I was also surprised by the lack of any parent scenes on At-Attin. We know there are more to come from the trailers. It would really help the editing of this episode to have a scene or two on At-Attin to fill in the editing gaps.
Which trailers are you referring to? Just curious. The reason why I was insistent on deleting all parent scenes previously is because I wasn’t aware of the potential for this being an actual plot thread later on. Maybe there will be an entire episode entirely focusing on their perspective?
I do have a pretty good idea of what to do, though. We can’t see Neel’s mouth because of his trunk. Replace Neel’s final line in the destroyed house:
“Maybe you shouldn’t be touching that” -> “Let’s go get Yod from the ship”
Then we do the scene with Yod and SM-33. Then go back to the parents (perhaps a scene from a later episode). And then we transition to them entering the Fallen Sanctum. The dialogue here is perfect so the audience isn’t confused:
Yod: “So, who exactly lives here now?”
Neel: “On our planet, this is the Supervisor’s Tower.”
The only problem is that Yod now has their credits and hasn’t given them away. Unless he completely murdered those warriors earlier and didn’t actually give it up.
