Obi-Wan Kenobi Season 1 Episode 6: The Force and Conscience Awakened on Tatooine [Star Wars]

In Episode 6/6 of the Obi-Wan Kenobi series, Obi Wan decides to use a small spaceship to leave the Path's main ship in order to disperse Dark Vader's pursuit; and that is also the way for him to return to the planet Tatooine because he knows that the little Luke Skywalker is in danger right now.

Dark Vader catches up with Obi Wan and they have their second duel. This time, it seems that all the Force in Obi Wan has really recovered and the fight between them goes through some dramatic twists, but overall they are of equal strength.

Obi Wan cuts off part of Dark Vader's mask and reveals his disfigured face. He is shocked and saddened by the current state of his former friend and disciple.

No matter how much he hates Obi Wan, Dark Vader still considers him as "Master" and is aware that "Anakin Skywalker died because he killed himself, no other one did that".

Meanwhile, after learning that Luke Skywalker is the son of Dark Vader, Reva manages to go to Owen's house with the purpose of killing the boy as a way of revenge. However, just before taking the fatal action on the boy, she changes her mind in time.

Owen allows Obi Wan to meet Luke - he greets the boy "Hello there". Perhaps the process of training Luke into an outstanding Jedi would begin here.

Who is Qui-Gon Jinn?


At the end of the episode and season, on a journey in the middle of the desert, Obi Wan encounters Qui-Gon Jinn's Ghost Force and it seems that the two will discuss a plan to rebuild their forces to overthrow the Empire.

Qui-Gon Jinn, played by Liam Neeson, is a powerful Jedi Master who is Obi Wan's master and also the one who sees the Force potential within Anakin - then a young slave.

Qui-Gon was mortally wounded during his duel with the Sith Lord Darth Maul. In his final moments, he made Obi-Wan promise to train Anakin. At the end of Revenge of the Sith, Qui-Gon learned how to become a Ghost Force after death, and taught that method to Yoda and later Obi-Wan.

Thanks to Qui-Gon's method, later in the Star Wars sequels, we often meet the Ghost Force of the deceased Jedi such as: Yoda, Obi-Wan, and the next generation Leia and Luke Skywalker.

Will the Obi Wan Kenobi series have Season 2?


The Obi Wan Kenobi series basically focuses on the journey to rescue little Princess Leia, and with it the hateful and painful  encounters between Obi Wan and the Dark Vader more than 10 years after the events of Revenge of the Sith. The story focuses more on Leia than on Luke as many initially surmised.

According to information from Disney, the series set a record as "Most watched TV show on Disney+ in its opening week", on a global scale, throughout the history of Disney+. It's quite a record.

The series is set 10 years before the New Hope (Star Wars: A New Hope - Episode IV), so there would be many topics to explore if it is renewed for season 2. However, so far Disney has made no official confirmation whether there would be a season 2 of Obi Wan Kenobi.

In some interviews, both actors Hayden (Anakin/Dark Vader) and Ewan (Obi Wan) have expressed their willingness to participate if season 2 is to be green-lighted.

Obi-Wan Kenobi Series: The Current Face of Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker [Star Wars]

During the first 4 episodes of the Obi Wan Kenobi 2022 series on Disney+, the Dark Vader character always appeared with a black helmet  covering his deformed face, which made fans think that they would not be able to see the present face of actor Hayden in this series. But that has changed in Episode/Part 5.

Hayden has appeared in his full form, shape and face at the age of 41 in several flashbacks, in which Dark Vader (still the Jedi Anakin at that time) was practicing lightsabers with Obi Wan – then his mentor and master. The flashback may take place before the events of Star War III – Revenge of the Sith (2005).

Instead of using CGI effects, the filmmakers seemed to keep the current faces of both actors Hayden (Anakin) and Ewan (Obi Wan); only makeup to make them look younger.

When filming Revenge of the Sith (2005), Hayden born in 1981 was at the age of 24.

Dark Vader at the time of the Obi Wan Kenobi series is at the peak of his power with the Force that can be called unmatched in the galaxy, but also a cunning, brutal and bloodthirsty villain.

The attack of the Stormtroopers led by Reva as the newly-appointed Grand Inquisitor result in the death of many in the Path network, including Tala.

Obi Wan rekindles Reva's feud with the Dark Vader to turn her against him. In the past, Dark Vader, then Anakin, attacked the Jedi temple and killed all the young disciples at the time - those were Reva's only relatives.

Understanding Dark Vader's personality and pattern of thoughts, Obi Wan has effective strategies to deal with the opponent's plans.

Dark Vader during this period has developed the Force to a remarkable extent, powerful enough to pull down even a spaceship taking off; he can bare-handed defeat Reva who are equipped with with doubled lightsabers.

The truth is finally revealed: The Grand Inquisitor is still alive. It was all just a show of Dark Vader to use Reva to serve him wholeheartedly.

Before leaving, Obi Wan drops his intercom at Jabiim, making Reva to learn the identity of Luke Skywalker.

Third Sister Reva tries to use the Force to make Leia to reveal the location of the Path network, but fails because the little girl's spirit is quite strong. After using other enticements without success, Reva decides to apply torture on Leia.

Tala must appear to distract Reva, giving Obi a chance to rescue Leia.

Obi, Tala, and Lia manage to escape outside the fortress and are stopped by Reva. In the desperate situation, they are rescued by the two airships; but one is blown up by Reva. They return to base without knowing that Reva has embedded a navigation chip in Leia's pet android.

The episode also reveals that the Inquisitor's Fortress is also the place to keep the mummy bodies of the Jedi they murdered. It's a Jedi Cemetery. 

Tala often calls Obi by the intimate name Ben.

In the Star Wars sequels, Leia later names her son Ben Solo possibly to show her love and respect for Obi Wan. When growing up, Ben Solo was taken over by the dark side of the Force, ravaged Luke Skywalker's Jedi Temple and became another evil version of his grandfather Anakin - Dark Vader.
