrival of Ahsoka, and today we are breaking the first episode down scene by scene to discuss all of our thoughts, theories, easter eggs you may have missed, as well as how the events of Ahsoka connect to the rest of what's happening in the Star Wars galaxy.

0:30.0	Wow. What a premiere Asoka had. I don't know what I guess I was expecting

2:11.7	Yeah.
2:12.2	You know, as we go throughout these breakdowns, I'm sure we'll talk about any sort of like,
2:17.8	well, the pacing might have been off a little bit here and there, but I do kind of
