Basil going all home Alone on Mae was pure Star Wars :D

The red bot in Andor had to charge at home and conserve power, too

R2 gets plugged to an powersource on dagobah, shortly before Yoda shows up.

"Is that the first live-action charge [of a droid]?" B3EMO has a charging bed in Andor.

I don’t really get what you mean by Mae flip flopping cause she’s not when Mae leaves qimir for osha last episode she’s very clearly confident that the her master won’t be able to get her that’s why she’s turning her self in so she can be with her sister but then she finds out her master is in fact there on the planet and is in close proximity she becomes absolutely terrified and it’s very clear that whatever plan she had goes out the window and she’s now just trying to get away to not get killed by any means possible because her master knows she betrayed him. He knows and will kill her for it we saw that last ep where he tries to kill her multiple times so her leaving with Sol is very obviously a “let me get the fuck out of here otherwise I’m fucking dead” she’s got a high self preservation need also I have a feeling that she doesn’t expect qimir to kill osha just her so that’s probably why she left her there on top of that

"I really hope that this Episode reveals things." LOL

The droid in Andor (his fostermom's red droid) was charging by the wall.

Vernestras call back to getting sick in hyper space to the books is great. The issue is she would get force visions almost every time she goes through hyper space.

For some reason, I have a feeling that the Darkside character is a reference to the Padawan killing prophecy from Legends, where a bunch of Jedi had a premonition that one of their padawans was going to fall to the Darkside and kill all of them, so they decided to kill their padawans first, but they screwed it up. One survived fell due to the betrayal and came back and killed them all.

Showing Jecki’s dead body is a very unexpected thing, wow. Oh and Yord too.

Vernestra saying it doesn’t make her sick, its unsettling, is semantics

I still contend that he knew it wasn't OSHA all along. Thank you for pointing out the droid murder. First peeps I've seen mention it.

Next episode's flashback is theathening to be the "this could have been an email" meme.

Cortosis been in Star Wars since 1998 when a novel "I, Jedi" was published ;) So it is not something Disney invented and named White robes symbolises seductive side of Dark Side - it is not always about anger and hatred but also there is passion and desire

“Star Wars doesn’t have safety railings” 😂 so true!!

Q will be Darth Plagueis. He can slow his aging with the dark side. Along with giving himself abs, and get swole. 🤓

I dunno if Mae was deciding to be good all of a sudden or whatever as much as she was really really scared of fighting a force wielding wookie without a weapon when turns out her sis is still alive.

How do you all watch it with split earphones?! I can't imagine y'all getting the full experience that way 😢

The very first chapter of the Plageus novel starts in a Cortosis mine

It's always those quiet ones that end up blowing up the most. Like, I always think, don't mess with the quiet people because when we blow up, we really blow up. I've probably only lost my cool a few times in life but when I have, I've insulted several people enough to make them cry. I felt horrible about it afterwards but us quiet ones do run out of buttons to push. We usually blow that steam with some private activity that doesn't need people, jogging, or punching bags or something. Helps us stay quiet, I think. Also, oh jeepers, bringing up Wheel Of Time Season one, as a book fan I'm having a hard time motivating myself to watch season 2 still. Their adaptation of season One gave me such a hard time, great acting mind you but the way they approached that, nightmares. Just to answer two points that would require you to either buy Legends Books or Comics to read. Answer is yes, there is totally one really prominent Skywalker in Legends that spends some time being trained as a Sith who has a romantic dalliance with their Sith Master. And also yeah, there are several species that are longer lived than Human beings in Legends and I believe a few in Canon. Canon even introduced some crazy Lovecraftian stuff with that Darth Maul comic they did not long ago. Basically, Star Wars just has weird stuff. Yeah, I think I'd have liked this episode more if like, we had two more episodes in this season to properly flesh out a satisfying conclusion. So, I totally agree with you guys on how the episode feels, which is weird because I kind of really liked the acting of the main cast too. I'm pretty sure the stuff about hyperspace nausea was done to offer her a broader acting range. But who knows, maybe they show her losing her lunch in a future episode. Anyways, great reaction!

