 On then rags do the intro. Hi, um, I saw a duck in a tree today That was exciting I did a um Did a did a walk a bit early because we do a recording and I went around the we got some lakes around here Walking around the lake and uh, there is like houses. That's like in a suburb. There's houses on the outside uh, I guess that's normally where houses are but Sure enough, there's this duck comes flying and he's going up and he just lands on a lands on a big old tree branch And i'm like, wow, you don't see ducks and trees much There he was just up there on his uh on his tree branch just hanging out I was like, huh, you don't often say ducks up in the trees You always imagine them being on the ground or in a little lake chilling out on the water I see ducks everywhere, but I never seen him on trees like that. It was enough to make me go like, oh, wow Ducks and trees. Yeah, it's spring the birds are chirping outside all of the The grass is green and the trees have our lush with the leaves all the turtles and the ducks and the fishies are out and It's lovely. It's just it's it's just wonderful and lovely all the people are Getting their fresh air and their sun Um, yeah, while we're watching we're watching mando, right? I thought the the idea of that was going to be the and then you realized you had to watch mando And that's the opposite of like a fun happy oh like a fun happy thing Yeah, I'd rather be in out and enjoying nature than watching Mandalorian more and more people are starting to come around to that position Especially over the course of this season of mandalorian, which is interesting popularity is at an all time low It seems to be and whatever the goodwill this show had like it's been eroded. Yeah watching everybody too Even episode one. I think people like yeah, some people thought that episode two was okay. Yeah Yeah That was when they go to mandalore. Oh Wait, people thought it might be years until we are vindicated for our correct opinion that mandalorian was always bad From the first season it was bad and the second season was like more obviously bad But pretty much just as bad and this one's even more obviously Now the reason why I find the question interesting is because the writing is is like the same as ever But like what what changed with season three to make it to where people are starting to realize that it's bad And I wonder if flavor the aesthetic if I would have made it appeal to the writing It would be that we are we are aimless right now We are like actually aimless in a way that wasn't the case in season one and two because there was still the overarching central narrative about the Didn't we think that originally the overarching plot of this season would be mando Becoming a mandalorian again. We thought that that would be the art the thing for the season But then it was resolved in episode three He cashed in the quest in three. Yeah, exactly Which is basically all that happened in between a random encounter in the open world Like when he was getting back to mech or I'll get back to the planet with the cave And I assume that the ig 11 thing is just done. He'll probably come back in the finale That'd be my guess, but I could be going I have no idea. We're gonna do a big team up. We always do, isn't it? Yeah, I'm expecting bogus that will come back. It'll be bogaton the combination I think we'll see moff Gideon Yeah, we'll see moff Gideon this episode We'll have probably, you know, like the death robots we had in season two is something worse than that This time it's gonna be even more scary or something Although they make up to Get the ig unit back because then they say that the he needed a new unit The unit got destroyed now like the memory circuit whatever was left over in his head because it got crushed Programmed the memory in how did you do that? That's very impressive. Shut up. Yeah, maybe grief cargo will be with him Yeah, probably it'll be a big a big team up of all All of the Everyone just Even the dragon the crocodile will come back just to Celebrities are gonna be are we gonna see this week? I'm thinking dick fan dyke And um Who who else who am I feeling? I'm i'm i'm i'm rubbing my noggin I'm i'm look i'm gazing into the crystal ball Which celebrities will they bring out a new star wars production this week? dick fan dyke I see um I see logan paul. He's in everything these days. Oh logan paul. Good. Yeah, that's a good man dick fan dyke and honolsch was negative like they're like a trio of mandalorian That's a good one too Do we need like a more like a pop artist like a like a singer or a dancer? bad bunny Bad bunny. Who's that? There's some rapper. He's in everything as well. Oh he oh i hear the word bad bunny and i assume It's a lady. I don't know him from his music. I only know him because he turned up in wwe All right, okay Oh wrestlers would be perfect for mando cameos. They could be in that they could be the gamorean guards or just big dudes Yeah, well the one man the one mandalorian lady. That's a wrestler Okay, there you go. Yeah All right, we did have a wrestler right caradun, but she yeah, that's the one i meant She's she got she's in special forces now. No, she went to japan I don't know what that means No, she's just wrestling wrestling, but then this little japanese ladies. Is she fucking them up? Oh my goodness Pretty much. She's taking on the big sumo boys There's like the idea that it's like did she do this activity or this activity? She went to japan Okay, oh, yeah It's so clear to me when i say that it's like, oh wait You japan pro wrestling still doing the wrestling I was I was Chin wagon with all raggleton, uh, about how I thought you were about to say a wrestler name from japan Chin waggleton Chin waggleton I thought you were doing a meme All right, what I meant to say was I was talking with rations family And uh, yeah, good reference, uh the so I I was talking with him about how like in season one Nothing fucking happens and then in the last Penultimate episode is established. You have a huge army of bad guys and moff get in is there and we wipe him out And we blow him up and then it's like Oh, he's not actually dead Okay season two huge new army remember it's even bigger than last time He had like spaceships and a huge robot army and oh, we blew it all up and we blew him up Well, we didn't really blow him up, but we put him in jail and it's like he's done Done and in in a post credit scene or at least something like it. They've already said no, he's out. He's fine And who wants to bet he's got himself a new fucking army that we're gonna have to destroy I think there might be a little bit of a continuity issue because in uh the season finale of episode Or sorry season one. We just saw him standing on top of the tie fighter He wasn't actually caught or anything and he had the dark saber So I assume he walked over to the secret base, right? I guess so god that's a long walk. He probably has like a cell phone, right? Maybe And he cried because he knows about the base surely did does that ever come up that I don't know That base got blowed up as well, right? Yeah, I did later in season two when they invented it See that we did that in between season one and two They always just go like look loads of bad guys. Oh, they got blowed up Pew pew pew pew Well, we're never gonna get the um storm troopers After the because because season one sort of it teased the idea that they might do something interesting with the empire You know with them being like a like a smaller fledgling Force on the run from a new republic or you know local governments things of that nature And they didn't have the support they used to But like anyone who's loyal to the empire still must have like a really like a really deep reason for sticking with the program You know still wearing the armor and going through them, you know motions and things like that Which could be really interesting, but I I guess he's never did that the reasons we're bringing up those that uh We got two episodes left. So if if the plot's gonna kick in it's now So fascinating that every every episode we record like something comes up. I was like, oh look at all these things All that potential you could tab into and do really cool things and it's like no We have jack black and flimzo or whatever fucking name is like, okay flimzo same thing Yeah before we can check out what new horrors they have for us. It's time comment showcase Episode four comment showcase they're clearly attacking the water because they know how dangerous it can be to slip over in it Maybe if we shoot it out and definitely we can dry up the whole lake through heat You'd think that living by the water they would be like Oh, this is a good opportunity to teach everyone how to swim. That's a good thing to know how to do That's not like I don't think you could let's forget how to swim It's just you know one of those These people ought to swim. Yeah, but then they're like, oh, it's full of Crocogators from space and they're gonna eat us. So maybe we better not think they're the preemptive shooters They're not actually training for anything. They're just shooting just in case the crocodile actually gets Well, the reason it came Is because it's like del lago if you keep shooting the water it comes out and wants to eat you Yeah, so they keep shooting the water and throwing rockets and stuff in there You're gonna agitate the wildlife and it's gonna come and eat you and as we know It is star wars wildlife. So it's immune to all weaponry That every ship anything that can really take it out Maybe only a death star can take out the crocodile at this point I love the implication that every time the foundling is taken by a giant pterodactyl They chase him to the point of using all fuel in their jetpacks and walk to their hideout on foot Empty handed what a miserable bunch of incompetent warriors You know what would be really cool little techno world building that these shows could be full of but never are If once the jet pack was about to get to halfway empty It started to emit like a warning beep beep beep half capacity You're about the halfway point because typically like when you go scuba diving You want to like what I think when you when your tank gets to be about it's been it's been so many years Since I did my scuba classes, but I think one of the tanks about halfway empty That's when you start making your return journey Or just before then, you know, you want to give yourself ample You know fuel and stuff to get back So I mean one of