Transcripts

Xhafer:

Hello and welcome to Last Time On.

2

:

This is the podcast for people who want

to watch all this prestige television.

3

:

But honestly, who's got

fucking time for that?

4

:

Ben: I know I don't.

5

:

Xhafer: I'm Jafar.

6

:

Ben: And I am Ben.

7

:

Xhafer: we are here with our

finale of Into the Badlands.

8

:

Ben: Doesn't it feel like we just started?

9

:

Xhafer: feel like we just started?

10

:

We did.

11

:

Ben: Oh right, that's the

whole point of this game.

12

:

Xhafer: It is what we are doing.

13

:

here.

14

:

Um.

15

:

I was,

16

:

One, surprised to see...

17

:

The cliffhanger ending.

18

:

Yeah,

19

:

Ben: Uh, yeah.

20

:

Xhafer: I tried seeing if there

was a, synopsis of someone had

21

:

said what season four was gonna be.

22

:

Nope.

23

:

Ben: Yeah.

24

:

Uh, but

25

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

26

:

Uh, but

27

:

not, not the full on.

28

:

I couldn't find anything that might be

fun to read as we go over predictions.

29

:

Ben: We don't know where

it might have gone.

30

:

Yeah.

31

:

That's too bad.

32

:

I was excited to finally be able to

like, start looking up production

33

:

information and everything, and It,

it seemed like the show kind of got

34

:

jerked around by AMC, who were just

like, You're not as popular as The

35

:

Walking Dead, you're therefore useless.

36

:

Uh, and found out Season 3 aired over

the course of like a year and a half.

37

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

38

:

Ben: Which is just like, oh you

only do this if you hate a TV show.

39

:

Or your Battlestar Collective.

40

:

Xhafer: No, no, still applies.

41

:

yeah.

42

:

Yeah,

43

:

So, uh, a bit unfortunate to

see that this is our finale.

44

:

Uh, but we do get a wrap

up to most storylines.

45

:

Yes.

46

:

So let's get into it.

47

:

, we open on the Widow giving Sonny a sword.

48

:

Ben: Yeah,

49

:

Xhafer: Stephen Lang's sword.

50

:

Yeah,

51

:

is this the first time we've seen

these two characters together?

52

:

Ben: We know they have interacted,

but we've never seen it.

53

:

Uh, oh no, they, they

interact in the pilot.

54

:

Xhafer: No,

55

:

they don't.

56

:

Oh, oh, yes.

57

:

Yeah, yeah.

58

:

In the town, they interact for a

couple of seconds in the pilot.

59

:

And she's like,

60

:

Ben: hey, come work for

me, and he's like, no.

61

:

, I'm only the clipper

for the armadillo clan.

62

:

It's like, haha, no.

63

:

Xhafer: Yep, yep,

64

:

And it's Waldo's sword

whom they can't find.

65

:

Ben: No.

66

:

So Stephen Lang not

confirmed dead, I'm guessing.

67

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

68

:

I said they can't find.

69

:

Ben: Yeah.

70

:

Well that means like,

71

:

Xhafer: like, Yeah, they...

72

:

Ben: because he's been killed off.

73

:

He, he disappeared.

74

:

Yeah, they can't find Waldo then.

75

:

I know, I'm agreeing with you.

76

:

Yeah.

77

:

But I'm saying, elucidating

for the people at home.

78

:

When, when he disappeared,

we're like, oop, is

79

:

Xhafer: Ben And I'm sure I'm

making a where's Waldo joke,

80

:

and you're shitting all over it

81

:

You didn't need to unzip

so hastily there, sir.

82

:

It's uncouth.

83

:

It's okay.

84

:

After this we see our titular

seven from Seven Strike is

85

:

One, the name of this episode.

86

:

Moon, Kanan, Badgey, Sunny,

Minerva, Gaius, and Tilda.

87

:

Ben: Yes, one of these things

is not like the others.

88

:

Xhafer: Uh, and they are greeted

by an army of Black Lotus soldiers.

89

:

Yes.

90

:

Ben: Uh,

91

:

Xhafer: maybe actual Azra, maybe not.

92

:

Pretty sure no, based off of the

things that happened in this episode.

93

:

Ben: that the Black Lotus destroyed Azra.

94

:

Xhafer: Yes.

95

:

But that could also not . that doesn't

mean that they're not from Azra also.

96

:

Um, yeah.

97

:

And it could be metaphorically

destroy azra as well.

98

:

Um, after theme, the pilgrim

turns his 15 dark gifted

99

:

soldiers into also missionaries.

100

:

And most of them let

out a board begrudging.

101

:

Exhale.

102

:

at The thought of missionary.

103

:

Come

104

:

on,

105

:

Ben: I'm sadly shaking my head.

106

:

For those of you at

107

:

Xhafer: you .regardless,

they're still untrained.

108

:

But we get like an

almost zombie looking mk.

109

:

Oh

110

:

Ben: Oh yeah.

111

:

He's, he's burned all bad.

