Notes

- Starts off with Anakin scoping out the Native Tatooiner encampment, and ends a minute later with Shmi asking Ani if it's him.
- The big emotional climax of the Shmi-Ani storyline.
Podcast
- Scenes and dialog were cut for time, yet we have the seconds to spare for this shot of space dogs fighting over a bone.
- The Native Tatooiners' interest in the "dogs". Callback to the notion of "Tusken Raiders as hillbillies" covered during the original Star Wars Minute.

- Pete, with Alex joining in: <Singing, to the tune of Kumbaya, My Lord> ♫ Kumumgah, my lord, Kumumgah. Kumumgah my lord...♪