those nice little bitty touches that would make the world feel a little bit more real What would an actual jetpack kind of do if it was a a real product that was sold to people? That was the first time en masse we've ever seen like fuel running out that quick on all the jetpacks It's kind of like whoa. I guess it's a montage. We don't know how how long they went, right? Do you think they chased it like halfway across the planet? They're like finally the jetpack runs out I guess logically it makes sense that they didn't go very far because they had to walk back and they made it back before Bo Katan did in her ship, right? It didn't make more sense than to not chase it at all though to just be like we know where it's going Let's use this. Yeah, let's let's hop in this spaceship and go chase them Apparently they don't have any I was about to say they don't even know where it's going right because Bo Katan is the one that finds out where it went They never found out where its nest was Always run out of fuel chasing it is tradition. I guess like that's what you do And then you run out and then we don't get the kid back. That's what I was waiting all month for this Finally a foundling got captured I can't believe they don't have any star ships at all like they just Got a space uber and just can we go to this planet one way please I like the part where they flew to right under the nest camp for the night And quietly went to the nest the next day to rescue the kid without any sense of hurry And then suddenly the past Vizsla guy is worried that the kid is in danger because he remembered it's his son Oh, right. That's my son. That one's my son. It's hard to tell him apart when he's like He's like rushing and stumbling to get the kid. It's like, oh god, my son. It's like when was what? Do you think they only have those hands on because every time they tap into action They get a little sound bite from the Mandalorian like they jump into anything Like over the headset I think that's the reason why giant speakers in the world that play that sound effect and they hate it And pad themselves from it. Yeah, I really like the fact that past Vizsla suddenly spawned a kid The book above a fet was only three of us left Mandalorian season three my son I mean, it's probably would be like, yeah, wait, didn't they say there's only three of us left? I know the speech that mando gave when he was rallying the troops to go back to our navari He said those of you who do know who grief cargo is it's like well those of you Here's an only two of you everybody else that's here wasn't there, right? It's like they've forgotten their own history that only because when I was thinking about that line It's like wait a minute No, there was only three of you left who's mandoed. I'm a blacksmith lady There's a delete episode where they all went to meet him. They went to his birthday party Haven't any shot out there Hey group I just I brought you I brought you present All right, well, I see that you're in a mood. I'll be back. So totally tell this is all so unplanned Like it's like, oh, yeah Remember when the army of bounty hunters fought the army of mandaloreans and sees and that he betrays the bounty hunters Almost specifically because it's like they established in the universe like those guys the bad guys mando is making the good Good move, even though he welches on the deal steals the money and the kid, which was always like that's right He's the best guy. He's still benefited from it all. Yeah. He's a piece of shit in that in that moment He's like, yeah, fuck the kid. I'll get the stuff. There's like, I guess I'll get the kid too Using the stuff because it's so fucking good. This has become one of the most unintentionally hilarious shows. I've ever seen I was pretty funny a long time. I suppose it wouldn't be out like batwoman, but it's No, they're different. They're different animals same zoo, but different animals It's because like the budget is higher, I guess and it takes itself so seriously Yeah, I think a lot of shows ride by on sheer confidence But um, yeah, loads are just funny moments at this point that you know when they're making it. They're like, this is cool And you're like, yeah, I think mando really needs to ask grogu. So you're actually an infant or just an asshole Sometimes he does things an infant shouldn't be able to do Uh, but other times he has the intelligence of an infant There are a good chance that grogu's just pretending to be an infant so he can get away with being a complete dick to people Yes, 100 i think that's the case. He'll have moments of high intelligence or Intuitiveness and then sometimes you'll just be like, I want to fuck you eat that baby So I can just yeah, i'm a baby. Ha ha googoo. I eat that baby I think we joked about this in earlier seasons There would be a that there would be a reveal at the end where grogu was actually like a villain And he was working towards some goal using mando and that he would reveal At the end that he was like, no, no, I'm totally sentient. I'm here. I'm actually quite powerful with the force I can understand everything. I could speak fine. But yeah, I mean that would be hilarious It's a little revelation at the end part of the idea could have been to use testing mando Different vision of what yoda was up to in an empire that when you found him more than capable of speaking But was just going to see what mando would do with him what mando's goals were but obviously we've thrown that out by now He's a fucking goober baby who just is an idiot, but sometimes isn't he'll be cheater as well And they're the dual with the kid the other foundling Oh, like once and grog was like ppp. I win What if when grogu jumped up that kid just fucking punched that baby right out of the air He's like, he's just like, ah, and he's punched him, you know It's like, um Just like one of those instinctive punches when someone jumps out at someone Like they pretend to be a bush and then the guy and the guy's like, oh shit, and he just punches the bush man That's what should have happened. He should have punched. He punched that baby Punched that baby. Oh boy. That's a tronky boy Ah, um Back into clone wars. Well, you have to read his name The Up to him. Yeah, he does choice You have to read this name. I was buying metal decide yourself Metal, you look at that name. You have to say it out loud. Let me look at the name. Okay. That's pretty funny tasseled wobba gong That was a pretty good name Making a clone wars cartoon the radical traditionalist death watch was led by a man named pray vis-la Who almost certainly related to paas vis-la from this show and he allied with and was eventually killed by maul This act split death watch into two maul loyalists who believe he fairly won the right to rule These mandos often added horns to their helmets exactly like the armorer here Okay, and vocetan's group that rejected him because he was an outsider and clearly didn't have mandalore's best interest in mind In disney's canon death watch had another even more radical traditionalist splinter group The children of the watch who plays a lot of emphasis on foundlings i.e outsiders both openly critical of the cotw But her rule of mandalore getting the planet killed pushed her even more extreme to the point that she's trying To properly earn that magic sword via combat. It's worth mentioning that maul killed pre pre vis-la i want to say pras vis-la every time with the dark sabre and claimed the death of his own But purely as a symbolic gesture not because of any silly rules both basically stuck reliving that fateful day warping Her own memory of the event while she's at it. That's a lot of lore that I never heard of before which is to say that din jarin vocetan paas vis-la and the armorer should have an absolute Shit lot to say to each other, but I guess the Heck night I don't even know what that means Heck need never heard that before german. Yay. You saved my boy with friends. It's good enough Guess i'm not too surprised though a soka meeting luke should have been a huge moment But book of boba fed decided to have it happen off-screen Understood I was just pissed terrified of character interactions That is so much so many things that's Actually any of this it happened this all this may as well not have happened They don't treat each other as any one of interests none care about each other's histories. It's insane. It's so much to get They have all the reason to have all the conflict and the clone was cut to it is like current canon, right? That's not I assume so as far as I know So what the fuck surely all the mandalorian clone wars People so they'd be really upset that none of this is mentioned Like if you're super autistic about the whole mandalore factions clone warshow thing Then you must be screeching constantly at why these characters are just not themselves and they're not saying anything Even i'm screeching a little bit that this is a mentioned I don't know anything about it in context, but it's like come on. Tell me about this seems really really important It's also so easy to to characterize Fucking characters full ones move all these things. You've got a bunch of history playing into it Yeah, and they have characters who should all have different perspectives on these on these matters But like it's as though these are the things that happen and the characters are involved in them But any sort of long lasting consequences or repercussions from those events on those characters is like irrelevant It's just not factored into the writing. It's very strange And it's like rags were saying it's kind of odd that you would like the clone wars and watch this and see that None of that uh history is being integrated here and be happy with it At some point you should be like these aren't these characters. They can't be yeah, yeah You have bizarrely compartmentalized these shows in ways that doesn't make sense It's like if you had obi-wan kanobi Meeting darth maul in a later like spin-off show and they just never acknowledge their history or anything together Yeah, exactly. Yeah, and you have like maybe a moment where Fucking darth maul had a different master or an apprentice that dies in front of obi-wan when they're on submission Where they're forced to fight together and nobody mentions anything about like, oh, yeah I've experienced that thanks to you actually if you remember phantom men it's movie that happened remember and then they read out the whole Like script it's like yeah, maybe maybe like