Presented as a mean girl, who cheats to win, the episode softens on her when she learns the Jedi weren’t using the Force to help Nash leading to a final stretch of honest racing and good sportsmanship all around. While the shift in Raena might give you whiplash, there’s a nice message here for kids.
