Star Wars: Resistance, “Dangerous Business”, Review!

The title is confusing, does this hint at the Tom Cruise movie Risky Business (1983)?, if so a poor connection to an adult comedy.  Some bird creature flies to Colossus Base, the openings are getting repetitive, why not start with all of the aliens in the market and shift to the Fireball crew?  Yeager checks on the status of the ship.  Tam and Neeku find that Kaz has updated all of the parts and Tam thanks him.  He has a deal to watch over Flix and Orka’s shop in exchange for parts.  Kaz heads off with BB-8.  The shop owners are about to leave.  They need to visit Flix’s mother.  He is joined by a customer who wants premium oil.  Kaz has his fingers bitten by the pet Gorg he names Bitey, he stumbles around, and BB-8 finds it.  Another alien customer is there, Teroj Kee (John Ennis), and wants a phase connector.  Kee is a Keteerian alien, seen in Last Jedi, he has a modified head of the chef alien, Dexter Jettster, with teeth, and fappy ears.   Kaz checks and finds one already sold in the back.  Bitey, the pet gorg, bites Kee so Kaz takes his demands for parts.  He says he wants all of the parts delivered to his storage locker in Dock 23, D-23?  So the spy angle is dropped?  This is just about the wacky adventures of Kaz?  

STAR WARS: RESISTANCE -- “Dangerous Business”  -- Disney/Lucasfilm. 

All of the parts are on a hover lift and Kaz moves it over as BB-8 watches the store.  Kee has Kaz covered with a blaster and locks him in the container.  He orders a worker to drop the container in the water.  Kaz contacts BB-8 who is busy with the gorg Bitey.  BB-8 heads over to the Docking Bay and sees Kee blast open a door to get a phase connector.  The worker has the container moved and BB- zaps Kee to roll away at his attacks.  Kee tips over a metal shelf to trap BB-8.  Kaz finds a blow torch and also a lens which he uses to cut open the door and the container falls.  The worker finds Kaz is hanging to the crane arm.  He drops down and BB-8 explains that Kee took the phase connector.  Kaz follows the alien to a ship where he brings in the phase connector.  He then sees stormtroopers pass.  Kaz tries to move the phase connector, but again is bitten by the gorg.  The stormtroopers order Kee to launch.   

The ship with the containers starts to leave Colossus Base.  Kaz sneaks past the stormtrooper with Bitey.  He tempts Bitey and the gorg leaps at the controls.  It sends the ship toward the ocean.  Kaz escapes the chaos of the crash, but Bitey is lost.  He takes an escape pod and leaves behind the crashed ship.  Bitey climbs on the escape pod window.  Via hologram, Taraj meets with Commander Pyre.  Kaz returns to see the mess Kee made trapping BB-8.  Flix and Orka return.  Orka likes Kaz’s solution to taking care of Teroj Kee.  They explain that a phase connector is used to break up asteroids for mining. This hints at Starkiller Base, but it seems like a confusing name why not vacuum shifter?  If there is such a powerful device, why not use it against capital ships? or take out shielded bases?  It is all a strain to keep this thread going with a wandering story.  

Two Lightsabers out of Five!
