Guest commentator Hal Lublin decides if The Resistance are cowards, traitors or both but Poe thinks he has the answer!

Starts with Poe shouting the word "plan" and ends with Poe being escorted off the bridge.

Referenced: the Vaudeville Hook.
Some people's major complaint is that Holdo doesn't just tell Poe everything, but that's not how the military (or other structured organizations) works.
- Poe's arc in this movie revolves around learning what it is to be a leader and a hero, and he's not there yet. We saw at the start of the movie he's perfectly willing to sacrifice others but not necessarily himself.
- Poe acts like a baby, so it is reasonable that he's treated like one.
Cowards and traitors. This would be a good name for an album by the Merle Haggard of space.
