 Do all the Mandalorian things Hey Mandalorian, it's gonna be really good So guess what? We've gone. This is the fourth episode of our coverage of the television show Mandalorian and we're on season We haven't done a single comment showcase Let's change that right now Well, these are probably just gonna be memes because everybody's just there's just nothing there's not much to talk There's just everyone's just making fun of it. I guess I'm curious what the general sentiment is towards It seems to be Yeah, well, so these are from episode one then we'll move on to episode two I don't know what everyone said about episode three. Yeah, I know that I'll take all night will be unique though That's gonna be interesting a showcase when that comes around. Yeah, like cuz We went through a lot of like we even paused absolutely went through so I don't know what I was gonna take Think of our take but still think you you summarized it best drags diet and or I think that is a very good Description of it because it isn't quite as good as a and or consistently was but it is making more of an effort to be an Actual story than Mando has ever done. Yes You want to tussle it here and say keep keep at it kid It wasn't like brilliant or anything, but seriously like that's moving that direction, please absolutely I'd say it was so you must because this last week's episode was so good. Surely this week will be just like it Well, we can Moment we have to roll all the way back to episode one for a while because we're gonna Don't you love how Bo Katan sits there on the throne like a literal NPC waiting for a protagonist. Yeah, honey We speculate it's just doesn't have anything to do So they're all alone and that big-ass castle which highlights one of the big problems with our Mando in terms of its place in Star Wars is you don't really get a good sense of like what people do Other than when Mando shows up in their lives, you know, yeah It's like I don't exist for a while and then he shows up and then it's like oh we're here now I guess they kind of tried to do that with Navarro a little bit and call weathers But yeah, because that's why everyone compares with video games, right? But even something like a lot of modern games Ragnarok did this where if you stand and just wait Characters will be on a cycle of some kind like playing around with something moving over there sitting down They get back up they move over and then maybe the cycle ends with them walking in a room in the door Closes and you can't see what they're doing doesn't make it feel a little more like even to the point where if you stay around long enough You might get some secret dialogue that you didn't know actually there Yeah, a few games have done that Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption in particular works really hard to make it seem like Everybody's got their own things going on. You know, it feels like people lead lives beyond just his influence on theirs I mean while here they have real people and yeah She's like I guess that's the point, right? Oh, well they all left me So what's what what's a girl to do except sit here and do nothing? What is a girl to do? Seriously? I have no fucking idea Please tell me I need instruction Just when do when the way so I'm just gonna sit here. Yeah, that was pathetic because we never saw those people But they were there the whole time apparently waiting and then she said yeah, no no likelihood on that sword. They were like, oh I See a book on maybe following Mando. I know cuz he's not he's not a really true Mandalorian So they just have no leader. I thought that the whole point was that because he got the sword He was the leader. Well, in fact, it's not good. I'm a book on said wave that around and they'll do whatever you say So Bo Katan believes that he can lead them and if that's true But he's not a Mandalorian at that yeah, she knows all of that shit She didn't say he's part of like I will remember rags that her Mandalorians don't believe in that helmet stuff They believe in the sword Well, I think there's was different right it was that they because he's not from Mandalore He's from the Mandalore system, but he's not from the planet. He was from that moon Which I don't know what bearing that has on anything From either of them in that he was saved on some planet when the CIS invaded and then he was Yeah, he's taken in by Mandalorians Factored in that he was I maybe it has I thought it was a critical plot point in like season one that he Wasn't actually like from Mandalore. Yeah, that he was rescued by the Mandalore He's just like a Randy on some planets. I got ravaged by the CIS Yeah, cuz Mandalorians can be from anywhere, but they've got to take the creed or whatever the fuck and not good Alligator. Yeah, that's right big mythos. So again, they gotta fight Oh, yeah, the other big creature that attacked them not to be confused with the giant worm on Tatooine Yes, I've had a lot of giant creatures that lurk underneath Fluids Giant creature in in the premiere episode when he captured that blue guy when they got on the ship What do they eat to sustain this I guess we do for some crazy army of robots or more stormtroopers I guess Well, we didn't because we only got one action scene last episode. So we are we're bound for like three That's gonna be three Mandalorians believing their planet is destroyed without checking if that's true despite having the resources is like that one Monty Python Skit with a guy isn't actually dead not dead yet But he's not dead yet. He's almost there. He's also a couple leave. They actually did that. Yeah All those Mandalorians none of them checked and one of the throwaway line like oh It's a lie spread by the Empire to keep us in exile or something. It's like oh It's a planet you can go check. Yeah bokeh town you look like right next to it. Go have a little Nothing else to do I mean if you're in the same system, you could look up in the sky and see it, right? I mean, you see that yeah, and so you'd be like Get a telescope. Yeah, maybe we can see let's go check. Yeah little John. It's our worst. We got spaceships Let's go and then they're like, no, we don't have an all five unit or whatever Sorry Make money and think purchase one perhaps no one of the vendors who would gladly exchange it for currency I need this robot because it's the only one I trust that should no longer be decays after it tries to kill him. Yeah That's a lot to be sad about the decisions that he made there Yeah, let me point that out as well It was the only one that has the potential to want to kill him personally and baby Yoda personally in the universe the rest That's not a factory setting They even highlight that they're like, oh must be done with default programming. You're like, yeah Yeah, how about that? Yeah, maybe you should get another robot like you will Because he goes like oh now we destroyed the thing we need a new memory Stake or whatever it was it's like well, then you can just get another robot because it's a different one