I do like the idea that Qimir is the true antagonist and only survivor of the show. There are some interesting spoilery fan theories about him and his role.

There are no railings after OSHA no longer exists... duh

Resetting (aka murdering) Pip shouldn’t be the equivalent of making a buttcall.

Do you get the feeling that force users might not be all that popular in the galaxy at large save for the Jedi. Like the Jedi are seen as the only acceptable force users?

There were 10k Jedi at that period. He wouldn't know EVERY padawan out there. The presence being "familiar" might be because he saw him around the temple, but never paid atention to him.

3:26 someone forgot about Narkina 5 and Aldhani’s multiple railing kills 😛

I love it. The psychotic, murderous, gas-lighting, villain, is hot so he gets a pass.

Droids are tools and need their memories wiped before they develop personality. Uncle Owen knew best. This is why the Empire eventually banned assassin droids, because they tend to go rogue.

The Mule of Asimov’s Foundation series is now Qimir of Star Wars

Manny is the star of the show for me, alongside Jung-jae Lee. Both are extremely good at their roles, but Manny with his mannerism and the way he shifts from one vibe to another is totally outstanding.

Misdirect and confusion... first lesson, "The Nekkid Man" is effective at paralyzing your foes. Come to the dark side Osha, we have mixed bathing, and soup... (Way to mishandle someone's... lightsaber) A fallen/dark Jedi who has Sith-curious tendencies is a fair play... perhaps he aspires to try for a Ro2 position and is building his personal bench of student options. No, whips don't doodle like a Zorro sword tip scribble. Not unless Qimir and Vernestra were into hot wax/plasma tickle play. Cortosis is more rare than Beskar, and has fewer reliable applications. The shape of the helmet is what is replicating the sensory deprivation helmets of the younglings at the temple or Luke in episode 4 or Sabine. The material has nothing to do with it. Qimir is baldfaced lying to Sol about the mask "blocking the force", since he wasn't wearing it in the Apothecary and could not be read. Cortosis does NOT block The Force. That is a Red Herring. Classic misdirect. The greater sins of this episode are the editor's fault with a complete disregard of time, Space, distance and travel. It would have been better for them to open with Sol and Mae, As we saw them entering their ship in the last episode... Instead we have Qmir Mystically teleporting across the Galaxy to an unknown world, Having carried Osha to his ship taking off undetected, jumped to hyperspace landed on the unknown planet transported her across the bay at low tide into the cave lair and treated Osha' wound, and Osha waking up at High tide... Before the other ship even takes off. Bad, bad edit. To say nothing of the travel time from Coruscant to the outer rim for the Jedi CSI investigation team.... and they got notified at night on Coruscant, and didn't leave till day again on Coruscant. And, If there were still active umbramoths, Simply for the plot convenience of showing off the whip. Why were there still bodies left to investigate? Even If they are pure vegetarians that only attack because of the light, Other forest creatures should be hard at work rendering the corpses by now. I put more faith in Basil's ability to tell Sol about Mae's Infiltration than I do in his ability to clearly sense things in the Force... Although telling the mission commander first would have been a wiser tactical decision than trying to dry hump the leg of a known assassin... Tynnan logic be weird.

I love the fact the Jedi Master with the light whip, like Cortosis a pre-Disney canon item, get sea sick from going through hyperspace. Does this mean some people get hyperspace lag similar to jet lag?

