Rebels - S3E11 - "Visions and Voices"

0:12 - Hera (giving a briefing):  "There's no need for the full squadron; a small unit should be able handle this."  One of General Dodonna's comments during the briefing at the end of A New Hope has some of the same vocabulary:  "A small, one-man fighter should be able to penetrate the outer defense" [1:39:42].

2:47 - Kanan (to Hera):  "I'm thinking whatever Ezra went through with Maul, it's not over yet."  Leia also says, "It's not over yet" in A New Hope [1:37:04].

7:44 - Kanan (to Maul):  "You're not walking off this rock in one piece."  Luke uses a similar expression in A New Hope; after C-3PO asks if there's anything he can do to help, he replies, "Not unless you can alter time, speed up the harvest, or teleport me off this rock" [19:58].

7:49 - Maul (to Kanan and Ezra):  "I have planted a beacon nearby.  Strike me down, and it will activate, revealing your presence to the Empire."  Palpatine uses this phrase in Return of the Jedi as he taunts Luke:  "Strike me down with all of your hatred, and your journey towards the dark side will be complete!" [1:45:00]

8:30 - Kanan (after Ezra agrees to go with Maul):  "I do not like this."  This is also Leia's reaction after the Millennium Falcon lands in Cloud City in The Empire Strikes Back:  "I don't like this" [1:19:58].

10:46 - Maul:  "Trust me, Ezra."  Han also says, "Trust me" (to Leia) in The Empire Strikes Back [1:20:06].

11:13 - Maul (to Ezra):  "Do not touch anything!"  Qui-Gon tells Jar Jar this in Watto's shop in The Phantom Menace:  "Don't touch anything" [32:16].

17:36 - Sabine (possessed by a Nightsister, to Ezra):  "You're unwise to re-enter our sanctum."  Vader makes a similar comment to Luke during their duel in Return of the Jedi:  "You are unwise to lower your defenses" [1:49:24].
