The run-time for next week's sixth episode of Ahsoka appears to have been confirmed (several different sources are in agreement), and, if accurate, it should please fans who were of the opinion that some of the earlier chapters felt a little rushed.
The still untitled episode is believed to clock-in at 46 minutes, 26 seconds - without credits. This would make it the longest episode after only the extended series premiere (54 mins, 21 seconds), and last night's highly-praised nostalgia fest, "Shadow Warrior" (49 mins, 50 seconds).
Spoilers follow.
We still don't know what episode 6 is going to entail, but this week's adventure concluded with Ahsoka and Huyang enlisting the aid of one of the giant interdimensional space whales known as a Purrgil to (hopefully) follow Sabine Wren, Morgan Elsbeth and her Dark Jedi(?) accomplishes to another galaxy.
Will we finally see Grand Admiral Thrawn and/or Ezra Bridger? We wouldn't be surprised if these Star Wars Rebels characters were being saved for the season finale. In fact, considering what's going on with Hera and her potential court-martial, there's a chance episode 6 will switch focus to the (possibly former) General Syndulla and Month Mothma, leaving Ahsoka journey to be covered in the last two episodes.
That's pure speculation, of course. Hopefully, Lucasfilm will release a clip over the weekend to give us a better idea of what to expect.
