Speaker 2: If you have, man introduce at the starting line. Rosie
Speaker 2: Knight for the speed recap of season one of Yellowjackets
Speaker 2: on the Bleakered Showtime Network.
Speaker 3: Okay, forgive me if the episodes are incorrect. I had
Speaker 3: this from memory. Episode one, in the Wilds of the Woods,
Speaker 3: we see a young girl running through the forest screaming
Speaker 3: she's chased down and killed. We then see a group
Speaker 3: of hooded figures feasting on meat. Could it be human?
Speaker 4: Dunt?
Speaker 3: Dun't dunn? And then in New Jersey nineteen ninety six,
Speaker 3: a girls high school soccer team head off to Nationals,
Speaker 3: but they're plane tragically crashes. In the present, we meet
Speaker 3: some of the survivors, Shawna, an unsatisfied housewife, Nat a
Speaker 3: recovering at it, Misty are very cool, Misty Avery creepy caregiver,
Speaker 3: and Tie, an aspiring politician. When they begin to receiving
Speaker 3: strange blackmail notes about their time in the woods, they
Speaker 3: must band together episode two, as the girls try to
Speaker 3: survive the wreckage. In nineteen ninety six, Misty and unpopped,
Speaker 3: a girl in her high school, suddenly rises to the
Speaker 3: top of the wilderness hierarchy thanks her uncanny survivalist skills.
Speaker 3: Seems good, but quickly takes a dark turn when she
Speaker 3: purposefully smashes the black box wa wa wa because she
Speaker 3: wants to keep being popular, condemning them to what we
Speaker 3: now known as nineteen months in the wild. In the present,
Speaker 3: Shawna rear ends a very hunky and an enigmatic man
Speaker 3: named Adam, while Nat confronts Misty, suspecting she is behind
Speaker 3: the blackmail. When Misty claims her innocence, the pair become
Speaker 3: a unexpected buddy couple and go off to uncover the truth.
Speaker 3: In episode three, that quest turns tragic when Misty and
Speaker 3: Nat try to locate Travis, one of the other survivors
Speaker 3: of their time on the wilderness, but they soon Discovery's
Speaker 3: already dead sets now on a spiral, and Taysa's political
Speaker 3: campaign has suddenly hit with smears about her time in
Speaker 3: the forest, and to make things worse, her son starts
Speaker 3: to see weird visions. In the nineties, the girls find
Speaker 3: a cabin Hopeful, but it's already inhabited by a dead body.
Speaker 2: Oh no, terrible, terrible, terrible.
Speaker 3: Episode four. Relationships are beginning to bloom. Natt and Travis
Speaker 3: cement their romance, Shawna takes Harvey under her fring. Tysa
Speaker 3: and Van find space to continue their reship lesbian affair
Speaker 3: love that for them, and Lottie and the religious law
Speaker 3: release start to make a strange spiritual connection that's gonna
Speaker 3: end badly for everyone in the future. Shawna and Adam
Speaker 3: begin an affair speaking of things that are gonna end
Speaker 3: badly for everyone, and Tysa gets off in a massive
Speaker 3: political donation, but to get it, she would have to
Speaker 3: spill the beans on what happens in the woods. She
Speaker 3: rightfully says, fuck you, and it doesn't happen. Episode five.
Speaker 3: Nature takes its course in the forest and all the
Speaker 3: girls periods sync up. There is one exception, though, Sawna,
Speaker 3: who's real to be pregnant with her best her best
Speaker 3: friend Jackie's boyfriend Jeff. It's his baby and now Shawna's
Speaker 3: married him. That's fucked up. In the modern day, Tysa
Speaker 3: begins to see visions of wolves, and Shawanna and Jeff
Speaker 3: struggle with their marriage, and we learn Misty has been
Speaker 3: spying on Shawna. Misty's crimin away, see you crazy lady,
Speaker 3: Well she's getting crazy because guess that's what. She kidnaps
Speaker 3: a journalist who was asking questions. It's okay, yeah, you know,
Speaker 3: but then she ties her up in her bedroom and
Speaker 3: poisons her, and it turns out she's not a journalist
Speaker 3: at all. She's actually a PI hired by Taysa to
Speaker 3: check that her friends wouldn't spill.
Speaker 2: I'd tell you, miss These ways seemingly random and crazy,
Speaker 2: but they all work out again.
Speaker 3: Look Out Look. Misty's the secret hero at the Yellow
Speaker 3: Jackets need but in nineteen ninety six, she's poisoning assistant
Speaker 3: coach Ben to keep him weak and close, so they
Speaker 3: get it and mark against her there episode six. In
Speaker 3: nineteen ninety six, Lotty's connection to the supernatural continues to
Speaker 3: grow after a seance that leads her to believe she's possessed.
Speaker 3: We also learned she's had pre cognitive visions before that
Speaker 3: that came true. Laura le baptizes Laurie, and in the future,
Speaker 3: Misty continues to keep Jessica hostage. Nat tries to find
Speaker 3: out what happens to Travis. Tye realizes her son isn't
Speaker 3: having visions. Good news, Bad news is it's her Ty
Speaker 3: has been climbing into the tree in a very creepy fashion.
Speaker 3: Episode seven, the crew tries to caltch their blackmailer. It
Speaker 3: doesn't work, but they do cover him with glitter, which
Speaker 3: will become important soon. In nineteen ninety six, Tile to
Speaker 3: group of girls to try and get potential freedom from
Speaker 3: the forest, but they get attacked by wolves and one
Speaker 3: of the wolves apparently kills Van. Lotty sort of foresaw
Speaker 3: the violence with a strange vision, so people start to
Speaker 3: believe she's supernaturally inclined and start to follow her, and
Speaker 3: we go to episode eight. Good news Vans Arelife, Bad news.
Speaker 3: She wakes up already on a funeral plier. She's not happy.
Speaker 2: About her Heckla pulse people. She's literally like fire, are
Speaker 2: you kidding me?
Speaker 3: So Van Survival and Jackie's reveal Shana is pregnant. She
Speaker 3: knows that it's Jeff as the father. It inspires Laura
Speaker 3: Lee to fix up an old plane try and fly out.