112

:

Xhafer: And he's going to teach

them the secret in three sentences.

113

:

Ben: He's just like, Hey, you don't

have to bleed if you like access your

114

:

pain and sadness, and boom, everybody

suddenly can turn on their gift instantly.

115

:

And it's like, why did they need a

whole, uh, Uh, Kung Fu Monastery.

116

:

Uh, this is real easy.

117

:

Xhafer: Right?

118

:

It's embarrassingly easy.

119

:

It.

120

:

Ben: easy.

121

:

I understand, hey, we've got

a lot of ground to cover.

122

:

Uh, in this episode.

123

:

But I would have loved to have

like one guy who's just like,

124

:

I, what do you mean by that?

125

:

It's just like, think of

some really sad stuff.

126

:

I'm trying.

127

:

I don't know.

128

:

Xhafer: uh,

129

:

so says some shit to Henry that

makes me think he won't make it.

130

:

Ben: Uh, he also gives a significantly

worse pep talk to the good guys,

131

:

who's just like, Hey, we're going

out tomorrow, put your affairs

132

:

in order, we're all gonna die.

133

:

It's like, that's not a

good pep talk, um, Sonny.

134

:

Xhafer: The way he, so he talks to Minerva

after this, and the way he talks about

135

:

the importance of children, makes me

think Tilda isn't actually her daughter.

136

:

In fact, I'm gonna go ahead and,

last time on, uh, because if we

137

:

remember correctly, that renegade...

138

:

That was doing the rebellion

also called her mother.

139

:

Ben: Well that seems to be

consistent among all of her people.

140

:

Yes,

141

:

Xhafer: exactly.

142

:

So last time on I have misread

their entire relationship.

143

:

Tilda is not actually Minerva's daughter.

144

:

Ben: So biologically not related.

145

:

Yes.

146

:

Would explain why they

don't look anything alike.

147

:

Xhafer: alike.

148

:

Yes.

149

:

Ben: So we cut over to, the Pilgrim

and Cressida, and Cressida is

150

:

having second, third, and fourth and

fifth thoughts, about, unleashing

151

:

a, , megalomaniacal, wannabe god on

the world, and giving him superpowers.

152

:

Xhafer: Yep.

153

:

Ben: Turns out, she may be a

horrible person, she's not pro...

154

:

Super genocide.

155

:

Uh, the pilgrim seems hell bent on, , I

can give the the gift to anyone, so

156

:

either you accept it and become one

of my soldiers, or we just kill you.

157

:

Xhafer: Yeah, not even the

158

:

middle ground of, you're willing

159

:

to be oppressed.

160

:

Ben: You're either, kung fu

blood, blood mage or nothing.

161

:

Xhafer: Yep.

162

:

He says that he's going to

empower her with the gift as well.

163

:

Whether or not she wants it.

164

:

Yes.

165

:

And then we have, a montage of our heroes

166

:

with weapons to commercial.

167

:

Ben: Yes, we get a suiting up

montage, which is always awesome.

168

:

Xhafer: Mhmm, always appreciate.

169

:

we come back to them making their plan.

170

:

Badgie and Sunny will storm the

Pilgrim's Temple with the army.

171

:

Uh, and then the rest are to destroy

whatever actually grants the dark gift.

172

:

Ben: Yes, there seems to be this

temple sort of thing that they can use.

173

:

Xhafer: I call it the

Death Star Control Room.

174

:

Ben: It does, it does have

computers and stuff, yeah.

175

:

Xhafer: It's, well, it's even like,

it's not the, like, the main room

176

:

where they fire the guns, but it's

like the room where when they're hiding

177

:

as stormtroopers, they hide out in.

178

:

Like, with the red panels and, like,

the computers are the same shape.

179

:

Ben: that's the, landing bay control room.

180

:

Yes.

181

:

Yes.

182

:

Xhafer: Uh, somebody played

some Star Wars card games,

183

:

?

Ben: I did, but I also just know that 'cause I'm a nerd.

184

:

Uh, Sonny

185

:

Xhafer: because I'm a nerd.

186

:

Uh, Sunny puts Minerva and Gaius

as Henry's emergency contact.

187

:

Ben: Yes.

188

:

Xhafer: And

189

:

Moon goes with Sunny and Badgey

so that he can kill Cressida.

190

:

Ben: Yeah, they're like, so we

finally get our seven heroes

191

:

together and Sonny's immediately

like, alright, let's split up gang

192

:

Xhafer: We've

193

:

been hanging out for thirty seconds

194

:

Ben: and that's too much for me.

195

:

Tilda, Widow, Gaius, and Silvermoon,

you guys go blow up the magic base,

196

:

and, Silvermoon's like, But that puts

Cressida outside of stabby range,

197

:

Xhafer: Hmm, not okay.

198

:

the

199

:

Ben: thing I care about is

200

:

Xhafer: ring I've got some rebar and

201

:

the only

202

:

Ben: doesn't have rebar

anymore, did you notice that?

203

:

Xhafer: I did

204

:

Ben: He has a nice new claw

that has a, dagger in it.

