Part 8/11:
The "training" of children as potential Jedi or Sith is handled flimsily. The test questions are childish and literal, with no nuance or understanding that the Force and Jedi training involve complex moral and philosophical lessons. The children are portrayed as naive and easily swayed, but the episode offers no insight into this developmental process.
Misguided Parallels and Cultural References
Attempts at humor and pop culture references fall flat or are outright cringe-worthy. The parody of "fellow kids" memes, the superficial sewing analogies, and the forced comparisons to humor from other media only serve to highlight the episode's superficial approach to storytelling. These moments feel out of place and detract from any genuine Star Wars atmosphere.
