SKELETON CREW: WHO was SM-33's CAPTAIN?

I don’t know… the interaction between Jod and the kids in the cockpit right when the autopilot kicks is a very funny and interesting scene. I think Jod IS just a big lost kid.

[@bomafett]

What if At Attin is peaceful because Neel's species is naturally peaceful. And since one of Neel's people was in charge, they stayed peaceful while the others deteriorated into warfare.

Fern pretends to be a bad ass, but in this episode, she meets a real bad ass in Heyna. Yet even Heyna does some performative stuff to show off how bad ass she is, like her slide in the bus and her cartwheel when she leaves them to go into the supervisors tower. So, I wonder how real their conflict with the Hattan really is.

[@MattChristensen9]

The Supervisor Tower is a communication tower. Their purpose is to relay between the other planets and a centralized hub, most likely off world from any of the nine. There is probably no one in the tower on At Attin.

[@STS-qi1qy]

The degree of age in the ship really doesn't feel like the Captain (unless a droid) would be any character we've met so far. Maybe an ancestor of one.

[@jasminevictor3486]

I loved that Neel was centered in this episode! So many "aww" moments. I enjoyed it.

[@patrickhding]

The gun Jod tried firing at SM-33 malfunctions, implying Strix gave the kids a faulty weapon for the fight against the Hattans. I'm guessing done either as a protective measure in case they turn on the Troiks or in an Uriah-type sacrificial situation.

[@Silveralways1]

Maybe the stranger to the right in the mural with his back showing is a representation of the captain.

[@sarahp5880]

Jude Law is 51. Presumably his character is too. That puts him around the same age as Grogu and Anakin. H could have been a knight.

It would be interesting if the planets were used as experiments like the fallout shelters are used in the Fallout series.

If only a few Jedi survived the purge, they wouldn't have needed Inquisitors. It had to be enough survivors to justify the creation of the Inquisitorious.

[@salmanfarruz]

Even if 99% of the Jedi in the whole galaxy were killed... we are left with 100 Jedi. The known surviving Jedi are not even 25. So these people like Erik Voss don't know what they're talking about

[@littlebabypizza5412]

What if Whim's mom is the captain and Fern, a girl, claiming the captain title is foreshadowing? That's why Whim's dad looked like he knew more than he was letting on.

[@julienleischke]

[@mdjechazabal1]

I find it interesting that SM33 recognized the "warriors" of that planet . If we are theorizing that his captain was the one to have decimated the "utopian" society that it once was, the crew shouldn't really have encountered any type of army. Unless, of course, this planet was where the army of the "jewels" were housed, and that was this planet 's "treasure". It would explain where all those old weapons that were being used came from.

[@its-siilvy]

As pure and lovable as Neel is, with his species having that statue and featuring at the front of the group holding a scepter, there’s definitely something nefarious (or at least sus) going on Since his kind love their baths, and there’s been no sign of similar bathing areas on the ship so far, it’s more likely Neel’s species has something to do with the Supervisor

[@matthewwest6039]

Yeah I’m calling that it’s Fern’s mom, simply bc she’s a somewhat known actor (Better call Saul). But I am hoping that the real cap is long gone and that the the ship crashed on At Attan decades ago.

[@MyUnsecretIdentity]

I don't think Hondo onaka is the supervisor or anything but he's the one SW known character i wouldn't mind showing up in this show. He totally fits the theme and i miss that dude, lol

[@susanshinkai4787]

Maybe Neel’s race promoted peaceful growth instead of conflict and that’s why At Attan has survived?

[@ChuckyPjr]

I'm calling it now... The little rats are the supervisor. I think it's odd that whenever 33 changes his tone or mood the rat pops up. They're really leaning into the connection between the rat and 33. It would be so wild of a twist but given that it's a kids show I can totally see the twist being that goofy.

[@saraholson5946]

Totally wild theory, but what if Snowball the Rat is the Captain? Do we know for certain it isn't a higher form of intelligence?

[@LilithEveRain]

I wonder if the "Hattan" got their name after the Hatfields, from *Hatfield-McCoy Feud.* They were two families from West Virginia who had a feud that lasted generations.

[@michaelahallfilms5450]

[@MaverickJones]

The captain destroying the planets makes no sense because SM33 remembers the warriors when he got to At Achron before, so the tribal/gang war on the planet must have been happening BEFORE they got there, which means that the society had already been destroyed before they arrived.

[@Weap0nsgradePine4pple]

I think they're actually at war on the outside of that shield on At Attin which is why the shield exists, but externally it looks like the planet they were just on. Which could mean that they might find another shielded several hundred acres on At Acrin.

Wondering if this is a death gate cycle type deal. If you haven't read them, I highly recommend them. The premise is that all the words are supposed to work together, but an unseen issue caused the plan to go wonky, and all the world's except 1 got plunged into chaos.

[@Jazz41173]

What exactly did they say happened to Wem's mother. Could she be The Captain?

I think the cinder crashing on at attain is pretty old.... 40 years at least... The bones were really decayed

[@TheChiptide]

I had a thought that perhaps some original Captain Silvo was SM-33's old captain. It doesn't make sense for it to be Jod, he really seems like he's never met SM-33 and doesn't know what's really on At-Attin, but maybe there was some old notorious pirate named Captain Silvo who discovered At-Attin and never came back, and Job just took up the mantle for the clout. We do know that Jod likes to take the name of other pirates like he did with Kh'ymm, but admittedly there's not much more evidence than that, and I don't know how it would work from a timeline perspective. It seems like the Onyx Cinder was crashed there for a pretty long time. He's just the only other captain we really know of yet.

[@ronaldsarette9360]

Many of these theories are tough to prove unless the kids see another of the planets... then you may be able to come to the conclusion that most people seem to have. The million dollar question.... are all the other planets apocalyptic?

[@stevebreedlove9760]

I think so. I think they may go to another. Why not? They all seem to be the same. To know their planet they can learn from the others.

[@Klaital1]

So do you think there is a turbo laser on the roof of the kids school on At-Attin also? If all the planets were built as copies of each other?

[@MrLapras311]

45:00min - I think Jod is not a Jedi Survivor of Order 66, he maybe was just a Padawan for some limited time and quit the Jedi Order because he got too greedy with stories of pirates and hidden treasures. As we know the Jedi Order aims for detachment of the material stuff and so maybe he was expelled and was not even present in the Temple on the night of the Purge

[@albertbutler4364]

Maybe the other of the nine worlds are pieces of eight?

[@noppornwongrassamee8941]

I think people are overthinking At Achron. The simplest explanation is that At Achron was like At Attin, except At Achron was attacked and looted, and the current day clans are descended from the survivors who fought over what little was left after the original attackers took everything of value and left. The feuding became tradition as generations passed. And that if people of malign intentions learn where At Attin is before At Attin can get some kind of defense other than the Barrier, then At Attin could very easily be turned into a world like At Achron. Also, I don't think Captain Tak became the Supervisor. Tak was a pirate, and he would have run At Attin like a pirate if he really did take over, not like a Big Brother government.