205

:

Xhafer: a throwing thing too.

206

:

Ben: Did you also notice that

Tilda now has two glaives?

207

:

I was very excited.

208

:

Xhafer: Minerva tells Gaius that

he's gonna be a dad and they

209

:

start to kiss before Tilda tells

him that they're literally four

210

:

steps away from a pile of gore.

211

:

Ben: Yeah.

212

:

Like nobody can smell

anything in the Badlands

213

:

.

Xhafer: Nope.

214

:

You tune it all out.

215

:

Years of exposure.

216

:

Minerva tells Tilda to head

back and live her life.

217

:

and also we find out Tilda is totally

gay with Odessa this whole time.

218

:

Ben: Or at least bi

219

:

Xhafer: Well, yes.

220

:

The

221

:

implication being, she is in a, yes,

a queer relationship with Odessa.

222

:

So, over in the Death Star control room,

uh, the Pilgrim grants the gift and

223

:

kills an Acolyte who refuses the gift.

224

:

And then Cressida is saved by the boats

225

:

invading their island castle

and prepare for battle.

226

:

Ben: Yeah, we get a

convenient, Okay, you're next.

227

:

You dare refuse me?

228

:

Hey, um, We're under attack.

229

:

We'll talk about this later.

230

:

Um, sort of thing.

231

:

And, uh, Yeah, that was the sort

of, like, convenient timing that

232

:

worked out really well for Crescent.

233

:

It

234

:

Xhafer: It did.

235

:

Our heroes land in charge, and

we cut over to the castle where

236

:

they open the gates to greet them.

237

:

And this is where we learn that the Black

Lotus destroyed Azra and spared no one.

238

:

And that makes sense because they

hunted Sunny, He had the gift, Sunny's

239

:

from Azra, et cetera, et cetera.

240

:

So that's why they wanted

Sunny so bad when he was a kid.

241

:

Ben: And we are set up for a giant kung

fu fight in a natural history mu museum.

242

:

Uh, I was all prepped for somebody to

fight up the, the dinosaur skeleton.

243

:

Xhafer: the

244

:

Ben: And the dinosaur cell skeleton

does factor in a little bit, but

245

:

Xhafer: not, as much.

246

:

Ben: as much as I'd like.

247

:

Xhafer: Uh, Cressida says that

she has loved the pilgrim as a

248

:

mother, a woman, and a confessor.

249

:

Ben: Y

250

:

Xhafer: Yeah, I'm hoping

251

:

at least only one of those first two.

252

:

Yikes.

253

:

Uh, she had a vision of

the pilgrim killing her and

254

:

everything around them in ruin.

255

:

He cares not,

256

:

Ben: Hey, you're gonna

kill the whole world.

257

:

And he's just like, No, I'm not like you.

258

:

We've, we've gotten all the way

here because of you following my

259

:

visions, and now you're just like,

yeah, but I don't like this one.

260

:

Xhafer: Right.

261

:

The hubris of man.

262

:

Ben: Uh, we also now

cut over to, uh, Tilda.

263

:

Just popping fools with a Crossbo.

264

:

Xhafer: Yes,

265

:

Ben: it was great.

266

:

Xhafer: Uh, with Gaius and Minerva,

uh, they start to plant bombs when

267

:

MK jumps in to talk shit and get hit.

268

:

We have our big fight

scene in the main hall.

269

:

Where are the spears at?

270

:

I can understand the heroes

not spear fighting, but you've

271

:

got like an army running in.

272

:

This is the situation where

you want a couple dudes.

273

:

With spears.

274

:

You don't want everyone with spears,

but you want a couple dudes with spears

275

:

Ben: I mean, it's, it's inside.

276

:

Xhafer: Exactly.

277

:

Yeah, You want a couple dudes with spears

for this big open room and staircases, but

278

:

that's about all you'd want a spear for.

279

:

Ben: I know.

280

:

But yeah, once you're not in the main

museum room, like a spear might is

281

:

going to definitely be an encumbrance.

282

:

Yeah.

283

:

Xhafer: But it's so easy to

hold a staircase with a spear.

284

:

It's embarrassingly easy to

hold a staircase with a spear.

285

:

Ben: It, it can be if you

know what you, you're doing.

286

:

Xhafer: with a spear, If

you know what you're doing.

287

:

Uh, we see baggie suppress the gift here.

288

:

Ben: Baggies magic now.

289

:

Uh, Jair.

290

:

Yes.

291

:

Woo.

292

:

Her

293

:

Xhafer: Uh, baggie was always magic

294

:

Uh,

295

:

Ben: I think it's better if you

just don't elucidate on that.

296

:

Just what happened here.

297

:

What Ji was always magic.

298

:

You didn't know

299

:

,

Xhafer: uh, gie had the gift.

300

:

Um, and he suppresses the gift

badgie was just always magic,

301

:

just the whole time, it just

302

:

never came up.

303

:

Ben: I never asked.

