Afterthree episodes ofStar Wars: Skeleton Crew, its pretty clear who the breakout character is.
Its Neel,the adorable blue elephant with the precious hairand aw-shucks charm.
And, like clockwork, it was time to put the character front and center in the fourth episode.
Young love is in the air with Neel and Hayna on Skeleton Crew.Lucasfilm
An excellent, jam-packed, adventurous episode that madeStar Warshistory.
So, I guess, its the first time Oscar-winning directors did aStar WarsDisney+ show.
The Troik treat kids like adults, so the General wants to train the crew for battle.

But Neel isnt having it.
If it was me, Id just say I was sorry, Neel says.
But thats probably cause I get too scared.

We know Hayna heart melts in that moment, because ours does too.
Thats when, out of nowhere, comes Jod.
The good deed allows him to rescue the kids and continue their journey.
A journey thats now reached a standstill.
Before they can go though, Neel asks Hayna if she wants to come with them.
She cant, she says shell never forget him and gives him a little kiss.
Even through the blue skin, you might see Neel is blushing.
Those have been somehow destroyed and, turns out, it was 33 who did it.
And, we know they got there, at least, because thats where the ship was stranded.
One, 33 expands into a much bigger, more intimidating droid.
The latestSkeleton Crewwas a perfect, quick, Star Warsadventure.
Heres hoping we havent seen the last of the Troikespecially Hayna, for Neels sake.
