Skeleton Crew Episode 4 Brings Critical Fallout Vibes To The Star Wars Universe

The next accommodates spoilers for “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew” season 1, episode 4, “Cannot Say I Keep in mind No At Attlin.”

As Jod Na Nawood (Jude Regulation) makes an attempt to find At Attlin each to take Wim (Ravi Cabot-Conyers), Fern (Ryan Kiera Armstrong), KB (Kyriana Kratter), and Neel (voiced by Robert Timothy Smith) again dwelling and for his personal functions, the Onyx Cinder lands on a planet that is shockingly related however nonetheless utterly completely different. “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew” season 1, episode 4, “Cannot Say I Keep in mind No At Attlin,” reveals that the eponymous planet is of nice curiosity to different area pirates, too — particularly, SM-33’s (voiced by Nick Frost) mysterious outdated captain, who’s made positive to depart just a few surprises for individuals who try and comply with his footsteps towards the thriller world. For this episode, nonetheless, the motion takes place on At Achrann — a post-apocalyptic, warring model of At Attlin that serves as a surprisingly grim entry within the planet sequence that makes up the so-called Jewels of the Outdated Republic. 

“Skeleton Crew” enjoys paying homage to different initiatives, and At Achrann provides a heaping serving to of “Fallout” to the “Star Wars” present’s total vibe. With At Attlin’s debut, viewers have been launched to a retro-futuristic suburbia that bears similarities to the world of “Fallout” earlier than the nuclear warfare. With At Achrann, we get the “after” a part of the image, and the ravaged planet seems a complete lot just like the wastelands the place nearly all of the “Fallout” franchise’s narrative takes place. The planet’s everlasting state of battle even appears to nod on the “Fallout” property’s well-known logline: “Conflict. Conflict by no means modifications.” 

The attention-grabbing factor concerning the present’s growing “Fallout” vibes is that episode 4 additionally confirms a number of different hidden “jewel” worlds: At Aytuu, At Atrissia, At Aravin, and At Acoda. Since At Attin and At Achrann function just about equivalent areas, it is smart to imagine that the others do, too. Each planets additionally share a creepy “Supervisor’s tower,” which hides attention-grabbing data and serves a mysterious objective.

Contemplating the “Fallout” affect on the 2 Jewels of the Outdated Republic we have seen, it is simple to wonder if the equivalent planets and their ominous Supervisor’s towers are secretly just like the Vaults. In “Fallout,” the Vaults are large nuclear shelters which can be purportedly meant to assist their residents survive via the apocalypse. In actuality, nonetheless, the inhabitants are subjected to all types of merciless checks and (generally actually) inhumane circumstances, that are typically supervised from the Overseer’s workplace. 

Because it stands, this concept makes a stunning quantity of sense. The peaceable, managed At Attlin and the chaotic At Achrann are just about equivalent however their residents are topic to dramatically completely different circumstances, and their Supervisor’s towers appear to serve an identical narrative objective because the Overseer’s places of work do within the Vaults. At Attlin’s fame as a treasure trove may even point out that it is a management “vault” that has been spared from the terrifying fates of different jewels … although, contemplating the unusual bureaucratic dedication the planet has to the so-called Nice Work, it could very nicely be conducting a wierd experiment of its personal. Future episodes of “Skeleton Crew” will reveal what life is like on different Jewels of the Outdated Republic, and we’ll see simply how far down the “Fallout” rabbit gap the present is keen to crawl.

New episodes of “Star Wars: Skeleton Crew” drop Tuesdays at 6 pm PST on Disney+.