It's not gonna know you know needs to be an IG unit until it doesn't the specific robot that cured him of his robo-phobia Was this yeah, was this specific unit that protected him or whatever that stupid action scene from the first Season finale and now this specific robot is trying to kill him and baby Yoda And that's the last thing that happened which you think would call him to question his relatively newfound trust in robots Yeah, you might even say it might make him more jaded again like you know what these fucking things I knew it. I was right, but no no no no no You like robots now, okay? Here we go and or two people die the whole story is triggered by this Mando for people die because they wanted to drink at a bar, which is a school now Highlights the disparity in the gravity of Even though there's no alcohol and there's nothing Actually the building is not fit for the purpose that you want to use it for We made a new it's a principle I remember the principal was bullshit. It was like oh your cut of what we got from that score built this It's like yeah, his cut you idiot. He can do whatever he wants with it It's his money. What exactly is the principle that I have to drink alcohol specifically at this address Logistically it must be this set of these walls It has to be okay if you're really holding firm to that principle and you're gonna like fight and die Oh, well, but I mean it's gonna he's just gonna be a minor villain throughout the season because we haven't seen those fellas since episode one Oh, yeah, they're gonna turn it off or maybe maybe minor villain in this case means they show up once and then they show up again And they die and that's it Maybe I'll give it too much credit for like what a minor villain would actually look like but yes The comment highlights the the difference in the stakes of the show quite well Remember I'm and all kills those two people the following day he gets his alibi set He gets access to as many resources as he can he tries to sell his big like golden eggs sort of the thing for as much Money as he can and get a clean up the records of where his ship has been and get access to a new ship Or at least one that he can use it's clean as well Like that's what the episode is while we meet all these new characters And we see the bureaucracy side start to trickle in from those deaths Like is there even a point in comparing if you told me this is a world with the same stakes and like repercussions as and all And there's a some some planet that's kind of distant has some guy who's decided to lead it And he killed five pirates on it with a guy who was visiting be like so he's dead then Like there's no way he's getting out of that the pirates will probably find a way to land Some way they're gonna kill him basically grief cargo. He's doomed Especially because he even explicitly said that he doesn't want to be uh under the heel of the new republic Yeah, so it's like oh well I guess you got to deal with those problems on your own and all we'll have to conclude Oh, I guess he does if not for mandal being there you would have that's right He would have uh, he would have been screwed because what is navarro's local law enforcement even look like it seems to just be him It's him whenever someone has a problem that requires Of course They go to the mayor's office to the mayor and the mayor pulls out his gun and he shoots the problem Yeah, it's even worth mentioning that bokeh tan was a terrorist slash war criminal Who'd you thrown her own sister in order to drag mandalore into the clone wars? Seriously, she is probably the most responsible for mandalore's destruction If she and the death watch clan didn't try to overthrow duchess sateen with dathmore's help their mandalore and the several thousand other worlds Under mandalore would still have been neutral in the war and the republic slash empire wouldn't have uh any way of invading legally Keep in mind sateen kept mandalore neutral and brought about peace death watch and by extension bokeh tan led their home to war and subsequent ruin All right. Well, how come none of this has been mentioned in the Especially considering that this was uh, dav felonius creation Oh, that's right. He would have created all of that and he's the executive producer I'll put it this way if i'm in charge of writing season three and they tell me bokeh tan's gonna be a main character with mandalore I would then watch obviously all of the shit that involves her in this canon and i'd see all this and be like Oh, we're using this this this is you have to use this. This will be big I don't understand how this is just Like we you wouldn't even know is this a case where uh Is this just a case where they don't realize that that's the case? I don't know like the writers don't even realize that bokeh tan is on the hook for these consequences Yeah, it's just another classic case of we just sort of forget histories and move on without looking back or we don't really address people's You know character through their actions and it's never brought up Um, because yeah, of course, this would have incredible consequences when discussing the who's the real mandaloreans Who's the best mandaloreans? How come mandalore's in the state? It's in no one ever like calls her out for it or mentions it or says anything about it and people still follow her And I don't know why and I know I get what happens to those other mandaloreans before That we met from the first time in season two where'd they go? I forget. Did they go to do gone? They they left Oh, okay. I forget what happened to him. I mean, I don't know why that I left Yeah, I just don't I remember all that right. I just gonna be remember all that beskar The stormtroopers and empires didn't even use Remember that oh it can come up at any moment that shit would be worth So much money. I can't even begin to like estimate wait. It's quite still at and navarro. It's a massive pilot probably No, that's what grief kaga used to revet it renovate the whole place. He sold all of the f***ed armor The blacksmith is like, where is it? He's like, oh, I don't know. I don't know. I got washed away or something The empire took it when I left. Oh my god. Yeah, that's how they made those dark robots You made the new republic rags the new all right the empire still kind of exists. Yeah They had the secret base on navarro Yeah, that's right stormtroopers took it and that one guy. What's his face? Oh, gideon bad guy gideon moff gideon. He took it and he'd send it someplace and I don't know Yeah, I hope he comes back and does evilness things mandaloreans in most star wars media I'm an elite warrior trained in the art of warfare. I don't care if I win lose or even die I live for the thrill of the battle and the honor of mandalore mandaloreans in the goddamn mandalorean I should grapple a big lizard because it's one of my abilities We are died Ah That's the way they the more you see of them the more you're like That's like a whole group of mandaloreans. They should f*** it up like