00:00:00.552 --> 00:00:03.135
(gentle music)

2
00:00:08.460 --> 00:00:10.410
- [Narrator] This episode
puts so many of our heroes

3
00:00:10.410 --> 00:00:11.243
through the ringer.

4
00:00:11.243 --> 00:00:12.960
Between Bix being tortured,

5
00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:14.820
Mon getting the pressured to act out more,

6
00:00:14.820 --> 00:00:17.130
and Andor resisting the routine of prison,

7
00:00:17.130 --> 00:00:18.267
we're stressed out.

8
00:00:18.267 --> 00:00:19.100
(dark music)

9
00:00:19.100 --> 00:00:20.343
- You're ISB, aren't you?

10
00:00:21.900 --> 00:00:23.043
Worst of the worst.

11
00:00:24.090 --> 00:00:25.770
- [Narrator] Despite Dedra's taunts,

12
00:00:25.770 --> 00:00:27.480
Bix gets in some fighting words,

13
00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:29.460
like calling her "the worst of the worst,"

14
00:00:29.460 --> 00:00:31.320
and knowing it doesn't
matter what she says,

15
00:00:31.320 --> 00:00:33.530
she knows Meero wants to get to the pain.

16
00:00:33.530 --> 00:00:34.410
(dark music)

17
00:00:34.410 --> 00:00:36.153
- You're in my net, Bix.

18
00:00:38.155 --> 00:00:40.440
Are you a fish or are you a thief?

19
00:00:40.440 --> 00:00:41.579
Hm?

20
00:00:41.579 --> 00:00:44.162
(gentle music)

21
00:00:46.470 --> 00:00:47.910
- [Narrator] Truly, the Kris Jenner

22
00:00:47.910 --> 00:00:49.170
of the "Star Wars" universe,

23
00:00:49.170 --> 00:00:51.300
and I wish there were more
kids for her to boss around

24
00:00:51.300 --> 00:00:54.090
because the sheer cruelty
in which she regards her son

25
00:00:54.090 --> 00:00:57.840
is too iconic to end once
Syril presumably dies.

26
00:00:57.840 --> 00:00:59.880
That is if he doesn't
go off and marry Dedra

27
00:00:59.880 --> 00:01:02.280
and eventually father
someone like General Hux.

28
00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:04.650
Here we get the most scathing
quote in this episode.

29
00:01:04.650 --> 00:01:05.520
Eedy calls Syril.

30
00:01:05.520 --> 00:01:09.150
- The shadow of a son,
a tenant, a stranger.

31
00:01:09.150 --> 00:01:10.650
- That's new, you wanna remember that.

32
00:01:10.650 --> 00:01:11.483
- [Narrator] With a deepness

33
00:01:11.483 --> 00:01:13.080
that cuts through right
through the screen,

34
00:01:13.080 --> 00:01:15.630
always in awe of the way Kathryn
Hunter delivers her lines

35
00:01:15.630 --> 00:01:17.566
because we all felt that.

36
00:01:17.566 --> 00:01:20.149
(gentle music)

37
00:01:22.050 --> 00:01:24.750
The prison scenes really all
felt the same until the end.

38
00:01:24.750 --> 00:01:26.190
Maybe it's to drill in the fact

39
00:01:26.190 --> 00:01:28.830
that this is an all too
real day to day system

40
00:01:28.830 --> 00:01:31.110
where bodies are treated
like cogs in a machine

41
00:01:31.110 --> 00:01:33.510
and as expendable parts to
replace with more bodies.

42
00:01:33.510 --> 00:01:34.942
So intense.

43
00:01:34.942 --> 00:01:37.525
(gentle music)

44
00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:40.650
Necessary?

45
00:01:40.650 --> 00:01:43.140
Maybe, but the torture inflicted on Bix

46
00:01:43.140 --> 00:01:45.360
with the details about the
genocide that took place

47
00:01:45.360 --> 00:01:48.030
to acquire the sonic shared pain of death

48
00:01:48.030 --> 00:01:49.590
were truly disturbing.

49
00:01:49.590 --> 00:01:51.420
And all the while a character like Vel

50
00:01:51.420 --> 00:01:55.080
can hang up her rebellion
garb to just live, laugh,

51
00:01:55.080 --> 00:01:58.312
and be a rich girl while others
can't afford that luxury.

52
00:01:58.312 --> 00:02:01.411
- How many guards on each level?

53
00:02:01.411 --> 00:02:02.812
- Never more than 12.