304

:

Xhafer: Um, I actually think this

has been present for a while.

305

:

Because there's a minute in the

scene where we have, uh, Sunny

306

:

and Badgie a couple episodes ago.

307

:

Ben: Where they're in the, the monastery?

308

:

Xhafer: Well, when they're in the, uh,

when they had just like left, uh, Kanan.

309

:

Oh, okay.

310

:

And he's talking about, like,

activating his gift, and Badgey's

311

:

kinda like, well, I can help.

312

:

I think that was much more like,

not a, I can help kill the dude, but

313

:

a, I can help suppress your gift.

314

:

Ben: Like, I literally can do this.

315

:

Xhafer: Yeah, I literally can do this.

316

:

Also, I was so confused as

to why Badgie was going.

317

:

Except, you've got Nick Frost.

318

:

Ben: I just loved him running

around with his little nunchucks.

319

:

Just

320

:

Xhafer: chucks, just

321

:

Ben: It was very

322

:

Xhafer: I have to get close enough

to press my thumb To your neck.

323

:

And then throw you over to

Sonny so that he can axe you.

324

:

Ben: Uh, I do.

325

:

When he first did it in this

fight, I was just like, wait

326

:

Xhafer: Wait, is

327

:

Ben: is Bady magic now?

328

:

And then later we get like,

uh, a better shot of it.

329

:

Yeah.

330

:

I'm like, Badgi is magic now.

331

:

.

Xhafer: Yes.

332

:

Uh, I do think, uh, that Badgie

is quite literally from Azra too.

333

:

Cause there's the bit at the end where

it's all like, Oh, the last children of

334

:

Azra, and the man who brought us together.

335

:

But, like, he's still there, too.

336

:

Like, I don't know.

337

:

The Pilgrim could have been

referring to Badgie more than

338

:

one time in those statements.

339

:

Ben: Um,

340

:

Xhafer: without context, it's hard to say.

341

:

Ben: Um,

342

:

Xhafer: the Pilgrim, uh, er, is

it, no, Badgey headbutts a dude

343

:

so hard his head kind of explodes.

344

:

In this fight too.

345

:

Ben: Oh,

346

:

Xhafer: don't know if you caught that.

347

:

Ben: I saw the pilgrim punch a

guy so hard he spits up blood.

348

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

349

:

Yeah.

350

:

The pilgrim punches people so

hard that they, uh, v blood.

351

:

But badgi, headbutts a dude and all

of this blood comes rushing out of

352

:

his mouth and I'm just like, damn,

353

:

Ben: damn.

354

:

Xhafer: That's like liquified brain shit.

355

:

Like that's not pretty.

356

:

No.

357

:

Um.

358

:

Ben: We cut over to Cresta,

just packing her shit.

359

:

Xhafer: just

360

:

Ben: just like, Nope.

361

:

Throw it in the bag.

362

:

I'm outta here.

363

:

Xhafer: We get lots of

cool looking sword fights.

364

:

We see MK versus Tilda, uh, Minerva

and Gaia start to come to a draw.

365

:

Uh, Cressida is packing up some

spell kit stuff and the sacred

366

:

skulls and a dark gif initiate is

just like, oh, I'll squirt you out.

367

:

Sure.

368

:

Yeah.

369

:

Ben: You are Cressida.

370

:

Of course.

371

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

372

:

um, MK can't bring himself to kill Tilda.

373

:

Yes.

374

:

Uh, given your comment earlier,

do you assume that there was a

375

:

romantic relationship between these

two that we completely missed?

376

:

One sided.

377

:

ooh.

378

:

Ben: don't believe, uh, so I wasn't

necessarily implying that, uh, Tilda was

379

:

bi, I was just trying not to box her in.

380

:

Xhafer: The correct thing to do.

381

:

Ben: I got the feeling that, MK

would have no problem killing

382

:

Gaius or the Widow, but has...

383

:

If not, uh, romantic, at least

strong friendship feelings for Tilda

384

:

that wouldn't let him kill her.

385

:

Which also is bringing more to,

when people are activating the

386

:

gift, they don't just go crazy.

387

:

Xhafer: Mm-hmm.

388

:

Ben: It's more controlled.

389

:

Xhafer: Moon finds Cressida who says

that this war is no longer her war,

390

:

and Moon does not give a single fuck.

391

:

Ben: She's like, we don't

have any beefs anymore.

392

:

I'm not fighting here anymore.

393

:

You killed my girlfriend,

but, but I'm leaving.

394

:

It's like, you killed my girlfriend.

395

:

I'm unarmed.

396

:

There's no honor in that.

397

:

You killed my girlfriend.

398

:

Xhafer: Right?

399

:

Ben: like, duh.

400

:

Silvermoon gets tackled quickly

from behind, and while he quickly

401

:

dispatches the guy who attacks

him, Uh, we do get this wonderful

402

:

shot of just Cressida zoopin away

on a boat, just like, Fuck off!

403

:

See

404

:

Xhafer: See you in season four, bitch.

