![MANDALORIAN 2x08 Breakdown: Every Star Wars Easter Egg + What Happens to Grogu After [SPOILER]?](/img/n.gif)
What did you think of the episode?
It got one episode to Ashoka tano so
I genuinely don't know how they keep making each episode better and better. This episode really draws you in with familiar faces and backstory, this show has the potential to make the sequels a wee bit better while not taking away from Mando
I think that republic symbol he puts down is also supposed to be like a Marshall’s badge for Cara to wear, showing she’s enforcing the law in the name of the republic or something like that
Can I just jump in and comment on how in the artwork for the episode, in the cloning vats, none of the clones have legs and most of them are missing an arm. That reminds me of Darth Vader, not Snoke.
Loved the action but not the story, the clone thing wasn't much of a surprise really. The speeder stormtrooper descention was awesome, felt really badass. Do you know if fundog77 have an IG account?
I could’ve watched Mando talk to the child about wires for hours tbh
Great scene
100th like.. You're welcome, btw..
Same
I wish the show was just them in scenes like this.
A ‘ship in a bottle’ episode of just the two of them interacting would be great.
Baby Yoda dying to bring about Snoke or Palpatine would be the most upsetting Star Wars moment of all time.
Hmmm, I don't know, this franchise has had plenty of upsetting moments. Being sold to Disney. Hiring Rian Johnson. Episode II. The Christmas Special! Argh! The memories. They burn!!
@@just_some_random_guy
Episode II was good and necessary
Killing the best to bring the worts , i really hope they dont go that way but is a possibility
i feel like the imperials will fail to get baby yoda at the end of the show and then we will cut to the empire being like, "its all good. we found another blood doner that will work just as well" maybe ezra or somthing
No, it would totally makes sense. You need to try at least to have an open mind.
The handshake between Karga and Mando reminded me a little of cinema’s greatest ever handshake: between Carl Weathers and Arnie in Predator.
Nice callback
yeap i had the same feeling has you when i saw that scene
The heat vision in the last episode was very predatoresque. I think that was very much on purpose. Nice catch.
All of these make sense, given Carl Weathers directed this episode.
Gideon's ship is an Arquitens-class cruiser first used by the Republic during the Clone Wars
Its not a very big ship at all, very small for a Moff. If they are going down that route I was hoping they would have went for the Victory II-class frigate if they weren't going to use an ISD2. Because the Arquitens is very old at this point and its not by any means a powerful ship. It could barely even 1v1 a Munificent-class star frigate from the CIS in clone wars.
YES. I'm so glad I wasn't the only one who noticed that.
Indeed
It's probably just for the remote lab
for someone like him should have a star destroyer
There is another theory going around just based on that fact actually. People think thrawn is possibly heading this entire operation while Gideon is just overseeing the baby yoda exfil. Its both very unlikely and likely. I guess we will see
@@nickrael5693 You need to get out more.
The mechanic is a Mimbanese, a species from Mimban first seen in Solo: A Star Wars Story. A member of the species was also part of Enfys Nest's Cloud Riders, and one of the members of Vanguard Squadron in Star Wars: Squadrons is also Mimbanese
I knew he looked familiar.
I thought it looked like the scientist who worked on the Zillo beast in clone wars.
I love all the mimbanese showing up, that taste of mimban in solo scratched my itch after the planet was mentioned in an early ep of the clone wars
Same species as gunny, the cyborg ace pilot badass that was so tuff she made clone troopers look twice
Ur fuckin hired, bud.
The animal is Timon from the Lion King. he had the same agent as Timothy Oliphiant and really likes the show
His actual name on Wookiepedia is Teebo Timon THX
He works in OWCA
@@lajbartek360 I love organizations without a cool acronyms. really gets you in the feels when their acronym isn't good, because all these people get amazing expensive acronyms.
2:15 That creature is basically a nod to Jon Favreau's previous super hit project "The Lion King" where this animal resembles "Timon" 😍
There’s no railing is the greatest line of the episode.
i too immediately thought of the family guy reference when i heard it lol
@@manuelramirez4067 i just want a railing , you know? one railing right here vv
_OSHA would like to know your location._
I think you missed
"There they are! Blast them!"
I noticed that.
Classic
"Blast em!" was also in Episode 3 of this season.
