To draw a comparison to the Dragon Ball franchise, Vader is like Goku, putting everything at risk because he'd rather test his skills against an opponent at full strength. He may hope that by allowing Obi-Wan to flee and recover, he may return to put up more of a fight next time around. Vader can clearly sense that Obi-Wan is a shell of the Jedi he once was. Not out of a sense of mercy for his former master, but out of disgust over what Obi-Wan has become. The only plausible explanation is that Vader wanted Obi-Wan to escape. Yes, Indira Varma's character Tala literally pulls him out of the fire, but how did she manage to hoodwink a Sith Lord? Why does Vader just passively stand there when Tala intervenes, potentially letting his decade-long quarry vanish all over again? It's enough to wonder how Obi-Wan managed to escape Vader's wrath in that sequence. By the end, Obi-Wan and Vader have had the first of what we assume is multiple battles, and Obi-Wan is very much the worse for wear after his ordeal on Jabiim.
Given how little Darth Vader appears in the first two chapters of the series, it's surprising to see the Dark Lord of the Sith play such a key role in Chapter 3. Why Did Vader Let Obi-Wan Escape on Jabiim?

Could the series be building toward a lengthy flashback sequence, one that will reveal Obi-Wan took the name of his father or brother? Obi-Wan has some serious wounds to recover from following his first rematch with Vader, so now would be the time for a good, old-fashioned fever dream flashback. However, Chapter 3 does show Master Kenobi reflecting on his faint memories of his family, which in turn revives an obscure piece of Star Wars lore. Maybe a name is just a name, in this case.
Obi-Wan is already using that name by the time the series opens. And why Ben, of all names?Īfter three episodes, it's unclear whether the series is going to lend any insight into the origins of the Ben name. We've never entirely understood Obi-Wan's decision to go into hiding under the pseudonym "Ben Kenobi." Why not alter his last name to make it slightly less obvious that a former Jedi Master is camped out on Darth Vader's home planet. Is There a Significance to the Ben Kenobi Name? Obi-Wan wasn't always a huge fan of Quinlan Vos. Could Chapter 3 be teasing a Quinlan Vos spinoff? Fingers crossed. We'd like to think this cameo is an acknowledgement of that, as well as a hint that there's more to come on the Quinlan Vos front.
In short, Vos is a character who's never been given his proper due in the live-action and animated realms. Instead, that storyline was adapted for the 2015 novel Star Wars: Dark Disciple. Vos does appear in a Season 3 episode of The Clone Wars, but his planned follow-up appearance was among many storylines cut short by the series' cancellation. He made a tiny background appearance in The Phantom Menace and was meant to play a bigger role in Revenge of the Sith, before he was cut from the story. Vos is an unusual character in that so much of his story happens offscreen and in the pages of the Star Wars comics and novels. Obi-Wan discovers an inscription left behind by his former colleague, suggesting Vos is still out there fighting the good fight in a galaxy ruled by the tyrannical Empire. Will Quinlan Vos Get His Own Series?Ĭhapter 3 gives The Clone Wars fans an unexpected treat by name-dropping Jedi Master Quinlan Vos.
