Poe Dameron gives the First Order a call

None

Starts with General Hux being notified that there's a Resistance ship approaching and ends with Hux announcing to Poe that he and his friends are doomed.

Blustery Hux arrives in this minute. Poe and Hux are intentionally over the top.
Communications officer is {{{2}}}. What if that was her actual name? Referenced: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
- First Order officer uniforms have names on cuffs that are tributes to officer's past. Hers' says 'Ro', which means she's a sergeant.
- Played by Kate Dickie.
  - Who were they in Superman? She was in "Game of Thrones". Also Prometheus, where she played a character named Ford (reverse fever dream?)
- Is this nominative determinism, or did Hux never bother to learn her real name? Maybe she comes from a long line of Monitors - the Monitor family.

26:15 podcast episode length.
Pointed out by User:Saiseeeeee Tiin on the SWMLS message board: In this minute BB-8 was confirmed to be saying "I have a bad feeling about this", which is why Poe replies with the 'Happy Beeps' line.
- Reference to the Saessee Tin running joke.
