back again breaking down the season two finale of c episode nine titled rock-a-bye an episode
in which we see all-out war and we'll be talking about who lives who dies my overall thoughts of
the season and what i hope to see in a season three we're breaking it all down here in this
for the review but before we dive into it all make sure you're checking me out on all my other social

once you've seen this season 2 finale episode 9 we got to talk about it your pros your cons
what was your favorite moment of the episode well let's talk more about the season two what was your
favorite episode your favorite character and of course what you all hope to see in a season three
of c on apple tv plus let's talk about it in the comments so just my quick initial thoughts in this
finale i was pretty satisfied now there were some disappointing moments some moments i kind of was
like how the heck did that happen we'll get into it in this breakdown but overall i think it was a
pretty satisfying conclusion it wasn't the best episode by any means i think that was a little
bit earlier in the season but nonetheless the war the battles the blood the guts the the people that
died that we say bye to toad being one of them the rift between hanawa and kofun queen kane
killing paris we're talking about it all i thought it was a really good uh finale edo saying goodbye
and all this stuff and i think it sets up a really interesting season three especially
with baba leaving his family which i never thought i would see so it was some good things some not so
good things but again i really was satisfied with the finale but again let me know your
thoughts on finale and again i'll share my overall thoughts of the season at the end but let me know
your thoughts on the finale this season let's talk about it in the comments so let's break it
all down as we open up with baba vos and crew as they're running from the war not because they're
scared because they're overwhelmed at this point in the episode and things are definitely going
edo's way very early on as they're making their way towards the gate and this is where we see
baba wants hanawan kofun to go back home to one to warn their mom but at pensa but they're like dad
we're right or die we're here to fight for honor we're here to fight side by side with you and
he's just like you guys are idiots but you're my kids and he's proud of them at that moment
they do hold their own which i was very surprised with but we see that they are going to stand up
against their uncle ido and the war is on its way and as i predicted last week i figured that there
was going to be another crew the compass uh bull lions crew was going to come in i thought it was
going to be much later in the episode like very similar to game of thrones battle of the bastards
when the veil came in kind of last minute to take out ramsay but they came nonetheless very early
on the fight and again we have the hidden tribes we have beau lyon as they're going to stand side
by side with babavas in the pinson army and right now they had about a hundred more soldiers which
good for them because they were definitely the numbers were not on their side
and of course we get again the soldiers but we also can't forget that toad is in the building
which we'll talk about told a little bit later in the episode r.i.p to toad but cut back to pensa
as margaret learns of the father of kane's soon-to-be baby is no other than kofun which
they really didn't stress that importance of that like i didn't i don't want to say they
skipped over but i think they kind of knew they just didn't want to reveal it baba i don't know
if baba actually knows that his son is responsible for the birth of this child but nonetheless we see
that margaret is like you're my my future grandson slash nephew will never know who his mother is
and we'll talk about queen kane or should say kane and and wanting to know who the mother of
that child is but she says that she will never let her see the child and you know we see that
kane is just like speaking her stuff as she always do against all eyes she's like hey baby sister
keep that crown warm for me because i swear i'm gonna get it back sooner rather than later she is
she didn't die this episode but she killed one of my favorite characters and she has to die after
what she did in this episode but going back to the war baba gives this really good speech again
the speeches in his family whether it be our new queen magura now baba they really get things hyped
up as he gets the troops rallied up and wants the gates to be open and when he says his line
let's welcome them to hell i was ready to fight i was ready to get a sword and go to war because
baba got me hyped really great moment there but speaking a great moment the action ladies and
gentlemen it's been some weeks i know there's some people are like oh that there's no action
it's uh boring neither here you know i know people can have their own rights to their opinion
i'm okay with the lack of action of season two because we got more character development more
stakes you know there was some great dialogue some really quiet moments but all that aside we
finally get some incredible action and the action was so incredible in this season finale as baba
chops off someone's face the killings begin the arrows are raining fire we see hanawa