405

:

It comes down

406

:

to Sunny Canaan and bade versus

the Pilgrim in the Fortress Halls.

407

:

The last children of Ara and the

one who brought them together.

408

:

So, Ben, uh, I propose,

what happened here?

409

:

The implication here is that

Bajji brought not just Sunny

410

:

and Kanan, but also the Pilgrim?

411

:

Ben: I didn't get that.

412

:

Xhafer: refers to the group

collectively, we are the last children of

413

:

Ben: Azra.

414

:

Xhafer: Azra.

415

:

He includes himself in this statement.

416

:

Yeah.

417

:

So.

418

:

With the following statement that

implies that Bajji brought the

419

:

pilgrim either to the Badlands or

saved him from Azra or something.

420

:

So wa hapa her,

421

:

Ben: this brings in a giant conundrum

with accents, uh, that I don't

422

:

think this show gave a crap about,

423

:

Xhafer: Sure.

424

:

Didn't.

425

:

I was able to read some

production stuff now too.

426

:

since we're done with the show and, season

two and three were filmed in Ireland.

427

:

Yes.

428

:

Season one, Louisiana.

429

:

Ben: Yes.

430

:

, I think, Azra was the, shining beacon

of life in the post apocalypse.

431

:

But it was also very class

stratified, and it was, not a

432

:

place with a lot of opportunities.

433

:

So, hey, you were safe, but you

didn't have a lot of personal freedom.

434

:

Badgie

435

:

doesn't like that.

436

:

Xhafer: No, he wouldn't.

437

:

He doesn't play

438

:

Ben: those games.

439

:

We learn in this episode, Badgie used to

be a pirate, even though he hates boats.

440

:

Uh, heh, so, uh, Badgie,

complicated relationship with

441

:

boats and people who own them.

442

:

Xhafer: Uh,

443

:

Ben: so, I...

444

:

It's possible, but he also had a...

445

:

Ex wife who owned a boat.

446

:

Um, But, I believe that Bajie hated

the constraints of Azra so much

447

:

that he, uh, He became a pirate even

with his hatred and fear of the sea.

448

:

Uh, and that meant when the Black

Lotus did attack and everything went,

449

:

uh, went belly up, He was one of

the few people who had some sort of

450

:

plan, had some sort of idea of, Well,

what do I do outside of the city?

451

:

I would never leave the city.

452

:

It's Azra.

453

:

Why would we go outside?

454

:

Um, how would I escape the city?

455

:

I've never thought to leave.

456

:

And, and Badgie's just like, I got a boat.

457

:

I've got my, you know,

place where I'm tied up.

458

:

Here, a couple of survivors.

459

:

Come with me.

460

:

Come with me.

461

:

Throw them into the boat,

putt, putt, putt, putt, putt,

462

:

putt, and get out of there.

463

:

Xhafer: Get out.

464

:

All right.

465

:

uh, we get some really cool fight

scene stuff here, until Tilda

466

:

jumps in front of Minerva, Saving

her, but sacrificing herself.

467

:

Uh, Tilda becomes Minerva's

468

:

Krillin, her death making her go

Super Saiyan, and she gets the force.

469

:

Ben: Yeah, uh, she is able to just

pick MK up and throw him around.

470

:

Uh, so, Ja'far?

471

:

Xhafer: Yeah, Ben?

472

:

Ben: Ben?

473

:

Let's get weird with it.

474

:

Xhafer: Besides this being

a power that has existed and

475

:

everyone we see is just an idiot.

476

:

Like, or not an idiot, but untrained.

477

:

Mm-hmm.

478

:

,Uh, like we see the master throw

the broom, which then throws MK.

479

:

Same powers.

480

:

This has always been a

thing, we just didn't see it.

481

:

And the people that we know that are

dark gifted that we see regularly

482

:

aren't trained in force, push, and pull.

483

:

Okay.

484

:

Uh, is my actual answer.

485

:

But my weird with it answer, uh,

which is what I should have said

486

:

initially because that's the prompt.

487

:

Uh, is, it's actually the force.

488

:

Ben: Ooh,

489

:

Xhafer: this is a long time

ago in a galaxy far, far away.

490

:

Surprise motherfucker.

491

:

Ben: See?

492

:

Do you fair?

493

:

I think, yes, Ben.

494

:

What the gift does is it doesn't just

turn you into a kung fu badass, the

495

:

gift accentuates and makes you the

best at whatever you are trying to do.

496

:

Xhafer: do.

497

:

Ben: So, for most of our people,

who are just violent psychopaths

498

:

in a post apocalypse, who where

fighting is all you're doing,

499

:

Xhafer: that

500

:

Ben: all you would

conceive of doing with it.

501

:

Yeah.

502

:

But, Minerva, she's educated.

503

:

She's learned the classics.

504

:

And by that I mean, she has

a, uh, novelization of, uh,

505

:

several Star Wars films.

506

:

And so, when her power activated, she had

other ideas of what she could do with it.

