Obi Wan Kenobi - Season 1 Eps 5 Reaction

[@ladylothwen]

I think it's really just the sheer disrespect they have for Reva. They don't even see her as a player she was a tool and nothing more. In their arrogance they don't care if she lives or dies that's how little they regard her.

[@crackers9543]

[@cfinley81]

When Reva picked up the comm device, she heard 'do they know about the children', 'tattooine', and 'Owen'. She met Owen and already picked up he was hiding something and now she knows he was. She just connected the dots. So the ending is now showing Luke as he is now very much in danger. I think she will somehow patch herself up and head over there and try and kill Luke to get at Vader. Being that Vader doesn't find out about Luke until years later, I think Obi Wan will intercept and kill Reva to save Luke and Owen.

[@coadacatalin4510]

That sounds good, but I doubt they'll allow him to do anything as badass as winning a lightsaber fight.

[@DarthSherm94]

You said kill Luke to get at Vader… there’s no chance of that because like you said Vader knows nothing about Luke so how would get to Vader?

I think she will be pissed because Obi-Wan kind of used her anger to escape. She will go there to kill Luke, Owen and family Harvey Dent (from The Dark Knight) style. And maybe in this case Obi-Wan will succeed in bringing her to the lightside. And that is how he becomes the more optimistic Obi-Wan that we see in A New Hope.

Vader was snapping necks and killing failing inquisitors for a reason, to make a point to Kenobi and the remaining inquisitors. Leaving Reva in the gutter is almost an insult, like how he was toying with her when she was attacking him. She’s not a threat to him and is likely to die anyway.

My crazy theory - Vader didn't kill her outright in part because some part of him WANTS her to survive, because that would then prove she's a worthy acolyte and he sees that potential in her. I feel like a lot of Dark side mentoring basically involves a lot of mind games, murder attempts and negging and leaving people for dead and kind of 'hoping' they manage to survive and try to kill you, eventually, because that's how you know you've succeeded as a Sith teacher.

[@boubafett]

YES! Thank you! People often forget how manipulative and downright disrespectful the dark side can be!!!

[@justinrakestraw4142]

Vader didn’t kill her because Disney wants her to be the the main character. This show has sadly failed on such a simple story. All they had to do was show Obi-Wan being hunted by inquisitors and maybe him starting an Underground Railroad for Jedi. Maybe they push could have had Tala help him smuggle Jedi. Along the way maybe he discovers the grey side of the force and possibly realizes that the Jedi were wrong in some of their teachings. Mace Windu shows up in their hour of need along with Grogu to keep the boy safe but Grogu ends up being hurt and has amnesia from a blast and ends up in the wrong hands. I literally thought this story line up in seconds and it would have been far better than this crap we are watching. This show is giving us terrible character that I want to like but hate and even worse bad guys that annoy me rather than make me fear them. Watch The Boys and you’ll see amazing character development and truly scary bad guys that are complex. This is just a weak story and terrible characters. Boba Fett and Mando are far better than this and it saddens me.

[@aristogan]

@@justinrakestraw4142 Even though I actually like Reva I understand why others would dislike her. It is obvious her introduction has Kathleen Kennedy's fingerprints all over it, As you probably know from her point of view the force is female. It saddens me that this series is not what it could have been due to cramming in politics but I am still glad with what we got. If she gets her own series like Disney wants to maybe we can actually get a season 2 and have the story focus mostly on Obi-Wan and Vader like it should have been from the beginning.

[@dresdenwarlock7978]

I'm starting to become convinced that Ewan's "We hope you enjoy episodes 3, and 4, and 5, and 6... and 7, and 8, and 9, and 10" wasn't just him talking about a second season but was really telling us that there will be 4 more eps after this next one.

[@richardthecowardlylion5289]

Adam, I disagree. I 100% think Vader intentionally left her alive. He is a Sith master that just watched a massive power play and ambition from this person. She failed, and she was punished severely, but lets be honest, he respected her fight, her creativity, and her relentless pursuit of vengeance. This is the Sith my dude, they respect power and passion. They EXPECT their padawan's to try to surplant them, that's how you get promoted. All those people he was killing were nobodies in his eyes. Those Jedi younglings were soft, but he hesitated with her and made it a non-critical strike. Sith version of recruitment. You survive, we'll make you stronger. You don't, you weren't worthy.

[@evanskan6326]

I liked Reva, now I like her even more (and Moses did a great job here). This is what I've been telling to friends about her. Wait till the series end before you get disappointed or annoyed. The same thing goes for the issue with Leia (she didn't know Obi-Wan in A New Hope). We might get to see Obi-wan altering her memories somehow.

[@fedr39]

Actually, Leia did know Obi-Wan before and during A New Hope. R2D2 message and transmission "help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope." Luke telling her in the DeathStar that he's come to save her with Ben Kenobi. Doh!!

@@fedr39 Yes but if you remember correctly, when she records her message for Obi-wan she says "you fought with my father in the Clone Wars etc". She is talking to someone she doesn't know in person.

Anakin having no problem killing kids right out the gate was already established in Episode II when he told Padme he slaughtered the sand people, especially the women and children, like animals. That's why it always bugs me that Padme was oh-so-shocked he killed younglings.

