Part 5/11:
The children, portrayed as future Sith, are shown being manipulated with simplistic tests that mock their intelligence. These scenes border on the offensive, as the children are expected to fail basic identification questions about spacecraft or space stations, reducing their potential to caricatures of ignorance or evil. The episode seems to imply that evil arises from bad parenting or a lack of a paternal figure, echoing tired tropes about the necessity of male authority, which seems out of place given the setting.