Qimir is about 10 years older than Mae and Osha. So he could’ve been leaving the Order at 18 just as Osha entered the Order at 8. I feel like I understand more about Mae than Osha, who feels like she’s just along for the ride while introducing us to other characters. Mae’s whole thing has been to either get revenge by killing the 4 Jedi that she holds as responsible for what happened 16 years ago, or to get justice by informing the Jedi Council of the crimes that those 4 Jedi did 16 years ago so that they can be arrested. And in episode 2, titled Revenge / Justice, we hear that from her when goes after Torbin, after failing to killing him or illicit a response. Mae: “Turn yourself over to the Jedi Council and confess your crimes, or, take this vial to find the absolution you seek.” And again in episode, where tired of being pestered by Qimir and trying to figure out how to get a Jedi to fight her and how to kill them with a weapon, she says; Mae: “This isn’t my test. I don’t need to kill a Jedi. I will just go to Master Kelnacca and turn myself over to the Jedi Council.” Qimir: “But, they will arrest you.” Mae: “Not after what I have to tell them.” And then in episode 5 where she decides to go with Master Sol, presumably back to Coruscant, where she hopes to tell the Jedi Council about what she understands to be the truth about what happened 16 years prior, so that they can arrest Sol. And Sol tells her that he will to confess to her what really happened from his perspective. But worried that Sol will eventually see through guise before they even get the ship repaired because she doesn’t have a clue to maintenance, so she briefly considered killing him. And then after realizing that Sol might have saw through it once the ship came back on line. She decided to send a communication to the Jedi on Coruscant before Sol kills her, because still in her mind, the Jedi kill without provocation and Sol is a mess right then.

I agree that Sol hinting on what happened really got annoying in this episode. How many times have the show hinted about it now? 5-6 times? Anyway, that is too many times.

You're inverted. Change it! OCD! AAAHHHH

I think it's going to turn out that some Jedi have been encouraging parents to give up their children with mind tricks, but it didn't work on the witches who fought back and was massacred, and Vernestra covered it up.

The lighting/quality of this camera 🤌

Theyhad railings in an episode of the Bad Batch. The one where their ship was stolen by a kid and they helped him and his mining friends. But that didn't stop the boss from falling over the railing anyway.

The 'good guys' memory wipe droids all the time too though. I don't get all the claim 'this show wants to make the Jedi bad' arguments. That's bs. The Jedi have always been ABLE to be bad. Jedi can fall, they literally become bad guys all the time. If they couldn't the whole warning about the path to the dark side is meaningless and Anakin never would have become Vader. Obi-Wan literally lied to Luke about Anakin. Jedi actions literally created Grievous. Anakin, Dooku, and so many more. I don't know what movies and shows people are watching to think Jedi are always good.

ahhh this is 1x6 I should have read the title, but after watching 1x7..................... there is NO HOPE, not a NEW HOPE.

Is there any possibility that Qimir might one day wash his hair? Comb it? Brush it out of his face?

3:37 😮 how did you know this was the first video I was watching of your channel lol

Mae's motivations are super confusing to me.

There's like 5 maybe 10 mins of plot this ep. It’s the most frustrating part when combined with the 30 mins eps. I do like that quimir changed his tactics from “don’t reveal myself” to “I’ve shown everything”. Maybe if Mae returns he can use his naked powers to get her back on side

I really just tune in for the singing intro.

So weird to see Nerdy without a beard. Also these wood panels in the background(doors/cabins?) look super cool!

14:27 Not really, that material exists since Legends/Expanded Universe novels and stuff. Can't say they recanonized that here because there's already mentions of it in this new canon. But definitely first time it's shown and mentioned in a live action show.

I just listened to the 3 Thrawn books that came out a few years ago, the mineral that allows armor that can turn off lightsabers was mentioned in that. I wondered why we never saw the tech after Vader and Thrawn both knew about it. This show "initializing" that storyline (Separatists mining it for Clone Trooper and Roger-Roger robot armor)... 100 years before it happens is a nice Easter Egg.

Osha is too passive in this show, she doesn’t have an internal drive towards anything so she just gets pushed around by the plot. When you compare her to Cassian, he was a screw up who was floundering in his life but he was also determined to find his sister and take care of his foster mom. Whereas Osha wasn’t ever searching for Mae because she thought she was dead, she wasn’t striving to rejoin the Jedi order or even thinking of taking them down, she was just existing. And with the reveal that Mae was alive the one motivation she had was to capture and turn over Mae, not necessarily to find out what actually happened that night, which lessens the next episode’s big reveal.

You guys: "I don't get what Mae wants" Qimir, literally this episode: "I thought she wanted more than just revenge" Y'all keep blaming the show for "not showing things" when they literally spell it out for us. If you guys gave the show a little credit and payed a bit more attention to what is being said and shown....... Also, Osha is like this bc she is repressing her emotions. She was raised by the Jedi and that's what they teach their children

That wasn't coffee, that was Maneo's urine.