[@Otakahunt]

Thats because she loves him... and the sand people pretty much killed his mother, so you can understand his anger about it. But the younglings? they did literally nothing to Anakin nor his mother... so thats a bigger surprise. And i dont think Padme nor anyone in particular thinks highly of the tusken, they are mostly seen as barbarians anyway... almost noone gets to survive an encounter with them.

There’s big difference: the Tusken people meant nothing to him and represented an evil to him. The younglings were Jedi apprentices like he once was. They were part of his team. He knew them. He taught them. It’s a different type of situation, it’s a betrayal.

[@GhostInPajamas]

You guys are great. Just wanna say Adam, you’re right I don’t think the “real” Anakin would kill younglings, but falling to the dark side is like being corrupted, or possessed. You do things you never could have before. He strangled padme, the one person he was trying to protect, there’s no pragmatism or logic there, he’s not in control. He nearly kills Ahsoka in rebels, and for a moment Anakin snaps out of it and considers everything, but I think his hatred and trauma cause him to turn back to Vader. It’s like an escape. Vader himself sees Anakin as a different person, and calls him weak. That’s how I’ve always seen it.

Reva putting the saber in wasn’t random, as magneto says, in chess the pawns go first.

[@Fishmorph]

Of course Vader left Reva alive. This was Episode 5, the mirror of "The Empire Strikes Back." A young and brash Force user tries to take on Vader and is horribly overmatched. Vader toys with the attacker, deals her a serious injury, and leaves her alive. This is also the episode where a ship tries to take off while Vader is laying siege to a base. This means that the next episode is going to have Reva return all confident and stuff, like Luke in Episode VI, and we'll probably see Reva turn to the Light Side (as Luke turned Vader).

Why does Anakin killing kids not make sense? (Yes, I know how that question sounded). Obviously, it wasn't only younglings he was after, he took out plenty of Knights during that assault as well. Younglings, despite how sad and disturbing it is, are the future of the Jedi. They weren't safe from the Emperor's order to wipe out the Jedi.

[@moradiehot]

If it was a master plan all along, then he leaving her alive must be part of the plan too i think. And if it feels like the last episode cannot answer all the questions we have, then mabye they have plans for more seasons😃 i feel like wasting the biggest villan in history on a one off disney + series is so stupid. What even if they make a new star wars movie with the ending, that would be cool.

[@boricuajoe]

Could Vader have left Reva alive (knowingly) to track her because he knew she will continue to seek out Obi-Wan and right now he has no idea where to look?

[@jacobburns115]

Last year it was Andrew Garfield. This time it’s Hayden. It’s a great time for great actors to redeem roles that weren’t always beloved.

[@17caratmonster14]

it's actually not a weird place to end though. reva wanted to know if owen was hiding something and he said nothing. now she knows that he is hiding a legitimate son of anakin

[@LordSplittawig]

"Anakin killing younglings didn't make sense to me." Thank you. I agree... It never showed Anakin "othering" the Jedi and their trainees enough to justify his actions at that moment. The only thing that comes close is the slaughter of the Tuskens in the attempt to save his mother, but even then, there was the clear and obvious motivation of vengeance for his mom. Contrarily, there's nothing of any similar "real substance" there in the slaughtering of the Padawans. The "why" of it has never been fully satisfied for me, personally. I know the "why" of it from the emperor's perspective - the elimination of the Jedi is the goal - but Anakin's turn was too sharp, and too unexplained for me. Did he want to save his wife so badly that he listened to an old, corrupt politician when he was told to slaughter innocent children at a Temple of Peace?

[@WilliamBowles]

Maybe the Padawan rat tail was intentionally terrible to teach padawans about humility? Because there's really no other excuse for it lol

[@franticrage73]

Another solid ep. I hate when people say “why didn’t they use that earlier?” Because you have to let things play out story wise even if the simplest answer is the right one. And if Jay is gonna continue drinking on the show, why not use reuseable straws? Better for the environment. Maybe put a drink in a cup.

[@oediaxl]

I kind of feel like she could live thru the series and pop up on the mandalorian or Ahsoka’s show as a more mature and veteran hunter of empire bad guys, such as blue admirals.

[@TheOnlyHawkeye666]

I'm so pumped that we have full power Vader!!!!!!! HE PULLED DOWN A STARSHIP AND TORE IT APART!!!!!! God I love him at this stage, I need more age of the empire Vader in live action in my life....also big hell yeah for Obi-wan return to General Kenobi!

[@devonskinner409]

There might be something to be said about Vader not feeling like Reva was enough of a threat to warrant killing her. To a Sith, I guess it could be seen as disrespectful in a twisted way.

[@LeadStarDude]

If Vader let her live then he is tracking her. Maybe he believes that she will now seek out the path for herself which will lead Vader to Obi Wan. 🤷‍♂️

[@crankfastle8138]

Apparently not. Her surviving was just bad writing and a dumb mistake.

[@LeadStarDude]

@@crankfastle8138 yeah after seeing the last episode that idea is out the window. I truly believed the only reason to let her live is to track her. Without tracking her Vader letting her live was definitely just bad writing.

