I liked that episode. Didn't love it, but the characters were outstanding here along with the exchanges. Reva being less at the forefront (but lurking in the shadows as an instrument of Vader) helps the dynamic of the show a lot, she was a little more calculating here and not just being reckless and disregarding orders left and right.

Vader is done with love and care (and accuracy) here, and I like that.

And imagining Hayden beneath the suit just adds to it.

Obviously this first run-in is just to whet our appetites. I personally just didn't like the planet/setting it took place on. It would've been cooler in that Hong Kong place.

Just looked like a set out in the Cali desert, same as half the "planets" in Mando/Boba Fett. I'd love a little more variance and space feel to the locations. Perhaps I'm just being picky.

The use of fire for torture was brutal, and a nice touch. Very much what you would imagine from a younger Vader hungry for revenge.
