## Premise

The First Order captures a Resistance pilot with a connection to Captain Doza and Torra.

## Synopsis

Captain Doza uses a signal beacon to contact his wife Resistance pilot Venisa Doza for their annual reunion. However, this draws the attention of the First Order. Following a dogfight, the Colossus is forced to retreat into hyperspace. Venisa arrives and is captured by Agent Tierny. While in captivity, she meets Tam and tries to convince her to leave the First Order. While Tam is still unwilling to leave due to her still being oblivious of the First Order's true nature, she comes to respect her adversary and question her commitment to the First Order. Venisa escapes her cell with the help of her astromech droid Torch and escapes the First Order Star Destroyer, but not before skirmishing with stormtroopers and destroying several TIEs to distract Tierny, with Tam willingly allowing her to escape. While Torra is upset at not being able to rendezvous with her mother, she decides not to risk drawing First Order attention. To cheer her up, Kaz and the Ace pilots make her a jelly cake. Torra and Captain Doza spend family time together and reflect on Venisa's contribution to the Resistance cause.

## *Bucket's List*

1. **Personalized Helmets**: In the *Star Wars* galaxy, pilots sometimes decorate their helmets. Venisa's helmet has her surname, Doza, on one side, written in a font developed for *Rogue One: A Star Wars Story*.
2. **Names from the Past**: Venisa mentions planets called Bakura and Lehon. Both have origins in fan-favorite *Star Wars* storytelling. Bakura is from the 1993 novel, *The Truce of Bakura*, and Lehon is another name for Rakata Prime, a world from *The Knights of the Old Republic* videogame.
3. **Venisa's Great Escape**: Venisa mentions that she and Torch escaped from Terex. But she's actually talking about a person, not a place! Terex is a deadly agent of the First Order Security Bureau, and can be seen in Marvel's *Poe Dameron* comic series.
4. **From Scorch to Torch**: In the original episode outline, Venisa's droid was called Scorch. While it was later changed to Torch, both names fit based on the astromech's explosive talents.
