This is my first watch, but it’s probably up there with my favorite episodes of Back Issues already. There’s just a little bit of extra magic to this one, when Ben and Ethan were as invested as Sal was in their own ways, and it’s the quintessential common ground of nerddom that is Star Wars.

What is with Tattooine being such a hot spot for intergalactic visitors? I know a lot of people pivotal to the plot go there, but why? There's almost nothing there. Just two suns and sand. And all that sand, man. I don't like it. It's coarse, and rough, and irritating, and it gets everywhere.

+Batfreeze Vader. Dude looks like a badass and walks around like a badass. Fought Luke on Bespin with one hand without even trying. Walks everywhere because running is for underlings. Alters the deal whenever he wants because that's what badasses do. Also a decisive leader who replaces under-performing minions without hesitation.