easily and then I go like I'm gonna pull on that big monster With my hands. Oh, jeez. Oh, no, it didn't wake. Oh Oh god, ah, it ate me. Damn it. The space quits are unfortunately a rebels thing. Oh wait, that was there was a show, right? Yeah If I remember right, they were added in the final season specifically to send thron and ezra the main character of that show away Since disney has no reason to show the squids other than as foreshadowing of the return of thron a character that people care about Or ezra a guy. I imagine we'll be seeing that this season. It'll be a teaser at the end Oh, okay. Yeah, it is there some creatures are far more easy to believe than others And when we talk about the huge monstrous creatures the massive ones that live in these like barren areas where there's no food That's really really pushing my ability to believe that these creatures could be real, right? They're cool though. But yeah, they're really cool when we have remember the season two episode like one or two I think it was two they had those creepy ass spiders in the cave I remember those things were like Terrifying and I could believe that those exist because they're like spiders and everything and there's a bunch of little ones Like, okay, that's really creepy But I just I don't know if I can believe It's really really straining my ability to believe that you have these creatures that live inside of like hyperspace tunnels Yeah, yeah, uh, and like they're like these big squid whale things and they I just that's that one's tough for me So that was really well But what if it leads to the return of characters such as ezra and thron? I've heard of one of these characters thron seems to be a beloved character But I just I mean, I don't I don't really have any interest or investment myself So I don't know I still can't believe the entire conflict of the first episode was that some guy wasn't allowed to drink in a school Oh, yeah, is he disney's taken a hard stance on uh drinking in schools They just want to let everyone know where they remember where they follow it It's not a world base as a renegade student. It's like, haha. I'm drinking in school I'm so cute. Is that better or worse than the drama of the second episode being he slipped in the bath? Oh, uh That one is special I think the drama of the slipping in the bath was bigger because Mando's a protagonist I guess and so is bokeh ton for a little bit She's been a lot in a lot of episodes and it was supposed to be like an important moment for him And the guys at the bar like we knew they were gonna fucking die We knew that no one nothing was gonna happen all of our protagonists would be fine There wouldn't be any impact really whatsoever and it's just like as silly as it is to slip in a bath like that's a thing that happens I don't know how many people are willing to fight and die in gunfights so that they could Drink in a school building That's just silly. I'm honestly baffled. You missed the greatest smartest best written most practical and poetic line Quote a Mandalorian has to understand maps and know their way around That way you'll never be lost That's next level quality writing Hemingway titles in comparison. I was curious after I saw this and I checked that is a line He says it to grogu a Mandalorian has to understand maps and know their way around that way You'll never be lost Mandalorian has to know how to read maps or else they'll get lost is like Yeah, yeah, I guess does grogu understand english. I still don't know like I don't think so I would assume That if grogu could understand English or basic whatever they call it that he would like act differently But he's sort of like he he flew all the way back to the ship and sort of like got help for him in the second episode But other times he just doesn't seem to react in any way But I guess he kind of does like I don't know if like does does john Understand garfield. Does garfield speak aloud or does he not know? He has thought bubbles, but Is that just his way of you know communicating or is like, you know, like I don't know Uh rags was I happy when his ship got destroyed and then passed right in the clip? Yes. Fuck. Yeah That was because I think we were all tired of the razor crest like surviving when it should be destroyed at every other Yeah, yeah, it was absurdly Um durable. Yeah, it had incredible plot armor and it seemed to be Used a bit too Inconveniently or used not at all like um the fourth episode in the first season when he had to destroy the atst And he just like the episode conveniently forgets and omits that he has a starship capable of destroying fighters in a single shot Yeah, this doesn't come up in the episode because this is a very poorly written show Is it like at the end they remember it or whatever? No Oh That that's a mystery episode. I still don't really know what happened But now we pine for the razor crest because it just made sense that he would have it We took it for granted We took it for granted that something would just make some gosh darn sense Mando Go get bokeh tarn to grogu grogu shows back up with bokeh tarn Mando bokeh tarn How did you get here? Fucking great writing. Oh, yeah, he does ask that. I remember that. Oh my goodness. I didn't actually expect the infants to do Yeah, he's just like I just figured you'd die or whatever Yeah, I was just like wing and a prayer The funny thing about Mando sinking faster than rocket boosted bokeh tarn is that it finally proves Mando Is the densest thing in the entire galaxy? Otherwise, you wouldn't have sunk that quickly Also, this is the second time Mando takes off his jet pack so that he can't do something though in this case It's even shown that bokeh tarn's jet pack has no issues with water at all though They show that in season two as well So i'm not sure if uh, she has the super water proof version of uh, or uh, all mandalorian jet packs are like that Yeah, I think the big part is the density thing. Yeah, she was jetting down And she couldn't catch up and she jumped in pretty quickly after him How many times have we seen Mando interact with water with a jet pack season two has the sort of watery planet That he lands on and meets bokeh tarn, but I don't think it interacts with him He got put in like a net or something right? He got put in a Like container that was filled with water in the middle of the ship and then got locked in but that was that was about it I guess i'm okay with it working underwater as long as we're consistent about it working or maybe it's less effective But depending I guess on how it's designed. I suppose it could work underwater at that point He took the jet pack off just for like cultural reasons not for because that would be my guess That's what I assumed bokeh tarn I honestly think that it's adorable that you actually believe these children's stories Says a woman that lost her followers because she didn't have a black lowy sword They revered because of a stupid of stupid tradition. Yeah, that's true But the more relevant part is I