    Yes I know my version of Episode 10 was green. No I don't know why lmao, but it looks cool.
  • @LukeSkywalker6
    For the people who feel bad for Nala Se… remember she was the one who stopped Fives.
  • @CBMX_GAMING
    I'm surprised you didn't mention, rest in peace to their ship!!!
  • @brandencosper153
    Anyone else notice the music on episode 11. The soundtrack was amazing.
  • @Bread-nx9fo
    I liked the inclusion of the line by Bane when he hands over the child. If anyone remembers, he was tasked with hunting down children the Jedi wanted by Sidious. Basically just doing the same job for the Empire but its legal now. Also his motif in the episode was great as always
  • @NoahR_
    I've never given Nala Se a pass because of how hard she screwed over Fives by drugging him.
  • That device is a connection because it shows this man's body parts. One of those parts is HUGE.
  • @fredbyoutubing
    The Dr was raised the same way the children were. She's doing little acts of compassion but she's a prisoner herself. It's not like she can quit her role without consequences.
  • This episode solidified what I think in that Omega doesn’t actually have a high M-count herself, but rather that her blood can be used to stabilize other samples with inflated M-counts
  • @khelatar
    Crosshair didn't really miss that shot, he didn't get the chance to shoot in time and when he did the ship had already moved out of range. You can clearly see the tracker fly towards it and then arc downwards, with the ship being further away the whole time.
  • It was nice that they said Scorch’s name in dialogue for the first time. Before it was only in the credits. I’d like to know what happened to Delta after Kashyyk and order 66 in canon. It would be a great story to tell and show how Scorch is seemingly separated from his squad.

    Dr. Karr isn’t “allowing” the empire to do anything, it’s not up to her. She explicitly acknowledges in the episode that she doesn’t have the power to do anything for them. She cares, but her problem is not that she isn’t doing enough, it’s that doing anything risks her being punished and replaced by someone who cares about the children less. Remember, Nala Se cares about people but had to be replaced for doing something to help someone. The message is that, within an authoritarian structure, only few individuals actually have enough power to noticeably influence and change the institution from within, those few being at the top. No increase of will changes how much power she actually has in her situation.
  • To me, Emerie is a neutral figure whose job is purely for science. She's probably questioning if she too is just a specimen.
  • I’m curious to see if Emerie is going to either betray Hemlock or not
  • @GGBlaster
    It’s true that Emerie has so far failed to really stand up against evil and try to make real, positive change. However, these small acts of kindness show that she does have a heart, and suggest that she may yet truly redeem herself. Another thing to note, Emerie probably feels powerless to stop this child experimentation (for now). She barely got the job, the person she’s replaced is now behind bars, and even the on-site security talks down to her. Add onto that the fact that SHE asked for the promotion; it’d raise eyebrows if she suddenly turned it down. She could’ve been promoted to lead of the Empire’s entire scientific division, and it wouldn’t matter, cause she’s being treated like an unappreciated secretary. Furthermore, there’s likely a palpable danger she felt as soon as she realized the moral depravity of the Empire. If they would go so far as to experiment on children, what might they do to people who step out of line?
  • I'm definitely getting the feeling Emerie is going to finally turn against the Empire, and Crosshair's failure to hit with the tracking device is setting her up for final good guy turn as what allows Omega to contact the Batch. Some of the statements seem to imply that she was discarded by Nala Se and then essentially raised by Hemlock. And that can't be good for any child's development.
  • @K113-A
    When Scorch said "I was just following protocols" it sounded similar to "good soldier follows order" Dang
  • @Cameron39829
    Man I really wish they did somthing with Boba in this show, maybe not getting directly involed but just some kind of close call
  • @KaiserZERO
    Yeah I saw the Dark Trooper connection when I watched the episodes. I thought it would be related to Phase Zero but it could also be Phase I.
