The Mikey Show hosts continue their 28-hour marathon by providing live, often crude, commentary on *Star Wars: Return of the Jedi*. Co-hosts Eddie, Sean, Rebecca, Skye, and Walter, along with Blunder and Gutenberg, mock various aspects of the film, from C-3PO's impracticality in a forest and the Ewoks' fighting abilities to Luke and Leia's incestuous kiss and Darth Vader's unmasked appearance. They frequently criticize George Lucas's special edition changes and engage in running gags about "the Empire's dental plan" and comparing characters to real-world figures like Donald Trump. The show concludes the movie segment by taking calls from listeners who watched along, before transitioning to the next film in their marathon, *Karate Kid*, and setting up an interview with David Draymond from Disturbed.

What happened, in order

  1. C-3PO's Forest Folly

    The hosts mock the impracticality of C-3PO navigating a forest, comparing it to taking a handicapped person through rough terrain.

  2. Ewoks: Lame or Loveable?

    Eddie expresses strong disdain for Ewoks, while "the girls in the back" (Rebecca) find them cute, leading to crude jokes about their hygiene.

  3. Ewoks "Gang Rape" Joke

    A crude joke about Ewoks leads to one of the female co-hosts, possibly Rebecca, expressing offense for the first time in the movie.

  4. Rebecca's First Star Wars

    The hosts reveal they are in a 28-hour marathon and that Rebecca is watching *Return of the Jedi* for the very first time, noting her unimpressed reaction.

  5. C-3PO as Police Academy Sound Effects

    The hosts compare C-3PO's "magic" over the Ewoks to a sound effects guy from the *Police Academy* movies, prompting Blunder to be called in to laugh.

  6. Luke and Leia's Incestuous Kiss

    The hosts discuss and make crude jokes about the scene where Luke and Leia kiss, knowing they are siblings, with Leia later quipping "Tastes like incest."

  7. The Empire's Dental Plan

    A running gag develops about the Empire having a terrible dental plan, with jokes about bad teeth and retainers in space.

  8. "It's a Trap!" and Lucas's Pets

    The hosts mock Admiral Ackbar's famous line and speculate that George Lucas's creative inspiration for characters like the Ewoks came from his household pets.

  9. Disappointment with Unmasked Vader

    The hosts express strong disappointment and mock the appearance of Darth Vader's unmasked face, comparing it to baby powder and a "vagina on the skull."

  10. Criticism of Lucas's Special Edition Changes

    The hosts voice their disdain for George Lucas's later additions and changes to the movie, especially the cartoon elements and the inclusion of Hayden Christensen at the end.

  11. End of Jedi, Marathon Continues

    The movie concludes, and the hosts celebrate finishing the first film of their 28-hour marathon, immediately transitioning to the next segment.

  12. Listener Calls: Movie Commentary Feedback
