History Recap / StarWarsRebelsS2E03AlwaysTwoThereAre

* ItsProbablyNothing: While Kallus is usually clever enough to avoid this trope, here he dismisses the power surge until the 5th Brother senses the Rebels.

* BaitAndSwitch: The Inquisitor [[ThisIsSomethingHesGotToDoHimself insists on going alone to catch our heroes]]. Turns out there's another Inquistor already following up this lead.

* BreakOutTheMuseumPiece: The main objective of the crew in this episode is to salvage some old medical supplies from an abandoned Republic medical station. [[spoiler: They succeed.]]

* DramaticIrony: Ezra is surprised that the Inquisitors already know about Ahsoka Tano. Vader realized she was with the Rebels in [[Recap/StarWarsRebelsTheSiegeOfLothal "The Siege of Lothal"]] after sensing her presence.

* TheGadfly: When Kanan is testing Ezra on his telekinesis, using Chopper as the test object, Sabine encourages Chopper to clamp himself to the floor.

* StealthMentor: It's mostly offscreen, but Rex tricks Kanan into demonstrating discipline by challenging him to a dejarik game.

** When the others go to search the station while he stays behind to repair the corrupted files, Chopper hears a noise and says, [[OnceAnEpisode "I've got a ''bad'' feeling about this.]]

** When the Inquisitors show up, Sabine and Ezra have this reaction.

** The Fifth Brother briefly attacks the Seventh Sister for [[KillSteal keeping him from "his" kill]], at which point she responds that he lacks any foresight for planning. It doesn't help he didn't know the Seventh Sister was on the case.

-->'''Seventh Sister:''' Once we have the others, we'll dispose of them both . . . ''very'' slowly.

* AdultFear: Kanan and Hera are horrified when they learn that Ezra, Sabine and Zeb just ran into ''two'' Inquisitors and they weren't there to protect them.

* TheVamp: The [[EvilIsSexy Seventh Sister]] certainly has a different ''style'' than her [[EvilIsHammy former]] and [[DumbMuscle current]] comrades. She noticeably strokes Ezra’s face and calls him “cute.”

* BondVillainStupidity: When the Fifth Brother manages to knock out Sabine and Zeb, he grabs Sabine but leaves the Mimic Droids to deal with Zeb. Predictably, Zeb destroys those and arranges a trap for the Inquisitors so he can rescue Ezra and Sabine. [[FridgeBrilliance Although since the droids belong to the Seventh Sister,]] [[BlameGame the Fifth Brother likely left Zeb to the droids on purpose]] [[NeverMyFault so that the Seventh Sister takes the blame for not having competently programmed droids.]]

* DestructionEqualsOffSwitch: Ezra is captured by the Insquitors and dragged back, making Sabine rush back to try to save him. He stabs the control panel to a door in order to cut her off and prevent her from being captured along with him. The Fifth Brother just takes a detour and catches her anyway.

* CantKillYouStillNeedYou: As lampshaded by Ezra, the Seventh Sister isn't willing to kill him until he's [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefullness of no further use]]. The Fifth Brother was immediately willing to kill him, but then again, he seems pretty shortsighted. Although the Fifth Brother may have simply been attempting to [[KillSteal deny his comrade the credit for Ezra's capture.]]

* AdultFear: Kanan and Hera are crushed when they learn that Ezra, Sabine and Zeb just ran into ''two'' Inquisitors, when they weren't there to protect them.
* AirVentPassageway: When they need to get to Chopper quickly, Ezra suggests using the vents. He and Sabine do just fine, but Zeb gets stuck. When Sabine makes her way back, he's still stuck in there.

* BrickJoke: Early in the episode, Ezra and Zeb charge right by a room full of medical supplies, being too focused on their competition to notice. When the Fifth Brother uses Sabine's explosives to knock her and Zeb out, Zeb lands in that room. He nabs a crate on the way out.

* CantKillYouStillNeedYou: As lampshaded by Ezra, the Seventh Sister isn't willing to kill him until he's of no further use. The Fifth Brother was, but then he seems pretty shortsighted. Although the Fifth Brother may have simply been attempting to [[KillSteal deny his comrade the credit for Ezra's capture.]]
* ChekhovsSkill: After beating Zeb at space-chess in the beginning of the episode, Rex encourages him to [[GeniusBruiser use his head, not just his brawn]]. Come the climax and Zeb pulls a fast one on two Inquisitors and saves the day.
* CombatPragmatist: Rex encourages Kanan and Ezra to take a page out of [[TheAce his former]] [[Characters/StarWarsAnakinSkywalker CO’s]] book of combining the Force with clever pragmatism.

* CurbStompBattle: The Inquisitors make short work of Ezra, Sabine, and Zeb. It's only because the Fifth Brother was too lazy to finish Zeb himself that they escape.

* DramaticIrony: Ezra is surprised that the Inquisitors already know about Ahsoka Tano. Vader realized she was with the Rebels in [[Recap/StarWarsRebelsTheSiegeOfLothal "The Siege of Lothal"]].

* NiceJobFixingItVillain: The Fifth Brother’s arrogance prevents him from bringing Kallus’s ship as backup and from finishing Zeb off himself.

** Ezra blocks the Inquisitors by stabbing the door controls with Sabine on the other side, just as Kanan did in [[Recap/StarWarsRebelsS1E11CallToAction "Call to Action"]]. And afterwards, the Seventh Sister pins him to the door with the Force, just like the Grand Inquisitor did to Kanan.

* DestructionEqualsOffSwitch: Ezra stabs the control panel to a door so the Inquisitors can't follow Sabine, who's on the other side. The Fifth Brother just takes a detour and catches her anyway.

* EvilPowerVacuum: The Inquisitor of Season 1 was the Grand Inquisitor, and with his death the other Inquisitors are taking advantage of the power vacuum left to try and get a better position.

** When Kanan and Rex start squabbling with each other, Ezra decides to go with Sabine and Zeb.

** Kanan and Rex really don't get along, especially since Rex is also trying to mentor Ezra and is critical of Kanan's technique.