You guys would like A Night at the Roxbury (1998)

That was an interesting ep. But on an unrelated note, and sorry for being off topic, I'm so sad you didnt keep up with Interview with the Vampire, especially after that masterclass of a second season, you'd have loved it. :)

Algo goddess should've been Jecki's cold rotting corpse. That was harsh. Vinestra works too.

I would buy merch of the elephant birds

To say that the characters cannot move ahead because the mystery of the plot has to keep the reveal till the end is an excellent commentary. It's exactly what happens when writers don't really know how to write. It explains a lot.

B2EMO in Andor needed to be charged regularly.

6:15 .... and Andor Of course he was swimming nude, remember all those times Carrie reminded us that George declared theres no underwear in space 😆 Im appreciating your reactions. I'm liking this show more than you two are, but I can also absolutely see and understand the points you're making, theure valid points. You also still point out things you like and still keep your reaction constructive where you dont like it.

Blake Bortles!

R2D2 needed a charge in one of the sequel movies.

No one seems to realize that sol never asked about OSHA after finding out Mae is pretending to be her. The whole treck back to the ship sol never senses that ain't OSHA !! Then once he finds out, he doesn't ask her u got ur sister's clothes on , did u kill her? " He says he had 16 years think about what he'd say to u if he ever had the chance, so ur going to listen to me " to the twin he thought was dead for 16 years! But not the one he trained and built a relationship with!?😂 But if u over look these things then it works for u!! Turn off ur brain and don't question nothing!! But that only works if the show is good which this not !! IMO

kinda digging this version of a guayabera

This might have been my favorite episode of the series thus far. I know that we didn't get much plot progression or action, but Manny Jacinto's performance is just so captivating.

Movie recommendation : EXIT(2019),which is Korean disaster movie mixed with comedy.

Same. Honesty is hot as heck.

Is the actor that portrays Mog the same guy that portrays Dr. Gorst in Andor?

I vote we call him Darth Thirst Trap

Ok, space buns Clarus is adorable.

Beautiful Live Act Episode set into High Republic era. I hope that some day we get to see Hyperspace Disaster content in Live Act. Nihil species & more 😋 - Forever D+ Sub & so far quite a fan of The Acolyte. I dislike & like Star Wars Telly shows that have come out. - 🧘‍♂

Disney really needs to figure out series length and make episodes that are fulfilling to watch. 36 minute episodes with strange cutaways from important dialogue and long ass credits aren’t cutting it. Much of these episodes could be edited into four episodes which would leave the last four episodes to do more with.

B2EMO in Andor also charged.

You guys are sitting on the wrong side! It's weirding me out Luke charged R2 on Dagobah in Empire

This show unfortunately doesnt know how to build mystery. They keep talking and mentioning the same mystery to a point where it gets more annoying than mysterious. They dont build up the mystery or revealing slowly but just keep repeating it just from different characters.

Leslye said this is a villain's story, Dark side Osha with Qimir for the win!

The cookies are a lie

its pronounced Cla-Roos?!?!?

Obligatory algo comment

I agree with Clarus, this show lacks character development, which is why I also don't feel connected to any of the characters. I disagree with the persona of Qimir, I can't take him on seriously as a Sith, he is way less intimidating than Darth Sideous, Darth Vader, Darth Tarynas aka Count Dooku and even Darth Maul. Qimir is stoic and soft spoken and, in some ways, comedic, he is no true Sith in my book. Yes, I agree, every week, more questions than answers, less focus is on the story, each and every time.

The Bazzil character has been absolutely useless...there has been no point to having that character in the story at all. Pip has been irrelevant as well. Neither has been a "character," not even as much a B2-EMO. Clarus has noticed Qimir knowing things Qimir shouldn't be able to know. This show is like the couselor at a summer camp telling a ghost story, trying to stretch the story with as much fake mystery as possible. Mog reminds me of Dedra Meera's assistant. And Venestra is starting to remind me of Dedra Meera. I would like to imagine that the reason Osha is so bland and Mae is so psycho is because they're an incomplete whole that much be combined into a single person. But I don't think the writers are that clever, nor do I think they have enough time to resolve satisfactorily it that way. They've got us hope-watching.