remember things And then all of the fates plays yeah, it'll make your show easier to be more powerful if you just remember things Oh, well, I've said superpower, but it's just writing. Yeah Fucking normal because like you know like a strange example, but it's like really annoying that when we first meet Older cassey in ant-man. She's like oh, yeah I have a suit and i'm fucking around to the point where the police almost got all the tech and hank doesn't care And it's like no hank should care more than anybody. He should be the one that's like what the fuck Why does she have a suit correct me if i'm wrong? I need to re-watch the fucking first one I don't know when I'll ever do that though. He only gives the suit to Scott and not his daughter because he says it's too dangerous, right? And he's worried about what happens to people who use the suits because of what happened to janet And he's willing to let scott do it because i'm willing to let hope do it basically Yeah, because ultimately if scott was to die he's incredibly protective of the tech because that was exactly he left Shield because they were messing around with uh the pimp article and then he swore that nobody would ever get the formula But in quantum anion it's like a fucking hippy dad who's like how is it in jail? He oh you having fun with the quantum fleams. Oh look, we made a little telescope that goes down into the quantum verse He's not that complicated and you forgot Yeah, you just completely forgot how he was characterized and now you can't benefit from that You just have nothing and that's kind of what this show is done with all these characters apparently I hadn't seen the show or at least the these episodes But like look at all this stuff Use it the fact that all of these mandaloreans Collectively decided to train outside when they are under frequent attack from el croco and das kinder And das kinder shredder are not even the most stupid faction of star wars is quite the achievement They're still ranking it a decent place for intelligence. So don't worry. Oh my god. It's the The constant like we've been Been saying this since the first season If you like the mandaloreans Fucking why why what a bunch of incompetent buffoons? What a bunch of morons? They look silly. They act silly. They have blast as an armor When he every blows someone up it goes SCVs from starcraft 2 are more cool than the mandaloreans geez Yeah, perlame. Well, think of the cool fact as someone like the merchant has in Resident Evil 4 Even though he's like this scraggly scraggly old dude who's just crawled around the world with his little weapons It's like like he's not he's not like a knight with armor and weaponry and he can fly and has a deeper Voice and a helmet and you know like something that's basically like in the cool book You snatched all the fucking defaults I guess what i'm trying to comment on is like you can make anything really cool The writing is always going to be the thing that essentially defines it Here we are with these guys getting all their cool sapped completely to the point where they're just clowns that fly One of the greatest embodiments of filler i've ever seen you really begin to see the effects of a no planned ending of the mandalorian Yeah, that's what was said about it. And it's like, but this is what you meant. It just keeps everything going Everything just keeps I think um what's become so apparent at this point Especially when it comes to the dynamic of mandor and baby Yoda is they gotta find a reason to keep baby Yoda in there because he's just too good of a merchandising opportunity to like ever let leave the show and Actually go on a journey or like, you know age out of being cute and like become more of a character And so now it's stagnant like where are we going? It needs to persist in this state forever But the problem is that like that's not really how storytelling works Well, remember they even cashed um the payoff way too early of them splitting up in the end of season two It was like a goodbye. This is it. This is our journey is coming to an end and people treat it that way They're like, wow, what an amazing journey it was and that was like So good in it. Yeah, I'll do it. You're like, that's bad enough not even in the show Are you like what fucking boot up episode one? There he is with with baby Yoda, which some people They were some people who didn't watch boba fat So they were just like what why and you're like, well Loser you missed out and then there are people who are like after watching boba fat and kanobin Should I only watch an andor and it's like, oh It's not even slightly fair It's like they've made all the worst decisions with the resources they have They had including good like like preset good tv show They made the worst possible decision with that one It was the it was going to be the least watched by putting it with andor Like people don't even know who that is which I mean Yeah, that that pushes us to the good old episodes. Was everyone ready? Oh, I'm ready Oh Look, it's me and the lore. They're on me and the lore. I guess we're going back to me and the lore I got back to mandalore. Yeah, okaton kreeze is going off to bring other mandaloreans in exile to Okatajliras mandalore It is time to retake mandalore Retake it from who from the yeti's who live underground It's probably funny that they got given a plot of land permanently on navarro I'm there just immediately going to leave and go back to mandalore. They've also got the deal on this planet. What was this called? Palluthin 2 or something while exploring mandalore. I was captured I mean, I kind of got beat by the general grievous guy and she killed him. So I don't know. I just can't believe this is the thing. We memed about this. Yeah, but and now they do it It's the stupid rule. Oh, that looks bad. If I were the mandalorean lads there I'd be like you made that up. You just made that up, didn't you? I found a derelict new republic shuttle Flight times match the ship transporting moff gideon The moff gideon didn't show up to trial and it's like oh, he never made it. Like oh, well, he didn't make it I think that would be in the news. Like do we have a search warrant for him or something? It seems pretty big Pershing. Oh, wow. He's here I'm super happy now Well, uh, yeah, I don't know. I guess I think what's gonna happen Nope, like we said in like every third episode. It's like, I remember when that was cool when we saw that Blacksmith lady in there She doesn't even need a name. Just armor is good enough. Yeah, it's so good of a character. She is Coruscant. Yay And look it's like the the the little sleazy part of Coruscant darker and wetter and more neon looks neat looks like a I love I love the aesthetic of like the man star wars 1313. You could have been so cool You could have been so cool Oh, well, because you already know you already know whatever this is. It's in favor of a shitty scripts probably It's shame. I yeah, I love this Yeah, oh, so this is office of lady. She's uh, well, yeah, uh, I'll offer you for her She was almost trying to sabotage navarro getting assistance Oh, no evil droid It's a spy robot. We're the fuck with these guys for the bad guys use this Why would you use one of these? No one knows that these are evil-looking ones Don't trust these they're black and red. These ones are evil Go tk 2755 you have a face. You're good Yay, giddy is back. Everyone's favorite, sir. I'm afraid the pirates have run into trouble on navarro Are those events were connected wait the pirates work for the empire Remember that was what the pilot guy was saying the events are connected and he was right. What was the connection though? How did they figure that out? I haven't written so in the script and plan up which means they're connected. Okay Boca-Tan Cree's let a squadron of Mandalorians alongside dinjarin and he's covert To be fair though, they only really needed Boca-Tan Amanda Mandalorians teaming back up sir. You could move further into the alley. Yeah I shall deal with our Mandalorian friends. Oh, no big. We'll see there. You already got a big wall setup Mando's versus new empire Wait was his hologram not how did it this hologram not have the thing with Why are they just standing around? Yeah, why are these Why are there people in there? Are they people or are they robots to look at them? They've got like the mandostorm troopers There you go. Mando stormtroopers is the new thing. Oh and clones. Oh god. This is gonna be great for the theory crafters Hey, there's a fortune to be had plundering the hyperspace. Oh, he's evil. You could tell by his face You're a citizen's loyal to the empire. They're already getting sick of this new republic. It's been 17 minutes though It would have been nice to have implied that anything like the Grand Admiral Thrawn Great Ron right in time after the announcement. Yeah, it's also fucking merchie Thrawn's return will provide commandant huts enough time to deliver on project necromancer Oh, did they say hux? Yeah, that's probably his dad, isn't it? Grand Admiral Thrawn is missing From your delegation. Don't worry. He'll be in Ahsoka Our one hope for success relies upon the secrecy of his return Secrecy. I'm confused. Like Thrawn alone is just what they need to win This move was like the matter really seeping in right because he's more popular So like his position is inflated to a greater degree than it was originally Oh, he sucks, but it was always the next step. They've squandered everything else Like what else is left like the popular ship from the eu now. That's what projects necromancer Project necromancer It's gonna be Snoke and Palpatine Dr. Pershing was captured by the new republic So were you by the way for a short amount of time So Gideon sabotaging that aspect of the empire then because that was his operation I account for what goes on in my sector no more No, that's not true because you about the thing you said about whispers across the galaxy that you know about I hear whispers from one end of the galaxy to another and yeah, they're right Aren't they his operation on Navarro was all cologne stuff. We scrape and claw resources awaiting the grand plan to take shape What is the plan? Don't you have like meetings where you exchange notes and information? You just said they're amassing countless resources. How how yeah, like how do you actually like it requires factories and planets and secretly Organizations. Oh look Pretoria gods. Yeah Reinforcements for your tie interceptor squad. Yeah, they're