Synopsis

Zeb bets and loses Chopper to smuggler Lando Calrissian in a game of Sabacc, forcing the Ghost crew to assist Lando with a dangerous smuggling run to get their droid back. The smuggling run involves trading Hera to crime lord Azmorigan in exchange for a puffer pig, leaving Hera to escape in an escape pod. Humiliated, Azmorigan and his henchmen intercept the rebels on Lothal to take revenge. The crew successfully drive the gangsters away and part ways with Lando, though not before Chopper steals the fuel to Lando's ship, which the smuggler concedes as payment for their help.

The series was previewed with four shorts in August 2014 and a full-length film pilot episode premiered on Disney Channel on October 3, 2014.

A second season was green-lit in 2014.