Dumbest question in Star Wars: did you lose anyone in alderaan
I don't know, maybe they survived the destruction of the planet lol
Really dumb question
@@SUPEROSISO1 Many Alderaanians survived if they were off world. The prologue mission of Squadrons has you protecting a convoy of them
@@sirboomsalot4902 I know, but if they were on the planet they sure didn't. I was joking
Hey Rose, did you lose anyone on the Titanic?
I know... I was like didn’t the entire planet blow up unexpectedly?!
Acording to Star wars. com databank the "space weasel" is a LAVA MEERKAT , i think they appear on the season one finale....
You can even see it breathing fire in the face of one of the aliens in the concept art during the credits
@@megaplays2748 Sounds like the fire ferret from Korra lol
@@EzioHanitore I think it's an intentional Avatar reference, as Dave likes to do from time to time.
You took his bait.
I feel like everytime he says he doesnt know what something is and asks to be told in the comments, hes lying to generate comment activity for the video.
Which, fine, ask for community activity, but dont fucking lie and manipulate to get it. Just dirty.
@@tequilawhiskey LMAO maybe he just doesn't know?
The Spanish subtitles actually say "midichlorians" instead of just M, so that pretty much confirms it.
I dont mind midiclorians overall but i bet the fanbase is gonna be upset
@@anubisfox5765 the force is separate from midichlorians all the other fans need to do some research. The force is the force and midichlorians are an organism that the force is strong in and medichlorians are responsible for reproduction. Star Wars terms applied to real life home boy has good genes almost like he is a clone of some sort, thus Abilene was made by palpating or plaigus.
@@anubisfox5765 basically midichlorians is a measure of potential, not power. it doesn't dentate the force but is just a convenient way to measure potential and overall attractiveness to the force I would say. for example, Revan didn't have an abnormal amount of midichlorians, but he was crazy strong with the force because of his knowledge of the force and his refusal to be weakened by narrow dogmatic vies of the Jedi or the Sith
El traductor se lo pudo sacar del culo. No es la traducción correcta.
Bueno
Things i noticed:
1) This is probably the most realistic Baby Yoda We have seen.
2) Wild theory, but i think its more probable that Moff Gidion wants to make force sensitive Troopers, as opposed to them tying it into the sequel trilogy.
3) I think that they have a much larger budget.
4) Ahsoka is totally coming in, in the next episode.
"Moff Gidion wants to make force sensitive Troopers" YES! That would be so much better than connecting it to Palpatine.
@@pearlsandstars829 And i think it would tie in with Ahsoka more. Can you imagine ahsoka fighting Force sensitive Storm/clone Troopers?
Yes that makes so much sense!
@@noahsguitar7022 Seriously, that's a very good idea. Let's hope they write such a good storyline instead of crashing and burning the plot again, as usual.
It’s not “more probable” that they wouldn’t tie things into the sequels. In fact, connecting this show to the sequels is way more likely, regardless of how much you may or may not want to see that happen.
I was so worried there would be no “your mom” joke in there
they are terrible
Always good for a chuckle.
Once in a blue moon is good but constantly, it could get annoying.
@@moviemayhem3780 eh? Did you not watch them all?
@@moviemayhem3780 : very much like your mom.
That “snoke” soundtrack was originally played during the darth plageuis scene in episode 3
Oh, okay. Ty
Oh thank goodness
that's why people thought Plagueis was Snoke
If the child dies ill be pissed, surely they’ll think of something else other than killing him off for snoke
They will use ahsoka
@@user-lm7lv8dz8g They won’t. Snoke isn’t successfully created for 30 years, so the Empire won’t be getting anyone any time soon.
@Stuart Atkinson honestly I hope they don't bridge towards the bullshit rey trilogy.
Don't you think that Gideon wants to maybe ... get some for sensitivity for himself? Dark Saber and all :D
It's exactly what i think. You're not alone
Giddion is snoke
He just needs to go down to the Empire's HR department. They have all kinds of seminars on learning sensitivity. I don't know how effective it is tho. They made me go and it doesn't change the fact that *you got a big fat ass, BRENDA!*
That’s exactly what I thought.
@@Posit_Zero_Blue 😂😂😂
The mandalorian is probably the best Star Wars since Star Wars. Absolutely brilliant 😁
Did anyone else catch the "Leia meeting up with Wicket after falling off the bike in Episode 6" bit that Cara Dune did with the weasel in the cold opener? She kinda said the same lines that Leia said to Wicket when they first met.
