let's break down this six episodes together ladies and gentlemen let's talk about the three different
stories that we got here in episode six which was your favorite out of three which was your least
favorite let's talk about pros cons and of course your thoughts and theories for the weeks ahead
in the comments below so just briefly just my initial thoughts on this episode without getting
too deep into it before we break it all down all pun intended i wasn't necessarily over the moon
about this episode it had its moments like the stuff on terminus and pharah and seeing her plans
come to fruition has been intriguing the the death of solar's dad didn't really hit me emotionally
which we'll talk about in this review brother dom brother dusk him being a man him obviously being
different from his brothers is interesting but not all that compelling so far especially this love
thing that he has with the gardener but listen lee pace is my guy he's been my favorite character
through the show so far his interactions with daryl mizzell his interactions with the leviathans
that stuff is very compelling but again it had its highs it has its lows we're gonna break it
down but again let me know your thoughts in the comments below as we open up the episode
with brother day the emperor traveling to the sarah system to meet halima as we know that she
is the one that's kind of challenging the emperor in regards to who's going to be the next proxima
but it's on his journey and i love this stuff here that he's talking to daryl mizelle as she's giving
him the history lesson of the leviathans as as we learn as an audience they have the the lore
the mythology of the three goddesses and the three moons and that the maiden is the only one that's
being inhabited i love all this world building i love the mythology in this world i want to learn
more i want to learn more about this religion i want to learn more about the levations especially
after coming off of dune it looks like arrakis so i'm loving all that stuff here and i want to focus
as we talk about this uh review here focus a little bit on what's going on this planet
first and foremost as i mentioned lee pace is phenomenal but his interactions with deremozel
i love that character so much she's the last of her kind i love the intellect that she has
i love that we get a conversation about her purpose her faith and just how much she cares and
i think she's going to be such a pivotal character for not only this season but the seasons ahead but
i think she's going to be the only one that's going to try to attempt to keep these brothers
together because we're seeing each and every week they're so much different than one another
and this is this might be the cleon cycle that might break the empire but we'll get into that a
little bit later but again i love deriselle i love emperor day and their conversations at hand but
speaking of conversations at hand it is time for the emperor to meet halima as we see that she has
her tradition the violence have the tradition in welcoming someone with this drink we see that she
has good intentions but the emperor does not take pace in this tradition and i just love and really
enjoy the tension the the lack of trust that these two have and i love this first interaction between
these two characters and i and i can't wait to see what the rest of this show has to offer with
those two characters because there's obviously a rift in some discomfort between the two as we see
the emperor does not want halima in that spot but he's he appoints steph ur goloth
despite the people wanting helium in his position and he promises to give them clean
water for the rest of his reign as we see it later on halima gets the opportunity to speak
at the proxima's funeral and it's in this moment that you clearly can see the lethiathans want her
as the next proxima she lifts the people she gives them spirits she gives them hope but that doesn't
please the emperor as again he wants the the young lady to be the next proxima but the people have
their champion they have their leader in place so it's going to be really interesting to see this
dichotomy and this politics and everything about the power and who's in power who's not in power
very interesting stuff and again lee pace when he's upset we all know what he did in episode
two so if i'm uh you know halima i'm walking pretty tightly on that rope to not piss him off
but again i really thought that all that stuff on that planet made him was really interesting but i
gotta admit guys this was my least favorite part of the episode out of three stories
this one was the weakest as we go to brother don and his love story which didn't have that much to
do at the beginning episode because we're spending most of his story with him and his older brother
dusk as they are hunting and the goal that brother dusk has for his younger brother is to have him
become a man as he wants him to go on the hunt as he wants him to you know indulge in some sexual
behaviors which we see that he doesn't want to do that but it is important to note that as brother
dusk is trying to get him on the same path as we know the tradition of the cleon but this brother
don is much different than his other brothers we'll talk about his big secret in a little bit
here but it it was interesting to see brother dawn hide his hunts that he got six he killed six of
those creatures and he didn't want his brother to be upset he's smart he's playing the field smartly
he is again i didn't like the storyline but i like where it's going it's a little bit slow for
my taste but he doesn't want to set the course too far off he wants them to think that he's online in
the clions he's doing the things that his other brothers have done generations before him but
he's a lot different than his other brothers which brings us to again the stuff that's really not
working for me quite yet and i think it's just a matter of chemistry i don't think the two actors
are really working for me in regards to the love interest between brother dawn and this gardener
as we see and and plus two the placement of this scene felt weird as we'll talk a little bit later
about salvar's dad dying but we we go from a death scene to this scene of brother dawn talking to the
gardener he shares a i guess a big secret with her and it is a big big secret because he isn't the
same like his other brothers he's colorblind which is like a they're perfectly made but he has some
deficiencies he has some you know imperfections which is again makes him so much different than
his other brothers he shares that with her she's like well you can just kill me if you don't if you
don't trust me and he ultimately does trust her and they kiss and we talked about this what two
episodes ago gardner who saw a brother dawn jump out of the window by the name of azera as she is
giving him a gift and it's a leaf that's gonna heal him and you can obviously see and i've seen
