Jedi Master looking for a force using metal detector is an equivalent to combing the desert in Space Balls.

Found anything yet? Man, we ain't found Sith!

An episode is like 22M, do something with it!
@@jcore0981and then Tuvok gets his shit found by an evil lesbian witch.
No combing the desert is a fun play on words and actually good writing. Force metal detector is just shit.
Torbin suffered severe PTSD after being mind-r*ped by Mae's mom. After 16 years of living with that trauma, Mae shows up and gets him to off himself because of the "guilt" he felt for being victimized. These writers have no idea what they're actually writing.
It's just Holywood psycho-weirdos writing what they know.

Good point and he was technically still a child, only following the 'adults'/ mentors around him. Clearly he meant no harm and was preyed upon.
Justice for Torbin
Ok so they just proved that "the power of many" is fucking worthless because one Jedi overpowered the entire coven. Fucking clown world.
Maybe they meant that the power of 1, the power of 2 and the power of maaaannnnyyy are all the same level of power?

I love the incredulity that every single commentator (even in channels where they defended the show) had with episode 3 because it looked so absurd, and it turns out the situation was just as absurd as it looked.
Just remember in-universe someone committed suicide because the events of this episode.
I mean if I was in this episode I would kms as well 😂 This is an absolute clown show.
In his defence this episode was pretty bad.
@kaykutcher2103 😂 It wasn't the events of the plot, it was the fact they were written which drove him to do it.
He was just still super pissy that he had to spend 7 weeks on that planet even thought they could have easily flown home every evening and come back the next day.
"Give me something for the cringe and let me die!"
Actress: She is a powerful leader. She is a good person. Yass yass!
The character: the first thing she does is to antagonize the jedi by mind r*****ing the young lad.
She does this BEFORE there's any tension being cranked up in the scene.
So much focus on self inserting themselves into this universe, it's appalling really.
OMG your totally right. If she wanted them to leave why didn't she order them to leave FIRST...then if they refuse I suppose she could resort to her evil torture. Just torturing him to begin with just tells me she was always an evil monster.
She's such a powerful leader, she dies after one episode through her own fault.
Not r*pe... Look up the definition of words before you use them.
I'm aghast and a little fascinated at how poorly this show conveys its ideas. They clearly intend for this to all be a tragic misunderstanding built on unfair suspicions and misreading of the situation, but then witches respond to tense situations by turning into smoke demons and dissolving children, only to be shocked when this is read as hostile. It's like I'm facing armed police, I pull out a flamethrower and snarl "it's on!", and then I'm shot and as I die I say, "but I was going to descalate the situation! This is a tragic misunderstanding!"
But have you considered that witches turning into an evil black fog and possessing a furry character might've been their only joy in life?
😂
@@Arko777777 They appear to have Furry-possessed themselves to death en masse, so the joy was, alas, short-lived. Joyful for me, though.
I could not agree more with your “poorly this show conveys its ideas”.
You are making The Room look a little more cohesive.
It's even worse than that: you would be _actively shooting_ with the flamethrower, an innocent bystander would be engulfed in flames...and then once shot, you'd declare "No, that was a secret type of fire that was actually helpful and completely harmless! It just _happens_ to look indistinguishable from napalm!"
*This series was hyped as a mystery.*
The “mystery” is that the bad gals were bad all along, the good guys were good all along, the culprits we saw commit the crime were in fact the culprits, and no new information has helped our decision.
*What kind of mystery is this?!*
The mystery who let them write Star Wars
@@hassathunter2464 Perfect.
The true mystery is where all the 180 million dollars went.
The things in this show that weren't predictable were the things where we said, "there's no way they'd be that dumb and predictable", but then they were.
They sure fooled us!
This isn't a mystery, this is mystery box storytelling, except they forgot the most important part of the JuJu Abram's grift (who writes stories like he's selling a fly-by-night Ponzi scheme), and that is *never reveal what's actually in the box.* Lesley Squareheadland (accomplice of Harvey Weinstein) showed us what she put in the box, then showed us the exact same thing she put in the box, like she thinks of her target audience as infants who haven't grasped the concept of object permanence and are genuinely surprised by peek-a-boo.
Lightsabers can't kill Darth Maul, Sabine and Reva but it can kill a witch whose body is half-transformed into smoke.
Okay, LucasFilm.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but here it goes, to be fair to the Acolyte🤢🤮. They have actually treated lightsabers with the props they deserve. It shouldn't have to have the baggage of other Star Wars shows' dumb decision to make lightsabers be useless. When you get stabbed by them, you die.
Agree with this take. The acolyte is hot garbage that never should’ve been made, but at the very least people die when they get stabbed by light saber.
@@spicysausage8805well, this is ironically a time I have to push back.
The acolyte HAD to kill with the lightsabers in these instances (the witch lady in 7 and all the Jedi in episode 5).
If Smilo’s lightsaber had left anyone alive after that level of damage (Jeddick I think her name was?), Leslie would have managed to further nerf Lightsabers.
And if the “Smoke Demon?” Had survived a lightsaber, you would now have another entity (besides force ghosts) immune to lightsabers…
Can force ghosts be killed by lightsabers? I don’t know if I want that answer.
Leslie ironically got put between a rock and a hard place with her own actions. She wanted “tragedy”, but at the same time I don’t think she realized how many storylines she let wilt when they were barely seedlings.
Lightsabers ironically had so much power they killed her story just as hard as she did.
@@nhagan001 It still doesn't help overall that the ONE time a character has a plausible reason to survive a lightsaber wound, she died. Star Wars canon did everything backward.

