I love that Nikki caught that the Baby was working WITH Mando on this. Most reviewers I've been seeing have thought it was just accidental. No, Baby was running interference. He was getting Zero out of the cockpit to buy Mando time to do his thing.

If you watch any classic serial, there are self contained episodes that play into a larger over-arching story, with certain episodes being dedicated to the overarching story.

I see why one would think the last 3 episodes are stand alone or “filler” but I see them as all connected. The entire season is a story. Episode 1 is the setup. We are introduced to Mando and what his life is like. Then he accepts the job that’s going to get him the steel to upgrade his armor. Then he meets baby yoda. That’s what’s called the inciting incident in storytelling. The next 2 episodes is Mando dealing with this new situation and having to make a decision....does he turn in baby yoda and go back to his regular life or does he save the child and accept this new direction? Episode 4 is all about him looking for a place to hide out for a while to figure out what he’s going to do next. Episode 5 and 6 is Mando trying to get jobs outside of the guild. He still needs money to survive. He meets new people and old acquaintances along the way. He faces obstacles. Wins some, loses some but mostly we learn that his situation isn’t going to improve unless he does something to change it. That’s when the final episodes come in. These are what’s called the final push, major setback, and climax of the story. I’d be willing to bet that several of the characters we’ve met this season will show up again at some point. It’s great world building. Each episode fleshes out Mando more and more. We’ve seen how he deals with new planets, species, situations, etc. he’s not just a cool looking character with great armor and weapons. He’s a 3 dimensional, living, breathing, caring person underneath that helmet. Personally wish the creative minds behind this show had been in charge of the sequel trilogy.

The 2nd half of the ep reminded me of Batman. Especially when Mando was hunting the crew.

Found Nikki and Steve last week, through some other big Mandalorian react video with multiple other channels combined, but they stuck out to me because their reactions were the best to watch and also seemed like a cute couple that would be fun to hang out with in real life. You got my subscribe!

It is very simple, the first season is all about introductions. They have these singular stories to just introduce a lot of character we are going to see throughout the show. I personally love that we finally have a show that is not about some convoluted story that more than often end up a disappointment. Game of Thrones is a great example of this. I have missed shows like Star Trek, Firefly and Stargate where you could just sit down an watch an episode and you are served a story with a beginning and an end. Compared to many shows I rarely rewatch them because I would have to watch the entire thing because it is a long overarching story. But sometimes if I feel like watching Stargate or Firefly I can just pick an episode and enjoy it. And now I can do that with a Star Wars show, which I think is awesome. I think people are way too obsessed with baby Yoda, this is not a show about him, it is about The Mandalorian. Think of it like Star Wars lone wolf and cub, and you just see their adventures throughout the galaxy.

Prediction: Baby Yoda’s first word will come at the end of episode 8. And it will be “Mando.” Loved loved loved this episode!

Great job identifying the actors. Also, the Droid (Zero) was voiced by Richard Ayoade from the IT Crowd. And the guy who gave him the job is from Sons of Anarchy. Lots of guest stars in this one.

Luke stayed out of the desert until he had to go there. He had no reason to know. Mando goes there because the bad guys tend to go out there. He needs to know.

I was super tensed throughout the whole episode too! Panicking about baby yoda the whole time.

First, you TWO ARE ADORABLE! I love ya! Two story lines are going here. First, the child's mystery line. Its unknown and he picked it up. He has no more idea than we do what the deal is for the baby. The second story line is him going through his life. Its like a documentary following someone through his life. This is cinema verity. There isn't a deeper story. He's just living his life with a mystery. Anyone else who wants more doesn't get writing. I am thinking that Boba Fett was the guy. It would be the best cliff hanger of all time. LOVE YA1

Luke’s Uncle’s farm was invading their territory so they would attack on sight while someone clearly traveling might just need permission.

