Hondo and Obi-Wan had a complicated relationship in the Clone Wars TV show. It started with Hondo capturing him along with Anakin and Count Dooku and trying to ransom them. However, Hondo ended up helping Kenobi and the Jedi multiple times in the Clone Wars. Whether they were on good terms or not, Hondo always greeted Obi-Wan with an excited “Kenobi!” every time he saw him. When Hondo meets Ezra Bridger, he tells him how he was best friends with a Jedi once. This is him referring to all his antics with Obi-Wan during the Clone Wars.
