Ahsoka steps in to help Sabine rehone her lightsaber skills, replacing Huyang (David Tennant) and introducing her to the "Zatochi" practice style.

When Hera appeared in front of a Senatorial Committee in the New Republic to request a task force for Ahsoka and Sabine, her proposal was denied. The committee believed that there was insufficient evidence of an Imperial resurgence or Thrawn's return. They also suggested that Hera's true motive was to secure additional resources for her ongoing mission to locate Ezra Bridger, who was believed to have perished alongside Thrawn in the final episode of the Star Wars Rebels' series.

Ahsoka episode 3 introduces Jacen Syndulla, the son of Hera, in his first appearance in live-action. Portrayed by Evan Whitten, Jacen expresses his desire to become a Jedi after hearing from Chopper that Sabine is destined to be one. He conveys this aspiration to his mother, highlighting his aspiration to follow in the footsteps of his late father, Kanan Jarrus.

Despite Huyang's confirmation that Sabine possesses a significantly low aptitude for wielding the Force and would not have been chosen by the Jedi Order to join their ranks, Ahsoka refutes this by emphasizing that "The Force is present within all living beings." Consequently, Tano maintains the belief that Sabine indeed possesses the potential to harness the Force, provided she receives the appropriate training.

Upon entering the planetary orbit around Seatos, Ahsoka and Sabine's T-6 shuttle fell under attack by Shin Hati, Marrok, and an entire squadron of fighters. In response, Ahsoka valiantly assumed the responsibility of protecting the ship by disembarking it, while Sabine diligently worked on its repairs. Demonstrating her exceptional prowess and expertise as a former Jedi Knight, Ahsoka fearlessly deflected the incoming shots with her lightsabers, strategically positioned on the ship's wing.

Upon scanning Morgan Elsbeth's Eye of Sion, Huyang verifies that the structure resembles a colossal hyperspace ring, similar to those utilized by the Jedi in Attack of the Clones and The Clone Wars animated series. Additionally, it is established that the Eye possesses the ability to journey to alternate galaxies, including the one inhabited by Thrawn.

In their relentless chase of Ahsoka and Sabine through the skies of Seatos, Shin and Marrok found themselves traversing a majestic gathering of star whales called Purrgil. Remarkably, this extraordinary encounter unveiled an intriguing concept in the Star Wars universe - Huyang verified that eons ago, ancient pathways to distant galaxies were initially discovered by tracking the migratory patterns of these extraordinary beings.

It is apparent that there exist certain unresolved conflicts between Morgan Elsbeth and Shin Hati, as demonstrated by their unsuccessful attempts to destroy Ahsoka and Sabine's shuttle. Consequently, it is evident that Shin's allegiance solely lies with her master Baylan Skoll, displaying minimal regard for their employer who enlisted their services to aid in the search for Thrawn.

In the third episode of Ahsoka, the T-6 starship suffered severe damage caused by turbolasers fired from the Eye of Sion. This forced Ahsoka and Sabine to make an emergency landing on the surface of Seatos. The outcome of their clash with Elsbeth and her allies leaves uncertain whether they will be able to escape the planet.

These soldiers were previously seen in service to Elsbeth in The Mandalorian season 2, where Ahsoka made her first live-action appearance on the planet Corvus. In that episode, she sought the assistance of the Mandalorian, Din Djarin, to capture Elsbeth and uncover information about the star map leading to Thrawn, which Ahsoka had discovered in her initial episode.
