Whether you are a bookworm, a movie buff, or both, grab your bookmark, grab your popcorn, and let's watch some books.
Exploring 'The Rise and Fall of Sanctuary Moon'
00:00:50
Speaker
All right. So this episode I want to discuss the characters or the actors who played in the rise and fall of Sanctuary Moon, the in-universe TV show that Murderbot is so fond of.
00:01:03
Speaker
It kind of feels like Star Trek to me in a lot of ways or like something like that. And I really love that. It was definitely a Star Trek spoof. Yeah. And so that's been a lot of fun. and He's apparently got thousands of episodes of it downloaded. and that sounds like Star Trek too.
00:01:17
Speaker
Yeah. um You got ah John Cho playing ah Captain Hosian, the leader there. And that was like, I recognize that person at first when it popped up. like It starts with that as the visual before you ever get to the show. You're like, I recognize this person. what is What's going on here? This isn't who I expected. And he was awesome in that role.
00:01:39
Speaker
um We got the navigation officer, Hussain. Skalunch which is a Jack McBriar I don't know that I know that person but it was another a lot of them were faces I recognized enough to be like he's Fix-It Felix from Wreck-It Ralph oh so the voice I would have recognized more than yeah the face possibly I was like you're just playing Fix-It Felix again which is great because you nailed that like yeah he was fun That is fun. And then the gold star of the whole group, Clark Gregg, already our sci-fi ah love because of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Character Performances and Cameos
00:02:20
Speaker
and the Avengers and everything, played luke Lieutenant Kolovar. Kolovar? Kolov.
00:02:26
Speaker
Kolov. Kolov. couple of pronounced c co of colors Colerve. so probably Who knows? These are space names. They're not even... Then there's the NavBot 337 Alt 66. NavBot. Play...
00:02:38
Speaker
and then there's the navbot three seven three three seven allt six six so navbot play a diwanda wise so probably kind of the idea of the know the black chick answers the space phone the joke from uh star trek being lieutenant uhura um and then labibi is anna conkle and so they were a fun group yes uh labibi is like she's the dealt fall survivor and i have to say like as somebody who works with children and survived the little boo boo craze 2025 the name really was triggering for me i was like what what's happening right now it's too close i don't like it and
00:03:26
Speaker
Yeah, she did a great job. She's the person who last episode I was referring to as being really weird, talking about sec units, genitalia and stuff. She's a great actress because I like hated every second that she was on screen because she yeah made me deeply uncomfortable, which is a testament to her acting ability. So cheers for Anna Conkle for nailing her role. um i hated every second of it, but great job for that. That is the sign of a good actor when you and they make you feel things, right? so Yeah. There you go.
00:03:57
Speaker
All right. So. I thought that these, sorry, I thought that these characters, um I thought that these are really fun cameos. I think everybody did a really good job really um goofing it up. Like they were all over the top because it's supposed to be a really silly over the top, um you know, Star Trek type show. Not that Star Trek is over the top. right it was Yes. it was Star Trek was a soap opera. Right.
00:04:25
Speaker
Sanctuary. Yeah. And so to see these characters, you know, especially like John Cho, who's actually like in a lot of serious roles, um you know, Jack McBrayer is actually more of a comedic role usually. So that made sense. But like, again, cart Clark Gregg, who's most well known for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.S. in our our field of reference. So to see those characters in such a silly role, I mean, they had to have so much fun filming this. Yeah.
00:04:53
Speaker
and to not even interact with like the main cast like you are just a show within a show it's just it's a lot of fun to see and again they did such a good job with it i was always wanting more of sanctuary moon so um yeah my hats off to all of those actors for making that such a fun little side quest i believe've i had like a vision and i had to double check john cho actually was in the 2009 and 2016 star trek films Yeah. um So I'm sure this was just like coming home for him. He just was like, oh, yeah, I can do this again. This is fun. um So, yeah, I was like, wait a second.
00:05:31
Speaker
so And then um Cowboy Bebop. He was in. Yes. Also. So um that's also kind of spacey, right? Aren't they in space? It's a kind of an alternate world. but Yeah, use he does space its space stuff. Yeah.