Speaker 3: Probably should have done that sooner, just gonna say like,
Speaker 3: but okay, sadly looks like it's all going well, explodes
Speaker 3: over the lake, ripiter Laura Lee, but to Lotty it's
Speaker 3: a sign the forest doesn't want them to leave. Episode No.
Speaker 2: I might have just been a very very old plane,
Speaker 2: but you know what I will say in the episode
Speaker 2: is very ominous.
Speaker 3: The Teddy bears at some fire, but yeah, it's bad times.
Speaker 3: Episode nine is Doom's Coming, Baby is Doom's Coming. To
Speaker 3: celebrate the homecoming, they never got to have, the girls
Speaker 3: throw a wild wilderness party, but thanks to a mix
Speaker 3: up with Misty's magic mushrooms, they all get extremely high
Speaker 3: an non consensually it's an accident and end up almost
Speaker 3: raping and killing Travis. Speaking of nonconsensual, they're stop by
Speaker 3: Nat and it was Shauna who was gonna slit Travis's
Speaker 3: throat in the modern day, she gets to finish that job,
Speaker 3: not to Travis, but to her poor boo, Adam, who
Speaker 3: she guts after becoming suspicious that he maybe the blackmailer.
Speaker 3: Very unrealistic and bad choice there, Shauna, but sure so
Speaker 3: she kills her. Shauna then soon immediately realizes either this
Speaker 3: episode or next then it was actually Jeff, her husband,
Speaker 3: who is the blackmailer. Dunt dunt dum. Episode ten, She
Speaker 3: decides to set up Adam, gets her friends to chop
Speaker 3: up the body. Misty of course knows how to do
Speaker 3: this because that's kind of thing she's into, and she
Speaker 3: covers for Jeff, and the pair of them kind of
Speaker 3: find their romance reignited. It's very fucked up. Those two
Speaker 3: have got some issues. She then goes on to the
Speaker 3: school union with the girls. They have a very fun
Speaker 3: kind of time there. Shauna threatens people that she's going
Speaker 3: to kill them if she if they tell about Jeff blackmail.
Speaker 3: But things are not going well. Season ends badly for everyone.
Speaker 3: Jackie doesn't survive her night outside in the snow after
Speaker 3: the girls forced her to sleep out there. She dies
Speaker 3: in the IRP to Jackie in the future. The news
Speaker 3: reports on the fact that Adam is missing, and Shawna, Jeff,
Speaker 3: and their daughter Kelly realize like, oh fuck, Ty wins
Speaker 3: her election. Good news, sid news, bad news. Looks like
Speaker 3: she did some kind of weird blood sacrifice with her
Speaker 3: dog to get it, which her wife finds in the apartment.
Speaker 3: So she's now in the probably Lotti's cult follower part.
Speaker 3: Misty kills Jessica with a poison cigarette. We'll just say
Speaker 3: she did tell Jessica to stop smoking. If Jessica hadn't
Speaker 3: smoked a cigarette, she wouldn't have died. And nat Is
Speaker 3: kidnapped moments before killing herself and moments before she can
Speaker 3: receive a phone call that reveals that Loti is alive
Speaker 3: and she wiped Travis's bank count before he died.
Speaker 2: Season two of Yellow Jackets begins streaming March twenty sixth
Speaker 2: on once again the beleaguered Showtime Network. We will be
Speaker 2: covering that show every Wednesday, I believe here on the
Speaker 2: Division program. Up next, The Mandalorian, We're stepping out of
Speaker 2: the airlock and into the Mandalorian training grounds for season three,
Speaker 2: episode four of The Mandalorian on Disney Plus the episode
Speaker 2: titled Chapter twenty The Foundling, written by John Favreau and
Speaker 2: Dave Filoni and directed by the legend himself. Carl Weathers, you,
Speaker 2: son of a bitch. Let's start with the recap. So
Speaker 2: we're outside of the Armor's cave. The Mandalorian covert is
Speaker 2: putting itself through some rigorous training, and let's just stop
Speaker 2: for a moment and give a real big pad on
Speaker 2: the back to whoever the Mandalorian recruiter is, because let
Speaker 2: me tell you, folks, the Mandalarian Covert is growing in
Speaker 2: an exponential place.
Speaker 3: There is like at least ten times as many as
Speaker 3: that was last time, and they've wrought Amah.
Speaker 2: They were like a D four school. Now they're like
Speaker 2: a D one. I don't know what they're offering these recruits.
Speaker 2: I don't know where the best scar is coming from.
Speaker 2: Something's happening, Something is happening, and you can really feel
Speaker 2: the momentum, folks, and they're out there just fighting. Bokitan
Speaker 2: is kind of like strolling around taking it all in.
Speaker 2: The Mandalorians are like hitting each other with fists, with staves,
Speaker 2: with knives, They're shooting flamethrowers at each other. They're shooting
Speaker 2: blaster bolts just like over the open lake and throwing
Speaker 2: grenades into the lake. Things live in there, folks, What
Speaker 2: are we doing?
Speaker 3: I would say, yeah, I don't think they've learned that lesson.
Speaker 3: I think some one of the lessons that we've kind
Speaker 3: of been talking about a lot about the Mandalorians is
Speaker 3: this is a culture that is so focused on war
Speaker 3: and weaponry as like their main kind of mission. And
Speaker 3: I feel like the first thing they do when they
Speaker 3: get these new recruits is to once again start training
Speaker 3: them for battle. Seems like it's abaud.
Speaker 2: I'm just throwing thermal detonators into the lake. Grogu sits
Speaker 2: nearby taking it all in. Originally I thought he was
Speaker 2: like Force arranging rocks.
Speaker 3: YEA, Then it's definitely you're meant to think it's that
Speaker 3: classic Force joke of like you the rocks, and I
Speaker 3: think Grogu maybe thinks that's what he's doing.
Speaker 2: But then there's a really cute ru But then it
Speaker 2: turns out that they are all crabs, and then I
Speaker 2: think Grogu certainly probably wants to.
Speaker 3: Eat He thinks he's gonna eat it, but Din comes
Speaker 3: over and he's like, no, no, no, Din.
Speaker 2: Comes over and is like, Grogu, you're up. Okay, everybody's
Speaker 2: getting put through their paces. It's your turn to get
Speaker 2: put through your paces. With some light sparring with one
Speaker 2: of the other foundlings. The referee of this particular about
Speaker 2: is like, this kid is too small.