@@TheNoonish “Ignore our lack of any other children! It is purely a coincidence, as is the inexplicable life on this world being traceable to this ritual deathpit.”
Wait, so Torbin very briefly considered a rash course of action after being tortured with a Dark Side mind technique, got an eye punched out by a possessed bigfoot, and then a deathcult Jonestown'd themselves trying to kill everyone while the Frenzied Flame ran around planting demo charges in an abandoned castle. _That's_ what he was so guilty about?!
Maybe in episode 8 they'll reveal that he also kept on stealing Kelnacca's lunch out of the break room fridge?
My funny head cannon is that the witches literally messed up so bad he had Trauma for the rest of his life.
He's feeling so guilty about having signed the contract to be part of this show.
@@packman7631 Never mess with a Wookie's yogurt.
Not to mention that he rushed in to rescue CHILDREN from what they had good reason to perceive was a DARK SIDE CULT. The only sorrow he should have come away with is their failure to save both girls.
Remember that it takes about 20 minutes to get to Coruscant from the outer rim in Disney Star Wars. There was no reason for them to be "roughing it" and desperately homesick when they could commute to the planet every day with no trouble.
Not to mention missing the giant ass castle that towers over the landscape, and is within walking distance. That they somehow missed for 7 weeks.
20 minute still seems long for the way they mess with time here...
Or why they wouldn't have proper rations or camp out instead of being in their ship and moving around in it. This planet is clearly not densely forested so it should be easy to check a place fly to the next and check again. Also with all their technology they can't scan the planet for ineteresting spots and need to take random moss samples, walk around with a metal detector, etc. instead of looking for a MASSIVE FORCE PHENOMENON with the force. Also the basic sample collecting and looking could be done by a proper team of scientists instead of wasting the time of Jedi or attach a Jedi to a proper team of scientists. It being a force event doesn't mean a planet coming back to life is only of interest to the jedi. A planet being livable is also of intersst to neighbouring systems for potential habitation and resourcess.
That’s 20 minutes of moss time
The idea of a 20 minute commute from coruscant to the outer rim just destroys the scope and size of the universe.
I get it now. Torbin was so guilty because he told osha the blood test was painless but he obviously lied. That “ow” echoing in his head for nearly 2 decades.
I think it's just because he's a white guy so he has crippling white guilt. He was trying to deal with it by remaining is his bubble of privilege.
So the Jedi did nothing wrong and were 100% in the right the whole time.
Yup, but of course they were EVIL from people who are also evil every step they take *cough* Headland
This is John Walker all over again. Labeling non-evil and justified actions as evil and villainous.
@@dire213 The Jedi Walker
Torbin was an idiot who rushed to get the twins on the bike without orders when he already had all the proof he needed, Sol was an idiot for trying to hold the bridge instead of just the girls and Indara was an idiot for not scanning a planet earlier and noticing a giant fortress in the mountains.
@@AlexBarbu The council didn't authorise their actions, so they should have received some punishment, but in terms of handling the conflict once it started- yes, they were justified. Although Sol chose to drop May, so that's really dangerous incompetence.
All that crap about ‘the power of many’ and Trinity just singlehandedly kills like 20 of them. And all it took was disabling their bluetooth connection