Since Cara and Leia both live in alderaan and both lost the planet that they used to care for and everyone closer to them. I wonder if they knew each other.
@@disneyknightspadilla1406 Normally I'd say highly unlikely, but Cara would know who Leia is, being royalty. However, this is Star Wars where it seems everyone is related to or has connections with each other, so ... I s'pose it's possible.
There’s a 99% chance they’ve met, given how close-knit the Alderaanians were in the Rebellion. Leia’s dad was their leader, and she took the mantle after he died. But I don’t think they were more than acquaintances.
@@disguisedcentennial835 not Dad, adopted dad.
@@disneyknightspadilla1406 Spoilers, man! :D
When Mando was trying to get The Child to switch the wires, I kept thinking, "THIS one goes there, THIS one goes there - right?"
I just realized that we’ve already seen every shot of the trailer in the last 4 ep. So the next 4 ep are completely new! Which is a bit weird since season 1 trailers showed shots from even the last ep.
i kinda got the feeling that the Moff was trying to make force sensitive Death Troopers
Ever played Jedi Knight II Jedi Outcast?
@@ShadowwingMD the ones in Jedi Knight 2 were Shadow Troopers. The Force sensitive Dark Troopers were in the Dark Forces Video game, and Dark Empire comics.
I hope so, I don't want this to tie straight I to the sequals, that shit still needs to be retconned.
No one’s mentioned the fact that the macaroons the child gets his hands on are the colour of Bantha milk. Bantha milk macaroons, baby!
When baby yoda is trying to score those macrons from that kid, the droid is discussing Kessel and how it has 2 different orbits. This is to make up for the inconsistency in the kessel run. Why there's sometimes a storm (in Solo), and why there sometimes isn't (Clone Wars S7). It's faint in the background and you may need the subtitles on to catch it all.
Macaroons are coconut covered treats... Baby Yoda wants a Macaron 🙃
It’s a spacecookie, for all we know it’s made from ground up wompa’s
...and Blue Milk!
I thought they looked like mint dipped Oreos.
I’ve been waiting for this all day
You aren't the only one
Same
11:01 That's an Arquitens-class cruiser, not a Star Destroyer
Thank you! This wasn’t a hard one to get flubbed so poorly.
with each new episode, the mandalorian is outshining the Disney sequels at every turn. the canyon chase in this episode was SO DOPE. just jaw-droppingly cool. and the way they showed off the newly repaired razor crest at the end was a great climax. from the call backs to past Star Wars to the new and INTERESTING storyline. I can't believe this is an actual TV show. even the stiff acting from some of the characters is forgivable because they are opening up this universe in a way that fans have always wanted. it's like an EU made by super nerdy SW fans with access to the best fx tools in the world. I wish these guys would have been given a crack at the sequels. they would have killed it. and I love how they aren't solving every problem with baby Yoda's force abilities. the only time he's used it this season is to steal candy from a kid. so god damn cute. when Mando is trying to explain to him how to plug in the wires and he's just like "eh?". and baby Yoda's reactions to the fire fight at the end. OMG. it's a damn near perfect show.
You're right on the mark when you said "It's like an EU made by super nerdy SW fans with access to the best fx tools in the world." That's pretty much what's going on. The people working on this show (Dave Filoni, Jon Favreau, and others) are all HUGE Star Wars fans, and very talented directors, animators, etc. and they have the opportunity to bring to life what fans such as themselves have been wanting.
@@COOPERx223x agreed. that was basically my (poorly worded) point. how cool is it that these "nerds" get access to the best source material and the best technology to create it with? and successfully giving the fans what they want. props to all the creators. especially the composer. when the theme comes in after the razor crest defeats the tie fighters, so powerful. I find myself singing along to that damn theme every time. lol
Loved the canyon chase especially when tbe Tie Fighters took off, bought a big smile to my face 😁
Think I rewinded it 4 times.
Moff Gideon is on an imperial arquiten not a star destroyer. The arquitens are light cruisers.
I love hearing the storm troopers yell "There they are, blast them!"
The spy is a native to Mimban, this species also appeard in Star Wars Squadrons.