00:05:47
Speaker
OK. Space cowboy. Something. Yeah. Yeah, they've got me hooked. They could totally do a show and I would watch it. I'm hooked on say Sanctuary Moon. I'd love to watch that. Same. it was just really fun. I know we we said it, or at least I said it last week in the last episode. um But it was really, there's a lot of ways to like bring lightness and levity and ease tension in serious moments in the show. And I really liked this method of it because it it was really important to sec units
00:06:23
Speaker
it was something he was very passionate about. um When we were watching it, we were like, I love how the only time he really is showing personality is when he's being a fan boy for like, don't talk bad about my show. Like this is my show. um So that was a really fun way to like add something to the show that the book like couldn't really give us. So I really liked those additions.
Parallels Between 'Sanctuary Moon' and Murderbot's Journey
00:06:48
Speaker
And the whole arc of Sanctuary Moon was the captain falling in love with the nav bot. And so the fact that a human was falling in love with a sick bot for all intents and purposes um showed him that he, like the feelings that where he was having for these humans weren't like Like, they were something to pay attention to. And, like, it was okay for him to have, like, not want these humans to get hurt. And, like, he did want to protect these humans, whereas in the beginning, um he was very much not interested in these humans. So, um yeah, I thought the kind of, like, parallels between the show and what we are actually watching were interesting. Mm-hmm.
00:07:40
Speaker
it helped it's been like It's kind of like people watching a TV to learn a language and things like that a little bit. It's like he's learning emotions from yes his soap operas. He's learning to be human more so.
00:07:53
Speaker
And so that was fun. But otherwise, we can get into the episodes and talk more. I know that there'll be times when the show will, the rise and fall of Sanctuary Moon will come back into his storyline here too. know there's a couple times it's even referenced in-universe. So let's get into episode six, Command Feed.
00:08:13
Speaker
a critical setback sends the team into a spiral. ah Menta rolls the dice on a tricky procedure and Labibi changes her tunes.
00:08:24
Speaker
this week on yeah so this is where we get the twist of uh labibi you know showing her showing her cards and admitting that she's not a survivor from dealtfall she's a emissary of some other entity this so while she's you know pulling her gun out and pointing and shooting garathan in the leg and like you know holding the team hostage Mensa and Sec Unit are out on the hopper which is like their little it's like a helicopter chopper transport thing um and they're discussing like well why would Delphal be attacked and so they're kind of coming to the conclusion that there's a third party on this planet you know
00:09:09
Speaker
that is causing all of these problems at the same time that that third party is revealing itself to the team back at home in the habitat. um So i I love that like dramatic irony of everybody kind of figuring things out at the same time in different ways.
00:09:23
Speaker
um And I really loved, it felt a lot like the scene in Indiana Jones when the guy's like twirling the sword and Indy's just like, dude, get out of my face. And he shoots him. where he comes in, she's like, I'll shoot him if you move. Like, ah you know, she's trying to negotiate and murder bot. She's like, I don't want to hear from you anymore. You're done. Get out. And blows her head off. um And I literally, she was cheering out loud. She's like, yes, good. Like, these are people who are attacking you. They're taking over security units and like causing all these problems. Like, these are not good people. And the humans that you care about are in danger. Like,
00:10:01
Speaker
yeah, blow her head off. Like, why are we going to tolerate this kind of, you know, this danger? She's a threat. So eliminate the threat. So I was like, yeah, that makes sense to me.
00:10:12
Speaker
Especially, and again, especially a robot with that very black and white thinking where you, you know, there's no morality of this is a human life. And like, you know, that kind of feeling that, you know, that any of us would have where we see the humans having that feeling of like that she was a person, we shouldn't have killed her. He's like, nope, there was a threat. My job is to protect these humans. And she was threatening them, so she must be eliminated. So I appreciated that like directness from him.