enough tv shows and movies and no they're gonna have romance this azerite character and brother
day will have this romance and i can just see this clone who doesn't have a soul falling in love with
this human girl and how that's going to cause conflict with them amongst the brothers as well
and maybe they're going to probably have that as her character be killed or have the shadow master
kill her i can see those stories that love story was obviously the angle the show's going to go but
interesting enough we see the shadow master finds out about those three other ducks or
three other creatures that he killed and i think that's going to be just setting the stage for
brother dawn and this gardener lover he's going to want to fall in love with her remember they don't
have souls but he's going to fall in love with her and brother dusk the shadow master are going
to want her killed it's going to end up putting a rift between the brothers and the emperor and
the whole empire is going to probably crumble from within because of love and this is the
theme of this episode as we see cellar's dad he joined the foundation because of love and we see
hugo and salvar their love so there's a lot of love going on we know sometimes love can clout
your judgment so again i thought that the brother dawn stuff was the weakest element of the episode
it had points and has things that's gonna lead towards future things but i just don't think the
execution has been working for me entirely quite yet but let me know again what was your favorite
least favorite stories out of the three as we wrap up with which i think was the most like action
entertaining element of this episode and that's all the stuff that we got on terminus as we see
that the commander from the emperor ship is still alive but pharah's like he's valuable we're gonna
need him for as she's really setting and creating this hostage situation for she can get on this
planet destroyer ship as we'll talk about here in this breakdown but it's fair man
she's really doing some good stuff for me i'm really enjoying like i mentioned when we first
met her she reminds me of like game of thrones death rocky just her passion her hatred towards
the empire as her mission continues to move on as she's gathering important people on terminus to
go on this next mission to go on to what she needs to go through on her plans meanwhile and this was
a this was a little bit silly to me the anakrians have been presented to us as like formidable you
know fighters warriors but yet they're able to be taken down by two children i thought that seemed
a little bit too over the top for me i it wasn't believable believable i didn't really enjoy that
scene but nonetheless we see the boys take salvar and they tell her that pharaoh's plans is to find
this ghost ship and this is where we kind of get the the play into motion all the emotional beats
of this episode which didn't really work for me but we see that hugo is still alive
as well as salvar's dad and their plan is to take out these planet destroying ships as we see they
make their way to the ships but unfortunately salvara goes into this mind slip as he hugo calls
it but it's a pretty important mind slip vision dream sequence as you may as she goes back to the
time in which we do see and i guess this answered my question from last week is harry really dead
yeah he is dead as we see him talking to his son rish as he talks about you falling in love with
gail is putting all of my plans into jeopardy so you have to take me out i don't want you seeing
her i don't want you saying goodbye to her as we know that he did so it's it and why i don't again
the book readers probably know but i don't know why he can't love gal and why he had to kill harry
i guess obviously time will tell but i guess that does solidify that he is dead but what is this
hologram that we saw last week again i'm really intrigued to see is harry alive or dead but right
now i guess the show is telling us that he is dead but i guess we'll find out in the weeks ahead but
going back to it she snaps out of this vision dream like sequence only to find that her father
dies he sacrifices himself to blow up the ships that pharaoh would have needed to take out
you know and go through in her mission which i'll be honest with you all i didn't feel the emotion i
didn't feel that death i didn't feel the weight obviously there were states there but i don't
think the show established it enough at least for me to see that father and daughter relationship i
i should have felt that i i should have felt the emotion i should have been crying with salvar but
i just felt like the the moment wasn't rich enough i feel like the moment was actually kind of rushed
because as i mentioned earlier we go from that moment which felt like 10 seconds of his death and
then we go to this whole love story with brother dawn so i thought the placement of the death
didn't work i feel like the emotions didn't work and i wish it i wish i would have resonated with
that scene more let me know if you guys got emotional with that scene but i'll just be
honest i didn't feel like the execution was all that great which brings us to kind of the final
moments of the episode as we see hugo reprograms the ship that they need to go on this mission and
he puts salvar in control which fair is obviously upset about this but she has to rely on hugo's
navigation and rely on the chosen people that she has to go on this mission wrapping everything up
here we see that salvar tells her mother what happened to their dad she really doesn't have a
moment to process it which again i didn't feel like the death was really earned i don't feel
like it was executed properly but they are and the weight of his desk i just didn't feel it there but
they are on their way to enter the four belt to go on pharah's mission so again the terminus
stuff had action you know had the interesting reveal revolving around harry and all that stuff
but again i felt that the emotion shouldn't have should have been there i did not feel the weight
of salvar's dad i am intrigued to see this mission but i wish it was just a little bit more emotional
i mentioned to you all the stuff with brother dawn and the love interest that he has isn't
working for me at all so far i see where the show's going with that with the shadow master
with brother dusk but right now that whole subplot is one of the weakest so far but again lee pace
as the emperor and deremizell and everything with lima that stuff is very intriguing and to
see that back and forth that pull and tug will be interesting to see moving forward so again
some highs some lows but that's just my thoughts let me know your thoughts in the comment section
what do you hope to see in the seventh episode will we see the continuation of that is harry
alive and how will you know gail play into the main plot and will she ever come across the
other main characters what will happen with the emperor what will happen with the other brothers