Speaker 3: He's a baby.
Speaker 2: This kid is ten inches tall. Are we sure about this?
Speaker 2: But Denn's like, don't worry about it. I've seen him
Speaker 2: in real action, like do real, real stuff. He can
Speaker 2: handle it. Let the baby cook. The challenger, who I'm
Speaker 2: assuming is the boy from episode one.
Speaker 3: I was thinking that, but then like, we don't know,
Speaker 3: so like a thing here about like later on about
Speaker 3: who his father is. So it's uncle. It's a not
Speaker 3: a child. That is what we will say a young child.
Speaker 2: Mandalorian gets challenged and as the challenged gets to pick
Speaker 2: a weaponry and it's like, well, I don't think that
Speaker 2: kid can even like hold a gun, so I'm gonna
Speaker 2: go guns. And then he asks Dinn why doesn't he
Speaker 2: wear a helmet? He is too young to speak the
Speaker 2: Creed dances and therefore is too young to wear helmet.
Speaker 2: Then he's too young to fight. I think it's a
Speaker 2: good point, but again let's the baby.
Speaker 3: The baby cook look also as well, as we will
Speaker 3: point out many times in this episode, we're starting to
Speaker 3: lead that the rules about the Mandalorian's very blurry. They're
Speaker 3: not one hundred percenture what's going on with the creed
Speaker 3: or I think the helmet or anything else.
Speaker 2: It's really the one rule is helmet, keep it on
Speaker 2: around other people. Everything else is kind of Calvin Ball
Speaker 2: like stuff, even around a lot. So the training guns
Speaker 2: come out and it's like these little like paintball, paint dust,
Speaker 2: little wrists.
Speaker 3: Shot the dots that we've seen didn't use.
Speaker 2: Bocatan very lovingly straps it onto Grogu's wrist and it's
Speaker 2: a very very almost matronly motherly fashion.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 2: Each contestant has three shots. Uh. And now here's a
Speaker 2: great example of exactly what you're saying. The way the
Speaker 2: referee explained the rules, it seemed to me it was
Speaker 2: gonna be like, okay, round one, go and each would
Speaker 2: get one shot shot at each other. But that's not
Speaker 2: how it went. So they went round one and the
Speaker 2: challenger shoots Grogu right in the chest with a little paintball. Okay,
Speaker 2: round two, challenger shoots Grogu in the chest with little paintball.
Speaker 3: It's kind of more like a jewel or something.
Speaker 2: And then dinner is like gives them a little peppic,
Speaker 2: you know, it's like timeout, coach, time out camera kid.
Speaker 2: And then it's like, listen, you can do it. I
Speaker 2: know what you can do. I've seen you force choke people.
Speaker 3: Favorite shot. He's like, I've seen it, I know what
Speaker 3: you can do. Show him what you can do. And
Speaker 3: I'm thinking, like, this guy is gonna eat this baby's
Speaker 3: gonna force choke a child.
Speaker 2: But I really thought was that, like what are you
Speaker 2: talking about?
Speaker 3: But no, it's Grogu's other impressive trick that the puppeteers
Speaker 3: are very happy to show off.
Speaker 2: He's leveling up that flip. So Googu does a forward
Speaker 2: flip into a backflip, lands exactly where he took off,
Speaker 2: and then triple shots the kid right in the chest. Now, again,
Speaker 2: this seems like it would be not against the rules,
Speaker 2: Like I thought it was one shot per round but okay.
Speaker 3: Also, as when I was like trying to work it out,
Speaker 3: I was kind of like, so would they be okay
Speaker 3: with him flipping? Because like the kid one day have
Speaker 3: a jet pack or they can just see that it's
Speaker 3: valuable to have a force user. It did feel unfair, though.
Speaker 2: I gotta say the mainlins are kind of rednecks. They're
Speaker 2: just they don't know what's going They're just out here,
Speaker 2: like throwing blaster shots over the lake at nothing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, also still buy that same light. Can we please
Speaker 3: recall what happened last time? They were just like a
Speaker 3: giant alligate to like Lake Placid style alligator came out
Speaker 3: and absolutely demolished them, and like they didn't think, just
Speaker 3: like being the cave trailing tails. They're gonna find out
Speaker 3: it was a bad choice.
Speaker 2: So three points to the winner. Our winner. Grogu bo
Speaker 2: is like, did you teach him that? To Din and
Speaker 2: Dinn says not me. Of course. It was Luke Skywalker.
Speaker 2: Ever heard of that guy?
Speaker 3: I think it rings a bell.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Shortly thereafter, the challenger who lost and it's probably
Speaker 2: so humiliated that he lost to a ten inch tall
Speaker 2: fifty three year old baby gets swallowed by a bird
Speaker 2: by like a pterodactyl looking bird that just swoops down
Speaker 2: scoops the kid up.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like a fagging terodactyl. But it's terrifying and again,
Speaker 3: seems like you probably shouldn't be chilling in this one spot,
Speaker 3: especially when we find out this is not the first.
Speaker 2: Time we get to that. I think we did we
Speaker 2: choose the right planet. I don't know. Uh. The man
Speaker 2: learns are like, okay, we got to go after this bird.
Speaker 2: Good choice. But when when they start running out of
Speaker 2: gas positive pasvisl runs out of gas chasing the bird,
Speaker 2: what's happening?
Speaker 3: He's just chilling like and he like and he's like
Speaker 3: just chilling on the cliff. He's like, oh, I run
Speaker 3: out of gas. I like, did you not check before
Speaker 3: you went? Like? Do you have more gas? And if so,
Speaker 3: why did you not fill up beforehand?
Speaker 2: Luckily, Boca ten is a full on spaceship.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, She's like, absolutely not.
Speaker 2: And she follows the bird all the way back to
Speaker 2: its layer aka its nest uh. And she comes back
Speaker 2: and she's like, hey, I know where the nest is uh.
Speaker 2: And a search party is arranged, but they're not going
Speaker 2: to leave until the morning apparently the next day, so
Speaker 2: it's gonna be a full like let's be we'll give it.
Speaker 2: We'll say it's like ten to twelve hours. Yeah, until
Speaker 2: they set out and there are certain rules because this
Speaker 2: bird is very canny, and we understand, as as you said, Rosie,
Speaker 2: that this is like at least the second.
