History Recap / StarWarsResistanceS1E19NoEscapePartI

* DisneyVillainDeath: CB-23 disposes of a First Order ball droid by tricking it into rolling into an open elevator shaft.

* TheAllegedCar: The Fireball ''finally'' defies this trope. Kaz flies it into battle and kicks all the ass.
* BigDamnHeroes: The pirates, of all people, under Sindara's leadership, show up to help the Colossus fight off the First Order.

* WhatDoesThisButtonDo: Neeku has a bit of trouble while looking for the button to purge the flooded hallway where Kaz and CB-23 are fighting two scuba troopers, including turning off the lights for a good portion of the Colossus.

* CryingWolf: Tam believes that Yeager has nothing to do with the Resistance since he chose to leave his life as a racer and military pilot to live in the Outer Rim, but [[TheCorrupter Agent Tierny]] convinces her that he's a Resistance spy with Kaz, having quit his job and chosen to live in the Outer Rim as a cover for his spy mission like Kaz. Tierny then proceeds to show a holorecording of Yeager lying that he was responsible for all of Kaz's Resistance activities, and that he recruited him. We know that Yeager was telling the truth about why he moved to the Colossus, and Tierny is right that he's an ally of the Resistance, but she twists it to get Tam to doubt him for lying to her.

* FalseConfession: Yeager gives one claiming that he was a Resistance spy all along, that he flew the ''Fireball'' into Sector Epsilon 51-3, and that he recruited Kaz. Unfortunately, Agent Tierny then uses it to turn Tam against him. Tam actually guesses that Yeager is lying when she sees the recording, but since he's not there in person to defend himself, Tierny is able to manipulate her.

In engineering, Kaz lays out a plan to rescue Tam and Yeager from the tower, steal a shuttle, and go to Hosnian Prime. Neeku is skeptical, particularly as, as Kel and Eila point out, there's all the other residents of the platform to worry about. Kaz has a solution for that, too, revealing that as his father is a senator with connections to the military, they'll be able to return to Castilon with reinforcements. Neeku thinks that claim is a joke, too, and, laughing, suggests that the next thing Kaz was about to say is that he grew up extremely wealthy. It was. In the Aces Lounge, Tam is impressed by the delicious meal Agent Tierny's had served to her, noting that she can't remember the last time she ate this well. When the agent asks about Kaz, Tam reiterates that she didn't know anything about him being a spy. Tierny then turns the conversation to Yeager, and the mechanic says that there's no way her boss is part of this, since he moved to the Outer Rim to get ''away'' from the military. In response, Tierny plays a recording of Yeager "confessing" that he was a Resistance spy all along, who recruited Kaz, and that he was the one who flew the ''Fireball'' into restricted territory. Tam, shocked, says that Yeager must be lying to take the blame off Kaz. Tierny says otherwise, though, insisting that ''both'' of them are spies and always have been, and that they didn't tell her this because they knew they couldn't trust her. Meanwhile, Torra enters her bedroom and sends Buggles in search of Kaz.

* DownerEnding: The episode ends with General Hux ordering the destruction of the Hosnian System.

* WhamLine: Anyone who's seen ''The Force Awakens'' will likely start getting an OhCrap feeling when they hear Hux's voice say "Today...is the ''end'' of the Republic!"