Dramatic Twists and Humor in the Storyline
00:10:37
Speaker
And I don't know if we mentioned it in the last episode, but he's called a SEC unit because he's a security bot. like He's there for security. that um He calls himself Murderbot. And so the fact that like not only – does he care about these humans? But his job is to protect this team of humans. But with the additional emotion that's there that he's starting to care for these people, he his biological, or not biological, but his programming is still to protect them. So like she literally has a gun to this guy's head. His ah response is to just blow hers off.
00:11:17
Speaker
Yep. You can't negotiate with a robot. They're black and white. They have a job to do and they're going to it. So, you know, You don't get to make threats and that getting what's what's coming to you.
00:11:31
Speaker
Yeah, it was a fun little, uh, I mean, it definitely was like, oh my goodness, what is happening right now? What, you know, with the way the crew is responding and everything, it definitely was like, oh, I did not expect that to be the way this goes. I thought he'd have to spend some more time thinking about this, but no, no reason to think about it. It's a computer response.
00:11:49
Speaker
Yeah. So. that was the majority of this episode was dealing with that and all that the fallout emotionally that comes from that for the crew.
00:12:01
Speaker
Then in episode seven is complimentary species. Murder bot deals with fallout and with with fallout and detects a critical threat in hopes of evading danger. The team heads to a new locale full of surprises.
00:12:20
Speaker
Yeah, so like we said, they' everybody's now on the same page that there's a third party on the planet out to destroy them for some reason.
00:12:30
Speaker
And so they're like, we got to get out of here. like We got to find somewhere safe to kind of hide out and wait for the company to come back and save us slash figure out another plan to save ourselves. So they load up and they go and hide out in the woods and they are they think they're being attacked again by one of the monsters that you know came after bardwaj in the very first episode um but actually that monster is doing a mating ritual right on top of their transport um which is some of them are horrified and some of them are like whoa nature it's so cool and beautiful and magical i was more on the like oh my god like
00:13:16
Speaker
slightly grossed out side. But then they are discovered by the third party and they send a high level security unit from their team to come out. And then there's a fight and the humans keep getting in the way of Murderbot when he's trying to protect them. And they're like trying to throw rocks at the bad robot and it's hitting him in the head. And he's like, can you guys like stop, please? Like you're doing more harm than good at this point. um
00:13:47
Speaker
And then they check, they go, they're like, we have to go back because Dr. Garathan, who was shot by Labibi in the last episode, his wound is getting infected. He needs the med bay. So they have to go back and then they check the security footage and the third party team has gone to their habitat and they're like, okay, you know, we're here, you know, let's try to negotiate. And so there doesn't have to be any more violence. Come meet us here so we can talk things out basically. um And all of that, the animals mating and laying egg sacks didn't happen in the book, but them being attacked and then going and agreeing to go out and meet this third party and to try to negotiate did happen. So a little balance of 50-50 things that happened, things that didn't happen in the book. Yeah.
00:14:37
Speaker
Yeah. and I think it's either this one or the next one is where they have the little moment of him using some of the Sanctuary Moon ah and dialogue as part of his his fighting tactic is like trying to distract them. Well, i think it's in the next one. But the fact that that comes up in his real in real life for him and they're like, he's just quoting TV. Yeah, that's pretty fun in that.
00:15:01
Speaker
And so. Yeah, that's it was a good, it was a good, ah interesting episode with ah the biological part of the planet being part of the what they're there to study anyways. So these creatures that are in their mating ritual in the spot where they park their car isn't the creature's fault. So it's interesting the, the,
00:15:20
Speaker
way that the crew looks at that and says, no, we we need to let them be. We need to leave these eggs here until we can safely remove them and put them somewhere safe and all that. I thought that was a cool ah visual to see them treating it with respect. And so, you know, these people are actually the team we care about and not going to just blast away at them, which is what it seems like the other crews were fine with doing.
00:15:43
Speaker
Yeah.
00:15:46
Speaker
All right. Number eight is for an object. The preservation ox receives a dispatch from a rival group.
