Finally watched this episode and that was the best part hands down.
Either I’m a really bad lip-reader, or Thrawn makes it difficult to read lips on purpose. I’ve seen this gif a hundred times already, and I’m…a little disappointed he wasn’t saying “Lost, Bridger?” 😛
OMG YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT.
Which is be so totally better and I bet if Thrawn said that he’s like mentally congratulating himself on his wit and I can just see him calling Eli later being like ‘And then that Jedi kid showed up, and he was just laying there and said hey to me, and I was like “lost, Bridger?” and it was witty.” And to that Eli is just like “Yeah, witty, but… get back to the part about the ship being stolen????
or “get back to the part where you play chicken with the stolen tie fighter?!?”
More like “YOU WERE PLAYING CHICKEN WITH THE STOLEN TIE FIGHTER ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR KRIFFING CHISS SKULL!?!?!?”
“But the aesthetic was very impressive.”
“It was an otherwise boring day, Commander. Though it wasn’t a total loss…we did get a flight demonstration out of it anyway.”
“DON’T CHANGE THE SUBJECT ON ME. WHAT. WERE. YOU. DOING. STANDING. THERE. SHOOTING. AT. A. TIE. FIGHTER?!?! You know you couldn’t have done nothing to damage it!”
“I’m sure at the very least, my poise in the face of such odds would have intimidated the enemy.”
Eli “…….” *holding head in hand, shaking head in frustration.
