Well, that week certainly went by quickly. On Saturday and Sunday the final three episodes of Lucasfilm’s animated “Star Wars: Forces of Destiny” series went up on the official Disney YouTube page.
The new shorts, which continued to fill in some of the gaps and answer a few burning questions about the larger Star Wars saga, reunited several of the female heroes from the movies and television shows set in a Galaxy Far, Far Away.
Episode 6, “The Imposter Inside,” saw Padme Amidala (voiced by Catherine Taber, reprising her role from “Star Wars: Clone Wars”) fighting alongside Ahsoka Tano (Ashley Eckstein) opposite a traitorous Separatist spy.