507

:

And so, she actually, in a similar vein,

she drew not on the force, but on the

508

:

concept of the force, as written by

many, uh, Star Wars Legends authors.

509

:

Uh,

510

:

Xhafer: heh heh heh.

511

:

heh heh.

512

:

Alright,

513

:

Um, Gaius

514

:

actually checks on Tilda

while Minerva plants bombs.

515

:

Yes.

516

:

Um, and, uh, oh, well.

517

:

So, Minerva, Minerva kills MK.

518

:

Yes.

519

:

Ben: Yes.

520

:

Xhafer: Uh, we find that Tilda

has a pulse but needs a doctor.

521

:

She is not going to survive long.

522

:

The fight at the fort is down to Sonny

and the pilgrim For the moment, Sonny

523

:

gets run through on his own sword.

524

:

Uh, Kanan uses the distraction

to turn on the pilgrim's.

525

:

Suspension.

526

:

Kink,

527

:

Ben: uh, ugh.

528

:

Gross.

529

:

Uh, she hooks 'em

530

:

Xhafer: yums.

531

:

Ben: Don't yuck.

532

:

Someone's yums.

533

:

If you have a suspension kink,

probably you want me yucking your yums

534

:

because it's part of it.

535

:

Xhafer: Not sure if agreeing or you are.

536

:

Kink.

537

:

Yuming.

538

:

Yucking.

539

:

embarrassment kink, Ben.

540

:

Ben: Both!

541

:

Kink

542

:

Xhafer: streams are getting

crossed, I don't know anymore.

543

:

Ben: your

544

:

Xhafer: said, so your kink

545

:

Ben: is getting kinked?

546

:

Xhafer: ding.

547

:

Yeah.

548

:

uh,

549

:

badgi is holding the Pilgrim suspended

in air while Sonny uns stabs himself.

550

:

Bad idea.

551

:

Yeah.

552

:

And kills the Pilgrim.

553

:

Ben: By jumping off of Badgie.

554

:

Xhafer: By jumping off of Badgi.

555

:

He dies in the process.

556

:

His eyes do a glow thing we

have absolutely no context for.

557

:

Ben: Yes.

558

:

Uh, so, uh, Sunny's eyes do a glow thing.

559

:

Mhm.

560

:

And he, he dies in the center

of the Natural History Museum.

561

:

As

562

:

Xhafer: Built into a castle.

563

:

Ben: as, that would be how

my son would want to go out.

564

:

Just die surrounded by dinos.

565

:

You know, what more

could you possibly want?

566

:

Xhafer: Over at the Death Star

Control Room, Minerva plants the

567

:

bombs and gives MK his compass back.

568

:

They blow it up, I guess

no face turn for MK.

569

:

Ben: No.

570

:

Xhafer: Uh, Kanan hosts a

funeral for Sonny with Badgie.

571

:

He says he's gonna raise Henry.

572

:

Guess he didn't get the

memo about Momnerva.

573

:

Ben: Nerva.

574

:

Xhafer: Uh, Sunny is caught

between life and death.

575

:

and is gonna train with the Master while

his body is restoring life to itself.

576

:

Ben: That was the Master.

577

:

Xhafer: That was the Master.

578

:

Okay.

579

:

Ben: I wasn't, I I didn't recognize them.

580

:

We saw them in one

episode, four episodes ago.

581

:

?

Xhafer: yeah.

582

:

Uh, subtitles.

583

:

They said, the first thing

they said was off screen.

584

:

You always get a character name.

585

:

Oh.

586

:

Ben: Ah, okay.

587

:

Xhafer: Uh, we get a

big season 4 setup here.

588

:

Ben: Yeah.

589

:

So during his death, uh, Sonny's

Powers turned on and it is healing him.

590

:

Really hope it is not a funeral

pyre, uh, funeral . Um, yeah.

591

:

Uh, yeah, he, I do think he dies.

592

:

I think

593

:

Xhafer: the the language that's used is,

he has died and it will be coming back.

594

:

And I think that's important specifically

because of when he does fall to

595

:

the ground, he is holding his hands

out like a certain messiah figure.

596

:

Ben: They say his body is healing itself.

597

:

Xhafer: Yeah, his body is

restoring life to itself.

598

:

Ben: I do think he was...

599

:

dead.

600

:

Xhafer: Yeah, yeah, he was dead.

601

:

And, uh, to be perfectly honest,

without season four, he dead.

602

:

Ben: Well, no, because they

set up that he's coming back.

603

:

Xhafer: So, okay, well.

604

:

Ben: You don't meet a space ghost,

or a, uh, a spirit ghost, who

605

:

says, You're coming back because

there's more evils to fight.

606

:

And then they go, Oh

wait, no, oops, sorry.

607

:

You check it out.

608

:

Xhafer: And those more evils...

609

:

Guns?

610

:

Yes.

611

:

Ben: the one really, like,

most petulant, uh, uh,

612

:

Xhafer: uh, what was,

613

:

Ben: What is the name

614

:

Xhafer: for accolade?

615

:

Ben: Acolyte guy, uh, who was...

