Pete and Alex were the last two people over at Chrysanthe's apartment before the pandemic in March of 2020. They distinctly remember thinking I wonder if they'll be the last people I see. '''Alex:''' here we are, on the other side we made it. *Prevaricating noises from Chrysanthe and Pete*. <Through gritted teeth> '''Alex:''' we made it.
Starts with been saying this place is great. Ends with Finn asking what are those things.
It's a fun creature minute. Pete was mixed on the “intro Bight”. As mentioned last week, the creatures feel a bit too “Babylon 5” or “Doctor Who”ish. But if you're not familiar with either of those shows it's hard to put your finger on why they feel that way. Recall: the hero of the original Cantina scene was the dim lighting, when creatures are well-lit they don't look as good. They have a certain TV quality about them. Is the comparison with the original Cantina apt? Chalmun's is a dive bar, and this is a ritzy casino. Comparisons of Canto Bight to Disney World and Las Vegas. Las Vegas now caters to the common person but it used to be you had to wear a tuxedo just to get in oh, and canto Bight seems more like that.
Chrysanthe read the Canto Bight book! '''Chrysanthe:''' For me, it's just not that much fun to read stories about rich people doing terrible stuff.
Upon seeing the movie, Chrysanthe related to Rose’s anger, and reading the book only made that worse. '''Pete:''' you wanted to put your fist through the whole book.
The worm character (played by Warwick Davis) from the first Novella in the Canto Bight book is very… {{Wookiee|Kedpin_Shoklop|phallic}}. Warwick Davis and his daughter are also  in this scene playing members of the lucky three. Warwick Davis looks like a “one-eyed worm”.
Characters that do if you're in this minute: where you {{Wookieepedia|Wayulia Tagge-Simoni|}}, the old lady that is too frail to go out so she is sending her holographic Avatar in her Stead. With a proxy droid body. The head is a younger version of herself(?). Any relation to the tagge family for the (Casio tagge of house tagge)? Wookieepedia doesn’t know.
Reference to the Bruce Willis sci-fi movie ‘’[[Wikipedia:Surrogates|Surrogates]]’’. Meta notes did Alex remember to look it up tomorrow? Like it's like a remote High School reunion where you use your high school photo instead of your current photo.
{{Wookieepedia|Thamm|the little croupier guy on the craps table}}. Apparently he emits an oddly pleasing aroma that puts patrons at ease. What does he smell like?
Mentioned: {{Wookieepedia|Lexo Sooger|}} the Dor Namethian, who has a very keen sense of smell, so he was always saying what creatures smell like.
The custom smell industry. Meta-notes, yes they’ve brought it up before, for example: [[That New Death Star Smell (episode)]]
Thamm is a Troglof, and there is another Troglof in the Empire Strikes back from a certain point of view. Organic plug for the Patreon.
How do tiny species get around in the Galaxy?