can't believe you believe in magic in the star wars universe Yeah, you see the force exists and also actual magic Well, yeah, because the night sisters were introduced in the show that she was introduced in right I don't know how well known they are but people know about jedi I mean the Mandalorians definitely do and they could use That's magic. Yeah, sorry. Yeah, I don't know why she would say this Is it literally that it's not about whether or not she believes magic is a thing It's just that it comes across as idiotic to her that you have to keep your mask on for no reason It's not like the the blacksmith lady would say It's magic or any issues say like that's that's how well the blacksmith I presume that the fact that it is magic is what they ascribe value to that's my guess I just mean that it's built into that whatever culture they have anyway It wouldn't matter if it were magical not I guess what i'm saying. It's what you have to do It's written I get I get what you mean I guess what i'm saying is that the impression that I get is that there's almost like That man that was appealing to a more transcendental quality to like bathing in the living waters beyond like principles that they've constructed Because of the fact that it has actual magical properties. If you get what I mean if I am Certainly, you know like as part of my religion I need to pray to a clock like that's just something I have to do and then if she was like that's just fucking dumb That's not going to do anything for you really. It would be like, oh, yeah, but My rules my book. Um Oh, yeah, but I guess all I'd say to bro katana is like, how about you chill out then maybe She's an edge That's that's at the core it's like how can she be this aggressive about it when she has her own bullshit But then Have the sword you actually have a right to like lead all of the people on your planet Maybe that's how she's more real than we realize that maybe I'm sure the people without realizing her own shit is stinky As are you think that's what they're actually trying to Maybe I don't know if I want to give them that kind of credit. No, I'm just saying that we can draw that out of it So you're telling me that after all these years no Mandalorian thought to check if their planet was sustainable or breathable Uh, no because it's cursed. So don't think about it and glassed over and apparently it was like profit gander So they heard it from what the empire the crushed empire You didn't want to verify information this incredibly important Yeah, like I don't know if I heard from everyone that you know, maybe I took a vacation and then on the way back Everyone's like, oh your helm got hit by a meteor. It's not there anymore. Uh, there's no more house free to go to I I think I'd check I think I'd go there if it was just down the street I'd obviously uh get in a a position where I'm safe and healthy like in a ship that's sealed or whatever But I'd still be like yeah my fucking ancestral home. Yeah, I need to see what kind of poison You know, is it is it really bad poison or is it just not good poison? Is there a way to counteract it? Is what what can we do? We're gonna have to live in domes. You know, what's going on here. Let's check it out Especially if you have technology to probe because I'm pretty sure stuff What it has probe droids or whatever you probably want one of them to not only Verify that it's poisoned or whatever but to also just check the poison levels over time See if they're going down. There's so many Mandalorids I just don't believe none of them just even tried even it was a suicide mission I just don't believe they just hang out in caves. They just sit around All they do is they just sit around in caves or underground and it's so shit We are all glossing over the fact that this episode did the same thing that happened in the book of Boba Fett Jin uh came to buy a specific item the mechanist tells him She doesn't have it, but that she can sell him a junk replacement Din does not need him and after uh short convincing jinn forgets he ever wanted what he actually came for That is what happened with the Right. Oh, yeah, because he wanted to basically get a ship that was like the razor crest But then she convinced him into buying a ship the first thing that was suggested Any utility to him is about then it was broken. He had to fix it And it's broken. He has to fix it with her. Oh, yeah, that's true. This air may be unbreathable I'll pressurize my helmet so I can survive this inhospitable environment almost drowns in a small pond love my ass off Now to be sure it's not it's not a small pond, but You know what it's calling it a small pond makes it sound funnier Yes, that's why it's okay So I'll I'll allow it. Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story Also, the funny part about this is that he probably did pressurize his helmet question mark This is something that we didn't really talk about because it's very confusing in terms of references, right? He goes down. She brings him back up. She doesn't perform like any kind of CPR on him and then he eventually goes I'm okay. Just like so what happened like Did he pressurize the helmet and then bang his head because was his plan to actually Bathe in the living waters and continue a speech and go like and like the He said he like misstepped or something he like Okay, well guys Yes, well, I guess that Well, I figure heavy or not though. I figure it's light. I figured that that's what Very resilient because if it's heavy that just makes your life a lot harder and then we come back to why do you think so fast? What the hell? Why did he sink so fast when bokeh tan also wearing mando armor and using a jetpack to propel herself through the water? Yeah, she has to be going faster here, but Yeah, but she I that's an old-fashioned. Fuck up is what that is. They just didn't realize for some reason Yeah, and so close is how much showcase one and two We'll do three and four next time and then we'll be we'll be caught up by then. No because this is for Five, so yeah, okay. We'll catch up eventually guys. Don't you worry So yeah with this episode, uh, I'm actually a little excited for it because and I was talking with um Gary and az about this finally for the first time in the entire series We actually have to change the goal of the main character because we haven't got one anymore. Oh my god Think about it. This episode was bounty hunting and as soon as that led to baby Yoda It's been baby Yoda up till the end of season two and then we reset they're having It was like what was he doing? He's trying to find baby Yoda's home. That's what he was doing in season One and two and then protected him from the empire and then Luke and it's like yeah, he did it So now what we saw him bounty hunting for an episode in Boba Fett and then Luke was like, yeah Fucking baby won't listen to me. You have him and then he literally like sent him back on uh, the ship Remember r2d2 delivered the baby Right because Luke couldn't be fucked next next