616

:

Made MK seem, uh, Seem well

thought and put together.

617

:

He found a gun.

618

:

That's not great.

619

:

Xhafer: Yeah.

620

:

And that's the show.

621

:

Ben: Yep.

622

:

So our, our big bad is dead.

623

:

MK is dead.

624

:

Yeah.

625

:

Uh, Sonny is dead.

626

:

Xhafer: Tilda's probably dead.

627

:

We don't,

628

:

Ben: I'm sure she'll get better.

629

:

Xhafer: they seem like they're

pretty far away from help.

630

:

I'm sure it's the kind of thing that they

leave as a plot point for mid season four.

631

:

Ben: Oh, I was thinking it would be, hey,

we were putting this in here in case you

632

:

decide not to come back, uh, but you'll

probably be six month jump, you're fine,

633

:

uh, for the premiere of the next season.

634

:

Xhafer: They do love their

six month jump in this show.

635

:

Ben: Yeah.

636

:

Xhafer: So, All right.

637

:

well, with all of that said...

638

:

Why don't we review our predictions

real quick since there's

639

:

no point in making anymore.

640

:

Ben: All right.

641

:

Xhafer: And then, next week we

will go through a synopsis and see

642

:

how correct or incorrect we were.

643

:

Ben: Alright.

644

:

So for, uh, season one, episode one, I had

daytime Ryder tries to overthrow his dad.

645

:

Evening, Azra is real but it's shitty.

646

:

That seems like it might be true now.

647

:

They kind of destroyed it.

648

:

And primetime, Lydia kills

Quinn and frames Sunny.

649

:

I've

650

:

Xhafer: I've got Nick Frost shows up.

651

:

Uh, Sunny will betray the Baron Quinn

and leave the Red Armadillo camp.

652

:

Uh,

653

:

Azra is an all it's cracked

up to be slash is just as bad

654

:

as the Badlands, if not worse.

655

:

Ben: Okay,

656

:

Xhafer: for

657

:

Ben: Season 2, Episode 1, I have, uh,

Daytime, a Sunny Escapes, in parenthesis,

658

:

from the mine, uh, uh, Evening,

Badgie helps him with the escape, and

659

:

Primetime, Quinn wants to use the Sunny

Veil Baby to get back to being Baron.

660

:

Uh, my daytime, Badgie and Sonny

reconcile, slash, this is their plan all

661

:

along, slash, this ending doesn't matter.

662

:

Xhafer: Uh, where has betrayed the other.

663

:

Ben: like they're

betrayed at the end there.

664

:

Yes.

665

:

One has betrayed the other.

666

:

Xhafer: Uh, my evening is M.

667

:

K.

668

:

's master has the same dark gift

as the rest of it and can just

669

:

use it without going mindless.

670

:

And

671

:

My prime time is M.

672

:

K.

673

:

rescues Sonny.

674

:

Once he gets his shit under control,

that might have happened, but it

675

:

sure didn't while we were watching.

676

:

No, we then go to

677

:

Ben: we then go to season two,

episode five, where I've got daytime,

678

:

uh, Nass and crew Chase, Sonny.

679

:

It does not go well for them.

680

:

uh, I still think that happened.

681

:

We'll find out.

682

:

Xhafer: out.

683

:

Ben: Uh, Evening, Ava chases MK, but

decides to, uh, decides to join him.

684

:

You remember Ava?

685

:

You remember when she was a character?

686

:

Xhafer: Barely.

687

:

Ben: And Primetime,

Quinn leaves Lydia alive.

688

:

The, uh, Waldo finds her after Quinn

leaves the bunker, and they team up.

689

:

Xhafer: Uh,

690

:

my Daytime, NAS shows

up again and gets got.

691

:

My evening, we won't see Amelia

again, which is specifically

692

:

in the episodes we watch.

693

:

Ben: I don't think that mattered.

694

:

I don't

695

:

Xhafer: I don't think I don't

think it mattered, but I, I

696

:

will make the distinction now

as I made when I claimed it.

697

:

Um, in prime time.

698

:

uh, they make it back into the Badlands

before the start of Season three.

699

:

Then we get season 3 episode 1.

700

:

By the start of season 3.

701

:

Ben: We lucked out hitting all

of our season, season premieres.

702

:

That was cool.

703

:

Uh, I got daytime.

704

:

The Pilgrim is the big bad.

705

:

Hey!

706

:

Evening, uh, the finale

is them defending Azra.

707

:

Azra is wherever we are, Ja'far.

708

:

Xhafer: Bullshit,

709

:

Ben.

710

:

Ben: man.

711

:

Azra is in your heart.

712

:

Xhafer: Keep,

713

:

Keep going, you've got more predictions

714

:

to list that actually matter.

715

:

Ben: than the list

716

:

Xhafer: Uh, Badgie ends up as

Tilda's regent as she rules

717

:

the Badlands at the end.

718

:

Uh,

719

:

Daytime, Quinn, not dead.

720

:

And not looking good.

