Episode 2 of Ahsoka kicks off with Sabine recuperating in her bed, a testament to the resilience of those who survive lightsaber wounds through the abdomen. It seems that such injuries are no longer fatal in this era, and Sabine appears to be on the road to recovery. As she lies there, she confides in Ahsoka that the star map reveals a mysterious pathway connecting two galaxies, but the starting point remains a mystery. Worse still, the droids have erased all traces of her findings, leaving them with few clues.
However, Baylan possesses the map and has even decoded the elusive starting point, leaving our Jedi trailing in his wake. He instructs his apprentice to contact Morgan, informing her of their progress. When Morgan arrives to oversee the proceedings, she reveals a startling revelation: the temple they've discovered was not constructed by the Jedi, but by an enigmatic civilization from a far-off galaxy.
Morgan flexes her powers, manipulating the star map to reveal its secrets. A vast sphere envelopes them, revealing their precise destination - a location where Thrawn himself resides. It's a passageway to Peridea, a journey fraught with unknown dangers.
Meanwhile, Ahsoka wanders slowly around the communication tower, piecing together the remnants of Sabine's battle. Just when it seems she's alone, another droid emerges from hiding, ready to ambush. But Ahsoka is quick on the draw, slicing the droid's head clean off with her lightsaber.
She returns to the hospital with the droid's remains, and Sabine makes a startling discovery: the droid hails from Corellia, the heart of the New Republic's shipyards. This revelation prompts Ahsoka to embark on a mission to Corellia with Hera, though she insists that Sabine remains behind to recuperate.
In a private moment, Hera offers words of encouragement to Sabine, reassuring her that she and Ahsoka need each other in this trying time. And while Ahsoka is away, Baylan assigns his apprentice to oversee the final transport, ensuring that their mission proceeds smoothly.
Before the Apprentice's arrival, Hera delves into the prospect of Sabine rejoining as an Apprentice, sparking a debate with Ahsoka who remains tepid towards the idea. Meanwhile, Hayun engages Sabine in a candid conversation about her training, revealing that she hasn't been keeping up with the pace, adding the stark truth that Ezra had excelled as a Jedi, while Sabine's affinity with the Force remains wanting. This revelation, however, might serve as the catalyst for Sabine to prove Hayun wrong.
Back on Corellia, Ahsoka and Hera stumble upon a startling discovery - assassin droids being refurbished after a lengthy journey through the shipyard. Alarmingly, one of these droids is aboard a ship that's about to take off. Hera promptly decides to tail it, while Ahsoka is left to confront another Sith, clad in a formidable suit of armor. Despite her efforts, the Sith manages to slip away, leaving Ahsoka empty-handed. But Hera isn't. She manages to stealthily plant a tracking device on the transport ship.
With a new mission looming, Sabine embarks on a transformation, dressing in fresh attire and adopting a haircut that honors Ezra. She reunites with Ahsoka, just as Hayun arrives with promising news. A transmission from General Syndulla confirms that the transport ship has been traced to the Denab System, orbiting the planet Seatos.
As the duo prepares to depart, we shift our focus back to the transport ship, where Morgan is confident that they're nearing the completion of their final hyperdrive. Baylan, however, cautions her about the looming threat of Ahsoka, a formidable adversary who's closing in on them.