Speaker 3: Time that's like it is, Oh, you know, the bird
Speaker 3: never brings them back. And I'm like, my god, what
Speaker 3: do you mean.
Speaker 2: Like what happened to take precautions?
Speaker 3: How many Mandalorians are there that you're just willing to
Speaker 3: sacrifice one? I know you're in a good job of recruiting,
Speaker 3: but please.
Speaker 2: Maybe that's what happened to the boy from the first episode.
Speaker 3: Reza. Every Mandalorian and by this bird or killed by
Speaker 3: a giant alligatza.
Speaker 2: So uh so they start they huddle together because again
Speaker 2: they do have some experience with this bird, seeing as
Speaker 2: how it has been eating various members of their tribe
Speaker 2: for x amount of weeks. So they're like, okay, well,
Speaker 2: we can't use jetpacks around it because it'll hear it
Speaker 2: and it it'll eat the kid. Okay, so no jetpacks.
Speaker 2: So that means how are we gonna get up to
Speaker 2: the nest? Aha? The armor is like, I'm gonna get
Speaker 2: you the extra extra extra long grapnels out a store.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go back into the storage closet and get
Speaker 2: the really long.
Speaker 3: Grap pad and is also like, by the way, I
Speaker 3: just used to casually climb mountains, like yeah, so I
Speaker 3: was training, so don't worry about it, which also begs
Speaker 3: the question there wasn't one other Mandalorian who has trained
Speaker 3: that way. You could have climbed the mountain to get
Speaker 3: back whichever kid got fed before problems in the I
Speaker 3: mean an organization that.
Speaker 2: Was a very Star Wars line from bow you know,
Speaker 2: very like oh, I used to I used to bomb
Speaker 2: wamp brats like that kind.
Speaker 3: It's true like in the In some of the great
Speaker 3: like expanded books, especially like The Princess Leah but by
Speaker 3: Claudia Gray, which I love, you learn about the kind
Speaker 3: of challenges that Royalty have to often go through and
Speaker 3: these kind of trials they do. But yeah, I thought
Speaker 3: it was really funny. She was just like, I can
Speaker 3: climb up there no or stone and armors like great,
Speaker 3: I got a grapple a nook for you. Those very well,
Speaker 3: really well, we used them last time for the alligator.
Speaker 2: So they all fly off in bow ship and that
Speaker 2: leaves Grogu in the armor to just kind of chill.
Speaker 2: And so the armor is like Grogu you're too young
Speaker 2: to go on this on this mission. Unfortunately your ten
Speaker 2: inch just till you are fifty three years old. But
Speaker 2: a baby still you.
Speaker 3: Can do a flip.
Speaker 2: But like that's not that apressive, that good, So come
Speaker 2: back with me into the armory and uh, let's just
Speaker 2: have a chat.
Speaker 3: I want to say, I feel like for Grogor, I
Speaker 3: know he loves tin, but I feel like there he is,
Speaker 3: look at him exactly. I just want to say, yeah,
Speaker 3: I feel like he didn't wanna like he he didn't
Speaker 3: choose the Jedi way, and because he was probably sick
Speaker 3: of all the training. He just likes to like sleep
Speaker 3: and eat. And I feel like she's like, come you now,
Speaker 3: She's like, you gotta learn all these Mandalorian ways, and
Speaker 3: he's probably like, oh, for fuck's sake, Like I'm not
Speaker 3: sure if I'm really into that. Like Jedi training is intense,
Speaker 3: but Mandalorian training is like stupid and intense. But it's
Speaker 3: actually okay because he doesn't really have to get trained.
Speaker 3: He just has to get a cool gift from the armor.
Speaker 2: It's kind of like Skyrim where you can join multiple guilds. Yeah, yes,
Speaker 2: it's kind of like what Grogu is doing like he's
Speaker 2: in the Jedi guild already, he has the force so
Speaker 2: and has gotten training from the very very best fans man.
Speaker 2: So now let's get some Mandalorian training.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 2: So they go into the Forge, and then the Armor
Speaker 2: is like, this is the forge. This is the heart
Speaker 2: of Mandalorian culture. I think Grogu's go but by the way,
Speaker 2: like Armor, we got it. Grog's been here a little while.
Speaker 3: Unless Grog's already wearing like a sick chain mouth. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that's kind of one on one understands he knows what's
Speaker 3: going on.
Speaker 2: That's definitely like Mando pre one on one, like he knows,
Speaker 2: he knows that much of it. Also, there's only one room.
Speaker 2: There's only one structure here at base camp. It's literally
Speaker 2: just the forge. Like you don't have to explain the
Speaker 2: one place that there is.
Speaker 3: Uh.
Speaker 2: And then so the Grogu looks on as the Armor
Speaker 2: is hammering out some best car plate, and the Armor
Speaker 2: is talking about like how uh you know best car
Speaker 2: comes from donations, Like all the all the members that
Speaker 2: tribe go out and they find different little bits of
Speaker 2: best car and they bring it back.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 2: And then the sound of the pounding the pounding. The
Speaker 2: hammering seems to really have Grogu upset. And I get
Speaker 2: to tell you, this is the most emotionally like, vulnerable
Speaker 2: and raw puppet of all time.
Speaker 3: Because he was putting the Muppets out of business armor.
Speaker 2: Fucking stop hammering.
Speaker 3: You are upsetting the babies. You are stop giving him
Speaker 3: PTSD or you are awakening. The PTSD already has from orders.
Speaker 2: To look at the baby arbor which wing and you
Speaker 2: know that we see this look of of real sadness
Speaker 2: and grief and then pain crossing over Grogu's face, and
Speaker 2: then all of a sudden, we are back at the
Speaker 2: night of Order sixty six. In Grogu's memories, there's a
Speaker 2: bunch of Jedi that are trying to hold off the
Speaker 2: Clone Troopers. They are getting gunned down Clone Troopers. That
Speaker 2: the hammering that Grogu is hearing is the Clone Troopers
Speaker 2: hammering through this door and they get it open. Uh
Speaker 2: And and the Jedi has managed to spirit Grogu into
Speaker 2: an elevator really quickly, and they send it down and
Speaker 2: when it stops, there's a Jedi there waiting for him.
