My thoughts: It really feels like things are heating up and leading to some sort of climax. The Fireball is once again in action as Kaz borrows it to head out with Poe to meet General Leia! It didn't need Leia in it for Kaz to hand over the data he got from last week, but it was a nice touch. The most surprising thing to me was that there appears to be zero other people on the resistance ship! I know they are short on staff but I don't recall seeing anyone else! Although it was totally unnecessary, it was nice to tie-in the bigger resistance picture, make Kaz feel valued and to spice things up. I'm still unsure what Poe sees in Kaz, other than his flying skills, and why Kaz is so up for for being in the Resistance against a threat that's largely really unknown?
The scenery at the First Order station is amazing but I can't get it around my head that it would be left so abandoned? Why leave such an obvious physical base empty without any guard? Yes, there was a security system there which detected Poe/Kaz but why not bring the explosives to blow it up before you leave? Totally weird but super fun when Kaz/Poe get chased about and somehow manage to get away from every close encounter. Kaz is naturally totally ridiculous once more but pulls it off in a way Jar Jar Binks used to.
It seems the First Order were busy plundering resources from the area for weapons. No one believes that'll make much of a wave in the Senate, which makes one feel that they must still be quite thick in the senate or Snoke has just as much a hold over them as Palpatine did?

| It's General Leia! |

| Not so abandoned after all, eh? |

| Kaz screams and falls all over the place but gets the job done. |
Rating 7/10 - More Resistance context setup for us here and some enjoyable confrontation in what was beautiful scenery at the space station.
