Young Jedi Adventures recap: Nash's Race Day

As a gamer with a soft spot for Star Wars and a knack for racing games, I must say that “Young Jedi Adventures” episode “Nash’s Race Day” was a thrilling ride! The blend of action, friendship, and a touch of the Force made it an engaging watch.


In the small town of Kublop Springs, preparations are underway for the annual Kublop Classic race. Nash Durango, alongside her robot companion RJ-83, are diligently working on their racing boat in anticipation of the big event. Assisted by friends Kai Brightstar, Lys Solay, and Nubs, Nash’s enthusiasm is evident as she confidently looks forward to clinching victory this year.

Lys shares in the excitement as well, for they’re invited to sail alongside Nash on the custom-made skiff they both worked on with the Jedi younglings. Impressed by their efforts, Jedi Master Zia Zanna arrives and is suitably impressed. Grateful for the assistance, Nash didn’t previously have a crew to help her out. As Master Zia Zanna looks on, they unfurl the ship in demonstration of their collaboration.

…it swiftly plunges into the water. Nubs and Kai employ the Force to reposition the sail on deck. However, this action fails to win over another arrogant racer named Raena Zess, who competes against Nash regularly. It seems that Nash has never outpaced Raena in a race due to her superior ship, which her wealthy uncle has purchased. Notably, she is accompanied by a team of pit droids to maintain her vessel.

Nash feels confident about her victory, as her companions possess an ability far superior to any mechanical counterparts. However, Raena remains unimpressed, swiftly departing on her watercraft.

Master Zia emphasizes that Jedi, including Zia himself, train their Force abilities not to gain an edge in races, but rather to assist people. Kai concurs, expressing that employing the Force against fellow racers wouldn’t be right or fair. Nash seems taken aback, learning from Master Zia that such actions would actually constitute cheating.

Still, the master believes in their team working together will be enough for them to win.

It’s time for the race! Kai is responsible for speed regulation, Nubs manages the sail, Lys keeps an eye out for potential hazards, and Nash will steer the vessel along with RJ. Let the competition begin!

Racing swiftly along the waterways of Tenoo presents a perilous, speedy experience! As a team, they maneuver amidst the trees sprouting from the river, yet Raena remains ahead. To add to the chaos, it’s revealed that Raena is dishonest in her tactics! She deploys smoke bombs, disabling one of the competing ships. One by one, the other vessels withdraw from the competition until only Nash and her Jedi allies are left to challenge Raena.

Raena believes that the Jedi are utilizing their Force powers in conjunction with some additional speed enhancers, giving them an unfair advantage. Subsequently, both of their vessels plummet over a waterfall and become mired in the thick mud at the bottom. The children make numerous attempts to free their boat, yet it remains stubbornly embedded.

Nash implores the Jedi to tap into the Force. However, Kai remains steadfast in his refusal, considering it dishonest. Nash expresses a sense of discomfort whenever Reana is around, as she tends to make him feel low. Raena boasts and taunts Nash about her victories, causing him to question his own abilities.

Kai affirms to her that indeed, she’s more than capable! It was Nash who skillfully guided them through the tumultuous waters of a waterfall, ensuring everyone made it safely to the other side.

Nash discovers that teaming up with Raena will enable them both to retrieve their boats. Raena is puzzled by the Jedi’s lack of using the Force, and she is astounded to learn that they never have done so all along.

All of them decide to combine their efforts by connecting their boats using a tow rope. In unison, they pool their strength to pull their vessels from the mud.

The racers reset and decide to do the last part of the race: Fair and square.

They’ve taken off, swiftly navigating the geyser-filled stretch of the river. Reana gains a lead, but Nash has thought ahead. He targets a geyser that erupts at the crucial moment! Their vessel soars aloft, surpassing Raena’s boat. Touching down slightly in front, Nash dashes across the finish line as the victor!

Raena and Nash exchange a firm handshake, both eager for their upcoming competition. The spotlight then shines on Nash as she receives her trophy in triumph. As the day draws to a close, Master Zia and Nash’s mothers extend warm congratulations to the team, marking the finish line for “Nash’s Race Day.”