Maybe the power of many, refers to Manny Jacinto the actor who plays Smilo Ren. 😂
Says a lot about the people writing this, to them it would be death to lose BT or Wifi access.
So the show just lied to us. Glass Onion-style.
Obviously this episode is trying to show us that Mae was innocent the whole time. But instead of showing us the same event from different points of view, they omit details, change lines, and the timing of events to convince you.
In episode 7 they conveniently cut to other action with Sol so that they can cut out the shot in episode 3 where Mae tells Osha "I'll kill you."
The smashing of the lantern happens at different times; In episode 3 Osha runs to the window and screams "Mama, Help me" before the lantern smashes (establishing she is afraid for he life before the lantern even breaks). In episode 7, the lantern smashes Osha says "What are you doing?" (Implying she isn't panicked and instead just doesn't understand what's going on.) before she *silently* runs to the window.
In episode 7 Mae screams for Mama to help with the fire. In episode 3 she is silent.
The timing of Sol's arrival at the bridge is different. He doesn't yell to both Osha and Mae in episode 3, but he does in 7. He also clearly runs in and only attempts to hold up Mae's half of the bridge in episode 3. He doesn't attempt both like he does in 7. For clarification, I'm not saying they edit around him trying to save both first, It's literally a different take.
I don't know if you can get more explicit than removing Mae's threat to kill her sister and Osha screaming for help. They lied.
If this was a clever writer, I could see them saying the diffrences are due to sol's retelling in episode 7, and Mae's retelling in episode 3. But I highly doubt that's what they are going for. Especially with the whole Darth sexy island stuff
Honestly confused, how is the Glass Onion-style lying and not a character’s POV or interpretation of past events?
@@kingawesome5219 Because no one "told" either episode and there are multiple POV's within each episode. (Ex; if Sol is telling the story; Sol can't know Mae accidentally started the fire by dropping the lantern. And if Mae is telling the story; She can't know what Sol did at the Jedi camp)
Sorry it’s been a while since I saw Glass Onion, what did it do to “lie” like this?
@@StevenRichter Oh okay, I was thinking if that was the case but wasn’t sure

„and so, Mae, now as we come to the end I hope now it is clear that everything is your fault.“
And it’s funny that the show tried to paint Mae as the victim albeit she’s the arsonist who started the whole thing.
Well she didn't see the Jedi's POV outside the fortress and how the witches died...btw, why did she say "I will kill you" when she wasn't going to?
@@user-xx6vy9ri8pI think that's how they communicate in that culture, they do a very aggressive action and then tell you whatever they want to tell, just like her mom did.
Exactly.. and this facet isn't brought up enough.
Oh, by the way another comment said that there's an interview that Headland did where she clarified what the chief witch's Imhotep Smoke Monster thing was intended to do: it was to "transform [Mae and her] into the Force." You remember, that really dumb phrase that Jekka used to describe what happened to that bug when it was _sliced in half?_
That technique didn't just look evil: it _was_ evil. Sol stopped a deranged cultist from killing her own daughter as part of a murder-suicide.
That just makes it even more ridiculous that she would gaslight sol by saying she was going to let him have them as she died. 😂

"Mass suicide"
Ooookay then
My thoughts exactly. "They're not a cult", and then the witches kill themselves because a child wanted to leave their "community".
It was fucking worthless against a single properly trained jedi. I think the jedi might have the force figured out while this coven was fumbling around. Why did she even turn into mist when it didn't do shit 😂
I'd rather get training from the jedi even as incompetent they are in this show they were still beter than the witches which says a lot.
@@LukasJampen ...and then the very same properly trained Jedi dies to a thrown knife.

