14:45 There's actually a reason for that. Jedi categorized ways a lightsaber could be used against an opponent as escalating "marks of contact." Starting with "sun djem", which is disarming the opponent of their weapon without actually harming them, followed by "shiim" a cut with the edge of the blade (what we see Kenobi doing here), followed by "cho mai" cutting off an opponent's weapon hand (like Vader did against Luke), followed by "cho sun", which was cutting off their whole weapon arm (Old Ben against Ponda Baba in Mos Eisley Cantina), followed by "cho mok", which was an otherwise unspecified amputation of a limb, followed by "shiak", which was stabbing an opponent (like Reva did to the Grand Inquisitor, or Maul to Qui-Gon), followed by "sai cha", which was decapitation, followed by "sai tok" which was cutting an opponent in half (like Obi-Wan did to Maul), followed by "mou kei", which was complete dismemberment (like Obi-Wan did to Vader on Mustafar). Mou kei was considered to be so brutal and savage and uncivilized that it was reserved only for the absolute extreme last resort against a dangerous enemy. See, Jedi respected a certain hierarchy of what was considered acceptable expression of violence and levels of harm. You'll see them use sai tok and sai cha with abandon against droids in the prequels, but that's considered to be uncivilized savagery against living beings, unless there's no other choice. So, you'll see them go for cho mai or cho sun, which neutralizes a threat, and in a galaxy with such easy access to advanced cybernetics, is seen as a less "permanent" injury. Part of the reason blasters were considered "uncivilized" is because it lacked the capability of nuance/selection of degree of injury. You'll never see a Jedi wantonly slaughter living beings with sai tok and worse unless they're already falling to the dark side. We only see Kenobi use sai tok against Maul and mou kei against Vader because in both cases he was slightly to moderately outclassed by each opponent, and he couldn't afford to pull any punches if he wanted to survive. So, Kenobi using shiim against these stormtroopers is perfectly in line with the lore.

I read Leia not playing mini psychoanalyst on Reva as a mixture of her concentrating on not giving up any information and trying not to show fear. It's also possible she wasn't gonna telegraph that particular skill of hers because she was definitely playing to her age. It's only when she pulls the "I need to tell my father, that's okay because we're on the same side, right?" does Reva get that Leia is a lot more savvy than most 10 year olds.

I took a carcass of a R2 unit, had pedals and levers inside, voiced "beep boop" in Ewok voice to pretend to be a R2 unit and get inside the base. .... ... .... and after much sweating and a battle with a real, black evil R2 unit, it worked! I ditched the R2 disguise, got into the ventilation system, and ultimately found the detention area and freed them. We blasted our way out of the base. Victory!

[@blackbenetavo7715]

The thing is, in the Empire, once an officer reaches a certain level, they're dealing with people who will indiscriminately slaughter them on the slightest excuse. That's an officer culture that percolates downward. You either learn quickly that you don't f--- with your superiors, or you're going to have a short and bloody career.

I’m not yet convinced that all those people were dead. If they wanted to keep them for cloning or something similar, they didn’t have to keep the whole bodies. I think it’s possible that they’re all Force-sensitive people that they are keeping in suspended animation. Something akin to what they did with Han, only using a different substance. Maybe that’s why Vader was sure Han’s freezing process would work. Well, we’ll see. I agree that this was, perhaps, the weakest episode as well as being the shortest, but they always do that with the middle episode. I agree about Reva. They haven’t shown enough, at this point, for her rage to be earned, in a narrative sense. We think she’s a padwan who was turned and feels abandoned but that hasn’t been officially confirmed. For me, each of these series has some little weaknesses, with “The Mandalorian” being the strongest of all, in terms of all-around excellence. So, Reva doesn’t really bother me. The underlying story of Ben and Leia is great and that is really all I care about. And, I have a feeling that Reva will reveal her story by the end. Or, it will be revealed.

[@jamesfoster9613]

The padawan in...amber? Was credited by the same child actor from the opening scene of the first episode. So...I think that's confirmation that Reva was one of the younglings and they got caught, she defected. Also the very first master Kenobi sees is very similar to one from Clone Wars that helps Ahsoka find her missing lightsaber, one who was a friend of Yoda and also taught younglings. And those troopers in black are purge troopers I think, as seen in Fallen Order.

[@Jaaol1]

If Leia had pulled a Rey and read Reva's mind instead, she'd be dead. It'd be too obvious that she's force sensitive. The way it was now, she could just be strong-willed

Ben pulled an Ahsoka with him killing those storm troopers in the dark. I thought that scene was about to get real dark in another way. I just wish it was a little longer. Also the Obi Wan thing isn’t a huge deal for me. Maybe she forgot or maybe he or her father warned her to only call him Ben after all this happened.

I agree, Jay. The actor/actress, director, and screen/scriptwriter make the movie. Bad actor? Director’s fault. Bad direction? Director’s fault. Bad storyline, script? Screen/Scriptwriter fault. Bad production release? Allowing crap to make it the the screen? Producers fault. Thanks, Kathleen. It’s the same, for example, with the current Doctor Who series. It’s not not Jodi’s fault, it’s the production’s fault. And it’s been the same problem in a lot of shows and movies for the last 80 years. But it’s how you and Adam made a living. And thank you for that. I’ve always loved your humor and observations over the years.