Speaker 2: And it's our friend Keller and Beck playing by the
Speaker 2: one and only Yaman best akajar Jar binks and the
Speaker 2: crowd goes and the crowd Kellerin beck the sabered hand
Speaker 2: who carries two lightsabers, and boy can he use them
Speaker 2: quite well because he makes very short work of him.
Speaker 3: Yes, he and I think this is this is really
Speaker 3: important on two levels. One because it's not like a
Speaker 3: character people know. It might feel a little bit anti climactic,
Speaker 3: but this is an answer to the big question that
Speaker 3: we've been asking saves. I love that they gave this
Speaker 3: to Ahmed. He's been through so much because it's.
Speaker 2: Very open about the trials and tribulations of being involved
Speaker 2: in Star Wars and what it did to him.
Speaker 3: And I've loved to see him kind of being brought
Speaker 3: back into the Lukes film fold first with some really
Speaker 3: fun like quiz shows he was doing with kid stuff,
Speaker 3: and now to see him be the one who saved
Speaker 3: the child, arguably the most important role and biggest answering
Speaker 3: this question, and to get to be a bad ass Jedi,
Speaker 3: it's pretty great. It was really cool.
Speaker 2: So who Kellerin gets Grogu on a speeder and they
Speaker 2: fly off through the skyline of Corroussant troopers in pursuit Uh,
Speaker 2: and it's a wonderful dogfight. The chase enters a train
Speaker 2: tunnel with Kellern playing chicken with the train. He wins UH,
Speaker 2: and then he tells Grogu, who is obviously quite panicked
Speaker 2: by all of this, he don't worry. We're going to
Speaker 2: meet up with some friends of mine and then crash
Speaker 2: land on a platform floating above the city, and the
Speaker 2: people that Kellerin is there to meet are some soldiers
Speaker 2: from Naboo, So Naboo is involved. There's a lot of
Speaker 2: Naboo in this series. With the ship and with.
Speaker 3: Prequels, very prequels.
Speaker 2: It feels like we're going to wherever we're heading is
Speaker 2: going to involve Naboo in some former fashion. And certainly
Speaker 2: it certainly appears that Grogu's history is going to intersect
Speaker 2: with Naboo somehow. But as soon as they land there
Speaker 2: to get Grogu on this ship with the Newboo guardsmen,
Speaker 2: the Clone Troopers find them. Now there's a big firefight
Speaker 2: and Beck and Grogu get on the Nubuian ship and
Speaker 2: they head for fiber Space. Grogu comes out of his
Speaker 2: reverie after you know, his memory basically ends as they're
Speaker 2: in that hyperspace on only comes out of it the
Speaker 2: armor completely oblivious to this. Here, hey, Grogu, all the
Speaker 2: ship that you've heard before, I'm just like still talking
Speaker 2: about did you know, hey, Grogu, did you know that
Speaker 2: man learns were best car armor?
Speaker 3: Do you know what bestcar is? Right?
Speaker 2: And did you know that we make it here in
Speaker 2: the forge, by the way is the heart of And
Speaker 2: then she tells him about the tithing, the act of donating,
Speaker 2: and then she makes him this little cute little chest
Speaker 2: plate and then I think it needs a strap, but
Speaker 2: apparently I'm not an armor.
Speaker 3: Is just like the chest. I feel like it's a
Speaker 3: it's a very weighted moment. We see Grogu's armor growing.
Speaker 3: But also I'm like, you know, at some point and
Speaker 3: somebody's gonna get shot and that's gonna be what saves him.
Speaker 3: But it was very like here it is yeah, very
Speaker 3: check off SMA.
Speaker 2: So yeah, she just places it like a plate on
Speaker 2: his chest.
Speaker 3: Isn't magnetic? That's what we need to find out. Maybe
Speaker 3: it connect again.
Speaker 2: We don't we don't do this, We're not armors. We
Speaker 2: don't do this for a living.
Speaker 3: And he's a little cute fairy jacket. But yeah, it
Speaker 3: doesn't look secute to me.
Speaker 2: So we go over to the search party. That includes
Speaker 2: a pause which you can find out why he's so
Speaker 2: interested in going on this a little like minally interesting. Yeah,
Speaker 2: he's a very stoic guy. And Din they arrive at
Speaker 2: the Bird's Layer and then they're like, hey, let's wait
Speaker 2: it out. Let's not go right now. Let's in fact
Speaker 2: wait another night. So now it's gonna be twenty four
Speaker 2: hours before they go and challenge the spurd. Just keep
Speaker 2: track of that time. So the first thing they do
Speaker 2: is like it's time to camp and the you know,
Speaker 2: around the campfire, the food's coming out, and Bo, who
Speaker 2: is again very disconnected from her Mandalorian identity. Her culture
Speaker 2: is like strolls over dinner's like what do we how
Speaker 2: does it work with eating? Like what do we do?
Speaker 2: And dinner's like you just everybody just kind of goes
Speaker 2: off on their own to eat, you know, so nobody can.
Speaker 3: Okay, so we're adding another layerhead to this. Mandalorian lores
Speaker 3: like so you can take your helmet off near other
Speaker 3: people as long as they are not looking at you
Speaker 3: and you are not looking at them, but we have
Speaker 3: also seen people eat and drink.
Speaker 2: Like that's my personal favorite. Yeah, you just want to
Speaker 2: see someone.
Speaker 3: Like under the helmet.
Speaker 2: Uh and Bo's about to head off and then Puss
Speaker 2: like no, no, no, you're the you're the you're the
Speaker 2: war party leader. You get to eat by the fire.
Speaker 2: That's like your honor. So that's pretty cool, now, you know,
Speaker 2: Christ and Saul super producers. Christ and Saul had a
Speaker 2: good question which I think we're all thinking about because
Speaker 2: soon question because soon after this pause is like, hey, ps,
Speaker 2: I know it's been now a day since we've been
Speaker 2: on this a hunt to get this kid back. Ps.
Speaker 2: It's Mike's kid, So that's why I'm here. Right. So
Speaker 2: if let's say that is his biological trial with another Mandalorian,
Speaker 2: perhaps you need armor. What happens? Does it stay on?
Speaker 2: Does it you take the helmet off? Right? Is it
Speaker 2: just bumper cars?
