History Recap / StarWarsRebelsS3E07TheWynkahthuJob

-->'''AP-5:''' I am estimating mission success at 38.5%.\\
'''Kanan:''' 38.5%? This was ''your'' plan!\\
'''AP-5:''' I know. I calculated that without me, this mission would be at 0%.

* BreatherEpisode: It gets debatable when the Sentry Droids show up and start complicating things, though.

** Hondo kept the Lambda-class shuttle he made off with in "Steps Into Shadow", having given it a new paintjob.
* CrazyEnoughToWork: When asked why they'll succeed where the Empire failed in retrieving the transport's cargo, Hondo says they have something the Empire doesn't: desperation! Hera admits that he's right. The Empire would write off the cargo in a heartbeat, but they can't afford to.

* EliteMooks: The Sentry Droids are definitely a cut above regular stormtroopers in terms of posing a threat to the Rebels.

** The Sentry Droids are deliberately modeled after the Dark Troopers from ''VideoGame/DarkForces''. Interestingly, the Dark Troopers were directly already canonized through ''VideoGame/{{Commander}}''--which takes place shortly after the events of ''Film/ANewHope''--suggesting that the Sentry Droids may be predecessors to them.

* BossInMookClothing: The droids that take the appearance of the feared and powerful [[VideoGame/DarkForcesSaga Dark Troopers]]. While not as heavily armed or as fast as Dark Troopers, unlike Separatist droids, not only can these sentries ''survive'' multiple blaster shots, they nearly kill Ezra and Zeb by shifting their targets from the Jedi with the lightsaber to the winch lifting them out of the ship.

* BigNo: Sabine, when Zeb and Ezra's winch cable is severed while they're halfway to the ''Ghost''.

* BreatherEpisode: It gets debatable when the Sentry Droids show up, though.

** The crew (minus Ezra, who won't hate Hondo anytime soon) still don't like Hondo, ''especially'' because he ditched them (and nearly got Ezra killed) [[Recap/StarWarsRebelsStepsIntoShadow last time]].

** Azmorigan notes that he still technically owns Hera from [[Recap/StarWarsRebelsS1E09IdiotsArray "Idiot's Array"]], and how she hit him with a tray. She's not amused.

** Ezra notes that recently, the crew hasn't been trusting him (the mission to Malachor, the situation at Reklam Station, and so forth), and he wants to get that trust back.

* FacePalm: Zeb's reaction to Azmorigan panicking.

** When Hondo claims he would never abandon his crew, Ezra rolls his eyes.

* ImStandingRightHere: Hondo tells the crew they'd have to be blind not to see the opportunity they have, and then promptly remembers Kanan and starts apologizing. Kanan just snarks that he's actually interested in what they have to say, to which Hondo replies that he's glad someone is seeing things his way. Hondo then catches himself just as Kanan shoots him another "glare".

** When Hondo mentions that he tried attacking the Imperial freighter (and losing), he notes how crazy it was. Ezra offhandedly mentions that they do it all the time. Hondo, being Hondo, tries to say he does it too, before realizing what he's saying and then asking if Ezra was actually serious. Upon confirmation he immediately starts to "negotiate further jobs".

** Zeb threatens to tear Hondo's limbs off like Wookiees tend to do. (Fitting, considering that the Lasat species is modelled after concept art for Chewbacca, a Wookiee.)

** Well, not hero, but Azmorigan shooting down a sentry droid activates all the others. And he didn't even succeed in putting the first one down.
* NotHelpingYourCase: Ezra wants to get the crew's trust back... by bringing in Hondo ''and'' Azmorigan, and getting them into pirate shenanigans again.

* TheBusCameBack: For Hondo, last seen in "Steps Into Shadow", and Azmorigan, last seen in [[Recap/StarWarsRebelsS2E04BrothersOfTheBrokenHorn "Brothers of the Broken Horn"]].

* EliteMooks: The Sentry Droids are definitely a cut above regular stormtroopers in terms of threat the Rebels.

* BossInMookClothing: The droids that take the appearance of the feared and powerful [[VideoGame/DarkForcesSaga Dark Troopers]]. While not as heavily armed or as fast as Dark Troopers, unlike Separatist droids, not only can these sentries ''survive'' multiple blaster shots, they nearly kill Ezra and Zeb by shifting their targets from the Jedi with the lightsaber, to the winch lifting them out of the ship.

* BigNo: Sabine when Zeb and Ezra's winch cable is severed while they're halfway to the ''Ghost''.

** AP has a major role again and the rebels use his former ship from [[Recap/StarWarsRebelsS2E17TheForgottenDroid his debut episode]].
** The rebels are still looking for proton bombs, as they expressed interest in them back in "[[Recap/StarWarsRebelsS3E04TheLastBattle The Last Battle]]", presumably to bomb Lothal's Imperial factories as stated in "[[Recap/StarWarsRebelsStepsIntoShadow Steps Into Shadow]]".
** Azmorigan notes that he still technically owns Hera from "[[Recap/StarWarsRebelsS1E09IdiotsArray Idiot's Array]]" and how she hit him with a tray. She's not amused.
** Zeb in a leadership role and in fact a former Captain of the Honor Guard was first brought up in "Legends of the Lasat."
** Ezra's attitude problems come back, after being explored in "Steps Into Shadow", "Holocrons of Fate", and "The Antilles Extraction."

* ContinuityNod: Ezra notes that recently, the crew hasn't been trusting him (the mission to Malachor, the situation at Reklam Station, and so forth), and he wants to get that trust back.

** When Hondo mentions that he tried attacking the Imperial Freighter (and losing) he notes how crazy it was. Ezra offhandedly mention that they do it all the time. Hondo, being Hondo, tries to say he does it too, before realizing what he's saying and then asking if Ezra was actually serious. Upon confirmation he immediately starts to "negotiate further jobs".

-->'''AP''': I am estimating mission success at 38.5%.\\
'''Kanan''': 38.5%? This was ''your'' plan!\\
'''AP''': I know; I calculated that without me, this mission would be at 0%.

* ShaggyDogStory: For Hondo and Azmorigan, not the rebels. He was looking forward to a cargo filled with treasure, but the crew prioritizes getting the bombs out first and the awakening of the droids means they only have time to get one crate out. Which turned out to be Melch, hidden in the crate so the two wouldn't leave him behind.

'''AP''': I know, I calculated it without me, and this mission would be at 0%.

* KickTheDog: For the entire episode, Ezra takes shots at Zeb's leadership for the mission, one of the prominent examples being calling him "Captain" -- and since Zeb ''personally'' confided in him why he doesn't like being called that, Ezra's behavior definitely qualifies as this. [[KarmaHoudini What's jarring is that Ezra doesn't apologize for his behavior and instead tries a weak complement to branch away from the entire incident]], but it seems that Zeb isn't so quick to let it pass.