[@BeautyMonster1000]

I agree that it's frustrating that Reva's story hasn't been revealed yet. It's not like they have lots of time to reveal it. That's disappointing. I loved seeing Vader get furious with her though, that was satisfying considering I feel it's what she deserves for the way she chooses to act, even if there is a reason behind her behavior, which I'm sure there is. If you're pissing off Darth Vader, you're doing something wrong, for sure. She has to get it together but I don't know if that will happen within two more episodes, honestly, I doubt it. I love Obi-Wan and Leia's connection, it's so sweet. That moment when she grabbed his hand was so cute. Side note, I'm pretty sure that Kylo's helmet is featured in the helmet intro. At least I'm pretty sure that I've seen it but maybe I'm wrong. Anyways, I'm excited to see where the story goes next.

[@bloodyneptune]

Yeah, I was saying in another comment that it felt like she was actually conflicted about what she was about to do to Leia, but its probably what she went through. Admitting its wrong would be admitting everything she became because of it is wrong. It felt subtle enough to work if the series was longer and they had time to develop that. I'd like to see that, actually. Its make sense as to why she's so intense and determined, she's overcompensating and trying to force herself to be what she's trying to convince herself she is, to cope with what's been done to her. And then slowly having her accept everything and ending with some grand self sacrifice to save someone. But like you said, there's just not enough _time_ left, unless there's a season 2 or a straight up Inquisitor series in the works

[@mr.stuffdoer8483]

Inquisitors are the characters you make when you want a villain who can die in the story you’re telling, so I’m not surprised if next episode features her backstory. I’m curious to see who’ll kill her though.

[@yw9372]

Yeah, I can’t help but compare her to Trilla--and she didn’t even get that many lines! You know you messed up when a video game villain did better characterization than you.

[@alloztome]

Reva was the Youngling in the temple who said "we run". She was captured and tortured into compliance. She waited for the Jedi to come and rescue her, but they never did. The Inquisitors told her the same things she said to the people on Tatoonie, about how the Jedi abandoned them, how they didn't car and they wouldn't help if they were there. She blames Obi Wan, as she told Leia, you brought this on yourself, no one is coming to save you.

[@moabman6803]

The problem is, she is in a show that's got Vader, Kenobi, and Leia. They are trying to force me to get into this new Reva character by giving her lots of screen time. It's not working. I don't care about Reva. Make her more of a side character like Tala. Tala has less screen time, they aren't forcing me to focus on her, and yet I'm intrigued by her story enough i hope to see more of her.

[@ML_Vanilla]

What I really enjoy about this series so far is how incredibly poetic it is, so many shots are direct parallels to other movies, the cinematography is done so well, this entire thing is a love letter to the two Lucas trilogies. Also, have you noticed how each episode represents the correspondent movie? Like, the first episode is largely set on Tatooine, in the lower-class economy of slaves and laborers, where much of The Phantom Menace took place and it's about someone who lived a monotone life there for 10 years leaving for an important mission. In the second episode, the mood and atmosphere of the place strongly resembles the bustling metropolis of Attack of the Clones' early sequences, where Obi-Wan chases an assassin. In AOTC, the villains hire a bounty hunter to kill Padme; in Kenobi, the Sith send bounty hunters after Padme’s daughter. (Also, in the Kenobi episode correspondent to Attack of the Cloney, we actually got to see a clone). Both ROTS and “Part III” climax with a lightsaber duel between Obi-Wan and Anakin/Vader. In ROTS, Obi-Wan is victorious and Anakin is horrifically burned, leading to his transformation into Vader. In Kenobi, Vader wins and Kenobi gets burned. BUT BOTH TIMES, the burned person is left alive to suffer even more. A New Hope’s central story involves a rescue mission to retrieve Princess Leia from the Death Star. Obi-Wan’s “Part IV” has a different location - the Inquisitor’s fortress - but the same basic plot, with Obi-Wan undertaking an incredibly dangerous quest to save Leia from the Sith. As in A New Hope, one of the heroes even has to disguise themselves as a member of the Empire, with Tala using her Imperial uniform to sneak around the base undetected Also, the quote "This is not a fortress, it's a tomb" might be a parallel to "this is not a moon, it's a space ship" and Leia in And at the end of ANH, Vader let's them escape on purpose, because there's a tracker on their ship - same thing happened here.

Agreed, Jay, it is frustrating that we have had zero character expansion for Reva. I will say though, Moses Ingram is doing a great job. I compare her to Zelena from Once Upon a Time. She is so good at being the worst that you can't help hating her every step of the way.

[@Neurodivergent-j1f]

That’s for sure.

Frankly I dont see why a villain cant just be evil for evil's sake. In A New Hope there wasnt any nuance to Darth Vader. He was the epitome of evil and people didnt care "why".

[@TinobiSan]

We were promised Anakin as Vader and we got 95% Reva, 5% Hayden, although they used him for all the promo campaign, to draw in fans. I feel cheated, and it's pissing me off.

Don't worry Jay I got your Footloose reference and appreciated it.

Ches-A-Rena was the name of my local skating rink.

Obi-Wan saw some troopers in that hallway. One might even say he scoped them out. I'll see my way out.

21:20 I actually appreciate a show that doesn't feel the need to hand-hold me through explaining a character. The unspoken implications of her likely backstory (Jedi youngling) are enough to provide us with a rich context for interpreting her actions and behavior. And that's interesting enough for 2/3's of the way through the series. This isn't the Reva series. We can't spend that much time exploring her. Plus, there's still a hell of a double standard at work here. Look at Darth Maul. How much character backstory or motivation work did we get for him in Episode I? "Finally we'll have our revenge." That's it. That's literally all the motivation work we got. And no one complained about how not knowing every facet of his backstory and motivation made him an uninteresting character.

[@NoiresTots]

Maul also wasn't annoying as fuck and had constant scenes where his "acting" was super dog shit.

@@NoiresTots Well, you're obviously one of the actress-haters that isn't welcome here.
