FunTranscript
00:00 Hey guys, welcome back to our reaction to Ahsoka. Today we're watching episode 6 and
00:06 wow, last week's episode was insane. We've had so many conversations with you guys and with people
00:17 around us in our lives and everyone is like hyped on the show. Everyone that we've talked to is like
00:23 obsessed. They loved it and it's so fun to feel the joy of all the collective fans together. Like
00:31 we all agree this is some of the best Star Wars we've seen. So there are some holdouts.
00:35 I've read online some holdouts but I'm pretty sure... You can't please everyone. Yeah, I'm pretty sure
00:41 those folks just like to like hate on everything that Hollywood puts out and granted, Hollywood
00:47 has put out some garbage in the past few years, I would concede. But it's like even if you get
00:55 like something good, they'll complain. And so we loved the show and we loved this show last week
01:03 and the episode last week and we really appreciated... We laughed, we cried, as you know. We really
01:10 appreciated what they did in that episode for the characters. I feel like they built on the Star Wars
01:15 mythos and on the Star Wars character arcs that we all know and love. They added to that. Dave
01:20 Filoni added and Hayden Christensen added and built upon and Rosario Dawson added and built upon
01:27 such a good, firm foundation and they really built something great and beautiful. And so we really,
01:33 really loved it and we really appreciated all of your guys' amazing comments and the attention that
01:39 our last video received, especially in regard to our conversation post the episode. You guys
01:45 I think were resonating with us and feeling what we were saying and so I thank you guys so much for
01:50 your support and for watching with us and for your comments and sharing your opinions on the episode.
01:56 Honestly, it's been such a fun week and moments like this really are special to us because I
02:04 think that they give us something to kind of look forward to, you know, every day after posting a
02:11 video and that is really going back and seeing what you guys have to say. So you guys are adding
02:17 joy to our lives by interacting with our videos. So thank you so much for that. We really, really
02:21 appreciate it. We're so excited to see what they do this week and how they follow that up. Yeah.
02:26 What do you think is going to happen? Well, do we get to see Thrawn in this episode? Yeah,
02:33 I know, right? Are they holding him out for the end of the show or are they finally introducing
02:39 the main bad guy? I mean, they could totally like do something completely unexpected and just
02:48 not go to the new galaxy at all. And like this whole next episode takes place in the
02:53 main Star Wars galaxy still and they still skip an episode. I'm worried that something like
02:58 terrible is going to happen with Ezra. Oh yeah, you think so? I don't know. You think he's coming
03:03 in this episode? No, I don't know. I'm just saying I just have a hunch that more bad things are
03:10 coming. Yeah. Yeah. I especially with Sabine. I really wonder how they're going to reconcile
03:18 all of the new Republic stuff with the fact that all of the main characters of the show
03:24 are now in a new galaxy. You know what I mean? How are they going to bridge that? Because it
03:31 kind of feels like we've been jettisoned from everything that we know. And how is this relatively
03:37 like, are we going to make it back to the main Star Wars galaxy by the time this is over? You
03:43 know what I mean? Like, how are they going to bridge those gaps? I have no idea. So like,
03:48 I guess I'm saying that because I theorized that we would see like, Rex would be like a main
03:53 character for part of the show. That was one of my bingo, bingo like slots. And we got him as a
04:00 cameo, but we haven't really seen him, you know, and so it's like, okay, now for the rest of the
04:04 show, is it just kind of rolling with the people that we know, and going in a completely new
04:09 direction? Who knows? Only time will tell. Only time will tell. Yeah. The other big thing is,
04:16 my question for this is, are we going to finally get a little bit more insight into Balin and Shin?
04:23 Because they were like, kind of the coolest parts about this show, leading up to the last episode.
04:28 And now that we've kind of wrapped up the last episode, now we're picking back up with
04:33 the bad guys, which I think were the coolest parts of the show already, you know. And with that,
04:38 also, are we combining the coolest parts of the show? And are we going to be getting more Anakin?
