Well, the telegraphed the fuck out of her survival. Grand Inquisitor was stabbed exactly the same way, and then he leans down and tells her that "revenge is wonderful motivation for survival." You might as well have stopped the episode and put text on the screen that says, "Reva will now survive so that she can seek revenge against the Grand Inquisitor, Obi-Wan, and/or Vader."

When he said it to her I assumed he was referring to her getting stabbed as a kid and surviving, then trying to exact her revenge on Vader.

There are a lot of people in this series surviving gut stabs with lightsabers.

Understandable, but you'd think they might learn to issue a death blow.

I think she'll end up dying right there. That sense that Obi-wan got will be enough to scare him to go back to Tatooine and stay there for the remainder of his days protecting Luke. Not sure if Reva ever died or told anyone.

Didn’t think of that.

Obi wan senses something serious aka he’s fucked up leaving that communicator

Then says he’s sure it will be fine.

So he knows she’s died?

All the imperials have British accents. Palpatine had a thing for British accents. Anakins voice modulator was programmed with a British accent when they put him the Vader suit in the revenge of the sith.
Wait, what? He’s supposed to have a British accent? I’ve never heard that ever. Just a “distinguished” American one. Like Kelsey Grammar or something like that.

Fuck yeah. He doesn’t even need a lightsaber and never uses his own at all. Fucking badass.

I had a chuckle when Auggie Ben Doggie listened to his hologram voicemail about the most important secret in the galaxy in a room WITH NO DOOR.

Not the Imperials. Of course they, and Leia, had British accents. I’m talking about Vader. Not once have I heard him and thought “wow, Vader’s a Brit!”