Speaker 3: What is the what is the situation here? Is that
Speaker 3: like flaps and like.
Speaker 2: We need to know, Yeah, John, David, John, I know
Speaker 2: you've thought. Don't sit there and tell me you haven't
Speaker 2: thought about it?
Speaker 3: Was it cool?
Speaker 2: We need to understand we all know what happens. So
Speaker 2: then it's the next morning again twenty four hours since
Speaker 2: this child has been in the clutches of the bird.
Speaker 2: But like, hey, if we try to fight the bird,
Speaker 2: it'll kill the boy, because that's what's happened before. Oh
Speaker 2: my gosh. He says that it just happened for what
Speaker 2: it has taken others.
Speaker 3: Which so now from one to to potentially.
Speaker 2: Like I guess like single digits. Hey, Mandalorians, like, can
Speaker 2: we set up some auto cannons or something like sleep
Speaker 2: in the cave, high frequency something that like it just
Speaker 2: chases away the bird. Why are we just letting people
Speaker 2: get snatched up by birds? Anyway? The bottom line is stealth.
Speaker 2: Gotta be stealthy. You have to sneak up on the birds.
Speaker 2: So they use their risk cables. They scale the cliffs.
Speaker 2: It is very hard work. But again Bow has done this,
Speaker 2: she's been doing She's just she's chilling. They get and
Speaker 2: they had the really long grapnel cables. Shouts in the armor,
Speaker 2: thank you very much. Ps. She's in the forge, which
Speaker 2: is the heart of man. Learn culture. She made those
Speaker 2: graps very important culture.
Speaker 3: That grappling.
Speaker 2: So they get up to you know, I don't know
Speaker 2: what I was expecting, but it is exactly what it
Speaker 2: should have been, which is a fucking huge n a
Speaker 2: giant a.
Speaker 3: It's very like crystal and.
Speaker 2: Dinn goes to heat mode and it's like, hey, I
Speaker 2: see a heat source about fifty yards and I should.
Speaker 3: Have been using that before you got to the nest.
Speaker 2: Just kind of work out what you meant, because like,
Speaker 2: that's my son, and I fucking care now and I'm
Speaker 2: gonna run over and I'm gonna get.
Speaker 3: He's like, I've got gas in my jet back now, baby.
Speaker 2: But guess what, it's just like three massive, yeah, giant babies.
Speaker 3: May it be bud dragons, very really cute.
Speaker 2: And just as the bird babies are like emerging from
Speaker 2: the straw, uh, the mommy returns and immediately vomits the
Speaker 2: kid up to which the only question that needs to
Speaker 2: be asked at this point is has this child been
Speaker 2: in this bird.
Speaker 3: Way four hours?
Speaker 2: That least?
Speaker 3: And wow?
Speaker 2: The best car is good? If that is the case,
Speaker 2: best is strong?
Speaker 3: Would you ever well it is the center of Mandalorian culture, yes, right,
Speaker 3: but like, would you ever forgive your dad if you
Speaker 3: found out that he was just like chilling at a campfire,
Speaker 3: like eating dinner being digested?
Speaker 2: I know, we could go right now to when they
Speaker 2: might be asleep, but let's go tomorrow morning, and then
Speaker 2: after we go tomorrow morning, let's then camp out for
Speaker 2: another twelve hours, then go at dawn the next morning.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean you're gonna you're talking about at least
Speaker 3: forty eight hours in that in that bud's belly.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but if you're gonna get mrked by a bird,
Speaker 2: then are you really the stuff of Mandalorian?
Speaker 3: You know, like you've.
Speaker 2: Gotta prove it.
Speaker 3: I feel you, I feel you. It's like he's gonna
Speaker 3: have to live with that. Shameful. He did also get
Speaker 3: beat by the baby, Like.
Speaker 2: What are twenty four hours for? This child got beat
Speaker 2: by a baby flat out and the baby cheated. You
Speaker 2: just gotta say it's the baby, and then everyone back
Speaker 2: to baby back the baby was like, yeah, fuck it,
Speaker 2: three shots in one round. Yeah, that's fine. And then Dad.
Speaker 3: Shaded him because he said to him, you don't speak
Speaker 3: if you don't know. Yeah, he did something wrong, like
Speaker 3: then eaten.
Speaker 2: By a bird. Delightful twenty four hours and a bird's belly.
Speaker 2: Dad just not really not really a rush to save them.
Speaker 2: And then Dad almost gets his ass kicked by baby birds.
Speaker 2: But that's neither here nor there. The mama bird freaks
Speaker 2: out that there's all these armored Mandalorians in its home
Speaker 2: next to its babies to feed by the way, just
Speaker 2: trying to feed, Like obviously you want to get the
Speaker 2: kid back, but this it's just the doing nature. It's
Speaker 2: just doing its motherly instinct thing. It grabs the kid
Speaker 2: in its talent foot and it flies off. The Mandalorians
Speaker 2: give chase, and luckily they have they have gas this time,
Speaker 2: and they remember when they said, like, don't shoot it
Speaker 2: because it'll eat the kid. Now they're doing everything. They're
Speaker 2: shooting cables at it, they're shooting nets at it, they're
Speaker 2: flying up and trying to stab it in the eye
Speaker 2: with nothing.
Speaker 3: They're just like, you know what, they lose the kid,
Speaker 3: We got to kill the bod, Like why bill this bird?
Speaker 2: And eventually eventually they get the bird to let go
Speaker 2: of the kid. Din manages to you know, jet pack
Speaker 2: down and snatch him up before the kid hits the water.
Speaker 2: The mama bird sadly does hit the water and is
Speaker 2: quickly swallowed up by one of those crocodiles that we
Speaker 2: saw on episode one. Rip to the Mama Bird again
Speaker 2: just trying to satific.
Speaker 3: I just want to say something as well. You're telling
Speaker 3: me that a bad plan wouldn't have just to be
Speaker 3: find a mama bud while she's flying holding the kid,
Speaker 3: shoot her so that she lets go of the kid,
Speaker 3: and then one of you uses the jet pack to
Speaker 3: catch her. I'm saying this is basically this is very
Speaker 3: walking dead logic. You did twenty five things to get
Speaker 3: back to the thing.
Speaker 2: At the very least, we didn't need to wait a day.
