This is some of the best writing I think I’ve ever seen on television. I mean, we’re talking ‘Felina‘ type of good. We’re talking about ‘The Empire Strikes Back‘ good. The way it’s shot, the acting; it’s just, in a word, awesome.
And Harvest, Season 2 episode 3? OMG. You can’t ask for a more picture perfect center piece on feminine power, in my opinion.
First off, you have Bix who is almost raped. She’s fights off her attacker.
Then, you have Dedra, who puts her lover’s mother in her place.
Then, you’ve got Mon Mothma, who just dances to that repetitive, but catchy, tune… Just like she’s going to have to be doing for the rest of the resistance.
Then you’ve got Cinta, who, it’s heavily implied, kills Tay.
So, IMO…
Fight like Bix, argue like Dedra. rebel like Mon Mothma, and kill like Cinta.
Just a chef’s kiss to whoever directed this episode. Thank you.