The morality of this episode is so funny. The Jedi are clearly in the right from start to finish, based on the events depicted. Hollywood truly has no idea what good and evil is anymore. They see good as evil, completely. The inversion is hilarious.
In fairness, stopping a magical girl in the middle of transformation _is_ on the evil overlord list.

@@FriendlyDarkwraith Ah, but you see space travel would cause space pollution and they need to keep their space carbon footprint at a minimum, you have to understand.
Its been a while since I heard it, but I think it was a TH-camr named PlagueOfGripes who said something like "Bad writers writing moral greys is just them whiplashing from pitch black to stark white at random" You see this alot with half-assed redemptions like in He-Man:Revelations when Evilyn goes from killing heaven (yes really) and trying to annihilate all of existence to giving that up and walking happily into the sunset.
This show has somehow outdone that by having them do things that are pitch black and then going "wow arent the Jedi messed up" when they react to the information that was given. The writers have shown a lack of understanding common sense and basic morality
Based on the position of moral relativity, slavery, genocide, racism, sexism, rape, domestic violence, and more is just a matter of perspective. Moral greyness is a precursor to atrocities.
I did not expect this show to portray the most justified killing of an unarmed black woman in television
The whole "we didn't know the planet was inhabited" is way more stupid now...
They actively knew it was inhabited when they hacked the door and barged in. Just imagine someone seeing you walk into your house, picking your lock, and then saying "oh, I didn't know anyone was home."
Just ring the bell...
Well, the thing is they did actually think it was uninhabited up until about ten minutes before then, which is seriously bizarre, they should have known it was inhabited
Sol broke in before. He saw everyone living there. He then went back to camp, then they went back to the big fortress, then they break in and say "we didn't think anyone was living here." But they knew before they broke in.
They should have rung the bell, not break into someone's home and claim "we didn't know you were here."
@@slaapt Sure, but the statement “we thought this planet was uninhabited” was actually literally true - the Jedi came to the planet believing it was uninhabited, and only just now discovered the witches
It’s a stupid af thing for Trinity to say in that moment, but in episode 3 it seemed to just be an obvious and impossible-to-believe lie - now it’s actually literally true, absurdly
I get that they thought the planet was uninhabited when they landed, but they use the line after breaking into someone's house. If they really thought the planet was uninhabited, they would be there in the daytime. No one goes exploring uninhabited planets with abandoned buildings in the middle of the night. Especially not if the building is locked with an electrical lock.
There is no urgency and thus absolutely no reason not to be asleep. Come back during the day. Moreso if any evidence of habitation is found. You do not break in in the middle of the night.
What I'm trying to say is that merely by being there at the time they are, the witches can disprove the statement.
Torbin was assaulted by someone with more power, made to feel guilty for it, and self deleted due to the guilt. That’s awful enough, then add in the fact that Leslye Headland was Harvey Weinstein’s former assistant, and it makes it so much worse. But keep telling the fans they’re the problem Disney.
The whole point of this episode was to give us a different perspective and make us see the Jedi as the bad guys, but it utterly failed.
And I found it hilarious that Mae is still responsible for trying to burn her sister alive and destroying the fortress. If the witches didn’t die from Master Indara disconnecting them, they certainly died from Mae destroying the fortress.
I can't believe they didn't have the Jedi do 1 action that we could say "Yeah that's definitely wrong & they'd be harshly punished for that". The show seems to think it's Sol stabbing the evil smoke demon disintegrating the child....I disagree. If I was a Jedi Master reading this mission report & it described everything that happened my only comments would be:
Torbin: Maybe you need to get counciling for when you're away from home, you seemed abit too uneasy.
Sol: You possibly care abit too much about innocent children. I have no further advice, great work killing that smoke demon by the way.
Trinity: You seem really dismissive of your Padewan when he was tortured. Don't let that happen again or if it does treat it the same way as if they started force choking you.
Kel-Naka: I think we need to get you a Magneto helmet but otherwise seems like you didn't do anything wrong buddy. I hope you don't feel any guilt for this.
All in all team I think you had a pretty successful mission. Shame the other child died but from what Sol sensed it seems like she might have already been corrupted by the dark side if she tried to burn her sister to death. Wiping out that evil lesbian communist space witch cult seems like a net positive for the galaxy, you all get gold stars. Obviously in the future I'd recommend scanning the planet for life before spending 7 weeks studying moss but I'm not gonna tell you how to do your job, if you like spending that long away from the Jedi temple then you guys do you.
@@josephkerrigan733 its truly amazing how out of touch hollywood is with average people when they create stuff like this and try to tell you the evil witches are supposed to be sympathetic and the jedi are evil. It makes me wonder if this is supposed to be an allegory of cops shooting a minority where the jedis are the cops. Except in this scenario much like in real life when you get all of the facts more times than not the shooting was justified. But then again that would be giving headland too much credit for talent...
I stumbled across a Nerdrotic tweet where he replayed the scene of the disconnection with the audio commentary playing over it, which flat-out refers to the witches as "lifeless bodies" when they drop after Indara disconnects them from Kelnaka.