time a student doesn't listen to me I'm gonna kill him in this sleep. I don't know. I might oh no Yeah, it's foreshadowing. But anyway, so the Mandalore is like, oh well, I'm back with the baby and I've lost my uh My honor or whatever. I need to go get it back. It's like, okay. Now you've got it back So now what is your mission because you've got the barbie you've got your stupid creed now what? You're gonna bounty hunt You're gonna find another adventure is something randomly gonna happen That's gonna give him a new quest because we've got nothing We've literally got no narrative thrust at all and we have no characters Which honestly makes it one of the most fucking abysmal things to watch in history And yet they managed to make me laugh a lot So I think we watched the trailer and there were lightsabers in it, right? Oh god Yeah, because we're gonna find out hopefully because I am our god I'm so excited to find out the history behind uh more maybe more from Mando's life and more from uh, baby Yoda's life We remember they baited it in uh book of boba fair Was it or Mando season two the baby Yoda was in the temple as all the Jedi were being slaughtered We didn't get anything else on that, did we? Oh, we're just gonna get like flashback episodes the rest of the season Well, I was gonna say we don't know We've got no thrust so Something's gonna happen and that's why I honestly i'm a little like interested in this episode I don't know what this will set up what we're gonna get next surely din jaran You are redeemed and bocaton crease. You too are redeemed It would have been so chad of her to take the helmet off here and now be like, yeah Actually, yeah, maybe I don't want because she doesn't care about all of this She's doing the thing with someone's like you're part of the club now and you're like, oh Oh, okay. Okay. Yeah, well, I guess I don't know if my castle anymore or anyone my face itches Might as well chill out here like at any week my entire life can completely change its direction and path and goals But whenever as soon as she needs to sneeze she's like fuck this clan takes it off because You guys have a sneezing room. How do they deal with that? We shove your hand up there and hope you kind of clean it up It's insane how many impracticalities you have to endure because of that. Oh god. No, look This man no training Oh, you're wonky that little thrusters. I can't believe they're all in they're all in the helmets They're oh my god They're like light your capes on fire, right? What are they shooting at? So really the only Shooting water you're shooting water. There's nothing to test while you've got people flying around on their jetpacks This is very unsafe rockets costs. Are they testing their trigger finger? What's the point of shooting at water? What does it do? What are you learning? Is gone, I guess I guess they got rid of dead. Oh, yeah, the corpse they would have probably would have taken some time to clear off Yeah, it's all blowed up and unless they got Mando's rifle one shot to it would vaporize the whole thing, right? It's a kermit crab. Oh, yeah the rifle that he hasn't used for like two years at this point Like a terrifying hermit crab or a nice hermit crab. Oh, he looks nice. Oh, he's scared He's afraid of this devil creature. I remember Baby Yoda's eating babies before next time that you learn with the other foundlings Learn what what do you learn? What's a penis? Everybody treat baby Yoda like he's a young adult or something. Is that CGI water? I was about to say Yeah, the way it's hitting the beaches is next challenger What are you doing? Baby Yoda escaped Luke after his abuse so now you're gonna make him go into a fucking like Fight. I just wanted a kid to just kick roguer cross. Yeah Imagine being the loser with that green helmet or the line green shoulder On the one hand it feels unfair to both of them because either you've got this kid beating the shit out of baby Yoda or baby Yoda's gonna use the force on that kid It's like in both ways. It's unfair What weapon let the challenge decide what what? darts darts You're gonna get baby Yoda throw darts at this kid. No, he's gonna like what is the show anymore He's gonna stop him with the force and everyone's gonna freak out because he's a Jedi and that's like a thing they have Dude too young to wear a helmet. What does the helmet look like on baby Yoda? Oh, fuck up his ears Look, I guess you want to build the ears into it, right? the training darts Fighters arm yourselves. What are we doing? Yeah, baby Yoda arm yourself here. Do we throw darts? I know what a It's irresponsible. What are we fucking doing like you're strapping dirt? You take it easy on him, kid. Do you understand what we're saying to you? And what's going on each has three darts You may fire. Well, you know how these things go, right? He's gonna Not be impressive not be impressive not be impressive suddenly How do you activate those darts? It's just a leather strap. You you go boom. You say There you go. It's not attached to the fist with your first. That's not gonna do anything. No, it's not even you're right It's not even connected to him properly. They just flipped it odd He can't Okay, don't stop keep going. Yeah get your three points boom boom boom Oi, why isn't he firing more? I've seen what you can do not know you not like this Have you seen him shoot like darts or shit at people? No quickly lift up the child with the force toss him somewhere He'll do a crazy jump or something. He's about to win. Yeah music Yep, see Oh, it looks bad Yeah, that looks really bad So he's allowed to do three Why didn't the other guy idiot not why or is that just the kid being a good sport letting him have lots of opportunities? I don't even know. I don't know. It's an idiot. What was all of that? There you go kid. You blame things I guess All right, there you go. We've done a fifth of the episode. Oh, no, don't tell me the crocodile's coming back Oh Oh Oh Guys, maybe we should chill out on a different planet at this point. Why do we think maybe go to another cave or something? What the fuck? Oh, man, it's that child the kidnapping dragon is here. How is this thing? This thing is fast No way they could keep up with this I'd say the jetpack surely is faster Well, that's what I'm saying for what we're seeing the dragon's just gonna fucking outclass him. Look at that How is it moving so fast? Oh my god We're gonna go have to go as wide because we've moved so far Wait Oh, oh, he's out of oh, so he's stuck then. Is that why do we ever see them run out of fuel? You gotta walk back. Oh, and he's out of fuel. Yeah, they've got a lot of fuel. They have those idiots Oh that momentum changed. You see that? Yeah, that was great. Oh, and man, there's out And we can't fly back. I'm out of fuel. Yeah, I can see that it always gets away It always gets away. Oh the child stature always gets Oh, bokeh dad the only smart person here. Yeah, I was about to say that's probably the smart way So if this thing the regularly comes by and