2012-03-03 · Hank, Michael Aranda · watch on YouTube · Pop culture · personal update

Hank and Michael Aranda, newly moved to Missoula to work on SciShow and Crash Course, build a LEGO Millennium Falcon overnight, bag by bag, until it is finished at about 2 a.m.

What is said

00:00:00 — Hank introduces Michael Aranda; tonight they build the Millennium Falcon

  • ★★ The description says Michael Aranda recently moved to Missoula to help produce SciShow and Crash Course, and composed the video's music. — 00:00:00 · Michael Aranda, Missoula, Montana, SciShow, Crash Course
  • ★★ The description says Hank saw the Millennium Falcon set at Target and needed it; building took about four hours at night and the video four more hours. — 00:00:00 · Target Corporation
  • ★★ Hank introduces Michael Aranda and says they are putting together the Millennium Falcon today. — 00:00:00 · Michael Aranda

00:00:19 — Minifigures first (Han Solo), the price, an unnumbered bag, Lemon dislikes the noise

  • ★ Hank questions why the set has you build the people first, the most fun part, which he would save for last. (playful) — 00:00:19
  • ★ Hank notes the set was not cheap; it took a couple of guesses to guess its price. — 00:00:30

00:02:00 — Bag five: progress check, a broken blaster, why each new bag is hard again ('Cardigan! Madmartigan!')

  • ★ Hank observes that within each bag pieces get easier to find, then a new bag makes it hard again. (playful) — 00:02:12

00:02:33 — 2 a.m.: bag six, the finished Falcon, sign-off

  • ★★ Hank says it is now 2 a.m., Michael has finished his Mountain Dew, and the Falcon now looks like the Millennium Falcon. — 00:02:33 · Michael Aranda
  • ★★ Hank announces the Millennium Falcon is finished. — 00:02:56

Humor (significant)

  • Building the minifigures first, Hank finds hair and legs but no heads. — 00:00:24 > «Han Solo is complete!»
  • Hank finds pastel pieces and asks Michael what they taste like. — 00:01:29 > «Like Reese's....pieces, but...harder.»
  • Mid-build, Michael Aranda abruptly tells Hank to be careful, then gives his reason. — 00:01:50 > «I dropped an egg in my cleavage.»
  • Starting a new bag makes finding pieces hard again, and Hank riffs on the rhyme. — 00:02:19 > «It's hard again! Cardigan! Madmartigan!! Tartigrade!»
