Well, the M113 family is among the most reliable engines Mercedes-Benz has ever built, and the 5G-Tronic is solid, too. No need to do that. Electronics and sensors (or that top) are what will kill this thing, if anything. Still, it’s a relatively cheap car to fix.

At the price, you’re buying something to last through the winter and this might just be it. If it gets to May and still works then that is a bonus. NP.

Close inspection of tires and battery date and oil leaks and coolant leaks. How bad is it on the test drive. Fistfull of cash cash and an offer of $2,500.

May we all find us a partner that loves us as much as Syril loves his Fascist Mommy Meero

People like him are what made the real life Nazis possible. True for the fictional Empire too. Anything to be accepted by those in charge.

it also came across to me as a bit of interpersonal power play for Mon - she’s using emotional leverage to get him on board with a possible arranged marriage for their daughter with a gangster’s son

It left me wanting more, so that’s good.

Think his wry smile showed he's all in on Cassian

Love it. And I shouldn’t be ageist. Even if it’s too much for my five year old, I’m all for exposing kids to stuff that’s just a bit above their level. Stuff they can grow into. My appreciation of The Godfather was pretty superficial when I saw it at 12, but you follow those threads and appreciate the art more for…

The absolute mad lads and laddesses, they stuck the landing.

Thanks Tom for the review recaps and thanks to this wonderful comment section. I’ve loved tuning into every week to see us collectively realize and wax lyrical on how special this show was turning out to be, as if we were watching an underdog unknown team…

My young elementary age kid and I watched it together and despite her being restless from time to time... she still loved it, and had lots of thought provoking questions about the show (often she was confused by the motives of some characters... ‘why is Cel trying to kill Cassian??’)

I honestly thought during Maarvas speech that it may have actually gotten through to him but nah he’s still an Imperial fan boy. 

But I’m at work and have very important clients...ah fuck it, you’re right, I have FICTIONAL REBELLION TO FOMENT!  

Syril, you dumb bastard. I was wrong to call Syril “Brownshirt Javert.”” Javert was eventually able to recognize the injustice of the system he supported. Syril still doesn’t realize he’s on the wrong side even after seeing the Empire slaughter innocent people. I will now call Syril “fascist Smithers.”

Why wouldn’t Luthen find taking Cassian in appealing? He knows how supremely capable the guy is and no longer has to worry about his loyalties.

Anyone else old enough to pick up on the Irish analogies here? I mean Christ, that funeral scene!

Last nitpik - I heard Cassian say “Kill me or take me in” in his dialogue with Luthen. Maybe I heard wrong, but it gave the scene a parent/child callback to Maarva’s original abduction. Lmk if I’m wrong. I don’t watch with subtitles. But I’ll for sure watch this episode again (I’ve been watching every episode twice…

Actually you need also need a icepick and JB weld

That front end worries me also, it has either been fully replaced or repaired and painted many years ago. I am a geek for these econo boxes so I might consider it after a close inspection and some good negotiation to get that price more realistic

In today’s market, a running car for $5,500 should be Nice Price all day long...