It's kind of the Dave Filoni type story telling though. He did that with Rebels also. Use the first couple eps of a season and the season finale (in a longer season also mid-season finale) to explore the bigger picture and keep the rest of the season individual adventures. This really is more a live-action version of the animated shows he used to make. But his shows also developed and did more and more bigger story arcs from season to season. So we'll see

It seems like the showrunners are setting the stage for Mando to lose Baby Yoda and get captured, which would establish a season 2 plotline in which Mando has to escape and find the little homie. In Chapter 4 he wasn't close to being captured, but that other bounty hunter almost sniped him and Baby Yoda. In Chapter 5, he came close to being sniped, and the jackass he met in the Cantina was on the verge of fleeing with the kid. In this Chapter, he came damn close to losing Baby Yoda and getting trapped in jail. They're building up to something big. And I'd guess the mystery guy from Chapter 5 will be involved. Or I could be 100% wrong.

You can still hear the Kurgan when Burg is laughing. Good ol' Clancy Brown!

Clancy Brown from "Highlander"!!!! (The guy with the horns who lifted the door that fell on him, best known for his role as the Kurgan in HL, the murderous prison captain in "The Shawshank Redemption", and the voice of Mr. Crab on "SpongeBob Squarepants" as well as numerous other roles) I know that evil laugh ANYWHERE!!

So you've told me before that you already watched Star Wars Rebels and you said that the only reason you didn't watch Star Wars The Clone Wars was because watching over 100 episodes would take a long time. That is true but trust me, The Clone Wars CG animated series is worth it. It gives you more on the Mandalorian politics and so much more. The series has many different arcs and all are very engaging. Maybe you can just watch it on your own time without recording and uploading your reactions.

PS Entertainment Tonight and Variety have videos of the show with the characters. The baby isn't a puppet. Its an animatronic robotic figure who has to be managed by two people. Almost zero cgi. He's really interacting with the baby. :D:D:D

I totally agree about the Boba Fett thing, I think he was made to be an antagonist, and I know that the creators of both the originals and the mandalorian knew that they could use voices to portray their characters. Boba has more of an antagonist-like voice and Mando has a pretty chill sounding voice so you know who is a protagonist and who is an antagonist

Great reaction guys! That was definitely a fav episode! I’m loving the chapters. It’s likes the serials back in the day!

The citizens of Tatooine may be prejudiced against the sand people kinda like how we treated Native Americans or how white Australians treated the aborigines thru their early histories.

I was just talking to a buddy at work about this very episode and pointed out an awesome fact that I overlooked. When Steven said they introduced a bunch of characters without killing them off. That's mostly true... Mando did put a hole through Zero's head because of his hate for droids. Which I thought was an awesome insight to Mando's character. He'll go through extreme lengths to prevent human deaths, but f' them droids.

Nikki called what they were going to do to Mando as soon as they dropped down into the prison ship. Props

I did not realise when I first watched this episode that the red guy with horns is Clancy Brown a.k.a. The Kurgen from Highlander. And the Twi'lek girl is Natalia Tena who played the wildling Osha (who helps Bran) in Game of Thrones, and Nymphadora Tonks off of Harry Potter. And the guy who played the droid is Richard Ayoade off of The IT Crowd.

I think part of the problem with 'filler' episodes, is that we know there only are 8 episodes in the season. With only 8 episodes we expect more progress on the main story. Disclaimer: That doesn't change that it was a great episode.

When mando got out, it was like a horror movie for the other guys and mando on the hunt. the part with baby yoda i wonder if he is still force sensitive after episode 3 with what that doctor did to him. I too hope its not fett and its the guy from breaking bad from the trailers.

Who are these two people? Ohhh I recognize them now. Welcome back and glad you are feeling better Nikki.

The Twi'lek girl is Osha the wildling from Game of Thrones. Well, same actress. The big Devaronian is the drill sergeant from Starship Troopers. EDIT yes the actor's name is Clancy Brown and he's also Mr. Krab's voice and the Kurgan in the first Highlander movie.