And in solo
This season is giving me a very "Empire Strikes Back" feeling with the Razor Crest being tracked by the Imps like Boba Fett tracking Han Solo. Another example is the main character finding a very powerful force user to train another force user in the ways of the Jedi.
So we aren't gonna talk about the predator handshake? Oh. Alright then...
That moment when you just start searching for this video
Something a 15 year old teenage girl would comment
"You will be rewarded in the new era." Translation: You will be paid with M Bison dollars.
1:26 shows clip from Guardians of the Galaxy 2

Correction gina carano never fought in the ufc. She fought in strikeforce. Shes a former mma fighter.
Beat me to it.
Same god damn thing mma stands for mixed marshal arts UFC's is marshal arts
@@prestonthetoxic3665 ufc stands for what now?
@@prestonthetoxic3665 to the casual its the same god damn thing. UFC is the fighting promotional organization. MMA is the name of the sport. "This is the way"
From fighting Cyborg, to fighting...Cyborgs
New to this channel, is there always a great “your mom” joke at the end? I was caught off guard haha
You’ll see.
Go watch the previous videos, you'll be delighted.
My favorite little extension after i watch each breathtaking high octane Mando episode. Thanks for scratching that itch.
Macaroons (double ‘o’) are coconut things.
Those were macarons (single ‘o’).
The weasel-thing looks like a space-meerkat.
The practical effects were choppy, but still better than the Lion King remake
Once again the Resistance march plays when the x-wing pilot is talking.
how amazing is it that these guys can put out a video this quickly
Love it...thank you for the explanations...I missed most of these references!!!
What we know so far:
1. Mandalorians had been hunted since the Purged
2. There is an increased price and demand for their Beskar...
Theory: what if Gideon is using the beskar on his dark troopers? Dark troopers wearing beskar armor and ability to use the force... a squadron of them will be near unstoppable....
That’s a pretty good theory actually
@@SimplyJohn155 I had the same thought today! And I still agree with it after drinking a bottle of port wine!
Copy paste ass
That would draw the attention of the New Republic
If that were the case, then Herzog wouldn't have hired Mando to bring in Baby Yoda at the cost of more Beskar steel. He might have done the hire, but would have double crossed him at the first opportunity to take both Baby Yoda AND what little beskar Mando had. Or simply use Mando locate the rest of the hiding Mandolorians.
Where’s the “that’s your mom” line? Wait, there it is. 😂😂😂
Fuck yeah
Thank you for explaining it all!!! Appreciate it!
11:54 lol, almost didn’t say it again! When you say that, it’s the funniest part of the video!
When baby Yoda and Mando were drinking stew in mando’s ship, mando lifted his helmet to take a sip. I think this shows that he was impacted by Bo-Katan’s Mandalorian culture. Because before he never showed even part of his face.
Possibly, or the raiders are just showing us how he eats and drinks around the child they just never took the time to show the audience before
2:27 this spy is a Minbanes. Its surprisingly that he is working the Remnant Empire since his world was subjugated for its ore by CIS and later the Empire.
Man i'm really suprised every Werk... So much into these Hidden easter eggs.
Salute Sir 🙌
As always great job with the recap, thank you.

excellent work on this one guys.
Love the poster on the wall to his right, The Warriors us a classic and such a very good movie. It made me live NYC as a kid
Can we just take a sec and appreciate how Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni are now going out of their way to save the prequel trilogy after singlehandedly saving the franchise with their incredible leadership
I'd REALLY rather they didn't, and just concentrated on making (keeping) THIS series great.
And the sequel trillogy (with at least some explanations for stuff)
Please, don’t tie The Mandalorian into the Disney trilogy. That would cheapen the series.
After the discussion of Alderan and the New Republic, a slow rendition of The March Of the Resistance plays.
Very informative. Thanks.
great breakdown. loved the episode. keep up the great work
Do you like the potential Mando/Palpatine connection?
eehh... even if we dont.. its innevitable.. sadly..
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!! Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy? Didn't they learn their lesson already? Everyone hated that storyline. Do not connect the Mandalorian to Palpatine. To clone making, yes. To Palpatine, no.
No! I don't want anything as dumb as the sequel trilogy being incorporated into the Mandalorian.
No i hope they dont ruin this tv show by connecting it with the shitty disney movies
I do. I appreciate anything that will bring coherency to the Skywalker saga just as much as I appreciate Rogue One.
