Summary

ANAKIN, PADMÉ, CLIEGG, OWEN, BERU, and THREEPIO are standing around Shmi’s grave.

Guests

Tony Thaxton

Notes

Film

  • Starts with Anakin kneeling at his mother's grave and ends with R2-D2 interrupting a funeral (as is his wont).
  • New Padmé outfit (#12): Geonosis attire. New Padmé outfit every 7⅓ minutes.

Podcast

  • Totally organic plug for Star Wars Minute: Weekend Edition.
  • #NakedSWM.
  • Colors of threepio units.
    • Referenced: C-3PO's red arm.
  • Anakin has been bottling up his emotions and is finally allowing himself to feel them here. He's trying to process emotions.
    • Is this a well-acted character struggling with stunted emotions or poor acting by an actor struggling with the role?
  • Anakin and Shmi montage set to Sheryl Crow.
  • "Star Trek" characters Messrs. Spock and Data.
  • Anakin promises his dead mother that he won't fail again.
  • Anakin clutches a handful of sand.
  • Padmé is wearing a battle outfit to a funeral.
    • Every three weeks of episodes we have two new Padmé outfits.
    • Watto on "Project Runway". Referenced: "Refugee" by Tom Petty.
  • Are the graves still there by the time of Star Wars? Hopefully not because this is pretty much right where the Sandcrawler parks when Owen is buying the droids.
  • Why Owen doesn't recognize C-3PO later. Referenced: the cat.
    • If droids were cars, would we recognize one we'd previously owned?
  • Droid designations.

Meta Minute

  • 33:15 podcast episode length.
  • Around when this episode aired, the guys sold out and recorded ads for their corporate overlords, which were dynamically inserted into the show. One of their more popular ads was for Dove Men+Care™ body wash.
  • "Dirt" is a generic term and does not have a rigorous geological definition—the closest word would be soil, which is a mix of sand, clay (both inorganic), and humus (biotic origin). Sand is a specific type of sediment with a clast size ranging that of silt and gravel (0.074–4.75 millimeters).
  • This is one of only a handful of episodes where the Wiki is mentioned on the main show.
  • This episode is also most likely the genesis of the R2-3PO shirt design now available on Teepublic.

Quotes

  • Alex: (re: Dove Men+Care™ body wash) "Taste the Rainbow".
  • Pete: (as an officiant) Dearly beloved, we're— <cuts himself off, as C-3PO> Ehh!
  • Pete: I don't know if this was a choice or... default. Alex: It's da fault of the director.
  • Alex: The STAR WARS MINUTE Wiki people are gonna love this.