04:43 What do you think? My instinct says no, but it would be cool. I'm gonna be devil's advocate
04:54 then, and say my instinct says yes, and we'll compete for an extra bingo point. Oh wow. Yeah,
05:01 okay. So maybe we'll see Anakin again, is what my vote is. So anyway. If you enjoyed this video,
05:10 make sure to give it a like, so that the YouTube algorithm knows that our videos are fun,
05:19 and it's just a good, like, easy way to support the channel, and we always appreciate it. And if
05:23 you want to see more reactions and fun stuff that we've got coming out soon, be sure to subscribe.
05:28 Comment below what you would like us to react to. Yes, make suggestions. Because we have a
05:35 playthrough of a video game, Outer Wilds, going right now, and then this, and we have some movie
05:40 reactions in the works. But yeah, let us know what you want to see. We also have a Patreon,
05:44 which we will be building up more in the future, but for now, it's a great way to also support the
05:51 channel. And so we're super thankful for you guys. And yeah, make sure to let us know what you think
05:57 of this episode. Yes. But for now, let us watch this episode of Ahsoka. A long time ago. In a
06:07 galaxy. In a galaxy. No! What? Dude! What? That is one of the, that is the first time. That just
06:18 became canon? That just became canon. That is the first time we've heard that. That whole thing just
06:25 became diegetic. A galaxy far, far away. The episode is, wow. Dude, and they're going to one.
06:32 My mind is blown. That's so cool. Wow, that is so meta in such a good way. Okay, I'm done.
06:39 We had a deal. You promised me I would see Ezra again.
06:47 Hey! Hey! We had a deal!
06:50 I like his smug little smirk. I believe she can still do some use to us.
06:59 Project complete. Sly dog.
07:03 Preparing to exit hyperspace. Oh my gosh. What? What's it going to be like? Oh, I'm so excited.
07:12 New galaxy! We made it. We made it, guys. We made it. Finally.
07:18 They've been teasing this for three episodes. Bruh.
07:23 The ancient homeworld of my ancestors. What? The Jedi archive spoke of this place.
07:31 The end of the migration route used by the star whales as they traversed the void from one galaxy
07:38 to the other. In the days before time was counted. Oh, wow. The whales came here to die.
07:43 The land before time? Yeah. There's a graveyard.
07:47 They came here to die? Whale carcasses? But they wouldn't decompose in space.
07:56 Why wouldn't they? Because there's no oxygen, there's no bugs, there's no- it's a vacuum.
08:07 I don't think they could decompose in space. I don't know. Not in the same way.
08:10 They could still freeze and break off though, right? Don't laugh at us if we're completely wrong.
08:15 Whoa. Whoa.
08:19 Are they implying like this is where the Dathomir magic comes from, is this other galaxy?
08:30 Pre-based statues. Yeah.
08:32 Oh, it's ominous. How long have they been here is my question.
08:40 Thrawn and Ezra? Yeah, like how does time work in this? Oh, yeah, good question. You know,
08:46 I mean in this, in the main galaxy it's been like 10 years, I don't know. 10 years? It's
08:54 been a long time. I know I could be wrong. Yeah, I think it's been like 10 years. 10? I think so.
09:00 I don't know, correct me if I'm wrong. I thought it was like a few years. No,
09:04 because Mando takes place- oh, maybe five. It might be five. I don't know.
09:08 What is going on? Whoa, Night Sisters! Oh my gosh. Okay, these are Night Sisters. The first
09:15 ones we've really seen. Yeah, these are the first like legitimate Night Sisters. Whoa.
09:20 Welcome child of Dathomir. To our ancestors credit.
09:28 Great mother. This looks like it's from Dune. This totally gives off Dune vibes.
09:37 He didn't look comfortable. I don't think he likes the witches. I was sensing some vibes. Yeah.
09:53 Wolves? Whoa. The wolves. Are those the Lothwolves, do you think? I don't know.