useless though. They are pretty useless And what is your security concern? Mandalorians Mandalorians what not them. They're amazing and so did you know they have armor that protects them from everything We should probably invest in that A certain mandalore would hamper our efforts. Why just pay them to work for you. Yeah, most of them are mercenaries at this point Yeah, let's pay them just bomb them from orbit once they settle down Yeah, yeah, they don't even have ships any of them. There's not many of your reinforcements And your guard. Wow, that was enough to convince them. I guess they really want to take out the Mandalorians When did this happen that Mandalorians are the one thing that would stop the empire like Just now it might Well, it may have been like when mandalore was actually a fucking functional planet But right now there's what 20 of them 50 I know The empire is like mind them Remember those little death robots in season two they could have annihilated loads of Mandalorians Mando just got super lucky with them. Yeah, just fucking pay them. All right. Make more of them. Those kill robots were great Oh, look, they're rebuilding. I'll get the barrel. Don't worry guys. I got there. That's a funny looking alien. Well, look c3po, but not He always has to come in to tell him about yeah, thanks a lot With the empire here Oh, that's a lot. These are the Mandalorians, right? That's a light cruiser in second It's not Imperial then Was yeah, but the markings look at the markings markings. Yeah. Why how could it scan them without seeing the mark? To the point that's not even it's not even a good idea like that loses their stealth aspect Well, are you telling me this right from full of Mandalorians all of them Aspect right because the empire is they're not this is the new republic now This is the army that bokeh town collected. Apparently she stole all this from the empire Well, why wouldn't they message ahead and let them know that he's that's another thing that should have happened Yeah, because that's the reason I thought they were imperial. Why would the droid have made that mistake? It's like well, my data's out of uh So how many Mando's are in there then must be a lot It's a big that's so fucking funny dude. They didn't call ahead like by the way We're about to land a whole fleet above your city Don't worry. It's a mat. It's got massive fuck off cannons and everything on it But we do look evil so they'll know but we're not don't worry about it I must have taken them ages to paint that skull on the bottom. Oh, yeah They must have like how many gallons of paint. Yeah, this will be so interesting to see the two clans meet finally You seem like very silly spaceships that have to do this when they take off and land. They're cool. We're actually look at them Oh, okay. They're just as cool as the Mandalorians. Well, they mix in matching colors Look at that guy on the far right. Yeah, he does look happy about his suit colors Play Seriously, can we tell apart or from like Yeah, they're the blue guys Some of those the guys look bluish though That is this meant to mean anything this meeting really? No, I guess They're gonna tell us for the sake of the cooking conflict why these guys meeting means anything. They haven't done that yet Like we have different creeds. Okay. Are they just gonna shake hands? It'd be so funny if they all just open fire Oh, fuck off. Oh, no Not you I have Hit the habit of justice. We invite you to make a cup Let us prepare a feast for our guests from what stone your feast Yeah They just look over and uh, they look over at uh grief cargo like come on make a feast He's like what the mandos have enough food to feed like it's like a fucking obby of you guys. Oh, there he is He's just here now. He's walked here. I guess Welcome gift to celebrate on Romulan mail. This is not blue Ale is blue Yeah, but it's the gloss the color to that way. It's blue in there. That's not the only gift I have for you I have another bottle Oh, fuck IG 11 Look, he's fine now. Oh, he's retarded So first question is he trying to kill me like always Oh, that's kind of fun that's IG 12 now. Do you like him? Do I like him? Well, I mean that's what this is all about mando. It's just satisfying your weird addiction to this robot They've removed his memory circuit. Oh, so it's no he just can't remember why he kills The pilot provides cognition so the robot doesn't work on its own So you just have this incredibly vulnerable midget inside of it. Yeah, it's not even fully armored up So grogo is going to control it. Is that what we're doing? But if a grogo is a baby that is at least an adult creature of its kind He's too little to operate. No, it's not about him. He's literally a baby What's the actual fuck what I designed the IG unit to be that baby you ought to compile it here But it's but it's a baby. Do you think that this is even in the robot shinji But but it's a baby I don't even know if it knows what words are grogo is too young to operate heavy machinery. Oh, thank god. Thank god What do you mean? No No, it's just gonna be how yoda can talk now. Maybe yoda has a button that says no I don't even know that's how it works. Get him out of there. No, no at least let him try it out my office Yes, oh wait, so the so grogo can't understand the words people are saying isn't this like revolutionary for their relationship He can actually speak to grogo directly now. Maybe you should start with Do you understand what I'm saying? Yes or no and it says yes, and you're like wow This whole time you fully understand what I say and you clearly you did not act like it. Why is this what they're doing? I don't know. Why do you even need the pop the head anymore then the whole reason That baby yoda does not need an IG 11 unit to fucking walk around is because he shouldn't be going on these crazy adventures anyway Oh, I guess we're just doing this now. Okay It's not even armored up. You know why they didn't want armored up fully, right? It's because we need to handle his cute face was impressing any buttons when the yes happened And also mando just doesn't care that ig 11 the ig 11 He knows who saved him who he specifically wanted to revive is like still dead Yeah, that's a squash bitch. Oh, he's just stealing food But it's not is it a baby or not? Does he understand how things work or not? That's right. Give me buddy. Hey, you can't steal shit. Oh, there you go again No, yes All right, it's meant to be funny. This is such a great idea. See uh, oh Why are you being a brick? Why isn't it also shielded? It should have a cover that comes down. Yeah, that's like It's so dumb It's a it's a flair. So do we just sit around being boring assholes How much time do we just waste on that insane development? Well, let's just carry on It is time to retake our home world. Even though the planet is not cursed. There are still dangers. What it's a cave people There's some Yeah, we're never before you'll slaughter with your weapons dormant species have been awakened from the bomb What do you mean dormant species have been awakened? Is she talking about the creepy robot man? Well, but the myth is still not going to bother them Which is why I'm proposing that we leave navarro and move the fleet into orbit above mandalore Yes, do that. I mean, yeah, I mean like fuck. Yeah, we can go back to our home planet That should have happened in episode three, but you know The great forge and establish a safe perimeter only then will we bring down the others? Bring down the other what is she talking about the fucking cave people? Seriously? I'll bring down the mandaloreans onto the planet. Oh I need volunteers from both tribes. You may as well take them all Here What else are you doing? Just go. Yeah, like why wait at the top when you could need them to help you Why are they so hesitant that he just he just told you that your home planet is None of them came out. It doesn't matter. Oh, why aren't you going? Except mando, of course mando kids. Shouldn't you be chomping at the brogu? Why grogu? Why why? I wouldn't you leave him here leave him with grief kaga. He's super chill I will go Oh, listen the music's getting more. I'm an extra dresser. All right. Paz, vizsla, whatever. He's got to say yes, right? Oh that guy too. Oh the important. Yeah, there he is Never just regular mandos. All right now. It's right. No now. It will be here. Come the red shirts. They still get killed Hello, I am character. I will come with you. I will go. It's boring as fuck around here I mean all of them should go I will go as well. Oh good god the armor is coming Maybe the armor will finally die Remember when we thought this was going to be a space bounty hunter show? Yeah What even how do you describe what is happening? We're having the empire versus mandalore That's what this is Wait, what are the other ships going for just to take the big ship, right? I'm guessing everybody's going Yeah, so it's like was it rags you said earlier or three that like they've got their space on navarro? No, they're just gone Now they're leaving so well, so it's later. Did it tell the mayor like we're going by the way Well, is he with them? I could I could honestly see them bringing him with them for no reason at all Having the mandos there are super useful to him considering he has no standing military. What do you We'll lose con shortly. Why are they bringing grogu? What the fuck so fucking irresponsible? He's the worst dad We're showing we know what life is going bad. It's fine. Oh, it's yellow light. It's solid So their goal is to land gonna be a red light soon And then find the great forge is what they said out some area to make sure it's safe set up a perimeter or something But we're not gonna have everyone land all of our firepower. Why don't you bring all the fighters down? Why not just land together like normal people? Why are they doing the dropship thing? Yeah, just like just go land and then everyone could walk around It's worse than I thought. Yeah, because you never checked. How how is it worse? It's been absolutely uninhabitable. Yeah, it was pig. It was annihilated. It somehow looks worse than that You said it was cursed What are you doing? Sometimes such stuff looks okay when it's cursed Okay, I thought he was gonna say something, but all right. Yeah, I'm just gonna wait here. Are the wait are these Dropships specifically designed for Mandalorians to like fall out of well dog troopers have jet packs, right? They fly normally you deploy like people Okay Yeah How many of them