abducts children, it always gets away. Yeah Man, the kid's a guy dude. Mandalorian Is that seriously going to be the fucking crux of this episode is saving this kid from the stupid kidnapper They've wasted that give me his next quest. Don't tell me Why wait, how are they here? They I wish what what did she pick them all up on the way back But then she would have spoken to them already. What the fuck logistically speaking. How is everybody all here now? They've walked very fast. I guess she came back gave him some fuel and then Well, no because she came back and mando was there with them. So he must have walked back back They all walked back and then she drove back and then they had a chat and they still believe the child is alive now It would kill the child It's gonna kill the child like it's taking hostages. It's an animal. It's probably eating the kid now I was gonna say you guys have taken two orange kids dead. Let me guess. This creature is immune to blasters too, by the way Oh shocker. I'm at the hermit crabs are completely Blasterproof You are too young to join them All in good time This is what's happening in this episode is this is the drama a dragon comes along and grabs the kid and now They're gonna rescue the kid from the dragon You know all the like how they say like all in due time you all gonna be dead when you start Look at him walking You're correct battle by the time Baby, you're just teenager all of these people will be dead of old age Why did they not even attempt to make the mandalorian armor like kind of match? It's just random pieces that are random colors and some of them are like line green and like mint And it's like what are we doing? Why are they not like differently colored? How come they don't have patterns to distinguish people from one another? Well, they haven't gotten to the shadest part of the uh the skill tree We're extending every last pause and movement to get this episode to the time Wait, what's the heart of mandalorian culture the best car the forge Oh the forge Hey, there's like this whole planet has a lot of vascular you might want to go there for the fortune there A hat or a Helmet. Well, she making some of a grogu now I guess I don't know if I should just do some random shit I was like the best part was really precious and stuff. I don't you only have the one up You only have a huge one Really annoys me too. This has to waste been the rest off dude Look, she even leaves the fucking flames on when she's not using them. I hate it See if the mandalorians were really cool It could be interesting to explore the notion that baby orders are in a sense is getting worn away just through like You know adversity No, but Lightsabers look pretty look there's a green one. Yeah, I see. I was about to think about what we do with character Go Wait, how did they miss the baby missed all those shots? Are you sure these guys won the clone wars? Everything's gonna be all right, kid. Hello, who this? Hey, tomorrow marson's boys I fucking hate star wars See this this is back to favro star wars where it's just like you guys like it when lightsabers and clone troopers and stuff Is it just me or does he look like he's very much on a green screen like it Oh, yeah He's not here at all. Do you mean like actually on the we haven't got anything yet. Who is this guy? I believe that the guy who's playing him played uh, jar jar binks for real I think oh, that's neat. That's cool That is neat Not as a lesser hero, but you know jar jar got all this started, okay Our garden started the clone war is kind of sort of but you know emergency power to the supreme chancellor I don't know man. He could be talking to baby yoda and telling him who he is and what the plan is or whatever instead We're just gonna be doing This well, we need to have another action pain. You can do character as well Think of all the dead civilians from like all these blaster shots being fired through the city Well, yeah, because I thought that the whole point of it all happening in the temple was that you could kind of cover up what happened But like this. Yeah Did the la t not know this was a train place did that kill a lot of people on that train? Yeah, presumably yeah Well, it's a small place. Yeah, so it's only a planet spanning city We're gonna meet up with some friends of mine, but hold on. It's gonna be a bumpy landing Oh Wow, did you need to do that? I know that the engine was shocked. What that's why They're right behind me. What about the others? I know others It's a fucking LED. Go! You guys had the absolute advantage there. You could have shot the fuck out of them. Yeah Yeah, why didn't they just use the cannons of the uh the landing? You don't live in these guys behind. Are you dude? Seriously? They should have seen that coming to ages away Oh Okay, bye. They didn't run into the ship or anything. Thanks. Well, everybody's so desperate to keep baby Yoda alive What is the deal see the chosen one? Will he bring balance to the ball that took up a decent chunk of episode now to go save the kid? I guess We didn't learn anything no Nothing for character. I didn't learn anything about that new Jedi other than standard Jedi It's an art what they do they manage to show all these events and they give us nothing It is kind of incredible how little we accomplish with the time that we had because I mean that was like a solid five minutes That was no, I mean that's plenty of time. Just grogue having a PTSD flash Things I That Jedi's gotta be important then right? Yeah, I hope we're definitely seeing him again Hopefully we ever see him where he talks about his values at some point that'll be nice Why does he get a piece of armor? What did he do? I don't know Why does he have a signet on it? Is it well? That's the one right? Yeah Well, is this in recognition for defeating the mudhorn back at seas of what or something or do you get it for being a foundling that way? Maybe you do. Yeah, cuz I consider my Big I guess Like yeah in 30 years, I guess Maybe I love all these fucking rules. They just randomly throwing us like we can't just fly up there cuz you'll kill the kid We can't do anything that create noise. We'll kill the kids like how do you know all this like cuz that's what he always does like always does Why did you guys build your cave around the kidnapping dragons of the bad eating crocodiles like why all right? We've got nameless mandos so that they can die in the ensuing battle So the Mandalorians don't have a ship of their own not one not a single one. They need to take bokeh tans Oh God, how'd they get here in the first place? I was about to say maybe they just like They just spring up to the ground Yes, and all the time that's taking you guys to walk to the dragon Well, cuz think about the time you flew back after you found out where his layer was So between then and getting back there and walking here the drag has just been chilling out doing nothing Yeah, not not having a little leg. God. It's just back to being sludge again Yeah, the target is on the top