" When a wily pickpocket steals Ahsoka ' s lightsaber , she enlists the help of an ancient Jedi to track down her weapon and reclaim her honor . " Plot summary . Anakin and Ahsoka are in the slums of Coruscant searching for Car Affa , an arms dealer selling Republic weapons to the Separatists . They arrive at a bar where Affa is hiding , and Anakin instructs Ahsoka to wait outside while he apprehends the fugitive . When the patrons storm out of the bar , Ahsoka is jostled by the crowd and her lightsaber gets stolen . She chases the thief , but loses him in the crowd . Unwilling to inform Anakin about her loss , she heads to the Archives in the Jedi Temple , where she meets Tera Sinube , a Jedi Master with specialized knowledge about Coruscant ' s criminal underworld . Sinube finds Ahsoka ' s thief in the database , a Patrolian named Bannamu , and they set off together to apprehend him . Back in the slum district , they are directed to Bannamu ' s hideout — the Spider Arms Hostel . Ahsoka eventually locates Bannamu , and learns that he has sold her lightsaber to an assassin called Nack Movers . Thus , she and Sinube hurry to the apartment owned by Movers ' girlfriend , only to find that the lock has been cut open , and Movers has been killed . The two Jedi soon see a frightened female called Ione Marcy hiding in the apartment , who asks if the men who killed Movers have gone . Ahsoka goes to search the bedroom , where she gets attacked by Cassie Cryar , wielding Ahsoka ' s lightsaber . Upon learning that Ahsoka is a Jedi , Cassie jumps through the window and runs away along the city ' s rooftops . Ahsoka chases after her and contacts Sinube , informing him about the development . Due to the fact that Ahsoka ' s attacker was a female was inconsistent with Ione ' s info that men had broken into the apartment , and coupled with sensing something more than just shock in her , Sinube deduces that Ione was involved in the crime . He subtly attaches a tracking device to her and summons Guardian police droid s , but Ione escapes in an airspeeder . Meanwhile , Ahsoka is closing on Cassie on the top of a high building , when Cassie jumps and lands in Ione ' s passing speeder . Sinube picks up Ahsoka in another speeder , and they follow the tracking device to a train station . Police droids apprehend Ione , but Cassie manages to dash off onto the top of a departing train . Ahsoka runs after her and they ultimately enter a wagon , where Cassie takes a Twi ' lek mother and child as hostages , still with Ahsoka ' s lightsaber in hand . When the train arrives at the next station , Cassie attempts to run away again , but Sinube , having gotten to the station first , intercepts her and disarms her . Later , as Sinube suggests that Ahsoka should share the lesson she has learned , she heads to the Jedi Temple , and tells younglings how they should never lose their lightsabers . Behind the scenes . When Ahsoka visits Jocasta Nu in the Jedi Archives Library , a criminal file on Brea Tonnika is open on the computer Nu is using . The Aurebesh text next to her picture reads " LAST SEEN ON CORUSCANT WANTED FOR MURDER . " On Coruscant , when Ahsoka is looking for a Lightsaber to buy near the Fastfood Restaurant , behind her on the wall is written " Massage " . On Coruscant , when Ahsoka is chasing Cassie Cryar , numerous floating advertising boards they jump over feature Aurebesh writing . One such board reads " SODA ; " , another reads " STAR TOURS GLEE ANSELM CALL 1 - 800 - 555 - 6576 NOW ! " . The text under Palpatine reads " KUAT DRIVE YARDS AWARD " before being cut off . Despite the fact that one of the floating ads Ahsoka jumps on involves Palpatine making a speech and that the speech is included in the quotes on the episode guide , neither the character nor Ian Abercrombie , the Supreme Chancellor ' s usual voice actor , appear in the credits . A list of destinations that pops up at the hovertrain station has Burbank listed , a reference and in - joke to in California . A similar in - joke would appear later in the Season 5 episode , " To Catch a Jedi " . Pablo Hidalgo mentioned that Cassie Cryar and Ione Marcy were intended to have been lovers .