have rifles like one in Like pistols are cooler or X or pistol cooler. Yeah. Yeah, it looks like that's nothing here. You can land now You don't see that many cowboys and movies with rifles Yeah, you get it every once in a while but to have the cowboy aesthetic you have to have pistols You have to have inferior weaponry and also light machine guns Yes, you know landing zone secure landing zone. That's it landing zone secure Because we couldn't have just looked down and seen that it was by the way We have to have a bad ending because it's not the last episode This is the penultimate episode I'm putting money on either the armorer or chungo die in It's gonna be the second in command. It's gonna be the chick from uh, or the dude, uh, that she fought last Oh, one of those two. Yeah, I'd say those are the four He's gonna die that are very light because it won't be bow. Obviously. She's immune And mando is also immune. I feel like the armorer is immune too. I can see that But I could also see them killing her as like a spiritual mystical thing like being like with her passing We must unite. She was she was so good Then again, she's the only way they get fucking new armors. So what that logic was would ride again. It's like it's not really Doesn't resemble our earth logic. It's something else We'll survey the surface until we find the forge and create a safety zone Only then will we begin to bring down the settlers. I'm so excited Only if it's secure, we're gonna bring down the settlers. Who are the settlers? Are those mandos too? Is all those cave people they're just gonna fucking mow them down Yeah, how long have you been walking just why did you land closer to your destination? Where are they going? Are they just wandering? They're just looking for an entrance. I guess Really, why didn't they go? Why didn't they use the one the mando in bokeh town? No, is that retarded? That's why Oh, yeah, we legit are just wandering look how far away the fucking ship is now. It's not even you can't even see it Oh more empty barren. Oh, but there's something. We found something because it's really far away. What is he seeing? What's there? Flanking left they moved two meters left It's hardly flanking, but all right. Oh, yeah, maybe you should have brought him here. Damn it. The baby is now in trip. Wow This is is this the cave people ship the lorians on there. They got Oh Do you guys know where the test score is we do I cannot hear you man What you've got to come closer Yeah, no shit. I'm just baffled. There was actually people living here mando mando lorians. What is happening? Uh, what are these guys? Hey, you'll be nice over here. That'd be cute. That'll be really interesting You are the lady responsible for the purge of this planet. Where do you get your fuel from? Yes Oh, we're the realest mando lorians. Oh, they worship there. Okay. Why didn't you come last week? No, seriously. Give me one reason why you didn't come last week. It's not skinny peat I might be he's really skinny because he doesn't have a lot of food There's gonna be a huge action set pace then they Uh empire affiliated maybe they punished us because we refused to surrender. I did surrender I don't know if this is stuff we should already know should we know this should all the other mando lorians know this Well, hey, it's about time. Give us some insurm insurmation After our forces were annihilated in the night of a thousand tears Night of a thousand tears like a 12 year old right this I think they were influenced by sit other events of history, but they did dave it very well I met with mofkidion. Wait, that didn't happen in clomels, did it? I thought mofkidion was new In exchange for submitting to the empire all remaining cities and mandalorian lives were to be spared That is how mofkidion came to possess the darksaber. This must be stuff that happened between the shows, right? I guess I didn't trust him But it was the only chance I had to save our people But you didn't trust him So you did trust him a little bit and then he betrayed me and We were helpless to resist the purge of mantelor man Like that should be really consequential and meaningful to like every character in different ways We were hidden on the moon of concordia. Oh, you death watch. No, who names ourselves that Our people have suffered time and again from division and squabbling factions See she's talking about it so broadly that we don't get to know anything about it Yeah, and how much of this should rest on her specifically like you were a big player in that, right? Mandalor has always been too powerful to defeat say a little by death star Or just some random stormtroopers in uh that we sent to navarro that cleans you up Yep, and it is kind of funny who'd be like, you know, oh, we could only be destroyed from within or something It's like no the empire destroyed you. I had no idea We were taught that everyone but us had forsaken the way That's stupid that you were selfish and uncaring god. They just believe anything. They're told don't they? Yeah I was selfish and this is what it brought. I don't get it. How she selfish for trying to save her brain Maybe she is actually talking about the crazy mall stuff. I don't know for thousands of years We have been on the verge of extinction. Wait, so mandalore has been undefeatable, but also you've been on the verge of extinction Y'all suck. Yeah, y'all are very confusing You're like someone who always keeps almost losing like rim world That for the colony gets demolished, but you you survive I felt like an insert shot. I think that blade's gonna play a role in this episode What means more to me is honor and character. These are the reasons I serve you lady crease. I serve you Yeah Your song is not yet written. I will serve you Until it is why she sucks. No, it's official because he has no goals. Yeah, exactly now There you go. He's here. We're doing mando stuff. He's here soldier now. That's his job This is the season of pivoting the mandalore in a way. We're moving mando out He's uh, I wouldn't be surprised if I can dies to save her in the next season or something Because gudger Pascal would rather be doing shows where he can play a character. Yeah Most people would we'll rest tonight and continue at first light Please here are two weeks to continue. What wait, so they just bumped into a bunch of people that were near death I guess so So you don't need to return you can tell the others to come here. Well, it's a microcosm for it's a microcosm for the mandaloreans They're almost near death always So no rags. They're undefeatably near death. Those of you who are well enough can join us in the search for the great forge We can bring you there. There you go. Oh, that's cool. Oh good thing you bumped into him I was about to say it's a they showed like them looking for a while, but this is still a planet Yeah So we're gonna tell the others like hey nice from the remnants of a whole planet civilization Is the idea though that like half of them are starving to death and that now they're gonna go get saved So they're taking them back up. Why didn't you all fucking land? Yeah, okay, calm down soundtrack. Nothing interesting is happening. Stop showing me that ig unit. I'm so mad All right, if you want to say leave the clouds, there'll be like mofkidians. Yeah, I was about to say the same. Yeah Yeah, yeah, I'm so surprising it could die. They could kill her Killer she's boring. Oh, maybe not. Okay. Maybe not. Yeah, I don't know. It's still time. This is possible because they haven't done the betrayal Yeah, I think I think we're getting there. How do you power doing this now? What do we eat? Look space chest It's a flight job And you're about to submit. No, I just told you you're not playing in the rules Oh, I guess we're using different rules. That makes it awkward to play the game. These primitives make up their own rules for everything Oh Now I don't know if I want the armor or him to die more Oh, we're doing this. Yeah, why not? We got we got time to waste I guess If the empire didn't show up the Mandalorians would have just killed themselves with board games Well, remember this is what this is what she was talking about bokeh Todd He just punched him in his helmet, by the way, like in his fine. Remember they did that shit in the other season Neither side can step in it was bound to happen sooner or later It was bound to happen sooner or later fucking show some leadership and stop them Yeah, you fucking morons. I'm actually okay with you having a fight over something that matters This is a fucking chess. What was that? Lord game, dude We're gonna get his ass kicked again. Is this job just to get beaten in fights? Yeah Oh the baby stopped them. I can't believe the baby is showing more maturity than all of the yeah And I like how mando let that happen. He's like, yeah, my baby can stop you guys from fighting You taught your apprentice. Well, they why didn't you do it? Yeah, you just said nobody's allowed to step in You didn't learn that from me. Wait, wait, wait, he did learn that from him season one where We'll and oh What's your name? But the lady got kicked out of the show. They have remember A baby Yoda Straggles it and that he's like, hey, don't straggler. That's me. He did actually teach him that Prepare to receive rescue survivors copy going late It's gonna get blowed up. Yeah, something's gonna He looked a bit he looked a bit nervous that guy didn't he he was nervous because he has nice looking armor And he is getting self-conscious because everyone else's looks like shit There on the starboard Oh, what don't go lamb. What stir is there now? It's a thunder battle. Oh, it is a giant monster. Wow. It's got Dilla Okay, move away Yeah, move away lads. Maybe yeah, just move somewhere else at least pump the brakes No, turn around don't don't head toward Godzilla. That's a bad idea. Turn around about face guys Why are you Okay, what are you? Oh now he's turning there you go What Oh, they're fucked. They're absolutely fucked Abandoned stuff. Oh look my baby is now in trouble Oh my god, you guys suck Also guarantee you that killed at least like five of them. Yeah, no way. They all made it out. Well done lads. Absolutely well We've never seen a faction so devastated by local wildlife. Yeah I wonder how they deal with like, you know The fox like roaches I like how not any of them actually go out to check if there were survivors. No, we're done with that next scene You good You good, baby. Why is the baby here again? Just let me know Uh, what