10:00 How would they get to Pyridia? I have no idea. They're wolves though. Man,
10:04 the vibe of this episode is nuts. Some ancient past, long forgotten.
10:09 With good reason. When I was a bit older than you are now,
10:19 I watched everything I knew burn. Couldn't make sense of it at the time.
10:23 Realize it's all inevitable.
10:27 Fought the Jedi, rise of the Empire. Chills.
10:35 And isn't it our turn now?
10:48 Won't our alliance with Thrawn finally bring us into power?
10:53 That sort of power is fleeting.
10:58 What I seek is the beginning. I have chills.
11:04 So I may finally bring this cycle to an end. What does that mean?
11:14 Okay, what is his motivation, guys? He knows something. What's going on here?
11:19 Oh. Nope. Oh.
11:29 It doesn't hurt. Yeah. Psych.
11:43 Creepy sounds.
11:44 Oh! What? Oh my gosh. It's Thrawn's ship from the end of Rebels, guys. Oh my gosh.
12:00 It's still working. Oh my gosh. Look at the other metal. It's like it was repaired with this other
12:11 metal. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Oh, this is chilling. This is spooky. It's so like ethereal and ghostly.
12:24 Oh! Wow!
12:27 Thrawn! We're on the Star Wars ride! Dude! Look at them!
12:36 What the heck? Oh! Enoch! His name is Enoch? Oh my gosh!
12:45 Night Troopers? Look at them! Night Troopers! They are so cool looking! Bro!
13:02 Night Sister Stormtroopers? What?
13:05 Oh my gosh! He looks so good!
13:27 Oh my! His voice! His mask! Yeah.
13:53 He's so good! He translates to live action so good! Oh, he's so smug!
14:01 That was great introduction. Oh my gosh. Dude, these troopers!
14:07 Oh my gosh. Thrawn.
14:12 He's so bad.
14:18 Oh! I'm gleaming. Gleaming? My cheeks hurt.
14:32 Oh!
14:35 Oh!
14:36 Oh!
14:55 Hmm.
14:58 Those are Lothwolves.
15:19 This Enoch character with his mask? What? What is that? I need his pop toy.
15:27 Oh! Wow!
15:33 Guys, Star Wars is on top right now. It is so on top. It's on top of it. This is so cool.
15:48 His theme! The organ? Yes! They're following her.
16:13 Of course. I love his face. I love his smug looking face. It translates so well.
16:22 He just, in animated, he just looks so stone cold. And in this, he looks so stone cold with a hint of
16:30 like, I'm better than you. It's so good. Oh! Here we go!
16:42 Oof! Too bad she doesn't have her helmet. Yeah, for real.
16:48 Oh yeah! Here we go!
16:54 Come on!
16:58 Find Ezra! Find Ezra!
17:09 Grand Admiral, the mercenaries have departed. Good. Prepare to attack squads. Wait for Lord
17:15 Baelin's signal. Should we not send more troops to support them?
17:19 During this exile, sir, no. Two squads will suffice.
17:28 I love that. I love it. He's like, what do you, what do you think you're doing?
17:35 It matters not whether Wren and Britch are killed or stranded here. The same can be said for your two
17:43 mercenaries. I like how they clarified how he was able to contact
17:46 uh, Morgan. And that is through Nightsister magic. Because there's still Nightsisters here.
17:53 You better not bail on me this time. Got it? Baelin me? Is it because it bucked her? Baelin?
18:02 Did it buck? Yes, you're funny. Man, who would have thought that we would have Anakin Skywalker,
18:07 Ahsoka, and Thrawn all in the same show? Could you believe it? I can't, I can't believe it.
18:16 It's a rock. No. You're embarrassing yourself. What? It's not a rock.
18:29 It's an animal. Oh, it's a bean. That feels so prequel-esque.
18:35 Even with the music. I'm not gonna hurt you.
18:39 So cute.
18:43 Just relax over there.