@josephkerrigan733 I would love a scene of Mauler's "Jedi Enforcer" character doing the ops debrief after this mission.
It kind of makes you question the morality of the writers when their attempts to create a 'they are good guys actually' thing with a group makes them look as bad or even more evil than we already thought off of first impressions
So to make the witches the "good guys" they portrayed them
Yelling at children
Planning to sacrifice people
turning into dark ghost gas after
BRAINWASHING a padawan AND JEDI MASTER
and more
yet to make the one Padawan look bad, he just asked legit questions like why is a team of highly trained Jedi masters on a planet doing fieldwork with shitty equipment? Also, the Padawon actually did a great job in combat. He defended against arrows from several archers at once AND held his own against a brainwashed Wookie Jedi in close-quarters combat. Yea, I feel for the Padawon surrounded by morons.
Well he is a moron himself because he entrusted to obvious manipulation and rushed to get the twins instead of calling to Coruscant...
So what you are saying is...they tried to make the Jedi evil, but they missed.
And then they tried to make the Witches good, but they missed.
They tried to set up a mystery, but it wasn't what they were going for, so I guess they missed.

This line is so monumentally stupid, as if having noble intentions is worse than not having them.
@@john_squatson Noble intentions are evil intentions to evil people.
The most absolute peak irony of that entire line is that the witches got killed off and their home absolutely demolished all because of their pride, arrogance, and absolute refusal to just be entirely transparent and entirely non-aggressive with the Jedi who have been entirely neutral, considerate, and as "we're perfectly fine with leaving you guys be like you want" as humanly possible.
No explanation of how Mae survived a thousand foot drop? She simply survived? That’s it!?
"Somehow Mae returned..."
She used the power of her fallopian tubes channeled through her bead curtain hairstyle.
So if Lesbian Witch Mother didn’t decide to mind grape Torbin and also decided not to reenact the Mummy, none of this would have happened. She’s the bad guy of this story.
She's also TOXIC AF to her partner, and abusive to their children.
It's another example of how bizarrely the show communicates its ideas . The point, presumably, is supposed to be that the two factions view one another as a threat and are mutually suspicious, and from that bad choices are made on both sides, resulting in tragedy. Yet they have the most ostensibly diplomatic and reasonable of the witches immediately decide to target the most junior of the Jedi -- not one of the three knights but the adolescent apprentice -- which goes far beyond suspicion and into flat-out villainy.
She F'd around, and soon found out.
She's too busy yelling "Yaassss" and looking for people to clap for her instead.