about survivors? What about people who lived? All right. No, they're done for their sacrifice Remember nobody goes off trail. This is the way Unless you're spraying your ankles The reindeer lorians if you they're like the hard foots of space Little disgusting creatures dying to wildlife. Oh my god. It's actually a closer very close And remember they're hungry rags. They might start eating each other. Yeah. Yeah. Oh do it So is this the forge? Yeah, you didn't take that off me. No, keep it on now Yeah, why would you take it off? You might get attacked when they always You know, you're you're just doing it to be a dick to the ones who can't take their helmets off They're like, oh, look what we can do. This is what's left of the great forge This is what's the heart of our civilization? At least he's having a reaction to it lived here Well, not here here. This is the forge. We had an apartment about six blocks. It was real nice. It was bad Yeah, it was actually kind of nice. You'd think that we wouldn't you know, but that was kind of nice jetpacks Oh, it's empire there they are the the the mando empire troopers man troopers You can fly too guys. What an awful assault. It's not even a good ambush You just float in front of them. There was to have cover. Look, they all have the cover They're wearing best Armor god, wait, so this fight's just gonna go on forever then Yeah Nobody can lose the slow blade penetrates the best car I guess they have no communication because the weird atmosphere makes it so They can't they can't hurt each other. What's the tension? Yeah? Oh But he has armor they have best guy it looked like it sparked his armor and he's down. How does that work? I assume he just fell down. Oh, maybe No, no, what's going on their armor doesn't work. Maybe it's just the force are they oh, wow, exactly They're not like dying. They're just like having yeah, she's fine God this sucks Oh, they fell off you losers that's like the only way you could die What's that line from pirate to the Caribbean? Are we supposed to be fighting into judgment day? Yeah, like that Do the trumpet sound? Oh my god, it's john wick. No Oh, that'll do it. I guess a knife here. Well, I mean Just go between the slits and the armor in it. That's how you do it Oh, did she actually shoot him between like in the neck? I don't even know It's hitting their armor. He can't do shit He was funny, by the way, anyone that dies they're sitting on like countless credits like just lying Why did you bring him Man, this baby is kind of a liability and also in danger. Oh generic hallway All right, so this is like an empire base then. Oh, I guess that's like, yeah How did they not know about any of this? Oh my god, this is so retarded Kind of like it's like it's got running electricity. Look at the life. Yeah. Yeah, specifically What is happening? My god, if he's taking all the shots with his best, they keep shooting them in the armor and it's like that doesn't kill him Yeah, only like 60 percent of Manda was covered. Yeah. There's an empire base here the rest of them isn't Okay, we did the thing. We've fully restocked Gideon in his army. Gideon's gonna show up any second now We'll be like what you don't realize is that this was all my plan What is this place? Oh, is it actually all his plan? Oh, they locked out Mando Darksaber now they're gonna darksaber can cut through that lightsabers can cut through blast doors darksaber go Oh, what you doing, buddy darksaber you set it up earlier. You mentioned it darksaber You need to Mando's actually being defeated. You need to get the darksaber Yeah Oh Darksaber what are you doing? I'm actually defeated Mando, but she has the darksaber right there. Yeah Oh, look, he's got the horns. He's got the horns. I am Darth Mandalorian He's got me rockets too. My name is Darth Empire Why isn't she cutting through with a darksaber? Because this is stupid. Hello Kind of destroys all the tension, doesn't it? Yeah, I know it was you. I don't remember me. I'm from that one tv show You really like where I was the bad guy. You were a talented people, but your time has passed Mandalore will live on in me. Yeah, you'll be defeated next episode, man. Thanks to your planet's rich resources I have created the next generation Yeah, we don't see these in the sequel trilogy though. What happened to us? That's why we have them white, but we still call them dark troopers. Trust us The most impressive improvement and we copied you guys. We didn't have a full lava suit We left loads of gaps Okay, take off your helmets doing you cowards. I want to see all of them. I want to see all these expositos out there Where the fuck is the darksaber? Wasn't it here? I will create an army That will bring order. No, you won. We know that you won. You're gonna have to feed next episode The sequels don't exist kind of Why don't we take your fleet off the board activate the interceptors and bombs? Oh, no the fleet No, even though your fleet was pretty damn The fleet's larger than a handful of bombers We'll also send one of the mandos up there. So maybe a base map escotter Best cop fighters do it Dark fight in but a few moments the purge of mandalore will be complete Shut up. Next episode. You're all gonna get killed. Also kill mando. Take his helmet. Take his helmet. Take his helmet Take his helmet stab him in the neck No Kill him right now you fool. I just realized by the way mando could have used his whistling birds before he got Captured too, but he didn't I should have killed you when I had the chance. You can still kill him. You have a darksaber Bo katana We have to stop meeting like this if you were so eager to part them Why did you let those fuckers on the planet lift this whole time you've been here so long turn on the love events I was gonna say just fill the room with gas now. This is a preemptive trap They had this prepared so fill it with gas or just just wait until they dive thirst that too now Surrender the darksaber and she's got to actually cut through the door. It's gonna be so fucking funny if she cuts through She's gonna go to the other side and cut it right But you could have cut either side why Why didn't you do that earlier like what the fuck open the blast door Now you're opening that that just that just levels the playing field if you open the blast Okay, man, if only you had your nades you could kill them all right now How fucking dumb I can't believe this shit. I love how the the ambush was we lock you in a room and then unlock the room There's nothing we're gonna die here. Oh, is he gonna do the You're covered in best card. Just leave. No, he's gonna say all of you have to go I gotta stay for no reason at all. I gotta stay He just needs to back up All he's gonna do just just got the door. Nah, he's staying. Yep. It's over. It's over Wow, does that gun not overheat ever cheese We're clear go back. No, I gotta stay because the script said so Come on. We're not leaving you behind. How come you're dying from his shots? They're wearing this. This is the way Say it. This is the way. No, why? Oh, no, he didn't He didn't say it. Oh, I just closed it on the other side. No This is the way You know, but you can still cut through the door and save it But what about your son? You have a son, remember? No, it's fine. No, okay. No, you could have closed the door jump through as well, but uh, oh look, it's over here kind of It is. Yeah, it's only like four laps to go. He's killed like a thousand Oh, no, he's getting tagged. He's going down his health bar. No. Oh, no, he's not hurt at all Oh, no, he's oh, no, he is in no way injured It'll be a big Why not? There'll be some big explosion. He's going to be killed. He continues to be impervious to Damage, maybe Moff Gideon will get the final shot They're not doing shit. Nothing is happening. Just just tackle them too and you win. They're not doing anything to you He's just win. He's like, oh shit. Yeah, I forgot I had infinite health. What's the reveal? All right, oh the praetorian god He's probably like what the fuck is this are you guys just worse than those guys because they had guns You feel a little tiny? Dude, if he still had his gun, they'd be fucked Oh, no pas bizzla, no Oh, no, you should have had better positioning than to walk in the middle of them. He's going down. No, not this guy Oh, I guess they can oh, he's on the side. I don't wait. Can that go through beskar? I don't fucking know They're digging them into him. He's dead now That's it for him. My favorite pass. Thank god. Oh, no Oh, bye Most pointless death ever. This is 17 million credits lying on the floor. Yep. Yeah I Will think dude all of those other bodies as well, right? Like, that's it. Okay. Who wrote? Yeah, of course. Yeah, there we go Damn, is that the worst episode of the season? Oh god. There's so many Well, this one will be liked more so but I think I think by people so much action in it. There's so much pu pu in it That was like consequential, I suppose. Yeah, that's the other thing story actually happened in this one So people will like it for that And that gives like reinforce and set up any of the stuff that happened here like in the prior episodes in the season I get the impression You know when we ask for characters to have interactions when like a gun is a John Favreau's head and we're like you absolutely now because it's near the end of the season You have to tell story. You have to have characters. He's like, okay. Okay. Okay, and we get that scene where she's like Yeah, you know, I gave up because I was trying to save you guys And uh, yeah, that's that and nobody has much to say about that and it's like there you go I did it character and it's like That other people there had something to say that's what I'm saying That's what he doesn't do it that is him doing it. Like I'm sure he's like god I'd give them a huge amount of character in this episode, huh? It's like, yeah, man We matter like a handful and nobody else really has a perspective on anything Mando certainly doesn't have a perspective God, it's so bad. Look at giant Godzilla. Let's run right into Yeah What the fuck there's so many of them. It was so pointless as well because they arrived at their destination Yeah, and then just get blown up. It's like, oh, okay Can you imagine they're like, let's just you know, they arrive in the script and they're like, that's boring Make it so Godzilla is there and then That'll be funny. And it's like, okay, and then the CGI artists are like for fuck's sake I'm right after that guys in case that