00:15:58
Speaker
Garthin taps into Murderbot's bloody past. so i got my details a little mixed to what happens in which episode um this is where they get the message but at the same time this is where garathan and murder bot kind of like hook up like link to each other because grafin is what they call an augmented human so he has like a input port where he can like download data and like connect to like the they call it the hub system and the security feeds like all of that kind of stuff that sec unit has access to dr garathan can access as well um being an augmented human so they like connect they like plug into each other and connect to each other and then they can like feed each other data and so that that's a really interesting scene where like
00:16:50
Speaker
Murderbot like exposes personal private details about Garathan from his brain and then Garathan exposes that Murderbot calls himself Murderbot and that he has a violent past of harming previous clients.
00:17:09
Speaker
So then the team has to like figure out how to deal with that and what's next for them as a team. Because the whole time they've been debating, can we trust this sec unit or not? Is he trying to protect us? Is he trying to sabotage us? And I think this is the episode where they figure out, or where Dr. Grathen exposes the fact that the governor module has been hacked. And so the whole time Murderbot has not been...
00:17:34
Speaker
under the control of the his programming and he's been able to make his own decisions and choose how to act he hasn't had to keep them safe and he's been choosing to keep them safe um but he still like could choose to harm them at any point and so the team of humans has to kind of wrestle with like can we trust him or not and are we safe with him or not and what to do next
00:17:57
Speaker
Which is basically just human nature. I mean, any one of us could be the violent one that doesn't that isn't actually controlled by anybody in our other than our own minds. So that makes him more human than anything else in the show almost.
00:18:10
Speaker
Yeah, i'll a little bit.
Backstory and Character Development
00:18:11
Speaker
Yeah, but I really liked how a lot a lot of that and a lot of the lines that came in that scene were pulled directly from ah from the book. And then I liked the little bit that they added of like Garaffen like having feelings for Mensa.
00:18:26
Speaker
And like, because I believe that was different from the book. Yeah, I don't think there were any like relationships in the book. Yeah, it's from Murderbot's perspective and he doesn't care about that stuff. So we weren't supposed to care about that stuff. Right. So, yeah. the fact that Garathan has these feelings for Dr. Mensah and then we learn his backstory and i'm like, oh, of course he is in love with her. Like she, you know, saved his life in a lot of ways because he talks about how previously he was, um,
00:18:57
Speaker
purposely addicted to drugs by the company, like the company, the corporate entity. And he was, you know, in a dark place and he was considering, you know, self-harm and like a permanent end to himself. um And Dr. Mensah convinced him basically to not do that. And so and his life is better he's alive and his life is better now for it so all of that we find out I think a little bit later and I think the beginning of the next episode we get like a flashback scene of that um but the fact that he loves her and he's like keeping it a secret and Murderbot like kind of exposes him it makes it like when he exposes Murderbot it kind of makes sense that he's like well you exposed my secret so now I'm gonna expose yours at the same time
00:19:48
Speaker
Definitely. It definitely shows the emotional side that Gareth has versus versus what a robot would have, even though they both are starting or reacting to similarly. It's definitely has it a a level of um parallel there of human versus robot.
00:20:10
Speaker
Yeah, for sure. All right. Episode nine is all systems read. Murderbot calls the shots at a critical rendezvous.
00:20:24
Speaker
Gareth and Pin Lee piece together a plan and Meza makes her own move. ah Yeah, this is another section that's pretty spot on with the book, the plan that they come up with to go and negotiate with this third party who they discover that their name is Gray Chris.
00:20:42
Speaker
um It's just another like company who's on the planet trying to do research or take the alien remnants. And so they Agree to go and meet.
00:20:54
Speaker
And Sec Unit it has this plan based on an episode of Sailor Moon. or a soat sailor moon I've been so good the whole time. Sanctuary Moon. Based on an episode Sanctuary Moon to trick them to send off the emergency beacon to get help from the company to come and pick them up. um while also like destroying all of the great Chris people at the same time and keeping his team safe. So he's got a, there's all these different moving parts where sec unit goes and Dr. Mensa's over here and Garathan and Pinley are here. And then everybody else is back in the habitat. There's a lot of moving pieces and communications. um And yeah,
00:21:36
Speaker
you know Long story short, it works. The plan works. There's some twists and turns. He doesn't tell the humans the full plan um because he doesn't trust them to like just go with it. like He needs their them to just go with the plan and that he knows they won't. and So he he he was like, I just won't tell him We'll just go with it. and But it all works out. he saves Dr. Mensah's life. They save his.