Planets in the Disney Star Wars era are like the anti-Tardis: They appear to be similar in size to other like astronomical bodies, but are WAY smaller on the "inside" once they land.
And always have only 1 biome
There concept of planets in Star Wars is like from Star Wars video games, where "planet" is just a different way of saying "map/level."
@@S1nwarWhat about Alderaan?
Also "fun" fact, according to Leslie Headlamp the spell witchlady was using was supposed to transformboth herself and Mae into the force. Just to make this clear Sol saved Mae from effectively being killed. And he is supposed be in the wrong for this. HOW DO YOU WRITE LIKE THIS?
Wait, _what?_ So when it looked like she was turning into a horrible monster to disintegrate a terrified child, it's because that's exactly what she was doing? Not trying to perform the most evil looking teleport or something?
EDIT: Wow. I googled 'Leslye Headland' and 'transform into the force,' and it turns out...yes. That's exactly what she was doing. She was trying to commit a murder-suicide with her daughter and...wait, what the hell was her plan for Osha and the rest of the coven? Just kind of hope that spontaneously seeing their leader and her daughter disintegrate would calm everyone down?
Well, according to Jekki, it's always an honour to witness...
Uh oh. Hey Leslie remember when you had a character basically, "it's an honor to witness life returning to the Force," after moth got cut in half? That means that Chief Lesbo Mom was trying to KILL Mae.
Turns out the psychotic woman wielding a big ass knife, and running towards the child while screaming, "I'm going to stab this child!" Was in fact going to stab that child.
Sol did nothing wrong. ( Except that he's still absolutely braindead for holding up two halves of a collapsing bridge that definitely weighs more than two little girls.)
Transform to teleport, correct?
So the communist doesn't get their way and commits to murder/suicide when authority comes for them. It's Jonestown all over again...
You know, I've cynically stated elsewhere that I think Queen Yass's last words of "I was going to let you have Occupational Health and Safety Administration, you idiot" was her attempting to manipulate Honor For Famiry into feeling guilty for killing her, but in light of that information, I think that might actually be the case. She's so evil that even her last breath was used for malicious deceit.
Honor For Famiry had ever right to plunge his lightsaber into her communist lesbian space witch chest.
"I was going to let Osha go."
"Why didn't you lead with that?"
It's just now hitting me in full: Disney doesn't get the Force because they're applying the wrong philosophy to it. They're insisting that dark and light are yin and yang instead of good and evil.
Yet I'm also...impressed? That this show is portraying yin as straight-up evil and/or bipolar. I dunno. XD
They seem to be running with the "Good is a point of view Anakin" line from Palpatine. Not thinking that the person who said that line was CLEARLY EVIL.
The thing is, they're insisting it's yin and yang without any knowledge of what yin and yang are. If you asked the writers I'd give them a 50/50 chance of knowing which one's white and which one's black.
The writers are clearly in the camp who think that "balance in the Force" means "equal parts light side and dark side." That's not at all how it works. "Balance" means "only light side." The dark side is a cancer that corrupts everything and everyone. The Jedi and their philosophy should not tolerate any of it. The Council should never have told them to leave them be. The Jedi on the planet should have been reacting to the clear use of the dark side. Everything that occurred should have occurred as they were trying to stop the spread of the dark side and save the kids if possible. The Star Wars universe has absolute morality. Light side is inherently good. Dark side is inherently bad. Palpatine's line on a "point of view" is just him saying "well, it's good for me, because I'm a selfish bastard, so I'm gonna call it good." That's not goodness. It doesn't fit the objective, absolute morality of the rest of the universe. It's him lying to Anakin to entice him.
Yeah fringy is going green in the face repeating that the Light side is the force in balance, while the Dark side is corruption, but I see a lot of people including Leslie in interviews thinking we need equal parts good and evil to balance things like it's a political spectrum 😂
A hilarious detail is that horn lady and Tommen continue to stare at each other while Yasss Yasss turns into a literal demon monster. The game engine froze them so the playable character could have his 1v1.
Wait a minute, Sol was telling this story to Mae who had a first hand account on everything that happened, but it looks like he confused Mae for Osha when he stabbed The Mummy Witch, but then he knew exactly which twin to save when he was holding up the bridge?
Why are you confused lmao
The show has been consistently flip-floping over when someone is supposed to recognize someone else or not.
Don't you forget he _totally_ had a connection with that specific girl, too ;)
I thought the stupid thing from the blood test was the explanation why they cannot be easily distinguished or whatever. I guess, every time Sol sees a twin he rolls for recognition.

