Maul's in the next episode:"Maul makes his return and captures the crew of the Ghost-minus Ezra and Kanan-in order to force the two Jedi to meet him and bring the Sith Holocron; Ezra and Kanan are thus forced to approach the Bendu."
So they're not wasting anytime getting right into it.
Just caught up. The first two episodes were quite enjoyable and I loved that the Y-Wings were given to Dodonna.
The Maul episode was a lot less enjoyable. The merging of holocrons was one of the stupidest plot points ever.
As for who Maul is talking about, it's likely Obi-Wan. After all, Ezra saw Tatooine while searching for the key to destroying the Sith. It would make sense for both the Ghost Crew and Maul to be drawn there for the inevitable conclusion involving Kenobi.
Don't know why people are assuming it's Obi-Wan, first it's way to much fan service for Filoni's taste. Secondly we know that Maul's arc in Season 3 is directly tied to this and it will feature Dathomir and if apparently Maul still has revenge feelings towards Obi-Wan, his entire plot in TCW would be useless (killing of Satine). They've made it quite clear that the OT movies are a different story then they are telling in Rebels.

Maul said he has "hope" while Ezra wanted to end the Sith, I think it may be Savage he was talking about. Why would Maul hope Kenobi is alive? Wouldn't he hope his brother is alive?
Although it's most likely Kenobi he was talking about.

I don't really see the connection between 'hope' and Obi-Wan to be honest.

Maul is one ****ed up individual. His chance to get final and complete revenge may indeed be all the hope he needs.
But there is a more likely explanation that he saw Obi-Wan watching over (a new) hope.

It's not fan service, it's finishing up a story thread satisfactory. Sure, Maul may have gotten some form of revenge (though I doubt it was enough for his taste) but Obi-Wan never got any resolution to the plot. It ends with Obi-Wan fleeing and having virtually no role in defeating Maul. Having Obi-Wan playing a major role in Maul defeat would be a satisfying conclusion to that entire plot line. Furthermore, it would tie he dual roles in the two trilogies together.
