iariaChapter 9: The Marshal
+ Baby Yoda immediately locking himself in his carriage - lol.
+ Din tries but I am questioning his dad qualifications. Don't take babies to fight clubs! (Or at least close his carriage first!) Don't take the baby into life or death situations in general, even if it's only as an observer. Don't bring the baby to fight a bloody dragon! Don't leave him alone right there while fighting said dragon. I get why he doesn't want to leave Baby Yoda alone but yikes. Also with all this casual violence and murder he is maybe not being the best influence on Baby Yoda, just possibly. (Though of course I adore his fierce protectiveness and care of The Child.)
+ Poor Baby Yoda's spends so much of his time this episode really worried - hiding in the pot when the krayt dragon went by, his worried look when the lizard-dog licked it's lips, his fear when the krayt dragon ate the Tusken.
+ I loved Din's ruthlessness in leaving Gor Koresh to be eaten. That was dark.
+ Nice to see Peli Motto again. I loved her offer to pay for a Baby Yoda of her own.
+ Aww scary lizard puppies who like scratches.
+ Loved the krayt dragon. It looked excellent. Plus I've always loved Tremors.
+ Loved Din taking down the krayt dragon by letting it eat him. That's certainly going to do wonders for his reputation!
+ I loved how clearly Din's shock/horror at Cobb removing his helmet came through. The show has built this up enough that I had a similar shocked 'gasp, no' reaction to it.
+ Liked Cobb. Hope we see him again.