Speaker 3: Exactly. That was a terrible idea.
Speaker 2: We didn't need to wait a day. Also, like, why
Speaker 2: why are we never using the stun feature in our
Speaker 2: blasters only? You know, like, can we set to stun
Speaker 2: a few times? Not just that we're shooting Princess Leiah.
Speaker 2: Like anyway, we head back to the covert. Everybody's happy
Speaker 2: as they should be, including Grog. They go to meet
Speaker 2: Bo's ship. The war party comes out and everybody's cheering,
Speaker 2: and Din goes over it picks up grogu like we
Speaker 2: did it. We killed a mama bird, Yeah.
Speaker 3: Baby, Dad, we killed this bed that probably wouldn't have
Speaker 3: attacked us if we'd have camped anywhere else except for
Speaker 3: these extremely dangerous lake.
Speaker 2: And the armor comes out and she's like, Bogatan, you
Speaker 2: have honored your house and all of Mandalor. You have
Speaker 2: done the highest honor of the creed saving a foundling.
Speaker 2: This is the way, This is the way, this is,
Speaker 2: this is the way. Baby, and Bo says, guess what
Speaker 2: we got more founilines. Wait what, that's right? The three
Speaker 2: babies who you thought were orphaned. You thought they were
Speaker 2: just gonna starve to death.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, Bo said absolutely.
Speaker 2: Both said absolutely not. This is kind of fucked up
Speaker 2: what we did. And I'm thankful for Bo for this.
Speaker 2: We are taking these three big baby birds in and
Speaker 2: you know what's gonna happen. We're gonna see Mandalorians.
Speaker 3: Like dragon buds. Absolutely. I just I just want to say,
Speaker 3: though this is I agree. I'm glad I did this.
Speaker 3: I was chair and when those giant baby dragon birds
Speaker 3: came out of the ship, I love the idea that
Speaker 3: you'd have to make helmets for them. It's great. But
Speaker 3: this does speak to another issue with the Mandalorian of kidnapping.
Speaker 3: Love kidnapping, A lot of kid muttering a parent and
Speaker 3: then being like, I shall raise you now.
Speaker 2: It's a lot of kid's gonna I am bath well, you know,
Speaker 2: to be fair, the jedis flat out kidnap as well.
Speaker 3: Exactly.
Speaker 2: It's it's a cultural problem, a very cultural problem, a
Speaker 2: lot of kidnapping. The Armor then takes Bow into the Forge,
Speaker 2: which is the heart of Mandalorian culture, to do some
Speaker 2: repairs on her armor. Uh. And bo Is like looks
Speaker 2: at the Mythosaur bust on the walls, like, hey, Mithosaur,
Speaker 2: and Army is like, yeah, Methosaur.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: And She's like, you know what, since you're doing these
Speaker 2: repairs and I need a new pauldron, can you make
Speaker 2: me a misosaur pauldron? I think though, And the armor
Speaker 2: is like that's fucking great. I love that.
Speaker 3: She's like any mandaloriancome were one. And that's a big
Speaker 3: moment for Bo on that kind of reconnecting with the
Speaker 3: like more now more contemporary Mandlerine culture.
Speaker 2: And so then bo is like, let me ask you
Speaker 2: a question. What would you say if I told you
Speaker 2: I saw as I saw and the armor is just
Speaker 2: like I'd say, you were very lucky. And Bo's like, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: you don't get it, Like I really I'm not like
Speaker 2: a visual like a real one. Like I didn't have
Speaker 2: a dream. This is like a real myss like I
Speaker 2: saw it, and the armor is just like very flatly.
Speaker 3: Okay, great, this is the way. That's good.
Speaker 2: I gotta I'm gonna go to the bathroom. No reaction,
Speaker 2: can I get any kind of like I Bow must
Speaker 2: be like, what like can I get no? Holy shit,
Speaker 2: the missaur's are back?
Speaker 3: Nope?
Speaker 2: Nothing, I know.
Speaker 3: I wonder when she said this is the way, It's
Speaker 3: like it's such a it's such a heavy line because
Speaker 3: it's like does she not believe bo is what she's
Speaker 3: actually saying? Like this is the way? So confused now
Speaker 3: yeah exactly because she's expecting that everyone's gonna be like,
Speaker 3: oh my god, this is it. But maybe the armor's
Speaker 3: acceptance is just like well yeah, that's like that's the way.
Speaker 3: Now you're gonna ride the mithosaur mandalo is gonna rise again.
Speaker 3: But it is like so funny, absolutely flat, just flat.
Speaker 2: Bow must have been like, why did I keep this
Speaker 2: secret for like who knows a week? Why didn't I
Speaker 2: just tell the Why didn't I just tell anybody? Because
Speaker 2: the armor is.
Speaker 3: Just like okay, I mean both talking around the campfire,
Speaker 3: they probably would have been more into it. The armor
Speaker 3: is not both that the armor is because.
Speaker 2: They can't because they are all walk away from each
Speaker 2: other conversations.
Speaker 4: Guys, right, so we're I don't know where anybody is,
Speaker 4: but I just won't.
Speaker 2: Say I saw his arm who said that his ball
Speaker 2: X ray vision will be back and we're back. Why
Speaker 2: do you think the armor is the arm Does she
Speaker 2: just like, no, it's back or did she? Was she
Speaker 2: expecting it? What is this reaction?
Speaker 3: I do? I think that Armorer's whole thing is kind
Speaker 3: of like led by preordained Mandalorian kind of law and belief.
Speaker 3: So to her, it's like, Okay, this woman that I
Speaker 3: never saw, who was never part of our covert has
Speaker 3: now appeared, and suddenly she's also seen a mythosole. Well,
Speaker 3: she was down in the minds of man law. You
Speaker 3: know what can I else? Can I say? This is
Speaker 3: the way? Like, I guess she's just gonna I think
Speaker 3: that hints that she accepts that the mythsoles are back,
Speaker 3: and probably that bow Maybe she thinks it's thin, But
Speaker 3: I think in the way she speaks about Bo's probably
Speaker 3: gonna be the one who writes.
Speaker 2: Let me ask you if I'm BO I'm like, Armor,
Speaker 2: why the fuck are we still hanging out here? The
Speaker 2: planet is open for business. We can go back and
Speaker 2: ps packed with best card.