00:22:01
Speaker
And that's kind of where the episode ends is he passes out. He thinks he's going to die having saved Dr. Mensah's life. And then they that's the end of the episode. You know, you've probably seen the Sailor Moon as well. So, you know, I'm sure of the plan could have came from that. yeah The ancient texts. Right. um If I went to war, that'd probably be the same as I'd probably just pull all my ideas from TV shows and, they you know, they'd work. Yeah.
00:22:31
Speaker
So it was ah it was a cool episode of watching them start to work together and grow as a team to figure out how to get everybody safe and figure how to get past all this. And this is the episode, I think, where the Grey Chris team recognizes that he's quoting Sanctuary Moon yeah and calls him out for for like everything being... He's like, I know it's from Sanctuary Moon. like that's And then they all start talking about how it's a terrible show and he gets offended because it's the best show ever. um
00:23:04
Speaker
which again, like a life or death situation and somehow I'm still like chuckling and laughing because they're arguing about the quality of this Soap opera. like Absolutely. How a Star Trek person would react if someone started badmouthing their Star Trek in that situation. So. And that's what I was talking about. Like the comedic relief in the show is really good. um i really like all of it. It's just a really fun show.
00:23:30
Speaker
I agree.
Themes of Autonomy and Freedom
00:23:31
Speaker
Then we get to the last episode, an episode 10, the perimeter. At the corporation rim, the preservation ox presents a radical request.
00:23:43
Speaker
you So the whole time, throughout all the mystery and like figuring out what's going on the team the humans have been talking about basically like the sentientity of Sec Unit.
00:23:58
Speaker
Is he a person? Is he not a person? They call him It, but then they... like it has feelings, it has, it can make choices, it has chosen to do X, Y, and Z. And so they've been like, and then on their planet, on their like commune from Preservation Alliance, they treat,
00:24:19
Speaker
of they call him he calls himself a construct or robots they treat them just like as people they have freedom and rights and all of that and so the big demand that they make of the corporation is that they want to basically buy sec unit so that he's free of the corporation and he of the company and he can go with them to their planet and be free and live in a commune and like do whatever he wants um And I thought that that was really interesting because like they didn't ask him if that's what he wanted.
00:24:54
Speaker
They're just assuming and choosing for him that, you know, working for the company is is not good and not a life and so you should come with us. And I think like they, I think they definitely had noble intentions because if the company knew that his governor module was hacked, he would be melted down and destroyed and, you know, killed essentially. And so they're trying to protect him from that fate. He doesn't want that fate either.
00:25:17
Speaker
But they didn't ask him, do you want to come with us? Or do you want us to just buy basically buy your freedom and then let you go? um And so like one of the ending lines of the show basically is like, I don't know what I want, but I know I don't want anyone to tell me what I want. I want to like figure it out on my own. And so he you know his freedom is bought. He is able to do whatever he wants and he chooses to leave them and go off into the world on his own as a rogue robot and a murder bot, a sec unit, a something. He's just a unit now and he can go and figure out what he wants and what he cares about or doesn't care about. And I think that's a really interesting place to leave this character and a robot who has been programmed to do certain things.
00:26:06
Speaker
Now that they're free of the programming in a lot of ways, what is he going to do next? Where is he going to go? What is he going to choose to do with his time? Like he could just stand in one spot and watch Sanctuary Moon forever, but he could have done that on their commune planet. And he was like, no, I don't want to go there. I want to do something else. So, um, it left off in a really interesting place where, yes, I'll read the next book. Yes. I want to see the next season of the show when it comes out. Um,
00:26:33
Speaker
And I thought it was a very really hopeful ending while still presenting a lot of um ethical and moral questions. I like that both the book and the show was him like leaving a message.
