Added DiffLines:

* JawDrop: A variation; Chopper is [[OutfitDecoy holding a stormtrooper helmet]] for Ezra's target practise, but when Ezra says he doesn't want to be a Jedi any more, the droid drops the helmet to [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness convey his shock]].


* AbsenteeActor: Zeb only has a brief cameo with no dialogue.


* TheBusCameBack: Hondo Ohnaka, most notably.

to:

* TheBusCameBack: Hondo Ohnaka, most notably.notably, but also Azmorigan.


* TheUntwist: Given [[OpportunisticBastard Hondo’s]] HeelFaceRevolvingDoor history and his overt friendliness with Ezra, the audience expects Hondo to suddenly backstab Ezra. Aside from lying about Vizago’s imprisonment and stealing the ''Phantom'', which are fairly innocuous compared to what Hondo is capable of, he never betrays Ezra and in fact genuinely wants him on his crew, in part due to PetTheDog and in other part due to the PragmaticVillainy of having a [[TheAce Jedi]] on your pirate crew.


* NotSoDifferent: Ezra and Hondo, as lampshaded by the former. Hondo is specifically how Ezra used to be, and who he doesn't want to be anymore.

* NotSoDifferent: NotSoDifferentRemark: Ezra and Hondo, as lampshaded by the former. points out that Hondo is specifically how Ezra used to be, and who he doesn't want to be anymore.

Added DiffLines:

* YouOweMe: Vizago says this to Ezra while demanding his help in reclaiming the ''Broken Horn''.


* OpposedMentors: Rex and Kanan clash again over Ezra.

to:

* OpposedMentors: Rex and Kanan clash again over Ezra. Rex is giving the young boy "soldier training" and trying to get him to rely on his wits and a more military strategy during battle while Kanan wants to give him "Jedi training" and have him rely on the Force and his force-related abilities instead. To say Ezra is confused by what he should do would be correct.

Added DiffLines:

* SaveTheVillain: Ezra saves Hondo from getting ejected into space. Downplayed in that Hondo is something of a NominalHero for most of the episode.

Added DiffLines:

* BetrayalInsurance: Ezra wisely nicks Hondo’s droid disabler in case the latter betrays him.


Added DiffLines:

* CoverBlowingSuperpower: Ezra only resorts to using the Force to save Hondo from getting sucked into space.


Added DiffLines:

* GambitPileup: At the climax, Ezra betrays Hondo by freeing Vizago, who in turn betrays Ezra, while Hondo steals the ''Phantom'' and escapes, only to be forced to return to the ''Ghost'' due to autopilot. In the end, Ezra comes out on top by claiming the power generators and having his debt to Vizago paid.


Added DiffLines:

* HistoryRepeats: Similar to Obi-Wan and Hondo’s [[FriendlyEnemy relationship]] later in the Clone Wars, Ezra and Hondo part on relatively good terms.


Added DiffLines:

* NinjaPirateZombieRobot: Hondo suggests with some excitement that Ezra could be a pirate-Jedi.


Added DiffLines:

* UngratefulBastard: Moments after Ezra frees Vizago, Vizago turns on him.

* {{Foil}}: Hondo is portrayed as this to Vizago, who is more ruthless and malevolent. Notably, in an arc of ''[[WesternAnimations/StarWarsTheCloneWars The Clone Wars]]'' where he dealt with Jedi younglings, Hondo said he liked children. Vizago, on the other hand . . .