taking out soldiers left and right and then things are looking pretty good for our team they have the
advantage but ito his little sighted boy they stepped in he gives them the direction of where
to take people out and we see just this literally blood fest going on it's just straight up carnage
and i love love love love the booby traps this is like home alone uh rated r home alone as we see
baba and the witch finder as they're setting the soldiers up to kind of follow them and
they have the this again the the crane when it comes out and wipes out all the people
they have the great hand-to-hand combat fights and then like everyone had a moment of shine we
see bow line we see toe we see hanawa we see kofun of course baba we see june i mean everyone's doing
their thing holding their own and it's just like i'm just like stuck to the tv screen just in all
of all the action going on meanwhile we see the booby traps come in more in place as they set
up their like oil and fire they're burning people alive it's just i'm just like this is so amazing
i'm having such a good time this episode but i'm just like sooner rather than later one of
my favorite characters will be biting the dust and we'll talk about that in a second here but we see
let's talk about kofun i know a lot of people are done with him they hate him and hey i was in
the same boat with you all from all the season one and half of this season but kofun finally steps up
ladies and gentlemen as he takes out that little boy but unfortunately we have to say goodbye to
one of my favorite new additions to this season too and that is towed as he stabbed unfortunately
finding one of the guys almost you know i think he was if i'm not mistaken he took a stab for kofun
he pretty much as i predicted uh weeks ago that he was gonna have to he was gonna probably die
protecting kofun which he does which is something that paris wanted him to do was speaking of paris
he tells kofun just tell her he's like tell her what she'll know exactly what i mean in
that moment and he tells him by the way go kill somebody great way to go out again shout out to
that actor who plays toad this is really my first time being exposed to him he was incredible i do
wish that he was part of season three but i know he's on a hbo show by the name of warrior and i
hear he's great in that and i hear he's great in everything that he's in so again shout out to the
actor toe was one of my favorite characters this year and uh what a way to go out and again go kill
some people kofun as he trained kofun you know he was the you know obi-wan kenobi of his swords to
darth vader as i said many times with kofun going down that dark path but again a great moment for
that character but let's get back to it as we get more of these booby traps by baba voss as he
sets up a booby trap with the ice and all the soldiers go down and this is where some of my
criticism comes in and i guess i have to suspend my disbelief but i'm like hold on
weren't they surprised of ido's visit and kind of the war started a little bit earlier
because my thing is like when did they set up these booby traps when did baba talk to bo lion in
uh hidden tribes about all the booby traps like when they have they don't have cell phones they
don't have i don't see ravens going out about planning i was just like this is like almost
a little bit too easy a little bit too convenient that all these traps are playing out because there
was no communication prior to this fight but hey that's just me i guess nitpicking because there's
really not that much to kind of criticize until a little bit later in the episode but i'm just
like hey whatever it is i love the booby traps but i'm just like who communicated this wouldn't they
have time to set all this up but neither you know there they take out the soldiers with the ice and
if i water and they pick a little bit and i'm gonna i don't want to be that guy but i'm like
when they were so when they were fighting they were all like really close corners i'm like how
they're they're blind how are they able to know who's on their side who's not on their
side because they literally are like so close to each other they can't see who's i know they have
their they have their heightened senses they can smell people this and the other but i'm like how
are they able to distinguish the good from the bad again i'm just nitpicking but let's go back
to this awesome fight as we see at this point ring goes down in the water for a brief second
i thought they were going to kill ren as edo calls her out she doesn't respond because of course you
know he loves her he respects her that's his daughter of a sense right but she rises from
the water and this is where hanawa finds her and releases her from her imprisonment and we'll talk
to them having their goodbyes here in a second but back to the moment me and you and every one
of the sea fans i've been waiting for round two or maybe round three we can say between
big brother little brother round three of baba vaz and ito and it is not disappointing the hand and
i love that they put their swords aside brother brother fight hand-to-hand combat was incredible
as they're going back and forth i mean my manito is tossing bob on the side of the bridge cracking