wasn't enough. You've got like Mando Stormtroopers I said, it would fucking happen. It's another they've got that scaling problem They need something to make us feel like we might actually lose and then we won't lose next episode and it's like, oh, thank goodness We did it Where they are now is becoming so stark to me though because like you're right None of this is in the sequels They've got this story that they want to build up But like it all still leads to the sequel trilogy where like none of this Is relevant. We know it's all going to get resolved in that big Mando movie now, I guess It's just like john wick as you got like was mentioned is um, you realize Finally Bascar's kind of amazing and it should be used by other people You're like, oh, what if the empire used it's like, of course the fucking empire would use it What do you mean? What if it's been one of my biggest complaints about this like the world building of star wars Kind of since the beginning the lack of armor that anyone uses the shields that the droidek has used Because it throughout all of star wars you see random objects stopping blaster shots Even like thin pieces of metal or crocodiles things on the environment Crocodiles. Yeah, they should be wearing crocodile hide Yeah Is armor, but like seriously no one wears like kevlar vests or the the space equivalent of it No wears plates you would think that in star wars there would be this like oh everyone uses blasters I should wear something blaster proof because of the nature of my vocation But no one does and now they introduce Bascar and it's a thing you could just sort of have and it's kind of Insane and it was now that the empire were like, you know those mandos. They've got a good idea with that armor It's just so crazy how like mandalora is this planet that exists with this crazy like natural resource And like we just have to presume that the new republic didn't care to look into it Even though mandalora is like an important place give it a star wars world It's a relatively important place and they never looked into it But Moff Gideon is it are we meant to actually believe that this like ties in at all to like season one and two Amanda that this was where it was all leading Something we'll need is baby Yoda's have a force payoff in the next episode Yeah, that definitely will or like he'll be piloting the ig 12 I guess he has to do something that makes all of his fucking contribution to the season have a point because otherwise It's useless It's almost like what's happened now is that the writers have realized that they need to actually like have a plot There needs to be something going on and that maybe it should be something that has some connections to character's history I could see like john and uh, Dave being like, you know these episodes These are the ones that'll get the fucking a million out of 10 scores because these are these We're putting all our our effort for storytelling and special effects and plotline in it And you're just like, you know guys You can just make this level of story happen in all the episodes if you wanted actually possible That's my full story where it's still piss. Oh, what I mean is like events taking place like uh Because of course, I think it's terrible But like the the you can tell you can feel that formula so hard like we've we've completely switched now Usually, I think we talked about this when we started up episode season two Episode one will usually have some kind of story in it because it's like foundational But this season really didn't that whole like, you know getting going going in the bath Like that was barely story, especially compared to that jack black lizzo episode that one and then this one It's like, oh, we've switched our goals again Like completely Imagine if they had taken the last episode and just not had it exist because it's worthless and fucking pointless And they could tell like at least work on trying telling a story that wasn't crammed full of these these clunky scenes together And they could actually spread it out to where it feels a bit more organic and we could spend some time with these characters The only reason the episode six the only thing you need from it is is them going to recruit the Mandalorians Because like the context that was provided was like worthless anyway We're back to like a different kind of sludge But like the kind of sludge that has been absent for this whole season of just throwing so much shit at the wall to see What sticks this is what that what this episode feels like you throw on everything you have There's Mandalorians and all sorts of different Mandalorians on Mandalore new empire like troops and stuff Revelations mando got captured. Wow. I can't believe that. I mean I can but I can't well You know what I can't believe is that they took his whistling birds off him once he was captured Like I said, he could have used it before that but he's too stupid But they don't take the helmet that they do take the jetpack, but they don't take the helmet I'm sorry But if you're an evil son of a bitch and you capture someone who desperately wants to keep the helmet on as part of their religion Aren't you taking that shit off straight away, especially when it's armor too? Well, yeah I wasn't available So that's true, but like what I'm saying is almost out of character. I could see Moff Gideon being like you little shit. I've got you remember how much you've pissed me off How much you've ruined my plans. Oh nice helmet. Boop. Actually Moff Gideon's actually being He's being pretty smart here because what Moff Gideon is thinking is no no no leave his helmet on so that he can't access any of our computers It'll recognize his face. I can't have that Like Mando used to be like impervious to harm and now he's starting to become vulnerable now that he's basically being transitioned out of the main Yeah, his plot armor is cycling over to Bo-Katan Yeah, because he got captured in episode two to all the crazy plot development stuff for Bo-Katan and then of course him getting captured here It's kind of incredible, isn't it the like the second he's no longer in the central character All of his traits are shifting over to her Since there's like three of you in chat right now who are qualified for this How does it feel to watch Mando Lorian get completely sidelined like your favorite character from your show there getting getting completely removed Bo-Katan is gonna save him next episode and it's gonna be epic And then they're gonna defeat the Mando Lorians and the Praetorian god And they're gonna capture Gideon again or he'll just narrowly escape on his ship saying i'll get you next time I want to keep him up until that Mando movie and oh definitely I'm not so they would never gonna kill him they might capture him again because that doesn't mean shit does it They're not gonna get rid of him before Thrawn shows up. Yeah, he's kind of like a Maybe Thrawn will kill him and that'll be how they like see Thrawn's a real cool, dude That's what I think. Yeah, that that could be an idea where they have Thrawn shot me kill him I think I would consider that one of our actual assets. He's an actor We can actually give him something and I guess I'm almost now curious of like there was a motivation of you know I want to see a planet that's just me. It's all me and my influence Like reflected in everything that's kind of interesting like I don't think it will be interesting But conceptually that's kind of like, you know, somebody who looked at essentially like Jango Fett And it's like man, look at all the Jango Fetts in the world What if it was me and I was in control and like I was in charge And so pity because we barely know anything about Moff Gideon after three seasons He really don't he's been the main villain for Now it's going to be about 24 episodes Well, I guess because he didn't show up. It's all right at the end of the season but like he is the main villain of this whole show and What what is to be said about uh, but Pat he Pat's Vizsla is dead now, though I'm so fucking sad about that. He's my favorite. Wait, who? Yeah, that one Oh, yeah, he was better too. What's funny? That was close to door after you go through and you fucking retard I'm so mad about I can't believe they they it was a trap that had no payoff They were just like you trapped now. I'd trap them It's like what was the point and they lost by the way if the mandos had stood and fought they would have won Fucking cowards. Yeah, I would have as Vizsla on his own defeated like 50 Yeah, it's so stupid Imagine they had two of these mini laser guns or rail guns or whatever you want to call them Yeah, and then Moff Gideon would be like, you know, we should invest in those They seem pretty good. How about Mandalorians get some fucking laser rifles as rags already pointed out They all have just stupid pistols He shot like 50 times in that stupid fight because he's incredibly large and slow target But the thing is nobody aims for his weak spots. They all hit him in the armor You think if you just randomly just by chance again, Mando is probably one of the most armored And maybe about 60 of his front surface is covered in armor So the chances of him never getting hit in his unarmored parts are actually Impossibly low. It's just not gonna happen Well, and uh, it's annoying too because when he when he's in melee mode like he his gun overheats or gets destroyed Whatever they all like try to fight him like one-to-one combat when they have jet packs When you just back the fuck up and keep shooting him Yeah, it's like you got jet packs. They just never come back choreography fucking sucks as it always does But I was gonna say though is against I could see people compliment in this episode Maybe they just too it's too far gone and they'll hit no matter what but you know previous episodes summarize Like well, they did a side quest. It was completed and they've met up with the other Mandalorians. You're like, okay What about this episode? It's like well, I mean if I'm being a little generous it's like Remnants of the empire all run a shadow council that have organized different resources together in order to Rise once again once a grand admiral throne has joined them And uh, they're worried about Mandalorians because they represent the biggest threat to stopping them Which I don't even know how much I buy that but whatever So they've uh, you know converged a lot of resources to trap them because they know that they're heading back to Mandalore And