00:26:48
Speaker
for Mensa and like because he did care enough not to just skedaddle and sneak away like he cared enough like he knew that they wouldn't want him to leave but he cared enough to let them know what he was doing and where where he was going It's an interesting dilemma of freeing someone and and with his kind of programming and what that means for the world and with his past being that he had that issue with that we find out on the show where he killed a bunch of his prep past crew, he's got demons as well that he doesn't remember all of. Yeah.
00:27:28
Speaker
That's a question he has to deal with in his own life, too. So now that he's got the time to do that, he probably will pursue some of that, I assume, based off seeing this. And to just for his own peace of mind, he wants to know, who am I in some ways? That's the storyline that all humans have at that point, even when we're figuring out who we want to be overall. Mm-hmm.
00:27:52
Speaker
I think there was more in this at the rim here of Garrothin as well. He had a little bit of a more of his realization and coming to grips with ah what he is and what he wants to be. And with whether that's with ah I think was it more of a the Mesa relationship there or was that more? I can't remember how that went, but I know he had some more stuff at the rim here.
00:28:15
Speaker
A lot of what happens in this episode isn't explained in the book because the book is from Murderbot's point of view. So like the fact that he already in the show in this episode, his like memory database has already been wiped. He's already been reprogrammed governor module reinstalled and he's sent back out to work as a security unit. And then the team decide to legally attack the company and garathan goes and makes an old contact to re-download all of that memory from this last trip that he was on and give those memories and that freedom that you know that hacked governor module back to security unit after he'd already been wiped all of that like
00:29:06
Speaker
may have happened in the book, but because it's Murderbot's POV, he just wakes up again. And all of a sudden he's like, what's going on? Where am I? And then they say, hey, you're free. We bought your contract. Like you can, you can come home with us. Like everything is great. And then he's like, nope. Bye. But again, like I really ah like this addition of all this background of seeing how much effort the humans went through to get him because like this as much as the as much as our world is a corporate hellscape this world is even more of a corporate hellscape where you literally cannot do anything without the approval of the company
00:29:47
Speaker
And so they are like, we're willing to, like, in a lot of ways, possibly risk their lives, their livelihood, the safety of their planet to go after the company to get the security unit back online as he was and safe. And so I like that.
00:30:06
Speaker
like being able to see that dedication and that kind of effort that all of them put in, even the ones who were like, i don't know if we can trust him, like over the course of the events of the show and the book, he has proven himself that he didn't have to save any of their lives at any point. And he chose to over and over and over again. And so they, you know, he's part of the team, he's part of the family and they want to do right by him and save him. So I liked getting all of that like background and getting to actually see that happen as opposed to just being told that magically he got freed and he's fine.
00:30:41
Speaker
Yeah, it's a good story.
Conclusion and Future Stories
00:30:42
Speaker
And I think that ends it really well for leading us into another story and gives us a good conclusion to this story where he's free and figuring what he wants to do next.
00:30:53
Speaker
One thing I liked that the show did not include, if I'm remembering correctly, is that in the book, he got onto the um make ship because the ship's bot also like, or was like interested in Sanctuary Moon or something. Like, and he was like, I have all of these um like episodes that the ship could watch.
00:31:17
Speaker
They included that in the show. Yeah. Good. Yeah. Because that was just a fun little knot. Or in the second book, that ship becomes one of the bigger characters. That's that's the character. One of my favorite characters ship. Okay. so Fun. That's fun. Yeah. He's got a name for him and everything, but it's Ark or something. Yeah. what they That's an interesting moral dilemma as well. Cause like it has sentience or it can absorb media and say that it likes or doesn't like media, but it's a ship. Yeah.
00:31:48
Speaker
does it can does the ship consent to carrying and transporting people like like oh that's gonna hurt my brain we'll get there when we get there yeah well i'm excited to like dive into the next book because it was really interesting it is a really quick short read um so i'm interested to see if this show will continue to stick so closely to the books or if it's gonna kind of like diverge at all yeah i'd be curious so how it goes i little like when i read the first book i literally had to go through and read the second one right afterwards because i i do love that second one so where's he going i'm excited for you guys to read it yeah yeah so it'll be good all right well that's all for this week thanks for joining us and uh we'll see you next week on book watch bye