of this peak. We sleep out of line of sight and climb it first light Go to sleep. Do you think that you are in any position to be going to sleep right now? Well, this kid is doing this clip clean doesn't matter to any of these people either It's just got away while we have you know how none of them have shown an emotion about this No, it's just like yeah, I just got to go rescue the kid No, none of them like all that kid, you know, he's he's a great guy like we need to save him sort of thing Nobody cares. How do you eat one of the people around you go off to find a place? Oh my god This is so Juvenile and hate it so much you even like sorry, what? Hang on so like so they can eat together So they can get up. We can they can they eat together if they face away from each other Oh good question, but that means that their entire culture means that they don't have a shared meal No shared meals don't exist in their culture unless they have a straw Whenever they have a big victory and they have like No, they don't get Is it like every human culture has like elements of yes, they do Well, what happens if another man don't walks back while you're eating that are you just fucks like to wait Yes, like have you got your mask on? Okay Confligration to break out. What were you burning? From where from where this is a desert We can't even attack it it will it will kill the kid if we attack it so they have to hope that the kid is And the dragon's gonna be sleeping and then one of them will make a sound and then there'll be a big fight scene and a Couple of the faceless nameless Mando is just by it's just funny that they hope that the dragon has not eaten To him has let him go and he's sitting up there just waiting for help So like I know Mando's are meant to be awesome and everything but all of you like do you all know how to do this? Yes, this is part of the training. They're all trained to do Climbing they're all trained to do even though Bo Katan said that it was her training that taught her how to do mountain Okay, look alright. I know you guys really cool and everything, but I don't believe you all know how to do this Or is one of them gonna fall here Okay, we're still climbing wouldn't want it to You can't talk to each other using up using like a helmet communicator I say like how you whisper into the helmets and then it transceives or whatever Yeah, you can't even whisper Well, I sure hope none of you need to say anything to anybody while doing this So like this would require a lot of coordination. This is so stupid. What a waste of fucking this is the whole episode for fuck's sake Yeah, cuz this is like I'm not gonna get my answer. We've had nothing like achieved here I'm not gonna know what what is stupid next quest is A massive Because this is like the filler episode That's worth a lot of money to grab that it's not here. Let's find the kid Oh, look, it's not here So none of you sort like fly away when you came here or was it always not here? Oh What suddenly now he's emotional like unstable why That was just shoot it with your guns. You could have had a scene at the campsite Yeah, you could have had a sane Mando talking to them about oh and Mando's got a kid now You know like this. What are you doing show show? He's still on the ground He covered himself up with a tiny little bush. That's a cool looking critter. What's going on? Oh You guys Are they actually trying to convince us that that kid was in his stomach this whole time. Yeah What what is happening? Look out Mokin I call that Man they keep humiliating Mandalorians Why don't you want them to be cool that dragon thing didn't even care about the fire in his mouth in his eye Yeah, does anyone shot blastered it or they're not allowed to do that. They have to use these Attaching yourself to big animals. Oh, she can draw herself. Yeah, you can draw yourself in I'm gonna stab you Oh, I guess so is he has dropped him now. All right, so he doesn't get to participate in the rescue of his own son. No, that's cool How many other got the wing oh geez, but that wouldn't do anything. What do you get so flat? You're not you fly your knife. What the fuck? What is going on? I don't know all shit We're in the same scene. What a bunch of toss That thing's gonna be pissed No, no, I'm all wet. Oh It's always a bigger World oh god bad. Oh, so this will be like ah see Mando. You're okay. You save my boy. I judged you too harshly And explicitly I'm okay. This is the way So he was actually in the dragon stomach. Yeah, just chillin out So like how do you write something like that and and accept that do you know? I didn't even like my brain didn't even register it just it just thought to itself that the creature burped up a person something it can do What are those crayola We're all doing different things This is the way Is she like is she just doing it now and we have brought you three more foundlings in need of care and training Wait, you're actually gonna keep the dragons With you. Oh, well, I mean, I guess I guess you killed their mom How did they all fit in there I don't believe how did they all fit in there and how are they not like Postal because I mean there's no such thing when it comes to animals and domestication I mean you can do it in an afternoon. She was gonna feed it a person Remember, so you need to find food for them. I'll eat you can replace what's missing But not with its modern refinements. I inlay the signet of the night out Wait, they really knocked off a piece of armor just to have this scene What do you be acceptable to wear one pauldron the night owl and another with the myth is where why do you want the myth is Or specifically is this bokeh time's arc. I'm reconsidering everything because that's all that myth is or Why would he actually know he's gonna last like until the end of the year They will extend this bullshit for as long as they can look mythosaur What would you say if I told you I saw one see, you know how she said I saw real mythosaur What do you think about that? But we'll we'll take as long as we can to actually say that one way that you saw what a mythosaur I would say you are very lucky. It is a noble vision. I mean a real one. Yeah Finally living watered you choose to walk the way of the mandalore You will see many things. Oh, so she's still not addressing you Yeah But like it's literally called a mythosaur She just asked the question like four times and didn't get an answer Like I saw one. I physically saw one in the water. Well, you see many things Who wrote I do there you go back to John Favre or Dave Filoti Yeah, there we go when characters just talk at each other. Hey, what if I saw this does this the way no no hang on I Pretty sure I saw one. He had a really lucky vision. You had there. It's like can you Talk to me like yeah, we like have a conversation said you fucking around. Yeah, are you being weird and not answering me? That Favre Filoti stole his content though, right? Jesus Christ. What? Yeah, we're just back to being bullshit again There wasn't even like