The Schlurpolite, Episode 7:
Since we only had $180 million, unfortunately, we had to do another flashback episode to save on the budget. This time round, we learn that Jedi Knight Ho Lee Fuk, Jedi Master Dee Dee Jettster (ancestor of Dexter Jettster), Jedi Knight Porkins (also an ancestor of a character) and Padawan Isgonnadie (who wants to go home) were tasked by Chancellor Alan Titchmarsh with doing some landscaping on the Planet Schlurpo 1. Turns out, this is where Good Schlurpo and Bad Schlurpo lived. (Isgonnadie wants to go home)
The coven of space witches, led by Black Anne Boleyn, are not keen on the Jedi's. After some shenanigans, they find out that the twins were created by furious space scissoring, leading to an astronomically high count of Schlurpos. (Isgonnadie wants to go home) The Jedi's decide to take Good Schlurpo into custody. Black Anne Boleyn turns into Imhotep from 'The Mummy' (1999) and tries to eat the Jedi, who attack her. Turns out, this was just a traditional thing to do for her people, and the Jedi's foolishly misinterpreted her cultural greeting. Bad Schlurpo still starts a fire, but we now learn that the rest of the coven died because their Internet Provider cut their wifi.
Sadly, there was no interpretive dance number this week :(

The vaguely competent writer's version: Because the Jedi mistrust witches and are suspicious of potential dark side use, Padawan Torbin rashly escalates the situation by being overzealous in trying to "rescue" the children; because the witches mistrust Jedi just as much, Mother whatshername protects her children with more force than she might otherwise have done; the Jedi have to prevent Torbin's death and in the process a witch or two get killed; it escalates. It's tragedy.
The show's version: Mother whatshername decides to immediately confirm all the Jedi's worst fears by mind-raping someone (specifically targeting the young apprentice); Because he's desperate to go home like a bored six-year-old (and *not* because of the obvious evil he's just been exposed to) Padawan Torbin decides to confirm all the witches' worst fears by kidnapping children. It's farcical.
They made the "misunderstood" witch a blatant villain when it would have been simple to make her genuinely sympathetic, and somehow managed to make Torbin paradoxically both far worse and far more sympathetic than he should have been to make this work.
torbin gets mind graped , attacked by archers and a wookie almost kills him , but his guilty, women logic DDDfffff
He also deleted himself after that. What a way to make the witches the true “victims” of the story.

Because his darkside impulse got over 30 people killed unnecessarily.
@@Margumentative If he wanted to take the blame off the witches, it wouldn't go on him but on Sol, Torbin couldn't open the main gate, its Sol who showed him where to climb to get to the other side!
He's been trying for years to supress the sheer cringe of the whole situation, but it didn't work. He had to take the easy way out, when it presented itself.
@Mangaka-ml6xo interestingly enough we had two jedi struggling with guilt.
It is a fact that while in another timeline where he doesn't impulsively run away from camp,the exact same outcome occurs but we don't know that timeline and in the timeline this show is in, of torbin doesn't run off, the rest of the events don't occur.
@@Margumentativeah yes because getting mind fucked and nobody taking the time to help him sort this out mentally or not stopping him with their force powers is clearly his fault. Also Sol went along with him and he is just a padawan it's Sols responsibility, he just defended himself when horn lady took an attack stance and black lady started turning herself and a child into smoke.
Clearly this is all the padawans fault and not on the full jedi training slash travelling with him. The witches also mindfucked a fellow jedi to attack him, he loses his eye and the "power of many" lost to a single jedi. This show is a bad joke.

