    Why would you need to put on a show?

    Well it was a literal show to establish himself as the leader of his little pirate society, so I thought the ridiculous show trial worked. But I also think his motivation to be that sort of leader was a little out of left field.

      Yeah I just didn’t see the need for it except that it was maybe a bit of propaganda? But if you have a weapon of this level of mass destruction, that is all you need to gain “support”.

      Nus Braka falls a bit flat for me. I just don’t get his vision for the universe. Is it anarchy? Does he want to rule? Is it just revenge? No idea. Again, ten episodes is not enough.