when they did it did some serious damage We've got our protagonist has been captured one of the main sort of I don't know soldiers that they have is dead and um, they're fleet They didn't really give us a told us what happened with the fleet. They just someone's happened with it Get attacked the thing is I don't even buy that because the fucking even 20 bombers I don't see what that's going to do against the fleet. We saw especially Crazy bokeh time ships that we saw what they can do They're like I'm saying Mando and her killed like what was it like 10? Tifiers interceptors too. Yeah, but we have red shirt pilots now. So they all gonna die. Oh, yeah We have expendable ones What I'm saying though is just that all of those things have happened and I could see people talking about like how Sino there is story stuff is happening. Yeah, there's stuff happening, but none of it They mentioned that's got a context less I could honestly see John Favre and Dave will only be and like people will love this because we said throne The throne was mentioned in season two as well. That was in the isoka episode But I guess that's what's funny is like he's showing up in a different show. What's that one gonna have to do with Mando? I'm sure Mando might pop up in its finale I wouldn't be surprised. I could I wish I had the quote But they they talked about the idea that this gonna become an avengers thing We're gonna get all of them from all the shows and it's gonna be that movie thing There was like a thing where Kathleen Kennedy was announcing all the shows some of which are not happening anymore Yeah In culminating in a big event and now we know what that event is. It's gonna be a Mando movie. So like This is so good. I'm not sure what other ones Which other ones will boke it on either. This is now her show or she's gonna get her own show. I'm not sure Um, I think they want to keep Mandalorian going as a show, but they'll just make this her show That'd be my guess rather than spin it off because like I think at this point It's pretty clear that like, yeah, we're sidelining Mando, which That's the thing that everyone's realizing is he's getting sidelining But the thing that we want everyone to realize is that they're not sidelining anything. He was never anything anyway He was never a thing. He was never a character. There was never anything that wasn't completely surface level Anything that was potentially interesting with him is far behind us or Katan is lame But she's not as lame as him. Like she actually does have some character in history. She made decisions Well, we can see your fucking face I don't that's a plus but like Yeah, like Mando could have been incredible and we didn't have to see his face, of course Yeah, but she is a person with motivations and goals in history. So like I will say though Side like I guess it's more just interesting in a matter sense on the implied point I'm guessing of what Ryzer said is that you get to know more about how she feels about stuff because it's more clear Him unfortunately, his voice tells you nothing Well, it's because I don't know what the direction is and what is he meant to latch on to in terms of motivations Who is he? Which is why I believe there's a big delay between two and three where he was negotiating staying in because he didn't fucking want to It's a worthless show if you if you knew this is where they're heading is fucking like why what does this do for you as an artist? It's so like worthless in terms of character. There's just nothing to be gleamed from it Yeah, I'm just they're making it up They go along that like there's no clear ending inside but that a lot of the writing is dictated by fan service Merchandise franchising future films and tv shows and stuff It's just devoid of a lot of the spark of like storytelling. Yep. It really is Yeah, it's yeah, it does have that made up as it goes kind of feeling like someone Is trying to come up with an impromptu dungeons and dragons campaign Season one was not leading to this Like season one Mandalore with stormtroopers with beskar armor who are maybe moth gideon clones like that's such a Damn shame because if we like this could have been a show about a cool bounty hunter going from bounty to bounty In each season or each couple episodes was about him tracking down or doing different bounties And we didn't have to have this massive connection to some tv show or some big Mandalorian thing It was just he's a guy He's going around and we get to see like the daily life of a bounty hunter going all across the galaxy working within different laws and customs And rule sets from planet to planet capturing different kinds of people whether they're Um ex imperials that the new republic needs whether it's like aristocrats Or whether it's who knows maybe he has to apprehend another Mandalorian or something that wouldn't that be interesting But we just don't we never that's all fuck it This is never going to be a bounty hunter show We saw it in episode one as soon as they introduced baby Yoda and we didn't know it yet That was the point when it was sealed But it wasn't going to be that kind of show that it was always going to tie directly into the jedi And then of course the fact that this is disney and they have an interest in franchising like imagine It was When he's like playing with baby Yoda right at the end because he puts his finger up to him It's like imagine telling us when we saw that for the first time He's gonna be with that baby every episode for three and a half seasons at least Jesus fucking christ. I I would have never that baby can't fucking talk I guess it's confirmed that he could like understand. That's another thing That's the thing that this one established that I guess he can sort of understand what people are saying Which seems to be like I bet if we went back and looked at a whole bunch of stuff retroactively that might cause a lot of issues But I guess that's what we're doing now Remember he has a grasp on morality as well Like you can't tell us that and also have him be fucking around with all kinds of crazy things that get gets mando in trouble Well, remember in episode in episode I think it was seven of the first season he almost forced choke to death caradun Because they were he because she was arm wrestling with mando and the baby started to force choke her when he saw that That's what I brought up with uh when mando said he didn't learn that from me when he broke up the fight I was like, yeah, he did literally he did you you taught him that you shouldn't fucking attack people But I guess they forgot that because there's no way that he's saying like he learned that from luke or some shit This is what I mean It's like annoying Like you could actually have used that could have been that one of them was strangling the other and then yoda stops it And it's like, ah Is because mando stopped him from doing it something man that part where you grogu got the mech God that went on for so long. It did It's hard to believe it was in the same episode. A lot of it goes on for ages That whole fucking chess fight whatever that was like why what a joke What does that serve like his past visit was dead now But it shows that the mandolarians are going to be in fighting, but baby yoda children At his court baby yoda knows we shouldn't be fighting. We should all be friends. That's what that thing was So useful. Maybe it'll come up in the next episode. Well, I mean remember moth gideon was obsessed with getting baby yoda He doesn't care about that. Why again? Oh god already he's to emphasize Emphasize how stupid that ambush was by the way, they knew the mandos would come here They're gonna lead them directly into that room and trap them and then they had no plan if you gassed them You capture them all and and this was an ambush. So you knew they would be coming exactly this should have been a gas Knocked them all out should have been. Yeah, they're that are like the the floor electrocutes or The floor gives way to some How come tiner septers didn't come up and gun them all down a prediction for what might be Because we never resolved the plot thread of the pilot finding the best guy with him having escaped What if like the next episode has like the new republic come in the mandaloreans are getting defeated But then a new republic fleet shows up and mandalorean helps them defeat not all because of that one pilot They'll show up and then it will be like rc, you know, maybe Maybe the republic ain't so bad after all. Yeah pretty much And then critical role and after it you'll have like a message where gideon is like we need help We would destroy bubble and then you hear the voice of thrall. Yeah, and he's like I am arriving I'm working on it You can see that in isoka launching like Throne throne will retain in isoka. Yeah, it's really lucky that morphe gideon decided to not kill mando I'm just so take him to the briefing room. I was like, why no, how fucking I think I might have actually said Kudos to the show if he'd taken the helmet off himself and executed him just with a pistol Yeah, that would mean that would mean gutsy. Yeah, but they're like Now pas vislo, that's pas vislo is as far as we can go Can you possibly wand with with mando? They just have a talk have a little evil speech and then he escapes so he can save the other ones or whatever It's it's the dr. Evil school of yeah, you know, it's just just fucking kill him on the spot Do it bad. There's prison cell. He's just got the full armor. He's just walking around a bit Yeah, they're not gonna take on sure then again, it could be that they take it off next episode and the uh, you know Pedro Pascal came in for filming one episode. I could believe he'd do that Yeah, he'd probably come in for the finale because I'll take the helmet off then. Yeah I gotta give him a little bit of face time Oh, they're totally gonna do the thing where his helmet gets damaged and he has like a lot Some of his face showing through the helmet I don't know. I think I'm gonna do that. I think they'll just take it off. I don't think they'll do that No, but to be honest with you, I would put money on not taking the helm off at all But they might do it because it's the last episode which they tend to in the last episode of the season, isn't it? All right, Mando season three episode seven great excellent wonderful Oh Bye Goodbye everyone Bye boys Grogu is too young to operate heavy machinery. What'd you bring me? What'd you bring me? I think you say it. What'd you bring me?