his back like batman and baba hitting him left and right taking out his knee again that fight
was incredible it was worth the wait but we see baba ultimately gets the upper hand
his brother takes his sword stabs him like no you cannot kill babavas he's okay but he takes that
sword has to kill his own brother he didn't want to but he had to very similar to khalil having
killed zod he had to kill uh you know his brother because his brother was going to wreck shop if he
kept him alive but neither him or there we get the moment between the two brothers as he like
said he stabs ido and ido can't go back to his homeland undefeated and they're not enemies at
this moment they're brothers as he says you know the truth that my father did our father you know
tell you to kill me he says yes and we say goodbye to edo which quick moment here i'm a big fan of
dave batista seeing his career from wrestling to transition to movies drax and you know working
with denim villeneuve with blade running 2049 doing some comedies you know and obviously working
on dune and many other things knives out too what a career so far what a great character edo
i was hoping they kept him alive but i know he's a very very very very busy man as i just mentioned
but i thought it was great there were some moments in the season where i thought that he was just
kind of almost hidden uh which again he has a very busy schedule but i wish he was a little
bit more involved kind of in the middle of the season where we just kind of like checked in on
him every now and then but neither here nor there what a great character what a great performance by
dave patis's ido and a really good moment between those two brothers as they say their goodbyes to
one another but going back to goodbyes we see that ren and hanawa have to say their goodbyes
uh just for now i believe they will come back to each other in season three but they do say their
goodbyes from now but here is the moment that i've been talking about for a couple weeks ago which is
kofun entering that dark side as him and his sister have a little bit of a a scuffle of a
sense verbal scuffle as we see that hanawa has let ringo he's like why did you let her go is
he just letting all the sighted people go you let the kid go you're taking care of him what does
that mean she's like you're you're they're your people who am i i'm your people i'm your brother
i'm your blood and she's she just walks away so i think that's sign one of many signs that we got
in the season that kofun will be on the dark side kofun and his queen his queen kane will be working
together and i'm gonna say it now season three get ready for hanawa and kofun fighting each other to
the death you heard it here first but yeah we wrap things up and again this i'm like hold on
how much time is up this episode we had 17 minutes and this is a little bit more of my criticism
i feel like those last 15 17 15 minutes was a little bit it kind of over welcomed this day
and i'll kind of refer to what i mean by that first off we have this sex scene which i didn't
think was necessary to have which you know you know margaret and obama they they haven't had it
you know sex this whole season but i'm just like did we really need that but we needed this scene
because they finally have a discussion about their children being warriors no longer being kids and
this is big because this is where baba says they don't need me anymore which leads to his decision
at the end of this episode but she's like oh they need you more than ever so this kind of shows you
he feels like he's not needed he doesn't feel like he's welcome he doesn't feel at home at pensa so
this is just kind of the the first inkling that he's going to leave his family which he ultimately
does at the end of this episode but we go to a very interesting moment where our new queen magra
is giving the witch finders they're taking away their titles they're making them you know warriors
now they're making them royal guards and june is their leader of course but we see i believe 22
of them leave because they don't believe in this new philosophy they believe in the old way so this
is going to be really interesting to see those witch finders going against you know another war
which is probably going to be something to look forward to in season three but speaking of june
he's tired he's been doing this for 20 years he's kind of worn out and again i feel like
again kind of a weird situation when he's talking to margaret he's like okay i'm going gonna leave
she's like i need you well okay i think about it it was just kind of a weird conversation dialogue
between those two but again he's gonna reconsider it i assume he's gonna be serving the queen
for future seasons uh and go against those wish finders that didn't want to be a part of this new
regime but we talked about kofun as he's listening to his uh uh auntie slash lover singing a song and
then she's still in his head i'm telling you all she's gonna get in his head he's gonna be the one
that's gonna release her and he's gonna be the one that's gonna be fighting his sister and maybe even
taking out his mom come next season he's gonna be the big bad i think not big bad but he's gonna be
a pivotal character in season three and he's gonna probably be a character that