If y'all don't know.....Boba is probably not in the pit. In one of the Aftermath books (canon) a set of partially melted/digested Mando armor was found in a Jawa sandcrawler around the wreckage of Jabbas barge.

Glad to see you well again Nicki, I agree with Steven, this seems to be the direction the show is going in. I love these individual stories and I'm sure from time to time they'll be giving us some nuggets along the way. I was curious where you would place this episode, for me episode 3 was my favorite but I think this one scores pretty high as well.

Dave Filoni likes episodic stuff. He usually uses the beginning and end of a season for the bigger picture and the mid-season for purely episodic stuff. Seems to be the pattern they're following again. However if it's sucessful and once the characters and world have been set up a bit more he often does more story arcs over a couple episodes in later seasons. I'm sure that'll happen here as well. In his shows the first season is almost always purely episodic.

Finally! Waited for you guy's reaction.

Me too! Lol i was checking all day to see if they posted it 😂

Summing up: Ran is Mark Boone Jr, aka Bobby "Elvis" Munsen from Sons of Anarchy Xi'an was Natalia Tena, aka Osha from GoT, and Tonks from Harry Potter Devaronian is Clancy Brown, aka Kurgan from Highlander, sgt. Zim from Starship Troopers, guard in Shawshank Redemption, and more. The X-wing pilots were all directors - Dave Filoni, Rick Famuyiwa, and Deborah Chow. Republic guard voiced Anakin in the Clone Wars. Voice for the droid was a british comedian from the IT Crowd. Stellar cast for this episode.

omg i didn't know natalia tena from the harry potter series in the mandalorian. I didn't even reconize her at first until i looked up it's tonks, I loved the episode it was very cool and the color scheme. mando and yoda team. I love it. can't wait for another reaction video Nikki and steven.

The 3 x-wing pilots are all directors from this season.

@@Mach1Greeble I said all the pilots were directers, not all directors were pilots. 🙄

You called that one part "horror flick" -- I called it the "Batman scene".

One thing you must understand about the Tuscan Raiders is in a book Luke dressed up and actually traveled with them for a while.

what book did that happen in?

This episode definitely stepped it up!! I was stressed all through it. I started cheering when the X-Wing Fighters at the end showed up!!

Watching Nikki freak out was the best reaction I've seen for this episode yet! :D

Also the female pilot at the end was Deborah Chow, director of two Mandalorian episodes this season

Happy to see you feeling better Nikki. Steven I like your twitch live gaming. You guys are cool

The guy in the control room is Matt Lanter. The voice of Anakin in The Clone Wars

Glad to see my YT family is back in action!!!

Remember this for the future: Sometimes an episode isn't import because of what happens right now, but because of what it is setting up in another episode.

To be fair, Luke didn't exactly have a lot of time to communicate with the sand people since they pretty much KO'd him on sight. It's possible that the mandalorians didn't share the communication capabilities with non-mandalorians. From what I've seen across the movies, animated series, and videogames containing moments with sand people, they aren't completely feral and uncivilized. They have their own kind of civilization complete with a chieftain (or at least they did during the era of the old republic). Also, Xi-an was played by Natalia Pena who played Tonks in the Harry Potter movies.

Hey Steven, just watching your reaction. Haven't gotten to the episode react yet. I just want to say something about the Tusken Raiders. They can act civil. It's not Canon, but when I was a kid, I read the book series of Junior Jedi Knights. There we follow the story of Anakin Solo and soon to be girlfriend of his Tahiri Veila as children. When they were on Coruscant as children at the Jedi Temple, we see that Tahiri walks around barefoot. This is cuz, she's from Tattooine. She was a human child, but we come to learn that, she was found by the Tusken Raiders, and she was raised as one of them. There are other instances of them having the capability of acting civil, it's just a matter of approach and someone having knowledge of how to do so. It doesn't matter if they're someone who was raised on Tattooine, or a galactic traveller. A lot is not known of them, cuz people of any species sees them as brutes, and tend to stay away from them when coming to Tattooine Okay, thanks much for your time 😁😁😁
