That said him spending a whole rear end fortnight with relby annie oakley widow tryna ride his blurrg in blue shrimptown without giving a name must have been awkward.

Oh, and speaking of the good callbacks in this episode, the line "She isn't going anywhere, she has the high ground" is the first time a Star Wars property has put me in a state of uncontrolled belly laughter from the bottom of my soul. That was goddamn beautiful.

Yeah, that's a good gag.

I also liked that Amy Sedaris' character is a Farscape callback.

Bust Rodd posted:

How much, if at all, do you believe your reaction to Baby Yoda is impacted by your memories of Yoda himself? Do you think you are responding solely to how impossibly cute and adorable it is, or are you also allowing your pleasant memories of Yoda to inform you're response? Would Baby Yoda be as cute if he were aesthetically the same but Yoda was a different alien?

Making the baby a mini Yoda was clearly a "Remember this?" choice but it was also important to the storytelling (and probably the plot in the upcoming episodes) because when he busted out some powerful Jedi powers the audience's reaction was to go "Well of course he can do that, he's a baby Yoda" and then conveniently forget about it, rather than getting completely distracted by it.

What I'm most annoyed about with their handling of baby Yoda is that it's been turned back into a macguffin to be passed back and forth between characters rather than using it as an actual character. Just steal a bunch of scenes from any of the dozens of other "Whoops, suddenly I'm a parent!" movies and TV shows from the 80s and we'd be golden. It didn't even eat any gross animals this episode. :(

I remember during the first season being comically unclear how additional seasons would work (there'll be a whole week of these?) and deciding that Day 7's opening narration would be:

"Right now. Aliens have invaded Los Angeles. My wife and daughter have been replaced by robot clones. And there's a giant spider with the face of Richard Nixon grinning at me from across the room. I'm federal agent Jack Bauer, and I've done too much speed this week."

It's definitely him but I'm wondering why he went back for the body. It's a guild bounty so he can't take it in himself, right? Is he going to try to sell her to a guildie and hope this one doesn't try and betray him?

It makes the ending of the last episode funny in retrospect. It had that shot of Mando's ship flying off into space with a sense of finality to the music but just after that he must have thought "oh poo poo wait" and turned around

Okay first of all, I loving called it and people in the thread were doubting me so ha!

Second, Mando knows she was a high level imperial assassin, he knows imperials were loving around with baby Yoda, he follows the thread when he can. Anything he could find on the body that leads him to more fragments of the empire and thus more info on the baby Yoda plan the better!

It was something like "made her name working for..." and doesn't preclude the fact that she may have thrown in with Remnant Warlords of late. Especially since the New Republic is taking such an interest in putting her employers in "lockdown."

I thought it was a nice touch that leaving banthas and a few raiders to distract while the other tuskan raiders sneak up is one of their core tactics and also worked on this young guy like it did with Luke but Mando knows about it

Really brings home what a doofus Luke was, he lived on Tatooine all his life and doesn’t know poo poo about Tuskan Raiders

Luke is not smart that is why Yoda had to sex him up to make baby yoda. Sorry should have spoilered that.

Oh wait, I know who that dude was at the end.

It is yet another Fett clone. We are already speculating on baby Yoda being a clone or them working to clone him, why wouldn't the Kamino cloners keep his DNA around to make more famous bountyhunters?

As for why he he showed up at the corpse near the end, he was either just following in Mandos wake trying to figure out where he had been and where he was going, or he is gathering DNA from exceptional killers for cloner reasons.
