Sabine tries to boost the power of a transmitter, but it's not strong enough to reach Hera. Suddenly, the rebels pick up something transmitting nearby.
Scouting the origin of the signal, they find an ore crawler. Luckily, it's equipped with a long-range communcations array -- one which can reach Hera at Yavin 4.
Back on Yavin 4, the rebels inspect the TIE defender elite data that Hera delivered. They are unable to find a weakness, so Hera proposes an assault to wipe out the TIE factory on Lothal. Senator Organa is unconvinced it is the right time.
The rebels approach the massive ore crawler and Sabine blasts off to infiltrate, taking out the security droids.
The crew sneaks into the control bay, apprehending the slippery captain and taking command of the vessel. Kanan and Zeb go to check out a signal in the rear of the crawler while Sabine gets to work on the transmitter.
Kanan and Zeb make a surprising discovery: slaves, including one Cikatro Vizago. The foreman soon attacks, though Zeb holds off the agile Trandoshan. Meanwhile at the rebel base, Hera implores the leaders to strike the Empire at Lothal.
The Empire arrives to investigate. Vizago acts as the captain and covers for the rebels, while Zeb pretends to be the foreman. It works.
The original captain, however, has sabotaged power to the long-range transmitter. Ezra seeks him out, and after a scuffle, the captain slips on Ezra's lightsaber and falls into the reactor core's fiery furnace.
Now free, the slaves decide to join the Rebellion. Vizago, too -- with a request to be the captain of the Rebellion's new ore crawler.
Inside, Sabine receives a transmission from Hera. Rebel command has authorized the attack.
