The Mind-Blowing Twist: Is Ezra the Unexpected Inquisitor Linked to Ahsoka? Unveiling the Shocking Truth!

Warning! This article contains minor spoilers for Ahsoka episode 7.

Summary

In Ahsoka episode 4, it is revealed that Marrok is a reanimated figure, disproving the theory that Ezra Bridger was the actual Inquisitor. Ezra's disinterest in the state of the galaxy and his friends' well-being indicates a possible attempt to shield himself from sadness and disappointment.

Ezra hopes to alleviate the potential pain of never returning home and reuniting with his family by refraining from asking too many questions.

The theory that Ezra Bridger was the true Inquisitor in Ahsoka has become even more ironic as the show progresses. Prior to the premiere of the Ahsoka series, many believed that the elusive Jedi, Ezra Bridger, was the person beneath the Inquisitor's mask. This belief arose from the fact that Marrok, a previously unseen Inquisitor in the Star Wars franchise, bore a resemblance to Star Wars Rebels' Eighth Brother in terms of armor. Additionally, Ezra had been missing for several years after vanquishing Grand Admiral Thrawn in the Rebels series finale, making it plausible that he had succumbed to the dark side during his exile, like other former Jedi who became Inquisitors.

In Ahsoka episode 4 titled "Part Four: Fallen Jedi," this intriguing theory was debunked. The theory suggested that Marrok was an existing character, but when Ahsoka effortlessly cut through his body with her lightsaber during their duel, he vanished in a mystical cloud of green Nightsister magic, revealing that he was a reanimated being. Subsequently, in Ahsoka episode 6, it was discovered that Ezra was alive and well on Peridea by Sabine Wren. It became clear that he could not have been an Inquisitor, as his inherent kindness and playful nature were evident in every interaction he had with Sabine. However, there seemed to be something peculiar happening with him as well.

Ezra Is The Least Inquisitive Jedi EVER

An Inquisitor's responsibility involves being curious; they are assigned with the task of tracking down any Jedi who managed to escape the horrifying events of Order 66, searching extensively throughout the galaxy. Ironically, in terms of curiosity, Ezra Bridger has never been less interested, leading to speculation that he might have been an Inquisitor himself. Despite this, Sabine has provided limited information to Ezra regarding the current state of the galaxy and the lives of their friends. More importantly, she has withheld details about how she managed to reach Peridea, the potential consequences for the galaxy, and her plan for their return.

Whenever Ezra attempts to inquire further, Sabine skillfully redirects the conversation. In the seventh episode of Ahsoka, titled "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness," Sabine cleverly avoids answering his questions about their imminent journey home by revealing that Ahsoka has taken her on as an apprentice. Naturally, this revelation surprises Ezra, just as it surprised viewers when it was first unveiled in the Ahsoka trailers, and it successfully deters him from pressing for more information. However, why hasn't he made a stronger effort to obtain the answers he seeks from Sabine?

Why Doesn't Ezra Want To Know What's Going On?

Ezra has a strong curiosity about what is happening back home. He made many sacrifices to ensure the safety of Lothal and the galaxy from Grand Admiral Thrawn and the Empire. However, he has been away for a long time, separated by the vastness of the galaxy. Perhaps, by not asking Sabine too many questions, he is trying to shield himself from potential disappointment and grief in case they are unable to return home. It has been almost ten years since he was last with his family, and the thought of not being able to escape would bring immense pain. By knowing less about his friends and homeland, he hopes to lessen the impact of such a loss as the season finale of Ahsoka approaches.

New episodes of Ahsoka can be streamed on Disney+ every Tuesday at 6 pm PT / 9 pm ET.
