Bazil is just a guy. They refer to him as such multiple times later.

He also just looks like a hamster, wears clothes, and doesn’t speak english. It’s not really that deep. He’s not out here yelling about his pronouns.

Exactly. The only way the twins would have all the features of the black human “mother” and none of the features of their pale redhead Zabrek mother is of they somehow fertilized the back human’s eggs then implanted them in the pale Zabrek woman’s womb. Then it’s not a matter of the twins being created by the Force (I refuse to call it the string) but instead a simple matter of IVF. That’s the only way the twins should look like the black witch instead of the Zabrek witch.

this show would have been 15% better if they just cut that weird chant out in episode 3.



This show would be better if it actually followed through on its premise and be a murder mystery/political thriller featuring the Sith. The show should be more like the last 2 minutes of the 4th episode. The lead up with the music and Sol slowly turning and we see the Sith floating down was legit kind of creepy. And then his movements. It was ominous and cool. Too bad the other 3 hours worth of show are nothing like that last two minutes.

But before that’s it’s completely ruined by dog shite writing. Mae completely turning a 180 from wanting revenge to only wanting her sister after half an episode was hilarious and then boasting how the Sith wouldn’t catch her in time then her showing up to see Kelnacca dead. That’s some CW show type shite.

Here is another thing I don’t understand. This Zabrek woman is the mother of the twins, I mean the real mother as she grew them in her body and birthed them. But yet, they have zero of her Zabrek features. WTF?!?


Crossbred Zabrak don’t have horns. Pretty sure that was the previous legends explanation for the Dathomiri, which are currently just classed as a Zabrak subspecies. I think with Ahsoka’s revelation that the witches are from outside of the galaxy, the crossbred thing could come back into play.

I do not think that is the case here though.

I do not think the Zabrak woman is genetically related to them. She is simply a surrogate. Mother Aniseya says SHE created them. The girls only refer to Aniseya as “Mom.” And the girls use Aniseya as their last name.

i feel like you’re saying that with very little knowledge of how it actually happened.

Right because the force, even thought its been perverted beyond recognition, doesn’t manifest itself in that way. A simple example would be that when someone force hits someone else it doesn’t leave a handprint.

I honestly agree with you 100%. I said earlier in the thread that it’s a “mystery” show and i have no idea what the mystery is supposed to be because they keep telling us.

At this point the only mystery to me is how they all end up dying.

Sorry, did I miss that being established in the show? Genuine question. It’s definitely not a show that beats the second screen issue.

1. How did the coven die. definitly not in the fire

2. Who is the sith

but honestly just not knowing something isn’t a mystery. no one is actively investigating these things. They just show us.

That Queen witch impregnated the Zardak woman with the force? You missed that part?

I feel your pain. I waited in line 8 hours to see Phantom menace first screening and I was so let down my Fandom crashed. In the 80s and 90s I was a huge star wars beers. I used to read every book that came out

I got it. they just didn’t discuss genetic material or how it works or anything like that.

That would be a good twist because he seems so unlikely to have power.

I was born in 1990 so for the first 9 years of my life I had this neat little trilogy that was awesome and i loved, and I had awesome toys from it.

Then I got so hyped for Phantom Menace and even then I was disappointed.’I was the target audience and I was like Meh. Best thing to come out of that movie was now I knew who the hottest jewish woman on earth was.

thats why I get so annoyed when people talk about Disney destroying star wars. Jar Jar Binks and midichlorians didn’t already ruin it? They loved Anakin hating sand?

Pretty simple, physically the queen witch wasn’t involved in their internal development in any way. She’s just a jumper cable.

but that wouldn’t determine who the kids look like. If the Queen used the force to put her generic material or whatever inside the horned chick then the kids will look like the queen

and listen I have no idea how it works. they haven’t told us. I just know the outcome.

if 2 black parents used a white surrogate that baby is going to be black

So you think the Queen manifested her own sperm by using the force? Lol sorry for laughing but that’s just no true.
