Skeleton Crew gives Star Wars its best, most poignant disability representation yet in season 1's sixth episode
slows down in its sixth episode so its titular crew can face hard truths, learn lessons, and come together as a proper team. This is classicat its most basic—a ragtag crew of misfits learning to become a crew and forming a little found family. It’s the basis for the original trilogy, sequel trilogy,video games. It works like gangbusters every time, but there’s something about seeing it happen with a group of kids that feels unique and also obvious.
After the trap door on Rennod’s secret lair safely sends the kids out on the side of the mountain, they have to quickly figure out how to get back on their ship and beat Jod to At Attin. Thankfully, KB has the coordinates. Rather than this realization giving the team momentum, things quickly take a turn toward infighting when Fern suggests they all climb a dangerous cliff and refuses to listen to KB’s insistence that it’s not possible.
It turns out that KB’s warnings last episode about the steam from the spa being dangerous to her augmentations were not unfounded, because as soon as the group splits up and KB decides to follow Wim—whose gut feeling gave him absolute certainty that a group of trash crabs aregoing to lead them to help—the corrosion in her augmentations leads to near total system shutdown.
What about Jod, you may ask? Well, while the kids were turning into a proper crew, Jod/Silvo/Jack goes through a “Zero Friends Again” moment. Awaiting sentencing by Brutus, who apparently survived along with Gunter, Jod is given the opportunity to make his final appeal as per the Pirate’s Code on board Brutus’ ship. He then goes on to pull his best charming scoundrel face and deliver a speech about how he promises to give the biggest treasure in the galaxy to the crew.
• Jod sings a pirate shanty about Captain Rennod, and it’s one of the coolest things to ever happen to• Part of what makes the At Attin mystery so compelling is how little of the planet we see. We get just enough to be aware that things are happening, that the parents are trying to reach their kids, but not enough that we figure out the bigger mystery ourselves
