Or maybe Kenobi dispatches Maul and on his way home finds Luke after he and Windy fell of the dewback (or was that just in the radio adaption). Thought there was time when Obi-wan wanted to give Luke the light saber before the droids wound up on the moisture farm and a fight with Maul could be the impetus.

I'm really disappointed by the episode. Aside from it being too simple, it's filler and the worst kind of filler: a filler episode when there are only two episodes left now in this season.
I can't believe the childish back and forth between AP5 and Chopper. What next? Pull a "The Simpsons" and have Chopper and another crew member going,
"Are we there yet?"
"No."
"Are we there yet?"
"No."
"Are we there yet?"
"No."
"Are we there yet?"
"No."
"Are we there yet?"
"No."
"Are we there yet?"
"AGH!!!"

I actually kinda enjoyed this episode. Yes, it was filer, but it was different. And I loved those little creatures AP5 found at the end and then unceremoniously got yanked away from.
Mediocre. I've never liked Chopper and never had much reason to be interested in AP-5. And now that I know AP-5 is supposed to be an Alan Rickman impression, I'm distracted by what a bad Alan Rickman impression it is (bad enough that I never realized that was what it was supposed to be).
Also, wouldn't it have been enough for Hera's power surge to wipe the ship's memory banks without having the ship blow up and kill all those people? That seemed gratuitous. I mean, how much agency do those Lobot-types even have? They seem less like villains deserving punishment and more like enslaved victims. Killing them all seems like an ugly thing to do.
I very much doubt it. He can't even recapture his Joker voice very well anymore -- he's reprising the Joker in Justice League Action, but his voice sounds much rougher and more strained. No way could he pull off sounding like a 17-year-old.
I looked to see who else has done Luke's voice in recent years, and Eric Bauza has played him in LEGO Star Wars cartoons, while Christopher Corey Smith played him in the Phineas and Ferb SW special. For what it's worth, Bob Bergen plays him in Robot Chicken.
But Luke is the catalyst to set Vader back on the path to fulfilling his destiny. Maybe Ezra's role is to protect Luke from some danger (perhaps Maul), so that he'll still be around in 2 years when R2 and 3PO show up.

So, correct me if I'm wrong, but this is the first time we've seen someone go to the bathroom on screen in Star Wars, right? That only took 40 years. Then again, I don't think we've seen anyone do it on screen in 50 years of Star Trek. Although we did see toilets twice, and they were mentioned once on Voyager.
And it's now canonical that Star Wars culture refers to a lavatory as a refresher, a term that has a long history in science fiction, though usually abbreviated as 'fresher; the term was popularized by Robert A. Heinlein back in the '40s, and is also used in Star Trek tie-in fiction, among other SF works.
I am fairly certain that she thought she was just going to wipe their computer core, but for whatever reason that ship was so hardwired into everything that it ruptured the fuel cells. I'm not even sure Hera thought they were on a ship. It just went boom as a convenience so they can't report back to Thrawn directly (I'm sure he'll figure out what happened once the ship gets listed as missing).
I'm not holding Hera responsible, since she just does what the writers decide. That's what bugs me: the writers' decision to gratuitously kill a bunch of characters, particularly as the ending to what was supposed to be a comedy. It would've been more than sufficient -- and more appropriate to the humorous tone -- if they'd just had their systems burned out, been stranded, and had to report their failure to a disappointed Thrawn. (Although he might have killed them anyway, depending on how the head guy explained it. Didn't the original Thrawn novels have him sparing the life of someone who honestly took the blame for a mistake and killing someone who tried to duck responsibility?)
Or maybe the emotionless drone people would've been freed from whatever mind control they were under and revolted against the head guy, if that was how it worked. If they weren't responsible for their actions, it would've been far preferable to see them liberated than killed -- especially killed by the heroine's actions without her even knowing it.
If you mean pee or poop, I don't believe that's ever happened in any Trek series, but aside from that we have seen characters in the bathroom before. OFf the top of my head:
* Trio (I think she used a sink) (ST: TNG)
* Picard in his dream sequence with the cheek popper (First Contact)
* Riker and Troi in a bathtub together. I don't think it's likely it was a holodeck simulation. (I think Insurrection)
* Torres in a sonic shower (ST: V)
The two times we've seen toilets in Star Trek are:
-Trek V, a toilet is what emerges from the wall in the brig when Kirk says "I need to sit down."
-A toilet can briefly be seen in the decon chamber in Enterprise Observer Effect
Also, in Voyager Bride of Chaotica, several toilets are said to be "offline." This is especially problematic for the Bolians on board.
Also, DS9 made a running gag out of having characters refer to "waste extraction," implicitly a futuristic term for bathrooms.
In First Contact LaForge and Z. Cochrane enjoy an extended conversation about taking a leak - I felt compelled to add this to the conversation for some reason. Well, I guess I will need to go see this episode again, for I feel I completely missed this restroom reference.
The bit at the end... with the birds. That was groovy, man.

Otto: [deridingly] Whoa-ho! A talking dog! [chuckles] What were you guys smokin' when you came up with that?
Cohen: [peeved] We were eating rotisserie chicken.

Probably not, since they've now addressed that question in Rebels Recon.
That depends. Does Dark Forces count? Because I distinctly remember walking in on Stormtroopers and Grans making use of a urinal right before I chucked a grenade at them.
Fine then. First time in canon, or am I forgetting something?
So was anyone else reminded of Futurama when we saw that shot towards the end of AP-5 floating through space?