When you first started talking about the red faced Mimbanese mechanic, I was so ready for the “that’s your mom” joke. Nice fake out
i really liked how they use some of the same storm trooper lines as in a new hope when they’re running through the halls
The sound of the convor echoing before Ahsoka makes her moves in the beginning of the episode. Just something I noticed watching the episode the second time.
Baby Yoda doesn't have to die. Even the scientist says he took all the blood he could without killing Baby Yoda. They probably want to keep him alive so that they have a constant source of his blood. Don't scare me with these evil thoughts
The only way that the Disney Star Wars trilogy could get any worse is if they killed Baby Yoda to set the whole damn thing up.
Oh now come on. There are LOTS of ways they could make it worse. Bring back Lucas for one.
@@michaelmyers8930 Lucas would be better than what kk and rj
@@northernyetigaming8566 I said “for one”, but Lucas ran out of ideas long before he wrote the prequels for teenagers instead of the fan base that began with sitting in the theatre to see A New Hope. He could have written for us and a new generation, but dialogue and plot development is not his thing. Story writing is his thing.
@Daz Mcclean It's already been shown that his "ideas" have changed over time. His ideas for the prequels could have been great, but the delivery was bad. Apparently people forget that. If Favreau had directed the prequels, or even the sequels they would have been better. It's impossible to say whether the sequels would have been good with Lucas at the helm with his ideas. The only thing we DO know is that the prequels failed to deliver what Star Wars fans wanted with him at the helm with his ideas. So it's not a valid argument.
@@northernyetigaming8566 Do you have to be reminded that Lucas gave us 'Midichlorians' as a reward for waiting 16 years for a new Star Wars movie?
One thing I noticed was when the rebel pilot was talking to Cara, a very similar theme to the Resistance’s theme was playing in the background.
@Ryan, thanks for the review...
I have as much fun watching your videos as I have watching the actual show.
Congratulations.
on a serious note when is the sequels going to be decanonised
Unfortunately it looks like they are leading to a connection to those messes.
@@14bface I mean, I would be all for it if my some miracle this show or another does to the sequels what The Clone Wars did for the prequels, but that is wishful thinking
On a serious note: Never. Sorry bruh
@@sirboomsalot4902 yeah. It just seems like a way to difficult of a task
they already are
Gina Carano never fought in the UFC. She fought in Strikeforce.
True. He should have just said MMA fighter.
However Zuffa, LLC, the parent company of the UFC has bought Strikeforce. Carano was scheduled to fight since that time, but fights were cancelled for various reasons.
The original women fighting in cages was Ryan Arey's Mom, so I was surprised by his mistake.
Awesome and on point, as usually. You rock man.
Thanks, Ryan! 🌌
Not an Easter Egg, but a general observation regarding The Child and Yoda’s species. They both aren’t above using the Force to get junk food. In the novel “Yoda: Dark Rendezvous”, Yoda (disguised as an astromech droid) uses the Jedi Mind trick on a pair of kids to steal their (essentially) French fries and soda. It’s a funny bit and reminded me of the scene in the classroom.
Or when he tries to steal the food from Luke 😂😂
What if the mandaloroan leads them to Asoka and they kill her for the midicholorians
its either her or baby yoda... damn it hurts my heart just to think about it :(
that'd honestly be a good end for her. I'm down
She will sacrifice her life for baby yoda so he can train the new Jedi
@@michaelcruz2544 i mean its a good end for her, but i really don't want it to happen. that beeing said, it makes perfect sense, but it upsets me that they might just kill her off because they forgot to put her on the sequels
They sure as heck won’t kill Ashoka, well not in this. If she dies it will probably be in the Rebels sequel Dave is working on
Great work by Mr. Weathers.
Absolutely awesome work yet again! I would totally follow you into battle!
People online have called this a "filler episode" but they clearly were not paying attention. I too went "Oh sh*t !...Here we go again!" when a new side-quest appeared, but the eventually realized critical importance of the revelations inherent to the side-quest made me appreciate how important it was to the development of the storyline.
Keep up the brilliant work!
This is the way.
Its Ashoka that the empire wants, they said that baby Yoda does not have enough blood. So they need someone who is human sized.
*Ahsoka, not Ashoka.