18:57 Oh, he recognizes the symbol. Yeah. You like this? Yeah. Whoa!
19:04 Where'd you get that? Ezra has bonds with animals. Yes. Do you know Ezra? I mean, I don't know if
19:13 this would be considered an animal. Right. But. No, no, this is a civilized- it's just that they
19:18 know Ezra. Yeah, they're little creatures. They're so cute. We must commune. They're
19:24 kind of like Ewoks. Yeah. Turtle Ewoks. You know what I mean? Like, this is kind of like medieval
19:30 fantasy-like genre. This whole show has been kind of diving into that, and these are kind of like
19:36 trolls. Like stone trolls, you know? Do you miss him? The Order.
19:53 I miss the idea of it. But not the truth. The weakness.
20:02 They seem eager to leave this place. Maybe we should too. Perhaps they flee a power
20:11 greater than their own. What power are you talking about? He knows something.
20:17 Something calls to me. Some ancient magic. Can't you hear it? Something stirs here.
20:25 This is very Star Wars-esque.
20:29 He is their leader. You think so? Yeah. He's like their tribe leader.
20:39 Oh wow. It's so cute. Oh my gosh. This is so pleasant. I feel like their entire civilization
20:53 is about to be destroyed. I know. Yeah, that's what's happening. It's gonna be horrible. That's
20:57 what's happening next episode. No. No. Baelin and Shin are gonna wreck shock with those bandits.
21:07 Yeah, they're spending way too much time making this nice and happy. It's gonna be horrible.
21:11 Just showing the pleasant lives of these tribal folk that are about to be decimated.
21:19 Ezra? What? What the heck? What? Oh my gosh.
21:32 What the heck? Bro. See, those are love eyes. See, they love each other. Yeah. I don't know.
21:42 She loves him. That's for sure. It sure took you long enough. Exactly. Tell any of us
21:49 where you were going. That's because I didn't know where I was going. Typical. He's old. Yeah.
21:57 He's bearded. It worked, didn't it? Not really because Thrawn's coming back.
22:03 It worked.
22:07 Wow. Dang. This reunion. Oh, with the rebels theme. Ezra's theme.
22:26 Wow. He said, "I knew I could count on you." Yeah.
22:30 We've waited for this day for so long. I know.
22:39 He's good. Yeah.
22:53 Yeah. This isn't a good story.
22:55 He just lives with them.
23:23 Oh, no. Yeah. This isn't good. This isn't good. About that. But he's good. I already feel like
23:32 it's Ezra. Yeah. Don't you? Yeah. I'm like, "That's Ezra." He's good. He's good. And that's
23:40 Thrawn. And this is happening. This is really happening. The threat of fate has spoken to us.
23:48 The threat of fate. Oh, no.
23:54 Smart.
24:12 He is his calculating self. Yeah. Oh, no. Her master.
24:19 With prejudice.
24:37 Yes. The threat of destiny demands it, Grand Admiral.
24:42 No.
24:51 Wow.
25:01 That was good, guys. That was good. That was good. Very good. That was very good. Okay. Okay.
25:11 Let's just take it in the order in which it appeared to us. Peridia and the Nightsisters
25:17 feel like the freaking Bene Gesserit from Dune. Like all of that. I was like,
25:26 yeah, it took me back to our Dune reaction. If you haven't watched it, go check it out.
25:31 Um, that like, I don't know. I feel like those vibes were so like on point. Yeah. And then
25:38 Balen. Okay. So this is the cool thing. This is what's really cool and what I was hoping that
25:42 we're doing. Balen's motivation is completely different from Thrawn's motivation. He's not
25:48 even seeking Thrawn. That's why he said, "I'm not starting a war, but Thrawn will."
25:56 Yeah. You know what I mean? That, his whole point, that, the whole point of that line when he's like,
26:01 you know, she's like, "Oh, you would bring Thrawn back and start another war and stuff."
