Deep dives
Episode 1
The ghost crew is sent to investigate the disappearance of Saw Gerrera and his Rebel squad on Geonosis. They encounter battle droids and a Geonosian survivor, leading to a shocking revelation about the Empire's activities on the planet.
Episode 2
The rebels continue their search for Saw Gerrera and encounter him on Geonosis. As they navigate the dangerous underground tunnels, tensions rise and the true nature of Saw's relentless pursuit of the Empire is revealed.
Episode 3
The rebels and Saw Gerrera uncover a Geonosian Queen egg, highlighting the importance of the planet to the Empire. However, differences in approaches and suspicions arise, potentially jeopardizing their mission and alliance.
The Rebels discover poison gas containers and try to escape with them as evidence of the Empire's atrocities.
While on a mission, the Rebels stumble upon a chamber filled with poison gas containers that the Empire used to exterminate the Geonosians. They decide to use the containers as proof of the Empire's actions, but during their escape, they lose the containers. However, they realize that the pictures they took can still be used as propaganda for the Rebel cause.
The Rebels encounter Saw Gerrera and witness his transformation since the Clone Wars.
The Rebels meet Saw Gerrera, a freedom fighter who is now hardened and no longer follows the philosophies of the Jedi. Saw is dedicated to striking back at the Empire and reveals that Geonosis was targeted by the Empire because the Geonosians were the only ones who had feasible plans for the Death Star. The Rebels also learn that the Death Star was moved away from Geonosis to avoid detection.