No lol
"I highly doubt we'll find a donor with a higher M-count" is most likely why they went after the child instead of looking for someone else already grown up
How do you get all this info so quick after the episode release?? Great work
The "Resistance" theme plays near the end when the pilot gives the rebel medallion to Cara !
I noticed this too! I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned
I hope they don’t tie this series into the sequel trilogy. I couldn’t watch that.
This was the best episode so far. I've been watching for this video.
P.s. I loved the mirroring shot from RotJ Speeder bike acceleration
I don't think those clones are Snoke (or Palpatine), I think Moff Gideon trying make his own force-sensitive troops.
Me too I think his project will be jacked my some one for Palp and snokey.
Definitely a connection tho. Even if it’s unrelated, wayy too much connective tissue to just be a coincidence
I sure hope it isn't snoke or palp
@@lvx4408 let's be honest here, is obviously going to lead to that in a way, while it could also be it own thing considering there's a lot of jedi out there like ezra, Cal, and powerful enemies like admiral thrown this will all connect to the sequels in a way.
The alien fixing Mando's ship has nothing to do with Ochi from episode IX, however he is the same species as Gunny, your commanding officer in the video game Star Wars Squadrons.
The mechanic working on the razorcrest is the same species who were fixing obi wan's star fighter on utapau in revenge of the Sith
Great breakdown as always
I refuse to believe that baby yoda will die in the show
.....search your feelings....
I'm telling yah.....My Mom better be making some good royalties being in these shows...
I love you Mom.
Great job. I thought some of the shots of the Tie fighters chasing the transport in the Valley or Ravine reminded me of the bomb run on the Death Star from The New Hope 😁😁👍
This episode's continuity is AMAZING.
I was really hoping you’d bing up the THERMAL DETONATOR that the scout trooper was gonna use I play a lot of battlefront when I seen that I thought something bad was gonna happen
Imploder, the detonators are round.
I don't know where you guys got thermal imploders/detonators from. Those are smart ion grenades
I'm guessing moff gideon is planning create some imperial Battle droids. Because that's what Mando previously hated.
:D
Awesome video 👌
I love how you described "dank ferricc"
The theory about Pershing's failed experiments being early Snokes is doubly undone for two reasons. One, Pershing in his message states that volunteers were transfused with Baby Yoda's M-rich blood. Note that, volunteers not clones were the failed results of the blood transfusions. Two, Snoke was most likely created by strand casting on Exegol by the Sith cultists sometime before the Fall of the Republic and rise of the Empire since it has been stated in past material that Snoke had seen the fall of the former and the rise of the latter. It is unclear if Snoke was created on Palpatine's order or not.
It doesn't mean that the science couldn't have been appropriated to make Snoke. Even if they're not directly making Snoke, it's definitely a step towards that, intentional or not.
@@PhazonX That's a theory and Gideon's remnant may be the Imperial Rim Remnant that is to go to the Unknown Regions to join with Sloane's remnant to form the First Order. But as I said before Snoke has been around longer since at least 22 BBY to 19 BBY. The Mandalorian takes place around 9 ABY. The prevailing theory that connects with the Dark Trooper style armor or droid frames at the end is that Moff Gideon is trying to infuse Dark Trooper armor-clad soldiers with Jedi reflects. Of course, we will have to wait and see what develops beyond what we have seen so speculating is fine just with cation so that we don't disappoint ourselves as many did when TLJ came out.
Lol off course palps ordered it...wtf
Everybody gansta till the empire starts using Space Marines
FOR THE EMPEROR *SOUNDS OF BOLTER FIRE*
You can hear a few notes of (or an homage to) the Rogue One theme when Dune and Teva are talking at the end of the episode. Of course, this theme is itself lifted from the score of ANH when Obi-Wan is trying to enlist Luke to go with him to Alderaan and join the rebellion.
damn thats some serious deep diving... thanks
Archer fans?
That's how you get ants!!
Dark-troopers also appeared in Rebels.
Exactly with Thrawn
Those were Imperial Sentry Droids.
They were Death-Troopers in Rebels.
Imperial sentries dude
Godamnit the mom joke always gets me... as always great breakdown! I love how much you use small clips to actually show these easter-egg connections, instead of just telling us "this is from Ep4 remember?"
Am I the only one who noticed that the Baby Yoda with the wires scene is a call back to Han/Chewie fixing the Falcon in empire strikes back?