Yep you guys are echoing many of the issues I have with this show, I like a lot about it but I'm lacking a reason to care as there doesn't seem to be a plot just the constant, I must tell you what happened 16 years ago but is stopped like 4-5 times so far and it's just annoying me at this point.

Qimir. Jacksonville kid makes galactic waves!

Wow, the plot holes and bad writing and strong with this one

I feel bad for your gf

Osha/Mae aren’t really doing anything for me. They barely have personalities individually much less enough to make them distinct. As children they seemed to have more distinct personalities. Osha seemed to not really give a fuck about people she ostensibly considered friends if Qimir can just dismiss her bringing them up by effectively being like “yeah, they actually sucked and didn’t like you anyway 🤷🏻‍♂️”. I don’t care about *any* of these characters (sorry, even Sol)

Clarus is spot on. Blah.

Fantastic analysis as always, however I must down the video for the Osha violation reference, such puns lead to the Dark Side. One thing about this ep that makes me happy is George Lucas was vindicated in his assertion that there is no underwear in space.

There are more of us... in your wife

Vernestra doesn't like hyperspace because it gives her visions. It's a reference to an important plot point in the books. On the other hand, her isolating herself on Coruscant is a very clear indication she has been VERY changed by the time she has lived in. At the end of phase 1 she had disobeyed the recall order to head off and become a way seaker (basically, a roving Jedi who follows the will of the force). Her becoming so political and isolating herself like this is weird, and begs explanation.

The best way i can describe this show is Cool bullet points for a whole story that they didn't know how to connect

If they just f@ckin' 'say the thing', the show would already be over. That's not how *mysteries* work.

I feel like it would have made a fantastic Irishman or longer length movie. 4-4 1/2 hours or so.

Well no kidding he's hawt, you said his name from The Good Place, have you seen it or anything else he's been in? I knew who Darth Smiley was as soon as I saw his arms.

Mae's only motivation is to not get merc'd by Smilo Ren. In terms of the dialogue, you should watch it with closed captions. The descriptive audio sounds like a romance novel. Also, Pip had to die or it would upload information about what happened when the Jedi strike team got massacred back on Pill Bug Planet. Finally, stop being frustrated about them not revealing what happened on Brendock, that shit is a red herring. I don't even think the Mae/Osha storyline is actually important in any way, its just the connective tissue of the story, not really the story itself. Green Bald Lady been whipping Smilo Ren with that light-whip(?) when he was a kid.

So far the entire plotline up to this point could have fit into a single episode. This is the Seinfield of Star Wars, as it's becoming a "show about nothing." If your show is based on a mystery, you either need to show a discovery of evidence or a plot reveal in each episode. Everything in the episode becomes irrelevant without at least one of those events.

12:58 do you know what else is HAWT?!? that tongue thing she's doing 😛🤣

Episode 6, I feel like I have given this show a chance to rope me in. For me, it’s a frustrating show. I’m truly lost.

This show is getting dumber and dumber and the jedi are the most useless characters in this series LOL

Pip was never alive. Osha just cared for the droid and acted like it was. Not all droids in Star Wars are sentient.

"I watched you murder my friends, and I won't be so easily corrupted!" "Yeah, well look at these abs, and check out my fat hog... Want to abandon all of your morals to be sad and evil with me?" "Good point. I will forgive you for snapping my childhood friends neck in front of me, because you're hot" This is the worst of CW writing. It's really, really bad. Performances by Sol and Qimir have been particularly excellent, and I feel bad for the actors because they're putting in so much more effort than the writers did.

This show kind of reminds me of the Obi-wan show…the stuff with Obi-wan and Leia was good, but the Reba and Inquisitor stuff was so bland and disappointing. The Osha/Mae pairing is supposed to be the centerpiece of the show but they are the least interesting part. No shade to the actor generally but they seem to have difficulty establishing each twin as an individual. If you look at Anna Torv in Fringe or Tatiana Maslany in Orphan Black, it’s important to develop each person’s physicality, vocal tone, etc and it feels like the actor for Osha/Mae didn’t really do that work.