Speaker 3: We talked about this the other day, like where why
Speaker 3: aren't they going there minding that best? Why is there
Speaker 3: even just two people who got said that? Yeah, I
Speaker 3: mean the Armor, like probably what would she say to
Speaker 3: you should be like this is.
Speaker 2: The way, that's like what she has to say. Now,
Speaker 2: there are there are some hostels in the area, Like
Speaker 2: that's gonna happen. But you guys are heavily armed.
Speaker 3: And the mandlawiers love to kill a creature. They'll just
Speaker 3: be happy to do it.
Speaker 2: They've been doing it every episode, slaughtering motherbirds and poor
Speaker 2: crocodile crocodiles that are just trying to eat. Just go.
Speaker 2: Why don't you do it on your homeworld?
Speaker 3: I know it does. I do wonder this might be
Speaker 3: reading too much into it, because I feel like the
Speaker 3: Armor is still a very enigmatic figure. But it does
Speaker 3: feel like the Armor has a reason to not go.
Speaker 3: That's what I want to know, because I feel like
Speaker 3: Din went there. Din was redeemed, so you must believe
Speaker 3: that Din went into the living waters in the minds
Speaker 3: of mandlaw. If that is the case, surely you would
Speaker 3: immediately just send an exploratory group there there was a
Speaker 3: reason you didn't want to go, And that's what I'm
Speaker 3: kind of most interested.
Speaker 2: There must be a reason. Or maybe it's that some
Speaker 2: of the coverts still aren't like sold on it's not
Speaker 2: radioactive anymore or something, But like why not just come back?
Speaker 3: But then why let bowed in in because surely, yeah,
Speaker 3: they'd make you sick, you know. I think it's very
Speaker 3: mysterious how many episodes is this season, because I feel
Speaker 3: like they're going to start to need eight episodes, so
Speaker 3: we're halfway through at this point. Yeah, I feel like
Speaker 3: they have to start to ramp up the answers to
Speaker 3: some of these questions. As everyone knows, I'm a big
Speaker 3: fan of the sequential kind of pulpy style, like you
Speaker 3: could go and see it in a cinema on a
Speaker 3: Saturday morning or you watch on a Saturday morning TV.
Speaker 3: So I like these kind of adventures. I love to
Speaker 3: see Carl Weather's back directing again, always the legend having
Speaker 3: the most fun making this show. But I feel like
Speaker 3: halfway through the season, are they going to go back
Speaker 3: to mandalor like what happened with that kind of Andrian
Speaker 3: kind of cloning snoke hint situation. Like, there's many different
Speaker 3: threads and I'm very interested to see whether the second
Speaker 3: half of this season is just going to be tying them.
Speaker 2: It feels like the last it feels like we end
Speaker 2: with the recolonization of Mandlord, Like they're going home. They
Speaker 2: have to go home at some point. You can't stay
Speaker 2: on this fucking bird infested, crocodile infested.
Speaker 3: They're worried about their man, and yet they're staying on
Speaker 3: this planet where multiple people are getting eat.
Speaker 2: Does it make the nest out of where are the trees?
Speaker 3: It makes it with the bones of all the Mandalorians
Speaker 3: is eating because there's others. Uh.
Speaker 2: These questions and more will be answered on a weekly
Speaker 2: basis right here on the x Ray Vision program as
Speaker 2: we cover the Mandalorian season three up next nerd Out.
Speaker 3: In today's nerd Out, where you tell us what you
Speaker 3: love and why, or a theory that you're excited to share.
Speaker 3: Sean from Maryland his own theory in reply to a
Speaker 3: previous theory from listener Swati and Emily about the increasing
Speaker 3: number of Mandalorian recruits, which is very relevant to this episode.
Speaker 2: Uh Sean says he's a longtime listener, first time emailer.
Speaker 2: Quote heard the latest fan theory posted by your Listener's.
Speaker 2: The easiest explanation for the large number of recruits might
Speaker 2: be this. They are left over clones. Clones are based
Speaker 2: on jingle FETs DNA. They could be genetically Mandalorian. They
Speaker 2: would all be older and former troopers, which would also
Speaker 2: explain why they sucked so bad the.
Speaker 3: Crocodile.
Speaker 2: You know what, I would not be shocked if, like
Speaker 2: at least a handful of these Mandalorians are Jengo clones.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I think that's actually a really great idea, not
Speaker 3: just necessarily because of like the like the idea of
Speaker 3: genetic Mandalorians, but the whole point of Mandalorians is that
Speaker 3: anyone can join and take the creed. So it would
Speaker 3: make sense that you would end up with soldiers and
Speaker 3: people who had left or escaped the empire putting on
Speaker 3: the helmet, never having to be seen again, not having
Speaker 3: to be recognized, being able to start a new life.
Speaker 3: I think that's very smart actually, And I think there's also, like,
Speaker 3: I know, we had a lot of jokes this episode
Speaker 3: because it's like a very funny situation, but like there's
Speaker 3: something emotionally weighty and moving, Yeah, that could be explored.
Speaker 3: And that's kind of the thing that Star Wars does
Speaker 3: so well, especially expanding out in these stories about clones,
Speaker 3: about manned law and the wider world.
Speaker 2: Well, I think, you know, with the inclusion of Kellern
Speaker 2: Beck and I'm a Best it is really a continuation
Speaker 2: of the kind of philosophy that Dave Filoni has taken
Speaker 2: when approaching this material, which is how do we fix
Speaker 2: the bad stuff?
Speaker 3: Yeah, in the amor Best casting, it's about fixing something
Speaker 3: that happened in the real world, which ads is kind
Speaker 3: of meta text. So I think there's something very interesting
Speaker 3: that I would be sad to know that those wonderful,
Speaker 3: you know, people who had tried to find a new place,
Speaker 3: these true who were used in a way that they
Speaker 3: didn't have much consent, would end up in the Mandalor Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3: He agrees with me that they would end up in
Speaker 3: the Mandalorian sect then immediately die by being beaten by
Speaker 3: a cryptail. That my heart. But I hope that if
Speaker 3: that is the case, that we might get to learn
Speaker 3: a little bit more about their stories because I think
Speaker 3: that's a great I think that's a great theory.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Sean.
