Outline

Ezra has a vivid dream about his parents, which he is convinced is a vision which will lead him to discover their fate. Hera and Kanan reveal that they have secretly spent months investigating Imperial prisons, and have heard about a recent prison break. As the Ghost prepares to return to Lothal to investigate Ezra’s visions, the Imperial fleet arrives at Garel based on the intelligence from the Seventh Sister’s probe droid. Ezra and Kanan escape to Lothal in the Phantom, while the Ghost remains behind to assist the escape of the rebel fleet. On Lothal, Ezra follows a Loth-cat which appeared in his dream to Prisoner X-10, one of the escapees who is the former Governor of Lothal, Ryder Azadi. Azadi tells Ezra that his parents heard his broadcast and it had inspired them to organise the prison break in which he had escaped, however Ezra’s parents had been killed during the breakout. While saddened at his parents’ deaths, Ezra takes solace in that they heard his message, and Kanan comforts him by telling him that his parents live on inside him.
