Say what you will about the pacing and stuff, but this show FINALLY gave me a complete force muggle who had no mystical legendary bloodline of famous force space wizards behind her, no cloned mega-space-emperor midichlorian legacy shenanigans that made her the super-special chosen one and she STILL got to use the force through sheer grit and training and determination! Sabine Wren is what the broom kid could have been.

No, you don’t have to be the spawn of the force-elite with a meticulous pedigree and breeding to get all forcey, you can do it all on your own! Go get that coffee mug, you can do it!

    Meh. She shouldn’t have been able to pull the lightsaber and make Ezra jump so far when an hour before she couldn’t even make a coffee mug move.

      It needed a Rocky style training montage to get her from A to Z. Or at least background mentions that she was working on it.

      Maybe she let the drk side creep in while she was in that holding cell, increasing her power with consequences yet to be unveiled.

        Oooh, I wanna find out that Ahsoka deliberately suppressed her force powers while training to make Sabine exert herself even harder and “took the weighted training gear off” when she fought in the end.
