Summary

A hologram of OBI-WAN flickers in front of a group, made up of Jedi (YODA, MACE WINDU, and KI-ADI-MUNDI) and Senators (BAIL ORGANA, ASK AAK, [sic] LUMINARA, and JAR JAR).

Guests

Tony Thaxton

Notes

Film

  • Starts with C-3PO saying that Artoo is carrying a message from Obi-Wan Kenobi, and ends with Anakin watching a message from Mace Windu.
  • Callback to when C-3PO first mentions "an Obi-Wan Kenobi" to Luke in Star Wars.
  • Change from original script: Obi-Wan calls the Jedi temple directly—there is no relay via Anakin.

Podcast

  • The Bens (Acker and Blacker) have added Tony to the list of Canonized Swimmers.
    • Alex and Pete are also canon. Their respective "levels of canonicity" are discussed.
  • What types of references and callbacks work and which don't.
  • Anakin and Padmé go back to the ship to view the message.
  • Everyone is there listening to the call on Coruscant. Did they have to assemble everybody or were they already there for like a meeting or something?
  • How much of this is live vs. a recording? Mentioned: Periscope.
Ever feel like you're just running in circles?
  • Who're the random background characters in this scene? see below.
    • Their action figures would only be visible from the back, like that episode of the Simpsons.


  • Much like in the rest of the movie, no one has any reaction to Obi-Wan's message or to the news that Nute Gunray is behind it.
  • Differences from script to screen in the message to the Jedi council.
    • Darth Tyranus mentioned. Yoda clarifies that 'Darth' is a name that Sith bear, not a title.
    • Callback to the Sido-Dyas/Sifo-Dyas typo.
    • Referenced:[[Inside References and Running Jokes|Dangerous and disturbing, this puzzle is].

Meta Minute

  • 24:18 podcast episode length.
  • As the {{{2}}} were native to the planet Vodran, it is unlikely that Peet Deretalia would have encountered one at LX-Robynsun V (which was located on the planet Reamma) unless she brought one there herself.
  • The guy with the "Bozo the clown hair" is {{{2}}}. He is human, and that thing on his head is actually an elaborate headdress. The guy next to him is {{{2}}}. Both he and Paddie are senators belonging to the loyalist committee. Neither have action figures.

Quotes

  • Pete: We got a lady, a bird, and a [base] here, we can do anything.
  • Alex: (as John Lennon (as Obi-Wan) Oh. If it's three o'clock on Coruscant they must be have'n the meetin' right now...) (normal voice) I don't even bother trying anymore.
