Another classic Star Wars character makes their first appearance in Star Wars Rebels in “The Antilles Extraction.” After an Imperial ambush leaves the Rebellion shorthanded in both ships and pilots, Sabine (Tiya Sircar) goes undercover at the Imperial Academy as word has reached the Rebellion that a handful of young pilots are looking to leave the Empire.
