* MythologyGag: The red-marked TIE Interceptor of Capt. Skerris is a reference to the similarly red-highlighted elite 181st TIE Interceptor Squadron of Legends continuity. It was also led by [[TheRedBaron Baron Soontir Fel]], the WorthyOpponent of said continuity's Wedge.

* BlackDudeDiesFirst: Of Sabine and the three escaping pilots, it's the dark-skinned one with an unfamiliar name that bites it when Pryce orders one of them killed. Technically not the first to die, as six Phoenix Squadron pilots and a whole transport go down before him, but he's the first named character.

* LuredIntoATrap: Pryce arranges for the cadets to go on a training exercise after an extended lockdown in which Kallus was attempting to root out the potential defectors. Seeing this as their best chance, Sabine and the defectors take it. Then Pryce triggers charges on their fighers which separate the solar panels and leave the cockpits without power, while the TIE Interceptors sent along force the Rebellion cruiser to retreat.
* MakeAnExampleOfThem: After Sabine's first escape attempt is foiled by Pryce, she orders one of their four fighters to be destroyed. Rake is the one that loses the lottery.



* MistakenForSpecialGuest: When Sabine reveals her allegiance and identity to Wedge, he believes that the Rebels have heard his transmission for help. Sabine doesn't bother to correct him, implying that she might think that the new Fulcrum is him. Downplayed, however, since solving the mystery isn't their current priority and it doesn't matter at the moment who the real Fulcrum is.

Added DiffLines:

* CombatPragmatist: Sabine and Pryce spend their fight slamming each other into metal and trying to electrocute each other until Sabine succeeds. Blink and you miss it but Sabine also attempts a GroinAttack.

Added DiffLines:

* ElectricTorture: Pryce intends to inflict this on Sabine. Sabine breaks out before it can happen, and the device is used to take Pryce out.


Added DiffLines:

* IfYoureSoEvilEatThisKitten: Part of the TIE simulator involves shooting down a disabled transport while it's transmitting surrender and that there are wounded aboard. Cadets who hesitate or refuse are then "killed" by the Ghost, to demonstrate that pilots must put their orders above everything else.


Added DiffLines:

* InternalReveal: Partially. Sabine is surprised when Kallus mentions that he owes a debt to Zeb, suggesting that Zeb never told the crew about the events on Bahryn.


Added DiffLines:

* RememberThatYouTrustMe: A variation in that it's another character doing so, but Kanan repeatedly reminds Ezra that he trusts Sabine, and should stop worrying so much about her.