721

:

And that's Season 3, Episode 1.

722

:

So if we find out he dies well

before that, then we know.

723

:

Um, Evening, MK learns the real gift is

the friendship we make along the way.

724

:

Well, I mean, it's not the

friendship we were expecting.

725

:

No,

726

:

Ben: rebar.

727

:

Xhafer: it's the rebar.

728

:

It's the rebar.

729

:

Um, Primetime, Henry will

be in a Kung Fu fight.

730

:

Nope.

731

:

Uh, we didn't see one , that's for sure.

732

:

Ben: Then we get jumped, uh, to

season three, episode seven, where

733

:

I had daytime the boat sinks.

734

:

I, we'd never see, uh, uh, Lily again.

735

:

Uh, I'm guessing they sank that boat.

736

:

. Yeah.

737

:

So my evening prediction, Sunny Sister

becomes Queen of Azra, which can be

738

:

true, uh, Ja'far, if Azra is in your

739

:

Xhafer: heart.

740

:

Ben, we've been over

741

:

Ben: Azra is wherever, is

wherever two people believe.

742

:

Um, and primetime, the widow

sacrifices herself in the finale.

743

:

Xhafer: Daytime, Sunny's Sister shows up.

744

:

Yep.

745

:

Evening, the pilgrim was exiled from Ezra.

746

:

Possibly.

747

:

We'll, We'll see when we read

748

:

Ben: the recap.

749

:

Xhafer: The recap, and then

primetime Tilda dies in the finale.

750

:

Ben: Next we have season three,

episode 14, curse of the Red Rain.

751

:

Xhafer: My daytime

prediction is moon dies.

752

:

My evening is mk face turn.

753

:

Uh, which means he

becomes a good guy again.

754

:

If you're not familiar with,

uh, wrestling pro wrestling

:

terminology and my prime time?

756

:

Sunny Dies.

757

:

Ben: Yep.

758

:

Uh, I had daytime Silver Moon kills

Cressida Evening the widow gets her

759

:

gift back and uses it to heal a dying

Tilda at the cost of her own life.

760

:

Should have stopped about

halfway through that sentence.

761

:

Xhafer: You were so close.

762

:

When Tilda jumped in front of that and

til, and, uh, Minerva got the gift,

763

:

I'm like, oh, Ben fucking called it.

764

:

Yeah.

765

:

I was rooting for you in a way

that wouldn't make me lose our

766

:

game, but would still let you be.

767

:

Correct.

768

:

Ben: If they hadn't, like, if she had

not still been pregnant, maybe they

769

:

would've done that, but like, okay,

she's, we're not going to have the

770

:

pregnant lady die to save somebody.

771

:

Yeah.

772

:

Um, And then primetime, uh, Kanan

shows up out of nowhere to save

773

:

Sunny, and ends up raising Henry.

774

:

Xhafer: Okay.

775

:

Well, she does survive, but she's, like,

fourth on the emergency contact list.

776

:

Ben: weird, because she's the aunt.

777

:

Xhafer: Yeah, but, I mean, she's also a

blood relation that he's known for, like,

778

:

A minute.

779

:

Ben: I mean, yeah,

780

:

Xhafer: Minerva and Guy.

781

:

Minerva and Gais make the most sense

because they're a couple in, a, they're

782

:

Ben: well off

783

:

Xhafer: In a financial position

and also willing parents.

784

:

So those are really the

boxes you want checked.

785

:

I would say more so

than a blood connection.

786

:

But maybe that's just my

bitterness about not being

787

:

Henry's godfather coming out, Ben.

788

:

Yeah, Fair enough, that's bad a call.

789

:

Alright, well with that said, we

will be back next week with our

790

:

synopsis and scoring session.

791

:

For End of the Badlands.

792

:

Ben: we'll read what happened, we'll see

how we did, and then, uh, Ja'far will get

793

:

to pick the next show because he cheats.

794

:

Xhafer: Just throwing it out there now.

795

:

It's one point Ben.

796

:

I'll tell you what, if

I win by one point...

797

:

we'll,

798

:

We'll, go to a coin flip.

799

:

We will go to the old ways and do a coin.

800

:

Flip

801

:

Ben: the coin.

802

:

The

803

:

Xhafer: call.

804

:

Ben: ARA

805

:

.

Xhafer: All right.

806

:

well we'll see you next week, internet.

807

:

But before we get there, we got to make

sure that we say thank you to Ripe.

808

:

Ben: Yeah.

809

:

Xhafer: God.

810

:

Damn Goon Squad is a good song

and you let us use it as our theme

811

:

music and I still feel great.

812

:

Every time I get to throw

that into a fucking edit.

813

:

I love this song.

814

:

You're also an excellent band.

815

:

Find more of their music

wherever you listen to streaming.

816

:

Ben: I listen to it a lot on Spotify,

and they're a fun, uh, YouTube follow

817

:

because they put out videos constantly.

818

:

Xhafer: Yeah, they just dropped

a music video for Brendan, right?

819

:

Yes.

825