26:06 And he's like, "That's not what I'm here for." Yeah. You know what I mean? So it's like,
26:12 now you've created some very interesting tension. Interesting tension in the plot.
26:18 His performance was good. Yeah. His, um, I liked the conversations between him and Shin.
26:25 Yeah. I thought those really added. Yeah. Good insight. And it was needed, like, yeah,
26:33 information into their characters. Right. And you, he really was convincing as a like jaded. Yeah.
26:40 Old, you know, Jedi who's like, you know, he was so disappointed by like what, what it all became.
26:50 And, and how did you want to put it on a brighter screen? Oh, it's fine.
26:57 And he, you know, he misses the idea of it and he wants to destroy the cycle.
27:06 He wants to stop the cycle of history. That's so inevitable because some ancient thing calls
27:14 to him here. Yeah. I don't know. What was that about? I don't know what's going on with that.
27:18 What again, like they're going to bring something in at the last second and it's going to be like a
27:22 wild card thing. Yeah. A wild card twist that is going to be like, because Balin surely is more
27:31 powerful than like Thrawn is underestimating Balin. I feel like at this point, because it's like,
27:39 he's not anticipating that Balin is going to swoop in with his own plans. You know what I mean? Yeah.
27:44 Yeah. So that's super interesting. The Shin and Balin stuff. And okay. I feel like the biggest
27:50 thing right now that's sticking out to me is Thrawn's introduction. Yeah. Thrawn's introduction.
27:57 That was sick. That was so on point. Like his ship comes in. The design of his whole, like,
28:08 the ship and all of the troopers with the gold metal, like kind of fused into everything. Like,
28:17 yeah, it's kind of been repaired with this like, yeah. Distant metal. Yeah. Kind of metal that they
28:24 found. And just that they were like, Thrawn, Thrawn, Thrawn. They were all like hardcore
28:29 and like beat up. Yeah. Like, like this is a cult of Thrawn. Yeah. This is Thrawn's cult.
28:35 And what's the whole thing about? Okay. So you guys are that guy named Enoch. What is that about?
28:39 The gold, golden face. Yeah. Like Enoch, like this ancient legendary figure of Enoch who was taken.
28:49 You know what I mean? So who is this character that is Enoch that was taken? You know what I
28:54 mean? And now turned or something. You know what I mean? Like, he's like so bad, you know, and like
28:59 his right hand man. Oh, man. So cool. So cool. And Ezra was great. Ezra was good. Like, he was
29:11 way more believable than I even thought. Yeah, I think that actor's presence on screen.
29:16 shined in like the 30 seconds that he was there. Yeah. When did you say felt true to the character?
29:26 It felt true to the character, but also like, he had a good charisma. I think on screen. He had
29:34 one of those Ezra Riz. I think him and Thrawn are two. Like I was surprised at his performance,
29:41 because he just showed up on screen and it was like you have a presence right now. You know
29:45 what I mean? The same thing that when Thrawn shows up, it's just like, just all eyes are on him. You
29:50 know what I mean? And same thing with Ezra. You're just like, Oh, okay. His voice was good. Yeah,
29:55 his voice was good. Yeah. Yeah. I'm excited to see more of him. I'm excited to see how he'll
30:01 contribute to the story. We only got to see like, yeah, barely any of Ahsoka in this episode. Yeah.
30:07 It's sad because Sabine's choice is kind of like tainting the joy and stuff. And he doesn't even
30:16 know that like, I mean, for real, though, she is almost reversing what he did. He saved Lethal in
30:25 that moment. Oh my gosh. You know what I mean? That's horrible. He saved Lethal in this in that
30:30 moment by shipping Thrawn off and then he's like, come but now it's like Thrawn's going to come back
30:36 bigger and badder than ever because now that there's a power vacuum. That's horrible. So now
30:41 and he made this great sacrifice. Yeah. But in saving him, she literally Yeah, she's literally
30:47 doing reversing that. I mean, I don't know what he expected when he said come find me.