You think the reason why the wookie decided to hide out in the forest is because he was slightly brain-damaged and traumatized by the forceful overriding of his will, hence the repeated engravings of the witch's mark on the walls? Could be that's all he saw/experienced when mind controlled, so he's trying to get that out of his mind by writing it down, but it's not working hence him going off the deep end.
If Wookie lore is still canon, we can also tack on that losing control, even if it was due to dark side bullshit, would probably leave him considering himself a 'Madclaw'. A shameful mantle that, in Wookie society, would see you exiled as a savage, bloodthristy beast.
@@nobody2996 True, but since Jedi are taken as young children specifically to avoid loyalty and traditions of where they come from, I don't know if that would matter to a Wookie Jedi. It really hasn't been explored in even pre-Disney lore that I came across at least...
To be fair, that's most things like Kotor then the books, but I don't believe there are any books that dealt with this though most were smart enough to not draw attention to it and raise the question and making it clear you're not going to answer it.
@@SallinKari Wookie traditions are weird since a lot of them seem to be a born instinct rather than something taught, like their life debts.
@@nobody2996 Didn't know that but pretty interesting... Also this brings up a further point where pretty much the most evil thing you can do in Kotor is mind-control a Wookie into murdering someone they had a life debt to, and while I'm pretty sure the Wookie Jedi doesn't have a life debt, it still is quite bad... yet they want it to be 'gray.'
@@SallinKari Zalbar didn't have a life debt to Mission, he had a life debt to you, which is why he had to go along with your orders even if it was butchering his own family.
In Kotor 2, it's even worse since your dark side wookie companion in that game basically went crazy because he developed a life debt to the girl he was hunting due to her saving his life. Viewing it as being enslaved to the humans he despised and constantly hunts her to find a way to end his life debt.
$180 million dollars for 8 episodes with one episode basically being a clip show episode in the first season. They must have thrown most of the budget into the bottomless pit as a sacrifice.
My main question at the end of this is, if this episode is basically Sol telling May what happened 16 years ago, what information did May miss out on. Because she was there at the start of the fight and saw how her mother died. OSHA needed to be in this episode, not May.
My guess is though, the writers are so inept, they are going to make it that because we now know what happened, then OSHA now does as well.

Greetings, we witnessed a masterful subversion of expectations ! It turns out that the Jedi are truly paragons of virtue who made the right choice in each situation, when we were led to believe there was going to be some moral ambiguity.

This being the show (and episode) to have Batwoman music is perfect. The similarities between them is astounding.
Torbin drank poison over this?
To be fair, it makes the audience want to do the same. He was just ahead of the curve 4 episodes early.
He wanted out of the show, even force blocking any other interaction with the scrip, it was a true 4th wall breaking twilight zone situation
Torbin still wants to go home.
also let's do this thing where it take like 30 of us to mind control one person and then if that control is broken we all die... the power of many is indeed shit as it lost to the power of one
Maybe he killed himself bc he missed Coruscant so much
Torbin is gon a need counciling after this one. He was mentally manipulated, and after he was mentally affected he made a rush decision that escalated the situation. Then someone he knows is also manipulated and controlled to try and kill him. If I were Torbin I would legit be wondering if any of my actions that day where my own. Just thinking to myself, "they got in my head, I know they did. How do I know I wasn't giving them exactly what they wanted when I went there? They can have such affect that they can make you kill, so what choices where even my own?" Torbin should be completely vindicated. If anything, after this event he would have a deep contempt for any force related system not related to the jedi.

It's not even that the Jedi should have seen that massive mountain base on the planet even from space, the mountain base was an abandoned mining facility. The Jedi should have been aware of a mining facility on the planet from any kind of historical records and what the planet was used for before they ever showed up to do their Force recon mission. There is no way they shouldn't have been aware of the mine and the facility's existence.
Sol is walking that way because it's a controlled way to walk in some martial arts. He's maintaining balance while moving forward so he can move in essentially any direction at any time, without telegraphing any particular direction.