[@freebrook]

Anakin was sent to kill the younglings because the experience of doing so helped develop his evilness.

[@01calvin02]

Was so looking forward to your reaction and was utterly disappointed by it..oh well

[@5TailFox]

If you survive an encounter with Darth Vader, it's because he *wanted* you to.

[@calebbonebrake6486]

Jay with hot takes about the Padawan Braid!!!

[@TeznasGV]

Hey, uh, Jay. What shirt is that? It's really cool.

[@pReviewd]

It’s our ‘All Hail the Oxford Comma’ shirt. You can find it on our merch store which should have a images just under the description box. Or the link is in the description box as well 😁 I recommend the tri-blend, it’s very soft 😎

[@TeznasGV]

@@pReviewd lemme just head on over there and take a look around

[@rubaiyat300]

That Vader fight had some classic kung fu movie vibes with the old Master just casually dodging and blocking everything the young hothead throws and then just tossing them on their ass with a simple palm. Loved it.

[@damagecontrol7]

the dual lightsaber being back together seems like a continuity error.

[@djcowell91]

The woman playing Tala was also voicing Lady Allura in Legend of Vox Machina, so it was nice to finally see her cast a fireball. :-)

[@writingref]

The point a lot of people are missing is Vader PROMOTES Reva, KNOWING the OG Grand Inquisitor is still alive. This means - Vader is already playing the two of them against each other - Vader already expects Reva to betray him. Why not just kill her? - Vader kills you if you fail him. NOT if you act like a true Sith should. - A Sith wants their apprentice to both want to kill and take their place, but also to feel like they are not powerful enough to do so. - Vader dominates Reva and punishes her, but does not kill her because if she can prove herself worthy, then she might be an apprentice candidate to help him take on the emperor. - This is the same thing Dooku was doing with Assaj Ventress and Savage Opresss Come on Star Wars fans - we understand how the sith work, correct?

[@unbowedqueen]

Apparently not lol bc everyone needs everything spoon fed to them.

[@Vipre-]

Leaving Reva alive was the ultimate disrespect by Vader. He sees her as such a non-threat that even the minimal effort to finish her isn't worth it.

[@мур-с6м]

👏👏👏👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥

[@themetalchica]

Maybe Vader, nice and warm and crispy in his walking iron lung, should remember the will of one near death. The Grand Inquisitor himself said the same upon his entrance, which makes leaving Reva there alive even more asinine than it would be in any other circumstance: You've got 2 Force sensitive dudes who've both been left for dead and miraculously survived, one of whom only half-murdered the woman--for a SECOND TIME in her life--then left her just as they were left: not dead and pissed off. C'mon, now, y'all. That was the only scene that took me right outta the episode. *Initial response: Look, I fricking lost my shit in the best possible way at this episode. It was a dream. EXCEPT... Dude. DUDE. If anyone knows not to leave a not-dead, only a little bit dead, "I'm not *quite* dead!" victim behind, it is you Mr. Vader. Just...really, now, Lord Commodore 64 Bacon Bits, let's have a tiny element of reality, here. Oh, and why they ever had Tala even attempt to take a swing at a Stormtrooper with an open palm--two episodes in a row--is beyond me and the binary suns. It just looks silly. Everything else? Chef Boyardee MWAH!

[@kewnst]

the best thing to come out of this series was this episode and heres why. IT gives weight to obiwans sacrafice in a new hope. why? because it shows jsut how obessive darthvader has become. it shows he will do anything and everything to hunt obiwan down . so fast forward to a new hope. when we see a haggard old obiwan who knows he'd never stand a chance vs vader. KNOWS he will hunt obiwan down in any way possible. sees luke boarding the falcon. knowingly makes the choice not to join them because joining them would mean luke would be found by vader knowing vader wouldnt give a crap about in vaders mind the crappy ship obiwan hired. obiwan sacrafices himself. thus keeping luke safe.

[@hschwartz9277]

I would imagine Reva places some importance on "the kids" to the Organas (and thus Obi-Wan) but I can't see how she would link the kids with Vader. Vader doesn't know even about the kids. She probably just thinks the kid Owen is watching is yet another royal kid of the Organas like Leia.

[@lpycb42]

No, she knows Owen is hiding a Jedi, for sure. Not Obi Wan. She’s going to assume the kid is a Jedi.

[@jazkitt6512]

Ok. You guys need to Trademark your little Kanobi musical intro because i love it so much I'm a record it and slap it as my ringtone so when im out in public and my phone goes off I'm a LAUGH my ass off. I picture myself standing in a supermarket line😂😂😂😂😂

[@keishacancel5012]

This episode gave me so much liiiiife!!! 🤩🤩🤩

[@ncard00]

Kenobi, Reva ep 6 death changed cause of season 2!!!

[@derelictCHEESEBURGER]

Vader would have either beheaded Reva or let the Grand inquisitor do it. Pure BS tbh… all so she can have more story when really we don’t care. We want Obi & Vader! Commander Cody would have been cool too especially with Temu doing live action stuff again…
