The fourth episode of Ahsoka, "Fallen Jedi," hit Disney+ on Tuesday evening and those of you who have been waiting for the series to pick up the pace will have noticed there was a lot going on.
Lucasfilm has since released a handful of spoiler stills from the Peter Ramsey-helmed instalment (via SFFGazette.com), featuring the title character alongside Sabine Wren, the villainous Morgan Eslbeth and Baylan Skoll (Ray Stevenson continues to be a highlight), and plenty of lightsaber action.
In the episode, Elsbeth manages to activate the Eye of Sion. She's finally figured out the path that will transport her to the neighbouring Galaxy Grand Admiral Thrawn has been forced to call home since vanishing at the end of Star Wars Rebels alongside Ezra Bridger.

Elsbeth and her allies will need to be careful to avoid the "void between the galaxies," an idea established in the Expanded Universe canon. However, they successfully set off on this mission to bring Thrawn back and unleash a war she hopes is going to see the Heir to the Empire put an end to the fledgling New Republic once and for all.
When that hyperspace ring blasts off, the Ghost is nearby and young Jacen turns to his mother, Hera Syndulla, to say he's "got a bad feeling" about what just happened. With that, it's all but confirmed the son of Jedi Knight Kanan Jarrus is Force-sensitive, leaving us to wonder why Ahsoka is trying to train Sabine instead of him.
Then again, Ahsoka is no longer a Jedi and is teaching the Mandalorian to use the Force, not follow their ancient ways. We'd also say it's pretty likely Hera doesn't want her son to head down that path, especially after what she saw happen to his father, Kanan Jarrus.
Take a closer look at those stills, along with a new promo for Ahsoka's latest episode, below.
Set after the fall of the Empire, Ahsoka follows the former Jedi Knight Ahsoka Tano as she investigates an emerging threat to a vulnerable galaxy.
In addition to Rosario Dawson in the title role, the series stars Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Sabine Wren, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Hera Syndulla, the late Ray Stevenson as Baylan Skoll, Ivanna Sakhno as Shin Hati, Diana Lee Inosanto as Morgan Elsbeth, David Tennant as Huyang, Lars Mikkelsen as Grand Admiral Thrawn, and Eman Esfandi appearing as Ezra Bridger.
Ahsoka was written by Dave Filoni, who executive produces alongside Jon Favreau, Kathleen Kennedy, Colin Wilson, and Carrie Beck. Directors include Filoni, Steph Green, Peter Ramsey, Jennifer Getzinger, Geeta Vasant Patel, and Rick Famuyiwa.
The first four episodes of Ahsoka are now streaming on Disney+.