a cliffhanger at the end. It's like this is the next thing. It's like no This is well, no, that's a filler episode. There was nothing we it just seems to be whatever they set up here with this New Jedi character and baby Yoda. That's like all you've got as a real plot thread I like that just came out of nowhere that like out of nowhere It had absolutely nothing to do with anything that's been happening for the last few episodes like that was literally We've resolved whatever our drama was we need to insert this in here to have threads that can continue for the rest of the Season and to be clear if the next episode starts to flash back and they're in some planet and he's like, ah baby Yoda So same stuff we could have started there We didn't need all of that well because we know that he got out We know that he'd live and we didn't learn anything about this new Jedi character in the process other than he did what Jedi's do He saved someone though while also leaving the people who came in rescue him On the platform to be killed by those clone troopers. It's all just fucking madness. I mean otherwise it was once 20 minutes for Oh surprise dragon attack. Let's go save the dragon. You know what bokeh tan? Right oh god now. I'm saying bokeh tan. It's bokeh tan. Isn't it? I don't know. No Don't know what the correct way. She says bokeh tan. She says it. She has to be the authority, right? So, yeah, it's It's all stupid none of it made any sense. It was all incredibly dumb. I can't believe any of this I just can't believe it this nonsense world devoid of our logic. It's turning me into a nihilist He actually doesn't have a goal and they spent a whole episode avoiding having to deal with that I mean to deal with the fact that he is sans a goal because he was redeemed in episode two when I think we all thought that was gonna Be the whole season. I thought yeah Yeah, and another relevant part as well as they're all still here on this planet instead of going back to Mandalore like that Mandalore is okay doesn't mean anything to any of these Mandalorians. Isn't that nuts this would have been a conversation Yeah, what exactly is here that they desperately can't leave behind what the dragons and the crocodgators Random fucking like in the first episode. It was random massive Crocogator and in this episode, it's like oh no surprise dragon attack, but not a surprise apparently It's it's abducted people before and they've just never mounted when they're making all our rescue attempt They're making their initial plans. It's like, you know, we would all assume it's like well Just just bum rush it right and then it's like no because this has happened before Because I don't even know if it's blaster proof because they never hit it with a blaster. Did they know I think they said like we can't use blasters because it'll kill the kid if we do That was based on the notion that the kid was in the lair with the dragon But that wasn't the case the kid had already been eaten Well, just don't hit the part just don't hit the kid Just hit the rest of the massive creature you like your Mandalorians, right? That shouldn't be what would have happened If they shot at the dragon, it's like just for that I'm gonna actually digest the kid instead of having him chill out in my esophagus. I guess I don't even though Oh, I just don't know. I mean we've I mean we got stuff going on in the galaxy Everyone's doing their stuff and the new republics carrying on people are living their lives and all the stuff's happening And meanwhile somewhere else on this discount tattooing world with no vegetation Mandalorians are being killed by wildlife and droves And just it's their styler right and they don't take any opportunities to say or do anything I can't believe that guy was his father. I wouldn't have noticed that How could you ever deduce that in any of the prior conversations? The only thing would be that in episode one he bumped him out of the way to like save him from the crocodile But like anybody would have done that yeah would presume so that that's basically nothing. Isn't that crazy? We just find out. Oh, he's a son. Oh, well there you go That gives him an opportunity to salvage the relationship between him and Mando because they kind of don't like each other But he saved his kid because of course robbing the dad of the art because it's all got to fall on Mando Because he's the coolest most awesome guy ever. It's so easy to you have the same way she realizes She's alone at the fire She goes to take a helmet off and then we cut over to big guy and Mando walking in a similar direction And then the big guy is like why are you so invested in this and Mando could be like well the foundling I was a foundling you know blah blah blah blah and then eventually Mando can flip it back on him Why are you so invested in this and they'd be like I need a reason You know blah blah blah until they eventually talk and talking figure out something just anything please Anything at all the character that would be wonderful. We had that whole flashback and there was zero character We have plenty of lightsabers and lasers and places I recognize and speed a chase and the LA 80s and the temple, but like I don't think I'm gonna remember any of that I'll just flash and CGI and Not nothing is going on here. Nothing's happening. I don't care about anything that's going on It's all nonsense. Nothing makes sense. Nothing makes sense. That's the thing like nothing makes sense It's crazy the main person that's getting any form of dare I say change I guess is bokeh time, but it's in the form of like this is the way stuff is dumb I know she's like it's not so dumb Maybe it's gonna take a whole season to get to the end of that as well on why What is she interested in I don't know I don't know what her goal even is because she doesn't seem to be making much of an effort to get back To Mandalore wasn't that her whole goal was to go back to Mandalore and like save it Yeah, but we don't know anything about what that entails or what her plan is for it or uniting Mandalorians All we have is she's turning from one thing. I don't care about into another thing I don't care about and I don't care about her. So I just don't care. What'll happen next time. I Don't know. That's kind of my view is I have no idea Well, it's hard to it's hard to say now, isn't it because at least in season 2 There was the overarching Moff Gideon thing now I don't know because of course this episode doesn't help us figure out what episode 3 has been building up to this episode Had nothing to do with that one I certainly hope that people don't generally consider this episode to be better than the last one, but I guess That is the case yeah, because the what people will say is that both of them Bailey had any substance But at least this one isn't boring Yeah, we're in that really bad place of things not making any sense where you just anything can happen now Yep Anyway, that's episode four. Yeah, I suppose so goodbye everyone. We'll see you next time