30:52 That's something like that wouldn't happen. But I mean, I guess he just had no idea what was gonna
30:56 happen. I wonder where Thrawn has been and if he knows what Thrawn has been doing. Yeah. I don't
31:00 know. It looks like they were set. I know we need to find all this out. Like, oh my god. But it is
31:06 it is interesting that it's like his sacrifice. He's gonna be like, wow, I was stuck. I was only
31:11 delaying the inevitable, which is the return of Thrawn. And now all of this awfulness that might
31:17 happen because of Thrawn's return. You know, well, what's Balin gonna do?
31:21 What is he trying to? This keeps like tilting. The mercenaries and Balin are going to go attack
31:29 this caravan of like helpless things. Turtle guys, then there's going to be a confrontation between
31:36 Ezra and Balin and Shin. And they're gonna like, there's gonna be a battle about what Sabine did.
31:43 She's gonna try to avoid the topic. Yeah. And then when they're fighting,
31:47 yeah, it's gonna come out. And then Ezra is gonna be like, what did you do? Yeah. And then there's
31:53 gonna be a display of Ezra's. I mean, he's been here. How has he been developing the force?
31:57 There's gonna be a battle. And then that's when ultimately Ahsoka is going to come in and like,
32:02 stop it and be like, I'm all powerful now. I'm Ahsoka the White. And then there's gonna be and
32:08 then something and then something with Thrawn now is leaving the galaxy and then they all have to
32:13 scramble and now they're gonna all race back to the I don't know. I'm just guessing obviously.
32:18 But um, is Thrawn gonna make it back? Oh, yeah. I mean, this is what they're building to. So
32:24 here's the deal. I really hope that they continue milking this story before they do the movie.
32:32 That's just my opinion. Some people are like, Oh, they should just go straight into the movie
32:35 unless they were doing in trilogy based upon if they're doing a trilogy. If like, yes, let's move
32:40 this the theaters if you guys want. Sure. I just don't want it to like, culminate in one movie
32:46 after this. And then that's it. You know what I mean? I'm like, I really want to see an end
32:49 game level situation where like, I mean, seriously, the way that they're setting up Thrawn is the big
32:56 that how cool will it be when they bring dinjar in back in baby Yoda, Luke, they've got to bring
33:04 in Luke Skywalker. You see what I'm saying? Yeah, no, for real, though. I mean, in the original
33:10 Thrawn trilogy in the original books, it was Luke Han and Leia against Thrawn
33:15 in the original legends stories. So they have to do those justice and bring Luke Han and Leia
33:23 back into this story. Somehow in some way they have to play a part they do that with their D aging
33:31 stuff. And maybe where are they? I mean, maybe maybe out of respect, Leia makes a cameo with a
33:39 new actress, you know, out of respect to Carrie Fisher. But yeah, for Hamill and or they just
33:47 recast them all either way. They I mean, last time we saw Luke, he gave he sent baby Yoda back
33:53 to dinjar. But he's building his school, but he's building his school. Yeah. So I don't know,
34:00 I think that that would be a great way for us to see adventures of Han Le and who
34:04 lawn Han, Leia and Luke before the sequel trilogy to kind of have a whole story for them to as well
34:13 just have them involved somehow, you know, I don't know, kind of in the same way that Ahsoka
34:18 was involved in rebels, where she was like, a character that was in rebels and played an
34:24 important part, but she wasn't the main character. You know what I mean? So have them come in and
34:28 play a part. Anyway, just just my thought, but that would be interesting. Yeah, the vibes,
34:35 the vibes of this episode were dark. I'm feeling very iry. Shut up. That's an office reference.
34:43 For those who don't know. I mean, man, the this was I think the show has delivered. Like like we
34:54 said at the end of the last episode that it could have been the season finale. But now they're
34:58 delivering even more. Like remember, we had all this Clone Wars stuff, all this amazing this lap
35:02 last episode, and now this delivered again on the plot for this season itself. Like things are