we're gonna hate even more for some people out there but cut to jeremiah's son who is working
with a crane bombs and again this is just setting the seats for season three
uh as we end the episode with baba voss something i never would have saw coming kissing his family
goodbye because he does not feel at home at pensa i don't know where he's going exactly but
he ain't going to be staying in pensa so bob was on this quest of finding home or finding
something of peace and i would imagine his kids and his family going to go looking for him and
we'll see what comes that comes season three but we have one more scene to break down and that
is paris checking on kane and the baby as kane wants her to
take care of kofun and of course you know she says i'm of course i'm gonna take care of fufun
as it's all part of a ruse she just distracts paris slits her throat killing paris and she
tells paris that she's dying on her own blood i would rather kill this baby then have you all
take this baby away from me as she's singing rock-a-bye and that is the last scene wow
kane he couldn't gotten worse the cersei of this show has killed one of my favorite characters
paris who again and i i guess when you don't see the body but she's slither throat she's dead right
who knows they can do something different and say that someone saved her or whatever she has
intuition she can maybe heal herself who knows but i'm pretty i'm safe to assume that paris
is dead that she will not be making a return in season three and if that is the case what a
great actress i've always loved her um i love the character paris and this is gonna mean a lot again
will that get kofun closer to kade after killing someone that's so close to him i don't want's
gonna want to kill her right away but that is a huge moment for that character to be killed by the
hands of kane but let's talk about the or again i thought the caesar family was was satisfied again
i love the action i love the booby traps i love the moments between true brothers the goodbyes
for our characters you know rp to paris are paid to toad the two lovers who who didn't ultimately
get time to spin in love with each other uh but again i felt like the war stuff felt a little bit
too convenient when they have time to set up the booby traps that's just me nitpicking and then the
sighted you know the blind people being able to know who's the good guy and bad guy with such
close quarters but again those are nitpicks but i do feel like the last like 15 minutes were just
a little it almost felt it like it was just too there were good moments but just like it was like
it overwhelmed this day i thought they could have maybe took out some of those moments uh to flesh
things out harlan of course is still alive which is great because i'm really looking forward to
seeing him in season three but overall thoughts of the season two i think and i'm a big fan of season
one i think season two was way superior than season one i thought the writing was stronger the
character development was stronger the pacing was great the world building was fantastic the acting
was heightened to me uh the character focus again i know some people weren't the biggest fans of the
lack of action but i was okay with the lack of action even though i loved the heads splitting
off and bob was putting people's swords in their mouths and splitting their asses open i mean
bob was incredible don't get me wrong but i just thought that the richness in the characters the
slow burn that time the quieter moments the the those moments really stood out to me and i can't
stress enough the new editions of characters like toad charlotte who's one of my favorites i'm so
glad she survived and hopefully we get more of her in season three the addition of the compass uh you
know harlan idol of course wren i really enjoyed the new characters of this season and i thought
that this season like i said in my opinion this isn't a disc on season one i think season two is
way more superior than season one and like i said it all boils down to all the stuff at this mention
and i can't wait to see maybe season three will have that perfect balance which i'm okay with the
lack of action but i think season three will have just as much action as season one and two combined
just as much character development with addition of new characters with addition of more world
building for a season three which i think season three german will son you know uh kofun queen kane
the baby mongres the queen the witch fighters that didn't want to be a part of this new regime all
that stuff is going to shape up for an incredible season three and i think on the trajectory of this
show i can see this going for another two or three seasons maybe five at the max but i can
see them maybe definitely doing a season four and five being like the absolute finale because jason
momoa is a very busy person as well obviously aquaman and all the other stuff he's doing but
neither here are there season three can't wait for it season two was fantastic but that's just
my thoughts i want to know yours your pros and cons of the finale your favorite moments of the
finale who was ultimately your favorite character in season two new or old and of course what do
you hope to see in a season three of c on apple tv plus let's talk about in the comments below
